Alex 1939...Hiya Benjamin...Good question, hope i can help you...But its in the spritual realm...As Faith is the result of his word planted in our hearts...The living word is that good seed that forms Christ in us...In the spiritual realm ....As the scripture says faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word ( the living word ) of God...His voice,...Today if you will hear his voice...Its like a spritual pregnancy the Child is the H.G...The kingdom...Unless you receive the Kingdom as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in Thats y Hebrews 11:1 tells us Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen....Jesus tells us unless you receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in...Thats y he has to know us so he can plant his incorruptible seed in our hearts initiating a spritual pregnancy of Christ in us...But there is a time of gestation thats when we walk by faith and not by sight...We have the substance of things hoped for the Spirit the H.G...But we also have the evidence of things not seen Faith....Faith is truly a spritual pregnancy that preceeds a heavenly birth of Christ in us... Gal 4:19 my lil Children of whom i travail in birth till Christ is formed in you...We cannot see the Child the H.G that Child of Promise he is just a spritual infant that cannot speak for a while...But he is the anointing that spirit of truth that is gona rule all nations As in John 16:13

......But until the Kingdom comes we walk by faith and not by sight...As jesus said the kingdom comes not with observation simply b/c its in the spritual realm.

.....She brought forth a manchild that is gonna rule all nation and her Child was caught up to God and to his Throne... Rev 12:5.....This woman in Rev. 12 is the best example of faith... b/f her Child came she had the subtance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen ISAIAH 66:7..B/F she traviled she brought forth, b/f her pains came she was delivered of aman Child.

Please read Genesis 1:31 "And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day." HE said it was very good

Hopefully this is helpful

Very informative.

Thank you so much for clarification and reminding me of Jonah!!

Hi Verleen,

No one has ever seen God BECAUSE He is Spirit. John 4:24. You may also want to check out John 3:6. In John 3:8, Spirit is compared with the wind, which cannot be seen; one can only feel and experience the effects of the wind, as with Spirit (God).

It is my opinion, yet not all will agree, nothing except God can exist, and nothing beyond Him can truly happen. What God creates has no alternative, the truth arises from what He knows. Not from me! Therefore what God did not create can only falsely be in my own mind and NOT in His. God is is the only Cause and His effect is His Perfect Son.

Peace

The Levites where appointed to prepare the tabernacle, and were in charge of moving it, while the people made their way into the promised land. Aaron, Moses brother would be the high priest, along with His sons, two of whom were devoured at the alter for disobedience. Understanding the different offerings will enlighten the reader into the writings of the Pauline letters, since we know that Paul was a Pharisee of all Pharisee's. All His writings are enhanced and illustrated with the use of this book. His words are interweaved with the sacraments of the alter, enlightening the reader of the true meaning of the blood and its purpose in sanctifying the soul of souls (the congregation) who bring it. How these sacrifices can never make us perfect, while we see Jesus who has become the perfect one from all eternity. The prophesied one. The Messiah, who would come to reconcile His people and those of the gentile nations ,once and for all .

Moses had been given a great responsibility, making sure that Gods will would be done. Sin offerings would be an important part of keeping the congregation( the future church ) in one mind, knowing the importance of the alter and the sinful nature of man! Consecrating the Nation into one!

Hi Alsie,

I believe Christ is not a physical body. So, who is Christ except God's Holy Son as He created Him. And what are you, except the Christ in you. The term "in you" in my opinion, is NOT to be taken as inside your body, for that is a very disgusting place to dwell. He is in your mind in which the Holy Spirit speaks to. It would also be appropriate to use the term "within your heart"; not to be mistaken as a physical heart. Although many names have particular meanings, the name Jesus, like all names, is used for body identification. Jesus APPEARED as a body and His Mind was in complete agreement with God's. And of course, all of us should constantly strive to understand with our whole heart or mind to think like Jesus, whom the Holy spirit speaks to us through.

