  • Louise Hector on Psalms 66:3 - 4 years ago
    God is not racist, It's not possible for God to be racist, satan is a lier and the father of lie. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth, and he God say come let us make man in our image and our likeness. So we human come from one race and that's the human race. The team that is in the old testament is the same team that is in the new testament. Breaking down, How can two walk if they're not in agreement. Light and darkness. The talk in the old testament is about nations, and these nations. And for somebody who called themselves a spiritual leader, who decided that this is about the color of your skin like he gave himself the color of his or her own skin or likewise the other person. It's satanic, and not pleasing God. God love his creation that all we as believers need to know. For God so loved....... John 3.:16. It's so sading when when racism is displayed in church, where you going, not heaven. Please strive to make it to heaven. God bless you all. Remember Moses married an Ethiopian woman, Joseph married an Egyptian. So racism was never a part of God kingdom. God bless you all again. God bless you all.

    There are times where it's appropriate to ignore the fool (v4) and times to expose the fool (v5). God bless.

    I need verses on cutting yourself & anxiety. My granddaughter is going through some tough times.
  • Carleton - In Reply on Proverbs 26 - 4 years ago
    Good morning all, God Bless our hearts today in inspiration and conviction. Tomorrow here, my two older children will have a nice group of of their peer brothers and sisters over in the early evening (mom and dad are hoping outside). These young people love each other in a special way because they all know Jesus. Hope another day of discussion goes well.

    Thank you.
  • Lizbeth - In Reply on Mark 3 - 4 years ago
    Jesse, I truly believe the same thing about the Church not being mentioned in Revelation. Not one chapter in Revelation is given to the Rapture and I can't think that God would let his church be subjected to that kind of horrible destruction the Earth will see. In 1 Thessalonians chapter 5 verse 9 it states "For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ". Thank you for your reply. I feel comforted by it.

  • Mordine Beers on 1 Chronicles 24 - 4 years ago
    I was reading Corinithians 1 verse 40& 41 I was interested in the new reports of aliens and the Space sightings of strange ships, and if it here in these verses explain the differences in stars in the heavens and if there may be different bodies we don't know about?
  • Chris - In Reply on Proverbs 26 - 4 years ago
    I agree, these verses seem to negate each other & the more studious types have not been able to come to agreement on their meaning.

    I can only understand verse 4 to mean: whatever answer or explanation one tries to give one who is irrational, unreasonable, imbecilic, & other choice adjectives, can only mean that one will descend into the same state of a never-ending argument that will not profit the foolish enquirer & bring on greater despair to the responder.

    Yet, verse 5 could mean: rather than trying to explain the matter rationally with an irrational person, one could answer him directly & sternly to expose his folly so that the forceful word might just alert him to his pitiful condition & mental deficiency which might cause him to take the strong word to heart.

    In other words, the 'foolish' person might have more chance of responding to a direct command or warning than to listening to a well prepared explanation, which would do him no good.
  • Robert - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    You will need to view Creation and its details from a Hebraic (or "Ancient Ee") perspective as many of the scientific truths get lost in foreign thought (i.e. Westernized). For example, the true Hebrews (Ee peoples -many of which currently dwell in West Africa and their Bantu diaspora in South Africa) show evidence of a "flat earth" and closed "dome" system design to the world. Writers like Albert B. Ellis unwittingly showed that this belief was held among the Ee peoples when he studied them during the late 19th century. See the first page of Chapter 3 of his book titled "The Ewe Speaking People's of the Slave Coast of West Africa." Although the Ee had fallen into idolatry (as prophesied would happen to this chosen people- Deut 32:16-17) long before A.B. Ellis' exposure to their culture, some core Torah (Mosaic) based beliefs and customs were certainly apparent among them. In short, the original cultural perspective of truth sheds a critical light on Scriptural science so that it may be distinguished from unfounded secular pseudo-scientific beliefs. All knowledge has a context. Scriptural Science has a cultural-spiritual context which must be considered.
  • Richard in Christ - In Reply on Mark 3 - 4 years ago
    Thank you for that correction as only half of that statement I made was accurate. They did "speak with tongues, and magnify God" as in Acts 10:46. Although the Holy Ghost fell on them who heard the word. Acts 10:44. Before they were baptized with water, not after, as I stated. For it is not water baptism, by men, that people receive the Holy Ghost. It is a spiritual baptism of the Lord.

