Hi, I had a painful cyst under my breast that finally got to a point that I really needed to do something about it, even if it meant going to the doctor. It was purple, abscessed and about the size of a small trawberry. Tea Tree oil was not working at all. Well, I don’t like doctors and would be prescribed antibiotics anyway, so I got desperate and did some searching. I found the R message in which castor oil was recommended. I had my husband get some castor oil. I googled castor oil and found that it works really well with iodine mixed with it. The combination is great. I applied i ...

try applying castor oil - that made a cyst drain for me. I mixed the castor oil with iodine and it worked in less than 24 hours. or, try applying tea tree oil. Of course, it is close to the eye so much care will have to be taken in dealing with this situation. you might try cutting down on dairy also.   [End]

If you have problems with cravings you might try a candida cleanse. Those nasty yeast bugs always cause me to be hungry and give in to lots. I am going to do a candida cleanse along with fasting. Water fasting will kill a lot, but it might be good to look into candida. Congratulations on your wedding.   [End]

I have been oil pulling for almost an entire year now. It has changed my life. I was on vacation last week, and because a snowstorm made us leave late I didn’t have time to run to the store to buy more oil. So, I thought going one week without oil pulling would be all right. Well, it was a disgusting reminder as to why I oil pull. I would wake up in the morning with a nasty taste in my mouth. I was so congested with mucuos that I literally felt a drowning sensation where I couldn’t catch my breath - up until the point that I was able to cough mucous free. My nose was so full of muco ...

My in-laws had a Christmas party one year. I was talking with my mother-in-law about how I only go to the dentist every year, not every six months like they tell me too. My mother-in-law, who does not have good teeth, only goes every year. A son of one of their dentist friends over heard us speak and he said ”teeth are highly overrated... there are much better things, like dental implants.” Of course, he was thinking about how his college tuition is being paid and making light of the situation. It was pretty funny and also pretty revealing!   [End]

I kinda sorta agree with what is being said but it may be a little harsh. I do think that it is possible that someone in leadership could be saying something like ”God told me that you should be...” However, given the current state of the Church at large and the presence of so much spiritual abuse you need to be very suspect of anything suspicious and any check in your spirit. His asking you to do children’s church looked very suspect. My best advice is to find a denominational church that already exists if you don’t have peace about your current situation.

I can reply from my experience from a couple of angles... First of all the Bible is not terribly specific when talking about church government.

However, what resulted was that a group of people came together ”group think” with a vision ”build the church” and the dynamics of the group was such that some people g ...
