    Brother Bruce,

    AS BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN - you and I go through these process.

    First Step = Humbled self, confess & turn away from sin, accept Jesus as God and Savior;

    Second Step = Get baptized - water baptism similar to what Jesus went through by John the Baptist = you died to sins, is born again in Jesus' name;

    Third Step = our Lord Jesus baptized you with the Holy Spirit - Holy Spirit indwells or lives in your heart;

    Fourth Step = Holy Spirit guides, protects you from evil. God allows trials, all sorts of problems to test your faith in God. Why would God do this? To purify you - purge or cleanse your old sinful prideful selfish desires, self-will, so that God's Holy Spirit can merge with your spirit - to mold you in the image and likeness of our Lord Jesus.

    NOTE: Steps 1, 3 & 4 are ongoing process that every Christians must go through - if and when you repeatedly sin i.e. lie even white lies, and don't confess to God and repent, you grieve the Holy Spirit - some signs to remember - feeling guilty that you sin, feel like God is far not in you - the is the Holy Spirit guiding you, so you must listen and do what the Holy Spirit is teaching you. Please do not ignore this warnings from the Holy Spirit, if you ignore these, you become vulnerable target for Satan to steal you from God.

    Dear Heavenly Father, Please have mercy on my son Jared, heal his brain injury and restore his mind and allow him to heal to be moved out of ICU but guide his doctors with your wisdom to do the right thing for him. Please heal him from his addictions and grant him some peace of mind from the demons he has been plagued by for over twenty years. Lord, please restore our son, fill his heart with your love and comfort, and please bring him back to you. I ask in Jesus's name. Amen

  • Adam - In Reply on Mark 3 - 4 years ago
    Hello, God is the judge and He knows people's hearts and motives. Can someone who commits the sickest most wicked acts make a turnaround? Yes. Paul did- he wrote more of the New Testament books than anyone else.

    So, we're not the judge. We only see one side. We see injustice and want justice, right? God see's the whole picture and knows exactly what is fair for each individual. Nothing is hidden. We also want God to treat us fairly too, right, and not harshly?

    The Word says blasphemy of the holy spirit is the only unforgiveable sin. In my view, I think it's having knowledge of the truth, and still deliberately turning your back on God, and denying Him and Jesus. It's possible that Judas did that. But I personally believe people who don't know better, who have grown up in a dysfunctional environment and were brainwashed to not know right from wrong and who have lived a life of sin will indeed be forgiven if they genuinely turn to follow Jesus. God knows if its genuine or not. He knows our heart.
  • William Brandt on Mark 3 - 4 years ago
    If a person sells their soul to the devil and kills animals,and babies bad goes through all of the weird rituals and sells babies to torture and eat and make billions please tell me they will burn in bell forever and can never be saved. Can anyone who sells their soul to the devil be saved?
  • Dianne - In Reply on Romans 7 - 4 years ago
    Gentlemen the only sin that can't be undone is the one that can't be forgiven because it can't be reversed, and I know there will be more that one understanding of what that may be, so question is what does it mean to blaspheme the holy spirit, have heard several takes on this, but ask yourself what is one thing person can commit that cannot be forgiven even by God.
  • The Holy Ghost on 2 Esdras 15:1 - 4 years ago
    (The fear of THE LORD, given one thousand, one hundred, ninety and two Sabbath days past, it was written, of GOD: What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the Sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out? How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the Sabbath days. For the Son of man is Lord even of the Sabbath day. And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when IT IS COME to pass, ye might believe. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come:) Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding. The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction. O people: If you will not observe to do all the words of this law that are written, that you may fear this glorious and fearful name, MICHAEL ISAAC, THE LORD THY GOD, even the CHRIST child; then the LORD will make thy plagues wonderful and the plagues of thy seed: even great plagues and of long continuance: and sore sicknesses and of long continuance. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: I commanded all men everywhere to repent that your sins may be blotted out. Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud. It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. Man that dug down my alters and covered my memorials: and attempted to corrupt my Word to oppress my people; have violated exceedingly more than any copyright! I AM he that lives, and was dead; and, behold, I AM alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
  • Steven Chapin on Psalms 23 - 4 years ago
    My Shepherd

    My shepherd is the Lord, my King.

    I'll never lack for any thing.

    The greenest pastures are my bed,

    for I have followed where He led.

    He leads to waters calm, and still

    where it is safe to drink my fill.

    His blessings onto me are poured.

    My very soul is thus restored.

    His righteousness he teaches me.

    There is no better way to be.

    If risk of death dare to appear,

    I'll not be struck with any fear.

    My Lord is with me all the way.

    His rod and staff keep wolves at bay.

    The table where He'd have me dine

    has seats for enemies of mine.

    His oil anoints me, cool and mild,

    thus proving that I am His child.

    With bounty, He has blessed me, so

    that soon, my cup may overflow.

    His goodness occupies my mind.

    His mercy follows close behind.

    With Him, forever, I shall live,

    the greatest gift that He can give.