Blessings

Prayer for my son, to have a court case expunged, and growth in Christ . Thank you and please ask for God's divine intervention, in Jesus name. Thank you and God lead and bless you.

At Gal. 3:11 It is written that the just shall live by faith.

At Habakkuk 2:4. It is written that the just shall live by his faith?

Should the scriptures say: (live by faith). or should it say: (live by his faith)?

I trust that you understand what it is that I'm asking; so if you have an answer, please inform me as to what the true meaning of these Scriptures are?

After God made man on the sixth day, he did not say that it was good? As he said, when he made the light, and the earth and the heavens, the oceans and the fish , and cattle, and herbs, plants and trees and all the growing things that he had made in the first five days. So why did God not say it was good in the sixth day after he had made man?

would like prayer for my Father who is in the hospital and pray for my Mother who is worrying about him, I know GOD can do it he has done more miraculous things

please remember me in your prayers and family

Please , come on here and tell us these contradictions , we love to help people sort these things out ! Sometimes we all find things that we can't quite wrap our heads around , that's what this site is here for . I know of a massive contradiction in the accounts of David's life . I don't have time to put it up here this minute but I shall try later . I wonder if anyone else has noticed it ? Is a contradiction in the way David's actions were perceived and the writter definately says two different things . I will leave it with you all to see if anyone else has noticed and I will reveal it in about ten or twelve hours , give you time to think about it and find it ? Haha !

Yes Jeff, you can also look at John 14:30; John 16:11; 2 Corinthians 4:3,4; Ephesians 2:2.

Hi DeborahMarie. We read from verse 1 that the religious leaders approached Jesus specifically to tempt or test Him. If He claimed Who He was, then He should command a sign to come down from Heaven. Jesus told them that they were able to read the signs from the near heaven (i.e. the sky) to forecast the weather conditions, but strangely were not able to read the signs that were given to them in the Prophets about theirs & man's spiritual condition.

When they read of the Prophet Jonah going to Nineveh, that wicked city, to preach against it, the religious leaders of Jesus' day should have aligned the message of that book with the condition of people's hearts now & Jesus' coming at such a time. We remember that Jesus had a similar encounter with the religious leaders back in Matthew 12:38-41, where Jesus was more specific about the prophecy: where the experiences of Jonah would be prophetical to what Jesus would face leading up to the Cross, His Death & His Resurrection.

Most would have been unaware of these aspects. Though certainly from Jesus' preaching, condemnation of them & presentation of a way out from such a resistance & hatred of Him, to accepting & believing that He was the Messiah, this should have been the lesson learnt from Jonah's days. The leaders probably went back & had a re-look at the Book of Jonah after Jesus left them - I wonder it they learnt anything new.

That's a great question, Alsie. I sort of take the middle road on that. Though the Book of Revelation has a lot of imagery in it, which was what was revealed to John so he could comprehend or make sense of it, there are also real people & real events depicted in it which have to be accepted factually. When I read Revelation 1:13-16, clearly we have the Person of Jesus before John, Who both looked at John and touched him. Jesus had a garment on with a chest sash and His Voice had a tone & pitch unlike anything he had heard. Although, certain aspects were possibly hid from John, so that Jesus' Hair, Eyes, Feet, & Countenance could only appear as unusually radiant, sufficient for mortal man to see. Maybe the heavenly beings see the Father & Son in some other way; the Father Who is Spirit & Jesus, the Man, God's Word made flesh, now glorified.

When we all get to heaven,

What a day of rejoicing that will be!

When we all see Jesus,

We'll sing and shout the victory!

Hallelujah.

My question is concerning the image of Christ that is described in Revelation chapter one. Some people take this description literally as this being what he really looks like. I have always believed that since John was having a vision that was a spiritual image that was not what he would necessarily look like in the flesh. What is your opinion on this matter?

Thanks, Alsie Florence

Please Pray For My Uncle Christhoper He's In The Hosptial! They Don't Know If He Gonna Make It!

