| Had some confusion between Baptist and Charismatic doctrine
Came to the conclusion that if anyone preaches that it is possible to do the unpardonable sin while still alive then they would cause people to be suicidal, therefore the only such thing as the unpardonable sin would probably be dying in habitual sin. But remember Ananias and Sophira. They lied to God, and God killed them right then and there. So don't test the Lord your God. It's better to be safe than sorry, because you never know when God will require your life of you.

| Whole Heart Can't you see the life I lead?
The heart I bleed?
The cross my creed?
I see in your heart you plead
For something real
Say you do and I'll take you
Through the steps to a richer Heart,
A fuller heart,
To fill that hole that you've
Yearned to be filled so deeply.
I've found in my life you can't
Fill that hole with silver or gold,
Or friends you hold,
Or pleasures you find so cheaply.
It only gets deeper.
And your pit, it gets steeper.
Only pure love from Christ above
Can save your heart from drowning.
So reach out your hand to love
God is love to you abounding.
enjoy! Love, Elias | | |

| “Deep” Something inside of me cries out To something inside of You. Deep cries out to deep As lover calls out to Love. So calm and still, so peaceful sweet, I hear Your voice, calling out my name. So I open up the door To fellowship with You Lord, Beneath the shadow of Your wings. Something inside of me cries out To something inside of You. Deep cries out to deep As lover calls out to Love. So calm and still, so peaceful sweet, I hear Your voice, calling out my name. So I enter in by Your blood And through Your flesh, I enter into Your rest, Into the Holy of Holies. ...
