John 3:1+10 (verse 3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God)

Luke 13:2 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things? (3) I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

If you are living like boyfriend and girlfriend in one house slept in the same bed, there is nothing New for him that initiates him to marry you. If I am mistaken you can correct me. The Bible doesn't support sex before marriage. If you want him to marry you, you must live apart and live holy as the lord is holy. Then eagerness will force you to live together in Marriage.

God bless you, please continue to Pray for us

What does tbis mean?

1 Corinthians 7:21?

Pul does say that when you dont provide you are worse than and disbeliever but he doesnt say if you dont work to provide does he?

Yahweh Jireh?

When you answer anybody speaking about renouncing wealth think "what if he has done it?"

Not "he is challenging us lets ruin his life".

JESUS DOES SAY TO NOT WORK FOR MONEY MATTHEW 6:19-33

He always says sell everything to rich guys? Zaccheus sold half and other gave to cheated dudes.

Peter said"we left all to follow Jesus" luke 18:28-30?

Luke 11:41; luke 12:33; luke 14:33, 18:22 and other

Its prophecied! Buy with No Money! Eat freely without payment! Isaiah 55:1-5.

please pray for Kristie and me and our families remember our lost coworkers

Both my husband and myself had relationships with others before we were saved . He got married and divorced before he was saved , his wife commited adultery several times . I never married before I was saved . When we met each other we were in love in less than a week and have been married for over twenty years now . I don't believe that there is a hard and fast law about this . I know others will disagree and that's ok . I believe that if my husband and I had met when we were young we wouldn't have liked each other much . People change all the time , our life experiences change us , hopefully for the better . I'm not who I was twenty or even ten years ago . God is teaching us things all the time , moulding us into who He wants us to be . He gives us what we need when He knows we need it , I think this is true of our relationships also . He brings into our lives the people that we need or that need us exactly when the time is right . Love is God's most awesome gift . If it knocks on your door don't ignore it . Pray about it , take your time ,but don't slam the door immediately .

Jesus is Lord, the Word in flesh, a Divine Inspiration, and Manifestation of miracles that was born, lived, died, and resurrected in power. All so we could do greater things.

What does mannah means

Hi all dear, now you all talk a lot again. When referring to Timothy about the treatment of church members, it does not agree with paying taxes to the Emperor / King / State. Romans 13 1 Timothy 6:10-12 ALvin Kamberi is right, and all. But The 10 commandments state the importance of what we should worship and honor. God Alone. God must have everything. Colossians 3:12-17 we have no reason to revel and wallow in the riches of the world. Not even Jesus did, though He could fully enjoy all the benefits of the world. He lived soberly and always worshiped God. Gethsemane as described in Luke 22:44 Then He strained so that he sweated blood.

But we must work with our hands

Mark 12:17

Oh, as I wish we Christians could take care of each other, have daily conversations, have daily testimonies, have daily care for each other. Living in a collective. The model was and lives as in the time of the Acts of the Apostles. We have this web then which is a little skin of the real life we should have had :) So I thank you all every day. The apostles sold everything they had and gave to the needy. New members were added daily! Acts 2

:D In English we say woman and man. I hold that all men stand before God in truth as a Spirit with Him.

Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

This is an important strategist in how we should live. At that time, it was probably not men's work and women's work that we like and talk about today. We did not come to the hospital to give birth. Even then, they were equal. But then of course the evil came! Take care of yourself, and do not accept what is free, it can be dangerous.

ohh the space again :D, Jesus loves u all.

You are gods, plural. It's written on the word of God . There is only One GOD Jesus said I AmThe bred of LIFE whosoever who believe in me sahl have Eternal LIFE. GOD IS SPIRIT ... The ONLY ONE WHO Has IMORTALity in Himself By His nature, He answered Moises , I AM WHAT I AM. Jesus was acused by his felow men for acting and speaking as GOD, and revealed to John in Apocalypse thsat Jesus is the Alfa and Omega.

The Bible teaches, that GOD can give Imortality to whom HE wiches, and Jesus said the He wil ressurect all who accept Him as GOD's SON, on the last day, when Jesus shall return in Glory to give His reward.

Jesus said :- Let the dead put the dead ones in the grave, you come and follow me

jesus teaches us who accept Him as the Begotten Son OF GOD, tha we wil have imortality, being like the angels of GOD. The diference is that only GOD is worthy of Adoration. The angel on apocalypse 19 .10 declined being adored saying to John that He should instead Adore only GOD. How Great Is GOD! He is LOVE and LIGHT and LIFE, it wil take us all eternity to know WHO GOD Is and stil, it's writen on the Bible that He IS Wonderfull and we can relate and love Him, but He wil remain Wonderful for ever and ever more eternaly. The point i'm trying to bring to our attention is that extraordinary truth from Jesus own lips , that we may receive imortaslity through eating His flesh and drinking His blood, receiving His Spirit by faith on Him and the wonderful work of God transforming our mind to be like Jesus's mind as man amongst us. salvation is the bigest God's Miracle, by His Mercy and Jesus Faith as man and GOD's SON, when we accept Him as our personal savior and Master and Commander until the end of times and to die for ourselves and that He might live in us by His Spirit. men!

