If the goal of our existence is reunification with God, our goal in life should be to receive the Holy Spirit (God).
His eternity was changed because God called him out of his ignorance and into the Light.

He had to walk a very dark road of atonement and trials to obtain his prize of reunification.
You would think that watching 23,000 perish in a day from sexual immorality would have been enough of a sign to heed properly.

Group ritual sex to honor demons must have looked like a proper hellish scene of debauchery and rebellion. You can’t say the devil hasn’t won a few rounds in this battle.
I don’t recommend placing your journal next to your potpourri steamer.
It is time to get clean.
I would just recommend not being boastful at all. God has seen the tragic history of pride and her victims.

God chooses whom he chooses because he’s really good at writing stories that people remember.
It is odd that both Jesus and Paul weren’t known to perform baptisms.

It makes you wonder why.
May we all live like virtuous Saints. Living out lives of sacrificial obedience as we serve God and creation.
You wonder if they ever realized how counterproductive it was to martyr the Saints. saints were getting upgraded and the tormentors were condemning themselves.
A centurion would have known exactly what would have happened to a roman soldier that professed allegiance to Jesus Christ.

He refused to be a party of debauchery and blasphemy, and instead embraced truth and bodily death.

He gave up everything here to refuse being a party to the lie.
“For I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city.”

They have been watching a long time it seems. Corinth was already stacked in the first century when Paul came through.
How many people did this jailer save by recounting this story to others throughout his life?

So many ripples.
You feel like you woke up in a shifted reality. Your mindset has changed so much that you see the old world just like it was, but now you can see the messages behind the messages.
It is staggering how God can pull your mind out of the temporal world and set you on the eternal mission of salvation for God’s kingdom.

You realize you will leave your body and all your possessions behind, so you focus on what benefits your soul instead.
We all need a Mercy Ship. It required and requires SOUL.
That must have been a lot of fun learning and acting out Biblical accounts.

It must have been great because they are all beaming.
I know very well how God feels about money being interwoven with God’s chosen and their mission.

God knows all the filthy decisions and compromises we make because of money, and also the influence of those that lord it over us.

God would not have given him the power even if Peter had tried.
Who has faith like this? Like Jesus, Saints, and Prophets, he is literally praying for the people violently killing him. We can only assume how nasty the mob comments were that were thrust at him also during this tormenting murder.

Divine ignorance breeds violence and spreads like a virus.
40 years Moses waited in Midian before he was called to return to Egypt to save the Jews.

God’s timelines are very frustrating to a generation of people used to instant gratification.

Biblical stories don’t occur over days and weeks.
That must have been the most spiritually on fire community you could imagine. Common possessions in a world built on materialism and egotistical pleasure chasing?
I wasn’t familiar with the term specifically from Biblical reference, but the overall testing process is seen many times throughout the Bible.

There is a crushing, a rejection, and a feeling of abandonment that must happen to burn and purify your soul. You must walk by faith and perseverance.
Even with all his abilities, which came from God, he still had a betrayal waiting on him.

Why? So that the Scriptures would be fulfilled. God takes his writings very seriously.
His blood and flesh metaphors scared people even in the first century.
Being psychic probably makes it easier to recruit.
