    God will work against those that don't honor him.



    love your weaknesses like Paul. if Satan is telling you of your lack then you know he is covering up the greater thing that you posses so you'll lose it.

    godliness with contentment is great gain.

    bow your heart to your king.

  • Richard in Christ on Psalms 91 - 4 years ago
    Hello all,

    I just thought I would state this detail of a verse that came to light.

    In Colossians 1:19. For it pleased the Father that in Him should all fulness dwell;

    As this is after speaking of Jesus Christ being the image of the invisible God and by Him and for Him were all things created. You may note that "the Father" is in italics in verse 19. Because in the Textus Receptus it is not there. It would actually read something like "for in Him it was pleasing that all the fullness dwelt".

    Jesus Christ is more than a man and He existed before He was born. He was in on Creation. I can't understand how some would state that all the Words in His mouth were of His Father. Of coarse I understand the Father is in Him and giving Him all His Words to speak. Though you can easily see Jesus Christ is His own person with His own soul. Speaking to and of the Father constantly. Jesus Christ is most definitely ONE with the Father and just as much God though the Son. He is at the right Hand of God. A couple more verses stating He existed before He was born: John 3:12-13, John 6:38, John 5:45-47, John 6:62, John 8:58.

    Maybe just to bring up the Angel of the LORD in the OT. Just one instance is Exodus 23:21. Not just a regular angel or even an archangel. How in Joshua 5:13-15. Where a Host of YHWH tells Joshua to take his shoes off for he is on Holy ground. As in Exodus 3:1-6. Again said to be an Angel of the LORD which is then stated as YHWH. God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Where Moses is told to take His shoes off. I would think because where YHWH is, is Holy ground.

    I believe the Angel of the Lord in the OT is the pre incarnate Jesus Christ. Could I be wrong? Yes. As I have many other things to prove YHWH is not just one as normal people may perceive. Almighty God is ONE period.

    I really don't know why people are trying to attack the deity of Christ. One day we will all have to stand before Him.

    God Bless.

  • Simon - In Reply on Jeremiah 29 - 4 years ago
    Sacha,

    Everyone dislikes theirpredicaments, the constant competition. We've been on trial our whole lives.

    Whatever the jam, it doesn'tmatter to Jesus, except believing He was the son of God who died on the cross for yoursins, and perhaps Matthew 22:36-40, the 2 highest commandments tolive by.

    All along the trail people will nick your gelt, half inch you, surpriseyou with a short sharp shock. Always wear the armour. Show me a saint with an internet connection, and I'll show you a sinner with dereliction.

    Jesus searches theheart to identify family members, He won't have any trouble findingyou.

    Father God I am saying for prayers to take away the pain in my heart for my mother who has never been a mother to me. Now that we are older we both need to ask for forgiveness on both our behalf because of our behavior. I love you Lord.. Thank you Lord for always loving me and saving me from myself. In Jesus name.. Amen and Amen again
  • Chris - In Reply on Deuteronomy 18:18 - 4 years ago
    James. Indeed, "God (the Word) was in Christ" - none can doubt that Truth, as Jesus only spoke what was given to Him of the Father. And yes, "God put his words in the mouth of his Son". John 12:49,50: "For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak. And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak." Also John 8:28, etc.

    Therefore, there can be no argument on that score as Jesus spoke those words as the Son of God. But the question remains: where was Jesus before His appearance on the Earth, coming as a Babe, born of a woman? And this is the difficulty with many: how can this human Jesus have a pre-existence? How can God's spoken Word even be made into flesh? And then we could & should also ask: How can God send out His Spirit to accomplish His Will on Earth if God is One, not two, three or more? It seems reasonable to understand that if God can issue out His Spirit (from within Himself) to do a Work, so can He issue out His Word (from within Himself) to bring it to His people. This He did through the prophets of old, but "Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds" ( Heb 11:2).

    Leaving aside John 1, Heb 11:2 tells us that God's Son brought God's Word & this Son is heir of all things & through WHOM God created the worlds. This is written plainly: that God's Word was made flesh to bring God's Word (and we know why He had to be man). Is it because you cannot envisage that a Word from God can be given flesh? Is not "God able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham?" Are Jesus' Words, "Before Abraham was, I am", have any significance to the pre-incarnate Jesus Christ? Let us not limit the Power of God by our weak human understanding & perceptions. I would be interested in how you would interpret these Scriptures.
  • Adam - In Reply on Acts 2:45 - 4 years ago
    If you want a small Bible (the book) you can find them at Dollar Tree for $1. It's likely you can find them at 2nd hand stores for less, or free through churches or various charities if the need is genuine.
  • Adam - In Reply on Matthew 16:18 - 4 years ago
    Amen. In Christianity I hear a lot about how God is a friend, like a buddy you can talk to or just hang out with, or like a psychologist who just listens to you all day, or like a genie in a lamp who is there to bless your life, to fix all your problems, and serve you. I personally don't believe it. I think if that were true Jesus would have said so, but instead we have Jesus warning his followers (Christians) over and over to obey His commandments and to fear God. Matthew 10:28

    Fear is the opposite of love as the Bible says and we shall not be in bondage with fear ( Romans 8:15), but it definitely says to fear God, which I think includes a very high level of respect to Him. I think a portion of Christians don't respect God or fear Him like the Bible says and instead I actually hear them use God's name in vain, and just say petty things to God, act demanding, and throw a tantrum when they doen't get their way. But God doesn't exist to serve them, but the opposite.

