God may be telling you to do something about this situation.

Perhaps you should show them the way to God.

You can take them to Sunday School.

You can do some research and find games and coloring for them to do. God will help their minds if you pray to God. Only He will know what will spark the beginning of their interest and curiosity. You supply the SPARK.

Many have said the the end of time is soon. We should live with the Lird God in our lives and not always be thinking about the end is near.

God should be kept close always.

We should be praying for those in authority.

That they keep their feet on the correct path. Need they not be concerned as to their reputation so much as to what Our Lord is telling them to do.

Keep straight their path as God wishes and the only way to know is through Prayer.

Teboho,

I would just like to touch on the sin issue. Something to consider when asking about what is sin and what is not is that in Romans 14:23, it says for whatsoever is not of faith is sin. That is a powerful statement. Anything that is not of faith is sin. And since the literal definition of the word faith means persuasion, anything that is not prompted by God's Spirit is sin. It is God's Spirit in us that persuades us to do the things that are pleasing to Him. That's what it is saying. That's what faith is.

Faith is the persuasion and leading of God's Spirit. And anything that is not of faith is sin. So there's your definition. So whatever it is, ask yourself if God's Spirit is persuading you to do that. If it's not His Spirit persuading you, then it is sin. That's just something we have to ask ourselves, no matter what it is we are partaking of. It's a personal relationship between you and Jesus Christ. What is He persuading you to do? Do that. Anything else is sin!

Why do some churches interpret the New Testament without the Old Testament and create modern doctrines that are in error? They put Paul and Jesus against God and the prophets. That is division.

Good evening Mr. Mulenga! How do you enjoy reading the Bible if you don't have one? I mean, where are you enjoying your reading from? Just asking!

what are 21 things in the bible that men could not do?

Joseph,

1 Corinthians 10:3, John 6:27, John 6:51, 1 Peter 2:2, Hebrews 5:12-14 are just a few of many places. In John 4:32, after Jesus' disciples brought Him physical food, Jesus said "I have meat to eat that ye know not of."

I don't know if you have ever experienced this before, but Christians have somewhat many times, where you are physically hungry, and you are physically tired, but then in some way, shape, or form, God ministers through you to someone else, or from someone else to you, and whatever physical hunger you have or physical thirst you have, it doesn't make any difference. That physical hunger or physical thirst somehow just disappears!

The spiritual food is contentment in and of itself. You are not as hungry as you used to be or as starved as you used to be. Now what is interesting in John Chapter 4 is that the woman left her waterpot behind. Jesus said you just brought physical food from the city, but I have food to eat that you know not of. He ministered God's word to this woman.

I find it interesting that 11 of these 12 names are written in Revelation 7:5-8 where God seals their foreheads.

Manasses instead of Dan.

1. No. Jesus made wine; just don't get drunk and don't use it to tempt or cause others to stumble.

2. No.

3. If we're actively following Jesus then we're covered by grace and have hope for eternal life in heaven. We should obey God's laws, but since all are imperfect sinners we are covered by grace when we sin. The law still applies, but is fulfilled in that we aren't subject to its original punishment of death, but life with Jesus. James 2 and Romans 6 explain this.

Marie,

The first 9 verses of 2 Timothy Chapter 3 gives us a description of the last days. We have been in the last days for a long time now, since Paul's day. The last days are not to be taken as meaning the tribulation period, even though the tribulation period is included in the last days. Paul was very compelled in his letters to speak about the apostasy of the last days.

He believed the apostasy was starting in his day. And we are still in those last days. The last days began in Acts Chapter 2 at the coming of the Holy Spirit, and they will end at the end of the Tribulation Period. We are in the last days deeper now than in Paul's day. And again, Paul believed the apostasy was in his day. And we see all these things happening in and amongst the church.

A study of the description of the last days shows us two things. First, we see the characteristic of people in the last days in Verses 1 through 5, and then the condition of people in the last days in Verses 6 through 9. These are people that are in the church, as Verse 5 tells us. They are not just in it, but among the believers. These are the things that are happening in and among the church even today. These are people who have a form of godliness but reject and deny the power thereof.

