What do you think Paul was referring to in vs 17 ch 1

Gigi, take none of these offenses coming your way. Keep praying for those as you've done today; and past.

Jesus said, OFFENSIVES WILL COME.

We don't have to respond. Respond in christian love, and Jesus will be your Advocate, against the criticism.

Woe on those on who offenses com.

S. Spencer Amen brother without holy Spirit we would be as lost as everybody else without God and

without Hope but we have the hope of Christ return and are energized daily by our new Nature in Him.

Dear Spencer,

Just so you know, I am not venting and I do not think others are either when they speak sincerely about the vaccine or the national issues facing us in our present times. These are all legitimate concerns that have a place on a site like this because they affect us and the work of Christ in our nation, communities, families, and friends. We should be prayerful and specifically name and explain our concerns so people can join with us to pray for such things just as people submit prayer requests for other matters, such as world disasters, or personal ones that so many have experienced and seek prayer for. It seems I touched a nerve with some on this topic. That may be, but also, those who it may have should also understand that they can just as easily strike a nerve in me or anyone else on here by what they post. I don't believe in "chilling" of free speech on a forum such as this. I think we should be charitable and, as you say, conscious of what is put forth. I think I have done that, and I think that of others, too. We all have our sensitivities and it isn't really for us to know what they are on a site like this unless the administration spells it out for us. It is for the Spirit to lead and guide us in our conversation. I am one that can engage in what some would call "strong" conversation. That is not good or bad. It just should be Spirit led and engaged in prayerfully. I fully understand that many on here have been posting for far longer than I. That does not delegitimize my ideas. I also fully understand that many on here do not like to read such "strong" comments. I am not trying to insult nor convince anyone. I just feel that it is really good for people to hear strong, reasoned responses on this site. It stretches us and helps us grow and seek to go to other sources to find out more of what someone may have stated. That is my take on this. You may agree or disagree. I am good with that. The word says to "speak the truth in love" and I do.

S. Spencer We believers need to keep in mind that we live in The Age of grace but its like the Apostle Paul

says in 1 Corinthians 4:3 this is mans day Paul didn't judge Himself or count mans judgement. That's why on

the court systems judgements are being made way off Gods Word because its man's judgement or man's day.

But like you shared we focus on Christ and Gods word to keep above it all in the new man nature.

Tony My understanding is another angel prince of the people of Israel Da. 12:1 fighting for Gods people Michael,

Daniel 10:13, 10:21, 12:1. Gabriel is the messenger angel and Michael is the fighter for Gods people.

Spencer, thank you so much for what your response. I understand your point of view. the "they" I was referring to are anyone who is using racism to pay back white people for past racism. It isn't right to do that anymore than it was right for whites to use racism to mistreat anyone who is not white. I am not singling out any one group here, I am talking about the evil of racism, no matter who it is targeting. And people who are abreast of the current culture and news knows the problem we are having in these recent years with a racism that is promoted and supported by many in the news and politics. this is what I am referring to. I hope that clears up that for you.

We do live in a sinful, vile, unloving, world that is turned against God and all of His goodness, except that those wo revile God and His ways, expect that people should treat them the way God calls us to treat people. As Christians, we are to reject such hypocritical expectations and instead live godly and uprightly in all so that we do not spread disrepute on the work and word of God.

As to my asking you why you seemed oppositional to the discussion of one topic on Officer Chauvin and not so to the discussion of Officer Potts, since you have intimated that it was not correct to speak of one but did not say it was also not correct to speak of the other. It seemed inconsistent to me. I appreciate that you responded to me, however, you really did not answer this part of post, I believe. I respect if you do not wish to. We can move on. God bless.

Peace be upon us all. Jesus is involved in all of our troubles, as darkness falls upon these Last Days.

I know in our humanity, no one wants to face the reality of the what's coming upon earth. This morning the Lord gave me Joel 1 and 2.

In the midst of this time in earth history, we should draw closer to Jesus (who intercedes for us 24/7). He is our Salvation, through and from these events. USE His wisdom to get to a safe place. Ask Him for what you Need.

God creates, out of a state of Chaos. He can do that now. The ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION must take place. 1 Thessalonians 5:4. That hasn't happened yet. Keep an eye on it, and be prayerful till it happens. Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem as Jesus SAID. It wasn't a suggestion.

