    Hey Janet Stemm,

    My understanding, study for yours.

    Different opinions on who the woman is that is clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet, and a crown of twelve stars. Some say the Church, some say Israel, some say Mary. In verse 3 another wonder, a great red dragon that drew a third part of the stars and cast them to earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman ready to devour her child.

    Both of these wonders appeared in heaven. The word wonders Greek- semeion, means something extraordinary, or miraculous, mostly translated sign. Sign with a meaning of divine power or purpose made known. Sometimes the word is used to denote a sign of future things.

    We know the dragon is Satan because scripture says so and most would agree the man child is Jesus the one who will rule all nations with a rod of iron, Psalms 2:9, Revelation 2:27, 12:5, and 19:15. The scripture is clear this starts before Jesus was born, the dragon was going to devour the child as soon as it was born. We see this effort of Satan when king Herod ordered not only the killing of all the children in Bethlehem but on all the coasts, from two years old and under.

    The woman flees to a wilderness prepared by God to be there for 1260 days. This is after the ascension of Jesus, not just after, but in the future. For the Church as being the woman, when the dragon was standing in front of her, Jesus was not yet born, the Church was formed after he was born, the Church did not birth Jesus.

    The woman cannot be Mary, even though she was the mother of Jesus, we are not of the seed of Mary as we see in verse 17, "the remnant of her seed". So, this leaves the third choice, which is Israel. If we look back in Genesis, we see a pretty good picture of this woman, Genesis 37:9-10.

    Chapter 12 covers the time from before our Lord's birth and ascension to the throne, up to the casting out of heaven of Satan and the fallen angels permanently, Rev.12:8-9, to the start of the Great Tribulation.

    God bless,

    RLW

    The beast, the dragon and the antichrist tare Satan, it's his unholy trinity, Satan is the great imitator imitating God throughout the centuries in the the most egregious way, it's mockery. 2 Corinthians 11:14 , Revelation 20:10 , 1 Peter 5:8 , 1 John 4:1 , Revelation 13:4 ,

    Babylon the great is deception, confusion, the confusion which people spread: Revelation 17:1 Come hither; I will shew to thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many peoples.

    11 "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."

    Does this just apply to the "Jews" or to any "believer"??

    I always found comfort in this verse, but maybe it doesn't apply to me. :(

    Please pray for me (Marc Bryant) and my mother (Ada Avant) for our health and strength protection from the seen and unseen enemies and evil forces!! that are around us. I have been praying and asking for prayer for a while, I have stated in the past the new landlord is very much ridiculous on how she run her business, she keep raising the rent and also so there are two little efficiency on the side where we have to pay electricity for those too, all the power is coming from where we stay, they are adding to the 2nd house she is nothing but a crook it is illegal what she is doing. When her father was living, we never had any problems he said the rent will not go up, because he knows my mother is on a fix income she doesn't care, we cannot report her because we have nowhere too go. We have been putting a lot of prayer request in, and the devil just get in the way, we been praying for an affordable place in a nice areas were we don't have to worry about the rent keep going up, we have been looking a senior citizen home and the waiting list is very long and you also have to pay for back ground check for each person which is 85 dollar. My mother is 87 of age and ill and I am 58 of age self-employed with no savings. We need a miracle. Thank you for your prayers.

    Jesus is referring to the way clothing was made , by first spinning the raw material into yarn or thread , which was then used to make clothing . Ever heard of a spinning wheel ?

    I am looking for just a plain list - like on this site at: Link

    It is a fine list. it is just that it is about 2,000 words short of being all the words in the KJV. I would like to get a complete list - ALL the words.

    I sent a message to this website's administration. Waiting on what they'll say.

    It seemed good, though, in the meantime, to keep checking around for a complete list.

    Thanks
  • Janet Stemm on Revelation 12 - 2 years ago
    If Revelations is a book of PROPHECY and Jesus is telling John what to write, why would the woman be Mary having Jesus? Makes more sense to be the church.

    Gods wrath is not in vain but its only directed to our old Adamic nature...Our 1st man is of the earth earthy but the 2 nd man

    is the Lord from Heaven....Thats the new man that is formed in us via his seeds of the Sower the words of the Jesus..God

    We have to keep in mind what Jesus said....I come not to destroy mens lives but to save mens lives...Our old man is in rank

    with satan and is the man that returns to his vomit and the sow that returns to her mud...And is in rank with the Tares.. Satan..

