only the father knows the time of jesus return and the bible states you can loose your salvation

God the father god the son and god the holey sperit

Conelle Floyd,

I find it amazing, in the scriptures we can experience a full literary picture by the details.

The Bible is called "A Living Word" by some believers; I believe it's because we can always receive more wisdom, direction, & insight, year by year through reading again & again, study & researching the Bible's pages, stories & scritures.

You ask about 2Timothy 4:13, please see 2Timothy 4:21,22,

Note 2Timothy 4:16,17,

The emphasis seems to be, needing his cloak before winter, because he was imprisoned, left in the mercy of men

What's beautiful to me is he says "especially the parchments", that's most possibly our scriptures, by their service, faithfulness, determination & dedication. I've even considered how difficult it was in that time to find & obtain parchment.

2Corinthians 2:12, "Carpus" might have been that "open door"

Acts 16 & Acts 20, mention also the place called Troas, it may have been during the days they were there, in Troas,

Please notice; Acts 20:13,22,23,25,37,38,

See also 2Timothy 2:1,3,9,11,

We can just make assumption, did Paul leave it there, because he didn't think he'd make it to winter?

Please note: The website now has a Concordance included. If you click on the verse= it goes to another page. At the bottom of the page, it has definition, translation & the Concordance number for specific word translated, you can further research greek & other original translation.

Hopefully these are helpful in your study.

Thank You Jesus

Because Paul literally was a prisoner. Ephesians 3,

Philemon 1:9,10,22,23, Philippians 1:7,12,13,14,15, here Paul encourages others while in "bonds" , even saying it gives others boldness & confidence to speak the gospel without fear, resulting from Paul's example. Note: Philippians 1:18,20,21,28,29,30, 2Timothy 2:1,2,3,9,10,11,12,

Ephesians 6:10-24, Colossians 4:18,

Acts 20:22-25, Acts 20:37-38,

Please read the following chapters: Acts 24, Paul is accused of sedition Acts 24:5, Acts 26, Acts 27, Acts 28,

You are very kind Alex , I am a sinner . Only when we truly recognise this can we fully understand and appreciate what God and Jesus have done for us and how pure and faithful their love for us is . Much love to you in Christ our Saviour .

Hi this is John I know that I respond to your email thing but I forgot to say that I it made my day when I heard about the snake thing you know you said that the states were afraid of you I just I forgot to say that anyways I just thought that was just made my day okay you take care of yourself and thank you for respond

I agree with Susan!

Are you referring to what Daniel references in Daniel 9:2, if so: Daniel is speaking about Jeremiah's promise & Prophecy given by GOD to Israel about their return from captivity. Jeremiah 29:10

Jeremiah 12:15, Jeremiah 16:15, Jeremiah 24:5,6, Jeremiah 30,

Hopefully these are helpful in trying to answer your question. If you're searching something else, ask & hopefully we/I can help you

Amen! I agree with Vicki.

My husband Mitch works in venice beach California, please pray he is always protected there and that none of the homeless or mentally ill people come near him, pray he is always prosperous and is protected and has travel mercies. In Jesus Name, Amen.

God is real and his son Jesus did diefor our sins and rose up three days later to defeat the sins of his own believers to live a good life. Beat down the devil for our souls. Give All glory to God and to his angels and to the holy Spirit of Jesus for his protection in this world Amen.

Please Lord help this couple through their adversities in being a testimony for You. Please open Quonisha's husband heart to recognize You Christ Jesus and find genuine peace. Please Holy Spirit guide both of them unity and stewardship for God The Father I pray in the name of Jesus Christ!

Please consider reflecting on 1 Peter 5:7, Philippians 4:12-13, Jeremiah 29:11-13, 1 Chronicles 4:10.

Hiya Dear Suze Gbu your post is so indicative of your Christian life and your new heart and your new spirit...When ya said ( Me too) thats so indicative of your being involved in this warfare also ...GBU...But you are gona win Dear Suze...Gbu

In Jeremiah it says about God giving him a number JE 333 what verse is this

Why does Paul call himself a prisoner .

