" I will lead the blind along an unfamiliar way; I will guide them down paths they have never traveled. I will turn the darkness in front of them into light, and level out the rough ground. This is what I will do for them.

welcome and God Bless you! Foundations of Pentecostal Theology is on my bookshelf, I imagine we've got a lot of common theology. There's only a handful of us that post from time to time, but like you said it's good to know that there's other Christians who share in a similar conviction. -so feel free to post and contribute, and again welcome and God bless!
Hi, I'm new here, BOL, just wondering if there are any MN people involved. I have been baptized with fire - a reality even the catholics argue about in terms of meaning, & of water according to John's baptism. I grew up a Pentecostal fundamentalist-I'm sad to say, but I found out the meaning thanks to music, it is an undeniable fact once one is baptized with fire that the scriptures make perfect sense. I am happy to find such an org. & I hope to find others that believe in a creator & do not deny his holy spirit.
they're trying to expand per se dui laws. They're just evil, perverse and murderous hearted people. They don't know truth or justice, they're just plain evil.
the new Drug Control Strategy for 2010 just came out today. I haven't had a chance to research it, but I'll bet they get the same moneys to cause us trouble.
They also have us bound from crying out as well. If we say we're being harassed (which you and I both know is happening), they say "they're crazy paranoid potheads", so that our allegations are disregarded.
so we don't have any other recourse but to trust that God is watching over us, and He's gonna carry us through the attacks on our lives, He won't let them put on us more than what we can bear.
We also trust and know our Victory is in Him- We already won this war, our matter just hasn't reached that point in motion yet. but in the end, we win. Victory is ours and our oppressors will be afflicted the same way they afflict us for eternity.
they will give answer directly to God for all the things they do to try and ruin our lives.
I'll keep you lifted up in prayer. Don't let them convince you you're nuts, they're harassing you just like they're doing to me. Just stay strong and know that God is able to make you stand.
I don't have a phone anymore, and all my belongings are in my car.
be wise as a serpent, and harmless as a dove. the ONDCP and the National Guard each have a budget to harass known pot smokers and activists. They are skilled in slander and entrapment.
they'll slander you around your support, start a vicious rumor that your friends overhear, and do it two or three times so that they start to think there's some truth to it. they'll do that stuff around your friends, your employer, family, preachers and parishoners, anyone who might be inclined to assist you or help you in life.
their actions are exactly what theology textbooks describe demons doing.
-and this is all in the National Drug Control Strategy budget. It's published, they have funds to slander and harass us
harassment! I'm presently being tormented by some regulators. You try to rescue one friend out of witchcraft, and they start the occasional driveby. Try to rescue two, and they start stalking your house. Try to rescue three, and they TRY to destroy your mind.
Prayer! I need prayer, and these "neighbors" of mine need blessing.
well, the lots are all landlocked with no right of way, it looks like a plat map for Sodom. I'll bet the rackets fly in the real estate deals there. So I'll keep looking.
I know my home is in the Kingdom. For the time being, it would be nice to find a place where I can sit down without having to pay someone, just for living and being, just for taking up space. But I'm thinking that is a misguided hope; We don't get a place to lay our heads here. Probably cause we'd get too comfortable
