I agree with you in prayer tonight, Clair

Ryan, I will pray for you and Rachel,

Lord Jesus, Bless this relationship in every way. Overcome in Rachel the wounds and scars of abuse from her ex-husband. Help her to heal completely. Help her to be able to trust in Ryan's love for her and that their relationship is healthy and godly and full of grace that comes from You. Make both of them aware of each others needs, emotions, and peculiarities so that they can deeply understand one another and work towards harmony. We ask this in Your name, Jesus. Amen

MariTere

I agree with you in prayer tonight.

Baptiste,

I agree with you in pray tonight.

Cyndee, I will pray for your sister.

Lord Jesus, just as You have provided relief and healing of my back, I ask that you will bring relief and healing for Cyndee's sister's back. Grant her pain-days, and the ability to rest her back as much as she -off her feet, legs up in a recliner. If she does not have a recliner, provide one for her as you did for me. It has helped me so very much. Lord, we know that all healing and blessings come from You, so we thank you and ask all of this in Your name, Jesus. Amen.

Isaiah, I will pray for you

Lord Jesus, help Isaiah to truly know You as Lord and Savior because Your word says that no one can say Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit. He is asking for Your Holy Spirit. Help him understand that the Spirit resides in every believer from the moment of regeneration as it is Your Spirit who regenerates those that are dead to God and need to be made alive. Help Isaiah understand it is Your Spirit in us that creates the faith to believe the gospel that tells of You and Your works for our salvation. Help Isaiah understand that it is Your spirit who makes us a new creation in You. So, if this has been done in Isaiah, then I pray that you will pour out Your Spirit upon and in Him, empowering him to do the work You have chose for him to complete. Have Your Spirit bestow on Isaiah the spiritual gifts You desire for him to have and exercise. Make Isaiah aware of the gifts You are equipping him with. Use him for Your glory in work You have chosen for him to do. WE ask this in Your name, Jesus. Amen.

Ellen, I will pray for you and your husband

Lord Jesus, Bring success for Ellen from these s=chemo treatments and heal her of this lymphoma. Help her in her recovery from each chemo treatment, giving her good rest and strength. Help her husband know how to best support and help Ellen. Keep their relationship strong and loving. AS Ellen has said, provide the opportunities to witness of Your love and help on her behalf. We ask this in Your name, Jesus, Amen.

Hi Mary , I will pray for you.

Lord Jesus, Please provide for Mary's financial need today and every day. She is trusting You to hear her prayer and answer in Your grace and wisdom. We know that You are able to do what is out of our hands or seems impossible for us.

So, in faith, begin this answer for Mary today. We ask You, Lord, in Your lovely name, Jesus. Amen.

David, I will pray for you.

Lord Jesus, David has remained faithful in bringing his needs before You and us. Satisfy every need he and Kristie have today. Keep them healthy. Help them be good witnesses to their friends, family and co-workers, that these may turn to You as You work in and through them. Answer every petition they send to You, for they do believe that You are the answer to everything that comes our way. We ask this in Your name, Jesus, Amen.

Sometimes I feel like in this we are so busy dealing with what everyday life and trying to make it that we don't make time to really get to know God and get to know his word and try to build a relationship with him or the enemy try's to make us feel like we have done to much wrong in are life or that we aren't living the right way to have a relationship with or loving God and for him to love us and we are so use to what we call love from a human point of view do to are past experiences we can't imagine the kind of love he has for us because we can't rap are brain around it is so much more than we can comprehend and so beautiful that there is no words to describe it but just no we don't have to earn it is a gift as long as we believe in Jesus is are safeur we are saved and I know sometimes we can't feel him but he is here with us every step of the way and I feel like the more time we spend seeking him and talking to him about everything the good the bad and what we feel like on the inside and the things we pray for the more you will feel him but don't give up on him because you don't feel him or you thought that when you have God everything will change and we won't have no more hardships or you don't get what you been asking for from him fast enough remember it is on his time and he knows when to open a door and when to close a door even right now as I am writing this I the enemy is attacking me in my head by trying to make opposeing thought s and he is good at it because it sounds like my voice but I know it's not me because I am going over what I am writing simultaneously he trying to interfer with what God wants me to tell you but I just cast him out and go on and God wants me to tell you that he does love you very much and that the enemy dose not attack what is not important so if you are going through some hard ship's that just means that you are special and he is scared of what God's purpose is for you so please don't let him trick

LaTonya, I will pray for you. My husband and I have a two story home with our bedroom upstairs. Wit my back issues and such, we know this home cannot work for us to age in. So we are praying the Lord will lead us to the best lot and community to build our one story, simple retirement home built to meet our needs. So I hear you on needing a new place to live that is more fitting. we've been in this house 26 years. Our sons were in elementary school when we moved in and now all three are in their thirties. So, please pray for us as i pray for you.

