QUESTION: If you could only choose one book of the bible to be your favorite, which would it be and why?

Have been reading your bible that reads each chapter I find interesting and very useful. My grandmother who passed before the turn of the centry read the bible everyday when I was young and I have fond memories setting with her and talking about our lord the father. I am 68 years old soon to be 69 years old on April 3rd of this year and I have downloaded your app on my computer and cellphone and reading your bible I think of her and what she taught me. We had long talks and I miss her so and tears of memories tell me not to let her down reading about our heavenly father. Thank you for a chance to rekindle her memories of days long passed with her and pray I will be with her in paradise.

Once again thank you, Sonja West

Hi it's me again I've been listening to about reducing spirits I'm not saying that correctly I've been trying to read about it wondering is it possible the reason why our country the way it is or world reducing spirits and I'm not saying that right that's why things are the way they are that's I'm trying to learn how to fight against this it would be appreciated with somebody could help me out I hope you know what I meant by reducing spirits I'm not saying the right sorry

I just left some messages about asking questions about the garment and God's going to charge his people but after reading your messages that was meant for me to be read thank you my Lord Jesus for allowing me to read that he's been with me since 1995 I pray that all my brothers and sisters prayers will be answered in Jesus name I pray amen

I was the person that just asked about the garment and when God people will be judged 60 years old I know I have an angel and I know Jesus Christ is with me but it's so hard in 1995-96 I became a born again Christian I've not done a good job in serving my Lord Jesus Christ yes I know you're not saved by your works but he wants you to have love and it's so hard to be a Christian today I like being on his team I know that's a little bit different forgive me if it seems like I'm all over the place I'm really not like 1995 today when you read it things are not the way they're supposed to be you know sorry about all the texts

There might be two texts in this sorry I'll do my best please when you respond I have a hard time understanding some things one the garment of Jesus Christ I understand a little bit about it and read it but when the dead rises and The living goes with the Dead God's people is there certain levels of judgment for God's people are going to be judged I know Jesus says a new testament I don't come to destroy the old I come to fulfill it I hope I said this right

Dear Dan Lee, Greetings in Christ! God is able to heal you, but you must be aware that it may not be His will to do it. He allowed this for a reason that benefits you somehow, and you may need to seek ways to better communicate with people, like slowing down your speech. What a witness you would be being a mute who by the grace of God was able to improve their speech.

The Apostle Paul had a thorn--an ailment that the Bible doesn't reveal...

2 Corinthians 12:



7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.

8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.

9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

please pray for Kristie and me

Praise God members. I would like a prayer request for my daughter to improve on her grades. She's an obedient and disciplined child but her performance scares me alot. I ask her teachers if she does homework well and they tell me she does her homework well but when it comes to doing exams she fails terribly. This scares me alot. I need your prayers for Margaret. I will really appreciated.

God bless you all.

Hi Gizzmoo. When we see the word 'God', in Hebrew it is 'Elohim'. And this is a non-specific word, which applies generally to God ( Genesis 1:1), gods ( Genesis 35:2) & judges ( Exodus 21:6). But when the word 'LORD' is written, then it becomes a specific word, meaning 'Yahweh' (the Self-existent, Eternal God); and this is His Name, as was revealed to Moses ( Exodus 3:13-15).

When we see God's Name expressed differently (as well as several other names of God that reflect God's Person & Work), we can understand that the author of the Book, by the inspiration of God's Spirit, has chosen to name the God of Heaven (Elohim) and/or the God Who is the unchangeable & eternal One (Yahweh). Either way, it leaves us no doubt Who God is that the Bible speaks of & when 'elohim' is used in its other applications, we should understand those meanings as well & not confuse them with the True God.

As far as your second question, do you mean that as it is written, God "breathed into his (Adam's) nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul" ( Genesis 2:7) but it is not written the same about animals, therefore where did they get the ability to breathe ( Genesis 1:20-25)? I suppose, the same could be said about the description of man & woman's creation in that chapter ( Genesis 1:26,27), that here also it hasn't been written that they received breath. So, I would say that it is understood that all living creatures did begin to breathe (whether sea, land or air animals), even as a greater description of man's creation is given in chapter 2 of him getting the 'Breath of God'.