One thing that everyone seems to miss when talking about plants and fruits is that Gen 1:29 states that only seeds bearing plants and fruits with seeds are for food. Which implies that if the fruit has no seed we shall not eat.

The book of Genesis is one cohesive book and has always been. So, unless you provide evidence of how there's 2 creation accounts I of course don't believe it. So far you cited 2 verses which weren't evidence and you said there's 2 chapters, which aren't evidence either. Is that your only evidence? A chapter break has nothing to do with a different account in Genesis nor any other book, and chapter and verse breaks were in the original scrolls, but added later to make it easier to read. I also guessed as to what possibly could have been an assumption in order to come to such a conclusion, but you didn't elaborate on why you assume what you do. God bless.

Psalms 113:3 "From the rising of the Sun unto the going down of the same the Lord's name is to be Praise". The Lord demands Praise. His name should be Praised from east to west, all day long, no matter where we are. If you find yourselve in a place where you cannot Praise the Lord, may be you do not belong there. "Believe that greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the World".

Whether they are spoken of separately or combined, the "Jews" ( 2 Kings 16:6), the "Gentiles" ( Genesis 10:5), and the "church of God" ( 1 Corinthians 1:2) make up the three-fold subject matter of the word of God. Every part of the Bible is, in general, written concerning one of these three classes or divisions of persons. Therefore, what is written needs to be appropriately interpreted and applied to the class or division of people to which it was written for!

The misappropriation of these three classes of people; "Jews," "Gentiles," and the "church" of God, into Scripture where they do not belong is one of the foremost reasons why the word of God is misunderstood, look at Galatians 1:13, Ephesians 1:22, 5:23, Philippians 3:6, Colossians 1:24.

The Septuagint: The oldest translation of the Hebrew Bible in existence. It was made into popular Greek in Alexandria, Egypt the third or second century B.C.

The Targum of Onkelos; a Chaldee or Biblically Aramaic paraphrase of the Pentateuch, possibly written in the 1st or 2nd century A.D. in Babylonia.

Our English Concordances are merely dictionaries of every word of the Bible; translated from those particular languages, for our help.

We must always rightly divide the Word of God as to its subject matter. The question must always be asked when reading or studying the word of God; "Concerning whom is this particular Scripture written to or about?" There is no doubt that every word from Genesis to Revelations was written for all people to read, study, learn, understand, love, and have faith in; but to believe that every word in the Bible is written directly to all people in all time, or that it concerns only us in particular is an error that will lead to puzzlement and frustration when trying to comprehend the word of God, look at Romans 15:4, 1 Corinthians 10:11.



When it comes to the topic of "mankind," God has simplified for the student as to whom the general "subject matter" being spoken of throughout It concerns. Scripture informs us that there are three distinct classes or divisions of persons that the word of God addresses. These three classes collectively account for all of mankind. The divisions of persons are plainly given to us in the First Letter written by Paul to the Corinthians;

( 1 Corinthians 10:32)

Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God.

Thank you for your reply.

You are correct; the (Hebrew) translation of the word "Gentile" is the word "goy." However, from the definition given below from Strong's Concordance it clearly states the word "FOREIGN."

Hebrew definition;

(#1471) goy, go-ee- a foreign nation; hence, a gentile; also (fig.) a troop of animals, or a flight of locusts:- Gentile / heathen / nation / people.

In addition, the Greek definition, which you correctly defined as "ethnos" leaves no room for error concerning the topic we are discussing.

Greek definition;

"Gentiles"(#1484) ethnos, eth-nos- a race (as of the same habit), i.e. a tribe; spec. a foreign (non-Jewish) one (usually by impl. pagan):- Gentile / heathen / nation / people.

The name "Gentiles" was given by God to all people that were considered foreign to the Jews, to their lineage, and to the covenant relationship they enjoyed with the Lord. They are collectively defined as any foreign nation in relation to the nation of Israel. The first occurrence of the word "Gentiles" is found in ( Gen 10:5), and concerns the spreading forth of the offspring of the sons of Noah into "their lands;" referring to the lands of the "Gentiles."

Abraham is the father of many NATIONS, because GOD SAID that through him, ALL nations would be blessed! Not just (future) nation of Israel.

