But what the LORD has given us to know is found in His Word. He expects us to read, study & apply its blessed Truths to our lives, to the Church, & be able to discern truth from error. As I type this note to you, my wife is watching a program (a series) about those who found release from the Church of Scientology & their exposition of the evils therein. Is this wrong for such a program to go on air? Some might think so. But if it means giving out the warning to someone about to be seduced & made twice the candidate for hell, I say, 'proclaim it far & wide' & may the alert go out to stop many more in their tracks.
And if this is too close to home, consider the ministry of Jesus & His Apostles: their continued work of exposing the sin of mankind, the evils of the Jewish religious leaders, & then reaching out far beyond Jerusalem with the life-giving Gospel of Jesus Christ. Maybe they should have formed a small coterie, sheltered from all the evil around them, & saved themselves much hatred, persecution & violent deaths. But they would have disobeyed God's Call & burden on their hearts. Yes, they had to make judgement on people (religious or not), knowing that all men had to have the opportunity to hear the Truth - for only the Truth could set men free. Were they attacking another's religion, or were they sending out a warning & giving out God's Truth? We hate no man - but hate Satan's deceptions.
Matthew 5:27-37 on marriage and divorce. Take a look at 1 Corinthians 7:8-15; Malachi 3:15-16
Marriage is a VOW MADE BEFORE GOD. The problems in your life are because you don't know how binding a vow is. It would be good for you to make an appointment at a Church that offers counseling. They're not going to condemn you. You will understand the seriousness of the vow.
John 4:
16 Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
17 The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:
18 For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.
Comment: Jesus knows all of our life's story. He didn't condemn her. He showed her a better way to live.
Ephesians 5:33 - Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence (honor) her husband.
My counsel for happiness: wed a Christian man. Genesis chapter 24 is the best love story written.
The Book of Ruth has a happy ending too.
Mishael
Sometimes I unload on the devil too. He tried to take my life at age 36. I had a vision and in it, I saw Jesus! He was sitting on a pure white horse, looking straight into my eyes. I was saved and delivered of evil spirits. Next morning I woke up and the Holy Spirit was inside of me, speaking. He taught me how to stay free. What to say and do. My walk with Jesus has been close, since. I'm alive because of His Will, not mine. I pray every day for people to wake up from the spirit of slumber. It clouds our minds so we forget to pray for those fast tracking to hell. I saw hell too. No one wants to go there.
It's deep darkness with roots, slimes of filth no one can perceive. You can't see but you can hear screams. People are twisted in the roots, unable to move. It's NOT a rock n roll party with every rock star that died without Christ.
It's just not glamorous at all.
We are still here to pray for people we know, and people we don't know yet. I pray for God to send the angels to those who are not free, cannot see, cannot hear. On drugs or drink.
We're on a rescue mission; stealing souls from the Thief.
America doesn't know yet, that our Nation is in a deadly drought; not enough water enough for all. Why are we not fasting and praying? No rain, no fertilizer, no crops, empty grocery stores. It's happening and most don't SEE it is. We're going to see national mass deaths in other countries, on tv maybe. Media doesn't want us to know how bad it is. That's why populations are migrating to USA. We think we're so privileged. We can't see the drought. Hoover Dam is almost dry!
Open your eyes. Forget 60,000$ cars!! Water is almost gone. Google HAARP, Cloud Seeding. Pray for rain every day. If you're a doubter look up DISASTERS IN THE WORLD TODAY on YouTube.
Streetpreacher
Maybe a stupid question but...,
Who is speaking here??
I can't tell if it is God or not.
I'm going to take John 15:26 first, and this is one that has been taken out of context to show that God predestines people to heaven or hell.
Jesus says, You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: So people use this text as a text to show that predestination, that God chooses people to be saved, and that He chooses some to not be saved.
The problem is that the Greek word for chosen here, and please keep in mind that He's talking to his apostles, the final 11 or 12 that are with Him, and it's the same word used in Luke 6:13 that has a do with the Lord choosing the apostles from out of the disciples and that is what the text means in context.