    Although I myself cannot be sure but it wouldn't surprise me that I'm not the only child of God you have rejected. Only God knows.

    Thank you for your time.

    God Bless you.
  • Jesse - In Reply on Mark 3 - 4 years ago
    Hello Liz,

    I share your view on the timing of the rapture. 1 Thessalonians Chapter 4 tells us there will be a rapture, so we know that. If you've read through the events in the book Revelation, where God's wrath is being poured out on a non-believing world, you can see what a horrible time that will be.

    It doesn't matter how many times you read through those chapters which detail God's Judgment and wrath being poured out, but you will not find any mention of the church during that time.

    I lean towards a pre-tribulation Rapture because I don't believe God is going to pour out His judgment on us. If you take a look at 1 Thessalonians 5:9, ask yourself who the "us" is speaking of. We know what wrath is. But has God appointed, or set aside a time for us to go through His wrath?

    Reading through Revelation, you have to wonder how anyone would survive. Some questions I would ask are: where is the church mentioned during this time? If we are going to go through the 7-year Tribulation Period, what would our function be? It wouldn't be to preach the gospel to those who are about to be judged so harshly for their unbelief.

    God does not need us here during that time. He already has a plan to reach people before it's too late. The bible tells us that there will be two witnesses that will be preaching the gospel. There will be 144,000 Jews whom God will seal so that they cannot be harmed. They also will be warning people. And if that's not enough, it says that there will be an angel flying around mid-heaven for 3-1/2 years warning people.

    So you see, there would be no need for us to be here during that horrible time when God pours His wrath out on this world. God has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ.

    Again, there is no mention of the church during the time that God's wrath is being poured out. The next time I see mention of the church is when Christ comes back at His second coming, and we come back with Him!
  • Richard in Christ - In Reply on Titus 3 - 4 years ago
    Interesting. So after 60 years of "intense" study of the Bible that is all you can say to me? I must state again. You proclaim there is no unforgivable sin(blasphemy of the Holy Ghost) though Jesus Christ says there is. ( 2 Peter 20-21.

    With your one statement of "God shall never allow His Son to be crucified afresh". You mean like Hebrews 9:24-26. Yes I understand that. This does not give us free will to go about sinning in this world. Like stated in Hebrews 10:26-29 which I left for you in the previous post. Which would just be putting His blood to shame as stated. Sounding to be of the unforgivable sin which only the Lord shall judge. Of coarse we can make mistakes and we will always have forgiveness if we are true to humble ourselves before the Lord. Confess our sins, or mistakes, and strive to repent of them. To live for the Will of God not our own will. James 4:7-8

    Seeing no real response to my couple questions which is ok. Back to the original question which is what led me to post to you in the first place. The Holy Ghost and the Holy Spirit being different. Which again I say is false. Giving you detailed information of the original Greek texts which predates the English translation of the Scriptures.

    As you have veered to reply to this information several times I do not expect a reply from you.

    Thank you for all your time.

    God Bless.
  • Ken on Matthew 2 - 4 years ago
    Matthew 2:4

    KJV 1611 reads "where Christ" referring to Herod asking where the Christ is to be born. The Greek reads

    "where the Christ" with the definite article. Christ was not Jesus's surname. The NKJV has the definite article, having corrected this error in the KJV.
  • OnlytruthintheworldKJV - In Reply on Mark 3 - 4 years ago
    Greetings in Jesus' name, Ron,

    So Jesus came to confirm the covenant for one week, but in the midst of the week he was cut off (3.5 yrs into His ministry) but not for himself (for His Bride, and the Virgins and Guests).

    So there remains 3.5 years left of that 70th week which is the great tribulation. This is referenced and lines up with scripture in the Revelation (a time, times & half a time, or 1260 days).

    Not quite sure how you think that the 70th week ended in Acts 10 as there is no reference of time between the day of Pentecost (when the New Testament/ Covenant began) and Acts 10..? (Atleast that I can see).

    I hope this helps.

    Be well, sir,

    Andrew
  • OnlytruthintheworldKJV - In Reply on Mark 3 - 4 years ago
    Very well, Richard,

    I have given you two admonitions and now I must reject you as per Paul's instructions to Titus.

    Concerning the verse you claim is evidence someone received the gift of the Holy Ghost without speaking in tongues in Acts 11, however, I must offer this correction so as others are not deceived.

