Agreed Butch,

God does not contradict Himself. Those apostles He called to preach the gospel were instructed as to what it was by either Jesus, Himself, or the Holy Spirit.

In the Epistles, we read most of what Paul wrote to explain and expound upon what he was taught by Jesus directly. Unfortunately, we do not have much of a record of what the 12 apostles preached on the gospel, but at the council in Jerusalem, the church leaders James and Peter and John agreed that Paul preached the same gospel as they did. I think that God knowing that Paul was a man of superb education and talent for writing, had him write much more than the other Apostles in explaining many facets of the gospel and teachings God wanted to establish in the church.

Both terms "Holy Spirit" and "Holy Ghost" refer to the same being.

Wondering if the commentary on the page for that Scripture explains anything about this? Maybe take a look. My suggestion.

Also, the curse was on Canaan, Ham's son, not on Ham, who had other sons besides Canaan.

ChrisE The mystery of the Body of Christ started in practice the Day of Pentecost the understanding of

it was given to the Apostle Paul although the other Apostles were operating the ability of the Gift Given. We

do a lot of things for God as we believe and walk but that doesn't mean we understand everything that's being

done in us, for us, and around us but we definitely see the affects.

Carlene What I showed was a different event disregard thanks God Bless!

Hey Rick,

Yup, I was getting ready to come after you (Just kidding). I knew what you meant. Have a blessed day in Christ Jesus!

Jesse I mean't being criticized.

Hey David,

I have not studied this other than a bit here and a bit there, we know it was not in the winter and the pagan 25th. The sheep would not be in the pastures in the cold months and not before the pastures could feed the sheep again. John was six months older than Jesus. Zechariah was of the order of Abijah, his lot was to burn incense and if I remember correctly, it was for eight days.

Knowing what time of year, he served the temple, and calculate six months later, the month Tishri very well could be the month. Thanks, I read a little this morning, but I will study this.

Thanks again.

God bless,

RLW

Dear Grace I am a firm believer that God is in the midst of Our situation.Thank you for all your prayers .God is not a man that he should lie ask and it will be giving on to you .Amen

The weaked dead offcourse are the one who remained dead for a thousand years.

You're on my heart this morning Mason.It's clear you loved your grandma.I can see she meant a lot to you. Thank you Lord for the grandma that had such an impact and love for her grandson.

God please continue to comfort Mason's heart today. Help him God when he misses her. Fill that empty place with Your presence. Help him to remember all the love she had for him, that will never die. I know his grandma wants him to serve You and be a light! In Jesus name

Grandmas have a special kind of love. I know this cuz I'm a grandma too . But remember, the Lord loves you even more.And He will never leave you or forsake you. You will find comfort in Him. So go to Him in prayer always. God bless you Mason.

You're on my heart and mind this morning, in my prayers. I don't believe God has forgotten you.I haven't forgotten you , so how could He? You just keep on believing God for your miracle! It will be accounted to you for righteousness. I'm believing with you! He is able. I also need a miracle. A bunch of miracles. And I am already a bunch of miracles, as are you, I'm sure of it! :-))

Hi Ronald My understanding is Jesus Christ was born on Tishri one of the judean Calender of that year.

Please pray for the complete healing of my nephew Ezekiel his having and hard time to breath and peace of mind to me for my past that still bothers me. Also forgiveness to the people who hurt me over and over. May the Lord lead me to the right path as I left the church where I don't grow anymore.

I'm looking for clear direction and guidance from the Lord, where I will be mentored in sound doctrine and where the spirit of the Lord is.

I felt lost and heavy laden because me, my family, and my friends we left the church and no where to go. My faith is getting weak, I have no guidance no council and just walking alone and feeling so down and confused.

Thank you for your prayer God bless!!

I believe that this book has been removed from bibles because of fear of what can be done when the children of the LORD Most High stand together in unfaltering faith. Those who had it removed must have not wanted to give further ideas or references to believers on now to stand firm in their faith and look to the Father for help and deliverance in times of darkness.

Jesse I never consider correct communication critical, also there is wisdom in a multitude of counselors.

When its comes to Gods Word the deeper we Dig The greater the treasures.

Gbu Bro. Chris. But its in John 10 : 22 That says it was at Jerualem the Feast of Dedication and it was winter

which is the celebration of Chanukak where the Jews celebrate the festival of lights in Heriod's temple. As you said this was nothin to do with Chanukak.

John 10 ; 23 And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch

John 10 : 30 I and my Father are one

John 10 : 31 Then the Jews took up stones AGAIN TO STONE HIM, the word Again implies a 2 nd time.

John 10 : 39 There fore they sought Again to take him a 3 rd time.

Chris no offence but we have only 1 light which is Christ the light of the world .

Remember what Jesus said about the light ,if your eye be single your whole body will be full of LIGHT. we

have no LIGHT but Jesus. Lets pray that our eye is single ,meaning we see only 1 light

And we have no temple but Jesus as he said abide in me and i in you

Jesus said there shall not be 1 stone left on another that shall not be cast down.

