  • Adam - In Reply on 1 John 1 - 2 years ago
    Hi Jim, just noticed your comment about denying Jesus's divinity. People try to do that from time to time, but in order to do so requires cherry picking one verse, twisting it, then ignoring the mountain of other verses in the Bible. In this case you're conflating God's son with the phrase 'sons of God' which was used in a general sense. The same unsound logic can be applied to twist anything else into what you want it to mean. It's pretty hard to deny verses like John 1:1 that clearly say Jesus is God though. It takes mental gymnastics to escape the truth of such verses. Jesus in Isaiah 7:14 is called Immanuel which literally means "God with us" but its up to each person whether they want to accept Jesus or deny Him. 1 John 2:22-24

    Do you consider yourself a Christian? To be a Christian means you follow Jesus Christ and if you don't believe Jesus is Lord then that is similar to what nonbelievers think. Some even admit who Jesus is, but still stubbornly won't accept Him. It's a spiritual battle. Matthew 7:21

    John 14:6 - No one comes to the Father (also God) but through Jesus.

    1 John 5:7 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one."

    John 10:30 "I and my Father are one."

    John 8:19 "if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also."

    Philippians 2:5 - 2:8 "Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:"

    2 Corinthians 5:19 "To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation."

    John 1:3 - All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

    John 20:28

    Pretty hard to disregard all these Biblical truths about Jesus. He became flesh and died for you. Have you tried praying and asking who Jesus is and to reveal that to you?
  • Giannis - In Reply on Philippians 4 - 2 years ago
    The Greek word "PANTOTE" that is translated in English as alway/always here has the meaning "at any time, at all circumstances".

    Of course you don't feel happy when you are ill or hurt or when you loose a person you love.It is impossible to rejoice 24 hours a day, 30 days a month, 12 months a year and so on. The verse doesn't have this meaning As i see it it has the meaning to always trust God snd have faith in Him that no matter what problems come into your life He will never let you down. And even if He decides for His own good reasons to not move away a problem you must still trust Him because His purpose is to get us into His kingdom in Heavens. His grace is on us and sustains us when we face difficult situations.

    And His Spirit gives us joy. The fruit of the Spirit is love, JOY, peace... Galatians 5:22. So it is a necessity for God's childrey to ask for and get baptised in the Spirit of God. And get filled with the Holly Spirit when praying so to have God's power available when needed.

    What is being said to God's people's
  • Jim - In Reply on 1 John 1 - 2 years ago
    That is true what you quoted but it does not change the fact that both are called the Son of God. If they are both the Son of God they both had the same Father. If Jesus is God then Adam is also God. The difference is Adam failed.

    If Adam isn't God then neither is Jesus.

    Jesus had a human mother Adam didn't.

    Also notice in your quotation from Corinthians they are both called man.
  • Adrian Masuca on Proverbs 9 - 2 years ago
    Was having a conversation with a Christian friend of mine, who was so appalled by what was happening in our world. I had to remind my friend, that we "desire a better country, that is, an heavenly".

    If the people of this world want to destroy this beautiful planet earth with their sin, and forget God!?

    Well, I'll let them.

    AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE

    I will serve the LORD!

    Sometimes I think Christians get to involved in the things of this world, and forget what Jesus said "I am NOT of the world" John 17:16-26

    I hope this helps.

    GOD bless you
  • ELB - In Reply on Malachi 3 - 2 years ago
    Rebecca, our pastors take Malachi 3:8 out of context.

    If you read the previous chapters you will see they were tithing, but they were bringing the sick and lame and spoiled grains unto the priest as their tithe. The priest had no land inheritance, therefore the tenth of the harvest, the VERY BEST OF THE HARVEST, was theirs.

    Only products of the land were tithed, salaries and works of man's hands were not tithed.

    All of this was done as a shadow of the TRUE.

    Christ is calling out the tithe or first fruits of the harvest now, in this age.

    Malachi 3:3 And he (Christ) shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he (Christ) shall purify the sons of Levi (the priest), and purge them as gold and silver, that they (the priest) may make offer into the Lord an offering of righteousness.

    1 Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood .....

    1 Corinthians 15:23 But every man in his (God's) own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterwards they that are Christ's at his coming (CHRIST IN YOU).

    Romans 8:23 ....which have the firstfruits of the Spirit ....

    Revelation 14:4 ....being the firstfruits unto God an to the Lamb.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to offer prayer!

    God Bless You
  • Kay - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Thank you, Gigi, for sharing all you did; it gives me more understanding as I pray

    for you and your family! I can see you are a woman of faith! :)

    It seems like work, almost any work, out in the world is so stressful! My sister-in-law was saying

    not long ago that she remembered when she loved going to work, saying how much she looked forward

    to the camaraderie, the fun they had together in between tackling their jobs! All of a sudden - there

    was strife, competition, more pressure from the 'higher ups'...everything went downhill!

