    The Bible tells us that the Israelites were to eat only unleavened bread every year during Passover as a commemoration of the Exodus from Egyptian bondage. Since the children of Israel left Egypt hastily, they did not have time for the bread to rise. Deuteronomy 16:3: "Do not eat it with bread made with yeast, but for seven days eat unleavened bread, the bread of affliction, because you left Egypt in haste-so that all the days of your life you may remember the time of your departure from Egypt".

    In the Bible, leaven is symbolic of sin. The NT makes this very clear. ( Luke 12:1; 1 Cor. 5:6-7; Gal. 5:9) Like leaven that permeates the whole lump of dough, sin will spread in a person, a church, or a nation, eventually overwhelming and bringing its participants into its bondage. The bread that Jesus and broke would have been unleavened bread, which Christians are told to take and eat also.

    I'm not sure what you mean by asking about calling Jesus the son of David, but there is this verse:

    Matthew 1:1

    The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

    No Adam you do greatly err Paul had the H.G. But Paul said when i wd do good Evil is present with me...So with my mind i serve the law of God but with my flesh the law of sin...Adam we are involved in a warfare after we are saved and filled with the H.G...Satan keeps on fighting us even after we are saved...Jesus wants sow a good seed in us but after the GOOD SEED is sown in us...Then satan sows a tare in us...We do not get rid of Satan the tare till the harvest...Even after we are saved Satan is trying to kill us spritually...Jesus said at the harvest i will say to the reapers gather up the tares in bundles and burn them...But the HARVEST IS THE END OF THE WORLD...But gather the wheat into my barn...His kingdom

    ....Adam yes sin is Satan...ANYTHING not of FAITH is sin...and all sin is of the devil SATAN...As he is the God of this present world...When Jesus said you are of your Father the DEVIL thats b/c of sin...Our carnal minds is Satans Seat as Rev 2 :13..John was writing to the Angel at the Church at Pergamos and he said i know where thou DWELLEST even where SATANS SEAT IS ...In the mind of man...our carnal minds is the very enemy of God according to Romans 8 : 7...We are 2 persons the wheat and the tares make us 2 persons...thus the warfare, the 2 men in 1 bed is really just 1 person that has been bornagain thus the wheat and the tares make him 2 persons...The wheat will be taken but the tares will be burned.

    ....Adam Jesus plainly tells us Outta of the hearts of man proceeds ALL MANNER OF EVIL....( Satan )...That should tells ya something about our carnal minds being in rank with Satan.

    .... 1ST John 3 : 8 All PEOPLE that practice SIN is of the Devil Satan, for this cause was the Son of God manifested that he might destroy the works of the Devil ( satan )....Mans carnal mind has to be renewed we all need the mind of Christ.

    .....Adam.... Rev 22 : 3 John said he saw no more Curse this implies no more Adamic Nature , no more SATANS SEAT...Gbu Adam...

    This could this stem from early childhood experience? We tend to attract what we expect on a sub-conscious level. Don't let others determine your own self-worth. Build yourself up by repeating relevant scriptures: What does God say about you? The Gospel reveals your value - Christ died for you; you are fearfully and wonderfully made; you are a child of God, and you are loved with an everlasting love.

    i just love reading the bible. its soooo intresting and i also like the bible trivias
  • Dorothy Healy - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Most scholars believe that the words adamah, Adam, and Edom stem from a root word with the basic meaning of "red." The word adamah could then be more literally translated "red ground," and the name Adam could be said to mean "red man" or "man from the red dirt."

    When Rebekah gave birth to Jacob and Esau, we read: 24 When her time came to give birth, there were indeed twins in her womb. 25 The first to come out was red, and his whole body was like a hairy garment; so they named him Esau. Esau becomes known as Edom from his foolish decision to trade his birthright and father's blessing for some red stew. Of course, Esau was the brother who did not inherit the father's blessing and I believe he represents the fleshly nature of man. The two brother's theme in Genesis is very interesting in this regard.

    Why do some Christians choose not to witness?
  • Dorothy Healy - In Reply - 2 years ago
    The Beatitudes is a carefully constructed teaching on the way of salvation and entry into the Kingdom of Heaven, and acknowledging the poverty of our spirit is where our spiritual journey begins. To be spiritually poor is to acknowledge there is something missing deep inside of us. This acknowledgment brings about the repentance necessary for salvation, and opens the door to the Kingdom of Heaven.

    Following this we have blessed are those who mourn . It is the Holy Spirit that brings our internal poverty and brokenness to the surface, and the mourning we experience here can be very deep; our hearts are then prepared to encounter the comforting of the LORD, as promised - a comforting we have never before known.

  • Cindy R Wiggins Tapia - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Dear Melissa, though I do believe in laying on hands during prayer for God's healing or guidance such as in ordination, the age of miracles such as the times of the apostles ended when the last one went to be with Jesus. I can think of nowhere in the Bible which teaches us to go about healing people.

    Jesus commanded us to bring souls to Jesus. Mark 16:15 "And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature," so that they have a chance to be saved. Being born again is more important than anything in this world, including health, because a healthy body will not save one from hellfire. Jesus is the only way to Heaven. John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

    Speaking in Tongues

    4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

    5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.

    6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.

    7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?

    8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?

    Speaking in tongues means speaking in a "foreign language". It was the miraculous ability some early Christians had that enabled them to speak a language without first having learned it. The speaker was easily understood by anyone who knew that language, the first occurrence was on Pentecost. God gave this gift so that early Christians could spread the Gospel without foreign language being an obstacle.

    Bless you.

