This is good

i love it this should all be in a bible king james arrive from the dead and start working.

The Bible tells us in so many ways that,"God is love." God is also perfect. Perfect love casteth out fear. God casts out fear and will cut the ties that it holds on your heart if you'll but let Him. You've got to keep trusting God no matter how you feel because Faith cannot be summed up into a feeling, Faith will keep trusting even when you can't feel or see God. The teacher is always quiet during the test but, the teacher also doesn't leave the room.

God is not mocked ! A great lesson to those that do !

I want to learn more about the bible

Hell is full of people that refuse Gods love and persist in sinning . There is no place for them with God , God hates sin more than any of us could image .

Psalm 65.4

Blessed is the man whom thou chooses , and causest to approach unto thee , that he may dwell in they courts : we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house , even of thy Holy temple .

Jesus also said no man can come unto me except God draws him .

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom .

Prayerfully request Biblical instruction and the will of God, that sanctions, or not, whether women can become ordained pastors, ministers, preachers...

Thank you....

Comments about the trinity the Godhead remember in the ARK of the Covenent in the MOST HOLY PLACE was the Father between the 2 Churibim of GLORY thus we see 3 and God wd not share his Glory with the 2 Churibim if they were not God . Son and GRANSON the candle stick was made like a vine with branches impling multiplication a posterity, the nation of ISRAEL. SYMBOLIC OF AN ISRAEL OF GOD. Abraham dwelt in tents with Issac and Jacob son and granson and thats what Abraham means exaulted FATHER thats y God told Moses that his name was Abraham Issac, and Jacob. And my memorial to ALL generations . We see this Trinity scenario ALL thru the bible ,Even the Davidic kingdom was a Trinity Jesse david and solomon Father Son and Granson And JESUS says he was the root and the offspring of DAVID He was comparing his kingdom to Davids kingdom as the scriptures says the House of DAVID will be as the House of God. When God told Moses that his name was abraham issac and Jacob it was prophetic that there is gonna be an Israel of GOD, the multiplication of very God in humanity via this father son and Granson scenario. Its God himself that wants a POSTERITY Jesus was just his 1st born of many brethren . And the FATHER instructs ALL the ANGELS TO WORSHIP HIS Son simply b/c he was an absolute Son, God the SON. The 12 tribes knew that Abraham Issac and Jacob were the 1 singular FATHER of ISRAEL Rememeber they were 3 distinct beings. Without this Abrahamic Trinity there cd not have have been the nation of Israel remember that. Thats y God told Moses that his name was Abraham Issac n Jacob. Thus there is a heavenly trinity that is gonna result in an Israel of God, I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven thus an Israel of God,That which is born of the spirit is Spirit thats the H.G. th Israel of God the multiplcation of very GOD IN US. That was when God swore by his self thus it cannot be refuted neva. Solomon th wisest man in the O.T. said a 3 ply CORD is not easily broken TRUTH.

No Judas is not in Heaven. Did Judas have a relationship with God just because he followed Jesus and hung around Him? This relationship must occur on a Spiritual level to separate a person from the world. Not talking about leaving the world, but worldly things. Judas managed the money for the disciples. He was to give to the poor and buy food for them. This role is not by coincidence. Jesus used this to demonstrate that Judas' ties to this kept him with a worldly vision for Jesus and not understanding his need for a Spiritual relationship with The Father.

"You were the anointed cherub who covers,

And I placed you there.

You were on the holy mountain of God;

You walked in the midst of the stones of fire.

You were blameless in your ways

From the day you were created

Until unrighteousness was found in you.

By the abundance of your trade

You were internally filled with violence,

And you sinned;

Therefore I have cast you as profane

From the mountain of God.

And I have destroyed you, O covering cherub,

From the midst of the stones of fire."

Ezekiel 28:14-16 (NASB)

The birthright meant nothing to Esau. He traded it for a bowl of lovely venison stew? Soup?

Rebekah planned it and made Jacob help her.

The Bible says that GOD hated Esau for it.

Afterwards, Esau chased Jacob all over trying to get the birthright back.

