2Peter 2,
Hopefully these help
Why do you say that this post is your farewell message? Are you ceasing your participation here? I hope not. You add a perspective to our discussions that is of value and causes me to think on matters more deeply and go to Scripture for answers. That is always a good thing.
so, I hope you will continue with us here. Blessings to you today.
Exodus 4:12, Deuteronomy 4, Deuteronomy 5:31, Deuteronomy 6:7, Matthew 5:19, 1Timothy 4:11,
2Timothy 2:15, Jeremiah 1:7,
Why do you ask? I hope these help answer the root question
GOD is good: John 3:16,17, 2Peter 3:9, Psalms 22:24, Psalms 111:4, Psalms 139, Matthew 9:36, Psalms 86:15, Matthew 14:14, Read Matthew, Mark, Luke & John. 1John 4:19,
Matthew 25:31-46, 2Kings 13:23, Jeremiah 12:15, Revelation 21,
Genesis 45:4,5,7, 1Corinthians 4:5,
Great: Job 40,-41, Psalms 147:5, Psalms 95:3, Jeremiah 10:6, Psalms 36:6, Psalms 50:6,
Hopefully these are useful as you ponder GOD's goodness & greatness
I'm not sure if your question was about GOD or man. I will try my best to answer it. Ironically " ambiguous " meaning double meaning._._
I think that GOD's WORD the Bible is clear, when we study, & pray for wisdom. James 1:5,
1st GOD gave people dominion: Genesis 1:26,27,28, = power, dominion ect. Within 2nd Generation & continued; 1st crime: Genesis 4:6-9, & Genesis 4:23, dominion with disregard for others, even anothers very life. Genesis 6:5, Exodus 1:8,13,16,22, even disregard for life of children
Even then though GOD doesn't disregard HE repayed. Exodus 12:29, Exodus 13:15, notice the whole chapter of Exodus 12, points to John 3:15,16,17, Again people with dominion & power disregarding life of innocent: Luke 22:1,2,7,20,54,63,64, continued; Luke 23:1,2,15,21,33,34,
Also: they killed their own children, Leviticus 18:21, Leviticus 20:1-8, that GOD had destroyed nations for that sin! 1Kings 11:7, 2Kings 23:10,
Jeremiah 32:35, ( how? ) it's unimaginable even to GOD ALMIGHTY ! Jeremiah 7:31, Jeremiah 19:5, 2Chronicles 33:9, 1Kings 11:1-12, Deuteronomy 6:14, Deuteronomy 7:1-8, why? Was it because they destroyed the children, had disregard for innocent lives of their own offspring? Images of GOD
Psalms 82:6, in context Psalms 82,
GOD will Judge: Matthew 25:31-46, Matthew 18:5,6,10,14, Matthew 19:14, Mark 9:42, Luke 17:2, 2Peter 2:7-9, Psalms 9:7,
If your question is regarding "us" "believers" Luke 12:32, Revelation 21,
There will be suffering here on Earth but promises to those who endure, Matthew 24, Mark 13, Revelation 10, 2Timothy 2:3, Revelation 6:9-11,
Hopefully these are helpful
There are some precise specifics GOD has not revealed.
(1) We must learn (v.32a), and know (v.32b; 33b) that CHRIST will return.
(2) GOD The FATHER simply has not revealed the precise time CHRIST will return. This unknown prohibits man's tendency to calculate and predict the exact time JESUS CHRIST will return.
(3) This unknown must prompt Christians' motivation to perpetually watch and always prepare for that event. Compare Mark 13:33:
"But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in Heaven, neither The SON, but The FATHER."
Notice Mark's interesting addition of the expression "neither The SON", which is unique to Mark. Does this contradict the Doctrine of JESUS' DIVINE Attribute of Omniscience? Not so. Although "equal with GOD" ( Php. 2:6), LORD JESUS' humanity, particularly "of no reputation, [in] the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men" ( Php. 2:7), appeared to restrict HIM somewhat by design. GOD never tires, sleeps, hungers, thirsts, or suffers as man does, yet JESUS CHRIST endured all these human experiences.
