Wesley's Notes for Colossians 3:5

3:5 Mortify therefore - Put to death, slay with a continued stroke. Your members - Which together make up the body of sin. Which are upon the earth - Where they find their nourishment. Uncleanness - In act, word, or thought. Inordinate affection - Every passion which does not flow from and lead to the love of God. Evil desire - The desire of the flesh, the desire of the eye, and the pride of life. Covetousness - According to the derivation of the word, means the desire of having more, or of any thing independent on God. Which is idolatry - Properly and directly; for it is giving the heart to a creature.

People's Bible Notes for Colossians 3:5

Col 3:5 Mortify therefore your members. The Greek word "nekroo", rendered "moritfy", is stronger. It means "put to death". Since you died to the world and the flesh, slay also the earthly lusts and passions which belong to the flesh. They belong to the old nature, not to the new creature. Uncleanness. Every kind of impure act. Inordinate affection. Lustful passion. Covetousness. See PNT "Eph

I'm new to the truth of Jesus . My question is what is a prodestant not sure on the spelling of that. And are they believers in Christ?

explain Hebrew 10;26

i I want a bible commentary

Thank you!

As you know, God is now speaking to Job (from Job chapter 38 onwards). God gives Job a whole list of things that He does, to which Job & others cannot have input to - all this to show Job that God is in control, not Job - He knows what He is doing & how He looks at things & at people.

So in Job 39:13, God refers to the peacock & ostrich, who carelessly leave their eggs buried in the earth, ignorant that something can pass by & crush those eggs. God says that He has deprived these animals of 'wisdom' to know or to look ahead as to the other possibilities of the eggs' survival. The bird only knows to lay its eggs & bury them; she gives no further thought about their further protection. Like the proverbial ostrich which buries its head in the sand, believing that no one can see it, since it can't see anyone.

Job was not to be like such animals devoid of understanding (you will need to look for this truth as you read the Book of Job, as it would be too much to write here). Rather Job needed to realize his humanity, his lack of wisdom & need to accept God's actions & dealings with him.

After this great dialogue by the Lord, Job finally realized that his wisdom lay in his being quiet before the Lord ( Job 40:3-5). As James 1:19 says: "let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath".

Are you referring to the mentioning of 'beasts' in the Book of Revelation?

If so, we start to read about these 'beasts', otherwise translated from the Greek, as living creatures, in Revelation chapter 4:6. You can read about their description from that verse onwards, but they seem to be located in "the midst & round about the Throne of God", signifying a very real part of the Presence & Holiness of God. Of course, the Apostle John could not see God, as no human can do, so all these visions that John received, were to show him something of the beings & activity in Heaven - and that all there, are in constant worship of the One Who lives eternally & to fulfil His Plans for the World. These 'beasts' are not angels & they are also distinct from the other beings that are in Heaven & that surround the Throne of God.

I enjoyed reading your comments & response & do agree with what you've written. Though, I had to spend a little time considering your understanding of "Lordship Salvation". As much as I detest such categories, I realize that these terms are necessary for an understanding of a person's position without the need to detail all the beliefs that come under its umbrella.

After reading more about Lordship Salvation (LS), I actually seem to agree with it, when one considers its antithesis, "Easy Believism", which I certainly don't espouse to. You wrote that LS, as you've recently learned, is heresy. You also wrote about it: "Our attempts at obeying God don't save us from sin! Nor do they "keep" us saved or "maintain" our salvation. (& disobedience, after being saved, doesn't cause us to lose our salvation.)." Forgive my ignorance, but does LS actually infer that obedience to God saves us/keeps us saved from sin, likewise, disobedience causes loss of salvation?

I couldn't find the above claims by those proponents of LS, rather that it is a correct understanding of Scripture, to indicate that a person truly saved by the Blood of Christ & reborn, will in all seriousness & compulsion, want to live for the One Who purchased him & be His disciple in all areas of life. There will be times of falling into sin, not unrestrained sin of course, but the Spirit within will immediately impress conviction, with great spiritual discomfort & a requirement to seek forgiveness & change. If he should neglect this & continue to persist in disobedience, then his testimony before the Lord might seem hypocritical to us, but ultimately to be judged & dealt with by the Lord & not us.

So, what I'm saying, is that I agree with you, it's just that I'm unaware of LS propagating a teaching of 'salvation through Christ & the keeping of the Law'. Of course, I have other views of the application of the Law in the life of the believer in Christ: but that's another matter for another time. Blessings.

The Bible teaches on: The Day of the Lord; also named, Caught Up in the Clouds. Just enter any of those in the top Search Box.

Also, Thief in the Night, in the Clouds.

Rapture is a state or experience of being carried away. The English word comes from a Latin word, rapio, which means to seize or snatch in relation to an ecstasy of spirit or the actual removal from one place to another. In other words, it means to be carried away in spirit or in body. The Rapture of the church means the carrying away of the church from earth to heaven.

