    You got to make up your mind to give God some time.

    And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Joshua 24:15

    I would live in a community of abaptists. I'd build an A-frame by a fresh water lake called Duncan.

    Sounds like anabaptists live a pure life.

    You never hear of rough and tumble anabaptists up on charges.

    Do they have anaprotestant cause everyone should be so fortunate.

    I grew up baptist.

    Ron,

    One more point about the 6th trumpet which makes your notion not worth pursuing. When the devil is kicked out of heaven to earth, war starts immediately. Why? Because the devil only has a short time, 42 months, he placed the abomination the makes desolate, subdues his enemies to rule the world. Our leaders on earth will have planned this battle out, they will be ready to oblige the devil upon his arrival. Better run through the jungle, and don't look back to see.

    Ron,

    I'm not laughing at you, but it's so darn funny. The length you went to to let me know you were quoting the 2nd woe is past. You were reading the post 2nd woe. You got ahead of yourself, buddy. This is all so woeful.

    As a credit to you and your brand of Christianity, you were very easy on me. That last part is priceless about 'hard to grasp', I mean you could have come down on me like a....oh, the 2nd woe. Ah haha. Sorry.

    Where ever you go, may the spirit follow.

  • Hopr Creasman - In Reply on Psalms 46 - 4 years ago
    This is my first night of using this site. I am reading in Psalm 46. I just feel that the first verse is one of the most important verses to us as Christians. " God is our refuge and strength". Because when we have trouble in our lives, we all need someone to turn to and it says right here that God is our refuge, not for a brief moment , but always. If we feel unsure of what to do or where to go , we should think of God immediately. Talk to him in prayer, tell him what is scaring you and why you need him. He is our strength. We may feel unable to deal with our problem, but in this verse he is telling us , he is our strength. He will be there with us through all problems and he will enable us to face this problem as his strength is our strength. He will make us strong enough to face whatever we feel challenged by. He had our backs if we believe in him . So when we are afraid and don't know where to turn, our first thought should be turn to the Lord. If that is by prayer, our minister, our Bible, a church member, anything that is Christ related then how to that refuge and draw God's strength into our soul and deal with the problem. Thank you Lord for always being there for us.

    Ron,

    "the 6th trumpet the 2nd woe. If we read Revelation 11 and Revelation 12 it was the third woe the final woe"

    You misspoke. The 7th trumpet is the 3rd woe.

    I must say this is a defining moment. You almost had me...



    Revelation 12:12 will just have to wait a little season. Rev 12:12 will be given robes like their fellow servants.

    God Bless America
  • Darren Croft - In Reply on Psalms 138 - 4 years ago
    Missiles targeting N. America, Europe/allies will initiate the 6th trumpet (war) on earth. The allegories and metaphorical language describe what happens; the verses I gave you stem from the 6th trumpet, the closest scriptures to it.

    I don't need to know the precise details about the devil being booted out of heaven when there's 16+ prophets in my head. I have a plethora of Biblical resources available that afford me resolve. I am satisfied knowing the the day of the Lord starts at the 6th trumpet, and anything beyond that is splitting hairs.

    I have a feeling Revelation 6:12 will trigger the invasion of Israel. The same earthquake spot from the crucification, and 70 AD Roman invasion. The 6th seal leads into the 7th trumpet. The timing will be impeccable.
  • Eric Lopez on Judges 21 - 4 years ago
    I'm confused. I thought Israelites were doing evil and God left them for their enemies. Now we have Israelites gathered to do good against Benjamin over unnamed Levite's lies about his concubine cut into pieces? The Bible is like a Quentin Tarantino film lol.

    Anthony,

    A dear friend of mine gave me a Bible years ago and on the inside cover he wrote "This book will keep you from your sin, or your sin will keep you from this book."

    It makes a lot of sense. What you're saying also makes sense. When we give in to our fleshly desires, we find ourselves distanced and not interested in the things of the Lord.

    I've learned over the years that we make decisions based on what we love the most. The Lord may be drawing us to study his word, but there's something else we want to do.

    We have to make the choice. Who or what do we love the most? One of the most profound things Jesus said is that if you want to be my disciple, you must deny yourself, take up your cross daily, and follow me.

    That word deny in the Greek text is the word ARNEOMAI, and it means to reject. We are to reject our fleshly desires and follow Christ.

    Again, we follow what we love the most at any given time. Do we really love the Lord when we say we do?

    Jesus gave us the command to follow Him. We have to decide. Are we going to follow, or are going to go our own way?

    I pray that the Lord will draw you to His word and give you the hunger that can only be satisfied by remaining in His word, and that through His word, you might grow in Christ abundantly!

    107 billion people have lived.

    1st resurrection consists of those souls that "died in Christ".

    2nd resurrection after the 1,000 years is for everyone else.
  • Darren Croft - In Reply on Revelation 18 - 4 years ago
    Where did you go? I want to hear about your silent trumpets. When will they sound, and will they sound off all at once?
  • Francesco on Matthew 5:18 - 4 years ago
    The Law is the power of sin. Sin is transgressing(change the seat/order) of the law through actions. Not one Jot or title of the power of sin will change until the harvest(Judgement Day).