He hasn't chosen them to be saved and leaving everybody else to be lost. He has chosen these apostles from out of His disciples. So these people were already His disciples but He made choices who would step up and become the apostles.
I am off to bed. I will look at the other verses and respond tomorrow.
Happy belated BIRTHDAY, I have four children, 3 girls, 54, 52, 50, one son 48.
God Bless you.

I did some research on this term: soul ties and also on soul links.
I would refer you to the site Got Questions on these two terms.
Also, these sites:
Compelling Truth-article on soul ties.
Fighting for the Truth: Soul Ties? I & Soul Ties? II
Question #1-It is entirely possible that Lot knew that there weren't any men who were actually interested in women anymore; hence it was either a stalling tactic or meant to show some sort of accommodation in order to save his own life or perhaps keep the son in laws from being attacked. We shouldn't forget Lot's original desire to go the fertile valley which was visually appealing. Clearly; the men were called in because Lot was familiar with this type of behavior; perhaps he had tried this before.
It is obvious for the sake of his own family he should have left there a long time before that; and more so since Abraham would have been there to support him if necessary. It also should be noted that Lot's wife isn't mentioned in this account which seems odd as well. We need to keep in mind how it is stated that Lot was "vexed with the evil" ( 2 Peter 2:7-8). He chose apparently not to speak out so the world's riches for a time had paralyzed him. (also answers question #2).
Question #3-Actually; it was the other way around; his son in laws acted like he was mocking them; they took it lightly. They were probably too comfortable there as well; certainly they didn't harbor a fear of the Lord as THEY were not mentioned either as trying to stop the mob; clearly something was amiss there.
Question #4. The other comment is good with reasoning and scriptures. We need to remember; that first of all these women had lost eligible men which likely took quite some time to find; and they may have thought the whole world was destroyed. They wanted children; without which at that time would make them sense they lost all value. It was also before Moses laws on marriage or relations with family and his wife was dead. Perhaps they thought almost all men had no interest in women anymore as well; living there. Not excusing it; but fear was their primary thought; not illicit sex for the fun of it.
Question #3
Please consider reflecting on these scriptures: 1 Peter 5:7, 2 Timothy 2:1, Psalms 18:1-3, Psalms 46:1, Psalms 121, Psalms 34.
Genesis 34, Levi & Simeon took vengeance, then were cursed by their father Jacob "Israel", Genesis 49:5-7,
2Samuel 13, Absalom took vengeance for his sister, was away from his father & home several years, I counted 5 yrs, 3 in exile 2 more not allowed to see his father's face. 2Samuel 14:24,28,
2Kings 24:4, Proverbs 6:16,17, Deuteronomy 19:10, Deuteronomy 27:25,
There are several people who were conceived by rape, that have been amazing people to this world: Pastor James Robison of Life Outreach International who helps, feeds thousands & digs wells for clean water around the world in worst poverty-stricken places. Pastor Jack Hibbs,
Dr. Mark Sherwood, who helps people achieve wellness & better health, written books also for better health. Julie Makimaa life activist, Layne Beachly 7 time World Champion Surfer, & several more Pastors, Martin Sheen's (the Actor) wife Janet Sheen, mother of Charlie Sheen, Emilio Esteves, Renee Esteves, & Ramon Esteves all Actors.
Let's not disregard the right to life of an innocent human
Hopefully these are all helpful
Happy Birthday to you, too. May you be blessed over and over again by the Lord this year. I am praying for you and your Mom and step-father. How is it going for you?
...continued
I am to be loving, because God so loved me first. I can do all of these through the power of the Holy Spirit at work in me to conform me to His image. Do I fail at times, yes. But as I age, I can know that I am not the same person I was 50 years ago, 30 years, 5 years, or even a week ago. I am every changing in a good way. I am sure that is true of you, Mishael. Happy 71! May you have blessing upon blessing each day you live with us here in this life.
