  • Tony on Genesis 6 - 4 years ago
    Who or what were the sons of God? Were they spirits or men?

    Consider this key related verse, Job 2:1 - there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD. If they presented themselves to God, the sons of God had to be spirits. But they weren't good spirits. How do we know this? They were led by their leader, Satan, and were being called by God to account for themselves. Being evil, they were being banished from heaven and given the choice of remaining a spirit, like Satan, or assuming a natural body.

    We know that the soul (and spirit) are given to man at birth. I propose that when the evil spirits were banished, they commandeered the spirits of new-borns. This gave the evil spirits, which didn't have physical bodies and therefore couldn't have sex, the physical attributes needed to marry and have children as noted in Genesis 6:4.

    This would also explain Genesis 6:3 - And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh. "that he [the evil spirits] also is flesh." Implies that the evil spirits had become men. It would also explain the outburst of wickedness found later in Genesis 6. And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. It was because (6.4) the children of the sons of God and daughters of men had become mighty men which ere of old, men of renown with natural bodies but evil spirits.

    May the Holy Ghost lead us in knowledge. Peace to you and yours.

    All scientists seek to explain FOUR QUESTIONS: Time, Force, Action, Matter. (Even Steven Hawking)

    I was reading in Genesis, the Holy Spirit stops me on verse 1. He said the 4 things

    TIME: in the beginning__God set TIME ticking

    FORCE: The Godhead created. (Father, The Word ( John 1:1) and Holy Spirit

    ACTION: and the Spirit of God MOVED over

    MATTER: earth, waters, atoms

    God purposed, Word spoke: Light Be, and there was Light. (Purpose Spoke Light)

    Carbon dating proves earth is around 2-3 billion years. Satan was around but he's a created being himself. He cannot create dinosaurs, cavemen or anything. My personal theory is: Romans 1:19-20. God put the artifacts in earth for us to find; oil for our cars, coal to be warm, fresh water for us and salted water for creatures.

    We have to pray for scientists to see the Book of Romans. It's an occupation, as is archaeology, bio science, medicine. We are without excuse if we refuse to acknowledge The Godhead.

    They're going to flip out when they get to heaven and see it's lighted up by the Glory of Jesus (The Son) and not a sun.

    Jesus wants us to know this stuff because THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR TEACHER. All we have to do is ask Him. It's not a secret.

    I don't discuss the giants because angels do not marry. We will be as the angels in heaven, in that we will not marry or procreate. Survivors of the entire Tribulation who have received Jesus as savior and managed to survive alive without mass murder by Antichrist will be taken to heaven in human reproducing bodies for 1000 years. They'll have to resist satans deceptions when he gets a short parole to tempt the still human. :D then Satan goes to the lake of fire forever. O happy days!

    These present troubles are just temporary. Let's spread the Word to the Harvest and get as many in as we can. We're going to be living with The God that purposed all of this!

    This was my Bible Study time with my Teacher, Holy Spirit, ok? Save the emails.

    Hi Teresa Isaiah 9:1-7 is foretelling of the spiritual condition of the holy lands at the time of Jesus Christ birth

    and coming ministry the Light of the World and spreading Gods Word. The term spiritual darkness is the condition

    of this world we live in. Now we spread the light of Gods word by the good news being the gospel.

    A lot of the fulfillment concerning Jesus Christ is written in the Gospels examples Mathew 1:22+23,

    Mathew 4:14-16, John 12:38-40. God Bless

    As important as this country is, I find it hard to believe that it is not specifically mentioned in the Bible.

    In terms of the good this country had done for others throughout the world it might be the greatest country in history. So it is difficult to accept that it is only included in "all nations."
  • USING THE SEARCH BOX TO GET TO THE COMMENTARY BOX - 4 years ago
    When you come into this website you're on the RED LINK PAGE.

    Up at the top is the SEARCH BOX. Links for the entire Bible is below that.

    It's a really great SEARCH ENGINE, but just for Bible subject.

    You can put the word 'Atonement' in the Search box and hit the arrow >

    The engine will fetch every scripture that contains that word. You can sort the list; and the engine places the list in book order.

