Hi Marlene, I made a research and found out that:

The original Hebrew reads "Hkthnth phsim" which is translated as "tunic of distinction" and further interpreted (by Jews) as "a coat of [many] colours". The Septuagint (Greek) text says "chitona poikilon" which means "tunic of many [colours]".

Genesis 24 is the best romance chapter in the Bible.

I have a friend in another state that has looked for a wife for 15 years, in the same lounge where all his friends go. He's retired now, not having any luck sitting on the sofa watching movies :/

I have this speech: YOURE HUNTING IN THE WRONG FOREST. He's a hunter!? I said don't you go hunting where you have good odds for shooting game that you can eat? Yes. A target rich environment? You're not going to find a quality woman to be a wife, in a bar!

Try a coffee shop with food too. No politics.

Stroll through a park, sit on a bench. Make eye contact.

If the Forest is empty, try something else. Join the YMCA and do the walk/jog path. Ask which brand of gym shoe is best?

Some Libraries have People who read aloud to parents or grandmothers, with grandchildren along. Anybody can sit in. Gotta get comfortable in the Forest. Take a CPR class.

Best place to find a compatible mate is at Church. Be equally yoked (both Christian). Join singles group. They go to dinner and movies often. Exchange numbers. Host a spaghetti dinner. Everyone brings sides. Take a turn at helping in the nursery.

We know the Lords perfect union is a couple. Adam and Eve. People have babies into their 30's. Guys wanna know if your checkbook is balanced, you have savings, you maintain your car, you share the remote control, you're a Christian who worships Jesus w/o compromise. You are FUN to be with. A baby, without relationship is Hollow.

Little kids love me. Why? exchange knock knock jokes, build tall block towers, tell Bible Stories from memory with sounds; Bible Hopscotch: Matthew, Mark, Luke, John

SECRET: The Servant In Genesis 24 represents the Holy Spirit. Pray for Him to Bring You, To Your Husband. Water his camels and look happy and fresh.

Read the Book of Ruth. Find Boaz.

The KJBV rooms are the BEST FOREST OF ALL !!

God is always concerned in Jesus Christ Name Amen !

1 Corinthians 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. ( Paul didn't say he knew it all) I really doubt anyone else does.

Revelation 1:9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

10 (I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day), and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,

Was in the Spirit of the Lord and writing what he was told. So many have tried but have been wrong.

There has been a lot of books written on the subject of Angels; not all of them are good.

All angels, (even Lucifer/Satan) were created by God__for God. That's scripture.

So, we cannot order the Angels to do things for us. We pray to God to send us angels for specific reasons. Pray always in Jesus's name. Give thanks.

I never talk to my angels but I do play gospel music in my home. Evil spirits don't care for happiness or uplifting tunes. I never leave a TV on for "White Noise." Satan is the prince of the power of the air.

I can definitely say that angels DO NOT scare us, cause fears, accidents, or cause strained relations with neighbors. That's evil Fruit.

We're "ambassadors" for the Kingdom.

If you have teens__ asking God to send an angel with them when they are out of the home is a good thing. I never allowed my son to hang offensive, rock group posters in his room. We went to a Garden Ridge and got classier posters. When he started driving solo, yep_God let the angels ride with the kids lol. I pray for all young people on motorcycles. You're welcome :D

I'm not certain I think they like Itzhak Perlman violin tunes?

Hi Marlene,

Interesting question. I clicked on the verse then scrolled down to the Strong's translation info and then viewed other translations on that page and it does appear some interpreted it as a long coat but others many colors. I believe there are some in this forum that speak Hebrew so it would be nice to get their opinion when they read the original Hebrew.

Amen. John 1:2-3 debunks the false doctrine of Jesus being "created" and some try to retrofit the word "begotten" word to make it seem like it means that instead of its actual meaning "only". I wonder where this recent movement trying to deny Jesus's divinity originates from, because it seems like a recent attack, perhaps even coordinated.

