  • S Spencer - In Reply on Matthew 20 - 4 years ago
    This is a repost to the 2 links that I pasted, Something went terribly wrong!!

    Isaiah 32:12-13. They shall lament for the teats, for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.

    Upon the land of my people shall come up thorns and briers; yea, upon all the houses of joy in the joyous city:

    "PARRELLELS WITH HEBREWS 6:8".

    HERE'S THE 2ND

    1 Corinthians 3:12-15 (KJV) Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

    Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.

    If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

    If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

    You did not read or understand the text .

    Verse v29 " The Lord our God is one Lord "

    Notice the word "our" glad to be of service . He did not say I'm God . That would be opposite.

    I don't know where you got that but it is false. Matthew 36:-40.
  • Richard in Christ - In Reply on John 2 - 4 years ago
    Hi brother Earl,

    To your three questions.

    1) Yes. We who are in Christ have been Blessed with the Holy Spirit. After we have been purged from the things of this world through repentance and being taught by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God. We are counted worthy to judge as we are Spiritual and not carnal anymore. Though no man can judge us. 1 Corinthians 2:14-16.

    I will add this. In the next verse 1 Corinthians 6:3 where it states "we shall judge angels". It does not say this in the Greek. Going over the Textus Receptus that verse actually comes out to "Know not that angels judge truly things that pertain to this life".

    2) Yes. Though we who are in Christ are worthy to judge the things in this world when we become Holy. I do not believe this is the same as the Judgement each of us receive after our physical life ends and we are to stand before God or Christ. Only God can Judge each and every single person because He knows everything about everyone. Knowing what is truly in every single persons heart. As I stated in a previous post I can never say anyone is going to be saved or not. As brother Chris stated "salvation is of the Lord". Then as the verse right after the one you posted states how the righteous shall scarcely be saved. 1 Peter 4:18. Not that all shall be saved.

    3) So as I believe God is the only true Judge. As Christ is also on His throne. God's Judgement is of righteousness. Having many synonyms. As our Saviour is Jesus Christ being the only way to the Father. In that we have all fallen short of the Glory of God in our lives. Why God had to send us His Son to be the Perfect sacrifice to pay for our sins once and for all. Not meaning it's ok to sin now. We have a perfect example to follow and that is our Lord. Who lived a perfect life and we should try our best to follow in His footsteps.

    As we can plainly see in the world today not all are with God. Also the world is a lot worse than people can see in plain sight.
  • Earl Bowman - In Reply on John 2 - 4 years ago
    Brother Richard, May CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

    Do you believe the saints are going to judge the world?

    1 Corinthians 6:2

    Do you believe that judgement is upon the house of God now; and we are that house?

    1 Peter 4:17

    If you believe the saints are going to judge the world; what is the judgement of:

    Psalms 149:9
  • Christian on Matthew 16:18 - 4 years ago
    Peter is not the rock. The Revelation that Jesus Christ is the Son of the Living God IS the Rock. Jesus did NOT say "That thou art Peter, and upon thee I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it".

    Jesus said "That thou art Peter, and upon THIS ROCK I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it". The catholics have sadly missed it for more than 1700 years.

    "Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste."

    "Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder."

    With all due respect to catholics but the Precious Rock of christians is their Lord Jesus Christ but the rock of the catholics is the rotting carcass of Peter.

    Please pray for my mom Lorraine's salvation and pray for her healing. She lost her hearing, has memory loss, bad posture, body pain, and blood pressure issues. Pray for excellent health. Pray for a long life for Lorraine, in Jesus' name. Pray for the removal of debt regarding Lorraine, in Jesus' name. Pray Lorraine's possessions last a hundred times longer and become newer each day. Also, please pray for salvation and excellent health and long life for my uncle Seve and aunt Jackie
  • Jesse - In Reply on James 2 - 4 years ago
    James,

    Whatever your circumstance was that you were praying for when you reached out to the Lord in prayer, did you ask for His will to be done in that circumstance that you were praying for? God answers prayer according to His will. Prayer is when we take our petitions to the Lord and ask for His will to be done, not ours. If you ask according to His will, that prayer will always be answered. Sometimes we don't see anything happen, and sometimes our situation or circumstance might get worse, but God still answers all prayer if we ask according to His will.