    How could anyone refer to Jesus as the Son of David? Knowing what David did in His life! Let alone his contribution to the scriptures found in the psalms. He is the man who committed murder and adulteries.

    What was it that saved David? His repentance, His suffering, is that enough to reconcile us back to God? Would writing books be enough to sanctify oneself, somehow, someway? How did David know He was forgiven and reconciled!

    This question, of knowing the forgiveness of sin without works is indeed daunting!

    This I do know, there is nothing in me that is good, that even compares too a man such as Christ.

    How can I receive the confidence, with the knowledge that I have been forgiven for Christ sake?

    Is it possible to KNOW? Even as David knew? Or perhaps He was living in a dream world suffering dementia for all He had been through! What evidence is there? That I am a knew creature? What does it mean too be forgiven of sin? This is truly a mystery!

    What is even more mysterious is how it effects you and me!

    His promises are all I have! His promise is, that I am now His Son! If you knew me, you would say, how can these things be? You see, now that I am come from the same seed, I am as He is. These things I have nothing to do with!

    Only by His mercy, His death on the cross do we receive these things.

    Godliness can only be found in Christ, with the forgiveness of sin.

    We are no more servants, but now we are as He is , Kings in the household of God!

    Dear Mishael , it's impossible to hate you ! No matter what , I have unconditional love for you so don't worry ! Be yourself , I like yourself !
  • Mishael - In Reply on Romans 5 - 2 years ago
    A Jewish historian offered this date:

    The Great Flood (known as the mabul in Hebrew) was sent by Gd in the year 1656 of Creation (2105 BCE), to cleanse the earth of mankind's corrupt ways. The only survivors were Noah, his family, and representatives of every living species, who found refuge in a specially designed ark.

    The story is told in detail in Genesis 6-11, which form the Parshah of Noach.
  • PraiseTheLordJesus - In Reply - 2 years ago
    1 Timothy 5:22 - healing / lay on hands

    1 Corinthians 14:33 - speaking in tongs means speaking in another language to praise God, not babbling or growling. This babbling

    that happens in the charismatic gentile "church" is demonic.

    The question if we have healing power through the Lord is not easy to answer. Prayer for sure, but like the apostles did..

    no because this was for a sign.
  • Matthew 5:3 meaning - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Jesus begins by saying that the poor in spirit are blessed. This is not a reference to money or finances. To be "poor in spirit" is the opposite of being self-confident or self-reliant, especially in any spiritual sense. The poor in spirit recognize they are incapable of providing for themselves by their own strength, goodness, or righteousness. They know themselves to be spiritually bankrupt of true goodness. They cannot hope to bargain or earn their way into the kingdom of heaven.

    Jesus says, though, that they are blessed because the kingdom of heaven is theirs already. In other words, admission that one does not deserve a place in God's kingdom is a requirement for entrance into that kingdom. This is the opposite of assuming one has earned citizenship by his own merit.

    Even as part of a sermon from Jesus, these words need to be understood in careful context. Jesus is not teaching, in this one single verse, every detail of the plan of salvation. As He continues to teach, Jesus will be clear-and the New Testament will emphasize-that nobody comes to the Father except through faith in Christ for the forgiveness of sin.

    A corresponding attitude to salvation is that of being poor in spirit. The kingdom of heaven will be populated by the humble and not the arrogant. In that way, the poor in spirit are blessed.

    Dear "Sonia Anderson", i know like you + a very blessing of and could serve some of the Lord's beloved here on the web with words of wisdom in due time, prayer and conversation. I thank you all on the web every day, my heart is full of gratitude for the website.

    And for u be comforted that you need no money and learn the Word of God, the Holy Spirit does the job best of all! :) Many times a person may not know what is best for themselves. But God knows.

    It never goes wrong if we hear His voice before our own. Otherwise, it is important that you get the lessons you want, you will find everything in here if you look, Good luck and put KJV as a shortcut on your screen, it is wise.

    Stay blessed in Jesus Name, love u in Christ. Advice: Emphasize and read God's Word every day, and He will open up the scripture to you. 1 Corintihans 12:1-31

    Hello dear brother "Mishael", in the Spirit, I will never hate you. And the color chart codes could not google understand.

    Not me either, what do you mean?

    Stay blessed in Jesus Name, love u in Christ 1 Corintihans 11-34
  • Free - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Dear "Paula", this was a good question. Together with Jesus we have the Holy Spirit, soul and body.

    And one thing is for sure. With knowledge also comes responsibility. We have always heard that we should help those who are weaker, so even if we consider ourselves important. We are not at all before God, there we are equal. But when one is poor in spirit like here. Then i see most children, those ppl who are demented, those who have not heard the word of the Lord and received it openly. Innocent people who have not experienced the Holy Spirit. These are weak in the Spirit.

    But if this applies to the believers who then know everything, i do not know how it goes. Maybe someone else on the web knows?

    Because we know good and bad, right? The apostle Paul has something interesting to say in 1 Corinthians 11:17-34

    Maybe you got some clarity :)

    Stay blessed with all your mind and spirit in the Name of the Lord Jesus, love u in Christ.

    I'm struggling with what church is right, healing , tongues etc.. laying hands to heal can we Christian have the power to heal through Christ? Should we be going around asking people if they need healing and lay hands on them to pray?

    Dear Adam,

    Thank you for listing all of these Scriptures for people to reference concerning the triunity of the Godhead. Some just will not believe these verses because their minds are set. But hopefully there may be some who will read them and understand this Scriptural truth and believe it.

    We keep up the good fight!