  • God39s miracles on James 2 - 4 years ago
    Hello God bless you all. I just want to ask is Ecclesiastes 4:14 taking about Jesus; If it is talking about Jesus it is amazing how the bible teases the coming of Jesus. Thank you.

    14. For out of prison he cometh to reign; whereas also he that is born in his kingdom becometh poor.

  • Rod - In Reply on Acts 2:45 - 4 years ago
    yes I agree great idea, a couple years ago as I was reading James chapter two this verse stuck out, and since then I've been handing out a bible with a gift certificate enough for a meal or two, to a local restaurant.

    James 2:16, "And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?"

  • Simon on John 3:13 - 4 years ago
    Unknown tongues vs Prophesy: which one is preferred?

    Those who receive the Holy Ghost do not normally speak in an unknown tongue, a tongue that only God understands. Unknown tongues yield little value on the spiritual spectrum. It's good between that person and God, but does nothing to enlighten others.

    ( 1 Corinthians 14:2-5;27,28)

    2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.

    3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.

    4 He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.

    5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.

    Unknown tongue restrictions:

    27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.

    28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.

    vs 5: I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied...

    ( Leviticus 19:28) Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.

    ( 1 Corinthians 6:20) For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
  • Carleton - In Reply on Matthew 16:18 - 4 years ago
    Hi Diana, I think it is a good practice for a Christian to keep their lives including their own body unmarked by the world and ready for God's grace in their lives.

    Galatians 6:17 is the Christian way.

  • Simon - In Reply on Luke 1 - 4 years ago
    Earl,

    There's a bit more detail that I didn't include, and figured you would appreciate it. In 1996, after 700 years in its possession, London sent the coronation stone back to Scotland, so effectively neither country sits on David's throne.

    ( Ezekiel 21:27) I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.

    In the move, David's throne was overturned three times, ending up in London. The phrase "and it (throne) shall be no more, until"..... Means until Jesus Christ comes, there will be no more throne, no forth overturn, limbo. The Bible continues to fit our current state of affairs, and conditions for Messiah's return.

    Is there scripture about getting a tattoo. Im a teenage girl. I love the Lord Jesus. I strongly believe the KJV Bible is the true word of God.
  • Giving To All Who Ask - In Reply on Acts 2:45 - 4 years ago
    Of course there is always Amazon or any Walmart. Open the Bible and see what version of Bible it is, before you buy it.

    Goodwill and Salvation Army stores have low cost Bibles. Be patient and the KJV Bible will be on a shelf next time you pass by. Many churches have Pew copies they can give you, if you have no money. Ask God to put one in your hand, and then see how Faithful and True he is.

    This is a call to some of us here, to carry an extra Bible in our car, or backpacks.

    For people in need of a Bible, or a Bible in the language of your country:

    Call. 1-800-700-7000

    I give, so that all those in need can get a Bible, and in their language. May God bless you for the hunger in your heart and soul.

    Mishael
  • Simon - In Reply on Luke 1 - 4 years ago
    Earl,

    This prophesy describes Jeremiah's commission, along with Baruch, to move and replant David's throne, along with the ark of the covenant, prior to Nebuchadnezzar's destruction of the temple in Jerusalem. Look at the last two commands of Jeremiah 1:10: "to build, and to plant". Jeremiah replanted David's throne according to God's declaration that David would 'never lack a man sitting on his throne'. Christ has an active, earthly throne to return to; the queen of England sits on David's throne.

    ( Isaiah 49:1,3) God calls Israel (house) "O isles" his servant in whom God will glorify.

    ( Psalm 89:25)

    ( 1 Kings 8:25)

    ( Jeremiah 33:17)

    Jeremiah also played royal matchmaker in Egypt by taking a "low" couple with him to assume the throne. He took a 'tender branch' (daughter) of the kings to heal the Zarah-Pharez breach. ( Isaiah 37:32,31)

    All the kings of the British isles have been coronated on "Jacob's stone", care of Jeremiah, seated beneath the throne. See the pictures. Jeremiah took it from Jerusalem to Ireland, to Scotland, an onward to its current resting place in London, England. It was overturned 3 times along the way, and when the time comes, will be taken by Christ back to Jerusalem.
