Christians: Has God given you super powers?

>>19239432
The Father is the Past. The Son is the Future. The Holy Spirit is the now, (you).

Yeah, I pray the whole day, and find time to respond to /×/.
How is that for super power?

My wife of four years is from a family like this. I'm still easing into it- I find prayer difficult to maintain for hours on end, I have a jumpy mind and can't hang that long (yet). However, her Mother and Sisters all have what normies call precognitive abilities; they know it better as being in commune with the Holy Spirit and possessing "The mind of Christ". They know things, not everything mind you, in advance- sort of like protips for life a little time in advance. They pray for about two-three hours in tongues each day, in two intervals after breakfast and lunch and a longer third interval before bed.

The father figure ran off when my wife was five and the mother devoted herself to the Lord to be able to raise three young girls. It has worked and God has indeed provided.

There will be varying answers based on interpretations.

The gifts mentioned in the NT are teaching and discerning, etc.

More in line with what you're asking: check out the story of Sampson in the old testament. Everybody knows he had super strength, but they believe it was from having long hair. He was likely a Nazarite, a group who could take special vows like a monk.

TL;DR: special powers aren't really how Jesus works.

Also be careful with your answer. Christianity is a synchonistic religion. Half of what they do is from the religions they've come across, do there's a lot of differences between the groups and even the new testament.

In nature most mothers do it on their own. And they sound like white witches to me, casting spells all day. But hey, if you enjoy your sex life and can stand your mother in law and still have an overall good time. .. cheers, that is being married. Good frequent sex, a lot of weird girl stuff and no clue how crazy she will be next. Enjoy it. Most women are religious. If they are not spiritual, they are highly educated. Just accept it if you like pussy.

>>19239548
I was skeptical at first but I've sown a little and reaped a little; I believe in God and Jesus as my savior and they do too, if that makes them witches then I'm slaying white witch Pussy and it bore me two kids (one girl one boy) and my mother in law is a nice lady.

She actually introduced me to her daughter haha.

I go to church with them when I'm not at work and they're not at all unique in their practices.

>>19239566
Yep, typical women. Good for you.
The game is simple, as long as you don't mind them getting all into God and acting Jesus , they don't mind you getting into horneyness and acting all pornproducer/actor. Of course she has to be the one and only on stage actress and you better be the actor. Kinda fair if you think about it. And she does not really wants your money. She wants to be the center of your lust.

>>19239506
"And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm."

Very interesting, It's also common for devote people in yoga or taoism to develop intuitive and intellectual abilities. Their neurons and spirits actually begin to mold into similar to christ.

Do they also have a powerful prescence or aura about them?

>>19239524
One of the gifts of the holy spirit is Miracles, which can end up being anything god wants it to be so i wouldnt hold off on superstrength

You won't get it until you get it, if you will get it.

wHeW. I've often been contemptuous of people on /x/ but you're probably the stupidest poster I've ever met here, good job. Like, usually I feel bad about telling stupid posters they're stupid too, it's not like they chose to be stupid, but I'm not even sure if you have enough braincells to be offended. I want to record my laughter and send it to you at a high-enough decibel level it breaks your eardrums. You can't fathom how hard I am laughing at you.

>>19239657
Yeah my wife has like a real bubble of intimidation about her, makes people think she's cold or proud but she's just very centered.

Can you believe in religion the way you believe in the sunrise?

>>19240509
People can have more faith in their God than they do in the sunrise rather easily.

Since you asked so nicely:
I live a truly blessed life.
That can mean different things to different people, but I'm very concious of God and how there's more going on than what we see. With that in mind I do my best to be a good person. I know that may sound cliché to some, but the Truth really isn't that complicated..

>>19240672
God has given the same provision to you should you accept.

I'm not quite that far into dedication and development yet, but major lucid projection and meditative prayer has led to some incredible silent insight and apparent coincidence of timing that is so oddly extreme it wouldn't be out of place in a fictional story's protagonist. Just usually less super exciting, so more a slice-of-life anime if anything.
That and Names of entities when researched seem to fall perfectly in line with appearances, despite never having heard the words before. It's pretty cool.