Thanks Chris for your reply! I agree with the thought that the "Word was with God and the Word was God". I think the difference in beliefs is what happened when the in Word was made flesh. John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. I believe he was full of "grace and truth". He carried nature of God, but needed the grace of God and had to access it like we do. That is why he prayed, fasted, etc to resist temptation. Luke 2:40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him. v 52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man. Isaiah 11:3 And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears: I believe he reflected his father at all times. Hebrews 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; The following verse to me is interesting indicating that we have been given the glory that God gave him. John 17:22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: A mystery I have: is when was he considered the begotten Son and when did that happen. Psalm 2:7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. These thoughts are not all inclusive, but enough hopefully to clear any misunderstandings.

Job was right with God. He was very conscious to give honor and praise. Satan saw this and wanted to prove he could trip up Job. But God knew what kind of faith Job had.

Satan had studied Job making sacrifices for his kids to be sure everything was covered. (The children liked to have parties). So Satan thought that would cripple Jobs faith! He attacked the kids, the houses, animals.

IT WAS SATAN in the wind storm (like a tornado), that wiped out everything Job had and loved. It Wasn't God that did it. He doesn't cause the tragedies that happen in our lives. Satan even sent "concerned friends to drop by and try to tear apart Jobs faith. Terrible things happen. Loss, heartbreak. SATAN is the one that ACCUSES US that our faith is belly up Done. He is the accuser of the brethren. That reality should cause us to do what Job did. In his pain, he sat and waited on God; believed God loved him; God didn't cause this. Dead or alive, he was going to believe in his Lord. Because God is Love. God is good. That's what we all must remember.

This one book tells us what God is like. No matter our losses, fears, and doubts about the future; God will get us through it.

In the New Testament, Jesus teaches that THROUGH HIM AND HIS AUTHORITY over everything: He (deputized) Authorized Believers, to use His Authority just as He used it. He cast out Satan and every demon..causing harm, loss, sickness, to show His disciples how to carry it forward after his departure back to heaven.

We are His Disciples! Every blood bought Christian has been AUTHORIZED to use the NAME OF JESUS. IN JESUS NAME Command cancer to COME OUT, bow it's knee and GO..INTO OUTER DARKNESS! DO NOT RETURN.

DO NOT LISTEN to the lying demons that will say God failed you. Like Job, wait upon God and PRAISE HIM NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS.

Fight, rest, repeat.

Lord we need another great awakening. I pray for revival in our nation. Again. In my personal walk with You. I'm in a time of discouragement probably due to health issues. Forgive me Father God.

Virgie, I'm praying for you.

Hi Virgie , I'm sure you must know that you are never alone , God is with you and so is Jesus , all day every day , they know exactly how you are feeling and why you are feeling this way . My advice ? Pour your heart out to God through Christ your sinless redeemer . He is waiting to hear from you , He is waiting for you to talk to Him , honestly and openly , do not be afraid to tell Him honestly , how you feel , He wants your honesty . Have you been praying regularly and reading His Word regularly ? If not , get to it girl smiley face . As for your family , are they also Christians ? Did you bring them up to be independent people ? Do they think that you are very independent and strong ? Maybe that's why they don't reach out to you too much , you brought them up too well smiley face . Perhaps if you allowed them to see a more vulnerable side to you they would respond , let them know that you miss and love them and would like to see them a bit more , sometimes you have to let your guard down a little bit with people , it's risky I know , but it can be very much worth it in the end . Also , come on here and have a chat to us , much love to you in Christ .

I have enjoyed the many scriptures that prove that Jesus is God....As Hebrews 1 : 8...But unto the Son he says thy THRONE O GOD IS FOREVER AND EVER...A Sceptre of righteousness is the Sceptre of thy Kingdom...God the Father is refering to the Son (Christ Jesus ) as God the Son and having a kingdom.