The English speaking publishing houses of North America have no control or influence over the ORIGINAL words of God that we have locked in place. The Hebrew and Chaldean words of the Old Testament and the Greek words of the New Testament have been preserved for thousands of years through ancient documents such as:

The Masoretec Text- The authoritative Hebrew text of the Jewish Bible.

The Samaritan Pentateuch, which is a translation of the Torah into Aramaic. It is written in the Samaritan alphabet, which is supposed to be an ancient form of Hebrew, and is believed to have come down from the Ten Tribes as early as the 4th century B.C.

comments about the Origination of Christ. It was Mary that came thru the bloodline of David the tribe of Judah but not Christ as JESUS WAS NOT OF THIS WORLD he told the Jews you are of this WORLD but i am not of this world you are from beneath i am from above. Jesus was the living Word made flesh and blood . Had he been from Mans seed he wd have carried the stain and the spot of adam and cd NOT have been the lamb of God without spot meaning the spot of adam Jesus asked the pharisees what think ye of Christ whos seed is he they replied Davids seed ( the tribe of judah ) then answered Jesus if David calls him lord how can he be his son ( his seed etc He was Davids lord ) heavenly not of this earth. But many did call him the son of david only b/c David was a type of Christ and his son was the Solomon which means comforter the H.G. WHICH IS THE SON OF CHRIST HIS OFFSPRING VIA HIS SEED ETC THE LIVING WORD. To whom the WORD came it made them Gods thus Christ can reproduce after the God kind spirit,thats y he is saying that which is born of the spirit is spirit thats God the comforter the H.G. It was the father that made this law that everything has to reproduce after its kind, but we see that Christ can reproduce after Gods kind Spirit. Thats y Jesus refers to the h.g as the Promise he is the multiplIcation of CHRIST IN US VIA HIS SEED THE WORD. Thats y he is saying to whom the word came it made them Gods,he is able to reproduce God in humanity via his seed and this cannot be refuted as Jesus said the scripture cannot be broken. gb

Please pray for my parents through their salvation. Like it mentioned in the bible whatever you ask in prayers, will be answered of we believe and have faith. I am praying over his blessings and guidance as well. God bless you brothers and sisters in Christ. End times are near and I know for sure Jesus is coming soon.

Its Happening and we are entering into the beginning of these perilous times,it will only get worse. Bracing for the most difficult,stressful times too come.

The scriptures are the infallible word of God. It is inspired and written by Holy men who were chosen and moved spiritually to reveal Gods word. I rest my whole faith my whole being on His word. This is more than a book. In it you will find eternal life! You will find salvation in no other than the prophecy and death and Resurrection found in the history of the salvation of mankind through the Son of God.

How can we grow? How can we find the path? Believing and living the gospel. Sanctification, being born again. How can these things be? Who will deliver me from this corruption ,this body of death? O wretched man that I am! AH! come to the living water found in your redeemer! Come to the place of peace and rest found in no other! A living water rising endlessly unto eternal life. Lead us beside the still waters, show us the way unto the father. Help us, for Jesus sake.

Adam,

I believe there are two accounts of creation because of the information given to me by God in Genesis chapter 1 and Genesis chapter 2. In addition, I have provided Scripture to add weight to what is being proposed.

Are you sure you read the three pages of information sent to you concerning the various subjects conversed upon? You commented on only one portion. Any question or comment concerning the Scripture used to support my point of view?

I understand your general vs. specific remark concerning some hypothetical person being called a liar or hypocrite for not giving the complete story at the beginning. It is strange, as I would call someone neither a hypocrite nor a liar for generally informing me of a car accident.

If you do not agree with a statement concerning Scripture, show me my error through Scripture, rather than offer some random explanation of what I might be thinking, give no Scripture to back up your statement, and answer none of the questions presented to you.

To answer your questions;

God only created one earth and one heaven; but three separate and distinct heaven and earth AGES ( 2 Peter 3:5, 6, 13).

God only created one light, the sun; the moon is only a reflection of that light.

Jim, hang on to the LORD GOD Almighty the world is going through a shaking right now and he is our rock.He will never leave you nor forsake you.And the angels are singing,right now, that you have come back into the kingdom.

No, in my experience it is making provision for sin or leading to a falling away from Godly pursuits. Not worth it!