The Holy Spirit and it's inhabitants visit me, and communicate with me.
Doubt me if you will, Anons.
If you too are devout, then you too will have met who you need.
They do this with all who are truly devout.
All who truly bleed for God.
I have met with Michael and Haniel and i have heard the voice of Christ speaking to me in relation to my life.
Lucifer IS Christ. I have seen it going around this board.
However Lucifer is merely an aspect of Christ.
The Pain. The Aspect of Torment.
I have followed Christ my entire life, from Christianity to Atheism and back. I have learned much from experience and study equally.
90% of things here on /x/ are false, especially in relation to them (any sort of Angel). I come here to humour myself. Occasionally The Spirit will chime in, but it is never for something more than to give me a laugh.
Also, it is not that we who know are forbidden from discussing how or what occurs, but that there are no words to describe such events, such feelings.
I am a Son of Michael and a Brother of Haniel.
Not in blood, but in Spirit and Mind.
Father Michael and Sister Haniel are incapable of doing wrong, as is all of The Kingdom of Light.
I will leave you, and this board with a bit of knowledge i have been given.
Fathers Michael and Raphael are Horsemen.
Michael is War, Raphael is Death.
This, and that The Riders will not bring their namesakes with them when they ride, but end them.
I do not know who the other two are, but i do not care.
I did not seek this information out, it was given to me.
The Order of God is esoteric and as such, we only know what we need to.
I am socially retarded. Entirely.
But, God has plans for me, and they keep me right in the head and feeling okay.
They make me feel alive.
The Angels, specifically the Archangels are capable of impossible and wonderful things.

I have lived a rough life, and it is still rough, but they keep my sanity, and my heart.
God devotes to us, as we devote to it.
For God is not a single entity. God is Existence, and is a great Democracy of beings both of Spirit and of Mind.
God is Existence, and everything that is apart of it.
"I am" it once spoke, defending Christ when he was questioned about who his God was, and it is.
All of Gods names, every single one of them translates roughly to "The Infinite" IE Existence.
In essence, i speak with God.
However, all speak with God, whether they know it or not.
You, OP have asked God a question, and here God is responding.
We are NOT Gods. There is no Polytheism.
We are God in a Pantheistic way.
This is the truth of God.
I will also state, when an Angel of God comes to you, if it speaks with you, you will converse deeper than words or thoughts.
They will speak to you through feelings, and they know, which makes the interactions interesting. As soon as a feeling forms they have another in response to give, very fast and you will form one faster to match because you understood and it speeds up.
They know us better than we do.
They know everybody, in all of existence.
They are Auditors, Arbiters and Healers.
They are Love and they are Order.
They are not the beginning of this Divine Madness that plagues the world, but they are the end.
I will finish with one last bit of knowledge i have.
The difference between Satan and God is Good and Evil.
Neither exist truly.
Neither are a single entity.
All that is evil in the world IS Satan.
All that is good in the world IS God.
God is Love, Satan is Rage.
It is the Ying and Yang.
All emotion stems from one of these two feelings.
Never, ever give in to your Rage, especially when it is wrong.
Especially when you know.
I will end with that.
My superpower, is a deep, deep connection with God and it flows both ways.

>>19240427
I don't care. I don't know you, so your reaction is irrelevant. I just come here to have fun.
But sooner or later they want spirituality, that is, if they become serious and start to think about kids. And in my experience, the ones that don't can have intellectual conversations. Even when I look in to my relatives or among friends. And I know a lot of people. I might also be older then you think. But keep laughing buddy. You seem to like it.

>>19239432
The group you want to ask about this is Mormons. I know several legitimately believe that they have experienced miraculous happenings on condition of their faith, such as increased endurance, healing through rituals, and I even know one guy who is there when someone was brought back from the dead.

>special gifts from jesus
you get to know jesus.

>>19243869
I know you posted that thinking it was profound, but it really betrays how trinitarians are idolators.

Wasn't the point to know God?

>>19243958
>idolater
mere sympathizers
>know God
threw jesus

>>19243958

You know nothing of idolatry. Jesus is God, that is the mystery of the trinity. The Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit are each separate and distinct yet all fully God.

What you are suggesting otherwise is known as Arianism, and was known as heresy even in the 4th century AD.

>>19239432

I was a pretty hardcore fundie that "had a relationship with Jesus", read through the bible about 4 times, I've fasted innumerable times (the longest being 5 days I think) and shunned television, movies, and most forms of contemporary music. I also preached on street corners monthly and in front of congregations.

Basically my experience is similar to Dan Barkers. Now I'm as "worldly" as a potato in the ground. Nothing happened that can't be explained through 'Mundane" explanations.

