    Hello Gigi

    I am sorry about your son going through hard times, I ' ll be praying for Him as well as for Mario. I am thinking, if all of us here on this forum start praying for one another then just think how powerful our prayers are going to be. We are His family. GBU

    Dear Mario, Giannis has given you good counsel. I have a young adult son who suffers from anxiety and depression. It makes it hard for him to pursue the career he trained for and is just doing Door Dash now because he can control the amount of work he does and such. He is taking medications and they really help him. He was almost hospitalized a few years ago in the psyche ward, but did an out patient program instead that helped. We don't know why his mind and emotions are so out of whack, but it is very apparent that he is in need of medications that stabilize his mood. he may need to be on them for a long time unless the Lord heals him. I continue to pray for him daily for this healing and for his safety. I will be praying for you also when I pray for him. i am so sorry that you are going through this. It is really difficult when one's mind is working against oneself.

    Please pray for my overall emotional, mental and physical well being. Most of the time I feel low and don't feel like doing anything. I have been feeling worthless for quite long now. in short, I am not happy within. Please intercede and pray for lord to change my life. Thank you, regards and God bless.

    Hello Mario

    It would be better if you obey your doctor's instructions and take the drugs he suggests, they will help you until a time comes when you will be able to face some things in your life successfully. Obviously some happenings in your life have driven you to depression. Stay close to the Lord and rely on His love and build your Life on Him. His love is the best foundation one can set to build their life on, He will never let you down. Be patient, God will eventually lead your life to light. and you will have a blessed life. I know you may not understand many things now but you have to trust Him and His word. God will find a way out for you to free you from everything, trust Him and follow Him. If I were in your shoes I would join a Christian community, there you will find good friends/brothers and sisters who will support and help you and give you good advice. Don't stay alone. When people are lonely their mind works strangely. Pray to God to show you where to go. Don't be afraid, since God is with us who can succeed a thing against us. Move on with your life, set certain goals to achieve, what you like, what job you like having, what friends you like to be with, set goals and move on don't stay behind. Hold God's hand tightly and do not fear of anything. A blessed life awaits for you. GBU

    Connecting number values to the letters of the alphabet, staring with A=6, B=12, C=18 (continue adding sixes), 'the seal of Sion' gives a total of 888. Using this same method, 'The Good Fruit' and 'Jesus Gospel', also give 888. Taking the word 'Error', and adding 'Jesus' to it, we also get 888. This number is relevant when looking at Greek Isopheny where the name 'Jesus', has the value of 888 and this number is found to be connected in many ways in traditional Hebrew and Greek gematria.

    part 3..more verse references: 2 Peter 1:19, 1 John 1:1, Isaiah 53, death by cross hanging had not yet been invented, this was prophesied over 1,000 yrs before.) 1 Cor 15:1-8 Yet, anyone that reads the Bible needs to read the Prelude before each chapter. It tells you WHO wrote it, Who they were writing TO & Who/What it's about. So you see, if your reading a verse written for the Jews, it will not apply to Gentiles now a days & if your reading a verse about Jesus, it most definitely doesn't apply to any other king or profit. This is why God wants us to Read, Study, Learn & Teach the Bible. Not merely take another's word for it. For there are WAY to many wolves in sheep's clothing that will lead you astray.

    part 2, In John 10:7 "I AM" the door of the sheep & in 10:9 I AM the door: by me if any man inter in, he shall be saved, & shall go in and out, and find pasture. John 10:11 "I AM" the good Shepard: the good Shepard giveth his life for the sheep & 14, "I AM" the good Shepard, & know my sheep & am known of mine (believers). Then in John 11:25 "I AM" the resurrection, & the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead (an unbeliever), yet shall he live: continue reading - 26. "I AM" the Way, the Truth & the Life, NO man come unto the Father, but by me. And last yet definitely not least, John 15:1,5 "I AM" the Vine ye are the branches: he that abides in me, & I in him, the same abideth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. Good to read on till end of 11. They also link Jesus to the Old Testament revelation of God. The Bible is said to have Many translations; these ppl are either ignorant (merely not knowing the bibles truth), evil or both. When copied, They went directly to the original translations so it was directly written per jot & tittle. We don't have originals now yet we do have documents that date back 100 yrs A.D - 120 A.D. over 6,000 manuscripts of antient writings & over 25,000 Archaeological digs. We have matching documents over 2,000 yrs after the original that match jot per tittle. ANY DEVIATION AND THEY WERE THROWN OUT. plus, in many different languages as; Ceriac, Coptic, Latin & Greek.

