    Revelation 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

    Revelation 17:8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
  • Albert on 1 Corinthians 13 - 5 years ago
    Without the love of God in our hearts, the nine gifts of the Spirit are meaningless. The Greatest Gift to possess is the power of love. Love is eternal. Worldly love is not the love of God. It tolerates sin( worldly love) and breeds hate and division--even among Christians. Love has no color. Love is kind. vaunteth not itself is puffed up thinketh no evil. Love does not rejoice in iniquity. Real love will not support evil.If I give my body to burned and I do not do it for the love of God --I died for nothing. How many so-called movements have been motivated by anger, resentment, worldly acceptance? Jesus was motivated by love to die for a world that hated him.
  • Jenny on Luke 6 - 5 years ago
    I have finally figured out why we are commanded to do this; because it helps us to forgive. Have you ever noticed that when you pray for someone, you feel love for that person, even if you don't know that person? When we pray for those who have hurt us, or continually hurt us, it's not so their hearts will be changed--although I often pray for that. It's not so they will stop hurting us--although I often pray for that. It's so that the love that we automatically feel for people when we pray for them will heal our hearts and help us to forgive. Sometimes we forgive but the hurt and resentment is still there--praying for the person who hurt you helps your heart heal from the pain.
  • Albert on 1 Corinthians 12 - 5 years ago
    I am so grateful that we are in one body. And as such, we each have a part in serving our Lord Jesus Christ. Paul has done an excellent job of explaining the spritual gifts that are active in the church. Each gift is for the edification of the Body of Christ.

  • Lorna on Romans 2:11 - 5 years ago
    He (our creator), is no respect of persons, we read from the bible.

    so why did he choose to be born a jew?

    then later become a christian?

    this seems a controversial issue!

    for the bible also says...

    i change not!

    can one begin to trust anyone who calls himself

    god, who changes not,

    then,do a complete flip? to keep what has always

    been his!

    and after what he so firmly says! i change not!

    even satan would have something to say about this!

    and as we also know, he is immortal

    he is perfect,

    so there is

    no change from perfection to being a mortal creator

    which would, put him in the same bracket as satan, who is

    a created being, thus here he lowers himself

    (when there is no need to), in not only satan's eyes,

    but all mankind, being born again to prove

    his ownership! he turns human like us!

    no...

    he is the owner to all his creation!

    never has he lost anything to a created being - satan!

    who can never stand up to his maker, owing every

    minute to him for his own life, and would surely be

    consumed by the creator's presence!

    for the wages of sin is death,

    satan is living only

    through his makers gratis, or he should have long

    been dead by now!

    i believe my creator is perfect in everyway.

    never has he lost anything he is owner of,

    not incompetent, untruthful to his word,

    lacking a sure foundation, and the ability

    to hold on to what is rightfully his!

    unaware of the helplessness of man's

    suffering, that he took so long to come to

    his aid!

    had to leave a place called heaven to show

    who he rightfully is!

    then to prove to man he had to lower his

    status in order to win back the ownership

    of this sad world! and his people!

    and then be told by satan...

    to bow down to him, and he (our creator)

    would be given this whole!

    i also believe my creator knew what he did

    back then, even before he created anything

    for surely he is an immortal being, knows his

    own, and how to manage it all, even satan.

    he need never to prove to anyone or answer.
  • Bob Hilt - In Reply on Revelation 18 - 5 years ago
    Barry I am sorry to hear about that. I do believe the Bible teaches the age of accountability is 20 years old.

    Exodus 30:14 Every one that passeth among them that are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give an offering unto the LORD.

    One was not required to offer a sacrifice for oneself till they were 20 years old. otherwise the Father was offering on behalf of the family. in other words under the headship of the family.

    Numbers 1:3 From twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Israel: thou and Aaron shall number them by their armies.

    A male was not to be drafted into the army until they were 20 years old. Not considered an adult till then.

    Numbers 1:18 And they assembled all the congregation together on the first day of the second month, and they declared their pedigrees after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, by their polls.

    A census of the adults was not reckoned until they were 20.

    I am of the opinion that she shall grow up in the 1,000 reign of Christ after the tribulation and given a chance to accept or reject the Lord. After all in the kingdom believers do not marry as Jesus said in:

    Matthew 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

    Yet there are children in the kingdom.

    Isaiah Chapter 11:6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.

    7 And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.

    8 And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den.

    until a Lion can eat straw this has not happened, yet there is a sucking child there, so where do they come from?