Hebrews 11 is a lot of people known by God who were recorded as doing great things by Faith. Samson was one of those. His mother had trouble conceiving also. He had a purpose to accomplish with his life:

God created you for a higher purpose

In the biblical book of Judges (chapters 13-16) we meet Manoah and his wife, a couple who were unable to have children until God intervened in their situation. More than that, God placed a special calling on their soon-to-be-born son, Samson, even before he had been knit together in his mother's womb.

Samson was handpicked by God to liberate God's people. Samson grew up knowing God's will for his life. His parents made sure he heard the story of how he had been chosen by God before he was born. His marching orders were made clear by the angel of the LORD who had visited his parents. Moreover, God gave him supernatural strength, so Samson had everything he needed to deliver God's people, Israel, from the oppressive hands of the Philistines (see Judges 13:5).

God chose you, and gave you a purpose before you were even born. When God created heaven and earth, he knew that one day you would find yourself right where you are at this moment. You have been created in the image of God, and you were made for a purpose.

It is totally Biblical to pray for your unborn child. God called unborn babies to be prophets for Him.

So tell her I said she is carrying a very special child. It marks a baby in such a good way to read Children's Bible stories to them. They learn the real world, and not fairy tLes.

Gods blessing on you, Mishael

Dear God

Dear Brenda . We are all unworthy disobedient children , a bit like your grandsons , smiley face . It's your choice and what ever decision you make you will have to live with . Is there anyone at your church who could help you ? Maybe someone there could help them get jobs so they could eventually move out and get their own place ? Maybe there's a big strong guy there who could kick them in the butt , either physically or metaphorically . You need some practical help , from a family member or a fellow Christian . Don't be afraid to ask for help . I'm sure that you love them and they probably love you too but they just don't realise it yet . One day they will look back and be thankful to you , but right now you need help , speak up , don't be scared , if I was close by you I would kick them for you . May God bless you and them and may He bring the three of you closer to each other and to Him .

Beloved "Fred", i totally agree with you let us walk wisely, seeking to search and speak the Word of God.

Colossians Chapter 1, And forgive each other's sins, then they are forgiven. When we talk about the unforgivable sin: Are you right: And speaking against the Holy Spirit is unforgivable sin. Who can speak against? Hebrew 6:4 6:5 6:6 Hebrew 10:26-39

So we can think, do I? Do not hope so, then my work will be in vain. And i deliver up with my conscience what i have received from the Lord. Does He throw me then? Out of future hope of dwelling in heaven?

No He has infinite love, angels patience. 70 times 7 is a Heavenly number. Christians will not sin against the Holy Spirit, we believe in the growth Is from the Holy Spirit.

Does the unforgivable sin then lie in what a Christian can do? No.

Unforgivable sin is not receiving the Holy Spirit when He speaks to us. We can dream, we can see visions, we can have sensations of one thing and another in the Spirit.

BUT WHEN THE SPIRIT SPEAKS TO US, we hear so absolutely! He speaks directly to us. Who will not answer Him? He knows all. We know it when the Lord speaks to us who are Christians. Secret: Patience!

It's worse with the others who are outside. Repent and be Baptized.

It is not possible for a Christian at all to sin against the Holy Spirit, then He speaks against us and Himself. What kind of man or woman would throw away the one he has received from God? Then it must be in a state of illness where you do not know what u do. I think it's called psychosis today. Do you not think the Lord can stand against all things!

We are to rest in His Goodness, go to bed and sleep in it, knowing that He has taken control of our lives. So Good God help us all and get the freedom assured and never have distrust of Your Word or Your calling. My help comes from Heaven from God Himself, Jesus Christ who knows how to care for me, my friends, my loved ones. I put my trust in Him.

Repent and be Baptized, in Jesus name. Luke 1

Everything God created is awesome ! Dogs r highly intelligent , affectionate creatures . They r used by us as helpers in so many ways , guide dogs for blind people , police dogs , detector dogs for drugs and other chemicals , they can even detect a dead and buried body . Nothing that God created isn't beautiful .