    Sin takes hold when we disobey the Most High, the fruit of Knowledge of good and evil contains the knowledge of the power of sin. Sin hurts us. In order to act on it we must change the order of the Law that says man is safe from sin. Instead we are placing an order that makes us vulnerable to the power of sin. Committing sin lets sin take power over us and we are not capable of controlling the sin on our own.

    God Bless. May you continue to grow in goodness and mercy.
  • Darren Croft - In Reply on Revelation 18 - 4 years ago
    Anabaptists give me an anaphylactic reaction. Haha.

    I gage the content of a post by how much research needs to be done in order to qualify an answer.

    Keep the new stuff coming.

    what are the lessons to learn from the book of ruth
  • Anthony on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    How can you make Bible reading a habit? I think a sinful habit I'm repeating daily is making me deel guilty and I try to avoid God.
  • Carleton on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    Many conversion experiences begin at Calvary. Mine did. Jesus died carrying my sins to death on the Cross. God turned away from the Sin (my sin) until His Lamb's sacrifice was complete. For a while it was dark and hopeless, but the work of my repentance and restoration was complete. Jesus went into rest, into His Sabbath and in my converted new born heart, I with Him. On the following day, He arose from the dead, laid aside his napkin and went to meet His brethren, my brethren in Christ, and I in my converted new born heart followed Him to where the brethren meet.

    :)
  • Darren Croft - In Reply on Revelation 18 - 4 years ago
    You have a broken heart? Who could be so unkind? Can you hear your heart in you ears? I hope you find relief, the human condition is wanting without divine intervention.

    God will make you strong in times of need. The non-believers in your family don't know God's love. They must see you are a beacon of light, beaming in their darkness. If you feel satisfied in the measures you taken to expose them to God, your job is done. There is no burden on you to remove their burden. Enjoy their company while you can. This world's not for living it's for fighting and for wars, no matter what the circumstance, hold on to what is yours.

    Zachariah 14:12 shows the supernatural power of Jesus when he consumes the beast army at his coming. The Kidron valley filled to the horses bridal with blood.

    I am fighting stage 4 breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. The cancer cannot be cured but treated. Please pray that God will continue his healing in me and help me to bear the pain that comes with the illness. I am off chemo and my weekly visit is now monthly. Please pray for the people in my life who have helped me physically, emotionally and spiritually. Thank you and may God bless you.

    Who do we pray to, Heavenly Father or Jesus our Lord?
  • Ty on Psalms 2 - 4 years ago
    Please pray fervently for me that the Lord Jesus Christ's Father (the Almighty GOD) would reveal to me now, where I may go for housing that He (GOD) will NOT allow me to be stopped from working (to earn my bread, to learn how to be pleasing to GOD at all times and in all circumstances, to acquire knowledge and skills to improve my ability to earn my bread, and to improve my usability in GOD's kingdom's work, and to improve my health through exercise, etc.).

    PLEASE pray for me as you would for yourself and/or whomever you love (or have loved) the most in this world Thank you.
  • Carleton - In Reply on Daniel 3:23 - 4 years ago
    Hi, perhaps you were looking for the connection of Daniel and the ones in the fiery furnace. Daniel at one point purposed in his heart not to eat of the King's meat, the three in Daniel Chapter 3 were not part of the dream that Daniel revealed to the King which caused Daniel's separation by promotion from his friends who also did not eat of the King's meat. These friends faced their own purpose in God and were found faithful and protected by the one who appeared in likeness as the Son of God to the King. The King then, like Daniel promoted these men to greater responsibilities in his kingdom and honored the majesty of the Living God in these four friends.

    Eating if the King's meat is a temptation offered by the world to be strong when it actually makes a Christian more pale.
  • Sandra Stewart on Daniel 1 - 4 years ago
    I find that before I open the Bible to read I say a prayer. I ask God for understanding and to open my 'mind eyes' to see and understand the things the 'naked eyes' are unable to see. I pray for direction and an enhancement to my understanding of the word of God. Alleluia!!! God answers prayers.

    Pray for James, a Drilling Engineer, that he will be able to finish his contract soon and return home safely and also pay back his girlfriend over $11,000 for helping him.
  • Darren Croft - In Reply on Ecclesiasticus 38 - 4 years ago
    God gave you the gift of enjoying the bible, the passion. You will find the more you read, the more you'll understand, the better God will form the words in your mouth to share with others. Reading the story of the Bible will lighten your days.
  • Darren Croft - In Reply on Revelation 11:4 - 4 years ago
    The 2 olive trees and 2 candlesticks are the 2 houses of Israel (Israel and Judah) that stand before God. These are the witnesses, the elect, the 144,000 sealed 42 months from death prior to the 6th trumpet.

    These witnesses are also depicted in allegory as the woman in Chapter 12 that hides in the wilderness from the dragon. The woman has God's protection, exactly like the 2 witnesses/144,000. They are one in the same. vs 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

    That is a very good catch, Debra. Advanced thinking. Way to put the clews together.
  • Stewart - In Reply on Romans 14 - 4 years ago
    That is confusing. I'm new.

    I and I's is logical.

    Thank you

    Bless you!