    Mr. B said, "I'm not here to prove the bible, I'm not here to defend the bible & Charles Spurgen said it best, "I would no more defend the Bible then I would defend a Lion. You don't defend a Lion, You just let him loose, he'll defend himself.!! *"The Bible is a Reliable Collection of Historical Documents. Written by eye witness, 'during the life time of other eye witnesses' that report 'supernatural events'-'that took place in fulfilment of specific prophecies' & claim that their writings are Devine rather than human in origin*".

    Here are some verses...
  • Texsis - 2 years ago
    Part 1/2 "Why I believe the Holy Bible", Writings from 3 continents: Asia, Africa & Europe, in 3 languages: Hebrew, Greek & some Aramaic. 40 authors & 66 volumes over 1,500 yrs from all walks of life. Why 4 gospels? They tell same story from a different prospective, for instance; MATTHEW: to a Jewish (they read backwards) ppl & their genealogy. MARK: is brevity, his message can be captured in a single verse, "For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, & to give His life a ransom for many" & a servant on the move, instantly responsive to the will of the Father. By preaching, teaching, & healing, He ministers to the needs of others even to the point of death. 'After the Resurrection, He commissions His followers to, continue His work in His power-servants following in the steps of the perfect Servant. LUKE: a physician, writes w/the compassion & warmth of a family doctor as he carefully documents the perfect humanity of the Son of Man. Jesus Christ. Emphasizing Jesus' ancestry, birth & early life before moving carefully & collected from witnesses on Historical & Chronologically. Collected from witnesses & ministers of the word on History & in Chronological order, 1:1-4 & presents Christ in His humanity as the Son of Man; John portrays Him in His deity as the Son of God. JOHN: is topical, evangelism, focuses around 7 miracles: 1. fed thousands of ppl 2. cast out evil spirits 3. healed the blind, deaf, sick, injured & infirmed 4. turned water into wine 5. controlled the water & other elements of nature 6. caught a surprisingly large amount of fish & 7. raised ppl from the dead, including himself. Plus, His own birth was a miracle in it self! the 7 "I AM" statements of Christ. Jesus said unto them, "I AM" the Bread Life in John 6:35,41,48 & 51, "I Am" the Light of the World John 8:12 & 9:5 then in 8:58, Verily verily, I say unto you, before before Abraham was "I AM"... continued..

    Why do jewish people believe Jesus was called
  • Ronald Whittemore - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Hi Richard, good thoughts, just a few questions to study for the truth.

    I agree, "Somethin' ain't right here with the logic." Many have tried to calculate how close we are and only God the Father knows. My understanding of a generation is the average life from birth to death. The 120 years in Genesis was the warning God gave, they had 120 years to repent until the flood came and wiped them all out except the 8.

    I assume the generation you are referencing is the one in Matt. 24 Mark 13 Luke 21. My understanding is they have a dual meaning some things are for the future and many things were for then. Jesus said that generation vipers, evil, adulterous, wicked, sinful, faithless, perverse, and "That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation" Matt.23:33-39.

    "This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled" is where the division of understanding comes. What did Jesus mean when He said till all be fulfilled? Was it all prophesied up to the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple we see in Daniel 9? Was it all until He returns? Was it part of both? We must remember at the time Jesus told them this they did not even know He was going to be crucified, Mark 16:14 Luke 9:44-45 Luke 18:31-34 Luke 24:6-8 Luke 24:44-45.



    Jesus said when you see the abomination of desolation spoken by Daniel, flee Judea. History tells us all the believers in Jesus got that warning and fled to Pella a region across the Jordan river and were saved. Many today place this with saying the antichrist is the he in Dan.9:27, 7-year tribulation, and the rapture of the Church.

    Has the 70-week prophecy been fulfilled? How would that change the rapture theory as taught? If we are looking to be taken out before the tribulation and that does not happen, would that be the hour of temptation and the falling away? The seven-year cleanup, could they be the first seven years of the millennium?

    God bless,

    Alex1939...Hiya Rose...He that will take away your goods is the H.G.. Luke 14:28...Remember Paul said i have suffered the loss of all things and count them but dung that i might win Christ and be found in him Phili 3:8...And Jesus said to count the cost its gonna cost ya everything...The early Church had to give everything away....Can you suffer the loss of all things ?...Count the cost, can you lose every thing in order to please him...If any man love wife or children more then me is not worthy of me...