Dear Lord Jesus,

Thank you for keeping Latonya strong these past few months despite her heart problems. Please preserve her until you bring the best answer for her concerning her heart. I pray that You will allow her to move to a first floor apartment, duplex, or home soon that will suit her needs as she, like me, have need of this. We both are trusting you for all of our needs each day and for life eternal when You call us home.

We ask all of this in Your name, Jesus, because you are Almighty, and All Wise, and All in All for us. Amen.

No this helps alot thank you much. And you are right . And i have a question what do you feel about the word priesthood? And the garden of Gethsemane? And about the power of the porphets and apostles had or left once they passed?

If these are to many questions i understand and i will ask a pastor that i know or can fine?

Thank you for evening replying to me

Mishael, I too, shop Goodwill for bibles and good reference books. Just picked up a Strong's Exhaustive Concordance to day with Greek and Hebrew! Picked up a biography of Peter as I am almost done with the bio of Paul.

There are so many good finds there, but one does need to be careful. Just because a book is in the "religion" section does not stamp it as biblically/doctrinally sound. Picked up A.W. Tozer "the Pursuit of the Holy" which is about the nature of God. Read this many years ago, but since I am again going deep in this study of God's Being and nature, I thought this book will help. So, my trip today was profitable. But I steer clear of Word of Faith preachers, like Olsteen, Copeland, Hagin, Price, Hinn, and others in this group. Also I avoid reading from those who I find of dubious teaching, unfortunately many of these are from the Pentecostal persuasion and that is a unfortunate, since so many in these churches really love Jesus, but are exposed to a lot of error by the leaders of this movement. I certainly embrace the work of the Holy Spirit, just as I embrace the work of Jesus, and of the Father, as they all three have the same will and purpose and essence. So, they will never contradict one another as they are a unity without flaw or discord.

But I do pick up extra copies of the Bible to give out to people. I do not see many KJV in these stores, but often find NIV or RSV and both of those can help someone come to the Lord and learn good doctrine. I am not a purist about KJV, even though I am enjoying reading it because it is new to me and adds to my understanding of years of studying other translations. If someone I meet wants a Bible and I have one of these versions, I'll give it to them.

Mishael you have so many helpful posts. God Bless You tonight. Probably past your bedtime in your area now as it is 9:15 P.M. where I am.

why does God allow poverty and such if he could just take those things away?

Destiny, I strongly suggest that you do not get baptized in the Mormon church or become a member of their cult. They can be very persuasive. Resist this and instead ask God to lead you to a bible-only believing church with beliefs and doctrines that are widely accepted as true (orthodox) by most Christians across the centuries. You can google this subject to find out what these long held beliefs are and how they align with Scripture. You can also talk with a Christian (not Mormon) pastor and ask questions about these matters but especially about what the gospel truly is and how one receives salvation.

It is well worth it to look into this. It will matter much to your relationship with God. Jesus said in Scripture that we are to worship God in spirit and in truth. So, learning the truth about God, Jesus, and salvation will help you rightly worship the True God of the Bible, not the one Mormons teach is true (though it is a false god they teach).

Hope this helps

Jocelynne,

Our soul is the non material part of us that makes us conscious of being alive, that we are our own individual person. Our soul includes our mind (not our brain), our emotions, our will, our conscience, our awareness of thoughts, ideas, the ability to evaluate what our senses send to our brain along with ideas, points of views, wonderings, inquisitiveness. Many things like that. Our souls are immortal, but our bodies are mortal. So our body dies, but our soul goes to wherever God determines it should rest until our resurrection. Our soul was not alive before we were conceived; they had a beginning. God creates the soul in a person at conception. At the resurrection, our soul will be reunited in our bodies because a soul only lives in an alive body. Our body will be changed from mortal to immortal, our body and souls will change from being corruptible by sin to incorruptible and unable to sin every again. We will live forever in this new body with a perfected soul with God.

Hope this helps.

