  • Daniel Mart - 1 year ago
    He's now running a fever.

    My dad is no longer talking, and he is extremely weak.

    His blood pressure is extremely low, as is his oxygen intake, and I pray to Jesus, St Michael, St Raphael & St Bernadette.

    Thank you God for bathing us in the blood of Christ.

    ********

    I belong to a local Episcopal church in Cupertino, California. I pray that everyone

    seeing this message reads it with their deepest intentions, and that it is URGENTLY shared widely; with church groups and the like.

    My name is Daniel Mart. My dad, Eric Richard Mart, is not a believer. During the fall of 2021, he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Although my dads kidney numbers were found to be perfect (thank the Good Lord), he remains extremely sick, which is very very concerning. When awake, he is like a zombie, and his appetite is still poor. He is extremely extremely weak. Often times, he is confused, and he has trouble communicating.

    And he has started to need oxygen.

    I am, TBH, quite concerned. He has been taken taken off chemo; as of now, there is nothing to stop the tumor growth.

    He is extremely close to passing away.

    Lord, you are I truly, truly believe the greatest physician of them all. I command the cancer in my dads body to leave; forbid cancer cells in dads body to multiply, in Jesus name. I command existing cancer cells in his body to die; the spirits of death & fear in him to leave, in Jesus name

    I ask that the Lord come with His wonderful healing presence, and complete the healing and work His glory in my dads body, in Jesus name.

    I ask that the Holy Spirit come to fill and encourage my dad, and to minister to him, in Jesus name. Please protect him, Lord, and heal him.

    I realize that I am not the best Christian; far from it, actually.

    Today, right now, I repent of all my sins.

    My extreme pure OCD - sexual OCD, TBB - and depression - at times quite manic, with bipolar - makes everything so entirely challenging; many a time have I slipped.

    KD,

    The Book of Jasher is an extra biblical book that is not included in the Bible. It is quoted in both Joshua and 2 Samuel. It mostly covers the first five books of the Bible and ends with Joshua's death. the original and authentic Book of Jasher has been lost since ancient times. The Book of Jasher inprint to day was created in the 1700's and is most likely fraudulent. It includes statements that go against what the Bible says.

    Sorry I'm late on my response I haven't been on here for a while working little too much lol

    Yes you are correct The word rapture does not occur in the Bible but The term comes from a Latin word meaning "a carrying off, a transport, or a snatching away." The concept of the "carrying off"the church is clearly taught in Scripture.

    God "snatches away" all believers from the earth in order to make way for His righteous judgment to be poured out on the earth during the tribulation period. The rapture is described primarily in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 and 1 Corinthians 15:50-54. God will resurrect all believers who have died, give them glorified bodies, and take them from the earth, along with all living believers, who will also be given glorified bodies at that time. "For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever" ( 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17).

    I would advise you to follow the words of Jesus in Matthew 28:19 and disregard the churches that teach otherwise.

    But, if you are aware of these churches that teach differently than what is written in Matthew 28:19, go to them amd

    share with them the truth.

    Yes we are assigned to wrath...As Jesus said every sinner will have his part in the lake of fire....Which is his baptism of the H.G. and FIRE....The only way his vengence ( his wrath ) can be satisfied is by the lake of fire....His wrath is his love whom the lord loveth he chastens.... Hebrews 12 :8...If ye be without chastisement then are ye bastards and not sons....But we cannot tell ppl we are not assigned to wrath....When ye say things like that you are in essence saying we don't need his baptism of the H.G. AND FIRE...Nor his lake of fire....Jesus said every sinner MUST have his part in the lake of FIRE....Which is his baptism of the H.G. and fire.....Then and only then are we made free from his wrath....YA GOT TO RIGHTY DIVIDE THE WORD OF GOD

    Whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire...Our names are written in the book of life when we are baptised with the H.G. and fire...That New BIRTH IS WHEN His wrath is satisfied when we are washed in his blood... That NEW Covenant in his blood is the book of life....Simply b/c he wrote this book with his own blood....

    Behold i send the Promise of my father upon you... Luke 24:49...Which was baptism of the H.G. AND FIRE.....The only thing that satisfies his wrath....We cannot do away with his baptism of the H.G. and fire.....Thats y he is saying every sinner has to have his part in the lake of fire....As our God is a consuming fire that has to consume our old evil adamic nature....

