I you're not sure if Christians can EAT MEAT or GET MARRIED, then you will be much enlightened to read, 1 Timothy 4:3,

Society will forbid people to marry, and commanding to abstain from eating meats.

I highly recommend that you read all of 1 Timothy chapter 4, because it concerns what is happening in the last days, obviously. SOCIETY will try to dictate what people should do or not do.

Insane stuff, like teach human anatomy and sexuality to 6 yr old small children!!! Teach homosexuality and lesbianism to public school children who have no clue what that is. Age appropriate, people!

iF those children have attained accountability (knowing good versus evil) and they decide to jump on that bandwagon ? WHO is going to tell them that choices can send them to hell.

Have a godly opinion about this and tell SOCIETY, through your American blood purchased right to VOTE .... Not My Child!!!

City powers are not telling us what to do; it's the Antichrist crowd screaming for more blood. On the phone 24/7 logging in complaints. Get involved. Make your own calls.

Selah. (Pause and think on these things)

I read that Moab doesn't have mountains, but 'rolling hills'. But in case, you're referring to Mt. Seir which is in Edom, then it is the mountainous region of Edom, between the Dead Sea & Gulf of Aqaba.

However, if you actually mean Moab, Utah, I further read that it does have mountains (La Sal mountains) and great lakes, very good for trout fishing.

Very true, GG, very true. Trouble follows us everywhere in the path of life. But the Scripture reminds us that "In His Presence is fullness of joy, at His right Hand there are pleasures for evermore" ( Ps 16:11). We long for the day to be released from our earthly limitations & confinements & attain Heaven & glorification with our Saviour ( Rom 8:17-23).

It just causes conflicts when people want to say Jesus's name is something other than, Jesus. All through scripture He does have other names (a 100 or more). I could list them but I'm not going to. You do it; from Genesis to Revelation.

I will adore to see that list.

I just checked on YouTube, that has Alexander Scourby reading King James Version scripture.

What a wonderful way to relax and listen to the Word of God.

I pray for the salvation and deliverance of my husband and son. That they will begin to have a hunger to want to know Christ and invite Him into their lives, so that they could live for Him. I also pray that my youngest daughter will acknowledge that God is not pleased with her living arrangement and that she will move back home. I pray that God will help me to be obedient to Him and to use the gift that he has in store for me, so that I can walk in my purpose. Thank you for praying for me.

LGSpears, as with you, I find this subject fascinating & even though measurements are given in Rev 21, we have to assume that with our limited knowledge with how measurements were actually derived in those days, some errors will be there. For example, 1 (US) Furlong = 660 ft. So using 582 ft as you have done, isn't a great deviation from whatever was originally considered, however it does remind us that are musings over these facts can only at best be speculative, even to the actual construction dimensions of the city.

However, I do see the measurements given are for the New Jerusalem & not the New Heaven. You might be seeing this as one & the same but I understand that the "first heaven & the first earth" as applying to the present earth & sky (which may include objects found in inner or deep space), & not to the place of God's Abode.

Re: the dimensions of the city. Agreed, that length, breadth & height are equal, but I seem to read in v 16, that only measurement of one of the equal sides was taken (i.e. 12,000 furlongs = 1,500 miles). If this is the case, then we have 144,000 sq furlongs = 18,000 sq miles of land area & not including the 1,500 miles of vertical measurement of one side. Or is this a misunderstanding on my part? I won't even try to contemplate what the wall would appear like as a result!

And another interesting feature in all this, which you no doubt would have observed, is the use of the figure '12' as the cardinal number seen in Revelation (e.g. 7:4-8; 12:1; 14:1,3; 21; 22:2) as well as its appearance in other Scriptures (e.g. 12 disciples, etc.). How does this all figure out in God's Design & Plan?

I just did a quick Google on cults that teach that god is a woman. It comes from Europe. You can read this on Wikipedia.

Ariana Grande has a perverted painting promoting the same idea with a new CD.

That's what cults do. They promote some new outrageous thing in hopes of making some fast money on the suffering of others who are willing to buy into anything new.

I briefly saw that there's another one saying god is female and male.

I guess Satan thinks he can gather all the weak-minded fools to populate hell. He doesn't care who he hurts: he just hates God.

We have a responsibility to google these things and warn others.

I have no clue what her deal is...Satanic?

I rebuked her.

this site really challenges ones memory, so helpful and encourages me to stay in GODS HOLY WORD1

Is James 4:5 "The spirit" refer to The Holy Spirit or man's spirit?

and how "lusteth to envy" is to be interpreted?

