Grace N Truth

THE CROSS - Des Walter I want to share with you today on the subject of the "Cross," because I think it is probably the most misunderstood aspect of the Christian faith. So I want to by-pass the traditional concepts that are the product of the natural mind and present to you the TRUTH as seen from God’s point of view. We will begin in Hebrews, chapter 2, because we need to lay a clear foundation and discover how God thinks about things because the Prophet Isaiah said, "As far as the heavens are above the earth, so far are my thoughts above your thoughts." Have you ever thought about that? Here we have been living with our thoughts for so long, or thoughts we have received from others, that have formed the basis of our understanding about God. But you see, His thoughts are way above our thoughts. So today let’s put away our thoughts about the cross, and let God start to insert some of His thinking and then we may come up with an answer quite different to that which w

In religion I saw Jesus in a distances. Ohhhhhhhhh trust me I could not see the doctrine of trinity when it was presented to me. I could not understand how Jesus was God.

One blessed day the Jesus was revealed to me in such a way in that yes He was still in the distance and yet He was closer to me then a friend. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginn

 The Prodigal son ..... The irony of it! Sitting here listening to the Holy Spirit the prodigal son comes to my hEARt. See, so many use him as an example of how one who was saved returns back home after being back slidden. Ohhhhhhh the irony of it indeed. Let us first look at the son who did not leave the Father's house. But the 'good' son! Ahhhhhhh yes we are going to look at this 'good' son through the eye of the Spirit and undersand it by seeing the mind of the knowledge of good and evil at work within the good son. When the prodigal son came home the son that never left said unto the Father in a nut shell "I am your deserving son who stayed home and obeyed all of your commands, but you never gave me the royal treatment you lavished on your undeserving younger son. You should have made him pay for his shameful misconduct before letting him into our home." MY ... MY .... MY! How the knowledge of good and evil is on display here. For the son that stayed h