    Sometimes our problem is not being able to accept the answer. We praise Him when our circumstances get better, but when we see no change or our circumstance gets worse, we tend to think that God did not hear our prayer, and subsequently we do not thank Him.

    Prayer is the means by which we express our total submission to God's will in whatever it is we are asking Him for. He answers those prayers. We just need to accept whatever the answer is and that the answer is His will!

  • Joan - In Reply on John 2 - 4 years ago
    I did have great convictions during those times of sinning. I was doing drugs, and smoking cigarettes. I was even attending church during those days. I was being and feeling hypocritical and I asked Jesus to forgive me and to come back into my heart. Was also baptized again. Yet not at that exact time did I stop the sinning. Although I felt great conviction from it all. God loves me sooo much he helped me as well as my husband by us going to jail. Getting probation and seeing we no longer wanted to live that sinful way. We stopped all drugs, stopped smoking cigarettes, and although I struggle with panic attacks when I drive I choose to start driving again without fear. My husband and I for the first time in months got to attend our Sons Church in Tulsa last Sunday. Our 8 yr old granddaughter was baptized. Praise the Lord! My husband has been having hesitation about going to the church we have here where we live. Satan has been attacking him. Please pray God will touch his heart, and open his eyes to what he is missing. He is saved. Pray for me as well as I choose to do all that the Lord has planned for me to do. I choose to live a life free of sin. I want to always honor God, and bring greater opportunities to help not only myself but, all others who don't know the Lord as their Savior. May God bless you for doing His will because you shared your message with me. I am truly blessed by it! Joan
  • Richard in Christ - In Reply on James 2 - 4 years ago
    Hello Isaiah,

    As I can only speak of myself and my experiences after the Lord coming to me. Maybe someone else will have a better reply than I can give on this.

    First off when we are saved, or receive the Holy Spirit, this does not mean everything is going to be easy. Especially at first. Again from my own experience right after coming to the Lord, satan began to tempt and trick me into thinking it was ok to keep sinning. Not ever hearing voices before I did not know it was satan. Numerous things were said to me that basically broke my heart as I was praying to God.

    What truly helped me to learn that what was being said to me was not from God was that I kept reading the Bible and was lead to answers that showed me this. The Holy Bible is truly our food and it is so vast that the Lord can lead you to many answers of questions. It truly is the living Word of God. So if something is in you telling you to read the Bible I would say definitely do it. Satan does not want us in the Bible because this is where we get our food from the Lord which makes us stronger Spiritually and brings us closer to the Lord.

    Now of coarse we are not saved by works and by the Grace of God through Jesus Christ. Though good works are what makes God happy and shows our faith and that we are saved. A new creature that lives for God being pleased to do good whenever possible. As in James 2:17. Read the whole book of James as it is not that long.

    Some people may think this is in contrary to what Paul wrote but it is not. We must read the Bible as a whole and not just cleave to one verse. As good works does not mean you have to go out and evangelize, or be a preacher, etc. Maybe read Galatians 5:22-23. Just being kind to someone, helping them, stay meek etc. What ever God puts in your path retain the Lord in your thinking and what would make Him happy.

    I hope that helps you a little. God Bless you on your journey.
  • Joan - In Reply on John 2 - 4 years ago
    Amen I completely agree! God Bless you for sharing this with me!
  • S Spencer - In Reply on 1 Peter 5 - 4 years ago
    Hi Carlos.

    I agree with what you have been told by others, especially prayer throughout your reading for understanding.

    And most important be sure you have gave your life to Christ. Wisdom and understanding is given by the Holyspirit.

    Here's a verse that may encourage you.

    James 1:5-8 (KJV) If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

    But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

    For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

    A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

    This is a great site to visit for help.

    God bless.

  • Isaiah on James 2 - 4 years ago
    How do I know if God wants me to do something or the devil is trying to decieve me. I being told by what I think is my own thoughts that I have to read a book in the bible so that God will want to hear what I ask in prayer and forgive me of my sins. I think that might go against Ephesians 2:8-9 but I'm not really sure.

