Absolutely.  My 10mo old daughter (and my 18yr old, for that matter) is her own worst enemy.  If that isn't a real parable, I don't know what is!  Worry more about our own carnality and spiritual ignorance, not the devil.  Beware of both, of course.

the rysta,
I too have been truly enlightened by the work the Holy Spirit has done through Ray. Pray and study my friend. I too question everything, that is a good study habit in my opinion. Be faithful as He is faithful, ask God to revel Himself to you. Be still and listen then pray and study some more. Peace and grace to you my friend, in the name of Jesus.

Ryan,

I am 47 years young. I came to the Lord when I was 28. I have hung out with Christians since then. Worked at a church, taught at a Christian School, done tons of group Bible studies, been heavily involved in a mega church and then left that to go into 2 different Word of Faith churches. I believed and taught and stood up for every church doctrine out there. I questioned a few things from the studies I'd done on my own with the Holy Spirit rather than man leading me, but for the most part was a good little sheep. BUT all the while, God was bringing us out of worldly systems like public education, blindly following some political party, the health care system (western medicine), etc. getting us prepared for our ultimate stepping out.

Then, one day a friend sends me this link to Ray's paper on tithing. Says she wants my opinion. I read it. BAM! EVERYTHING he says he backs up with God's Word. I am all about "building precept on precept" so I keep reading more and more. My husband and I were out of Babylon within a month I'd guess and our lives would never be the same.
To say that I have been "enlightened" by what Ray has spent so many hours studying and writing about would be a grand understatement.
To say that the Holy Spirit didn't send us here would be completely crazy on our parts. This wonderful place is the biggest stepping stone in our walk so far.

Read and study my friend. The Holy Spirit has sent you here too.  ;)

Hi Ryan,

Three Scriptures below that should answer your above questions about learning or confirming anything Spiritual. Study The Word if you want to learn and grow in Spiritual knowledge. Stop leaning to your own understanding, start searching The Scriptures to confirm The Scriptures.

None of the wisdom of this world, is going to do you one tiny bit of good, toward understanding any Scripture verse or passage.

Pro 25:2 (MKJV)
The glory of God is to hide a thing; but the honor of kings is to search out a matter.

Pro 15:33 (GNB)
Reverence for the LORD is an education in itself. You must be humble before you can ever receive honors.

Php 2:3 (GNB)
Don't do anything from selfish ambition or from a cheap desire to boast, but be humble toward one another, always considering others better than yourselves.

Hey Ryan, I have been at this all my life, been to most churches, meditated for months at a time with the Holy Spirit, baptized and raised 4 children in the Catholic church, was a communion minister, etc. etc. Come here and learned more in a few months than all my life and experienced grace while reading all of this. One cannot deny the scriptual truth as Ray presents it but most of all look at the people on this site(you will know them by their fruit) and tell me if these people aren't some of the most sincere and loving Christians you have ever come across. The narrow gate is here my friend. Judy