......After he breath on them he said receive ye the H.G....That did not come till some 50 days later at Pentacost...Thats When he said receive ye the Promise of my Father which was baptism of the H.G...Thus we see that the spirit can be born in us who hear his Words....What i am trying to say is SPIRITS can be born in us via his seed the word which is spirit and life....Thats y he has to know us that when the good seed is sown in our hearts...initiating a birth of Christ in us....The Son of man
.....God even makes his Angels Spirits and knows them by Name.. Hebrews 1 : 17...And his ministers a flame of fire.....The H.G. Fell on them that heard his words... Acts 10 :44....Simply b/c Jesus is God the son...And able to propagate very God with his seed the word....Jesus cd not tell us To whom the word came ( his seed ) it made them Gods...If he were able to propagate God with his seed the living word....They don't call him the bridegroom for nothin....The Babes and Suckling that are able to PRAISE GOD with a PERFECT Praise are the result of his seed ...our new innerman the H.G. SPIRITS.
I hope your birthday was a good one. I am 6 years younger. We are getting closer and closer to living out the last of the days God has appointed for us to live (even before we even lived one). I agree, when I recall the sins of my past I cringe, too. I hate these things I did and the way i tried to justify them. But I also remember that all of these sins are forgiven and cast into the sea. Satan wants us to still feel guilty about past sins, but we are not guilty! Praise the Lord. But when we do remember sins, we should agree with God that they are wrong and hate them as He hates sin.
We are getting older, hopefully wiser. We have more time to think deeply about matters and develop a mindset that aligns with the Lord's mind and will. We have people in our lives that may be gone tomorrow, so I try use the opportunities I have with them to help them in their journey towards eternity. We witness by what we say, do, and don't do. Our countenance shows the joy and peace of God and the calmness that comes from being assured of our acceptance with God. Our mannerisms show whether we too busy to stop and be helpful to someone or just keep going an overlook others.
I hope to look out for the interests of others and not just my own. I am to think well of others and not too highly of myself. I am to be patient and generous with others, whether time or sharing what I have. I am to be self-controlled so that I exemplify the character of Jesus and not give anyone a reason to doubt that believing in Jesus is the best way or see me as being hypocritical. I am to be abound in doing good and turn from doing evil. I am to be kind and willing to ease another's burdens. I am to be longsuffering, accepting what causes me to suffer with the knowledge that God is using it for my good. I am to be faithful to my words to others, keeping my commitments, being true to my words. I am to walk in faithfulness to God and His ways. I am to be gentle in my demeanor, not harsh-
1Jo 2:18 (KJV) Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
Other than that, Adam & "Old Man Wilson" gave good scripture.
2. God created all the other angels.
3. Earth was Created for Mankind/HUMANS.
(Adam and Eve)
4. LUCIFER (use the Search Box)
He wanted Gods Throne and Praise.
5. Lucifer led a rebellion against God. The same God who
Made him. Lucifer lost his Name and became Satan.
Satan and the angels he recruited for rebellion were
Hurled to the Earth.
There was a problem: wicked spirits have no human
Bodies because they are NOT HUMAN.
6. Satan took a serpents body to inhabit; to do his devil
Stuff. The lesser angels became evil spirits. They
Could indwell animals, anything EXCEPT HUMANS.
He could talk to God, but he couldn't have a human
a body. He couldn't take Job's body.
7. Word search the word INHABITANTS. They were
Possessed. Maybe giants. Goliath was the only giant
Mentioned in the Bible. See Apocrypha.
8. In the flood, only 8 humans survived.
9. The inhabitants and humans drowned.
10. Evil spirits had no bodies. I believe this is when
Powers and principalities originated.Nimrods wife was
Witch. In Isaiah the inhabitants were ragging on Satan
I don't think we should get more explicit. They had no power against Gods Son. Time moved along. Saul consulted with the witch of Endor (a human who allowed possession of her body.
Jesus is God ( Romans 1, Godhead) Mary accepted what the angel Gabriel said, and Jesus would be born a HUMAN. He came to fulfill Genesis 3:15. He laid aside His power to become a human just as we all are; in need of a Savior. Satan (not human) tried to kill Jesus a couple of times.