  • Brother Dan - In Reply on Mark 12 - 4 years ago
    Freeman,

    I agree, the 1st, and 2nd commandments - are the greatest of all. Amen.

    As Christians we also can't ignore the other eight.

    John 14:21

    "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him."

  • Final Jacob and Esau Comment on Romans 13 - 4 years ago
    One last comment on Jacob and Esau:

    The bloodline of Jesus, came to Bethlehem through Jacob. Not Esau.

    Do you know that God is there when we were in the womb? I believe that Isaiah and Ezekiel were called to be prophets, in their mothers wombs.

    Genesis 1:1 shows that God is not constrained by the Creation of Time (in beginning...)

    He is the Alpha and the Omega: the beginning of time and, the End of Time.

    He's God. He sees everything. He does not violate our free will to choose what we do.
  • Prayer to return to First Love on Acts 1 - 4 years ago
    Revelation 2:4

    Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love (Jesus).

    It means return to your first love when you First met Jesus. Tell him you've grown cold. Tell him you've entertained other loves. Repent to your God for not loving him as he deserves. He stands ready to forgive and restore. Your High Priest will sympathize with you, therefore, "Let us come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need" ( Hebrews 4:16, KJV).

    Amazingly, God calls us to return to where we once fell. He does not call us to make up for lost time and be a mile ahead of where we used to be. He calls us back to that fresh fire of love towards him and neighbors. It is a call to action. It is a call to return to the habits of grace. It is a command to keep ourselves in the love of God ( Jude 21).
  • Jacob and Esau GENESIS 27 - In Reply on Genesis 27 - 4 years ago
    Read the whole chapter.

    Genesis 27:30

    And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.

    Genesis 27:35

    And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty (deception), and hath taken away thy blessing.

    Genesis 27:36

    And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, Hast thou not reserved a blessing for me?

    Genesis 27:38

    And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.

    Genesis 27:41

    And ESAU HATED Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I SLAY my brother Jacob.

    Comment by Mishael:

    Esau gave away his birthright for a bowl of stew.

    Just thinking about his stomach...also, it angered God that he did that.

    Rachel engineered the taking of the Blessing.

    Esau planned to murder Jacob. God saw that.

    Later, Esau left the family and married a non-Jewish woman and lived amongst her people.

    I read something earlier this year that indicated that his descendants still live outside of Israel. I have no opinion on that, even tho I read a ton of Google following his descendants.

    I do not know if modern American culture follows ancient customs of Israel. Perhaps in Jewish communities?

    I think that question is easier to answer when it concerns all women of the Bible

    To Google: Women in the King James Bible

    It makes for good reading
  • Mishael - In Reply on 1 Peter 5 - 4 years ago
    Pray to be filled with the Holy Spirit. When you study the Bible, always ask the Holy Spirit to Teach you what you are reading.

    Prayer Requests

    I received Jesus as Lord and Savior, at home.

    This is my comment: your beating heart is the Throne that was always meant to belong to the Lord, Jesus. Sometimes when our walk with him gets difficult, or we sin again,

    It's usually because we put ourselves back on that Throne for a moment or until we realize it. Ask for forgiveness and put Jesus back onto the throne of your heart. Read 1 John 1:9

    Start reading about who Jesus is, what he likes and dislikes; how he responded to questions people asked him, what he did, where he went; how and when he prayed, what he prayed for. He is how we are to conform our behaviors to, now.

    I think it is helpful to move next to: 1 John, 2 John and 3 John (near the back of the Bible) next.

    For wisdom: Proverbs

    For comfort & learn what God is like: Psalms

    It's helpful to read 2-3 chapters a day. It's easier to follow stories and movement that way.

    Learn how to use the SEARCH box on this website to access the search engine that will answer many of your questions and curiosity's.

    The Gospel, is the virgin birth of Jesus, his life, his death on the cross for our sins; and his resurrection from the grave.

    At Pentecost, Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to all believers, to be their Teacher, Comforter, convicted when we fall in a ditch, and many more things He helps us with.

    May the Lord guide you in your walk with him. Come back here often and we help all that we can.