Comment: This is the only scripture in the Bible where it says God hated someone.

This is Old Testament. Also, the bloodline of Jesus was traveling through Jacob.

As we read through Matthew we continue to see Jesus point to a separation from the world. All that He speaks of is Spiritual living in a relationship to The Father. This Spiritual living can only be given of The Holy Spirit dwelling within us which cannot happen without a belief in Christ Jesus. Pray therefore The Father strengthen our belief, reliance and forgiveness in Christ Jesus for our wrongdoings & thoughts and that The Father not take away The Holy Spirit from us, but be Merciful. And in The Mercy The Father extends to us, we must extend to our Mother, Father, Brother & Sister. Be at Peace in Christ and secure that The Holy Spirit is dwelling within you to guide, convict and Bless your life in following Christ. For this is the preparation we need to become a perfect bride in total church for Christ Jesus to marry so we too become as One with Him; just as He, The Father and Holy Spirit are ONE.

Book of Joel, chapter 1

8 Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth for the husband of her youth.

9 The meat offering and the drink offering is cut off from the house of the LORD; the priests, the LORD'S ministers, mourn.

10 The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth.

11 Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished.

12 The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.

13 Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God.

14 Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land into the house of the LORD your God, and cry unto the LORD,

15 Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.

Pleased pray for Debra Hendrix, she has cancer which has metastasis to several organs of her body. She needs a total healing in her body. Thank you

All the red letters are the words of Jesus.

He had been crucified and then resurrected to life again, before the Book of Revelation. That's why the Book of Acts and Revelation have those red letters. Jesus is alive.

Nobody can dispute with the red letters.

All the Apostles (disciples Jesus traveled with) knew they would be killed eventually.

Except Apostle John. They dumped him on a little island to die alone. But first he wrote the Book of Revelation. :D

When I was a new Christian, I would touch the red letters as I read them. Funny huh?

We are supposed to be examples of Christ, and letting the Light shine through us,because people are watching our actions in our everyday living.

Please keep me in your Prayers today and May GOD bless those that pray for others

Wayne, if your car was going 80 mph down the road towards a bridge, in a flash flood

But the bridge just washed away

Wouldn't you want someone to try and wave some flares to try and stop you from sudden death ??

Should I park my car and just watch people pile up on each other as cars wash downstream??

It is their fault they were driving too fast in the rain...texting and checking email.

You know what else? NO ONE gets to be someone else's choice or conscience!!

All this big honking SOLIDARITY MOVEMENT amongst 20-30 yr old kids is: the last cycle of generational curses. It says the children will eat their parents. If that means they're going to eat all the food, eat the parents and move out of the basement into the house again....

It's good us old foggies are going up in the Rapture soon, huh?

Nothing will stop Antichrist from FORCING you to take take The Mark of the Beast. Force you to bow down on one knee to Worship Him and the False Prophet. He's not your friend.

We reach out to those people in Romans Chapter 1, the Bible describes plainly: Men who reject the natural use of women; and women who do the same. People burning up with lusts they cannot control.

We know that God loves everyone. We love you too, but we have to tell you that you need to come to Jesus to be rescued. Ask any questions you need answers to. Read John chapter 3. This is the hazard flare that's being waved to warn you. Is there a little tug on your heart right now? That's Him! He's calling you. Knocking on the door of your heart. Ask him in. He's real. Alive.

Every time you say no; your heart hardens. Till you don't even hear Him calling you anymore. Keep coming back here. We love you. I love you because I know Jesus loves you. He died, so you can live.

Midhael

I've never seen requirements for Christian funerals.

Jesus was put in a borrowed tomb

Revelation 20:13

And the sea gave up the dead which were in it;

and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

If God knows where all the bodies are, underneath the waters,

He will be able to collect our ashes. He's God. He made everyone who ever lived.

With God all things are possible.

Be at peace in your heart.

God is a consuming fire. He cannot look upon sin. That's why Jesus had to bridge the gap with His sacrifice; once, and for all.

For God so loved the world ( John 3).

I find a lot of good used books at

AbeBooks dot com. Try to find one that's in the USA. Blessings on your search.

