Please check back in an hour or more. Thank you for your patience!
All of your arguments/points of view I've shared myself, so these are not new considerations.
I can tell you haven't watched the interview either. Anyone who doesn't watch it will likely make many false assumptions about it.
For example I didn't say the interviewer met aliens. It's in regards to a craft that was discovered. I don't know if you've ever had unexplained phenomenon occur ever in your life. The creation is amazing and no one person fully comprehends the details and complexity of what God has created. The Bible does not say anywhere that life wasn't created outside of earth. It doesn't say one way or the other. But it would be a logical fallacy to assume that by omission then it must not exist, because the Land of Nod, for example, was not explained in how it was created or where the people came from, but was just suddenly briefly mentioned. It's likely a book could be written about that in itself, but instead we have a tiny mention of it.
God is big enough to make whatever He wants in the expanse of the universe. I don't think its right to try to assume God has a limitation and "cant" make others for this or that human reasoning. Your point #3 sounds like speculation about what you think God can or cannot do, for example. It would be extremely weird if we found out there were other beings besides just those on earth, heaven, and hell, and the spiritual dimension. And how that reconciles with the Bible, but who are we to say that God can or can't make more beings besides us. The mention of another "Jesus" savior wasn't serious. If there were beings that were immoral and defied God then they too would need saving, however. God bless.
Stay strong in the word, love u in Christ.
Thank you for your information. I will check it out and consider it. Have a good evening. Going off to bed now.
Do you have any notes compiled about the period Israel breaks the covenant, regarding David's throne? I happens at the day of the Lord, Joel 2:1-11, and ends with Christ claiming the throne. The underlying issue is did God suspend a binding arrangement, or was it unconditional that David would never lack a man on his throne, 1 kings 9:5, Jeremiah 33:17. Does the man of sin have dominion over David's throne?
Didn't you mentioned this a few days ago? Could you do a breakdown of it? I found verses like Isaiah 24:15, Isaiah 13:11 compelling, any insight? Thanks.
For this reason, sharing your faith in Jesus with others who are sinners like you in your old life, will help saved them. You know this is good and pleasing to God, and will glorify his name.
BUT NOW, you've decided not to do good to others, even to others that might insult you out of fear or anger. You're disobeying God, your pride of life has influenced your decision. Two commandments written with Jesus' blood in our hearts: 1. Love God with all your heart, with all your strength, with all your mind; 2. Love others as yourself/ourself.
I PRAY TO GOD, that you change your mind, in JESUS' name.
I didn't intend to put that on the main thread, a thousand apologies. I've got you on my mind.
You need a sign. You will wonder when the US/Israel put a "scroll" over Tehran, Revelation 6:14. That's the sixth seal, moving the world closer to the day of the Lord, which dismayed the prophet to tears, Ezekiel 21:7. You won't be able to deny it now that I've made you aware.
Malachi 3:11 Context 8Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. 9Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. 10Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. 11And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. 12And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts.
CHEERFUL GIVER
2 Corinthians 9:6 - 7 6But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. 7Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
BIBLICAL DEFINITION OF TERMS
TITHES = NOTE: God created and owned all things. You and I are servants or stewards of God. So God doesn't need our money, BUT wants what tithes represent: our hearts, trust and faith in Him. As our Father, He is teaching us to always put God first in our lives.
OFFERINGS = represent the best fruit of our labor offered to God as a return of thanks for God's favors, love, and blessings.
I did not want this conversation to go into what it did with the poster "Anonymous" or "Roman" if they are the same person. I posted to you to speak to the generation Jesus is speaking about in Matthew 24. I would love to hear more of what you think. I am still learning when it comes to eschatology, so I find people's input valuable.
You may think I am wrong in my thinking. That is fine with me as this topic does not speak to my salvation in any way. The time of the end will come one way or another. I usually do not enter into conversations on this topic because it has such a diversity of thoughts and no definitive timeline in sequence anywhere in the Bible. Most people take Scriptures from various parts of the Biuble to fit together their theory. And that is what we are talking about here.
I appreciate hearing your views but I do not wish to argue on this topic. I would like to know your name, though, so I can address my post to you by name.
