Pray for her and family....
From Noah & his sons, all the Earth was repopulated after the Flood, which wiped out everyone. Even though most of those names might not mean much to us, it was important to Israel in understanding their roots & to historians who would be able to follow the generations which came from those names.
Yet we also need to bear in mind Genesis 25:21-23. Here, we see that Rebekah enquired of the Lord about the "struggle she was experiencing in her womb". And the Lord spoke about the twins there & how the elder twin would one day serve the younger. It seems that Isaac wasn't aware of this Word from God, or else he, in his old age, had forgotten about it ( Genesis 27:33-37). And of course, Rebekah herself was right in the middle of this debacle & was equally guilty. So none of them are innocent in all this & yet God used the weaknesses of people (their fleshly desires & schemes) to fulfil His Purposes. Maybe, churches & Sunday Schools need to relate the complete story & learn from the mistakes of others & of course, the sovereignty of God.
I am sorry to hear about the deaths in your family going on. As it is a part of life and I so understand wanting others you care about to be saved, and with the Lord, though they have their own beliefs.
I just as you, and I'm sure all others in Christ, yearn for the day that we will be with the Lord in glory where He is in His Kingdom.
This will be my last post to you as I did not wish to make you angry or drive you away. You have just as much right to post here as I do. As I stated I did not want you to take my post harshly as it seems you did. I am sorry you took it that way.
You stating "you guys" but please only keep this between you and me. Maybe you are perceiving me and Carleton as "you guys" because we both asked you a similar question?
Like I stated truthfully. I am not one to sharpen your iron on this topic of Genesis. I stated where my focus is.
Please feel free to keep posting and maybe someone else can help you.
Again I apologize.
God Bless.
For our meditation by His love.
Thank you very much for your reply. I very much enjoyed reading of the things about the vision of another brother about a year ago. That is also amazing how your wife came home today with that book and the title is close to what I stated in that "the Lord is closer than we may think". The Lord is so perfect!
I usually don't post things about my personal experiences with the Lord. Though today as I was getting a bit emotional while praying I heard that He wanted me to share that with you all.
As none of us know exactly what is to happen and when. We must make sure we are ready for the Lord to come at any time. As we are taught in Matthew 24:42-44. I know a lot of people are waiting for a "rapture" which may happen and of coarse is the best thing for us with the Lord. Though I really don't see it being that easy for us.
Like said no matter what happens have no fear. We must endure till the end no matter what. Glory and honor to our Father in Heaven through Jesus Christ our Lord.
God Bless you my brother.
Enough said.
God bless our meditations.
I also battle with idolatry, especially the temptation to overindulge in video games - by God's grace, I've stayed away from video games for over a year and a half (praise God), but the temptation to play a "little" is there, which almost always has turned into overindulgence and idolatry - and the temptation seems to be growing more and more. I think if the Lord gave me clarity, to see things the way He wants me to, and to love the things He loves, and hate the things He hates, it would greatly help.
I see I pick the wrong place for this discussion. Because you guys see you might be wrong about this, you change the premise to: What does this have to do with Jesus? So now it's no longer a iron sharpens iron discussion. Sorry I wasted your time and mine.
Admin, you can block me now. I do not wish to get anymore e-mails on this.