Yes, all people of any age have the freewill to do anything they want and do the sickest, most evil, vile sins imagineable. But you can't pursue evil and genuinely follow Jesus and expect to go to heaven, so those who pursue evil will go to hell. People reading the Bible are usually trying to learn about God and follow Jesus try to avoid sin which is different than what you describe. Romans 1:25-27

Shirley, I gave this explanation below verbatim about a month ago to someone else, so I've copied it here for you to consider:

"The Bible doesn't give us any more details about Theophilus, the recipient of Luke's two 'manuscripts' ( Luke 1:3 & Acts 1:1). There have been speculations about this man, so I'll share here what I've researched about him:

a. he may have been a Jew from Alexandria, Egypt, to which John Wesley also attests.

b. a Roman official; because of the use of "O Theophilus" & "most excellent Theophilus", denoting someone of high rank in the Empire.

c. just an honorary title, since Theophilus (Theophilos) means "friend of God", so Luke wrote generally to all who came under that category. I can't subscribe to this, as it appears to me that Luke was addressing a particular person rather than anyone.

d. Paul's lawyer, since some of his expressions are used in law. Words such as 'eye witnesses, account & infallible proofs' are given in support.

e. the High Priest of the Temple at that time, Theophilus ben Ananus, also brother-in-law to Caiaphas - no doubt a handy connection to have.

So take your pick! Best to leave him just as a name & focus on the important accounts that Luke gives us to learn from."

Julie, I don't think there is any such verse in the Bible. Psalm 127:3 says, "children are an heritage of the LORD". The word in Hebrew can signify a "gift or a possession" from the Lord. Then in 1 Samuel 1:11, Hannah, who was once barren but God enabled her because of her vow to Him, gave her a son whom she called Samuel. She then gave him back to the Lord in accordance with her vow & we know that he was a mighty prophet used by the Lord.

Pastors sometimes refer to this account in the Bible when offering up a child in a Dedication ceremony, as when the child's parents dedicate the little one gifted to them by the Lord, back to Him for His safe-keeping & service. But we know that not only children but all of us have to one day return to the Lord Who made us & give account. So in that sense we all are placed on this Earth for a short time, to enjoy her blessings & the Lord Who made it all for our sake, & then one day we will return to our Maker.

Turning away from sins is healing. He sent his word and healed them.

The Lord's words are spirit and life.

Isaiah 45:5-7 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: 6That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. 7I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

Sandra, this matter of homosexuality has been condemned by God throughout the Scriptures. Even before God gave the Law to Israel, which included this matter ( Leviticus 18:22 & verse 23 for bestiality), God had pronounced judgement against Sodom & Gomorrah (Genesis chapters 18 & 19) for their many wicked deeds which included homosexuality. Then in the New Testament of the Bible ( 1 Corinthians 6:9,10), the apostle Paul speaks of the many who can never enter God's Kingdom. But if these people acknowledge that what they do, is sin against God & sincerely repent & turn away from it, then they can truly be forgiven & brought into a holy relationship with God.

As in generations gone by, much of what the Bible calls SIN, is regarded by people today as of no consequence. So if engaging in homosexual activities gives someone happiness & companionship then why should anyone condemn them, is what they say. But God Who made us, made us male & female & that this union within marriage would reflect God's plan for mankind & be the means of a loving, fruitful relationship that would produce offspring as a result of that love. Any departure from this plan is wrong & God will deal with all those that do it.

So what about the homosexual saying that that is how I am from birth? Or he becomes one out of his choice or because of a devastating upbringing? Then what about the kleptomaniac who can't help but steal or the prolific liar & deceiver who gives no second thought to his sin? All this is sin & must be acknowledged as such & to be turned away from. Yes, it will be hard for these to exercise discipline & do what is necessary to depart from evil, but when one turns to Jesus & is made new, God's Power will rest upon him & he can be healed.

When I see a homosexual, I see a person whom God loves & longs that he turn away from his wickedness. No sin is too great that Christ's Sacrifice for them can't fully atone for. But we need to acknowledge it first & the world refuses to do so.

Submit to God and Resist the devil.