Yes, Donna, I agree with Chris on this matter concerning your fellowship with this "Oneness" denomination. It seems that your participation in this group has caused you confusion and concern about what you have known to be true-that God is Triune-three Persons, but One Eternal Being (God). I would encourage you to do as Chris has suggested by finding a Bible-teaching, Trinitarian church fellowship. The Bible teaches that God is that God is three distinct Persons in a unity of being-so One God.The doctrine taught by Oneness denomination has repeatedly been refuted and denounced as heresy (as Modalism) along with others that have been denounced as heresy such as: Adoptionism, Arianism, Docetism, Monophysitism, Gnosticism, Montanism, Manicheaism, and others that deny the Trinity or teach error about the person and nature of Jesus. You can Google these terms and find out more about them and why they are rejected by the overwhelming majority of Christians over the centuries.

So when i read to today to fellow citizens with Saints meaning be friends with them and not become one. The reason why i asked because i am looking to get baptized and i have been studying and researching them but i only from there point or view. So Normans and. Saints are different or the same. I just want a relationship with God and not with all these titles

Shellon,

To answer your question, it will be Jesus who comes back for us. But, since He is both God and Man, then God is coming back for us. Either way, it is Jesus, the fullness of God and fully human Person who is our Savior and Lord.

Grae, Read your name as Grace who often posts on here. You and I have not interacted before. Hope to hear more fromm you.

Rosvie

What kind of verses are you wanting-a particular book, chapter, or topic?

KJBO Admin,

One more thing, I would like it if after posting a comment you can click a button that takes you back to the last post you replied to so one can continue in the posts where they left off instead of going to the top of the posts.

Thanks you for requesting feedback

Hi Sean,

Adam and Eve were in a state of innocence and were naive about disobedience to God when God gave them the command. They did not know what sin was like, so could not know how costly it was, how much it would change them and their relationship with God, and what death was like. They also did not know the difference between a truth and a lie. So, though they were responsible for their choices in this matter, they come from a position much different than any who came after them. Only Adam and Eve knew what it was like to be in a sinless state, (except when the Son of God incarnated in human flesh to become Jesus). The difference between Adam (and Eve) and Jesus is that Adam (and Eve) were created good by God, but were not perfect as they were created able to sin, but could choose not to sin. Jesus was God the Son, therefore his divine nature was not able to sin. And since the two natures were united in one person, Jesus was unable to sin due to this union. This does not mean that Jesus in His human nature was not tempted, nor did not have to struggle against this temptation, but His divine nature would not allow His human nature to sin, because the divine human nature were united in one Person, but the natures did not mix together.

All other humans that lived after Adam and Eve never know what it is like to be in a sinless state while on earth. Human nature was changed with Adam's sin is now no longer innocent, but corrupted by the power of sin. And this sinful nature is passed on from generation to generation in some way. But us every being that comprise humankind is corrupted by sin from conception on and so every person will at some point choose to sin. So, Adam (and Eve) could choose to sin or not to sin, and Jesus could not choose to sin, all other humans cannot not sin at some point and repeatedly in this life.

My Dear Sweet friends, there is a real lesson in this chapter.

KJBO Admin,

I like the posts aligned with the original post, so view tread was helpful. But I like the button that says whether a post has been replied to or not. I am not sure if the Amen button is helpful unless that Amen goes back to the original poster.

I appreciated your very thoughtful & insightful comments of our Lord's early years, GiGi. I've often considered that part of His Life that has sadly been withheld from us, for good reason no doubt.

It's almost impossible to imagine a young boy growing up with others of his age around him & not be influenced & tempted to imitate their fleshly ways or satisfy Himself with carnal offerings. His obedience to his parents & wisdom of words & counsel, would no doubt have intrigued many folk & ministered to both young & old.

Well said Adam.

Hi Destiny,

Most Christians consider the revelations and teachings of Joseph Smith, gross heresy as these add to Scripture new revelations. Most Christians accept that Biblical revelation from God ceased after John's visions and conversations with Jesus in the book of Revelations. Book of Mormon and other writings of Joseph Smith to be equal with Scriptures. Most Mormons accept the Book of Mormon and other of J. Smith's writings as equal, putting them on par with Scriptures.

Therefore, most Christians consider Mormonism a cult that deviates substantially from revealed Scriptural truth.

Personally, (and many people would say this) I have met many Mormons over my life and they are genuinely kind and lead godly lives. But they are deviant in their theology of God and Jesus Christ, so are quite deceived. They make great neighbors, but are not Christian brothers until God brings them to Scriptural knowledge of God and Jesus.