    Jesus is a man of war...there is vengence in his heart... Psalms 55:21....Thus his wrath....His words were softer then oil but war was in his heart and his words were smother then butter but they were as drawn swords....Thus we see that there is war in his heart...Vengence ...thus wrath....But whom the lord loveth he chastens....Thus his wrath is his love for humanity...But if there was no wrath no, No chastisement then we wd be bastards and not sons... Hebrews 12:10....

    Virgil Birkenfeld:

    PROPHECY:

    Ezekiel 36:27 And I will put my spirit WITHIN YOU, and CAUSE YOU to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep MY JUDGEMENTS, and DO THEM.

    You DIED with Christ, YOU WERE RAISED with Christ, this is the POWER OF THE RESURRECTION.

    You are now the BODY of Christ, everything you say, will to do, or do is CAUSED by the spirit of TRUTH and LIFE WITHIN YOU.

    Very FEW BELIEVE God's word.

    Philippians 2:13 For it is God (spirit) which WORKETH IN YOU, both TO WILL and TO DO his good pleasure.

    Colossians 1:27 ....this mystery .....Christ in you .....

    Matthew 7:14 ...narrow is THE WAY .....FEW there be that FIND IT ....

    John 14:6 ....I AM THE WAY .......

    1 Corinthians 12:27 ...Ye are the BODY OF CHRIST .....

    FEW BELIEVE God's word.

    Psalms 82:6 I (God himself) HAVE SAID, ye are gods, the children of the most high.

    Your the dwelling place of GOD, your are doing the very will of God 24/7.

    The question is? Do you believe God's word?

    God Bless YOU, as our Father brings us to TRUTH.
  • David0920 - 1 year ago
    Chris,

    I have been thinking today about our dialog on how we each approach and interpret the Bible. I think I've been clear regarding what I believe to be the Biblical approach and have provide some scriptural basis for that belief. So I won't take time to reiterate that here.

    I suspect based on our dialog and other comments you have made that you embrace the Dispensational view of the Bible. If I'm incorrect, the rest of what I say here may not apply.

    I read what GIGI posted regarding the various tenants of Dispensationalism and I find most of them at first blush unsupportable from the Bible and contrary what God Himself declares as to how we are to approach the Bible.

    The idea that God has written certain parts of the Bible to be applicable for certain segments of mankind and not for others, I believe, has the effect of diminishing the authority of the Bible for Mankind in general, and is a view that I could not hold. The Old Testament is equally important for Jews and Gentiles today just as is the New Testament. And each part of the Bible needs to be applied in interpreting every other part of the Bible with that understanding in view.

    I know you are familiar with Rev 22:18,19 where God sets very sever penalties for adding to or taking away from the Bible. And I suspect you would agree that recognizing any extra-Biblical writing or proclamation as the Word of God itself and therefore of equal authority as the Bible would be a violation of Rev 22:18.

    However, have you given any thought to how the Dispensational approach to the Bible relates to Rev 22:19. That would be a verse I would seriously consider personally if I were deciding on how to interpret the Bible. And it likely would prevent me from adopting the Dispensational view, if GIGI's research is correct. Food for thought.

    I wrote a comment earlier today regarding the Book of Hebrews and would be interested in how you approach that Book and some of the things that you believe it is teaching.

    Hi Donna,

    Yes I do, too.

    So we should definitely be prayerful asking for stronger faith and the will to stand in the day of trouble. I read a good article from Corrie Ten Boom (from the 70's) about believing that God will help us do this. She was living proof of this as she survived captivity in a concentration camp under Hitler.

    She was a believer who hid Jews, was captured along with her sister, and put in the camp.

    She recalls the stacks of dead bodies that accumulated daily in the camp. Her sister was one of them. But her faith stood in the time of trouble.

    She also spoke of traveling around the world meeting up with Christians in places like China and Africa where thousands and thousands of Christians were routinely martyred by the Chinese government of the time and in African countries. This happened all over the world and still continues.

    Those of us in western countries have had it pretty good in comparison. But the time may come that we, too, may be the ones martyred or held in captivity. We should be preparing ourselves for such a time, memorizing the Scriptures because we may no longer have our Bibles with us, being faithful in prayer, and be aware of what is happening in world events.