Hi Chris,you said that our Heaven Father gives us all that David received,I believe that as well.But is He giving us far more?He gave us a sure salvation through His Unique Son.Don,t you think that David was granted salvation through that same Unique Son,as well as us?David was after GOD,S own heart, he was GOD,S choice.I believe that David was saved by the same Jesus that saved Me.God graciously promised that one day Christ would come into the world as a Lamb foreordained before the foundation of the world( 1 peter 1:19-20)I think will bring clarity to what i,m trying to say.By faith Abraham was credited as righteousness.all who has faith in Abraham is Abraham,s children.Grace and truth came by JESUS CHRIST.Jesus did say;before Abraham was, I AM.He is the same savior.GOD our savior,Jesus Christ our LORD and savior,the redeemer and keeper of our souls.What a mystery!

Admin this SC is teaching Jesus is female why is this approved?

"The truth is, Jesus is our Eternal Mother, not our everlasting Father."

"The Woman Christ is the only sacrifice acceptable to God the Father. Let's see who that perfect offering is:"

Yes, concerning friend who has an homosexual lifestyle. God is willing to forgive all sin if one is willing turn and go Gods way. Done except the commits, like there is no use. First see if she desire to change. If so lead her to the new birth. This will be a faith walk so don't look on her natural but look at her spiritually.

Because it could be a stronghold, so we need to take on the long suffering with God. I pray for a good report

Does Moab have mountains?

Pray that Jason would believe in Jesus as his Savior and Lord.

There are plenty of people coming into Prayer Request room that could use some ministry. Take all that frustration with the virus conversations and comfort Christians who are hurting.

Hey Anthony,a lot of Bible scholars suggest you start in 1st John. John MacArthur suggest you read it for 30 days,then go to the Book of John.I hope this helps.

Why are Jews the chosen people?

They hated Gods Teaching.

When the trumpet blows are they going to hear it and be caught up in the rapture?

What about people that don't get baptized?

Everybody isn't going to Heaven?

I just want to listen to the reading of

1 Sam 1-31

Well said Chris. God looks upon the hearts of men. It is hard for people of color,but it also hard for others as well. It is through these trials that God can perfect us,mold us , show us who He truly is. We must go through these trials and hardships but we must allow The Lord to guide us through.Remember friend, " trouble don't last always! "

Grace - Q: Did Jesus take the Kingdom of God from the Jews?

A: Matthew 21:43 - Therefore say I (Jesus speaking to the Jews) unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. So which language was the New Testament written in? GREEK.

Why? King James Bible book of John 5:16 - And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day. It was not the Romans who troubled Jesus.

Jesus had it with their man made rules in Matthew 23:15 - Jesus speaks: Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees (Jews) , hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. 2X the child of Hell does not sound very nice.

no one can prove to me from the Bible alone that the family of Jesus called him Yeshua.

Besides Rabbis called Jesus YESHU which is a curse meaning may his name be blotted out.

Luke Chapter 1

:26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name [was] Mary.

28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.

30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

(Angel Gabriel gave JESUS his name from the Lord)

so what scriptural authority does anyone have to call him YESHUa?

32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

I believe the Bible is right Jesus is not in error.

I greatly appreciate the thoughtful reply by Chris regarding the size of our New Heaven. I have looked more carefully at Rev. 21: vs 12, 16 & 17 & conclude the following: Vs. 12 plainly states, "And (the new heaven) had a wall GREAT and HIGH ----"; Vs. 16 last part says "The Length and the Breadth AND the Height of it are Equal;" then going to the first part it says "And the city lieth foursquare and thus the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, 12,000 furlongs (one furlong = 582 ft.).

SO, Vs. 12 says the New Heaven would have both a great & high wall + Vs. 16 says the lg., breadth (width) & ht. of the walls are equal. These two statements rule out using the 144 cubit (210 ft.) measure for the height of the wall but instead limit it to the thickness; which does make sense because during this time period city walls where described by their heigth & thickness + their composition (for this wall it is jasper).

Now one has to both read & think carefully. The first of Vs. 16 says the city is foursquare ( laid out in a square) with length = breadth/width and he measured the city with a reed and it was 12,000 furlongs. Now the question here is, what is 12,000 furlongs describing? One missing piece of info now is the perimeter around the city, which is provided by the stated 12,000 furlong measurement. Since the city is a square each wall must be 3,000 furlongs in lg. Then from the last portion of Vs. 16, we can conclude that since the lg., breadth and ht. are equal, that the ht. of the walls are also 3,000 furlongs or 1,746,000 feet or 331 miles.

The above generates 2 interesting questions about the walls. The obvious first question is, why are the walls so high? How can a wall be that high and only 210 ft. thick, especially when you consider that it is made mainly of "jasper"(jasper is a brittle stone used for decrative objects).

The above indicates that heaven should cover about 141,000 sq. miles or about 1/2 of Texas.

keep holding on, He knows about it.

Comment* that was helpful. am a new convert, that is why i find it hard to understand certain things. but i know God Wil Help Me Interprete
