Juli, Thank you for your faithfulness to grow and share Gods word.

Question: how do you confront doubt and unbelief when your 5 senses attempt to convince you Gods word isn't working...without getting into works righteousness? Or when it feels like I have to keep saying scriptures, feeling like I have to make enough "deposits" in my heavenly account before God will answer me.

I keep wanting to see everything as a finished work because of the blood of Jesus Christ. Each time I see myself going down this path I say aloud there's no condemnation because I'm in Christ Jesus & say a promise from Gods word about whatever situation I'm facing & thank Jesus for the finished work.

I really want a right Godly balance where I believe I receive when I pray and remain in thanksgiving while it manifests in the natural.

Thank you kindly,
Kasmin

 Hello Kasmin,

Great question, sometimes it does seem like the things we are believing for and praying about go unanswered but there are some simple and amazing truths to hold onto during this process...

Juli,

I read in the Q&A section about your answer to the question, why didn't Jesus know the hour of his return. (Read Q&A Here) Your answer was that Jesus emptied himself of his equality with God. If Jesus did this then he could not have been God. IF you are God and then stop being God then you are no longer God. The orginal trinity doctrine states that at no time did Jesus ever cease being God, would not your explanation violate the trinity doctrine? Either you are God or you are not. This idea of a trinity, I must confess, makes no sense to me at all and it causes so many problems and provides no clear answers, in short it causes confusion. I want to know God but the trinity says I can't yet God in the scripture says that He wants us to know Him. It seems that all the churches say there is a God but do not define Him the same way.

Hello Coni,

Blessings in the name of Jesus!

Hey Juli,

I have a questions I am wondering if you can help me out with. What was the purpose of circumcision marking God's people as Jews? I understand it was part of the law and I found the excerpt that it was commanded in Genesis 17:11 "You are to undergo circumcision, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and you." But my question is why was that or why did God choose this as the sign of the covenant between them. The question comes from my studying in Ephesians as he references circumcision. So if you have any insight to these things I would really appreciate it. Thanks Juli!

Hey Eric,

I'd love to share some insight into this...

Dear Madam,

I have been spiritually enlightened and blessed by reading out the expository teaching of the scriptures in your blog. May God bless you abundantly with all his riches and sure do enlighten us with your teaching.

The question which I have in my mind for a long time is whether speaking in-tongues, alone is the evidence that we have the Holy spirit inside of us? I got baptized but still I don't speak-in tongues but in scriptures where ever water baptism took place it is evident that they started speaking in-tongues(holy spirit came upon them) ......please explain !!!!

Thank you, Abraham.

Hello Abraham,

Thank you for the kind words about the blog!

Hi Juli!

My name is Gisella and it was such a huge blessing to come to your page today. I came to know the Lord about two years ago. Also, I was reading through your blog and I feel I could relate so much to what you were saying. When you broke down your mission via Jeremiah 1, it was so encouraging. I can be fearful of speaking God's truth in boldness because I fear I will be rejected and then I'll doubt what God told me to do. I really need to ask God to help me in this area.

I know God so badly wants to speak through me, but often times I hold back and wait for the perfect timing. This is usually with my family though. Sometimes I feel like if I don't share the Gospel perfectly, I've failed at my responsibility. Also, I really feel led to start a a video blog! so it's awesome that you have one :)

Also, what does it mean for our hearts to condemn us?

May God's love, peace and joy be over your day!

by His grace,
Gisella