Dear Heavenly Father, Help us to always honor Your name and that of Your Son, Jesus and that of the Holy Spirit. We all need to grow in reverence of You and in proclaiming Your name rightly. Today we bring before You this friend of Leviticus Boy and ask that you move in his life today to draw him to You for salvation. We pray that the Holy Spirit will bring to him the conviction of sin and his standing before You as a sinner. Cause him to seek You today for forgiveness, salvation, and a new life in You. We ask this of You, Father, in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Perhaps so. But the text does not explicitly state that is the case, but it may explain their behavior.
I'm sorry, but you are mistaken. The resurrection tenants and time-line is specifically laid out in a particular order:
#1) The saints are resurrected first. They heal the earth alongside millions of mortals, great tribulation survivors, and at the end of the 1,000 years, God defeats the 3 evil spirits that make us behave cross towards one another. The saints are judged at the seventh trumpet, they are the first fruits of the 1st resurrection. You are implying at the 1st resurrection, Jesus is picking out souls for everlasting life, but it's the resurrected saints he's gathering prior to Revelation 14:1. 1 Thessalonians 4:17, Paul is referring to the saints only, not anyone else.
#2) The Great White throne Judgment, resurrection happens AFTER the 1,000 years, Revelation 20. This is the resurrection of the rest of humanity, the sinners, unbelievers, believers of false doctrine. This is my place, where I belong, you will find me amongst the sea of humble sinners, praying for redemption. Ezekiel 37:1-14, the valley of dry bones ALLEGORY of the 2nd resurrection where God had pity on the whole house of Israel and reestablished him at the last, Isaiah 14:1.
'Jesus has to prepare a place for us' is synonymous with Jesus creating a new heaven and new earth. The 1st resurrection saints will enter a totally destroyed world, Isaiah 24. The 2nd resurrection group will inherit paradise.
Hebrews 9:27 God set the parameters for entering the kingdom of heaven, part of it is to require a mortal death. Jesus Christ was the first example of being 'born again'. Jesus is the only man to live, die, having God resurrect him into everlasting life!
Please consider what I'm saying in accordance to the narrative of what Biblically occurs. I have 1 more intriguing post for you about the saints.
Some may need to Sign Out and Sign In again to resolve.
If anyone encounters any further complications, please let us know. Have a blessed day and thank you for the prayers!
Then in verse 6, we read of Nehemiah's passionate agonizing prayer to God for Israel. I understand that Nehemiah here was praying for all of God's people, both Judah & Israel who had sinned grievously before the LORD which resulted in their captivity; and to both these, he referred to as 'Israel' and was not specifically praying for Judah.
Do you mean a christian Catholic or just somebody who has the name "christian" but doesn't practise a christian life? Is the other person saved or not? The problem is not marrying to a christian from any another church but marrying to somebody who is christian as a custom (because their parents were and baptized them when babies) but doesn't really believe in Jesus, their lives show no real faith, no change, no fruit. And Catholics are ususally like that (but not always).
Anyway a marriage between a believer and a non believer(I am putting a question mark on that) may be a big problem. How can two different lives, beliefs, practises be compromised together? A common life has to rely on some standards, some common rules etc. What are those going to be? Somewhere in between? Can the light be compromised with darkness, purity with sin, truth with lie? Such unions often lead to difficult situations. You will want to go to the church and she will want to go to a club, you will wish to hear christian music and she will want to watch some worldly sinful moovies, you will not say lies but she will do that. What will the rules that you will raise your kids with? You may believe that you will attract her to the real faith but often the opposite occurs. Sin is powerful and if you are not careful then you may find yourself in a big big trouble. Now if she is a believer but the Catholic way then things are better ...
The above are general things, it is you who knows the other person and know what to expect from her. Why don't you ask for God's advice, ask for His guidance. He knows better than our heart. Pray to God and if you are in a church consult your pastor, the elders etc. especially those who know that other person and can tell you a few things.
(I think that if you want to be married in a Catholic church then you must become a Catholic yourself and be baptized in water in the Catholic church, but I am not so sure about that)