Hi Richard. I am not trying to be a pastor or teacher over men or anything like that. I am just sharing my thinking as I am considering what I am reading. But I am glad you are finding my posts useful. I learn so much from reading the ideas of others who also think deeply about portions of Scriptures. Thus my understanding is expanded and when I share my thoughts, they are not totally my own. I do incorporate what I learn from others in my posts by rephrasing some of their points, but much of what I write originates with me. I guess I just have been blessed with good teachers in my life that helped me form a solid foundation. I am thankful for that.

As to your points you brought up, thanks for your input. I am not quite sure of what you were pointing out. But I will give it some further thought. Maybe you could rephrase it a bit. God bless you.

I'm now just starting to read thou bible and it is great

In Matthew 16:4 while addressing the Pharisees and Sadducees what does Jesus mean by saying "they are wicked and look for miraculous signs but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah"- what is the sign of Jonah mean here?

Whew. I must say you have the most detailed discussions particularly on the O.T. laws in the Pentateuch. Assuming of course that you're not trying to be a Pastor or something in authority over men..I must say that I commend these efforts and certainly would recommend others read your stuff. That; of course entirely seperately from my appreciation of having you as my number one feedback responder; as it were....

Anyway; I had two thoughts here. The first is when you say that committing sin isn't causing it (sorry can't turn to your other post to see exact wording). I would say; in some sense that for someone to reach the "age of accountability" then their nature of sin expresses itself; in that sense it then is judged. I also would say that in hell there are various degrees of punishment to the crime; as well as a statement "not to pray for a sin leading to death" which I interpret as something God may allow someone to die from so (as Corinthians states) their soul may be saved (or perhaps what is given a death penalty here on earth; in other words we shouldn't stop that from occurring). Just thinking here. In other words to the aforementioned topic even though our sin nature is the cause of us not being able without Christ to avoid sin; it is our sin itself not the fact we were born with it the reason we are judged. I suppose you won't disagree with that concept or else we all would be damned; Christ of course gives us a NEW nature.

As to the ceremonial statement of course I can't disagree (but love commenting). I would say that true holiness MAKES us clean rather than the external ceremony. I would say that the priest who picked up the ark and was struck dead wasn't necessarily sent to eternal judgment for it (I'm not sure if there was a set law in regard to that you probably know). Moses couldn't look on His full glory and we can't. I find it interesting thinking of being in His presence in our new bodies. We need the fear of the Lord!!!

Thank you Duncan.

:-)

I am prayerfully considering all the wise counsel from the brethren and am grateful.

Is there a verse or verses that talks about Satan being the ruler of the world besides

John 12:31?

Thanks!

King David was called a man after GOD's heart, GOD loved & honored King David even after his adultery & muderous cover-up, attempt. 2Samuel 11, 1Kings 11:4, Acts 13:22,

Psalms 38, Psalms 40, Psalms 51, David sought after GOD

However, David didn't get away with anything, without consequences: 2Samuel 12, because of the severity of his sin as stated by Nathan in 2Samuel 12, the "sword did not depart" from his house._._

The punishment for adultery Old Testament was death 2Samuel 12:13, but GOD spared David's life

GOD doesn't take delight in death but that everyone should turn from unrighteousness! Ezekiel 33:11, Ezekiel 18:32, 1John 1:9,

Malachi 2:13-16, Proverbs 5,

Hopefully these are helpful

Story of Job 1, was encouragement to me after loss of worldly riches. I was amazed after he suffered so much loss he (Job) was able to say: Job 1:21,

Also Proverbs 23:4,5, Hebrews 12:27, Psalms 12:5,

I hope these are helpful

James 1:5, ask GOD for wisdom & understanding as you read. Mark 9:23-24, Romans 11:29-36,

I had to pray many times as I was reading & trying to understand the Bible when I was serious about turning my life to GOD.

If there are certain situations you need help with, in life, you can even use this site to research scripture, questions & answers, or ask questions.

I've found any time I've questioned scripture seemingly contradiction, after deeper reading, prayer & study I find it doesn't.

You can search words, names, phrases.
