    The Bible mentioned 3 Joseph character

    The first is Joseph the son of Jacob mentioned in the Old Testament.

    The second and third Joseph was mentioned in the New Testament who were Joseph the husband of Mary, and Joseph of Arimathaea who was also Jesus' disciple.

    Your comment was on point. I was thinking the same but could not put it into words with understanding. I know jealous played a key role but did not want to used that obvious term.

    Thanks for Sharing

    Neither Enoch went to the 3rd heaven where God sits on His throne as John says only 1 has goner to heaven. Heb11:13 there those mentioned in vrs .:1-12 All died. Elijah didn't as went up in a whirlwinds that only occur is our atmosphere . His followers didn't think so either as they spent time looking for him, Last He some 20 years after wrote a letter to the new king Moses was seen not alive but in a vision of things to come.. And today no one goes to heaven as Ecc.9:1 all who have died are still there waiting for Jesus to return.

    Seeing and understanding what the Lord has done through His Son Jesus Christ, we can never know unless we are living in Him. Looking for evidence outside of His word is walking outside the path of His righteousness. Living in a world that rejects the Gospel will be all the evidence you need to know the truth. Understanding the forgiveness of sin, and why Jesus came ,will come in time to those who love Him!
  • Richard H Priday - In Reply on Revelation 6 - 3 years ago
    The subject of prophecy is complex and as a new Christian 40 years ago something that was often on my mind. The basic crux of theory as to the last generation was that 1948 with Israel becoming a nation in a day ( Isaiah 66:7-8) which was prophesied meant that that was the beginning of that generation. Well; it is 2022; and with Psalm 90:10 pretty well showing the length of a generation being 70 years or 80 at most we are already going to go to at least 2029 before the 2nd coming. (Interestingly the second part of the Psalm 90:10 about "labor and sorrow" do sound like labor pains; but also could just show the natural end of life for the individual.

    Anyway; some say that the fig tree parable assures us of 1948; or perhaps 1967 when Jerusalem was recaptured. That was under the assumption of a 40 year generation when I was a young Christian. Many forget the second part of the prophecy about ALL the leaves ( Luke 21:29 and other gospel passages). This would tie into the land of "unwalled villages" with the Ezekiel 38 war as well; and the prosperity in the land. It would seem that oil and natural resources are beginning to be the "hook in the jaw" for many-whether Russia is Gog; or Turkey and other nations who may fit the bill better. Anyway; it seems that Psalm 83 who discuss the surrounding nations (such as Palestinians) and perhaps Syria would show a war with the surrounding immediate neighbors; and the Gog/Magog the outer perimeter. Probably; the Gulf nations will have prosperity first for a time after Israel begins to expand their borders; and share the economic prosperity with other nations. The peace treaty ideas starting a few years back seems to have the beginnings of Daniel 9:27 and Daniel 11:39 "dividing the land for gain" with all the land and money brokering. It could all happen between the first and 2nd seal but it seems it will be before that.

    For now; judgment begins with the House of God. ( 1 Peter 4:17). Keep the faith! Agape.

    Zechariah 11:17 and Revelation 13:3 show the same thing; the Antichrist who is Satan's representative on earth. He will receive a deadly wound from a sword that will appear on the head as well as withering his right arm. The further representation however is that his authority will be destroyed completely with being chained up and sent to the bottomless pit; then later into hell itself after the Millennium period.

    I thought I would get to Christ last to save the good news for last. Christ was wounded on his feet by the nails at Calvary; as well as his hands as shown in Psalm 22. The crucifixion completed the victory over sin; His redemption for the chosen ones (namely us); and was complete when He died and said "It is finished" ( John 19:30). Christ's body will continue to show the scars to his hands and feet ( John 20). He is the only one who has a glorified body; and since He didn't suffer decay and was resurrected as Psalm 16:10 and others indicate-these wounds are visible as reminders to us for all eternity the price He had to pay.
  • Richard H Priday on Joshua 2 - 3 years ago
    The infamous "Rahab the Harlot" tale. The origin of this person brings in mind Christ's statement in Matthew 21:31. Despite her past trade; this woman was given insight on how God was the true God of heaven and earth. (v. 11). Her reaction was to immediately ask for safety for her family and all that belonged to her. Obviously, the spies were grateful that their lives were spared. One could nitpick about the deception used to remove the men searching for them. It appears that others were aware of those going in and out her house; and the King was quickly informed-perhaps the strategic location and the great fear of invasion has something to do with their hypervigilance.