    Aborted kids?
  • Peter on Colossians 1:22 - 5 years ago
    God made everything. he even put genes in you to make his image in man and of course he put the neurotransmitters in you to maintain that image if you develop your mind with God but Adam didn't do that. Adam had one commandment and he broke it after naming the woman, woman because she came from man and then naming her Eve, and so he was expelled form the Garden and missed his chance of developing with God. God puts ten commandments in front of us. Children mis that chance if we do not lay the foundation so as they can choose wisely when they are adults.

    Genes do not change or mutate when they develop as they are suppose to with God; but when we develop with wrong stimulations get wrong results and often mutation after the fact that we reap what we sow and so we reap mutations; appropriate stimulations give appropriate results, Inappropriate gives inappropriate results. So what is one suppose to do. Do as you do if you are getting appropriate results as no man or woman is perfect; and when it comes to our children we can only do what we know to do and or is natural to do, and i know it may be hard to know what is natural anymore as we have or are losing touch with nature. Nevertheless, it is all about mind development and how we develop and no man or woman can help it if they do not plant the proper seeds. That is maybe the function of parents and or actually man as he is suppose to be head and or is usually head and or the woman if she is the head . It seems that nothing is straight forward any more and at this point; i usually quit as I do not need the confusion etc........

    Incidentally, O I know now why scientist do not have a MindHQ, in fact a few messages ago; I actually did a MindHQ along with my answers and i think I passed it but I knew the answer as I designed it, and or copied it from an intenet search on the brain or mind and or something

  • Witness Zwane on Psalms 118 - 5 years ago
    The promises of the Lord are Yes and Amen indeed. I see Him perform His Word in my life;promoting me when my enemies thought it was over.

    Indeed, the stone that the builder's rejected has since become the heard of the corner. This, only the Lord can do and it is really AMAZING!!!

    The Lord, be Glorified forever and ever, Amen!!!
  • Peter - In Reply on Revelation 18 - 5 years ago
    It is a very hard way to die. I think that the problem relates to getting away from God and then when you are stressed or confused or on drugs or are partying and then probably stressed and confused, and you have no one to talk to and understand; and you do not know God and Jesus; who do you talk to?

    When you have God; You always have someone who understand you; and will always stay with you etc.......

    Today people have turned their back on God for the belief and deception of evolution and money also seems to be the Goal; and their is nothing wrong with money if it is used for the right stuff but in this world; man control it and rules it and children starve, get sick, die. live in slums, etc.

    Children don't need to read and understand scriptures but they need the basis, God created the world and everything in it. etc.

  • Peter on Genesis 1:25 - 5 years ago
    Ecclesiastes 12:13 | View whole chapter | See verse in context

    Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
  • Peter on Genesis 1:25 - 5 years ago
    Let us sum it all up I think the Bible says. and the sole duty of man I think it say somewhere is to serve God. You do your best and that is it. You can't do more. So, no when to fold up and know when to hold up and know when to walk away and know when to fight. That's a gamblers song and you shouldn't gamble and so it sounds good and it was enticing but: but I don't necessarily agree with it,, well maybe a chord or 2 when I learn as i know what chords and notes are, But I do not want to loss my main point. The sole duty of man is to serve God. I an not sure where it is in the Bible but i think that it is there somewhere ,, probably in Jobs
  • Chris - In Reply on 1 Maccabees 3:48 - 5 years ago
    Kelly, the Books of Maccabees are considered a part of the Apocryphal books, i.e. books, for various reasons, were deemed has having material in them which were inconsistent to the other books written by verified people (e.g. the apostles). These differences were sometimes minor in nature & others sufficiently major so as to add error to history or doctrine. The Maccabees are two of such books. For example, in 1 Macc 2:52 it says: "Was not Abraham found faithful when tested, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness", which tells us that Abraham was found righteous based on his works (i.e. the offering up of Isaac as a sacrifice). Whereas, Rom 4:3 says, "For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness", telling us that it was by his faith in God (belief that God would somehow provide Himself a sacrifice) that made him righteous before God. Quite an error.

    Another example: in 2 Macc 12:41-45, the reading of it shows that (a) Judas collected two thousand drachmas of silver & sent it to Jerusalem for a sin offering & to make atonement for the dead - and this then leads in to the RC doctrine of purgatory - all vehemently opposed to Holy Scripture ( Heb 9:27: "And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgement"). There is no intermediate place of suffering & purification for entrance into Heaven.

