Hi Jesse Original language always add more depth and Heart to the scriptures.

Jesus instructs us to repent and sin no more. Most bible scripture like this is very clear, and easy to understand.

John 5:14

"Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee."

John 8:11

"She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more."

Many people think they can't stop sinning. Jesus thinks that we can, and he tells us - to stop sinning. Jesus has more faith in us, than we have in him. Jesus can help us to stop sinning, but we need to really have FAITH and believe that we can! Remember the mustard seed.

Let's pray on this.

God Bless

Anthony P.S. The Apostle Paul by revelation being shown spiritually had to explain in great length how

to do things of God correctly because the Corinthian believers were way out of order and combining pagan

actions and thought to the things of God. It is the first thing done on the day of Pentecost and in Acts 2:11

Gods Word says they were speaking the wonderful works of God and they were not jumping up and dow

shouting or hitting the floor they decent and in order. Prayerfully this helps.

Brother Adam:

I responded to you, we are saved from death and the grave.

Go back in the comments about 2 hours.

God Bless you!

Hi Anthony You are going to get a few takes on this, one of them praying in the spirit, for the spirit to

come in which is not possible because we already have it. 2 Be too be praying to God quietly about his word

mind with understanding. Third which is what I understand scripturally is speaking in tongues which is

your own private prayer life with God. Now many believe this doesn't exist anymore, or went out with

apostolic age. Also they've seen examples like I have that are so out of order who would want to do that.

Correctly understood all things of God are decent and in order, this manifestation of Gods gift is primarily for

your private prayer life been doing this for 42 years.

I manifested power from on High shortly after confessing Romans 10: 9+10, now like everything

else biblically you have to make up your mind to believe or not. There's got to be something to it because the

Apostle paul said to the church at Corinth that he thanked God he spoke in tongues more than ye all

and keep in mind he was given how the church was suppose to operate. There are 12 benefits to SI.T. biblically.

Dear Earl,

I didn't understand your response to the topic at hand. It seemed to avoid the main question about what we're saved from, but that's ok. I hope what I wrote was at least considered. I did see your repeating of your belief that the KJV is a 'Catholic' Bible and that's untrue. And your idea that hell doesn't actually mean hell, but something nicer like a cellar or grave isn't true either. The Bible is already translated accurately by a team of experts who spent years methodically and prayerfully doing it word for word. You're one person claiming the opposite with no evidence for it, so I don't find the attacks on God's word as credible. Not sure what your goals are in attacking God's word publicly on a Bible site, but nonetheless, I'm glad you're here.

You asked: "For what purpose did GOD SAVE YOU."

I don't agree with the terminology "saved" past tense, because we haven't been judged yet. The Bible mostly uses the terminology shall or will be saved. Future tense, not past tense, because we are still living and have freewill to follow Jesus or not follow Him. The choice is ours.

Paul in the Bible said to run the race to the end to receive the prize, not the race was already over. 1 Cor 9:24-27

So I don't believe I have been "saved" from anything yet, nor has anyone else on earth, because we haven't been judged as it says we will be in 2 Corinthians 5:10. It says we "all" must appear to be judged. All means all. I understand some think they can skip judgment based on good behavior, but that's not Biblical. All means everyone. Here's another: Romans 14:12 "Every one of us..." 1 Corinthians 4:5. "Every one" means everyone, including Christians and non-Christians. 1 Peter 1:5 - "...salvation ready to be revealed in the last time."

But by following Jesus, can we have assurance and confidence in salvation? Yes. Philippians 1:6

If we don't follow Jesus, can we have assurance and confidence in salvation? No. Luke 12:5. Hebrews 10:26

God bless...

Roger,

Anointing oil was used for several different things in scripture. If you are wanting to know what the oil consisted of, you might want to read Exodus 30:23-24. That will tell you what you need. However, there is nothing in the bible that suggests to us that we need to put oil on our door post. But also, there is nothing that says it is wrong for us to do so. Personally, I think that if a believer finds comfort in anointing the doorpost of their home with oil, if that makes them feel better, there is nothing in the bible that forbids them to do so.

But as far as what the oil consisted of, it was not regular olive oil or extra virgin olive oil that we have today. So if you are wanting the ingredients, I would look at Exodus 30:23-24. If it were me wanting to anoint my doorpost with oil, I would not care if it were regular olive oil, extra virgin olive oil, or 10W-30, because I'm not sure where I would be able to find those other ingredients mentioned in Exodus.

Gigi Thanks for your reply there's a lot of things I choose not to follow with theology, but there again,

my privilege and yours to choose. I've read to many things that don't line up with scripture by equal

people discussing the same subject. So again on to the next thing.

There were a few times I felt a almost nagging feeling to anoint our home & a family member's home. Each time within days, weeks, months. Bad, even horrible things happened but we remain alive. I use olive oil, just because it was in Bible.

