Hey hiya doing Giannis....Nice to hear from you....But Giannis Jesus neva commands water baptism....Jesus knew that they had all been water baptised...But he warns them if I wash thee not you will have no part with with me...Which speaks volumes of a greater baptism of the hearts an internal baptism...which resulted from his blood the Cross...All the water in the world cd not compare to 1 drop of Jesus blood for the remission of sins....The foot washing was prophetic of a heart washing by the blood of the lamb....As Jesus said its the things that come from the heart of a man that defiles him...Not his feet, Not our personal hygiene...Nothin plzs God but a new CREATURE....Which is the H.G.

.....Giannis what Jesus did at Calvary was a New Covenant in his blood....Water baptism was part of the old covenant an external washing....But this New Covenant in his blood is an Internal washing....Remember what Jesus said this is the New Covenant in my blood drink ye all of it....God Almighty was making a new covenant at Calvary with the blood of Jesus...John the bap. gave us water baptism...But John says behold the lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world... Something water baptism neva cd do....All the water in the world cd not redemn mankind back to God....Even in the O.T. without the shedding of Blood there was no remission of sins....When ya tell folks that they need water baptism,...You are in essence saying his blood of this New Covenant was not sufficient, you need water baptism to make it complete...When Jesus said it was finished at the CROSS....Nothin can be added to it...Absolutely Nothin without making his blood of none effect...As Bro. Paul tells us in 1 st Cor. 17 : 25 ..Thats y the lord was so upset with Peter commanding water baptism...3 times the lord rebuked peter with that sheet with all the unclean animals which was the Church that was made clean by the Blood...What i have made CLEAN do not call common or unclean by commanding water baptism....GB

Mark 13, Matthew 24, yes, please read these chapters

Requests Prayers for myself and my family today

Dear Savanna B, the key to your peace is to trust Him. He said it best in His Word.

Ps. 56:3 "What time I am afraid, I will trust in You."

Deuteronomy 31:6, "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."

Romans 8:37-39 "Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

And remember, it says in Philippians 4:13, you "...can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth..." you.

God bless and keep you!

Hi Fred , I think we must try to remember that to a certain extent , people are the products of their environment , the world is a very different place now to when I was a child , if the adults don't teach the kids how are they to know anything ? Things that seem normal and no big deal to them were unheard of when I was young . The world changes but people don't , their hearts are either open or they are not , what they look like , what we look like , is of no importance to God and we should try to feel the same way , walk by faith , not by sight . Always enjoy your posts Fred . Much love in Christ .

In those days there was no king in Israel , everyone did what was right in his own eyes , this isn't talking about the likes of David or Saul etc , this is referring to God I believe , He wasn't King in Israel's heart , that why there was so much craziness , a bit like now .

I think it's also worth noticing that once they let Jonah down into the water the storm ceased . Another parrallel with Christ .

Dear "Open Your Eyes to Reality" Streetpreacher, well written. Stay strong in Jesus, Love u in Christ. Luke 10:1-12

Thank you Old Man Wilson , I'm guessing you are a fab dad , mine was a horror ! But he taught me a lot about people , he didn't even make it to 60 . Enjoy your family and I'm looking forward to meeting you in Our Father's Kingdom . He's the only Father we need , much love in Christ .

Thanks Gigi , I had a quiet one which is good , I hope you and all yours are ok , my mom and step dad are ok , he will be 75 towards the end of August , we are all hoping that he will still be with us so we can celebrate with him . He has pulmonary fibrosis and heart failure , his feet are the size of a large loaf of bread , the three of us have good senses of humour so we are all trying to make each other laugh as much as possible . They are both lapsed catholics and alcoholics , it can be an amusing combination smiley face . Stay strong in the Lord , much love in Christ .

Hahahaha you are very funny some times , smiley face , much love in Christ .

Dear "Suzee",

my thoughts too, and afterwards the Lord will come after His will, with a cry of an archangel and awaken All for the last war. Hallelujah Amen. We have nothing and fear if we have the Holy Spirit in our hearts. Thank You Jesus Thank You for fulfilling Your Word.

Luke 10:1-12

God bless u and yours in Jesus name, love u in Christ.

Dear "Linda Harris", it became a little inexplicable this Postmyers567 is right. A little less answer to you will be. Jesus will return and then we will join Him home to the heavenly dwellings. Based on Paul's words, it will come a rapture! For Paul believed that Jesus would come before Paul laid down his flesh. And so did all the disciples! (smiles). So you see it's easy and go away in thoughts and deeds. Read and learn from the Holy Spirit. Get your own learning. Then you will understand everything in the right order.

They are not wrong the others who have answered either, just look at it from a different angle at a different time. We are all like gems, dear people that Jesus loves, and that we are obliged to love. To fulfill the law.

God bless you and yours, in the name of Jesus, love you in Christ. Stay strong in the word of God. Its the Life og Jesus.

Luke 10:1-12

Dear "Javion", remember that Jesus sat for three days in the wilderness and was tempted by the evil one. Luke 4:1-13 He did not eat or drink. (When we experience persecution in our day. We go to psychiatrists and supervisors).

To you is my advice. Spend 3 days of your life fasting and praying to the Lord. It will help you much, and others will be saved. Why? Because Jesus said so.

Luke 10:1-12

Matthew 9:14-17

Nothing is too difficult for us, we have with us the Holy Spirit, Jesus loves you and yours, i love you in Christ and pray.

Stay strong in the word of God.

well said "Amen!"

Reply to Postmyers567:

The events recorded in Revelation 11 are still in our future, not in our past.

2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.

5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.

6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.

7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.

8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.

10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

11 And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.

12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

Amen, Amen & Amen. KJV all the way! God inspired, man written, original words.

