    Earl P.S. We need to take a hint from our Brother in heaven he always taught and displayed the Love, Heart and healing power of His Father and He was very aware of His enemy but did not magnify or dwell on him or the world. So for us

    Phil.4:8+9 at the end the guarantee and the God of peace shall be with you.

    Earl,

    Sorry, it took me a while to study your posts. Scripture is clear; the lake of fire is real and it was prepared for Satan and his angels, Matthew 25:41. Those whose name is not in the book of life will be cast into this lake of fire, the second death, this is the death the saints will be spared. According to scripture we all will be judged and our reward will be given, good or bad according to our works Revelation 22:12. Each of us will have different rewards, some lights will be brighter than others, Daniel 12:2-3 and whether in the lake of fire, the punishments may be also judged accordingly.

    My understanding is we do not get a second chance for salvation after this life in this flesh, Hebrews 9:27. We have this, there are evil and good people that live and have lived and those who did not have a chance to hear of the word of God, this may show how they will be judged at the white throne judgment, Romans 2:12-15 (this is my understanding of this), but those who have heard and rejected it, Katy bar the door.

    I must humbly disagree, I am not in the lake of fire, we will be judged with fire, 1 Corinthians 3:11-15. The Bible has symbolic wording but represents real things, people, kingdoms, etc. I am sorry I can't follow interpreting the scriptures by allegorizing all, I feel we turn all scripture into parables.

    Skewed logic: I have had this conversation with more than one woman who was pregnant and didn't want to be , why don't you have the baby and give it up for adoption ? Answer : oh I couldn't do that ! I'd never stop thinking about it , worrying if it's ok , if it's happy , if it's going to knock on my door in eighteen years time etc , no , I'd rather have an abortion then it's just gone and I never have to think of it again . That's what I call skewed logic , it's the same kind of logic that is offended by the thought that sinners are just dead and would much rather they were tortured in hell for eternity . We are all sinners . Some of us know the Truth , some of us don't want to know the Truth and very many of us have never had the chance to .

    Brother Rick:

    1 Timothy 4:10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the SAVIOUR OF ALL MEN, specially of those that believe.

    1 Timothy 4:11 These things COMMAND and TEACH.

    Does the doctrines of man believe Jesus is SAVIOUR OF ALL MEN, NO.

    Does the doctrines of man TEACH Jesus is SAVIOUR OF ALL MEN, NO.

    Amos 3:3 Can two walk together (BE ONE) except they be agreed?

    Matthew 5:25 AGREE with your adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him: lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.

    2 Thessalonians 2:10 And with all DECEIVABLENESS of unrighteousness in then that perish; because they RECEIVE NOT the TRUTH, that they might be saved.

    2 Thessalonians 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion that they should believe a lie.

    The lie, man's doctrine, that God is not a saviour of the world.

    Matthew 5:44 And I say unto you, Love you enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you, and persecute you;

    Matthew 5:45 That you may be children of your Father which is in heaven; for he maketh the sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just an unjust.

    Do you believe God COMMANDS you to love your enemies, YET he is going to send his enemies to HELL.

    Man LOVES the doctrine of HELL because that gives them freedom to HATE their enemies.
  • David - In Reply on John 21 - 4 years ago
    Earl What other people do is on them our Job spiritual occupation is Go,Stand,Speak to the people the words of this Life, also 2 Corinthians 5: 17-21 we reconcile men to God witnesses, we are ambassadors, we are the righteousness of

    God in Him. Our job is to love em up not ridicule condemn and criticise, the world does that. Remember there the lost bugs in the dark we are the light that attracts, so let your light so shine. We say that we are His and He is Ours deeds are

    proof of this and not words and these are the proving hours!

    Hw did john died?
  • Rick - In Reply on John 21 - 4 years ago
    Earl You didn't imply that was your statement that God showed you the Kingdom or whats really going on.
  • Rick - In Reply on John 21 - 4 years ago
    Earl Man knew God Romans 1:18-22 they knew God and they changed not God, also The bible is the Knowledge of

    God it is just not believed. So don't understand your statement.
  • Earl Bowman - In Reply on John 21 - 4 years ago
    Brother Rick, I was not implying that God has only revealed the truth to me, but that it has to be God, through his word and his S pirit, that reveals the TRUTH, not following the tradition of man's teaching.

    Few find the way.