Patricia,

In Matthew 10:16-42, this is a section of scripture that talks about the training of the 12 apostles. Jesus says to them in Matthew 10:16, "Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves."

The word "harmless" in the Greek means artless. And that doesn't mean you can't draw! It literally means don't use your own ingenuity. In other words, God is not impressed when we use our own ideas to do His work. We are to be wise as serpents. Now how is the serpent wise? Well, he is very alert and he watches and doesn't make quick reactions. That's what we are to be doing. We are to observe and be artless as doves. We all know how artless a dove is. And Jesus said that's the kind of person I will use.

Malachi 3:10

That's true Rick but I also think their are many instances in the Bible that carry more than one meaning, that are examples for us.

It never ceases to amaze me that there's people that do understand and still reject Jesus. Just like when satan is released for a short time after the thousand years we spend on this planet with Jesus Christ himself and there's people that choose to follow him. Ignorance I understand and I guess the answer is a case of pure evil but I just can't wrap my head around that.

Thanks again for your input, I truly appreciate it. I've been saved since 1985 and the more I learn the more I realize I don't know. I thank the Lord daily for his patience with me and I'm very thankful that he sees my heart and hopefully, overlooks my stumbling

God bless you and yours

I believe it is like the nature of them. A serpent hides for conflict & watches it's opponent, yet instead of striking HE says be harmless as doves, doves are gentle don't peck or bite, they do however defend family & territory, I've also heard some will hide their nest & lead people & other creatures away from it.

So, I believe it means when Jesus was directing HIS first disciple; He knew the dangers they would encounter as they went. Matthew 10:16-18, He knew they needed directions. Matthew 10,

Example : I, by nature can be rather bold, knowing GOD has amazing power in all circumstance. That was before I faced severely dangerous situations for myself & family. When we were in a hostile area, unfamiliar territory overtaken with much crime & lawlessness, the LORD reminded me of these scriptures. It is wise in dangerous, unfamiliar area to be wise, observant, 'out of the spotlight', meek. It kept us safer, yet because we were different it also gave testimony. The scriptures also said "for the testimony against them" .

In response to:

Robert on Mark 10

God had laws even back then...he called them the 10 commandments, and before that were sacrifices to our Father to be in good standing with our Father in Heaven. I pray this helps....God Bless

Pat P.S. I looked at that verse and its in the context of the judean nation in total rebellion, not one

person obeying at the time, disobeyed knowing. Many now disobey and don't know or aren't taught

correctly that's a different condition [ ignorance ] but then again you have the ones who know and disobey

different situation. God Bless

Anthony,

Paul touches on this in 1 Corinthians 14:15. He says "What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also:

He puts himself out there hypothetically as saying "If I did what you did, if I prayed in the spirit, but not with my mind, and I prayed in an unknown tongue, then my understanding is unfruitful. I don't even understand what I'm praying!"

So he says "I will pray with the Spirit." He didn't say anything about tongues. He says I will pray with the Spirit, and pray with the understanding also. So when I pray, it will be from my spirit where Christ dwells, but I'm also going to pray thoughts. There are things that I want to pray about and I'm literally involved with Jesus Christ. I'm not bypassing my brain to try and reach some type of spiritual euphoria. This is a relationship!

Paul then says I will sing with the spirit, and with understanding also. You see, to those people in Corinth, it's like "That's unspiritual!" But once you start understanding the songs you sing, and this is what we are guilty of today, is that we have a lot of songs that we just repeat the same phrases over and over again. And it's like hypnotic stuff. People try to reach a spiritual high. And then you sing other songs, and people will say "Well, I don't feel the spirit there," but the song might have some good doctrine to it.

Once a person is saved, the battle is for the mind. It's no wonder that Satan brings some of the pagan mystic religions into the church to try and reach a spiritual high! As far as singing in the Spirit, Paul says in Ephesians 5:18-20 "Don't be drunk with wine, but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to yourselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord."

One of the things of being filled with the Spirit is singing with melody in your heart. It doesn't necessarily mean with your mouth. Paul says I'm going to sing with my understanding also!

Hope this helps?

Pat From what I'm seeing plenty of people know about hell not enough are taught about love. That being

said God bless.

Hi David,

I say that due too what I form studying Classic Theology on who God is. The Scripture state tat God is in need of nothing. He is perfectly complete within the Godhead. If He had need of something, then that which He needed would demand a necessity outside of Himself. Everything God has created is not needed by God.

Paul, in Athens, stated "God, who made the heavens and the earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands, Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything since He gives all life, breath, and all things."

Acts 17:24-15.

God chose to create the world and all who live upon it out of His benevolence and goodness, by volition, not because He needs us or needs someone to love. There is infinite perfect love within the Godhead, therefore, no love can truly be added to Him or taken from Him. We, and everything He has created could very well be a possible not-have-been by His volition. But He cannot be a possible not-have-been. His existence is within Himself, therefore He is ever-existent.