    Or you can read either Old Testament verses only

    Or, New Testament verses only

    With DATES OR HISTORY, you'll have to go on Google. Type it in like this:

    "Atonement, history".

    (Or date)

    You have to use ancient names from ancient maps.

    By using all the search options, you'll learn some really awesome information. If search doesn't fetch anything try wording it differently.

    If it fetches 10,000 verses; try wording it another way or just look at only OT or NT verses.

    Look around on this whole website to see what's in it. If you get lost, just back out and come back in. Curious is good.

    The location of the COMMENTARY BOX is below the search box. Touch a scripture and it will highlight YELLOW. Scroll down slowly.

  • Isaiah 9_2 Commentary - In Reply - 4 years ago
    A partial commentary:

    Matthew 4:16 ) ( John 1:48 ) ( John 7:49 John 7:52 ) and is a true character of all the people of God before conversion, who are in a state of darkness, under the power of sin, shut up in unbelief; are in gross ignorance of themselves, and their condition; of sin, and the danger they are exposed to by it; of divine and spiritual things; of the grace of God; of the way of peace, life, and salvation by Christ; and of the work of the blessed Spirit; and of the truths of the Gospel; they are in the dark, and can see no objects in a spiritual sense; not to read the word, so as to understand it; or to work that which is good; and they "walk" on in darkness, not knowing where they are, and whither they are going; and yet of these it is said, they have seen a great light,

    Christ himself, who conversed among the Galilaeans, preached unto them, and caused the light of his glorious Gospel to shine into many of their hearts; by which their darkness was removed, so that they not only saw Christ, this great light, with their bodily eyes, but with the eyes of their understanding; who may be called the "light", because he is the author and giver of all light, even of nature, grace, and glory; and a "great" one, because he is the sun, the greatest light, the sun of righteousness, the light of the world, both of Jews and Gentiles; he is the true light, in distinction from all typical ones, and in opposition to all false ones, and who in his person is God over all. They that dwell in the land of the shadow of death;

    I'll post how to access this website commentary box separately, so look for it.

  • Commentary on What FOES mean - In Reply on Acts 2 - 4 years ago
    This is part of a commentary on Acts 2:35. You can read the whole thing on BibleRefDOTcom (type a period where I typed DOT)

    You might read Matthew 10:36 also

    It is true that David had many military battles and attributed his victories to God (see Psalm 18), but the enemies referred to in Psalm 110:1, quoted here in Acts 2:35, are Jesus' enemies (FOES) including the Antichrist, Satan, sin, and the ultimate enemy, which is death ( 1 Corinthians 15:26). The suggestion that Jesus waits for God to defeat His enemies is an interesting one. The author of Hebrews reaffirms it in Hebrews 10:12-13. In Philippians 2:1-9, Paul explains that Jesus voluntarily submitted Himself to God and took on the role of a servant. In return, God has exalted Jesus' name so that "at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father" ( Philippians 2:10-11).

    "Footstool" is from the Greek root word hypopodion. This is like calling something an "underfoot" in English. In common practice, it means a stool or resting place for one's feet. As a metaphor, it refers to the tradition of military leaders to place their feet on the necks of those they had conquered. Jesus' enemies will be completely vulnerable and in complete subjection to Him. We don't know when, but we do know at least one thing: God will do it, not us ( John 18:36).

  • Chris - In Reply on Hebrews 4 - 4 years ago
    Hi Tony. You may be referring to Exodus 31:12-17. This Law was given to Israel in line with Day 7 of the Days of Creation - the Day that God "rested (or, ceased) from all His work" ( Genesis 2:3). The Law, which included the keeping of the seventh day (the Sabbath), & circumcision, were the signs that made God's people a special, chosen people, unlike any other nation on Earth. As God ceased from His Work of creation, so He required His people (Israel) to set a specific day each week to also rest from their labours. And the fact that God sanctified the day (i.e. He set it apart as a special day), meant that Israel should engage themselves with other things other than going through the rigors of daily toil. So, it was a day of physical rest & also a day when their minds could re-focus on their Creator & learning more about Him.