The Greek word from this term "rapture" is derived appears in 1 Thessalonians 4:17, translated "caught up." The Latin translation of this verse used the word rapturo. The Greek word it translates is harpazo, which means to snatch or take away. Elsewhere it is used to describe how the Spirit caught up Philip near Gaza and brought him to Caesarea ( Acts 8:39) and to describe Paul's experience of being caught up into the third heaven ( 2 Cor. 12:2-4). Thus there can be no doubt that the word is used in 1 Thessalonians 4:17 to indicate the actual removal of people from earth to heaven.

It is commonly asserted that the word rapture doesn't appear in the Bible, and this absence is held forth as evidence that the teaching of the rapture is a falsehood. But this claim is untrue. The word rapture does appear in the Bible. It appears in the exact same way that words like angel and apostle appear in the Bible. he word rapture is simply the anglicized form of the Greek word (harpaz) that appears in 1 Thessalonians 4:17 in the original text.

To begin with, the English word rapture is derived from the Latin participle raptus from the verb rapio. And Latin rapio and Greek (harpaz) are cognates - they are the same word.Don't be fooled by the superficial differences between Latin rapio and Greek harpaz. The - (-az) on the end of (harpaz) is not part of the shared stem but a common Koine Greek verb ending.

Have faith in God. With God nothing shall be impossible. Ask in prayer believing, and you shall have whatsoever you ask. (St. Mark 11:23-26).

Whatever things you desire, when you pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. When you pray, forgive. Have faith in God. You can speak to the mountain and tell it to move. Don't doubt in your heart, but believe that those things you ask for will come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith ( Mark 11:23-26). God's word is filled with great and precious promises.

I pray that I get a chance to find Christ before this world ends.

The Christmas season is a time to celebrate the wondrous works of the Lord. When Jesus was born of the virgin Mary, God visited mankind through his precious Son Jesus. Mary was favored by God and the angel of the Lord told her that she would conceive in her womb, and bring forth a Son whose name shall be Jesus (St. Luke 1:30-31). He shall be great and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and he shall have the throne of David (St. Luke 1:32-35). David was a king anointed by God. However, Jesus' reign and throne is forever. He is the greatest King and his kingdom has no end. The angel told Mary, The Holy Ghost (God's Spirit) shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest (God) shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. Jesus was conceived holy, born holy, lived holy, died holy, was resurrected holy, and reigns holy on his throne with his holy angels in heaven. This is complete and magnificent holiness. Jesus is God's gift to mankind. Through Jesus, God redeems us and guides us through all truth (the Word of God). Jesus shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Prince of Peace, and the Everlasting Father. Of his kingdom there shall be no end. Jesus shall save his people from their sins (Matt.1:21). We can all be saved because of the obedience and suffering of Jesus. Let us swiftly seize upon the opportunity to have salvation -- it is free. Just ask Jesus to help you, and He will save and preserve your soul. Jesus is our Saviour. He makes us whole. All power is given unto Him in heaven and in earth, by God. When we serve Him, He is always with us unto the end of the world ( Matt. 28:18-20). Worship the Lord and receive His blessings each day.

1 Thessalonians Chapter 4 is one place you will find it. But, you will not find the word "rapture" in your English Bible. The word rapture comes from the Latin word Raptus. The original language (Greek) uses the word harpadzo which is basically the same thing. So whether you use the word rapture, raptus, or harpadzo, they all mean the same thing, to be "caught up" or seized by force. And that is what is found in 1 Thessalonians Chapter 4.

1 Timothy Chapter 5, Verses 17 & 18:

Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honor, that is, acknowledge that, especially the ones who labor in the word and doctrine, or teaching. For the scripture says, and there are two pieces of scripture here that Paul uses to back it up.

First of all, Deuteronomy Chapter 25 Verse 4: He says thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treads out the corn.

In 1 Corinthians Chapter 9, Paul says, "You don't think that God was talking about oxen do you?" If you have oxen treading the corn, you got to feed the oxen too, or else he's not going to be around to tread the corn for you.

The second scripture is Luke 10:7. The words of Jesus, The laborer is worthy of his reward, or hire.

So acknowledge those who labor in the word, and in doctrine, and make sure that they're taken care of.

christ let his son die on the cross, How do I praise God and not asking anything,?. How do i praise god Holy name?

That's a great point...I know I sure could use a lengthy media fast. Thanks for the reply.

Try Thessalonians Book 1 Chapter 4

Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine. For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer is worthy of his reward. ( 1 Timothy 5:17-18)

Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation. ( Hebrews 13:7)

But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you. ( Hebrews 13:16-17)

Please Pray over my Family and everyone who is in need of a Miracle. I have sinned and I repent and have asked GOD for forgiveness and because of GOD and the fact that I love him and want him to be proud of me, I will never commit a sin of theft and deceit again. I am very sorry for my wrong doing. I Pray for victory over my situation and I know GOD will prepare a table for me in the presence of my enemies.

Thank you and GOD BLESS YOU!

Elsewhere the word is translated simply as lust. Here it seems to imply obsessive sinful desire.

