2 Peter 1:20
This scripture means that no one scripture has ALL TRUTH in that scripture; but must be held in light of all other scriptures to come TO TRUTH.
All scriptures have to AGREE, otherwise you are misapplying the TRUTH of the scriptures.
Only the Spirit can led you to TRUTH.
Ask and it shall be GIVEN, in Spirit's appointed time.
Appreciate your kind comments on my last post.
To begin, my comment concerning the number of resurrections from death by Christ must have not been clear to you. I know of only 3 recorded resurrections performed by Christ: Lazarus, John 11:1-44; the widow's son, Luke 7:11-17; and Jairus's daughter, Luke 8:40-56 I then expressed my opinion there were most likely more that were not recorded. I see Christ as a compassionate savior, and personally, believe more miracles were performed than are recorded in today's Bible.
My conviction the story of Lazarus the beggar is a parable is based on the Hebrew meaning of the name Lazarus meaning "God has helped". Christ was speaking to an audience of disciples originally and some Pharisees later joined the group, verse 14, and began to deride Christ. Christ then speaks to the Pharisees as to their violations of the Law and the parable of Lazarus.
The parable of Lazarus serves a twofold purpose. First it serves to emphasize the responsibility of those more fortunate to aid the less fortunate. Second, it foretales the rejection of Christ by the Jews, even after the resurrection. The first purpose most likely fell on deaf ears as the Pharisees because of their self-righteousness. The second was not realized and accepted by even the remaining 11 disciples initially.
Reference to the place of the spirit after death until the gathering of the church by Christ is referenced after the resurrection by Paul, in many places in scripture. Paul refers to the "holding place: as sleep.
Now, where did the souls John sees in Revelation come from and at what point did they arrive in heaven. Revelation 3:10 is easily interperted as the rapture before tribulation. Revelation 7:9-17 surely is post-rapture by content.
My point - the spirit of the vast majority of Christians do not enter heaven prior to the rapture. Enoch, perhaps. Elijiah definitely ( 2 Kings 2:11).
Thank you, my brother in Christ
A word of encouragement Some of the people we will spend eternity with are found in these churches! So go and love them! Encourage them! Pray for them! They are God's people.
A lot of people that attend church aren't even saved (yet?). There's work to be done there. It's a mission field. They're starving for The Word of God. I know I was.
Your love for The Bible is MUCH needed in the church today. The devil has crept in like a wolf in sheep's clothing and will do his best to twist, distort, deceive, destroy doctrine, and remove The Word of God from the pulpit and the congregation if possible!
The King James Bible says not to forsake the assembling of ourselves TOGETHER in the HOUSE of the Lord as the manner of some is, and even more so as that day draws near.
Is it possible the church is a worse place because YOU are NOT there using the gifts God gave you?
God bless you :-))
Keep the dream silent?
Or share it?
Have you shared it publicly since you posted this?
Do you intend to?
If yes, when? Where?
the father does't see mankind, as we see mankind. the father only see mankind as complete in his son.
the son is bring this truth to mankind.
Lucifer (now named Satan). He coveted Gods throne and the worship from the angels of heaven. Michael, the archangel threw Satan to earth as God ordered. There are scriptures to prove this. Just learn to use the search engine on this website. Search the names.
Gabriel is Gods messenger archangel. He had conversations with Virgin Mary, Daniel, and the one you found. He stands before Gods throne ready to convey Gods messages.
Ephesians 6, speaks of principalities and powers, that are Satan's servants. It's their work to persecute Gods children by preventing them to receive the salvation of Jesus.
In the book of Revelation, there will be a final battle for earth and to finally have Satan and his servants locked up.
This is why we preach and teach on this website. To answer questions and to get people ready to go with Jesus. Matthew 24 and Luke 21, tells us that time is very short now.
By giving his life for us 'humans' on the Cross, Jesus secured our freedom from sin and Death. He wants us to live with Him forever. Everyone has to make a choice. Book of Romans. John the beloved wrote the book of Revelation, while incarcerated on the island of Patmos. He saw what was to happen, in visions from God. Daniel saw them also. The end was spoken of in
2 Peter 3. Not water as with Noah; but with fire.
That's why there is an urgency to preach and get those who desire to follow God, ready to go.
The Book of John 3, will help you be born again.
We will be changed one day into eternal bodies like Jesus. God is going to renew the earth to His original intent. Beautiful without pollution, scars man made on it; animals restored that were made extinct by humans. We will wait in heaven when that occurs.
I hope this helps you to choose to follow Jesus.
Pray in your own words. Your name will be in the Book of Life ( Revelation 22).

The amount of prayer for decernment and strength over these words makes me feel at times ,well most times obsessed and sometimes very uncomfortable if that makes any sense , at times I'm an anointed by some readings or some conversation . And it is so so glorious and comforting,however it's very short-lived and yet to always see myself falling backwards into some of the same old thought processes . I am a construction worker so please bare with me as i am no the most tech savvy but i would really appreciate any and all feedback regarding the topics i have mentioned , i am currently inspired for the day while my cup has something in it to fuel me , thanks to all who i mentioned and made this a good day for me .
You and Brother ChrisE compare a disabled person to a thief, when there is no viable comparison.
A disabled person DID NOT choose to be disabled.
A thief DID CHOOSE to steal, breaking God's commandments. Crystal clear difference!
Christians have heard Jesus Christ's Gospel. We have a CHOICE - hear and followor IGNORE and not follow.
2 Peter 2:21
"For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them."
True believers will listen to Jesus/God's WORD, and follow, if not, Jesus tells us how he will respond:
Matthew 7:21-23
21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
So, Jesus will not accept EVERY MAN,(OR WOMAN) only those that doeth the will of God. This comes directly from Jesus, if you don't believe it, then your argument is with Jesus/God!
God Bless.
son of Man must be (like Jonah in the fish) three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Was Friday just a tradition? or did He actually die on Thursday?