The way I understand that dear Doug is as follows:

You quoted Ephesians 2:3. " we were by nature children of wrath'' (before we believed in Jesus). What has changed and we are no longer children of wrath? Has our nature changed? Have we become sinless beings, or that we still sin but we now have the Blood of Christ available to us for forgiveness so we don't get judged by God for the sins we commit? I think the latter is true.

When we were born again has our nature changed? Although Jesus said to Nicodemus that noone knows how this happens, we know that it is something that the Spirit of God does.

But again practically have we become sinless? I don't think so. We still have a tendency to sin ie if I piss you off you will be angry and upset. It is easier for men to get ungry rather than staying calm, peaceful. The tendency to sin still exists in us, that is it is easier for men to sin rather that not to sin. Is it the same with God? James writes in his epistle James 1:13 "Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man" So God can not be tempted like people. God doesn't fight against sin, He just cannot do sins, His nature is untempered. But this not the case with people.

Why has God gave to us all those promises and what does it mean that we are partakers of divine nature? Partakers means that we are in communion with the Holly Spirit, our nature doesn't change but we are dressed with God's strength and grace to avoid sinning, but still we may sin and we see that in our everyday life, don't we? If all, but all, people fail and return to sin that means we are all failing to stay in faith? All people, I mean believers, are failures? There is nobody who achieved not to sin? No exception at all? Surely then something else happens.

My opinion is then that transformation and conversion has to do with our character not our nature.

I don't claim I am right about it but this is how I see it.

Surely, God is still doing miracles. If we look at what's happening globally - miracles are happening everywhere, such as: China, Syria, Iran and of course throughout Africa.

In the west, we can be blinkered to the wider picture.

Zechariah 2:5 kjv, Hebrews 10:19, Psalm 29:11.

Standing with you Gigi. In Jesus mighty name. In His Strength alone. Alleluia. Amen.

I have recently come to understand that I should keep the Sabbath, not for salvation but because Jesus taught it and God has spoken to me about it. Does anyone have a comment on this?

I cannot help but see this David and Bathsheba thing a type of Christ and the early Church....The early Church had a husband which was the LAW....Thats y Paul was saying you are dead to the law by the body of Christ that you should be MARRIED to another, Even to him that was raised from the dead,...That you should bring forth fruit unto God Romans 7 : 4..That good fruit being the Child of Promise the H.G.

.....This relationship between Christ and the early Church resulted a Child named Christianity but the Child was sick and died in its infancy...Thats y he had to give them up.. Micah 5 : 3 till that which is perfect is come which is Child in REV. 12 V 5...The Kingdom didn't come with the 1 st Child Christianity..The early Church...The Kingdom does not come till the 2 nd Child is born in us The Children of PROMISE Rev. 12 : 10...The Israel of GOD....Bathsheba had to travail a 2 nd time b/f she birth the great king Solomon that God allowed to build that great temple....My lil children of whom i travail in birth AGAIN A 2 ND TIME till Christ is formed in you...Then the Children of the kingdom will be born in us via his words/seeds of the new covenant.

.....Bathsheba was bathing when David took her but she had a husband URIAH ....The early Church was bathin in water Baptism when Jesus took her but she had a husband which was the law...At Horeb Moses married all Israel to the law of Moses....Thus all Israel was married to the law including the early Church...Thats y Paul is saying you are dead to the law by the body of CHRIST that you should be marred to another even to him that was raised from the dead which is CHIRST Jesus Romans 7 : 4 kjv...Bathsheba was dead to Uriah by the body of David even so we are dead to the law by the body of Christ...ok lemme go...Abide in me and i in you...The Kingdom does not come till the woman births the manchild which is the H.G..The Children of PROMISE That Israel of God..... Revelation 12 : 5

Romans 8 is how the born again experience happens: by the law(governing of the Spirit of Life). There is nothing that I am aware of in Roman 8 that refers to the blood. Study the verse you quoted "there is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh by after the Spirit". I would think that returning to immoral sin is walking after the flesh. Ponder this simple verse. Romans 8:13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live." If we miss the transition from Romans 7 (the old life) to Romans 8 (the new life) we have missed the meaning and goal of the Bible. Ezekiel 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

Please pray that I have favor energy strength and do a great job with alertness and that it's not busy at work today and tonight and I can go to the store a few times ijnip