CHRIST's humanity seemed to limit HIS Attributes of DEITY to some degree. Otherwise, why would Doctor Luke proclaim,
"JESUS increased in Wisdom and Stature, and in Favor with GOD and man" (Lu. 2:52).
Does this "increasing" suggest GOD The FATHER temporarily limited HIS SON's Omniscience to some degree while in HIS humanity? Was The SON OF MAN oblivious to the storm while asleep in the boat during the storm ( Mt. 8:24; Mk. 4:38; Lu. 8:23)?
Evidently, the knowledge of "that Day and Hour" when LORD JESUS CHRIST will come again is limited solely to "MY FATHER only" (v.36), for as LORD JESUS proclaimed in another context, certain things was "not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of MY FATHER" ( Mt. 20:23).
Other commentators believe that these Nicolaitans were not so called from any man, but from the Greek word Nicolah, meaning "let us eat," as they often encouraged each other to eat things offered to idols. Whichever theory is true, it is certain that the deeds of the Nicolaitans were an abomination to Christ. They, like the Gnostics and other false teachers, abused the doctrine of grace and tried to introduce licentiousness in its place ( 2 Peter 2:15, 19; Jude 1:4).
Jesus commends the church of Ephesus for hating the deeds of the Nicolaitans as He does ( Revelation 2:6). No doubt the leaders of the Ephesian church protected their flock from these destructive heresies and kept their people from committing the same evil deeds. All sin is hateful to Christ, as it should be to His followers, as we hate men's evil deeds, not the men themselves. For the church at Pergamos, Jesus had not commendation, but censure. Unlike the Ephesians, they actually embraced the teachings of the Nicolaitans ( Revelation 2:15). Jesus warns them that unless they repent, they are in danger of the judgment that is sure to fall on those who teach false doctrine, attack His church, and destroy His people. The sword of judgment is poised over their heads, and His patience is not limitless ( Revelation 2:16; 19:15).
Ezekiel 18:4 View whole chapter
Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
If you read the rest of Ezekiel 18, you will see that Satan is a hunter of souls. God is at war with him.
Jesus went to the Cross willingly, to make payment for your souls eternal home with Him.

out on the red landing page you came in these chat rooms on. It is a decision that must be settled before our physical death.
May you find peace and safety in Jesus today.
It would be my last dollar.
How our God loves them! They know Him even as He knows them!
The power they have from above!
The power to look past the works of Satan. These the children who reside under the shelter, who wait for His comming!
They know they need the physician, they know where He is. Yet, they are still prevented from those who have the power!
These who say,these are wine bibber's, friends of sinners!
Now you must see Him, as He lives with the homeless. If you do not now, you will soon See Him as He is.
In the person of His Son ,Jesus the Christ! You must be born again!
Repent and be Baptized
Thank you for clarifying that. Again I do agree that we have to be careful. I just don't agree that an opinion requires scripture proof. To me, that's what it looks like you said. I am not a mind reader so I had no way of knowing why you said that. I took your statement for what it said, not making an assumption on what it said. But thanks again for clarifying. Also, you did not answer my question. Is biblical proof required for an opinion?
The Lord watches over His children, no worries!! We are all praying for you through this gall bladder surgery!!!
God Bless You!!! You sister ,Denise!!!! In Jesus name we all pray, Amen!!!!!
Isaiah 40:11,31, Matthew 18:2,10, Psalms 68:5, Jeremiah 49:11, Psalms 146:9, Psalms 18:27, Psalms 140:12,
Hopefully there are some within these scriptures that you'll find helpful
One can read of the genealogy of the bloodline of Adam to Christ "in scripture" that is if one believes scripture, and (not spin it) by misinterpreting something; In Matthew 1 called THE scroll of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham.
Also, one can read of genealogy, the generations of, and the Sons OF, beginning with Genesis 5.
Genealogy --- : an account of the descent of a person, family, or group from an ancestor or from older forms-- the study of family ancestral lines
If you need help, pray!!!