    Israel today still keep the Sabbath as required of them. But those of Judaism who have come out, finding new life & liberty in Jesus Christ & led of the Spirit are no longer under the Law ( Galatians 5:18), just as the Gentiles who are "without the Law" ( 1 Corinthians 9:21), are not required to be bound to it - to a Law that only showed man his sin & his incapability to fully obey it ( Romans 7:7 ff).

    Both Jew & Gentile still need a rest day from hard toil - for the Jew, the seventh day was appointed. For the Christian, any day could be a day of physical rest. For the Jew, he went to the Temple or Synagogue on the Sabbath to worship God - for the Christian, he can worship God on any day he chooses. The early Church met on the first day of the week to worship ( Acts 20:7), fellowship & break bread together, remembering the Lord Who gave His Life for them & rose from the grave on the first day of the week. So, there is no commandment to break; the Sabbath for worship together does not apply to the Christian - some worship on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday - maybe even other days. But if Sabbath is forced upon Christians, then we have a problem.

    Keep your beliefs grounded in the solid, unchanging Word of God. Don't base your beliefs on experiences. It's dangerous ground, sir.
  • George Waugh on Psalms 91 - 4 years ago
    Psalms 91 is certainly a great Psalm regarding Jehovah God's protection. The King James presents it the best. First of all, it describes the place of Divine protection, "The secret place". This is referring to a special relationship with Jehovah God. In Psalms 31:20 we see where that 'secret place' is, "You shall hide them in the secret place of Your presence from the plots of man: You shall keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues." It is when we dwell continuously in God's presence that we obtain that special protection.

  • Our Lives Hidden in Jesus's Love and Strength - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Gigi, when I believed (Yom Kippur 1985) I was an astrologer giving an interpretation To a friend; a backslid Methodist. I'm gonna leave out details due to space. She sat in the floor folding clothes. It was like her face was folded over and I saw the Lord on a white horse in the clouds. He was looking right into my eyes. I went into shock. Debbie got spooked at my expression and left. The Bible said that people who do occult are under a sentence of death. I wanted to Live. Hell appeared in the floor. I stood on a chair and became convinced a hand was extended to me from the ceiling. I took it. If you go right into evangelism, Satan sends his scariest goons to scare you and make you stop. It just made me mad. He thought I'd cave, but I just got deeper into the life of Jesus. I ain't going back! I asked the Holy Spirit to give me the gift of: discerning of spirits. And He did. You can discern between human, Divine and demonic. It has saved my life more than once. I was given the word of Wisdom. The Holy Spirit chooses what we need. Consuming Bible builds up our most Holy Faith.

    I gave a friends friend a ride home from church. On the way, he starts hissing and twisting. The HS says keep you eyes on me. The guy pulls out a butcher knife; I speed up. I dropped him off and was able to breathe again. He had a python spirit (demon).

    Point is, I think people in ministry need to ask the Holy Spirit for the best gifts for them. Learn what each one does. He's in control and he will teach us what we need to say or do. It is NEVER for to give us fame or glory. The gifts glorify God. The anointing will leave if it becomes about and Not Jesus. Isaiah 61.

    So ask for the best gifts for your life and ministry.

    Deepen your relationship with Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Worship and Praise the Father. There is no limitation on LOVE. One tip: angels love praise or scripture music :D make your home a sanctuary.

    We Do, We put it on.

    With it we're well equipped.

    If we think we can do anything more than that, We're taking it off!!

    We would fail like Peter did when the Desciples were absent of the Holyspirit.

    Redemption has been settled on the cross.

    The Armor is to do exactly what it says it does.

    Ephesians 6:11. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may BE ABLE TO STAND AGAINST THE " WILES " ( Schemes )OF THE DEVIL.

    Satan doesn't come to you as a wolf! He comes to you as a wolf in SHEEP'S CLOTHING.

    Satan is subtil. That's how he approached Eve. " Now the serpent was more " SUBTIL " than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. Genesis 3:1."