    It's funny that my daughter too, has a master's in education, but it was too stressful for her! She now

    works at home for an online store! It has worked out well for her that she can work remotely!

    In any case, the prayers continue Gigi! I there is ever an update to your prayer needs, feel free to share! :)

    Holy hugs in Jesus! :)
  • Kay - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Wise words from the Lord, Gigi!

    I was just talking to my sister on this topic; I have been blessed to see many

    places in this world; there is one sad observation that I've made, and that is that

    there are those who say Christians should not work for money - who are VERY happy to take YOUR

    money that YOU work for!!

    You addressed this situation so well and graciously, I need not expound. I just wanted to

    thank you for sharing wisdom that I know came from above!

    Blessings, dear sister!
  • Suze - In Reply - 2 years ago
    You have not failed as a mother , no way . You are being way too hard on yourself , we can only do so much , at some point our kids assert their own personalities and that's when they decide to do what they want to do regardless of what we've taught them . One day they will understand just how much you loved them and tried to steer them right . Stay strong and loving and you can't go wrong , talk to us on here anytime , it's good to let off some steam . May God bless you all and may He bring you all closer together in love and fellowship , much love in Christ .
  • Kay - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Praise the Lord, S Spencer! I am thankful to the Lord

    that He encouraged you by His Word!

  • Daniel Lindenbaum - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Let me help you out with these two parts brother (by the way, I agree mostly with the above stated because you encourage all to live Holy as Christ ought for us to be):

    "Christians cannot work for money( Matthew 6:24

    Let's take a look at the first statement. Christians cannot work for money. All Christians (although I'll admit - I don't always like doing so) must work/labor. The Apostle Paul worked as a tent maker during his early years preaching. Genesis 3:19 is one curse brought upon man (for the sin man brought into the world) that all men must bare today:

    "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return." Genesis 3:19

    "Christians do Not pay taxes (Render to Caesar what is his and to God what belongs to Him, what belongs to God?)"

    Christ looked at the denarian and realized this is a law of exchange of the world. God know we live in the world but we serve God in His Kingdom. God asked to render unto Caesar (taxes) what belongs to Caesar that all those who live in the world must give to the earthbound kingdom. Then Christ says what is rendered unto him which is to the Eternal Kingdom of God.

    Either one of these may seem desirable but this home is temporary brother. Once we're rejoined with the Lord -- we'll only labor unto him and only render unto Christ Jesus. What a day that will be! I'll see you there and God bless you!
  • BRENDA BRADSHAW - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Thank you!! Your reply means more than you know. My husband and I are both disabled and over retirement age. We have had our Pastor, who is also theirs talk with them. They cry and tell us how sorry they are and they will not put us through this hurt anymore. They are our sons and they were raised in Church. We always told them to choose friends carefully. We read the bible at home and let them as children pick out any subject or verse on their hearts to study as a family. I just can't shake the devil and I know it is him whispering to me that I failed as a mother. Thank you, Suze, Maybe I need a stranger to them but not to God to give them a (KICK) smile.
  • Jc445799 - In Reply on Genesis 3 - 2 years ago
    Yes, better than some of us, but does not believe it.
  • Jc445799 - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Only God determines your time of death. If you kill yourself you have committed a sin for which you cannot be forgiven because you are dead. I have attempted suicide 33 times in my life and every time I really didn't want to die I just wanted the pain to go away. The enemy is saying your life is not worth fighting for and that is wrong. Jesus saved me and I have not had a suicide attempt in 5 years. I may not be spot on with this, but suicide is described in the Bible when Judas Iscariot hung himself after betraying Jesus. Trust in Jesus and you won't need to worry about suicide anymore, because He will take that desire away from you. Hope this helps. God bless.

  • Rebecca on Malachi 3 - 2 years ago
    about Malachi 3:10, why is it used so readily by pastors for tithing? When in

    2 Corinthians 9:7

    "Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.", And in

    1Peter 5:2-3 2 Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind; 3 Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.
  • Christopher - In Reply - 2 years ago
    No I do not know who is rambling on about sin agianst the holy spirit, but the sin of blasphemy agianst the Holy ghost is when you deny God's spirit to work in you. You hear truth and reject it, or you start saying that the work of the Holy spirit is the work of demons. Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil. The sanhedran when they stoned stephen stopped their ears and ran at stephen in anger because the holy spirit pricked their hearts that what he was saying was truth.

