My question is should a gay couple be allow to attend a spirit filled church as a couple? I know they should never hold any position in a church while living this kind of life. I have always wondered about this.

God bless you, David, and Kristie, too. The old hymn, 'Amazing Grace', holds a special place in my heart, because one verse is so true regarding my own life's experience, and I'm sure many believers can say the same:

"Through MANY dangers, toils, and snares, I have already come; tis grace that hath brought me safe thus far, and grace shall lead me home'.

Wherever you and Kristie are right now - in dangers, in toils, surrounded by snares - look back and see from where God has brought you both to this point; you have already both, no doubt, been recipients of amazing mercies! God has been good...and shall His goodness cease now? NO. It never will.

His ways are mysterious, but His will to us is good. That fact was the pronouncement of the angels the night of Christ's birth, "..and on earth peace, GOOD WILL to men". I am believing God with and for you both, that His good will be manifested to you both, then in you both, and then through you both.

Sometimes, through challenging circumstances, if we go through them with God, He digs 'channels' in our hearts by those tools, in which He later lets mercy flow out of us to others in similar circumstances.

Don't despair. God really is good - all the time.

Blessings to you and Kristie, David.

May God forgive my anger but I am fuming . My step sister , who is my step dads only biological child , who lives about one hundred miles away and only visits about six times a year , visited her dad and my mum yesterday . I wasn't there . She brought , into a house with two terminally ill elderly people , both with serious mobility issues and an elderly cat , her spaniel puppy . Some how , all of them ended up on the landing at the top of the stairs , the dog was frightening my step dads beloved cat , so he was trying to pick it up to protect it and....he fell all the way down the stairs and banged his back , full force on the metal pipe that the stair lift runs on . He's now in bed , can't get out , doesn't want to eat or drink and won't have a doctor . My step sister just left them there yesterday , she drove home . She has an eighteen year old daughter at home and she herself works from home but she just left them and went home. I am soooooooooooooooo angry .

Please , remember Bill and Anita Marshall in your prayers . Please may God bless them both in all the ways that He knows they need His blessings most . Thank you all so very much . Much love in Christ .

May God bless and comfort you and all your Mother's family , much love in Christ .

Bro. Dan i love ya...But if righteousness came by the law Christ died in vain...And the cross was just foolishness... Gal 3 : 21 kjv

Amen! Just reading these verses tells us about what happened back then in Egypt and about the promise of Salvation to come of the New Covenant...

Exodus 12:13

"And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt."

...when I see the blood, I will pass over you...

Thank God for sending His Son and covering us with His Blood.

Edward,

Please read the word of God and pray to God for understanding through his Holy Spirit. God makes it simple for us to understand. For example, a simple easily understood verse like this:

John 14:15

"If ye love me, keep my commandments."

This is Jesus telling us to keep the 10 Commandments. Many people have figured out all kinds of ways to twist this verse to mean the opposite of what it clearly states.

I disagree with you, there is no need to read between the lines. When we make Gods word's more complicated than they should be, we outsmart ourselves.

We should be obedient to God's written word. The bible puts forth a wonderful message of Love, Forgiveness, and Salvation.

Keep it simple! If we walk with Jesus, it is easy to understand.

God Bless.

If we were to go by what people feel or think then Baal might be their God, if it isn't in the word leave it alone.

Not I feel, or I think, but the word that we are given by holy men of God as they were moved on by the Holy Ghost.

I Timothy 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

Titus (2nd chapter) 2:4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, v5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed

About my grown girls come back to and forgive me and to keep me and my true live together and my health

Jesus never "venerated" Mary above what a typical son would respect his mother. Mary "worship" is not biblical and therefore a sin!

Is not Luke 21:36 Proof of a pre-tribulation rapture? Pray you may be found worthy to escape these things. Escape what the Tribulation just described. I believe scripture as a whole makes a pre-tribulation rapture clear. Jesus taught it in John 14!

god has done so much in my life

please remember Kristie and me and our families in your prayers

Praying for you and family Sister ,

In exodus 4:21= I will harden=I will embolden; Hebrew idiom active verbs of doing are used of suffering or permitting a thing to be done.

Ro. 9:18 (hardeneth=suffereth to be). eg.

here; Hebr. hazak to brace or tighten up (opposition to relax); This particular use is used 13 times.

GOD didn't do anything that Pharaoh and the leaders were already willing and going to do. GOD allowed him to burden the people just as HE allowed Satan to test Job. Pharaoh considered himself a god and caused the people much hardship with his insatiable appetite for building. Many Israelite's would have died if HE didn't do this. GOD will not turn a person to do evil; it is your choice and free will to do so.

Amen ELB...GBU....I will MULTIPLY thy seed as the stars of Heaven...And that was the only Promise where God swore by himself.

Gen 22 : 16 - 18 kjv...Thus Christ will be multiplied as the stars of heaven...And thats y the sower will go forth to sow his SEED in HUMANITY....Resulting in our heavenly birth...Thus that New COVENANT....

......She brought forth a man Child Rev. 12 : 5 ...The Child is the result of that GOOD SEED which is the H.G. that Child of PROMISE....The multiplication of very GOD IN HUMANITY....That good seed is Spirit the LIVING Word thus the WHEAT IS THE H.G

..That Child of PROMISE....Behold i send the PROMISE of my Father upon you which was the H.G. the multiplication of very GOD IN HUMANITY.....That which is born of the spirit is spirit a baby Christ the H.G...She brought forth a man Child a baby Christ the H.G.....Thanks Bro. Earl...GBU Exceedingly in Jesus NAME

Response to Fred Scanlan.