Jesus died on that cross for all humans who would receive Him. Satan has no power or dominion over humans that are born again. Say what Jesus said in the New Testament. His word is stronger than anything satan can think to do. But we must exercise our AUTHORITY Jesus gives to believers.
Fight back!
John 4:24 God is Spirit .....
Ephesians 4:4 ONE SPIRIT ...ONE BODY ...
Ephesians 4:6 ONE GOD and FATHER OF ALL .....
Man, born of woman, (FLESH), is like a Beast of the Earth, NO KNOWLEDGE.
The Holy Ghost came to GIVE MAN KNOWLEDGE.
So we can be BORN OF SPIRIT.
God IS SPIRIT, no beginning and no end.
God created a IMMORTAL BODY, and put inside that IMMORTAL BODY, HIS SPIRIT (Himself), and called that BODY, Jesus Christ, the first man, the TRUE ADAM, with no beginning and no end.
Here is a PROPHECY in Genesis:
Genesis 5:2 Male and Female created he them, and blessed them, and CALLED THEIR NAME ADAM. in the DAY they were created.
That day (of that creation), is called the DAY OF THE LORD, the day you come out of darkness into light. You come to the KNOWLEDGE that by the RESURRECTION of Christ's NEW BODY (YOU and I) and the NEW LIFE by the SPIRIT of THE FATHER: we become ADAM, Christ was the first ADAM, before the flesh and blood Adam, we are the last, ADAM, created in Christ Jesus
Revelation 1:8 ... Revelation 22:13 I AM Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
Ephesians 4:4 ....ONE BODY .......
There is only ONE BODY that can exist in the next age, and THAT BODY is the BODY OF CHRIST.
1 Timothy 6:16 Who only (Christ only) hath immortality, dwelling in the LIGHT ......
1 Corinthians 15:38 But God giveth IT (the new creation in Christ) a BODY as it hath pleased him, and to ever SEED HIS (God's on body), God's BODY IS JESUS CHRIST.
WE ARE THE BODY OF CHRIST, The Father (SPIRIT) being THE LIFE, of the BODY.
This NEW BIRTH happens when your body of FLESH and BLOOD DIES.
Romans 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also predestinated to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the FIRSTBORN (Alpha) among many brethren (Omega).
God Bless You.
Also, Sodom and Gomorrah were actually melted with liquid sulphur balls. I saw an archaeologist showing on video above the area where those cities existed. No bones were found I think. They found more of the balls underwater too.
It must've been like a Bowl of liquid sulfur emptied on the ciities. It's a great discovery because no one had been able to pinpoint it on aerial maps. I hope it's on Google soon.
I mention this because we can be pretty sure of God's view of cities full of homosexuality and lesbianism. (sorry Ellen). It is what it is. And it's clear in Romans 1.
As a Streetpreacher I've heard all the arguments. When Obama lit up the White House in rainbow colors, I cried. He made our nation's Capital a joke to snicker over.
I don't argue with them. It starts riots.
I love my Country and I honor every soldier that fought and died for this nation!! They deserve more than they got. Please let us reverence our military.
It's legal to change your party affiliation as often as you want. The House, Senate and Congress counts CONSTITUENTS ever morning over coffee. Well, we are the constituents! We're registered on one side, or the other. We need to "clean" house. They stomp on our Constitution and Bill of Rights, and salute the Flag?!
They've taken our oil reserves and gave it to China this week! Every week they give billions to Overseas countries. They haven't done a thing about our infrastructures. They've hijacked our baby food and formula and give it free to millions of illegal immigrants. I live in Texas and it is horrible to see this every day.
We pay triple at the grocery and gas stations. While the Congress gets FREE LUNCH, every day on taxpayer money. Again-Reregister and vote against this madness.
They just want our votes and step over us to get what they want. It's too expensive to ignore anymore.
Adios Amigos, Love You!