The theological terms I am speaking up is God's simplicity, completeness, self-existence, and self satisfaction. You can google these terms and read more about it and the Scriptural basis for these things. I encourage this.

Thanks for asking.

I apologize, this is a Corrected Copy

Precious friend Curray, No, not everybody will be accepted into heaven:

Only those who "believe in The Precious BLOOD Of CHRIST, And in His Resurrection from the dead, According To The SCRIPTURES," Will God, By GRACE, Give His FREE Gift Of ETERNAL Life! Rom 5:15-18 Link

God's Simple Will:

A) Believe The GRACE Gospel 1 Cor 15:3-4 Eph 2:8-9 Rom 3 Rom 4 Rom 5

This ALONE Is ALL-Sufficient For God's ETERNAL Life = 'Relationship' With God!

Rightly Divided 2 Timothy 2:15 From "Things That DIFFER!" *:

Note, this 'Relationship' should NEVER be 'Confused' With 'fellowship' With Jesus, in which 'believers With ETERNAL Life' "follow Paul as he followed CHRIST" 1Co 4:16 1Cor 11:1 And we receive "REWARDS for good works!" 1Co 3:7-12 1Co 3:12-15 Amen? ie

B) LOVE thy neighbor, fulfil ALL The Law Gal 5:14 Rom 13:8-10

C) Study, "Approved Unto God" 2 Tim 2:15 Rom 16:25 Eph 3:9 Grace/Mystery 'fellowship,' today! Also: Link

Brother Adam:

You ask if I believe what I am saying is TRUE.

Of course I believe what I am saying is TRUE.

You believe what you are saying is TRUE.

God says that we are just vessels and he does all things though his vessels, therefore the words coming out of your mouth are God's words, just as the words coming out of my mouth are God's words. All of this is for a PURPOSE of God, to bring us to KNOWLEDGE of God.

God doesn't have to have us, he could raise children out of stones.

God PURPOSED to do things a certain way, we are part of that PURPOSE. God will not fail fulfilling HIS PURPOSE.

Our REST in Christ is knowing and believing God's purpose will not FAIL.

GOD WILL BE ALL IN ALL.

Hi again Pastor Curray.

Are you asking "What is our views on limited atonement?

God bless.

My question is, what does the word of God means "to be wise as the serpents and harmless as doves"?

Rick I truly appreciate your response but I have to mention in reference to your comment about " in our day and time " I don't believe what the Lord directed us about witnessing has changed. Remember the Bible tells us that God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. I think people need to know that hell is real and eternal. We also will be held accountable for people God brings into our lives for us to share the Gospel with that we don't share Salvation with. I've been praying for our Lord to open the door for me to witness and I believe he has shown me a way. I still haven't found the verses I remember reading but will continue to study until I do. There's something similar in Ezekiel 2:7&8

God bless

Brother Adam: I have a question for you, you don't have to answer back, you only have to answer to yourself.

For what purpose did GOD SAVE YOU.

How much it cost a Catholic Bible w large print???

Hi Pastor Curray.

That's an interesting question coming from your position. Can you share your take on this? In what manner does you pastor your congregation in regards to this?

God bless.

Brother Adam:

Jesus came to save us from death and the grave.

God wants children, sons and daughters.

Death and the grave separate God and his children.

Jesus DESTROYED DEATH and the GRAVE at the cross.

God is calling out a PRIESTHOOD, before he resurrects his children back to LIFE, these CHOSEN will govern and rule over God's creation and bring ALL his children into KNOWLEDGE of God. Then Jesus will turn the kingdom back to the Father who gave it to him and GOD WILL BE ALL IN ALL.

You can't have the Word of God saying two opposite things.

You can't have verses that say all creation will worship God and other verses saying creation will be separated and not worshipping God.

The error is in translation. Correct the error and the verses agree with each other.

Our KJV was translated from the Latin Catholic bible, the translator used the words that had been changed by the Catholic church instead of going to the original Greek and Hebrew scriptures.

Also meaning of words change, 500 years ago hell meant a covered place, the English farmers kept their potatoes in HELL (a covered place or cellar)(like a grave).

Christ tells us to rightly divide his word, seek out contradiction and correctly apply other scriptures to have complete continuity.

Repent (turn) from what you thought was correct doctrine to correct doctrine. In this walk we will have to Repent many times, because God's word is LIVING and keeps revealing himself to us.

Psalms 94:10 He that chastens the heathen, shall he NOT CORRECT? he that teacheth man knowledge SHALL MAN NO KNOW?

ALL IS GOD'S WORK man is just the vessel (body).

Thank you !!

tooth pulled 2morrow ,may it come out in one piece!?, LORD WILLING!!