I'm so Happy you're starting to read the Bible! I like starting in Luke myself because it's like straight to the point, shorter with a direct point of view. Matthew, Mark, Luke & John all are perspectives of Jesus' life. I like that Luke 1, Luke 2, shows more clearly the birth of Jesus, the explanation of how miraculous Jesus' birth was in itself but the miracles of fulfilling scripture from ancient prophecy even in His birth, & as a babe. I like how Luke even states: Luke 1:1-3,
Matthew starts with the birth lineage of Jesus as the documents of records, also important to prove prophecy fulfilled & verify Jesus was who HE said He was. Notice: Matthew 1:17,18,
Luke also addresses the family line, ( lineage ) Luke 3:38, also addresses your questions son of GOD in the natural & Son of GOD in the Supernatural.
Hopefully these are helpful
In light of the time of Jacob's trouble (Jeremiaha 30:7) it is clear that God has a plan for the Jews as a nation and as a whole. We see this also in Romans 11:25; indicating the "fullness of the Gentiles coming in" which would be the end of the church age.
I am not one who argues between dispensation and covenants; as I see both at play here. God has in a sense at that point ended the "Age of Grace" although obviously those saved in all dispensations were saved by grace ( Romans 4). Right now the wickedness is being restrained by the presence of the Body of Christ; the true remnant who are Spirit filled. God did have promises as to the Promised Land and its boundaries; as well as the house of God being a place for prayer for all people. The atoning sacrifice of Christ was able to bring a New covenant as to how God's people were required to worship; and it opened it up in general for Gentile nations. As Christ stated the "Gospel of the Kingdom" ( Matt. 24:14) won't be preached to all the cities of Israel until the Son of Man returns. It was cut short and is held back by politics; it will resume in full after the Rapture.
It is interesting that we agree on the lukewarm Christians and their fate here. I tend to look at it backwards from normal logic; that once all the distractions as to the calling and producing fruit are gone (after the Rapture) that these individuals will finally live in the Spirit even as they are dying physically. Their identity in Christ right now is choked out; they likely are fearing death greatly; and are being held captive against their will (i.e. the life of Christ within them) because besetting sins have been strangling their growth. Persecution and martyrdom; consequently will be a great release; and there is not going to be an issue there for those who have Christ in this type of sacrifice. Again; it seems somehow that the sounding of the 7th Trumpet the "mystery" will be complete which I would say is the end of the church age.
It seems the 144,000 are translated (as they aren't mentioned with those under the altar). It seems that those not taking the mark are part of a later group or the great multitude. Anyway; thanks for your input.
.....Jesus was the living WORD made flesh and blood....It was God that impregnated Mary with his word....Mans seed had absolutetly nothin to do with Marys conception....But Romans 1:3 concerning Jesus that was made of the seed of David according to the flesh....But that flesh was Mary...Not according to any man's seed....It was DAVID that said its the Lords doings and is precious in our eyes....It was the Lords seed not mans seed.
......The Lamb of GOD had to be a Perfect Lamb....Could not have any spots or stains....He cd not carry that awful stain and curse of adam thats y it had to a virgin birth....There was none righteous no not one...Thus Mary had to be impregnated by God himself....Via his seed the living word...gbu
You don't have room to talk Jessie, I see your ignorance throughout but only correct you for edification purposes when you tried to correct me,,, This is straight up ignorance of scripture, associating me of evil and untruths, whereby I take very seriously.
I will debate you on who the first Murderer was/is; but you're missing the point of me being accused of the serpent seed's existence being untrue and evil for a few crumbs on standing up for your friends blatant ignorance, when there is SO much written on it.
The point of the verse is to show the serpents son/bloodline, "Ye are from your father the devil", and the strong desires of your father ye will to do; whereby your friend called it evil and untrue, when there is SO much written on it,,,did you jump in and correct her?No,,,For all I know, this could be You sticking up for yourself...
May I correct you in saying, It was John prophesying/speaking of Jesus's words if you want to get technical,,, Cain the Son of the Serpent,The Devil, Murdered his brother.
Again, I will debate you on who the first murderer was.
His ministry, and the events thereof are singled out and emphasized which set forth His claims as the Messiah;sent to fulfill all the prophecies concerning Him.
*Ten Parables
*Two Miracles
*Nine Special Discourses
*Six events in connection with His Passion
It begins with the Four events connected with His infancy
Yeah Become familiar with Jesus is good Advice,,, But bare in mind at some point, when you don't know what happens in the beginning; you won't fully understand the events which take place throughout, and why.