They are surrounded by enemies! Who are shooting at them. If you are unconcerned about events that must take place, don't watch and pray; you will be likened to the 10 Virgins Parable, JESUS taught. It's NOT a pretty story to be left behind.

Meanwhile, keep your eyes on Matthew 24 and Luke 21. We will be here on earth until the Abomination. Because of the disaster signs, BE WISE as the 5 Virgins who were READY, prepared.

I've dragged up 22 times, and moved 1-3 bedroom homes; for safety sake and go where good jobs are abundant. Be willing to do that if where you live now, becomes a dry well. If your "well" dries up, or your "bush"_be willing to follow The Holy Spirits LEAD. He and Jesus are our lifeline.

How often have I told us to WATCH news relevant to Bible prophesies? Prophesies DO NOT disappear until THEY ARE FULFILLED. Bottom line. On YouTube, type: world disasters this week. Seeing is Believing.

Do not be afraid. Just prepare to go with Jesus. This is not a call to DOOMSDAY PREP. Watch and pray. Help those with weak faith. Jesus is WORTH anything we have to endure! He is going to scoop us up and take us to Heaven. A REAL PLACE already prepared for us, with homes. No evil, no suffering.

Revelation 1:15 is repeated in Daniel 10:6, how is that possible? Is Daniel referring to Jesus Christ or another angel?

Hi GIGI.

I've been enjoying family and took time away from my email. But in response to your question.

I wasn't agreeing to the posting, I agreed that there should be no partiality when the world judges. That is why I consciously said ' I believe everything he said on (THAT THREAD).

I also said-

My quote: But that is the world that we are called out of!!

It's he that is behind the scenes and our wicked flesh where the problem lies.

Ephesians 6:12.

We are to be a light and a workman to lead people out of darkness.

2 Corinthians 4:6.

I've seen this darkness up close and experienced it in several Churches.

Do you expect the world to act any other way? There has to be a new birth and baptism of the Holyspirit,

A new nature given, A New heart of flesh,

THERE HAS TO BE THE DEATH OF THE OLD MAN WHO'S MARRIED TO THE WORLD.

IF WE TRUST IN CHRIST WE WERE BAPTIZED INTO HIS DEATH, THAT'S THE OLD MAN. ONE WHO FAILED TO COME TO THE LORD PRESENTING THE WORKS OF THE FLESH. TWICE DEAD,

But as for us.

Ephesians 2:1-6.

End quote.

My point was we're no better than them apart from the Holyspirit.

Here's why I took issue with your post.

Here is a direct copy of a portion of your post that bothers me.

Now quoting:

It is truly sad that racism is so injected into these situations. It has always been wrong to racially mistreat people and it still is. However, I fear that those who are presently dominating the racism today feel justified since

"they are turning the racism back on white people and the police,"

End quote.

Who's the "THEY" you are referring to? You sound a little partial and bias when it comes to certain groups!

The thing is Some of the "THEY" you are referring to is Christian too. And been on this site every day and far longer than you. I am sure we prayed for a many of them.

If they ask for prayer, they see it as much more than just a site we vent on. They see God's people gathered!

That's why I said we should be careful in what we entertain.

God bless.

'"not attempting to gain converts to "my" church ect but merely pointing out what is within the pages of the same bibles we all own kjv in my case most bibles read the same only in the amplified version does acts 2;38 read and be baptized everyone of you "because of the forgiveness of your sins" in that version its too easy see it takes away the reason for baptism in the name of Jesus Christ and turns it ito not as a requirement to the obedient but turns it into an afterrhought, an addition to the forgiveness we have already recieved some other way, i would assume the sinners prayer, something else the sincere, the honest, those humbly seeking the Lords will, will admit is not found in the Bible either. i love believers, and want all of us to believe the same thing ,thats the bible, when we can see the bible, really see it, it becomes an adventure, no longer to we have to skip over gobs and gobs of scripture because somwhere someone very sharp at talking convinced us its "history" there actually is: you ready? ONLY ONE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST IN THE BIBLE. if i were allowed yes i would put my phone number here, not to find people to argue with but to teach, i love to teach and i know there are many many wise and prayerful believers out there GOD bless you for this bible site