I'm with Ronald Whittemore on this , thanks Ron for your explanation . To you Vanessa , I think that u were correctly instructed , however , I urge into read the whole Bible for yourself rather than take any of our words for it . The Bible is for every one and the more u read the more u understand , read it all , not just the New . The Old is an excellent illuminator of the New . May God bless your efforts .

Thank you Gigi .

Hello Quentin. As you continue to read in John chapter 10 ( John 10:22-39), you will find that the Jews wanted to enact the Law of stoning for anyone who commits blasphemy (v33); and that Law is found & enacted in Leviticus 24:10-23.

And again the Jews wanted to kill Jesus because of His further claim to divinity ( John 10:34-39). At the first, Jesus claimed that He & His Father God are One (v30) and at the second, Jesus said that He is the Son of God (v36). Both are strong claims that He & God are One in Essence & Purpose. If Jesus had just said that God had sent a special Prophet to bring God's Word to the people, He might have not been hounded as He was - but then Jesus would have lied to save His Skin, which He could never do. But even before His accusers, He remained faithful to His Father & to His Divinity in the Godhead.

The Jews constantly schemed to rid themselves of this Jesus, but Jesus' time had not arrived for His death for mankind's sins. But when they finally accused Jesus for His Claim of being God's Son ( John 19:7), they would have been extremely satisfied when Pontius Pilate finally acceded to their demand ( John 19:16) & ordered His Crucifixion. The Jews finally got rid of this Man who searched their hearts & accused them in their innermost being. Their position & wicked hearts were no longer under Divine Inspection for now, but their sin remained, as Jesus told Pilate, "he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin" (v11).

Dear "Dwight" yes really, In the preface to Luke we learn: Explained to me today that Luke is a disciple of Paul. Until now, I have believed and perceived Luke as Jesus' disciple. Gonna tell you things become obvious in their time! Good luck with the reading, and notice that the Words stay in you. God bless you and yours. Stay in the Word and the Word stays in you, Jesus loves you. Be blessed in His Holy Name, love you in Christ. Chapter 1 Luke

I want prayer for me and my family we are having issues and we are not speaking JESUS touch in ur name my childrens is disrespectful to me and my mother please JESUS in ur mighty name amen

Please pray that my relationship with JF continues to grow. I love his love of being a Christian man. It seems to good to be true.

You may have heard, and can see for yourself, that dog spelled backwards is god. It's unfortunate that you have such disdain for one of God's creatures that demonstrates unconditional love and provides comfort to those who need it and seek it. Saying that dogs are a distraction who offer no value may be true for you but is not universally accepted. Your neighbors may prefer the company of their dogs since they are loyal to them and will not abandon them simply because they do not like others with whom they spend their time (which seems to describe your attitude). It is kind of you to reach out to your neighbors in a caring and supportive way. However, there are countless people who do not have humans who regularly engage with them on a personal level and the companionship offered by a pet is a meaningful relationship which provides them with purpose and love.

Oops Kay, I got the name wrong.

My oldest son is almost 38. He had a time during his college years and 20's where he was depressed. But he finally got a job in his field of computer science and has been very happy with that. He has increasingly had improvement on his emotional and mental state. We praise God for that! He just got married last fall to a Muslim woman. She is very sweet and kind. She is from a foreign country so could only be here in U.S. for three months and had to go back home until she gets another three month VISA. She left Jan. 1st. My son is leaving in a week to spend a month with her. We are praying that she will be able to come back with him with a new VISA. We are praying for her to have an open heart to hear the truth about Jesus and convert to Christianity. We pray that the Holy Spirit will regenerate both of them and bring them to faith in Jesus.

I know that this is long, so I thank you for bearing with me. I still have grief but I do remember to give my sons to God over and over again as I wait for His answers that I trust will be the best for my sons. Thank you for your concern. So many believers face the issue of their children falling away from the faith they once embraced. The draw of the world is so strong on these generations. So many have children who have mental problems and addictions. It is really sad that this has happened to persons who grew up in a believing household and church environment. I know that it isn't given to me to understand all of this and through it all I have found that, indeed there is a time for tears and a time for rejoicing, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing (because they are unwilling and closed off), a time to mourn, etc. But God never fails. We consecrated each of our sons to God as infants. We are waiting for the fullness of God's work in them.

Thank you so much Suze. When two of my sons became vey depressed after 9/11 and then gradually turned away from faith in God, my heart was so grieved. I cried so much and prayed amidst the tears. At one point I prayed. "Lord Jesus, I know that You love my sons more than I ever could and that You are at work in their lives 24/7 and I cannot do that, so I give them up to You and know that You hear my prayers and will answer in such a good way. These sons of mine are Your children and You do wish to save them, so I am trusting You to return them to You."

