That is john.

How do you recognize if a person is a Prophet or NOT in these last days and times?

Mark 16:15 KJV Jesus tells us to go into the world and preach the gospel to EVERY CREATURE. Do you know why creature was used instead of MAN ??

W H G for verse 18

Peter(Petros)- a small pebble

Jesus - The chief cornerstone, the foundation of our faith(rock of our salvation)

"On this rock(himself) I will build my church" One of Jesus Christ's sayings

Peter not the first Pope, but alive in Christ his savior (Yahweh, our savior)

Without the blood of Jesus being shed for our sins and His resurrection Christianity in its true form cannot exist.

If Jesus was only a sinful man like us - remember the wages of sin is death, but God's gift to us is eternal life through His Son!

I have a Question on a believer who has turned against God in this time of Satan but She still in church but out of church post awful comments against our President and is believing all the hate in our country is right the looting and burning murders believes abortion and same sex marriage is ok

Please, help me pray for my son, Larry Jr. He needs God and a job. The man lost his job, girlfriend, and now, will to live. He doesn't have any friends, either. Pray that God will send him a good, Christian person to talk and visit with him. I know that prayer an change things. Many thanks for your time and prayers.

Yes I now that wages of seen is death if Jesus had not died there will be nothing like Christian.

God bless you.

Now have you seen it.

The seventy disciples did not know their worth until they came back to report saying even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. ( Luke 10:17).

Amen.

Even you

Rosanne,

Jesus allowed divorce based upon fornication, which gives the injured party the right to re-marry again.

Please keep me in your prayers today GOD bless you

A life of Peace and Comfort is a life built on God's promises. With all the ups and downs God's faithfulness stands. We have been abiding under His shadows and will continue to be..so numerous to be mentioned..His saving grace upon my family..provision of our various needs...protecting us all the way..saving my husband from a ghastly autocrash..he was in comma for three months but he survived it all with no scars..His grace for my childrens education..all miracles..His grace upon my life..saving us from all battles of life and His greatest miracle of delivering one of my children from bondage and the shackles of death.. Psalm 91 is prayer for overall protection and God's mercies.

My prayer request is holly father pls forgive me my sins father pls thanks these is my prayer request

Amen indeed. You've shared Great Truths of our Blessed Lord Jesus Christ Who also said, "because I live, ye shall live also." Jn 14:19. The fact that He gave His Life for us all by His death & then rose to resurrection Life for our justification, gave the full meaning to what He said to the people, how He lived His Life before the people, & His willingness to lay it down for each of them & us. No other self acclaimed prophet of the religions of the world has done or could ever do what Jesus has done: their bodies remain in the grave - the Lord Jesus arose & is the Lord of Glory ever living to make intercession for us.

Thank you for the clarification. Much appreciated. Looking for messages ahead

Praise the Lord! What is spiritual difference between: Jesus as my Maker and Jesus as my Creator?

Judy, that was a lovely, profound testimony not only to the Lord's faithfulness to you & your children, but also clearly of your deep love for the Lord & faithful attending to His Word. I was very touched to read it & to see that through your sometimes sad & difficult life, you remained confident & faithful (full of faith) in the One Who only could keep your life and your children's lives together.

You can now look over the years, remembering both the good & bad times, but I'm sure when you consider it all collectively, it was only the Lord from past to present, Who underpinned each of your lives, giving His testimony to your hearts that it was all of His Doing. And this Grace you have used in the blessing of your children & many others I'm sure over the years. So it appears that you have been a very busy woman in the Lord's business. Every blessing as you rest in His Love & prove His Goodness each day.

I would like thank my Almighty God for ALL He has done, is doing now, and will continue to do for me, as so long as I keep reaching out to Him, seeking Him. I praise Thee everyday all throughout the day. In the name of Jesus Amen.

I would like to take this opportunity to ask for you all to pray for salvation for my boyfriend Eric Bostic. He is struggling, as we all do, but he really is struggling deeply. I ask that you all also pray that he can stop drinking and using mind altering substances, get a better job and to find a place to stay. I love this man, God knows I do, very much. I believe God is leading me....I mean right now as I speak these words here, He's using me to draw Eric closer to His bussom, so that Eric and I both can change for the better, to have a more closer and personal relationship with Him. Things aren't perfect and God doesn't expect us to be perfect either. It's time for us to live better righteous lives now. At the least prepare ourselves for what is to come, and that is CHRIST JESUS' RETURN.... HALLELUJAH, AMEN!!!

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH, GOD BLESS!!

This is an example of the peculiarities of English, especially when we see it expressed as they did in 'olden' days. They are similar to the words: 'Thou' , 'Thy' and 'Thine'. We easily understand it in modern English as, 'You' , 'Your' and 'Yours' when read in a sentence. When attending an Assembly in India, I was always amused (not in judgemental way, of course), when the brother sharing from the Word, always spoke of 'Thine Holy Word or Thine Holy Child', when he should have used the singular, 'Thy'. But to those who were none the wiser, his preaching tended to appear better endowed using 'Thine'.

So, in Psalm 35:4 & 26, we read 'my' and 'mine' & it becomes a little confusing with its use. The word, 'my' tells us that David is speaking about the 'hurt' = injury or death, that his enemies were planning to give him. Whereas 'mine' in v 26, speaks about them rejoicing in the 'hurt' that they had already afflicted him with & for which he was suffering. I hope you can see the difference in the usage of these words here.