    Anyway; she is written in Hebrews; as being in the "hall of faithful" in Hebrews 11. She was the great grandmother of David; and in Christ's lineage. The instructions given reminds us of those who escape wrath in other scriptures. She was to wait until they came; which did occur later. She wasted no time in identifying her house with the scarlet cord as instructed to be placed when they returned to invade.

    Once again, she made them swear an oath (v. 12); and they agreed if she obeyed their stipulations and laid their lives on the line to bind it. (v.14) Ultimately; Christ said to make our yea yea and nay nay; and not to swear on anything ( Matthew 5:37). This would be in relation to things between people; not to eliminate covenants with God such as marriage.

    Would it be that we all realize that we are unworthy servants; and take action when necessary when it is prudent to do so. This is one case where no prayer was needed in order to make a wise decision. She was given grace to see clearly what the Lord intended to do; and to be sensible enough to realize He is the true God who would continue to fight for His chosen people.

  • Jeanie S Laborde - In Reply on Numbers 9 - 3 years ago
    Hello my sister.

    Yes born and raised Catholic we were told what the Passover was about which I mention in my earlier statement. But you are right the Catholic through time made it more about the way of the cross.

    But we did start it on Friday and it ends on Sunday.

    As I started reading and studying the bible I realized that men changed the reason for Passover.

    If I did not explain it to that tune I truly am sorry.

    Thanks for your input. Have a Bless weekend my friend.

    Dear Heavenly Father, please set me free personally from every and all bondage that still remains in me. Search my heart oh Lord. Search me and show me what else needs to be broken off of my life and soul. Above all else I need to be a pure vessel. I cannot accomplish that without You Lord Jesus. Use me. Restore what the cankerworm etc has eaten.

    Next, please set Mike free. Break the bondage, I beseech Thee with tears. Set him free Jesus. Also break chains and loose Daniel.Save him . Oh mighty God I pray this in Jesus name. Amen. Be merciful. Save souls. Set men and women FREE today. Thank You Jesus.

    Dear Chimdiebube

    God is Life Itself. The ultimate kind of Life-eternal, self existing, not drawn from any other source but within Himself, never having had a beginning.

    A being cannot exist without life, therefore, God in His essential Being is this Life. in Him is Life. All Life is derived from Him.

    We often think of life as a force or breath or heartbeat, but with God, Life is a Person who is also Love and Truth and all of the other attributes we know about Him. So with God, Life is not impersonal or separate from Him. He exists because He is Life Itself.

    You can google: Why Is God called Life and find out more.

  • Giannis - In Reply - 3 years ago
    Both phrases mean the same thing. They both mean that our sins are forgiven through the sacrifice of our saviour Jesus Christ. We must always bare in mind that Jesus spoke Aramaic and Hebrew and the Gospel was written in Greek, having also in mind that ancient people spoke a bit different than we speak today, they spoke in a more or less poetic manner like philosophers. So some phrases that confuse people when reading the Bible in English translations may be perfectly clear when they are read, say by Greek or Jewish people.

  • Giannis - In Reply on Genesis 4 - 3 years ago
    Since the only people at the time were Adam, Eve, and Seth later , the only thing that sounds reasonable is that Cain's wife was either from Seth's line of generation or from the a line generation from other kids Adam and Eve had. Now you may ask, brothers got married to sisters? Yes that's right, it couldn't have been otherwise since all humans come from our two ancestors Adam and Eve.
  • Marke - In Reply on Lamentations 3 - 3 years ago
    Chastening does not always come as punishment for sins. Job was not being punished for sins when he endured great trials and suffering. Chastening is for correction, for rebuke, for correction, and for instruction. The Lord breaks all born-again believers as part of the growth process.

    John 15:2

    Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

    As Christians grow and begin to bear fruit the Lord purges us so that we may bring forth more fruit.