That has been my prayer and attitude for 21 years. I am praying and waiting on the Lord's answer. I look forward to the time when all of my sons will love and serve Jesus. So, I have much hope! But in the mean time, it is hard to see them suffer.

One of my sons has tried to work as a teacher but gets so mentally anxious and depressed that he has had to go on medical leave both times and not return. This time (this school year) was his second attempt as a teacher. He is now on leave and finally realizes that teaching is not best for him. Bummer that he got a master's in education and will not be using it but will be paying his loans for a long, long time. I am praying for God to lead him into a better career that will not affect him so adversely, that God will heal his mental condition, regenerate him once again and bring to him a lovely believing wife. He is 31.

My second son has been depressed most of the time since he was 14. Unlike my younger son mentioned above, he does not seek treatment. He is now living with us once again. We are happy to have him here. We are reconnecting in some good ways. But he is not very open with us. I pray that He will get treatment that will help him overcome depression disorder as God delivers him. I pray that he will move into a career that can sustain him to be on his own. I pray that God will regenerate him once again and bring to him a lovely believing wife. He is 34

Hi greetings from Highland City my name is Christi Lovejoy

I love this bible website

hope u could make a few better details

Yours Truly, Christi Lovejoy

Earl, glad to have you back. God bless you tonight.

Dear Lynn, I am sorry that things are so hard for you right now. It sounds like you have endured much grief and sorrow. If someone you loved committed suicide, then that is so hard to address. If so, it is important to release that person to God and His perfect judgment. Worrying about someone's eternal place robs us of the comfort and peace of trusting God. I hope you can heal from what has happened and I will pray for you tonight.

Dear heavenly Father, Lynn is so tired and tried by all that has been allowed to happen in her life and in the life of those she loves, She is in need of Your strengthening and peace. Please shower her with these and with the abundance of Your grace and mercy. Fill her heart with good thoughts and emotions that build her up. Your Holy Spirit can do this. We ask You, Holy Spirit to fill Lynn up with Your presence and gracious care. Overflow her heart with joy amidst trials and steadfastness in her faith. Uplift Lynn's soul and bring good into her life at this time. Stop all of the hurtful and negative things from happening in her life. She needs relief that only You can provide. Bring her relief. Surround her with Your protection and power so that the enemy will be thwarted and kept from her. We ask these things in the name of Your Son, Jesus, our wonderful Savior and Lord of all. Amen.

Dear D.E.P., I will pray for you and family tonight.

Heavenly Father, We ask that You be with each family member of D.E.P.'s cousin and comfort them in the loss of this loved and loving fellow. We know that Your compassion fails not, so we trust You to bring to each person needed help through the grieving and pain of this cousin no longer being with us in this life. We thank You that this cousin is Your child and so will have eternal life with You. We lift up the Melissa and her husband as they shoulder the task of supporting dependents and taking care of all matters pertaining to the loss of her father. Strengthen her and her husband and guide them in the settling of all matters. Help them to make wise decisions during this time of grief and fill them with your peace and calmness of spirit during this stormy time. Give them the best words to explain things to these dependents and help Your love to flow through all believers to these family members. We ask these things in the name of Your Son, Jesus. Amen.

Dear T. I agree with you in your prayers for Trinity in Jesus' name.

Dear heavenly Father, rescuer Trinity from this evil living situation swiftly.

Bring her to a safe place to live apart from her father.

Deliver her father from the evil he has welcomed into his life and home. Purge his spirit from want of this evil. Regenerate him and give him faith to believe in You and You alone. In the name of Your Holy Son, Jesus, we speak peace, safety, and power to overcome the wickedness that takes place in Trinity's life right now. Oh Father, be Trinity's fortress, and deliver her. We ask that You do a miracle in this situation because Trinity needs it so much from You. We ask these things, Father, the name of Your Son, Jesus. Amen.

Your conclusion on taxes is utterly false. Christians pay taxes to whatever government is in authority on earth with whatever earthly money they mint under their authority that bears their image and inscription.

God is Spirit and has placed His image and inscription (His word) in our hearts not on any earthly money made by man's hands. Therefore we render our souls and worship to God and cannot render that to Ceasar or his money (or any other earthly government's leaders or money).

Joseph submitted to being registered to pay taxes at Ceasar's decree and only in so doing returned to the city of his ancestral inheritance in Israel under Moses fulfilling God's decree that Mary would give birth to Jesus in Bethlehem. I have no doubt that Mary would have given birth in Bethlehem once she received the angel announcing Christ would be conceived of the Holy Spirit in her womb. But her submission to Joseph who submitted to both angelic dreams and the lawful decree of Ceasar was absolutely critical to Joseph being remembered as having his place in the Gospel.