Yes, Steven, indeed it is!

"Amen" my response that ended with.."to said question" wasn't to anyone specific. I was just adding that to the comment section for any Qs ask because several of these questions can be answered in the bible faster then waiting for an answer on here ( and we are to search the bible anyway, God says). I agree! A marriage is sacred and you should only marry someone your evenly yoked with. I went through 3 marriages before knowing what that meant much less the importance of a vow. The ONLY exception is if one cheats. Yet even then things can be worked out if they truly love each other. God bless for sharing "Texsis".

Hi Phil.

Part 2.

Here's a similar argument between the Desciples in Acts 15:5-11. But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.

And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter.

And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;

And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

NOW THEREFORE WHY TEMPT YE GOD, TO PUT A YOKE UPON THE NECK OF THE DISCIPLES, WHICH NEITHER OUR FATHERS NOR WE WERE ABLE TO BEAR?

But we believe that THROUGH THE GRACE OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST WE SHALL BE SAVED,

( EVEN AS THEY.)

God bless.

Hi Phil.

I concur Steve.

The Law was given to Israel. The law given was to convict us of sin.

2 Corinthians 3:6-14.

Galatians 3:11-13.

Romans 7:4-5.

Romans 7:9-10.

Some aspects of the Law such as the Sabbath pointed to Christ work on the Cross that would free us from the curse of the Law. " Death"

Colossians 2:11-17.

In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:

Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.

And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;

Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the SABBATH DAYS:

HERE'S. THE KEY IN VERSE 17.

Vs.17) "Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ."

Israel "as a nation" regects Christ work on the cross so as of now the have yet to join in that rest.( Yet they honor the Sabbath!)

Please study Hebrews 4:2-11.

That rest comes after salvation. Not to obtain it.

If one wants to observe the sabbath go ahead, but if you do it to earn salvation you fall in the same unbelief as Israel.

The Galatians was warned of the same thing in Galatians 5:4. "Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace."

Salvation is not for sell its a gift. Ephesians 2:8-9. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

I hope this helps.

God bless.

i need a prayer guys im trying to walk stronger in my walk with GOD most times i feel confident but i just need some righteous prayer over my life i need jesus and the father in my life i need a prayer for stronger faith and just need the lord to open my eye im trying to do his will in my life and just need the LORD there im dealing with spiritual attacks

Another commandment in addition to the blood on the door posts in Egypt and the scarlet thread was they had to remain in the house. The scarlet thread and blood did no good if they went outside their house. I liken this to we have to keep the commandments of Christ and abide in his house or the blood will not avail anything. St. John 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

Brother Steve:

The PROPHETS, remember.

Isaiah 42:1 Behold my servant (Christ), whom I (the Father) uphold; mine (the Father's) elect (Christ), in whom my (the Father's) soul delighteth; I (the Father) have put my spirit upon him (Christ); HE (Christ) shall bring forth judgement to the Gentiles.

Isaiah 42:6 I the Lord (the Father) have called thee (Christ) in righteousness, and (I the Father) will hold thy (Christ's) hand, and give thee (Christ) for a covenant of the people, and a LIGHT to the GENTILES.

Christ not PAUL.

Paul was just the instrument of CHRIST.

Isaiah had already prophecied that the Jews would reject Christ.

Christ came to the Jews first to fulfill PROPHECY.

Isaiah 6:9 And he said, Go and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not, and see ye indeed and perceive not.

Matthew 13:14 In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand, and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive.

God Bless YOU.

And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, thJohn 14:16. at he may abide with you FOR EVER!!

A Lovely verse.

Israel futurist have to deal with these verses, they try to spiritualize them and say they are referring to false believers but that's not what the scriptures say.. it says Jews referring to racial Hebrew Jewish Israelites

Acts 13:42 and 44 in no way say Paul commanded to keep the sabbath.

Paul says no day should be set above another in this age.

Paul teaches the opposite of what you said for this age Col 2:16.

Of course Jesus preached the sabbath he was a Jew and kept the Law.

Please read Gal 1-3, Eph 1-3 and Col 1-3 to understand Paul's gospel.

It is not the same as what Jesus taught.

Paul's gospel is called a mystery (secret) and was faith ALONE in the finished work of the cross.

Jesus nor the 12 taught this.

Read Peters sermon in Acts 2-3, he teaches the cross as a murder indictment.

Please read Jer 31:31-34, Eze 36:21-28 and Heb 8:8-10

The New Covenant belongs to "Israel and Judah"

This is the clear teaching of scripture, I understand this is not what church tradition teaches.

Paul says we SHOULD love another, Jesus taught that loving one another was REQUIRED for salvation.

The book of 1 John is clear loving was REQUIRED.

Jesus mistered to Israel the gospel of the kingdom. (Israel's prophesied and promised earthly kingdom.)

Paul ministers to ALL the gospel of the grace of God, and it was a mystery.

Please do a word study on the word Mystery.

All old testament prophecy's are fulfilled in Christ as Jesus stated.. Lu 24:44 (KJV) And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.

the great tribulation your referring to happened already in 70 A.D. The destruction of Jerusalem. which Jesus predicted..

Mt 24:1 (KJV) And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.

Mt 24:2 (KJV) And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

Jesus also said there will never be another time like that..... Mt 24:21 (KJV) For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

Malachi 4:5-6 is a clear reference to John the Baptist

Mal 4:5 (KJV) Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:

Mal 4:6 (KJV) And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

Lu 1:16 (KJV) And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.

Lu 1:17 (KJV) And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

My sister, Linda Hardin Pritchard may she receive her sight again. May my brother, Larry Hardin return to God's House.