  • Dianne - In Reply on Esther 10 - 4 years ago

  • Tina - In Reply on 1 Corinthians 13 - 4 years ago

  • Dianne on John 3:36 - 4 years ago
    in Romans 13 we give honor and respect to those in authority in the church I.E. Apostles Prophets Evangelists Pastors and Teacher. In timothy we pray for leaders of our country or community big difference

  • Libda - In Reply on Exodus 20:12 - 4 years ago
    Good morning Nicole, it was so nice to see your note this morning! I'm very happy that you were encouraged. Like I said, I know how hard it is to get out of the hole, or the rut that we can get into.

    And yes, I've been there, and depressed many times. Did you know that there were other Christians and God fearing people in the Bible who suffered from depression? There really was. So you're not alone.

    As far as the old hymns go, like I said they really have done a wonderful job of ministering to my hurting soul. One of my favorite places to go to listen to them on YouTube is the SE Samonte channel. They're mainly acapella which I love, and they sing many many old hymns. They have beautiful outdoor scenery in the wilderness with the songs, they include the lyrics and usually at the end of each song they put a King James Bible scripture on. I'll just have to say right up front that it is a Mormon channel, and I am not Mormon nor do I advocate Mormonism. Simply put I am a King James Bible believer. The way I see it, as long as I am just there for the music, that's okay.

    Quite frankly, as a King James Bible believer, I realized a number of years ago there is no Bible for denominations! I can't remember the exact scripture but it goes something like this... One saith I am of apollos, another I am of paul, another I am of Jesus, and it should not be so! I'm paraphrasing of course.

    I've got to get rolling now, I'm actually a truck driver and getting ready to head out of Nebraska and heading to Utah!

    The Lord bless you and keep you, the Lord make his face to shine upon you! Have a beautiful day Nicole!

    With love, Mama Linda
  • Philip - In Reply on Isaiah 30 - 4 years ago
    I have noticed the sun is a brighter white and can be more blinding and glaring and more visible behind clouds and the same for the moon too. I think it's very obvious but no mention of it anywhere, except here?
  • Angela Rex on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    Let's all pray for our relationships with our earthly family members, for there are special bonds involved developed since our youths...

    Thankyou dear Heavenly Father for graciously hearing and delivering on this request also, in that name that is written that You placed above every name, the powerful name of your biological Son our risen Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

    Amen = so be it!
  • Bahss - In Reply on John 4 - 4 years ago
    Thats only for the new testament. Im making a claim for books outsude of the testaments. I.e. we can have the new and old testament as the bible. But why not have another area of texts where we can interpret the word lf God through other cultures? After all, they are inspired by God to some extent too right? Its not like God chose the middle east to be the source of all wisdom. Surely then it is up to us to seek the word of God in areas other than the bible without throwing the bible away obviously

    You have written perfect and truth, we teach the same, first to become Disciple ( mark 8:34) and make Disciples ( mat 28:19) so we are chosen by God to do his will ( John 6:38) so let us build the Body of CHRIST with 100% Holiness!
  • Adam - In Reply on John 4 - 4 years ago
    Hello, the Bible is a collection of books that were considered canon, or inspired by God. To be deemed as such it had to meet rigid criteria. You can easily search in a few seconds what criteria was used for canon.
  • Names of God Meaning - In Reply on Deuteronomy 12:18 - 4 years ago
    This term, "God Almighty" in verse one is the English translation of the term El Shaddai.Wherever we find the term "God Almighty," it is speaking of the revelation of God using the Hebrew name El Shaddai.

    Who is El Shaddai? My favorite definition and the one we will useEl Shaddai is the God of "more than enough." "Enough" is that which is required to meet our needs. "More than enough" is having extra left over to meet the needs of others. The revelation of El Shaddai brought with it a pronouncement of fruitfulness and prosperity. You are blessed to be a blessing!

    YouTube has that song: El Shaddai
  • His Name is Life D - In Reply on Deuteronomy 12:18 - 4 years ago
    If you live in the United States, I have found many nice King James Bibles at the Goodwill Stores. Many are under 5 Dollars. Try Salvation Army too.

    If you are outside of the United States, you can call 1-800-700-7000 and probably get one. If you need one in your language, see if they have those.

    Some people give money to those ministries, so all people in need can get a Bible. What a great way to love your neighbor.

  • One of the best verses to find in the Bible - In Reply on Galatians 2 - 4 years ago
    If you read all of Romans 7, you'll see the total of count of "I"s is much more.

    Paul called himself "chief of sinners" somewhere else.

    I think many people feel that way too. But then we roll into Romans 8: "there is now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus...."

    It's not What We Did that's impressive: it's what Jesus did that was impressive!

    Amen?
  • Bahss on John 4 - 4 years ago
    Why is it believed that only the Bible is the word of God? After all, it is compiled by the Church - not by God directly. So, as followers of Christ, should we not look to include external texts to help ourselves to understand God? Jesus told his own wisdom on his own authority - to be like Christ would mean to do the same, no? We should not reject the wisdom and truth in the bible but i believe we should always be trying to expand upon it. Just as science helps us to undrrstand God's creation, non-biblical texts or so-called 'pagan' religions can also help us understand God right?