    ......Peter asked what shall we there fore receive for we have left all to follow you...Jesus replied there is no man that has left all to follow me that shall not receive manifold more in this life and in the life to come ....Them that will follow me in the regeneration will sit on 12 thrones etc...Lemme go, too tired to continue...But Jesus did say to count the cost b/f you follow me.

  • GiGi - In Reply on Psalms 1 - 2 years ago
    Sarah,

    Welcome and it is wonderful that you are setting your mind, heart, and spirit to studying Scripture. I love the Psalms and Psalm one is my favorite. I have a poster with these words and a picture of a stream with little waterfalls as a background.

    I think that the more you read and re-read passages of Scripture your mind stores it away to be brought forward by the Holy spirit at times you need it most.

    It may be helpful to select out verses that speak to you and write them in a notebook so you can go back and re-read a verse and work on memorizing it. This is a way to meditate on the word. Another way that works for me is to take a select verse and try to make it into a melody to sing to yourself. This helps with recall.
  • Jesse - In Reply on Luke 10 - 2 years ago
    Rose,

    Luke 6:30 is part of a section ( Luke 6:27-38) that deals with the conduct of life, our attitude toward other people. There are 13 things that are mentioned in this section and Verse 30 is one of those things.

    Here is what I see in Verse 30:

    It says give to everyone that asks you, everyone! And of him that takes away thy goods do not ask them back again.



    Now wait a minute! If you take my things, where does that leave me? I mean that makes me a little angry. Well, if they take away my things, what have I lost? My things!

    It's interesting how the Lord helps us work things out when we accumulate too much of the world, and He allows the world to take it away through the various means. Please don't ask for it back. Don't fight for it. It was taken away for a reason!

  • Mario - 2 years ago
    Hi,

    I've been struggling with mental issues for a while now, and I am frankly tired. I am a young man, and I have been worrying both my parents and myself with my lack of purpose, direction, and constant sadness and obsession. I have horrible thoughts all the time, and I am being pressured to be medicated unless I improve, but I fear what the drugs may do, as I am also afraid of what I can do off the drugs (I am currently taking Lamictal, a mood stabilizer). I really don't know what to do, I don't know how to wean off the medical system and its drugs, but I don't want to be obsessive and sick either. Prayers are appreciated.
  • Sammi - In Reply on Luke 10 - 2 years ago
    My interpretation of this verse is as follows , if someone asks to borrow something from me , money , my lawn mower etc , I don't ask for them back . If that person gives me the thing back , of their own free will , that's great , but I don't ask for anything back . Most of the time those things are given back to me without me even having to think about it , it's only occasionally that I don't get things back . So , when I lend something to someone , I don't expect to get it back , it's gone forever as far as Im concerned .
  • Alex1939 - 2 years ago
    Alex1939...Lemme give ya my slant on the parable of the sower and his precious seed the words of the New Covenant ...That book that he wrote with his own blood...The Parable of the sower and his seed is the most important parable in the bible....Simply b/c Jesus said know ye not this parable...How then will you know all parables...That Good seed is gonna form Christ in us...My lil Children of whom i travail in birth till Christ is formed in you...Thus the anointing will teach us all things...Which is the H.G. The Child of Promise that is gonna be born in us via his good seed the living word.

    ....88 Times in the New Testament Jesus refers to himself as the SON OF MAN....Every time he refered to himself as the SON OF MAN he was trying tell us something...But it was hid for a while...There is a Baby Christ in our near future...She brought forth a man Child that is gonna rule all nations....The Sower of that good seed is Christ the Bridegroom thus the good fruit is a Baby Christ the H.G. That Child of Promise...That was the great Promise I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven...Thus the babes and sucklings he mentions...Whosoever receiveth one such child in my name receiveth me...Unless you receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in....These things are hid from the wise and prudent but revealed unto babes...Which is that New Creature the H.G. the Child of Promise....Jesus don't refer to himself as the bridegroom for nothing he has a seed to sow in humanity...Everytime he refered to himself as the SON OF MAN HE WAS TRYING TO TELL US THERE IS A Baby CHRIST IN OUR NEAR FUTURE...Thats y he has to know us...That his incorruptible seed might be sown in our hearts...Thats y the new birth is so important...That New Covenant in his blood is the Book in the right hand of the father...Plz note the Kingdom does not come till the woman births the Children...After the book is opened...Then the end will come...Go thy way Daniel till th end.

    Thanks , those references have helped a lot . I guess we wouldn't be the best ambassadors for the Truth if we were all walking around with miserable faces . May God bless you with even more reasons to rejoice in Him .
