Sketchin lately, trying to make Christian ponies

Nice stuff

>>373672
Thanks! It's been a while since drawing poners

Any Christians on here?

>>373677
Cool art! Very cute.
Um, there are a few threads like >>372825 → dedicated to christianity, just saying.
Is it advisable to go to church even if you know they are owned by jews? Do I have to build my own house of god?

>>373683
Okay to be fair, the example I posted is a writefag thread...

>>373683
I haven't been able to find a church because of deliverance issues and because of truth issues. Jesus taught us to keep the law of Moses, for example, and it's repeated in the new testament in several places as well

>>373683
"Salvation is from the Jews"
t. Jesus

We have to go to fully what Jesus taught, which is the Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus taught for us to become disciples, which is a huge cost (costs our whole lives and all we own), and that if we do, we will get very large inheritance in the kingdom of heaven. Jesus also taught that we should hear the Word of God and do it, which was only all the old testament scripture at the time, which is in total agreement that we should repent and obey Yahweh's commandments and seek Him with all our hearts. Jesus also said in Matthew 5:18-19 that the law won't pass away until heaven and earth do, and that our eternal rewards are heavily linked to whether we keep and teach the commands of God or if we disobey and teach others to

>>373686
Hold on there. While yes you do keep the commandments as the intent behind them is.
Love God with all your heart, mind and soul.
Love one another as you would yourselves. The story of the good samaritan and who is a good neighbor further describes the point.
With being baptized (submerged) in God's spirit, His ghost as The Comforter is God too, He writes the Laws on your heart.
He teaches us all things.

>>373688
You can't love the Father and disobey the physical commandments at the same time
1 John 5:3
"For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome"

>>373689
That's the point.

1 John 3:4-10
"Everyone who does sin also does lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. And you know that He was manifested in order to take away sins, and in Him there is no sin. No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or has come to know Him. Little children, let no one deceive you. The one who does righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous. The one who does sin is of the devil, because the devil sins from the beginning. The Son of God was manifested for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil. Everyone who has been born of God does not sin, because His seed abides in Him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God. By this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifested; everyone who does not do righteousness is not of God, as well as the one who does not love his brother."

So, we are required to do righteousness. So what is righteousness, according to Scripture?

Psalm 119:172
Let my tongue answer with Your word, for all Your commandments are righteous.

The Holy Spirit leads us into all truth (John 16:3) and convicts the world concerning righteousness (John 16:8). So what is truth and righteousness, according to Scripture?

Psalm 119:142
Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and Your law is truth

Psalm 119:151
Near are you, O Yahweh, and all Your commandments are truth.

Psalm 119:160
The sum of your word is truth, and every one of your righteous judgements is everlasting.

Deuteronomy 4:8
Or what great nation is there that has statutes and judgements as righteous as this whole law which I am setting before you today?

>>373690
I don't understand what you're meaning

>>373692
Did you ask The Holy Spirit or Jesus or Our Father?

>>373693
Are you suggesting that the Holy Spirit leads us according to a different law than the commandments of Yahweh?

>>373694
No, what I'm saying is did you ask them?

>>373695
I'm asking (You)

>>373696
Okay, did you recieve The Holy Ghost by works of the law, or by hearing with faith?
It's by the hearing with faith you recieve Him.
The law shows us to Jesus as nobody is justified by the law for all are cursed who break it.
You are who Jesus called friend and invited you to be family with as well.

Galatians 3
King James Version
3 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?

2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?

4 Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.

5 He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.

7 Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.

8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.

9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

12 And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.

16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.

18 For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

19 Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

20 Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.

21 Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.

22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

23 But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.

24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.

26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

>>373697
And yet, on judgement day, what will we be judged by?

Rev 22:12
Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according to his work

Matthew 5:19-20
For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished. Whoever then anules the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Note that this indicates eternal rewards and not justification here. An enormous swing on your eternal rewards based on if you obey God's commandments or if you choose to disobey them and teach others to disobey them

I go so far as to say, if Paul indeed teaches that obeying the Law does not matter, then Paul is falling under Jesus' word there, meaning Paul would be least in the kingdom of heaven.

But I don't see Paul as saying that. In Romans he concludes often that we should still not sin. Notice in Galatians Paul is speaking on justification, that it is impossible to earn salvation, which is true. But Paul also speaks much on sanctification, which necessarily requires obedience to the physical commandments. Paul even "walked orderly, keeping the Law" (Acts 21:24)

If obedience to Scripture is no longer required, then why did Jesus so often preach "Repent"? If we only place faith and believe and that's all, then why repent, why the need? And what to repent from if the law is wiped out and there is no definition of sin anymore?

