I feel the same as you. Don't seek after a particular "gift", but seek the Lord and desire to be used of Him in whatever way the Spirit leads me to do, say, or refrain from doing or saying. We walk by the Spirit of God who lives in us, to do all for the glory of God and benefit to our fellow men and women. We take care of ourselves in order that we can be ready and fit for service.
as one surgery patient to another," trust in the Lord with all of your might." I had hand surgery yesterday and will have foot surgery on Friday. I just hope and pray that the reason for your surgery will be resolved by it without complications, worries, or additional treatments. Keep me posted, please.
3Johnv11
Yes Jesus was conceived in Mary as a human baby. The humanity of Jesus had a beginning, but the divinity of Jesus (God the Son) never had a beginning.
John 1:1-4 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was Go. He was in the beginning with God. all things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men." (NIV)
john 5:26 "For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself." (NIV)
John 11:25 "I am the Resurrection and the Life." (NIV)
What I was saying was that The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are all equally eternal, without beginning, and that Life is who they are which makes them self-existent, not having acquired life from anything outside of themselves. Jesus is eternally God the Son Who took upon Himself an additional nature to His divine nature, that is human nature. In Jesus is these two natures in one Person. His human nature had a beginning, but His divine nature existed eternally.
Thank you for asking for clarification.
2 Corintians 5:17
Be brave and strong, Joshua 1:9 and that's how it will be. You understand that something good can come out of all the misery. The most important thing for a human being to be saved!
God wants everyone to be saved and come to the knowledge of truth. 1 Timothy 2:1-4 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
It can often seem unfair, but it is man who is unfair. God is not Unjust, and He is not tempted by any evil. The unrighteous comes from the wickedness of man in a world full of hatred. James 1:13
Even the Word of God can cause pain if you do not live right with the Lord. For there have come days when we cannot bear to hear the right doctrine.
Romans 2:7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:
8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,
9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;
2 Timothy 4:1.8
God bless us all when He want, Jesus loves u i in Christ.
14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
15 And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.
Be glad in Jesus, love u in Christ.
Jesus was without sin but in a human body, BORN of a woman with flesh, muscles and bones. At least it's safe! He ate and then everything will come out naturally, right. Our Savior was and walked the earth like us! But after His death, Mary recognized His tone/soul;
John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
What was His intention with that? And say do not touch Me. Clearly He understood that she would then have been completely confused. For others there they did not recognize Him, but she did. There was nothing to feel. He was a Spirit!
He really had a lot to do in those 40 days he was in this spirit world. He freed the prisoners who had gone before.
For afterwards, when the disciples had not yet received the Holy Spirit, they did not know Him either. They did not even dare to ask Him if He was the Lord! So in the last chapter of John we read about this. So here on Earth, Jesus was before the Son of Man, then He became Spirit. Then at Pentecost He give away the Holy Spirit. So we must not think that we will no longer have a body that needs food and the necessity of emptying afterwards. All the food we then get is from Jesus.
So then we may see the Face of God. But in Earth life we can not. Then we must die. God knows how to hide. Now we are hidden in Jesus Christ.
Hope to see you all a in a different form, and that we can recognize each other in the special way a soul has. God bless us in Jesus Name, love u in Christ.
God had really only designated souls (Earthbound) to mankind. Now, does that mean animals should be treated without care or less? By no means.
Proverbs 12:10 - A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel.
Proverbs 27:23 - Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, and look well to thy herds.
Knowing there is also no mention of a heaven for animals the same. The best you can do (especially if they're your pets) is to treat them with love and care as this is the only side of the grave they were created for. There's something particularly sweet about those who have mercy for God's creation.
These are the verses I would recommend to someone who is curious about what the Bible says about any substance abuse (over-eating, alcohol, drug addition, lusts of the flesh, etc). It's a bondage and as much as it leads to a spiritual death...it most certainly can/will lead to a much more abrupt physical death.
Romans 6:16
"Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?"
If our members be yielded to substance...which route will it lead to: death or of obedience unto righteousness? There is nonsuch righteous in smoking but only an eventual death as we destroy the temple which God has given to us.
Not to sound hypocritical either...some years back I was given into smoking (not cigarettes but something far worse). That which I did affected not only my spiritual body but the Spiritual. I sincerely believe that God's going to judge me swiftly for these things too. I fear God and I know that will be a day of shame for me. But, I had a choice not to do it and I disobeyed. You too have a choice and there's always time to quit. Place 100% of yourself in Christ Jesus and His Word. There is no cure great than Jesus Christ and His Golden Gospel.
I was told years ago God wants to heal me from my hurt. I could think of anything even the sins I had already commites. Just this year it can to pass what hurt He spoke about. My grandmother die and my biological mother lived in a very violent world. I was so angry with God and hurt. Is it possible His has forgiven me for rebelling all those years ago? He has been extemely good to me and I am happy with Him. Amen!
Isaiah 40:31 - But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Psalms 130:5 - 127:6 - I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope. (Read More...)
Psalms 37:7 - Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
..... Gal. 4 : 19 KJV...My lil children of whom i travail in Birth till CHRIST IS FORMED IN YOU...And the mystery of the Kingdom of God is Christ in you...Unless you receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in NO wise enter there in....In my mind Ecclesiates 11 : 5 is a picture of the new Birth....Christ is gonna be formed in us which is the H.G. that Child of Promise...Thats y he has to know us thats when that good seed is sown in our hearts initiating a birth of Christ in us...the H.G.
.....Thats y Peter is saying being Bornagain of an incorruptible seed even by the WORDS OF GOD that liveth and abideth for ever...Meaning the living words....Its that living word that forms Christ in us....Which is spirit and life the H.G. as that which is born of the spirit is spirit which is our new innerman the H.G. that Child of Promise.
....Whosoever receiveth one such CHILD in my NAME receiveth ME....In that this heavenly Child comes in HIS NAME implies he is the Father of these Children....The babes and sucklings he mentions are his Children which are Spirits the H.G. that are gonna be formed in us via his good seed the word....And in that they are the Children of PROMISE they are gonna be as the Stars of HEAVEN IN MULTITUDE....God Almighty swore by Himself when he made that Promise.
....But this Ecclesiaticus Book is a different book which is in the Catholic bible that i know nothin about.
Proverbs 10:26
As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him.