    Two thirds of the world don't read the bible, mostly those professing to be Christians are the ones that read the bible.

    Why then does only a few, that read the bible, find the way, this should concern us, what is it that we think we see, but don't.

    John 9:41 Jesus said unto them, If you were blind, you should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

    John 9:39 And Jesus said, for JUDGEMENT I am come unto this world, that they which SEE NOT might SEE, and they WHICH SEE might be MADE BLIND.

    Satan who deceives the WHOLE WORLD, that includes the two thirds that profess to be Christians.

    What is it that man teaches. that deceives the whole world.

    You have to let the Spirit, through his word teach you, and it will be different than what man teaches.
  • Earl Bowman - In Reply on John 21 - 4 years ago
    Amen Sister Sacha, Hosea 4, man has no knowledge of God's way. One day they will be like Paul, in an instant of burning light, they will fall to their knees and say, what will you have me do LORD.
  • Thomas L. Shoemate on Psalms 63 - 4 years ago
    I am deeply concerned that in the midst of worldwide government oppression, God is doing something to deliver Christians from this oppression and to let us see his glory. I realize that he could just let world events run its course without him doing anything out of ordinary and time just go on with us continuing as now. But I want to know God's will. I have committed that I will do his will as he reveals it to me. I feel that many are with me on this search and I invite your response. God bless you in Christ Jesus, Amen.

  • David - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Mishael That's what I'm talking about let the old man Go and walk in the new Creation in you with Christ, we are

    perfect physically we are perfect spiritually in Gods Eyes. We are now on Gods Team!
  • Rick - In Reply on John 21 - 4 years ago
    Good Morning English Sacha My bible says God is all love when or if some decides to go totally against the God of

    Life and love and peace then the only thing left for God to do is I'll wait, but unless you come back to me my hands are

    tied. Romans 1:21-23 man walks away God is, Jesus Christ in the gospels walked and worked the works of God

    for all those with one condition they had to believe and even then he helped there unbelief. The only time he didn't do

    many mighty works was in his own home town because they didn't believe. John 3:16 speaks loudly.

    Can anyone recommend an enlightening discussion on baptism? Why does the Bible say to be baptized in the name of Jesus,

    and then In Matthew 28 Jesus Himself says to be baptized in the name of The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

    Does one trump the other? Or shall I be baptized in both?

    Baptism was right to me from the beginning of my life and I doubt I can ever see that from a different point of view.

    Matthew 28:19

    And and all input welcome but no please if you could answer my specific question that would be super helpful.
  • Tes - 4 years ago
    I am totally new to this site...praise God I was led here.

    I would like more insight into Ephesians 1v14;

    "give complete freedom to those that are his"

    what freedom is spoken of here?

    is it freedom now in this living world?

    is there freedom in life after death?
  • David - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Good Morning Jesse It is interesting to me how we have been delivered through the operation of the faith of Jesus

    Christ but the enemy has tricked even believers to be so to speak to have a sense of sin conscienceness

    when God says No.

    In the New Man live in the spirit Romans 8 declare or make up your mind reckon your old man

    dead in Gods eyes he does not exist. This is the freedom in Christ Jesus because what you think about is what you become.

    If I think about making a wrong move or sin I'm afraid I'll go to hell there is no metal freedom to walk in newness of Life. That's like telling a child go play in a jungle gym but be careful or you'll die.

    KIng David committed adultery and murder and God still called Him a

    after His own Heart even back then God knows the flesh means nothing He was always looking at Davids heart. It doesn't

    change with us, in our heart we know what we want to do but our natural mind fights our inner man. Lets live and love in

    the freedom in Christ Jesus. God Bless

    Good Morning Barbara Due to Adams disobedience to Gods only command in Genesis 3 Eden, he handed over all the

    authority was given by God to serpent [it wasn't a literal snake figure of speech for his satans sly deception] that's why

    in luke 4:6 the devil tells Jesus all the power and authority was handed to him that was done by Adam. In Romans

    8:20-22 that was and is the effect all of creation suffers animals included satan put all of creation in a power struggle or

    his confusion. The opposite side when we believe in Romans 10:9+10 all that authority that adam lost we are given back

    to us in Ephesians 1:17-21 we again have that power and authority when we claim the name above all names

    Jesus Christ. Thank God for what he did for us by Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Godf Bless.