The modern gospel message to the whole world is "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved."

Acts 16:30

And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?

Acts 16:31

And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

I try to catch my upper/lowercase slip ups. My finger have a slight bit of arthritis.

I have a newly retired Military friend that told us what the men do there. Depraved things. You know what, they are spewing Mahdi prophesies on YOUTUBE too.

YouTube will ban you for life (like me) for leaving comments that their religion is false and cruel; or for them to actually read a Christian Bible.

I got kicked out for saying the Messiah came to earth, 2000 years ago. I'm bad :/

I thank God for your beautiful new faith in Jesus. Keep coming back here. Ask any questions. We will pray for your inner hurts anytime.

Mishael

How can I obtain the Bible with all these books again for I had one as a child. Thank you And your biblical work is well done ....amen

If you have an cellphone you can Google COMPLETE KING JAMES BIBLE ONLINE; or the NIV or other versions. You can save it on your Google page or you can download it.

This website has a full Bible too. It's on the red/brown LINK PAGE where you come into this website.

You can look up scriptures in the SEARCH BOX too.

I find many clean, good condition Bibles at Goodwill stores. Walmart Carrie's Bibles too. Look to see which version you are buying; inexpensive too.

Jealynn; You are so right. I book marked this passage way back when people in the name of GOD started beheading Christians because they were Christians. Along with Revelations 20:4. GOD warned us not to seek HIM in churches that don't teach the WORD of GOD but pass a plate around and say a verse and the rest of the hour they tell their congregation of a fishing trip they had Saturday. People who sat in church pews their whole life but never been taught the WORD of GOD will be the first ones taking by the anti-Christ who comes first. They are told you don't have to understand Revelations you will be gone. Anti-Christ will be coming after Christians not the rest of the world, he already has them. Coming after those who claim to be Christian but are not taught the true WORD of GOD. Those who have eyes to see and ears to hear are watchful as commanded. You have people who want to run away from the biggest fight of the ages that even the profits wanted to be in these times. The deception will be great for what they were taught. I plead to anyone who reads this to turn away from false doctrine before it's too late for In an instant at the 7th trump you will be so ashamed that you were had, that you want mountains to fall on you but you will not be able to hide your shame from the KING of kings.

Try to imagine, standing eating hard bread, waiting for the angel of death to pass over your house.

You have just sprinkled blood on your door with hyssop, and covered your doorposts with the blood of this same lamb.

God hardened Pharaohs heart! He hardened it to this point, that He would see the death of the children under His kingdom!

This is not a fable, as many would like to believe! This is the revelation of the prophecy that would come in the life of Christ, the savior of the world!

Do not think that God does not have the power to change hearts for the worse! If He can move hearts for the worse, what will be your outcome?

Will you continue to deny Him as Pharaoh? Or perhaps you are like Pharaoh, and think you have all the power!

I remind myself again, that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God! There is none righteous ,no not one! That if not for the shed blood of Christ, we too would have the same fate as the little children in Egypt!

Repent and be baptized

I don't know that song, but think its good to be discerning when it comes to singing words written by men. Saying the Bible out loud is safe as it's God's Word, but singing words written by men has the potential to mislead and go astray.

Example: there's a song with lyrics "Our God is greater, our God is stronger God, You are higher than any other."

This was confusing to someone I knew who came from another religion and said to me she hated this song, because instead of believing in one God, it suggests we believe in other gods. Secondly, it may come across as immature, cocky or boastful, like "my dad can beat up your dad" or "my God is better than yours". So, I understood that point and cannot sing such a song with a clear conscience.

There are many other songs that are popular in Christian radio that I also don't agree with, so I believe it's good to be discerning and take our words seriously and not fall into false teachings.

Generally I dislike contemporary Christian music as much seems to want to please the culture rather than worship God #1. I miss older music that just praised God with simple, but effective and clear words. Today, I see a lot of emphasis and attention on sound checks, song transitions, guitar solos, name brand speaker systems, stage lighting, and expensive gear designed for performances. But do broken people really need such materialism or level of professionalism? Broken people just need Jesus and want to escape the trivialities of the world and not see the same thing infiltrating in churches. Even some pastors try to dress and style their hair a certain way to try to look cool. I think all this is shallow. Emphasis should be on preaching the gospel, that's it. The more raw and less fancy the better in my opinion.

Other phrases from Christian songs with unclear meaning:

"Iraise a hallelujah, Heaven comes to fight for me" - Heaven does?

"these.bones.will.sing" - Bones?

Romans 14:4, John 13:34,35,

Matthew 25:31-46

Yes, we did witness the total Lunar Eclipse.

What do you mean by petals?

I just felt there was something significant in my Spirit the last few days, that me & my family should read GOD's WORD & seek his face much more than usual. I was suprised to find out about the Totality & went outside to see GOD's wonder. Genesis 1:14,

Amen. Our lack of faith holds back the Hand of God. May we fully trust in the God of the impossible.

The Super Flower Blood Moon lunar eclipse of 2022 occurs tonight! See if you can see the "petals"

So, so sad to get this news, GiGi. Your precious Mother is now relieved from all pain & discomfort & with the Lord Whom she loved & longed for. "With Christ, which is far better". May you & her family receive the Lord's unending Peace & Comfort at this time & for the days ahead. "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning", in the coming day when we will all be together beholding the Face of our Blessed Lord Jesus.

"When we all get to Heaven, What a day of rejoicing that will be! When we all see Jesus, We'll sing and shout the victory!"
