    Thanks

    Jesus never said leaven was bad, but identified whos leaven we are to beware of.

    The Pharisees, Sadduces, Scribes, and Rabbi's arose from the Babylonian captivity

    Where the Talmud and Mishnah were created and formalized. They gained immense power among the Jews since they had the "copies" of the Torah and so were the official interpreters of it using the Talmud and Mishnah as their guide.

    I read that somewhere in these writings is said that the Rabbis are qualified to teach God on the Torah! How awful is that! Thinking that God is not all-knowing and does inderstand His own Word!

    But we who are in Christ are to be the leaven in the church, increasing its members by sharing our faith and leading unbelievers to Jesus and His Word. We also are used as leaven when we discipline believers by growing and expanding their knowledge and understanding of the Word, thus the need for pastors and teachers in the church as well as

    Mature believers mentoring younger believers.

    Hi Miloy spear What a statement and the single most important statement that someone can make. Jesus said to Love God first, and then your neighbor. Thank you Miloy for this word of encouragement. May your life be full of God in Jesus name I pray.

    Abba Father I present to your throne Ellen. She has cancer. You know her needs. I ask that you open the windows of heaven and pour her out a blessing where she will not have room enough to receive. Send your miracle working and healing power to your servant. Heal her in Jesus name for your glory and not ours. I ask this in Jesus name.

    Can a prophet be anointed by both priesthood
  • Robert Taylor - In Reply on 1 Corinthians 15 - 4 years ago
    Yes, I have just read the book of Galatians, again. I know that Paul was having trouble with the Pharisees in particular about wanting Paul's converts to be circumcised, according to the law of Moses. That is where they sent a delegation to Jerusalem, to James and Peter, and the other Apostles. Both sides presented their case there. After much discussion, Peter rose up and told his story of how he was led to go to the house of Cornelious, who was not a Jew, for it was an unwritten law that Jews were not to go to non-Jewish homes. Once there Peter saw how the Holy Spirit had worked with Cornelious's family, and could only agree to spend time with them, teaching them all the more. Thus, it was decided that Paul's converts did not have to be circumcised, as was not Cornelious's family was not either.

    Thus the book of Galations refers to Paul's teaching that his converts, by way of them having not to be circumcised, were to be followed, and no other gospel/teachings of others, was to be followed.

    In no way does Galations mention God's Ten Commandments, which were written in stone, signifying that they were never be changed. Have you read Daniel 7:25 "He shall speak pompous words against the Most High, Shall persecute the saints of the Most High, And shall intend to change times and law."

    God, the Most High, is never caught "flat-footed" so to speak. Back in the time of Daniel, He knew that there would be a power that would in the future "think" to change God's Law,l that dealt with time". God's laws can never be changed, only man can think to change His holy Law.

    Of God's Ten Commandments what is the only Law that deals with time? It is the Fourth Commandment. In it noting that God states that it Sabbath is His Holy Day! And is the only one that starts with the word "Remember" which Satan has prompted man to try to forget! See Exodus 20:8-11. (And Ex. 16:14-35).

    Please see, 2 Timothy 3:16, 17... Thanks, Robert

    God is good all the time. Tribulations in life is part of what we go through as Christians. Many things do not seem fair at times but Romans 8:28 states that all things work together for those that love him. I too also thought that being a Christian was a life of no trials. I was so wrong, I started to think of many faithful servants in scripture that were faced with many trials and GOD always provided them with the wisdom and guidance to be able to go through the trial they were facing. If Jesus himself was persecuted then what makes us sinners not targets. Before accepting Christ in my life I did not have many challenges like I do today. In fact, when I accepted Christ in my life I have faced many obstacles that has made me realize that the enemy will attack us believers more since he knows we know the truth. At the end his plan is to steal, destroy, and kill. We know his end game therefore we know his character never changes! Amen to Jesus for ever and ever!!!!

    God will oversee the Great White Throne judgment over the dead and living Unsaved.

    They never made a choice for Jesus as Savior. Their names are NOT in the Book of Life.

    Jesus will oversee the Bema Seat Judgement over His Believers; and Crowns will be given.