>>373699
When you follow God, The Holy Ghost, Jesus and Father you won't sin.
He won't lead you to sin.
That's how it works.
God, puts it in your heart and when you walk with Him you won't sin His seed is in your heart.
Should you go and stray? No, but people aren't Jesus but He's helping us.
>All the churches around me are full of rule breaking faggots.
Yeah that's why you need to walk with Him so you're where you need/ought to be, doing what you need/ought to do.
Maybe His plan for you is to revitalize them to be closer with God, or maybe it's something else, but you won't know unless you ask God.
When you read His words with The Holy Ghost He fills you in He expands and deepens and broadens, He teaches you and comforts.
I don't think there's anything else quite like that.
For many they don't reach out to Him.
They do their own thing and they suffer for it.

>>373700
Scripture does say we are to be perfect as the Father is perfect. Jesus also said that if a brother continues in unrepentant sin, consider him an outsider. How is there fellowship if the denominations willingly break huge portions of Scripture and don't care about what Jesus says?

Walking by the Holy Spirit is important. Sometimes I have missed the leading of the Holy Spirit for years because everyone i knew in the faith told me X sin doesnt matter, while the Holy Spirit was very quiet and was letting scripture speak for itself. Took years until I took scripture at its word and obeyed, then the leading of the Holy Spirit was much stronger in that area

>Catholic pinkie
Only slightly less pagan than witchcraft ponies

>>373701
Why are you asking me?
You are made perfect in faith, working with Him.
You become the good Samaritan.
But He is there for everything if you let Him.
>Should I sin?
No.
You ask God to continuously infuse you with His Holy Ghost.
You ask our chief priest Jesus, Lord and Savior and Friend and Family.
It's child like.
It's faith in Him.
He is with you right now. You can ask Him so you will always hear Him.
Because when you ask you will recieve.
You can and should rest in Him.
Faith in Him counts as righteousness and will be credited to you.
He loves you and He'll talk with you, you're His friend and family. He talked with Moses right at his tent, and on the mountain and Moses and God talked with each other.
And you have a greater relationship with God than Moses, He wants to talk and be with you in all things.
The reason He tends to use a small still voice is so you have the choice to either ignore or listen. Because He cares.

I have heard people stretch "resting in Christ" to an absurd degree, where Jesus finished all work on the cross and so we dont have to do anything, but somehow we will mature and bear fruit eventually. and when I tried out that doctrine, I slacked on spiritual discipline and caught consequences. Then I realized what it says in revelation 14:13, that our rest from our labors is when we die or when Christ comes back. When I think about it, Jesus said a lot to the seven churches in revelation about "he who overcomes", signifying not just passive complacency resting but rather active service.

I agree that it's all faith. I can't do anything without Jesus and I can't be close to Jesus without faith and action on that faith. I'm just saying I keep coming across this demonic doctrine version of resting in Christ or that Christ is our Sabbath rest. It made me fall asleep rather than stay awake like Jesus instructs.

Hearing Jesus talk is actually unnecessary for relationship with Him in truth. He said those who have and obey His commands are the ones who love Him, and that those who do that will be loved by the Father and Jesus will manifest Himself to him (this is somewhere in John 14-16)

There are a multitude of false spirits who are eager to talk and mimic a voice or conviction or nudge that you expect to be God. Even ones which offer "fruit" by leading you to evangelize or to do other good things. But we are responsible to test the spirits, because talking with a spirit is a grave sin, an abomination to Yahweh (Deuteronomy 18:11). In the past I have had to cast out a "false Holy Spirit" and a "false Jesus spirit", both of which reacted noticably in me when I was commanding them out. I had gotten sucked into nudges that became "conviction" that led to occasional words, then eventually was a conversation. But it got dangerous and became apparent it was a false spirit

This is even with asking in faith for the Holy Spirit to speak with me more; somehow there was interception or a false first offer by the enemy which I was inexperienced to discern against.

Note that many conversational spirits will not identify themselves, but rather say "you have to just believe" or "you'll know by the fruit". This is an extreme red flag. Demand to know the name, because in Scripture it's full of "thus says Yahweh" when it's really God speaking.

This is not to suggest that we should not seek the Holy Spirit. I'm just saying that being a conversational friend with God is something extremely easy for the enemy to mimic. Same with some dream stuff

No wonder you're having trouble.
There's some good short hand names which God allows and recognizes. In truth He goes beyond that as well.
Okay easy name first for anybody because it's about meaning. He is I AM.
When you say I AM you can only exist because of Him and are declaring His name before yourself.
Here's a better one, ABBA which is Farther. Is notable because it's sounded out in Greek but it's a Hebrew word.

I'm warning you, the charismatic YouTubers like that talk about "friend of God" as a seeking of a spiritual presence, while ignoring scripture that defines the only way to be an actual friend of God. I was suckered in and I did meet a presence, and it did have benefits in my life, but I found it to be a false spirit and that I had been in adultery against Yah.

