Believes Quotes

Scriptures make it clear that we can drink of God’s river now, here, in this life, even if it’s only in a measure. We don’t have to wait to drink until we’ve passed on into the glorified state. Jesus said this river would flow into us, through us, and out of us to others. “‘He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water’” (John 7:38). This glorious river of the Spirit is available to each of us, and the greater our thirst, the greater our participation in this river (see Matthew 5:6). We can drink of this river now! Its source is God.

Kat and Kropp get in an argument over the war as they rest from an hour’s worth of drill (occasioned by Tjaden’s not saluting a major properly).

Kropp believes the leaders of each country should fight each other in an arena to settle the war; the “wrong” people currently do the fighting.

Was Christ God incarnate? Yes, of course, but so are we all. This in no way detracts from the divinity of Christ, who must have been a very advanced incarnation of God.