Amen Bro Jesse. And Jesus said it in such a subtle way. It is THE MESSAGE:)

please remember myself and my daughters Deanna and Jessica and their young families in your prayers today, please remember Kristie and pray for my lost coworkers

The Genesis flood narrative tells how Noah and his three sons Shem, Ham, and Japheth, together with their wives, were saved from the Deluge to repopulate the Earth. ... In chapter 11 verses 10-26 a second list of descendants of Shem names Abraham and thus the Israelites.

In the Book of Jubilees (160-150 BC) the names of the wives of Noah, Shem, Ham and Japheth are as follows:

* Wife of Noah - Emzara.

* Wife of Shem - Sedeqetelebab.

* Wife of Ham - Na'eltama'uk.

* Wife of Japheth - 'Adataneses.

In the Biblical view, the listed children of Japheth, Shem and Ham correspond to various historic nations and peoples. In the typical interpretation, these sons of Noah correspond to three races: European, Semitic, and African. Alternate divisions claim Euro-Asian Japhet, Semitic Shem, and Afro-Asian Ham.

The Genesis Rabba midrash lists Naamah, the daughter of Lamech and sister of Tubal-Cain, as the wife of Noah, as does the 11th-century Jewish commentator Rashi in his commentary on Genesis 4:22.

In the medieval midrash Parry, J. H. (ed.). "5:15". Book of Jasher. Translated by Moses, Samuel., the name of Noah's wife is said to be Naamah, daughter of Enoch.

Since the 17th century a number of suggestions have been made that relate the name Ham to a Hebrew word for "burnt", "black" or "hot", to the Egyptian word m for "servant" or the word m for "majesty" or the Egyptian word kmt for "Egypt".[4] A 2004 review of David Goldenberg's The Curse of Ham: Race and Slavery in Early Judaism, Christianity and Islam (2003) states that Goldenberg "argues persuasively that the biblical name Ham bears no relationship at all to the notion of blackness and as of now is of UNKNOWN (color) etymology.

Gigi all has been a blessing good and bad because my heart is still full of the Holy Spirit no corruptions of the earth will ever change that.

So happy for you and your husband and may Jesus continue to guide and the Holy Spirit bright light continue to shine in your Heart.

Let all who read this know we are all Brother & Sisters from one.

He is real and is Love!

Love you sister & brother

Amen Amen Amen

You are amazing Gigi and thank you from me!

Thank you Alex - no offence taken. I question your reference to trying to stone the Lord three times & that it was on 'Chanukak' that they tried to stone Him. There's nothing in the Bible that Chanukah was being celebrated in any of the accounts of Jesus' Life & Ministry. You may have to refer to the apocryphal books to find mention of them, but certainly none aligned with Jesus' Life.

Nevertheless, I understand that the point that the enquirer was making was, 'whether Hanukkah is still valid for Jewish believers & Gentile (believers)?' I think that was what he/she wanted to know. Similar to the Feast of Purim (celebration of the salvation of Jews from Haman's wicked plot), Chanukah was simply a remembrance & celebration of the victory over the Seleucids. There is no connection to any appointed feasts or sacrifices that God had given them to observe. Therefore, to make a connection of Chanukah (a Festival of Lights) to the Light of the World (Jesus) would be incorrect - Christ's coming & Chanukah have no connection whatsoever.

Purim, Chanukah, & other Jewish festivals are purely that - times of remembrance & rejoicing. As one would celebrate Thanksgiving, so also the Jews have every right to remember their past with thanksgiving & if a non-Jew (whether Christian or not) wished to join their Jewish friends in celebration, I would see no biblical reason not to do so. The converse is also true: a Christian cannot celebrate Diwali (also a Festival of Light) with his Hindu friends, as that festival symbolizes victory of light over darkness, good over evil, knowledge over ignorance and is associated with various gods & goddesses. This type of celebration cannot be indulged in by the Christian as its roots are in idolatry.

"Verily,Verily." (well said)

Carlene,

You can find this account in Luke 7:36-50 which shows the proof of forgiveness. There is a very important message in that section of scripture. The woman's name is not given.

Rick,

Thanks for the clarification. I think we are in agreement with each other on what is being taught in 1 Corinthians 13:10. I'm sorry if I was being too critical. I think GiGi nailed it on what "the perfect" is referring to.

I think the "that which is in part shall be done away" is talking about our earthly pilgrimage. We know in part. We only know what God gives us. We don't know everything. We have to study the bible and trust God's Spirit to reveal the truth of Christ to us. We can't study it like a textbook because it requires the revelation of God's Spirit.

Someday, we won't need that. We'll be with the Lord face to face. We won't need a bible study. There will be no bibles in heaven. We'll be with Christ! Right now we know in part. But you see, the other half is "but when that which is perfect is come." When we reach what would be called maturity, not maturity spiritually here, but the completed perfect state. When we reach the Lord, all the other stuff will be done away!

We won't need a bible. We won't need all the tools that we struggle with. We'll be with Christ and we'll become that complete person, and we will see Him face to face. But then shall I know even as also I am known. ( 1 Corinthians 13:12). That's an interesting little phrase. It means that when I get to this perfection, when I see Him face to face, I'm going to look back and know me as I was known by Him. Right now, I don't even know myself. But one day I will know even as I was known. And guess what? Agape will still be there. That will never be done away.

God Bless you also my brother and keep sharing your knowledge!

No problem. Have a good and restful night's sleep.