    But the Lords sheep don't hear his voice!!

    Jesus is the chief shepherd and those who shepherd his flock will show the fruit of the Spirit not the works of the flesh.

    "No coveting the glory in Christ victory"

    When someone is in the Spirit they want speak much of themselves, They will speak of the Work of Christ on the Cross.

    Worshipping in truth and in Spirit is CAUSED by the Holyspirit.

    Here's the only weapon we have, The word of God!!

    And it's not given to you to use to bind Demons!!

    It's given to you to minister the gospel and "IT" will divide asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, I believe That happens when you are QUICKENED by it..

    Our flesh is also our enemy. The flesh can become super sensual when ministering in the flesh and lacking the spirit.

    I'm Sorry but we're just going to have to agree to disagree on this one.

    1 John 4:4. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

    God bless

  • Rick - In Reply on Judges 8 - 4 years ago
    Hi Kevin We live in a time of tremendous opportunity to bless and deliver people but also of so called prophets

    and teachers who are going political or acceptable of certain practices that God plainly states is straight up

    idolatrous including the prosperity trip where they live in unbelievable out of balance wealth. The people teaching

    are constantly asking for more and more no balance. It seems like lust of flesh of eyes and the pride of life.

    In the bible the people were so blessed that they brought in and had all things in common without being ask

    or made to feel like if you don't give, God won't do anything for you and that's a lie. That being said there are

    many who hunger and thirst after righteousness.

    Increasingly enough, the United States is showing itself to be Mystery Babylon. Lawlessness and corruption run wild. Russia proved the treachery of America from lies. It must be satisfying being Vlad, knowing time is almost come to fall away. US Transgender parades stink of Sodom and Gomorrah. Most Americans can't come to terms with America getting what it's been giving since World War II. They would have to see it in flames to say, yeah now I get it, America was Babylon and I missed the clues from my pomp: Ha ha ha. How can I let Jeremiah 50 and Jeremiah 51 pass me bye?

  • Rick - 4 years ago
    Hi Gigi Here's one for you the word says Adam and Eve were the first humans but it also says in Genesis

    1:28 for Adam and Eve to multiply and replenish the earth which means there was something there before them.

    That's is not speculation that is written and I believe what ever they were originally got messed up between genesis 1:1

    and 1:2. Its says in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth then verse two and the earth was without

    form and void, the puzzle here is the word was because some places this is in Italics which means it was added and other places regular print. Examples italics verse 4,10,12,18,21 regular print 3,7,9,11,15, since God is light and In Him is

    no darkness at all and Our God is a God of perfect order verse two would make more sense if it said became that way

    because that where satan was throne out of heaven and corrupted Gods Creation and wreaked havoc. Just stuff I think about when I work scripture. Any other input insight appreciated.
  • David - In Reply on Exodus 20 - 4 years ago
    Hi Sandy Most Alters or symple places of worship were just made of stone literally large rocks that no tools were used at certain locations where a Godly event took place. There are also times when these alters were made and either individuals or

    the people gathered together to commit something to God. Basically swearing by the alter. In the Book of 1 Kings

    18:21 is the start of a fantastic record of God by a prophet bringing His people back to Him By a Miracle. There was an

    altar on mount Carmel and Elijah called all the people together and said tell you what lets set up the altar and prepare

    a sacrifice and the prophets of baal or satan can call on their god and if he burns the sacrifice no matches he's god, but if I call on the Lord thy God and if He burn's it up then worship him. So 850 worships of baal prayed all day almost no

    fire, and they were so angry they were cutting themselves and wrecked the altar. Then Elijah instructed the people exactly how to reassemble it and

    fried some heads when He ordered 4 barrels of water poured over the whole sacrifice until it was soaked prayed to the

    God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob for fire to come down and it cane down from heaven and burn't the offering the wood and stone, end result 850 prophets of baal were slaughtered, and the people for a while turned back to Jehovah.

    That's a situation of swearing by a sacrifice. Complete story 1 Kings 18:17-40. Good Stuff