Faith Trust Life

All are forgiven

it always amazes me how, a vast majority of people who claim to have faith in Jesus but are scared to death to interpret the bible in the way its actualy written, oh they do understand the written english language but choose to make the bible echo their own preconcieved ideas . for instance why in the above commentary 37-41 the commentater states that people were baptized to openly avow their belief in Jesus, but it reads; Repent and be baptized evertone of you, in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of Sins, not to openly show our belief in Jesus, but as a direct means of having our sins forgiven,this is to point out how it actual reads and what it means acts;2;38 that this is what it means the apostle paul, who wrote 13 of our new testament books openly shows us in his own words in acts 22;16 and now, why tarriests thou? arise,and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. we all have a free will and can choose to live by the dogmas and teachings of any particular church we may attend, but in a public forum, if we comment on the bible it must be done openly and honestly, while leaving our own attitudes and what we wish the bible actualy said out of it. who among us wants to go to heaven? a repented person wants to obey the word of God without adding to it or taking away from it by trying to change its meaning ,God is not astone standing by saying oh yes he words it much better than i ever could, here is TRUTH. you know why this happens? because most christians dont even realize they are not christians at all,when did Jesus or any of his Apostles ever tell anyone to accept him as their personal savior? its a basic question of is that in the bible or not? we are on a bible site now, try finding that version of the Gospel. Its all over the bible not just like in 13 conversions in the book of acts but Romsns 6 colossions 2 galatians 3 me? i want to go to heaven, Gods way, because how will we talk our way out of it before him ?

Ronald Good stuff Amen. Jesus Christ didn't eat the passover because he was the passover for all mankind.

Hi brother Rick and Merry Christmas

Thanks for replying, I've been entertaining family. but great scripture.

God bless.

Thank you and may the Lord bless you ,

Gigi These individuals in high places have already admitted the only thing that's stopping things from

cutting loose so to speak is us believers in Jesus Christ continually praying and interceding. That is a

glorious thing.

Grace ChrisE I only have one question, if the dead are already risen and are in heaven then why is the

church the body of Christ going to be Raised and meet him in the air in new incorruptible bodies like His

In Thessalonians who are the just and unjust that will be raised in the book of revelation?

Reynaldo Never said that you had no dignity or intelligence I just stated the root of our problems is the

unbelief of Gods Word we are surrounded by or influenced by in the world. I myself grew up very poor so

to a degree I'm speaking from experience. Jesus Christ Himself said the poor and hungry you will always

have because he knew how the world worked. So the root problem is man's disbelief.

Reynaldo American so called democracy is not because the wealthy are the ruling class, also peoples greed.

The stock market crash of 2007 was full proof of that, I knew many people who took [advantage] big time of the

housing mortgage system. In florida alone you could get a house built in 120 days 175,00 dollar loan unsecured

no money down only pay for paper work have no steady job but they would send it through based on what you

would be making which is lying on the loan. That's like buying a rolex watch and getting a loan for it and paying

10.00 a week till its payed off isn't going to happen. I fully agree and understand what you say, I don't want to

hear a sermon I want to see one. Unfortunately there's not a lot to be seen now. Change what you can and know

what you can't.

Reynaldo what's the BOOK?

Reynaldo My point was and is man is driven by greed and other corrupt motivations, I'm very aware of

everything you stated and in my personal life I give in my realm of influence the best I can biblically. We are

not called to change the world, but individuals who choose to believe. I didn't just state canned scripture,

until true change in heart is made by man which will never happen because Gods Word says it will wax worse

and worse until God Pulls the plug. Until that time each one win one. Even out master Jesus Christ didn't

change the world system he made it available to conquer it if you believe, this is not a sermon its reality.

Cami,

Interesting question: there is a lot in this night leading up to Jesus being taken and sacrificed if we take Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John not just one. Many assume the last supper was a Passover meal, but Jesus tells us, He will not eat that Passover before he suffered, which would be the next night.

Luke 22:15-16 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: 16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

Luke tells us Jesus would not drink until the kingdom of God comes, Luke 22:18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

So, it is after Jesus' second coming and the battle, then Jesus sets up the kingdom on earth. not in heaven.

God bless,

RLW