The way to be a friend of Christ:
John 15:14
"You are my friends if you do what I command you"

John 14:23-24
"Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our dwelling with him. He who does not love me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father's who sent Me."

So what are some of His words that are not taught nor kept today?
Matthew 5:18-19 -- keep and teach the commandments in the law of Moses
Matthew 23:1-3 -- do and keep the law of Moses
All the times of "go and sin no more" and "blessed are those who hear the Word of God and do it" (at a time when only the law, prophets, writings, and psalms were there, all of which command repentance and obedience to Yah's laws
Luke 14:25-33 -- no one can become Jesus' disciple who does not give up all his own posessions
All the times Jesus said you must give up your whole life for Him, deny yourself and take up your cross daily, hate your family and your own life, and not look back
Luke 12:33 sell your posessions and give it as charity (not to ministries)
Rich young ruler -- had built everything for the "kingdom" already. Had power, influence, money, property, connections, etc. Jesus said sell it all, give it to the poor. Not to ministries. Not to the "kingdom". To the poor. Jesus said "then follow me", after giving up everything

The people who speak the friend of God doctrine in the charismatic youtube space bring it to a point where when you spend enough time in the presence they describe, you graduate to words and then conversations, and you get prophecy. They experience prophecies that come true. But according to Deuteronomy 13, if they teach you to break the law of Moses, then even if the sign or wonder comes true, you must reject them, because Yahweh is testing you to see if you love Him in truth or if you seek experiences.

Deuteronomy 13:5 for example:
"But that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death because he has counseled rebellion against Yahweh your God who brought you from the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of slavery, to drive you from the way in which Yahweh your God commanded you to walk. So you shall purge the evil from among you."

Consider the warning of 2 Thessalonians 2:7-12
"For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. And then that lawless one will be revealed--whom the Lord Jesus will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring an end to by His coming--whose coming is in accord with the working of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders, and with all the deception of unrighteousness for those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved. And for this reason God sends upon them a deluding influence so that they will believe what is false, in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth, but took pleasure in unrighteousness."

So my issue with the "friend of God" doctrine popularly presented and joined with prophetic giftings, is that it's disregarding Jesus and the Father's commandments directly and massively, and yet claiming you get to be a friend and experience close and intimate conversation and friendship, while you are choosing yo flagrantly disobey Jesus and the Father and pretend like most scripture doesn't exist.

Baffling to me. But I got sucked into it for a time too, so I can't judge. Deceptions be stronk sometimes

Jesus is the vine.

Where is The Holy Ghost?
How does one have fruit?

John 7 LSB
37 Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink. 38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.’” 39 But this He spoke of the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were going to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

These are the fruits of the spirit.
This is what Jesus commands.

But here is a vital parable and I missed it often. Actually every time I've read it. Every single time I missed until now.
So read carefully. Very very carefully.
Matthew 13
King James Version

24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.

37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;

38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;

39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;

42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

spirits be mirroring

Did you read Hebrews?
The Old Covent is obsolete.
We are in the New Covent and it's better.
Jesus has made us adequate to be servants of the New Convent, not of the letter but of the spirit.
Sin is not master over us, we're not under the Law but under grace.
Perfect Love removes all fear. If you live in fear, confusion, dismay, anger, frustration or any of those not of God, return to Him.
It's not your faith, you don't have it nobody does. It's God's faith extended to you.
With Him inside with joy, love, lovingkindness, hope and bold faith we do it because we say yes to His Spirit.
In psalms cease striving and know God. He's working, He'll have you be more like His Son.
>But we still have to do these things.
How it's done matters, we shouldn't try to mimic the pharisees nor the world or the flesh, we call out to God as the flesh is dead the spirit lives your spirit and God's Holy Ghost doing what the spirit desires which is what God wants.
>I've been told to ignore sin, I know they're wrong, so I'm going really into legalism instead.
It's about Him not dead things it's about the living spirit. He's the Living God.
>friend of God doctrine, where you graduate to words to conversations to prophecy.
That's wrong, you do nothing. Because it's not you it's The Holy Ghost.
You're the salt the seasoning, the means for others to also taste what God is cooking. So you have to be like Mary sitting at His feet getting to know the master in His house, soaking in Him. Martha tried working and working and working what did Jesus say? Did He say go work more and take Mary with you?
The Holy Ghost with His written word will help you.
He'll help and correct those who claim that sinning is how people should be.
The fruit of the Holy Ghost is supernatural.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.
It's not evangelism that's work using your strength not God's.
The only one who brings those that are dead to even be able to be brought near is God, is His Holy Ghost.
He wants to do that with you.
He wants to do that with everyone.