    Once we begin to gain more victory over besetting sins after we are saved then we become prepared for the next step of Christian growth, which is the refiner's fire.

    Proverbs 25:4

    Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer.

    It is obvious that Joshua did not realise that the warrior who stood in front of him was a God's angel actually.
  • Marke on 2 Kings 18 - 3 years ago
    2 Kings 18:4.

    2 Kings 18:4

    He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.

    Some religious people venerate religious relics, symbols, moments, and so forth, such as splinters from the cross or scraps of fabric from Jesus's burial cloth, and so forth. Such veneration of objects like that is idolatry. Ahaz was right to destroy the brazen serpent Moses had made because people were worshipping it like some sort of holy relic of God. Ahaz called it Nehustan, or a piece of copper or brass. In other words something worth its weight in scrap metal.
  • Giannis - In Reply - 3 years ago
    It means that life comes from God. Life for our material body but eternal life as well through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus Christ.

    Apostle Paul sometimes plays with words trying to give importance to some meanings. So he oftens indentifies a person with a characteristic he has, trying to show how huge that characteristic exists in that person. Also God is love, God is justice, God is truth, Jesus is the way to the Father, Jesus is the resurrection ...

  • David on Lamentations 3 - 3 years ago
    Before us is pain and suffering. Behind us is cold and shivering. Deafening silence abounds about us because our sins have turned the LORD GOD away, "My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD:"

    But the LORD has caused me to remember

    "22 It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.

    23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness."

    Thank YOU LORD for YOU are Righteous and Faithful and will not cast off for ever. V31

    We are in grief however it is not of the LORD'S doing. My Loving GOD has compassion according to the multitude of HIS Mercies. We therefore must not complain for the punishment of our sins.
  • David on Lamentations 3 - 3 years ago
    Continued from last post:

    Because of my transgressions, my enemies and those against my GOD, blaspheme HIS Holy Name and Character. I have given the lost further grounds to mistrust my KING and LORD of my life the LORD JESUS CHRIST. I know that they will receive the recompense according to the work of their hands. They will be covered with sorrow of heart, and cursed, persecuted, and destroyed from the Righteous anger from under the heavens of the LORD.

    However, compassionate LORD GOD, thank YOU as YOU bless all who will turn to YOU and give praise and glory unto the LIVING GOD, the anointed ONE - the LORD JESUS CHRIST. Thank YOU FATHER for hearing our cries and blessing all those who call YOU GOD and KING today.

    I hope and quietly wait for YOUR appearance in the clouds. YOUR saints await the shout of YOUR VOICE "to come up hither."

    Our wait for the LORD should be a "working" while waiting. Reminds me of an gospel song:

    "Sowing in the morning, sowing seeds of kindness,

    Sowing in the noontide and the dewy eve;Waiting for the harvest, and and the time of reaping,

    We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves"

    "Bringing In the Sheaves" Written By Knowles Shaw; Psalm 126:6

    I pray LORD for YOUR intercession regarding Russia/Ukraine. Our President Biden and his administration turns to Your wisdom and lean not unto his own understanding. Praying for comfort and peace unto those who are contemplating abortion; that they find joy and love in Christ Jesus.

    Thank You LORD for hearing and answering our cries and supplications.

  • GiGi - In Reply on Numbers 9 - 3 years ago
    Hi Jeanie,

    From my understanding and experience Catholics and some Protestants celebrate what they call Holy Week which includes: Palm Sunday (Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem - Luke 19:28-40), the Last Supper on Thursday ( Luke 22:7-38); Jesus' agony in the garden, betrayal, trial, scourging, and crucifixion ( Luke 22:39-23:1-49), his burial and entombment,, ( Luke 23:50-55), and His Resurrection from the dead ( Luke 24:1-12; Matt. 28; Mk. 16; Jn 20-21), but not the Passover in the sense that the jews celebrate it. This week of celebration is pointedly centered on Jesus our Savior, which the Jews do not celebrate because they reject Jesus as the Messiah. The Passover is a memorial of the passing over of the Israelites in Egypt by the angel of death and the hasty meal before they fled from Egypt (In Exodus).
