“I was taken in the Spirit to the burning bush on Mount Horeb, Moses' "first ascension," and allowed to witness the encounter he had with the Lord there. Throughout the visitation, I was enabled to know and feel the thoughts and emotions of Moses' inner being. ... There was a Holy Narrator beside me who helped me understand what I saw and heard, and he made references to relevant passages of Scripture. There were other Biblical figures also present - Joshua, Samuel, David, and even the Lord Jesus were there.” KnowsFeelsFirstsMadeSpiritJesusEmotionLordTakenSawsHeardFiguresHolyScriptureWitnessBurningEncountersPassagesRelevantBiblicalMosesBeing ThereNarratorsAscensionThoughts And EmotionsVisitationBurning Bush Author:Bob Hartley
“[John Calvin's] treatment of the person and work of Christ, of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer, of prayer and liturgy, of the sacraments, and of the way in which we have an in-built sense of the divine that we suppress to our great sorrow - these are all immense contributions to Christian thought. The same could be said of his commentaries, which are still regularly consulted by biblical critics today.” WayPersonsSaidStillsTodayChristianSpiritChristPrayerDivineSorrowHolyBuiltCriticsBelieverHoly SpiritContributionTreatmentImmenseBiblicalSacramentsCommentaryLiturgy Author:Oliver D.

“For Christians ultimate reality is and can only be a personal, sovereign, holy, and loving God.

“We are sometimes told that we are not a biblical church. We are a biblical church. This wonderful testament of the Old World, this great and good Holy Bible is one of our standard works. We teach from it. We bear testimony of it. We read from it. It strengthens our testimony. And we add to that this great second witness, the Book of Mormon, the testament of the New World, for as the Bible says, "In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall [all things] be established" (2 Cor. 13:1).” WorldTwoBookSometimesThreeChurchTeachWonderfulBearsHolyStandardsMouthsAll ThingsAddWitnessNew WorldBiblicalTestamentTestimonyHoly BibleOld World Author:Gordon B.

“The religious school she went to, growing up, Ms. Wright said how all the girls had to wear a scarf tied to cover their ears at all times. Based on the biblical idea that the Virgin Mary became pregnant when the Holy Spirit whispered in her ear. The idea that ears were vaginas. That, hearing just one wrong idea, you lost your innocence.