    So for this & many reasons, all who are intent to learn the Truth & hear what the Spirit of God is saying to them, should read from the Holy Bible (KJV preferred) so as to avoid believing error. Too many people have been ignorantly led to believe anything they hear from the pulpit. It is our responsibility to guide them to the Light & Truth that they might not believe a lie.

    We are awaiting, "The fullness of the Gentiles" to be complete. Search those scriptures.

    Go down to the numbers at the bottom (history), and read some of the recent prophetic studies posted on here.

    Since mice were involved, maybe it was bubonic plague.
  • Mishael - In Reply - 5 years ago
    I heard prophetic utterance: that the body of Christ could ( which means we have permission)

    Corporate Pray, city wide, nation wide, worldwide; unite our FAITH and pray for the virus to dry up from the ROOT and die in The Name of Jesus.

    Problem one: our faith has been shaken.

    Problem two: Christians are ordered out of

    Assembling together.

    This needs some organizing by Pastors.

    How fast could that happen?
  • Mishael to Barry - In Reply on Revelation 18 - 5 years ago
    It's so hard to see someone die that way. She was very young, but certainly was an age to know the difference of good and evil. Our society romanticizes suicide as an option.

    As I said, I've known where she went in her mind. Life can become so painfull. Reality is too bright, so you stay in the shadows in your head. The spirit (demon) of Death moves in and brings with him other spirits with one common goal: to take a life. To Deny God the joy of that child. I don't know her circumstances, but kids these days are in a war for their very lives. It's not all puppies & kittens. Music and internet are not as helpful to some people. We need to turn our parental Instincts to know when a child is slipping away into a darker world.

    To me, Death looked like a warm fuzzy blanket that would protect me from harsh realities. I found it in pills and liquor. My friends would sleep on the floor outside my bathroom where I fled to be alone; because they were afraid I would OD.

    Satan is a hunter of Souls. Christian parents even, need to be in tune to that child. Pray, FAST, and be well informed about Spiritual Warfare. Listen to Derek Prince on YouTube. Type in: spiritual warfare. He uses art sometimes to get his points across, stronger. Yes. Some demons look like that. One night I turned my head and saw an apparition, that was a 6 ft tall refrigerator shaped thing with branches, in the bedroom closet. I was saved by that time, and I bound and cast it out and forbid it's return! In Jesus Name! Get loud.

    To the Christian who knows spiritual warfare; we can make those things leave. You can surround the child with prayer and protection. YOU ask the Holy Spirit for the GIFT of discerning of spirits. Google that. If you don't think music is Dark; listen to Tool.

    Read the lyrics. Satan WAS an archangel of music. Still is. Learn these things and minister to kids and their parents. Ask Jesus; Ask Holy Spirit to teach you WAR. Stay in touch.

  • Chris - In Reply on Hebrews 12 - 5 years ago
    Page 3.

    You quoted Heb chaps 6 & 12, so to clarify only these portions to you. Heb 6:4-6 speaks of those who turn their backs to God having appeared to be Christians in their midst. They showed all the signs of spirituality, joined in fellowship, received the Word, but ultimately refused God & turned their backs to Him. To these, the Writer says, that Christ can't be crucified a second time (i.e. Christ's death can't be made a mockery every time one chooses to repent for salvation) & they will find no place for repentance. BUT the writer goes on to say in verse 9: "BUT beloved, we are persuaded better things of you", inferring that those who were genuine believers in that Fellowship, wouldn't go the way of those who turn their backs to God & whose (genuine) salvation was clear & secure. So, are you in this position? From reading your comment, I see you yearning for assurance of your salvation, not as these folk in vv 4-6 who were willing to give God away for their own ends.

    Heb 12:16,17: this speaks of Esau's rejection & cannot apply to you or me, as any sincere repentance for his foolish act was useless because he could never retrieve the blessing already given to Jacob by Isaac. It was a physical matter that changed the course of history. We have all foolishly refused Christ at some point, but unlike Esau's situation of rejection, we have a longing, waiting God Who wants to secure our cleansing, our new relationship with the Godhead & give us a hope & a future that can never be taken away: Jn 6:37 "All that the Father giveth me SHALL come to me; and him that cometh to me I WILL IN NO WISE cast out".

    So, it is so important for you to be assured & confident in the gift of salvation given in spite of how you may feel. To continue to assure our hearts & to oppose what Satan wants to do & take away our joy, we must continue to study the Word, rightly dividing it, & focussing on the specific words that give us the assurance of His Love & our faith."( Heb 3:14).