    THE CROWN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS:

    To those who love the appearing of Christ, who anxiously wait and look forward to the day when He will return for His saints. This crown is given to those who have lived a good and righteous life for God while living down here on earth. If you are a believer you have been made righteous before God the Father as a result of Jesus dying on the cross for all of our sins. This means that the righteousness of Jesus has now been imputed to you. It also refers to us living a good& righteous life for God the Father with what time we have left down here. There are Christians who are righteous before God the Father as a result of being saved, called Justification, through the blood of Jesus Christ; but they are not living righteous lives in their actions, words and behaviours, called Sanctification. There are some people that may be saved in God's eyes, but still continue to do evil works that the unsaved would do. We all have our flaws, weaknesses, and certain temptations that we may struggle with. It is not perfection but DIRECTION that God is looking for.God just wants each one of us to choose to do the right thing when faced with certain temptations or choices to do something bad. When it is all said and done, these Christians will probably be receiving some of the greatest rewards that God can hand out once they enter into heaven. It says in the Bible,Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing." 2 Timothy 4:8To live a righteous life for God will really be worth your while as you will definitely be given this crown by God Himself.

    My Husband and I believe in the power of prayer through our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen. I, Ellen was diagnosed with Cancer and have been receiving treatment. I come again to ask if there are any prayers that you would like us to make to our Lord; and, if we might request prayers from our Brother's and Sister's in Christ Jesus. Tomorrow, January 27, 22 I will have my 2nd PET scan...the first was before treatment started. We are praying for a good report of Christ's Healing power. We've found that so many prayers are being answered as we've reached out and prayed for other's - it gives so much Joy. We love each one of you and thank you. Reggie and Ellen Eakins

    Book of John first. Then Romans, which has the "Romans Road" salvation scriptures.

    Then the book of Luke, begins when Jesus was born. Matthew=teaching on Joseph's contact by an Angel; and Jesus's Geneology.

    A special blessing for you: Malachi 3:16-18

    All of the gospels to learn what Jesus is like because we are his followers.

    Some of the greatest lessons are on how to spend time in prayer away from distractions. How to praise in song (psalms) like King David did; and to worship our Father.

    Ask the Holy Spirit to be your Teacher; to anoint you for reading of the Word.

    I was not speaking about the yeast of these folks, which is figurative language. I was speaking about yeast in the literal sense.

    There is no prohibition of not using yeast in bread other than at Passover, as it reminds the Istaelites of the haste with which they consumed this last meal in Egypt and their fleeing quickly from the land after God spared them from the Angel of death. Yeast has its place in our diet, Burlington

    Irony sugar helps to keep it in check,as does probiotics. People can make non-yeast breads easily with various leavening my agents.

    But Jesus said to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees. So, we should wish to know what He meant by that. I think it refers to their insistence on following the Laws of the Talmud and Mishnah that were added on top of the law of Moses. And He was probably speaking of the sels-righteousness of these leaders and their avoidance of touching anything "unclean" or common. So they did not mingle with common folks. They had their own "class"" system.

    S. Spencer,

    Perhaps in the pre- flood era, the Garden of Eden was actually on earth and all who lived in that time knew where it was and saw that it was Inaccessible to them. And then, perhaps, the flood destroyed the Garden and afterwards it was not to eat found. The tree of life in Revelations may be the one originally in the Garden or Godcreated it again audit was a created physical tree in the Garden.

    God is able to both. Transplant it from the Garden or re-create it.

    We just do not really know. We have so little archeological evidence of the pre-flood era. But I do think thatGod does not want us to know a lot about it. And perhaps, as I have read, the tectonics plates may have moved, heaved so violently with the flood that the earths crust was broken up and much of the artifacts were buried beneath these plates as they subducted under and over each other.
  • Faith Pleases God_May God anoint your Faith_Receive it - In Reply on Job 15 - 4 years ago
    Question: "Is it still God's will to heal all who ask to be healed as in times past?"

    ANSWER

    A man with leprosy came to Jesus and begged Him, If you are willing, you can make me clean. Jesus was filled with compassion. He reached out his hand and touched the man. "I am willing, he said. "Be clean!" ( Mark 1:40-41).