All in all it was relatively a waste of time. Made many good friends, became more assertive and other shit like that but nothing amazing.

>>19244203
It's known as monotheism. As in "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is One."

>>19244234

If you deny that Jesus is consubstantial with the Father then you are not a Christian

>>19239506

Can you elaborate more on the situation here and throw some resources out on this kind of stuff? Currently a Christian and starting to look into the mystical aspects of it.

>>19240672

fuck off normie

>>19244265
When did the godhood of Jesus become the focus of his ministry?

Idolatry.

>>19244234

Understanding God as One does not necessarily mean that God is not allowed to take whatever form He so chooses to express Himself to man - that would be placing limits on God. Rather it is to understand that there are not "two powers in Heaven", there is one supreme power that chooses to manifest itself in various ways to the lower planes. The Father, Son, Holy Spirit, etc. are all images bestowed by the Incomprehensible, the archangels too serve as vehicles through which the Father reveals His aspects.

>>19244364
So the superpower Jesus gives you is the power of mental gymnastics?

If any manifestation of God can be equated with God, then Earth, angelic messengers, and everything in between are all God. If that's what you mean, we have different presuppositions.

>Not referring to legalist or lukewarm, I'm talking about Christians who actually follow and seek god. One's that pray in the Lord's Essence for hours and days on in,

God made me a god - but only after a decade of atheism. Regardless, the gospels stayed strongly in the center of my being even as an atheist - most of the rest of the Bible with the exception of Proverbs and Ecclesiastes - not so much.

'The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look at him! A glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ Yet wisdom is justified by all her children.” - Luke 7:34-35

>>19244361

If you deny the godhood of Christ then you cannot believe in the saving power of His sacrifice. If you say that Jesus the man was not fully God then you devalue his blood.

What are your idols?

>>19244421

Earth isn't a manifestation of God lol. Archangels are expressions of God in the same way that your right and left hands are expressions of you, and in a sense are you, but fail to capture the fullness of you.

Archangels are expressions of various aspects of God, this is obvious in their names and in their representation in the ancient scriptures, when angels would refer to themselves as God and be referred to as God. To deny this is to completely deny the legitimacy of many central Biblical texts.

Your problem is you think of God the same way you would think of a human being. You think he's only one "person", in the same way you can only ever be one physical person. You fail to see that His ways are not your ways, His thoughts are not your thoughts. God choosing to manifest himself in the lower planes of reality as various forms does not contradict His Oneness, it merely shows that there are various ways in which God can display Himself - but the key is it's always the same Self that is being displayed, in whatever aspects. Jesus represents the fullness of God incarnated as a man, the Holy Spirit is exactly what it sounds like, and the Father is the pure, high image of God that exists outside the material planes. All are God choosing to reveal Himself differently. All in fact are images shared to man for man's benefit - they are a language in which God attempts to reveal Himself to man, the same way you give simple, tonal commands to a dog. You can relate to the dog even though the dog doesn't have the capacity to grasp all of your nuanced thoughts. We also can't grasp the Incomprehensible, but we can grasp images of God relayed to us.

>>19244763

To add on to this, picture a dog who's master puts on an elaborate disguise, complete with a perfume that changes his scent. When the master takes off his disguise, the dog might be confused and befuddled to see the familiar face of his master underneath what he assumed to be the face of a stranger. He might fail to equate the two images, and if the master were to put on the exact same disguise and reenter the room - the dog might be fooled again, because he simply doesn't have the machinery to grasp what is happening on a higher intellectual level. In his mind, he doesn't understand that a person could wear entirely different clothes, scents, even put on a different face, and yet remain the same person. And yet that is exactly what is happening. Now take this situation and blow it up by an unimaginable factor, because the distance between us and God is so much more severe than that between dog and man. God operates in planes far above us that we have total ignorance of. Indeed, He is the very definition and bounds of our entire reality. It shouldn't come us a shock that we misinterpret Him often and that His ways and thoughts, even those intended for us to grasp, are difficult to grasp.

What I'm trying to say is that "God is One" can still be conserved under a different viewpoint, and there are other interpretations besides what you've singularly chosen to interpret the statement as. Your defensive posture and refusal to consider the alternative shows that on some level you already know this and are afraid of it. Relax your control and I'll do the same and consider your stance as well. God requires humility in the approach to Him in any way - including the intellectual. I can admit I need more humility - can you?
