One evangelist gives some details that the other doesn't. So it seems in the beginning they both mocked Jesus. But as time passed by, one of them was moved by Jesus' behavior on the cross and changed his mind. God's provision allowed for four gospels to be written, so that one complements the others and we have the full story..GBU
Romans 10:17 "So then FAITH cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."
b. Faith is a fruit of the Holly Spirit. (ie by praying in Spirit)
Galatians 5:22-23 "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, FAITH , Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law."
c. Faith is a GIFT from God. So ask God for faith.
1 Corinthians 12:8-10 "For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
To another FAITH by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:"
d. FAITH is also increased through the actions of God in one's life. When did Paul believe in Jesus? When he saw Him on his way to Damascus. When did Sergius Paulus in Cyprus believe in Paul's preaching? When he saw that sorcerer Elymas getting blind. Acts 13.
16 To reveal His Son in me, in order that I might preach Him among the Gentiles ; immediately I conferred not with any human being:
Paul is stating how God chose(set apart)him before he was born, and called him unto grace to reveal Jesus in Him/Paul to preach salvation among the Gentiles.
God chose Paul before he was born to teach the Son of GOD/GOD to the gentiles, that person is wrong,,,
All the Apostles/prophets were chosen before the their mothers womb,,,, they are the set aside one's
I appreciate your response as well, but if you read both passages they differ in statements.
1 passage says both mocked or ridiculed him the other states only 1 mocked him.
With that being said read again for your self.
Now pertaining to my Salvation, It is the Blood of JESUS that has washed away all my sin.I acknowledge
that JESUS CHRIST is LORD, (GOD IN THE FLESH) and I have been Baptized(Full immersion).
I personally think gambling is fine and not a sin as long as it does not come between you and God and is not a stronghold, is not an addiction or a love, and is not through "vanity." Proverbs 13:11. Strong's says vanity is something transitory or unsatisfactory. Others translate this into dishonesty or fraud. I'm currently not thinking this applies to wagering money, but perhaps tax collecting, crooked attorneys, ponzi schemes, surprise fees, billing department dishonesty, or perhaps other activities that are illegal and deceive and harm people.
My personal view on this is that all of life involves risk and not just with money, but with our time, relationships, activities, work, etc. Naturally we try to mitigate risk and seize opportunities. Investing is Biblical, but involves risk, such as the stock market. Buying insurance is betting against yourself, so that's gambling too. So does trying a new restaurant or accepting a new job or moving. So, in my current understanding I don't believe gambling is a sin, but I am open to anyone's Bible verses to support another view and specifically what someone thinks wealth through vanity means. God bless.

About Nicolaitans one can find s lot of information on the internet. Many christian historians write about them but it seems they don't always agree with one another. It seems it was a mixture of a mystic philosophy and christianity probably the same as gnosticism. It probably had to do with allowing fornication in the church or something like that. It must have been something really terrible so Jesus said He hates their works. Like today's many so called christian cults that use Jesus name to propagate evil practices. That shows that if we do not guard our faith many weird things may come in.
God's moral government set forth.
Most by now have caught onto their corruption and theft, but they are prioritizing their own personal profits over the wellbeing of its hardworking citizens. They also don't investigate themselves and seems that the DOJ is either part of it or paid off. They win, you lose. We have not yet seen the massive fallout of this to happen in the next 6-12 months.
Many corrupt governments have done this throughout history, but I have never seen it so bad in the United States. I know God allows leaders to come and go and sometimes fall into their own folly. It's heartbreaking to know how this will devastate innocent struggling people though and how some may likely kill themselves over this. Some churches may not survive this either, as hard as the lockdowns were already and the when 30%-50% of all money is stolen from everyone, they will realize what's going on after its too late. Thanks for your prayers.
Creation. But when Satan tricked Adam and Eve that authority was handed over
To Satan and that's why He is called God of this world which is why this world is
In the condition it's in. But thank God that through Jesus Christ us who believe
Walk in the God given ability to conqueror the enemy when we believe.
Receive God's Spirit or Holy Spirit we receive the faith of Jesus Christ which
Is what we are sealed with. Now as we walk via the spirit and God's word our
Mind believes greater and we produce the results fruits of the spirit and signs
Miracles and wonders that comes to pass according to believing.

It will probably have a different meaning to whoever is reading it. It is a book about wisdom and how to live wisely, the family, life, death, prayer, pride, knowledge, trust, discipline, maybe even stumping your toe, I could go on. If you have not read it, you need to. Many times, if we are struggling with something in our life the Holy Spirit can highlight words that will help, it is like the words stand up out of the page. You can see yourself in it, you can see God in it, you can see Jesus in it, and you can see many answers, directions, conformations, and most things we deal with in our life.
Just a short view may others add to it.
God bless,

From a loving God that wants us to know His Will or ways and what to do or
Avoid.

I don't know how far you were allowed to walk on the sabbath day. People had to feed and water their animals every day, including the sabbath, they prepared their meals, which meant possibly carrying water from the well for them and the livestock.
The Mt. of Olives is about a half mile from Jerusalem, so I would suppose you could travel about a half of a mile on the sabbath.
A sabbath days journey.
Take this comment with a grain of salt, my opinion, there are others with more knowledge of Old Israel.
God Bless You!

......Thats y he is saying That which is born of the spirit is spirit...Which is the H.G. the Promise Child the Granson....As the H.G. has to come in his name meaning he has to know us, if he does not know us there is no good seed sown in our hearts thus no H.G. no Child of Promise...No kingdom....Jesus said that the father wd send the H.G. in my name meaning by his seed the word... John 14 :26 kjv ...Thats y Isaiah refers to Jesus as everlasting FATHER...Jesus is the father of the H.G....Simply b/c the H.G. cannot be born in us without his seed....Thats y he has to know us...Thus he is truly the father of the H.G.
Thus The Kingdom is Truly a Father son and Granson scenario...That is gona be multiplied as the Stars of Heaven.....Remember God asked Abraham can you count the stars so shall thy seed be which is the seed of Christ Jesus... Gal. 3:16 KJV
Isaiah 58, Ezra 8:21, Daniel 9, Matthew 17:14-21, Mark 9:17-29, Joel 2:12,14,15, Acts 10:30-31, 1Corinthians 7:2-5, Matthew 6:16,17,18,
Esther 4, context begins in previous chapters including Esther 1, explaning her heritage & by wisdom they had kept it silent.
Daniel 6:18, Jonah 3:4-10, notice these two noted here were not known as Godly people yet even their fast was recognized & rewarded by GOD, repentance & humbling themselves, before GOD.
Hopefully these are helpful in your study