    But the Woman is the world that births The Child of Promise...His Wrath is only directed to Satan's seed our old adamic nature

    2 nd Peter 2:22 ...The Tares cannot stay clean they answer to Satans seed that are constantly at war with the Wheat which is

    a Baby Christ ...Rev.12 :5 is a perfect picture of the war that rages within us...The dragon is at war with the Woman ...

    And her seed the manchild which is the H.G. The Gift of God...Its Kingdom against Kingdom....Jesus wants to kill everyone of us

    But only according to our old adamic nature that is in rank with Satan...The slain of the Lord will be many...Outta of his mouth

    goes a sharp sword that he will smite the nations...He treadeth the Wrath of God and fierceness of God Almighty...But thats only

    That the Blood of the lamb might be applied to everyone of us....Thus his wrath will be turned to his love...Whom the Lord

    Loveth he chastens...If he didn't love us there wd be no Wrath...But God so loved the world that he gave us his only son that

    whosoever believeth in him might have eternal life....This is the result of his Wrath..His Blood....If i be lifted up I will draw

    ALL men unto me....I was found of them that sought me not and i was made manifest unto them that asked not after me...Its

    His Love that is gonna draw all men unto him....Even them that sought me not...Thats everybody. A number that no man can

    count..Of all nations...Gbu

    Dear Heavenly Father, we ask in Jesus' name, that you will cause people who are stranded in the waters of Hurricane Ian to reach safety. We ask that those displaced by this hurricane find shelter and food and provision from those who are generous t help them. We ask that you reunite family members who have been separated by this hurricane so that they can work together to endure the aftermath of this great storm. We ask that You will send helpers who will use their skills to rescue, house, provide food and medical care, and other needed assistance to the people affected by this hurricane. Father, we ask that You will break apart the strength of this hurricane and cause it to dissipate quickly. Amen.

  • GiGi - In Reply on Colossians 1 - 2 years ago
    Hello Chuck,

    I have heard that this word "perfect" means "complete" rather than flawless. But even this rendering does not really explain what Paul is meaning by this phrase. Perhaps he is talking about being sure that those who respond to the Gospel with belief have been matured in faith by sound teaching and/or ensuring that those who respond the Gospel with belief truly understand the salvation they now possess. Or perhaps he is talking about these people having faith that endures to the the end of their lives so that they will stand before God with the righteousness of Jesus and no merit of themselves.

    I hope that someone else will respond with a better explanation than I give here.

    When the Lord is differentiating between Lily's of the field not toiling when they grow--in contrast to perhaps other lilies (because there are water lilies as well), the Lord also says, they don't spin.

    What is the actual meaning of this word in context to the rest of the Scripture verse?

    I have noticed that water lilies have a sort of cork screw vine that does have the appearance of a coiling process in its birth to the surface of the pond. It kind of reminds me of a babies natural, physical movement in the birth canal. The baby does turn--essentially it does spin or turn like a cork

    screw.

    What is the Lord telling us when He says that the Lily does not spin?

  • Chuck Boyer on Colossians 1 - 2 years ago
    In Colossians 1: verse 28, what is Paul stressing with "that we present every man perfect in Christ Jesus." Knowing that man, even with the gospel and the Spirit of the Lord within, does not remain perfect. Thank you!

  • Alex1939 - In Reply on Psalms 50 - 2 years ago
    Jeanette may i give you my take on the order of Gods Business...The 2 Covenants ...1st was the Old Covenant, redemption by the blood of bullls and goats...The levitical Priest hood....But God found fault with the Levitical priesthood....Promising a New Covenant by his own blood....A 2 nd Covenant by the blood of the The lamb of God... Acts 20:28....But they had to be in order as 1 st and 2 nd...That we might see the futility of mans righteousness via the blood of bulls and goats...The Levitical Priesthood....vs the Melchizedek Priesthood....An everlasting Covenant ( Kingdom )...David comes to mind There was none righteous no not one under this levitical Priesthood...Behold the lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world...The 1st Covenant answers to the night light a lesser light...But the 2 nd Covenant is like day light a GREATER LIGHT and there will be no night there where we are going...The Kingdom...It also answers to the 2 words the written word and the living word...1 is death and 1 is life as my words are spirit and life....But the letter is the written word and no eternal life in written words...a killer... The written word is truly manna but they all died in the wilderness ...But the 2 nd Covenant is his flesh and blood the living Words and if any man eats of my flesh and blood he will neva die....But this 2 nd covenant is hid from the wise and prudent but reveled unto babes and sucklings...Until the book is opened....AND GOD POURS OUT OF HIS SPIRIT ON ALL FLESH... Joel 2 :28...I will know them ALL from the least to the greatest... Jeremiah 31:34...k lemme go.