    It is not pleasant to think about these things and the temptation to desire an easy way out (such as the pre-trib rapture) can therefore be persuasive. But Scripture refutes this theory, and therefore it is false and dangerous.
  • GIGI - In Reply - 1 year ago
    Chris,

    Agreed, those who participate in church assemblies are not all at the same place in their walk with the Lord. Some are truly of the faith. Some are mature believers. Others are quite newly reborn. Some are searching. Others on the verge of being saved. Others may be in an assembly all of their lives and appear to be saved but never are.

    We should be prayerful of the assembly God has placed us in, praying for those we know there, those that are new to the fellowship, those we know are caught up in sinful ways, and for our pastor and leaders.

    Only God truly knows the heart and future of each person who comes into a fellowship. We should be welcoming and genuinely care about those God brings into our sphere of friends. We also need to be available to make new friends and serve God by being a godly guide to those God adds to our sphere.

    There will also be those who do not fellowship in a church setting, as David seems to be. And we should love them and extend fellowship to them, too, as we do on here.

    The true church of God is, as you say, and invisible congregation that God knows and has elected. We should be thankful that He determines who will be called and elected, not us. We would fail so miserably in our present sinful condition despite being saved and indwelt.

    I know many in church fellowships that are sincere believers who serve the Lord obediently in these fellowships. I know pastors that administer their office faithfully. So we cannot put everyone in churches nor every fellowship in the same basket of reprobates as David has done. Jesus said He will build His church. Paul and the apostles established church fellowships in the cities they preached according to the lead of the Holy Spirit. I believe that this is the primary way Jesus build his church.

    There may be a time when the apostasy is so great that true believers may need to "come out" of the congregations. But I don't think this is necessarily the time of that.

    Asking for strong protection, for the Lord to fight our battles, for peace and help with all the stress and for Him to deliver us from bondage, save those of us who are not yet saved (majority in the family) and heal soul and heart wounds (some from childhood trauma). Please pray He would stop abuse and confront those who are walking in ungodly ways. Also for a better job. Please also pray that our church would become a praying church and evangelize. We are in an area where there is a lot of spiritual darkness. I ask all these things also for all others in need. Thank you for praying.

    Dear Rick, I have often wondered the same thing. Aaron was chosen by God to be the High Priest for the Israelites. He failed in making the golden calf. But we are not told why God did not take Aaron's life along with the others. But it may be that He was especially chosen to lead with Moses that his life was spared. Aaron's grave sin was not going to prevail over God's purpose for him in that time in the wilderness.

    Hi Whisper, actually the Lord gave me the word "night" yesterday and I believe it was about you. I want you to know the Lord is with you, and what I do is pray and read the Bible for a few hours when things like this happen to me. Read 30 chapters of Psalms, that helps too. I'll be praying for you. God bless you.

    Hey everyone, please pray for me. I'm in a relationship where I'm just fighting with this woman everyday. It doesn't seem like it's what the Lord wants. I am also trying to get my finances together and I can't do it without Jesus. Please pray for me.

    Jane, You have been seduced by false doctrine. There is no lillith and there was no sex in the garden of eden. These are doctrines of devils to seduce people to believe lies. You need to repent of any sin and I pray if you have an unclean spirit it come out of you in the name of Jesus. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. May god the father reveal the truth to you through the power of his holy spirit. God please deliver Jane from these lies. These are vile and filthy lies from satan and I rebuke them in the name of Jesus Christ.

  • Adam - In Reply on 2 Timothy 1 - 1 year ago
    Hi Mary,

    Consider that the KJV uses the word sleep for being dead awaiting Christ's return.

    "Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;" Psalms 13:3 KJV

    "For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him." 1 Thessalonians 4:14 KJV

    "These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep." John 11:11 KJV

    "Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

    In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed." 1 Corinthians 15:51-52 KJV

    "And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed." Romans 13:11 KJV

    The Bible talks about a "day" of judgment, rather than people being judged sporadically.

    "Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world." 1 John 4:17 KJV

    And it says no one escapes judgment- people often think they skip this for some reason despite what the Bible says:

    "For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad." 2 Corinthians 5:10 KJV

    So, when these verses are put together it seems like all will be judged on the same day (also consistent with the vision in Revelation) and that people won't go to heaven until they're first judged, and it then makes sense where it says the dead will rise to meet Jesus in the air. So, to me it all seems logical, what happens. Despite all this evidence in God's word, many people still prefer to believe something else that makes them feel good, however.