That was very interesting & informative Jesse - I didn't know that nor did I see the any difference in the word, along with many other folk I'm sure. A good exercise & encouragement to textual examination, & of course, knowing Greek, helps. Appreciated your knowledge here.

Michael,

Paul wrote 1 Corinthians as a correctional letter to a carnal church. That was their spiritual condition. Paul had evangelized in Corinth during his second missionary journey and many were saved at that time. But there was a lot of corruption in the church in Corinth and Paul wrote the letter to answer a lot of questions the church there had.

Now the verses you listed where Paul begins by saying What?, I'm not sure if he's scolding them or asking it this way as if to say this is something you should know by now.

Remember, Paul evangelized there earlier. But 3 to 5 years later they have all these problems in the church and they have a lot of questions for Paul.

Remember I said they were a carnal church? Did you know that a Christian can be carnal and it be completely normal? But there is also an abnormal carnal.



There are two Greek words for carnal. The only difference in the two words is one letter. We have Sarkinos, and Sarkikos. It is the word for flesh. That's what the word carnal means. Sarkinos is normal. Sarkikos is abnormal.

Paul told them in 1 Corinthians Chapter 3 that when he first came to them that he could only feed them with milk and not meat. He said because they were yet carnal, and he used the word Sarkinos. It was normal because they were newborn babes in Christ. As newborn believers, they could only handle the milk of the word.

But now 3 to 5 years later Paul is writing to them and basically saying that by now they should be more established as a church, but they are still carnal, only this time the word Sarkikos is used, abnormal carnal.

So Paul wrote this letter as a correctional letter to a carnal and corrupt church. I hope I have made some sense out of this and I hope this answers your question.

If anything, I've shared some Greek with you. We see the English word carnal and we automatically think that it is bad. But in the Greek, there is a normal carnal (Sarkinos), and an abnormal (Sarkikos).

The links on the Godhead comment did not work correctly. You'll have to read those out of your Bible.

Cheryl,

I'm Looking at Hebrews 11:35. It says women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:



Women received their dead raised to life again?



I have some references to share with you where God did did some miraculous things to restore their children to back to them. Read 1 Kings 17:23 and 2 Kings 4:36-37.

Hebrews 11:35 goes on to say: And others, and by the way, the word others, because there are two main words in Greek, one means others of the same kind, and one means others of a different kind.



This is others of the same kind. The reason why that's important is because the others by faith experienced all these conquests.



But others of the same kind of people didn't. And it was all by faith.



And others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:



They didn't value the survival of their life, but they were tortured and put to death, and by faith they looked to a better resurrection.

Remember also in the New Testament that Lazarus was raised from the dead.

Hurricane season is starting early.

Ridicule and accusation are spirits.

Demons are real; and invisible. Be glad you've never had one try to break your neck! I have.

Don't mock things you don't understand.

I always ask that a person see their Pastor for some counseling if it's available now (with some churches closed). Divorce is a hard issue for Christians. I do know it's really hard on the children. Culture doesn't always consider what's best for them in this situation.

Do not tell them who the guilty party is!! Let them love each parent without having to blame one or the other.

There are reasons why God gave man/woman these rules for marriage and divorce. He's on yours and the kids side.

Deuteronomy 34:1-4, is the Law;

1 Corinthians 7, is in the period of grace.

Read both when you are calm. Pray much.

Deuteronomy 34:1-4 (tap the link)

When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.

And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man's wife.

And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement, and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her to be his wife;

Her former husband, which sent her away, may NOT take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.

You see the seriousness? The children are not to know of "adult issues". No sleepovers, no romantic displays in front of them. It messes with their emotions seriously, and they will have lifelong trust issues.

Mishael

What do you think they wanted to speak to him about?

Matthew 19:27-28 The Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the 12 tribes of Israel. (How will the saints judge the 12 tribes? Because there will still be flesh and blood beings on earth when the Lord returns).

Revelation 21:1-3 (this is the Father coming down with New Jerusalem) John saw the holy city, New Jerusalem coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

Revelation 21:10 John was shown the great city, the holy Jerusalem descending out of heaven from God.

Revelation 6:1-8; 12-17 Takes place during the tribulation on earth, but also speaks of Jesus AFTER the tribulation and the wrath he will bring on earth. (Reference Isaiah 2:10 and Isaiah speaks of this event in Revelation 6)

Revelation 7:1-4. 9; 13-14 the Lord will seal his servants in their foreheads. 144,000 of all the tribes of Israel. He will also save a "great multitude" which no man could number of "all" nations. (These are the people who survived the Great Tribulation, some who will have gotten converted during the tribulation)

Matthew 24:29-31 Immediately after the tribulation the Lord returns.

Revelation 19:11-14;19-21 Heaven will open, Jesus will show up on a white horse. He will judge and make war.

I know that's a lot. I hope that you will read through the scriptures on your own time.

But know this, there will only be a 3 and a half year actual tribulation period, and anyone who is alive during that time will have to try and survive it, unless they are in the place of safety on earth which the Lord will have reserved for his people...and that place is the Wilderness over in Jerusalem.