    He knew that Jesus could heal him, but he asked the same question that most of us ask today, "Will He heal me?"

    The greatest hindrance for many seeking healing is the uncertainty, in their mind, if it is God's will for them to be healed. While most know that God heals a few, they dont have a clear understanding of what the Word says, so they doubt, and doubt Destroys their faith. It is very difficult to have faith when the will of God is unknown. The Bible clearly teaches that healing is provided for all, but it also teaches that faith is required. Not faith that God can, but faith that God WILL heal.

    PSALM 103:3, Psalm 86:5

    Did it say to a few? No, it says to ALL. That he by the grace of God should taste death for every man ( Heb 2:9). Jesus tasted death not just for some, but for everyone who is willing to receive both salvation and healing.

    God has planned good for us and He does not change His mind. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever (Heb13:8). We can pray for ANYONES healing because we know healing is God's will. His Word clearly defined His will for our healing & what we need to do to receive.

    Psalm 107:20

    On earth, Jesus was God in a body but without His Godly power. He operated just as man (us) should operate, through the power of the Holy Spirit.

    Unbelief is so strong that even Jesus was limited by the great unbelief He encountered in His hometown. Mark 6:5

    It doesn't say that He would not, it says He could not, because their great unbelief, limited Him.

    Chris

    I understand your point of view.

    I just think we are to speak truthfully and lovingly about brethren, alive today or who lived long ago. I just think that it is wrong to disparage the apostles when we do not know the content of their minds, hearts,or faith.
  • Gigi - In Reply on Matthew 16:23 - 4 years ago
    Dear Ronald

    Your point is well taken.

    Those of us today know Jesus from the perspective of completed Scripture. The apostles lived out the events of Jesus' life and, though believing Hom to be the Messiah and Son of God, they did not come to know Hom as Savior until He rose from the dead and gave them understanding of what He was teaching them. So, yes, they were afraid for good reason. If they crucified Jesus, then they, too, we in danger.

    We do not know what was in their minds and hearts during this time, but they believed in Jesus and He preserved their faith through all the events of His differing and death.

    Because only Jesus knew the apostles thoroughly and we do not, I defend the apostles when people speak against them. As you mentioned, none of us can be so smug as to think we would act any differently than the apostles if we were in their shoes. We should be respectful of them as those hand picked by Jesus to disciple and then send out into the world to spread the good news of Him in a hostile world.
  • Mishael - In Reply - 4 years ago
    I had to look at a couple of commentaries. Write this down so you can view them when you need to.

    Go on Google. " Type your scripture: Genesis 2:4, commentaries"

    It'll bring up several. I like BIBLEHUB. It's fun to look at other websites too ( within the first 5-10 listings)

    >> Pulpit Commentary

    Verse 4. - These are the generations is the usual heading for the different sections into which the Book of Genesis is divided (vial. Genesis 5:1; Genesis 6:9; Genesis 10:1; Genesis 11:10, 27; Genesis 25:12, 19; Genesis 36:1; Genesis 37:2).

    All of these proposals are, however, rendered unnecessary by simply observing that toldoth (from yaladh, to bear, to beget; hence begettings, procreations, evolutions, developments) does not describe the antecedents, but the consequents, of either thing or Person (Rosen., Keil, Kalisch).

    >>[Keil and Delitzsch Biblical Commentary on the Old Testament]

    The historical account of the world, which commences at the completion of the work of creation, is introduced as the "History of the heavens and the earth," and treats in three sections, (a) of the original condition of man in paradise ( Genesis 2:5-25); (b) of the fall ( Genesis 3); (c) of the division of the human race into two widely different families, so far as concerns their relation to God ( Genesis 4).

  • Don - In Reply - 4 years ago
    My friend, the best thing you can do is to pray for her. I know your doing this, but be careful not to force her to see your way. If you are constantly trying to force her to do something she does not want to do or make her understand your way of thinking or believing you will only push her farther and farther away. Lead by example, and try not to rush her into something or to make a rush decision, she will only dig her heels in all the more. Show her how much you love her each and every day, trust and give her over to Jesus and remember we never stand taller than when we are on our knees' praying. Dont give up, trust and prayer in Jesus is our victory cry!!!