    Chris according to Micah 5:3 he wd give them up ( the Church ) until the woman is in travail and birth pains....There fore shall he give them till she that is in travail has given birth... Rev 12:5 ...After the book is opened in Rev 5:1 then she travails in child birth....The manchild being that spirit of truth that is gonna rule all nations....But he ( the manchild ) has to be born in us that hears the words of the book....The words of the book are seeds of the sower....Thats y they sing a new song after the book is opened...Simply b/c the book is the New Covenant...That book of life from the blood of the lamb

    .....Lover and friend has thou put far from me and mine aquaintence into darkness..... Psalms 88:18....Thats the Church....I am the light of the world but the night comes when noman can work....No real Church possible till the book is opened....As the last 2 k yrs have been a time of darkness...Darkness will cover the earth and gross darkness the ppl....Isaiah.....But as God told Elijah he wd always have a remnant....Thus i believe there is always a church somewhere....Where 2 or three are gathered there am i in the midst..So i believe in my heart there will always be a shadow of a church somewheres....But the Kingdom will not come till the woman is in travail for the Children of PROMISE The H.G.....As God is gonna pour out of his spirit on all flesh which are his living words....The contents of that book of life. in the fathers right hand...But Micah 5 :3 has been fulfilled he gave them up for a season 2 k yrs ...Which is that great falling away....Notice that natural israel became a nation again after 2 k yrs....But the Israel of God has not appeared just yet....Simply b/c the woman has not given birth just yet....which are spirits an Israel of God....Plz note that the Kingdom has not come yet....and cannot come till the manchild the H.G. has been born in humanity....I will pour out of my Spirit on ALL FLESH....Thus the manchild the H.G. That NEW Covenant.

    No No... Gi -Gi...love ya But Remember Jesus said that there will only be 1 shepherd and 1 sheepfold not 2.... John 10:17....Remember Jesus told ic.a jew he had to be bornagin....Christ has to be born in us Jew or gentile...Thats y he always refers to himself as the son of man.... 1 Cor. 12:13....By 1 spirit are we all baptised into the body of Christ... Jew or Gentile,..Bond or Free...male or female.

    Thou will not leave my soul in hell nor suffer thy holy 1 to see corruption....But Peter said this is just prophetic of Christ
  • Nacol1900 - 1 year ago
    Yes i have a comment about the restrainer the Tare, Satan's seed that wants to restrain the H.G. the wheat a baby Christ from bringing in the Kingdom....That was the very purpose of sowing the good seed in mans hearts that the Kingdom wd be born in us....The H.G. That Child of Promise But here comes satan with his demonic seed....Thus the restrainer is the Tare that wants to destroy the good seed...Paul refers to the Tare as another man in my members....Bringing me into captivity unto sin which is in my members....which is the Tare....Paul was involved in a warfare....The H.G. was the wheat a baby Christ....But the Tare wants to destroy the wheat....Thats y we must endure unto the end to be saved...The Wheat is a baby Christ simply b/c the sower of that good seed is Christ the bridegroom....And the Tare is a baby Satan...The restrainer ...Remember the dragon wanted to kill the woman and her Child...In Rev 12:10....But in the end he is killed, the dragon is satans seed....Now Paul refers to the Tare as a thorn in the flesh....But it was actually a Tare satan's seed....That was trying to restrain the Kingdom from coming to the man born again by this good seed....A kingdom seed....That incorruptible seed .....Its Kingdom against Kingdom as our lord said....He knew that we wd be involved in a warfare....And the avenger is satans seed....Unless you receive the Kingdom AS A LIL CHILD.

    Rev.22:11 Tells us about the 2 seeds as the Tares and the wheat....One is always filthy and evil but 1 is always holy and righteous.....And this war is raging within us....Thats y Paul was saying when i wd do good evil is present with me....With my mind i serve the law of God but with my flesh the TARE ( his thorn in the flesh ) I SERVE THE LAW OF SIN....Thats y God cd not remove it....Thus we must endure to the end....When the Tares are gathered and burned....Then the wheat the Children of the Kingdom will reign with Christ.

    Rev 12:5, Rev 22:11

    Romans 7 :23

    Wasn't Aaron more guilty than anyone else in this instance for making the golden calf as a god? Please help me understand how Aaron should not have been slain with the others who worshipped at the alter that Aaron built for this golden calf.