Thank you Suze! May God bless you also and I am sure he has. If you really take a good look at what is going on in this world now it is just crazy and I see signs of the end of times many times a day now. I so hope I am worthy of God when the time comes. Amen

Good morning! How long shall we live in such an evil society that Satan has put upon us? There are so many blinded people for what the Lord has taught us in His word! Didn't Jesus teach us that if the ' blind lead the blind don't they both fall into the ditch'! Isn't the ditch Satan's trap?? When Satan is done using all the ignorant people, he doesn't need you anymore! It wants you to do its dirty work for it so it can be worshipped by you!!!!! False prophets shall come in Jesus's name , dont believe them!! Take heed that no man decieve you!!! Look at the deception going on, nothing but lies from the satanic goverment to try to take GOD and Our Lord jesus from our hearts, minds and souls!!!!! We as true believers , elect will never give into it!!(satan) Nothing can ever take us from the love of God which is in Jesus Christ!!!!! Jesus says in John8-44, 'Ye are of your father the devil and its work you will do'!! It was a liar and murderer from the beginning!!!! What don't people understand!!! Street preacher,TX heard you on Kristi Leigh!! May Jesus bless you and all who stand for His righteous! Give him all the glory, praises,honor and your ALL inside of you!!! Pray for guidance and strength! In Jesus name Amen!!!!

Prayer for my spouse Daron for the issues of heart and the battle of his soul to continua in the Word of God . Prayer for I stand in faith as I approach surgery to have fibroids removed after a long journey. And prayer to be fruitful and multiply!

Thank you all!

Hiya ..ASinner...GBU...Be of a good cheer there is no condemnation to them in Christ Jesus who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit... Romans 8 : 2...For the spirit of LIFE in Christ Jesus ( his blood ) has made us free from the law of sin and death....But we are involved in a war with Satan the tare that is sown in us after Jesus sows the wheat a baby Christ...Thats y he refers to himself as the son of man... Paul was saying when i wd do good evil is present with me....OH wretched man that i am who shall deliver me from the body of this death....I see another law in my members waring against my mind etc...With my mind i serve the law of God but with my FLESH the tare i serve the law of sin.... Romans 7 :25....Remember satan tried to destroy the woman and her Child ...Satan is the God of this present world and he wants to destroy you a Child of God.

.....Jesus said that 2 men will be in one bed but one will be taken and one will be left...The 2 men are just 1 man that has been bornagain by that incorruptible seed a Baby Christ The wheat...but Satan sows a Tare the son of perdition....The Wheat and the Tares makes us two ppl...Thats y Paul was involved in a warfare in his mind ..But in the end the wheat will be taken to his kingdom his barn etc...But the tares will be gathered in bundles and burned... Matthew 13 : 40

.....In the end the manchild which is the H.G. The Spirit of truth is gonna rule all nations with his rod of iron which is the new Covenant that is stronger then iron... outa of his mouth goes a Sharp Sword and he will smite the nations....ok lemme go

Dear D W L., don't all those verses mean that salvation is not secured until we die?

Rev 2:10 "stay faithful until death and I will give you the crown of righteousness/ life". If I don't stay faithful will I get that crown?

As those verses state one has to hold, to fight the good fight, to finish the course, to keep the faith, to be faithful until death, to overcome... in order to get the crown that God will offer him. We have to stay on course and finish our lives being on course in order to be accepted to enter the Kingdom of God in Heaven. If we get back to our previous sinful lives, if we keep being disobedient to God, on that day we will hear Jesus telling us that He doesn't know us. Jesus doesn't know sinners. They are not familiar to Him, they don't belong to His family, they couldn't be His brothers and sisters, they are strangers to Him. The names of those that will not enter Heaven will be forgotten in eternity, like that of the rich man's in the story with Lazarus.

The crown that Paul is talking about, in ancient times was the price for winning a game in sporting events. It was made of olive oil leafs, it was like the gold metal nowadays. But one had to finish the ending line to get it. For Jeaus everybody who finishes that race is a first winner. Lets keep running and God will provide us with His grace to become winners in life.

Please tell us !

Well said and thank you .