    Mr. Bass & T. Levis Thank you, that helped a lot!!! I was dissecting each verse to much Jesus, holds The Key of David!!! Amen
  • Rick - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hello Barbara When Adam went against Gods Word the dominion and power that he had over creation was handed to the adversary or devil Luke 4:6 and that's when he became God of this world and all creation paid for that sin Romans

    8:20-22. Even the weather conditions when Hurricanes and floods, drought etc. occur its the adversary affecting remember John 10:9 The thief cometh not [his only purpose] but to steal kill and destroy. Our God is the Author of life!
  • Coming Back Home To Your Father - In Reply on Psalms 3 - 4 years ago
    Dear Father, I return now to you, the Bible, and your Word. I pray for guidance as I listen for your voice. Let me return to what is most important-you. Help my attitude to change so that instead of focusing on others and events to meet my needs, I can turn to you and find the love, purpose, and direction I seek.

    Lord you said in Joel 2:25, 32

    "And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath Eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.

    2:32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered:"

    1 John 1:9

    If we confess our sins, HE is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

    [Ask the Lord to renew your faith as you read your Bible]

    Your first reading assignment:

    Satan tried to destroy Job's faith and trust in God. He took his home, animals, all his kids died in a wicked storm ( Job 1) Jobs health hit rock bottom; his friends accused him:

    In the last chapter, God gave him back ten times more than what he lost.

    Grow your faith consuming scripture. Keep coming back here for fellowship; till you find a church that teaches Bible.

    Hosea Ch 4 .
  • Chris - In Reply - 4 years ago
    That's a very good question, Barbara. Maybe you'll get other thoughts expressed here, but I tend to think that even though animals haven't sinned, indeed they cannot sin, they can still be affected by the general corruption that has taken place all over the world. Why would some animals want to kill other animals & humans? I don't believe that in the beginning this was ever the norm. Why does the Earth suffer such horrendous storms, earthquakes & famines? Again, I think that all these have come about because of Satan's presence, both influencing man to sin & the many tragedies we see now. Another thought is, that it's possible that God always intended animals to age & die as they do not bear the Image of God not having the capacity to be ministered & moved by His Holy Spirit ( Ecclesiastes 3:21). But these are just my thoughts - others may have some more useful things to share.
  • English Sacha - In Reply on John 21 - 4 years ago
    Are you saying that sinners should be punished to satisfy your need for vengeance ? Or why should you be good if the only punishment bad people suffer is death ? Is being ressurected to spend eternity with your God and your saviour not enough of a reward for you ? Do you want to be able to look down into hell and watch people suffer eternal torture , many of whom will have never had the chance to know the Truth through no fault of their own ? Children ? Mentally handicapped or mentally ill people ? Will that make the sacrifices that you have made in your life in order to spend eternity with The God of All Creation and His Son your Redeemer worth it to you ? GOD IS LOVE , HE HATES NO ONE ,HE LOVES EVERY ONE , HE IS KIND AND MERCY FULL TO EVERY ONE . Do you think He wants to see the ignorant tortured for ever ? He would be able to see that , do you think that would give Him pleasure ,HE SAYS : THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH , He says that . There are millions of people who have lived and we're loved by their God and didn't know any thing about Him ,He didn't love them any less because of their ignorance . They should defo go to a place of torture and misery for ever ,is that what you think ? I'm very glad that God is not like us . Sorry if I sound aggressive , I don't mean to , amongst the things I know about God : He is not cruel He loves all of His creation He is never unfair or cold hearted or vicious and He takes no pleasure in our suffering .I'm not a J . W. in case you are wondering .

  • Mishael - In Reply - 4 years ago
    In Genesis God gave us Dominion and put us in charge over creation; but not humans.

    I love animals too. Just like us, they get sick, old or injured and they die. Try to be happy for the time you had with your critters. Don't be afraid to love again. God is Love. It's in our likeness of Him to love others as best we can; even pets.
  • We are not under Condemnation - In Reply - 4 years ago
    ROMANS 7 (the "I" chapter).count how many times Paul said "I". He was really stressing about the flesh

    "23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

    24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

    25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

    ROMANS 8:1 [ THE GOOD NEWS]

    1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

    2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

    When Paul arrived at Romans 8:1 he discovered victory in and through, Jesus; by the indwelling Holy Spirit. Happiness through reverence is wonderful.