    Many times scribes and pharicees picked up stones to kill Jesus because the words he spoke brought conviction through the spirit. They accused him of casting out demons by belzebub. That is classic biblical blasphemy
  • David - 2 years ago
    As saints of the LORD, we should always be in prayer for GOD's intercession and power in our lives. Our nation has taken a page from the Jewish playbook. It has ceased to learn of the LORD's way and taken the way of the flesh and world.

    Our ways no longer resembled the ways of GOD, nor are we raising up GOD fearing, and GOD loving men and women into the fray. V10-14 Then when we are taken into captivity we cry unto the LORD that HE is unfaithful, deaf towards our cries, and unloving in our predicament.

    We allowed the professors of religion from other lands to replace our love of GOD and Scripture. We no longer hold the scepter of wisdom, power, mercy and grace by the LORD'S hand, but we are in the grips of people who have no wisdom in holding and using the great resources that the LORD gave to us for the betterment of our nation as well as those around us.

    We have listened to those who have no desire to help others and desire not to aid the suppressed and those taken captive by false teachings. We have over the years allowed the loud minority to take hold of our voice of reason and Godliness and pushed us to be under their suppressed and evil regime.

    Our path is before us, and well lite according to Scripture. Our Solution is in the name and person of the LORD JESUS CHRIST. Our prayer is for our leaders to find the LORD and fall before HIS throne of grace. We stay on our knees in order for those in positions of authority to be able to walk up right in Godly wisdom, integrity. Praying for the salvation of the lost today. May they find grace and mercy today.

    LORD bless President Biden, and all his advisors. GOD bless all on this forum. May the LORD shine HIS face on all today.

  • Alex N - In Reply on Romans 7 - 2 years ago
    Dr. Lyle Lee Gbu your post is so interesting....Lemme give ya my take on the law a type of Uriah a husband to Bathsheba but Bathsheba was barren under Uriah just as Israel was barrren under the law...At Horeb Moses married Israel to the law just as Uriah was married to Bathsheba...The early Church was married to the law but she had a relationship with Christ Jesus which resulted in a Child called Christianity...Thats y Romans 7 : 4 is saying you are dead to the law ( Uriah ) by the body of Christ that you should be married to another even him that was raised from the dead Christ Jesus...Bathsheba was dead to Uriah by the body of David. Bathsheba was bathin and David was on his roof top when he took Bathsheba ,Jesus had already ascended when he took the church who was bathin in H.G.. baptism...But she had a husband which was the law.

    .....Thus Bathsheba was an adultress as long as Uriah was alive...verse 3 if a woman who is married have another man she shall be called an aduleress but if her husband dies she is no more an adulteress...But the 1st Child was sick which was Christianity and died in its infancy...Bathsheba had to travail Again to get the Child of Promise which was Solomon a type of the H.G. The Comforter that is Gonna make OUR BODIES HIS TEMPLE... Thats y Jesus said a greater then Solomon is here...Thus the H.G. IS GONNA BUILD A GREATER TEMPLE THEN SOLOMON Gal 4 : 19 My lil Children of whom i travail in birth AGAIN .The Church will have to travail again to get the 2 nd Child the H.G. THE Child of PROMISE...She brought forth aman Child that is gonna RULE ALL NATIONS...Which is the H.G that CHILD OF Promise..Thats y Romans 7 : 4 is saying you are dead to the law by the body of Christ that you will bemarried to another even Christ Jesus...Just as Bathsheba was dead to Uriah by the body of David, We are dead to the law by the body of Christ thus we will marry Christ...The 1st Child died but the 2 nd Child is the Child of Promise the H.G.

    JESUS said that we must not work for money and wealth and that God would provide our needs Matthew 6:19-33 and john 6:27

    He told us to sell all

    Luke 11:41 to the pharisees

    Luke 12:33 to the disciples

    Luke 14:33 to the multitudes

    Luke 18:22, Matthew 19:16-30 to the rich guy

    And his disciples approve

    Acts 2:44-45

    Acts 4:33-34

    Luke 18:28-30

    Matthew 4:18-24

    But who will go to heaven

    Jesus and Jacob give us a hint

    Luke 18:24-25

    Mark 10:17-31

    Matthew 5:3

    Luke 6:20

    James 2:5

    But where does that put the rich?

    Luke 6:24-25

    James 5:1-3

    What is the root of all evil?

    1 timothy 6:10

    Genesis 3

    Are we to live under the curse or are we set free by God through Jesus? Because he broke every curse including this one:

    Genesis 3:17-19

    Should we end in the midst of the Sodomites?

    Ezekiel 16:49-50

    Luke 17:28

    But there are days ahead that we would need to learn to trust in Yahweh for Manna his heavenly bread because the mark of the beast is the last form of money as a chip

    Revelation 13

    But if we learn to do these things that Jesus taught we might survive and prevail.