    This is Peter relaying to some of the circumcision (Jews) what had just taken place in Acts 10 when the Holy Ghost fell upon Cornelius (an Italian man) and his friends, and they spoke with other tongues and magnified God (as on the 120 at the beginning -verse 15).

    As a priest of my masterJesus Christ I must rightly divide the word, and give reproof, instruction and correction. in righteousness. That we all might come into the unity of the faith.

    It's between you and the Lord now, Richard.

    Be well my friend
  • Susan - In Reply on Psalms 23 - 4 years ago
    Ron,

    Thank you for your reply. I have another question and this is in reference of Romans 8:26-27.

    Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.

    I knew there were verses that explain how we don't always know what or how to pray or what to pray for or sometimes not knowing how to pray. People know a lot of words but sometimes there are no words.

    God seen to this with the Holy Spirit. The spirit prays for us in its own special code we don't understand but God does.

    Aint that Amazing?

    We must always pray without ceasing but know our Holy Spirit is also speaking to God for us as well.

    What a comforting feeling!!
  • Carleton - In Reply on Mark 3 - 4 years ago
    Dear Chris and friends, God allowed time to continue while many sincere, innocent, defenseless, born again Christians were buried alive or had scolding oil poured over their heads and worse. It wasn't a judgement by God but a witness of the love of God and the power of believers to withstand cruelty by forgiveness by faith in Jesus Christ while speaking and living the truth without fear. This period of time not so long ago helped establish the times where enough freedom outside of forced baptism existed that the Gospel of Jesus Christ could be spread throughout the whole world. For these believers this was a great tribulation in this time.

    That you know, in love, I remain teachable.

  • Richard in Christ - In Reply on Acts 2:18 - 4 years ago
    Revelation 2:11-16 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.

    And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges;

    I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

    But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.

    So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.

    Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.

    Revelation 2:18-23 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;

    I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.

    Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

    And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.

    Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.

    And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
  • Richard in Christ - In Reply on Mark 3 - 4 years ago
    Hello Andrew,

    Thank you for conversing with me on these couple subjects. Please let this be the end of our discussion with all respect.

    About The Word of God not being Jesus Christ is your own belief. It is not from the pits of hell. Hebrews 1:1-4, Revelation 1:17-18, Revelation 2:26-27, Revelation 3:20-21, Revelation 19:11-16. We are to honor the Son the same way we honor the Father, John 5:21-23. The Messiah/Christ being the anointed one of God. ( 1 John 2:23-24.

    Just to straighten up a little with reply about receiving the Holy Ghost. I never said my experience, or experiences, was "feeling peace". Me stating most people in the world would not believe my experiences is because they are supernatural things. It was not me who chose God, He chose me. I know not why. All glory be to Jesus Christ our Lord and our Father in Heaven.

    I don't know of any Scripture of people receiving the Holy Ghost just by "feeling peace". Although I do know of one that doesn't state it was after a water baptism nor did they speak in tongues. Acts 11:11-18.

    I hope our discussion shall keep you from discrediting other believers in the Lord just because they don't speak in unknown tongues. We should all try to help one another with our faith in the Lord. Hebrews 13:1-2.

    Peace be with you.

  • Ron - In Reply on Mark 3 - 4 years ago
    OnlytruthintheworldKJV, I do not understand the latter part of your post maybe that's me. My post was on the 7-year rapture theory using the last week of the 70th-week prophecy to create 7 years. My meaning was no part of that prophecy should be combined with Revelation. There is a lot that was fulfilled during those 70 weeks. More than can be covered in a small post. As far as the temple I have not found any scriptures that say there will be another before Jesus sets his kingdom upon the earth but there could be. If you read ( Revelation 21:22) The holy city, New Jerusalem there is no temple.

    Jesus was sent only for the lost sheep of Israel and Jesus commanded his disciple to only go to the lost sheep and not to go unto the Gentiles.

    Matthew 15:24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

    Matthew 10:5-7 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

    They did not until Peters dream and Jesus appeared to Paul, around the same time Stephen was killed. That ended the 70th-week. If you read ( Matthew 23:31-38) it shows who made it desolate and the temple was destroyed 30+ years later in their generation, by the people of the prince, Rome. When Jesus was talking to the woman at the well he talks about this happening. ( John 4:21-24).

    God bless, Ron