I suppose we might never know conclusively how Adam knew that this woman was made from a part of his body. It seems likely though that as he awoke out of deep sleep & whether or not the marks of this first recorded surgery was evident on him, God may have told Adam who this new person was & where she came from, when He presented her to him ( Genesis 2:22). That new special creation that came from his own body would have especially endeared Adam to Eve and Eve to Adam, truly making them one flesh; he even naming her Eve (Heb. 'ishshah'), for out of 'ish' (man) she was created.

It is okay Mark to read the apocryphal books, as you would read many other similar writings. But there were important reasons why they were not allowed into the Canon of Scripture. Reasons such as, apostolic authorship, non-recognition of those books by the Jews, the apostles, even the Lord Himself, historical errors, doctrinal errors, etc., prompted their non-acceptance; even though those books are recognized & incorporated by Roman Catholics & some orthodox churches in their Bibles.

Tobit (I think you meant to write that) & 1 & 2 Maccabees are amongst those with some errors - not many, yet one needs to have a watchful eye & be led of God's Spirit when reading any material not found in the Word of God that we have in our hands now.

Please pray for my friend Pavel, who got involved in a homosexual relationship with another man. He heard Gospel many times and was open but now his new company is pulling him away from the Lord. Pray that this relationship breaks and he comes to the Lord. In Jesus name.

I Love the book of PSALMS. IT HAS SO MUCH WISDOM, This is cne of many chapters how God Loves us,also how much confidence, appreciation,most of all how God Loved King David! ,King David Loved GOD. Today modern times why is new age Christians can't have the Love for God ? Like David Loved GOD? It's simple to Love someone we se all the time,but one that we never see, but Thu the word , though worship,though songs,also though praise we feel his LOVE. I remember this scripture John 3:16 For God so Loved the world that he gave his only begotten son whosoever believeth in him shall not perish but have ever lasting life.

How did Adam know that it was bone of his bone and flesh of his flesh?

My comment/question is everything is identified as God, but later he is called Lord God. What is the difference? Is there a difference? Could it be that God is His name but Lord is His position. Either way, I love him.

God created man out of the dust but made animals out of the ground. How do they breath since they do not have the breath of life.

There are multiple reasons for delay & no from GOD.

James 4, not GOD's perfect plan, timing = look at Abraham he was promised a son, even past natural ability Genesis 12:4,6,7, Abram 75 yrs old, Genesis 17:1-8, Abraham also called Abram 90 yrs old, Sarah Genesis 18:10,11, Genesis 21:1-3, was the delay for example of faith Hebrews 11, was it for the linage of Salvation timing? Matthew 1:17, ?

1John 3:22, John 16:23, Psalms 37, Luke 11, Matthew 6, Matthew 7, Matthew 7:7, Matthew 21:22, Luke 18,

I fasted, prayed, begged, cried out & received what I asked many times & several of those caused me years of deep pain, regret, sadness etc. Trust GOD ALMIGHTY sometimes it's protection, not seeing & knowing everything & everyone attached to the things we ask. Luke 8:10-18,

Luke 8:15, Revelation 3:10,

Hopefully these are helpful

Colossians 3:21, Colossians 3:8,

You're welcome Gigi.

And thank you. To be honest I wanted to stop pasting about halfway. I didn't realize it would take so many.

However I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Goodnight and God bless.

Why do you not use God's name in your Bible?

The original writings always showed his name, even if it was the Tetragramatton - it still revealed his name.

Part 20.

There is another distinguishing mark of all God's children: They bring forth fruit. You see, God does not have any shade trees. All His trees are fruit-bearing trees. All the seed that He sows is capable of bringing forth fruit. Some will not bring forth as much as others. Actually, only one-quarter of the seed ever fell in good ground, and only one-third of that brought forth a hundredfold. That means, according to my arithmetic, that only one-twelfth ever really brings forth a real harvest. But that one-twelfth, believe me, is a bumper crop! However, the results come because of the work of the Holy Spirit. My business is just sowing the seed.

When God's Word is faithfully taught, it falls on four kinds of ground. What kind of ground are you?

These are great days in which to sow this precious seed. I thank God for the privilege of sowing the Word of God day by day. Sowing is my business. What is yours? And how is your business?

The end.

Sorry for such a long series!

God Bless."