Comments by Alex on the Children of PROMISE WHICH IS THE H.G. Jesus will not sire flesh and blood children simply b/c his seed is the living WORD, Ya gotta realize they don't call him the bridegoom for nothin , he is gonna sire Children in US,Thats y he has to know us, that when that good seed is sown in mans hearts. Our Lord reproduces after the GOD KIND meaning the H.G. his offspring ,When he breathe on them he was reproducing after the God KIND as his breath was his WORD and his WORD IS HIS SEED , Thats y he said b/c i have spoken these WORDS sorrows have filled your hearts , SORROWS imply a spritual pregnancy, Thats y he tells them of a woman in travail and birth pains ,then he tells them i will see you again simply b/c they were gonna birth a baby Christ .Whosoever receiveth one such child in my name receiveth me . Which is the Child of PROMISE the H.G. AS THAT WHICH IS BORN OF THE SPIRIT IS SPIRIT . Thus we see that Christ is truly GOD the Son simply b/c he reproduces after GOD kind Ya remember God said that every thing has to reproduce ,MULTIPLY after its KIND, THIS is HOW WE KNOW WITHOUT A DOUBT THAT Christ IS TRULY God the SON. It was the Father that said i will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven. and God Almighty swore by his very self ,Thats y the SOWER OF THAT GOOD SEED WANTS TO SOW HIS PRECIOUS SEED IN OUR HEARTS THAT WE MIGHT BIRTH A BABY CHRIST WHICH IS THE CHILD OF PROMISE THE H.G. ( Multiplication ) Thats y he said whosoever receiveth one such child in MY NAME receiveth ME And that is how we bring forth fruit unto God by his seed his words etc which is the new covenant remember i will know them all from the least to the greatest, this know them all is an intimacy that is gonna result in a heavenly birth. This Woman in Rev 12 is the best examply of the NEW BIRTH ,Her Child is the H.G. that Child of PROMISE , THE MULTIPLICATION OF CHRIST VIA HIS SEED ETC. The WORDS of the book, That NEW COVENANT IN HIS BLOOD, The woman is US THE WORLD . GB

Request prayer for my Granddaughter Brandie McLaughlin. She is 7 months pregnant and her health is in serious danger.

As far as interpreting Scriptures, prayer is always a good idea first so you don't "miss it", "it" meaning the meat or manna that'll fatten up and edify your spiritual man. Also praying in The Spirit/stammering lips/speaking in tongues, ushers in The Holy Ghost so you can interpret The Word in a spiritual way instead of in a fleshly way. That is why (in my experience) The Gift of Tongues was the first as evidence that you had/have The Holy Ghost because as you speak in tongues, you can feel the Holy Ghost fall on you with such a sweet quickening, with a curious yearn for more of an intimate relationship with The Father, who can then bless you with more of The 9 spiritual gifts. The Gift of knowledge and wisdom (God will open up and give you a peak at the most mind blowing beautiful awe inspiring knowledge that pertains to what you or whomever The Lord wishes you to minister to, with the Wisdom of when to use it and/or to whom to share it with, so that they too may become blessed and a walking blessing) if it doesn't witness with you now, it may not be what you need as an answer right now. But debating Scriptures, will only bring strife/distance someone that may have been on the precipice of giving all to God but was turned off by a debating battering spirit. Yes we are to gather together & reason one to another, but as I read a few of these thread comments, its reading like a political "I'm right you're wrong" type page, we're speaking of the most sacred of sacred and are blessed enough to even get a glimpse of such artistry/strength/healing/beautiful poetry that IS ALIVE! That is exactly why you shouldn't minister to anyone who doesn't want to hear it. "don't cast your pearls among the swine", what are pearls? The Word, who are the swine? foolish scoffers. I was blessed with The Holy Ghost at 8 with a vision of red ribbons blowing out of my mouth into the wind as The Tongues burst out of my mouth, felt like I was going to die if I kept my mouth closed.

None of you have provoked me.to do anything but pray!

Genesis 1:1

In the beginning:

Many of brethren doesn't knew when n days it's fall. It's just mentioned In the Beginning!!!!?

"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." - Romans 6:23

I hope I'm not misunderstanding you, & please forgive me if I am. But the Bible states otherwise than your overall message.

While it's true that many church institutions (& traditions) teach lies, & while it's true that nobody who lives in (I guess you mean habitual) sin is free from sin, not one of us is, has been, or ever will be able, in this life, to be free from sin by trying to obey all of God's laws.

It's impossible for us to do this perfectly, 100% of the time, & under or in any & all circumstances! That's why Jesus Christ did it for us instead, praise Him!

I once thought Lordship Salvation (which your message seems to espouse) was correct, but recently I (& others) have learned that it's a heresy.

Our attempts at obeying God don't save us from sin! Nor do they "keep" us saved or "maintain" our salvation. (& disobedience, after being saved, doesn't cause us to lose our salvation.)

Repentance is important in salvation & for sanctification, but repentance (or anyone/thing else, includ. the keeping of the Law) isn't the Savior, the Son of God is.

Jesus Christ is the only one who kept the Law perfectly & was, is, & will always be sinless; He is our perfect & complete sacrifice for our sins!

I pray that you & others would see this truth! It isn't right that anyone should be held in bondage to this legalistic, joy-destroying, Christ-depreciating false gospel.