.....But what really does it for me is his ability to propagate his seed his word in the hearts of ppl causing them to birth the H.G. which is God....B/C i have spoken these words ( his seeds sorrows have filled your hearts a spritual pregnancy....that is gonna result in a Baby Christ the H.G.)....That he refers to as the Promise which is the multiplication of GOD in us....Jesus was reproducing very God with his seed when he breathe on them....Thats y he was saying that which is born of the Spirit is spirit which is the H.G. That Child of Promise....Y is the H.G. the child of Promise simply b/c he fulfilles that great Promise of multiplication of God ....When God Swore that Christ wd be multiplied as the Stars of heaven.

......And Jesus said to whom the word came ( his seed, his breath ) it made them Gods....Thus Christ is truly able to reproduce very God with his seed....And God has already told us that everything has to multiply after its kind Gen. 1 : 8 kjv ....Jesus cd not reproduce after the Spirit if he were not the GOD kind .....Everything has to multiply after its kind according to its seed these are the words of God Almighty....When ya read the parable of the Sower and his seed try to realize that the Sower of that good seed is the bridegroom thus the wheat is a Baby Christ a Baby God....Thats y he is saying whosoever receiveth one such Child in my name receiveth me...Remember God swore himself when he made that great PROMISE of multiplication....Unless ya receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in....Y is the good seed a baby Christ simply b/c that good seed is the living WORD which is the very seed of God THAT PROMISE SEED.

Psalms 14:1 and Psalm 53:1

(To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.)

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

In my experience, church positions have requirements described in the Bible. We need to follow guidelines.

2022 is a far cry from church services in 1960's. People doing Gods work need to examine themselves according to scripture.

It is not at all unusual to make an appointment with the associate Pastor to discuss any questions you might have.

Genesis 37:23 Strong's 5646 (coat of) many breadths: I found a question about this, often translated as "many colors" on Quora. The inquiry was about how this word differs in many translations. Another rendering is of many stripes. I have heard that this might refer to comprising strips of different animals' pelts. Whichever the case, it was a special coat or garment and the brothers were jealous because it separated him from them. He was his favorite son and had been treated as special compared to his brothers. They dipped it in goat's blood to take back to the father as a plot to convince him that Joseph had been killed by an animal. The quora question wanted an explanation regarding the various renderings. I tried to find this discussion in commentaries but failed. Perhaps someone else on this forum could give a more thorough explanation for me to present to the person who posted the pertaining question.

Thank you for your information I read it thank you again may all your prayers will be answered take care

Hi Eng. I noticed a long time ago, when I hit my finger with a hammer; the other hand immediately clamps the hand in pain. It happens all the time (to me). I kinda thought the Lord was showing me something?

If you watch people in any brand of Church, go to the front for prayer?

1. Women pray for women, laying a hand on the shoulder.

2. Men pray with men. Hand on shoulder.

Everyone in the pews wait to be dismissed by Pastor. If the Holy Spirit is present, it's respectful to wait until the altar call is concluded.

Good and faithful servant I'm sorry I didn't know you were/are sick . I've been mia for awhile but I will be praying that God deliver and heal you from the crown of your head to the soul of your feet . God said you are healed by his stripes in Jesus name I pray Amen.

Are we seeing with the church turning away from the true gospel of Christ the removal of God's candlesticks from the church? What about the 'falling away"?

God Bless Its a new day brothers and systers remember were Gods best and then devils pest.

Unforgiveness is sort of like a LAWSUIT without a Ruling or a Decision.

It takes way more ENERGY to maintain unforgiveness.

Forgive, in Jesus Name. Forbid Satan to keep stirring the ashes.

If that person refuses to drop the issue; that may be a friend you need to let go. Forgive. Take their name out of your contact list.

If 2 Christians "go to law" with each other, both of them are being heard in the Court of Heaven.

Our lives are harder when we don't read the Bible that often. We have great times together in here sorting through various scriptures that help explain things better. It's fun.

Reply to Chris.

Jesus, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit all exhibit the uniqueness attributable only to God, even though each is somehow spoken of as separate from God. God is Triune and therefore difficult for humans to understand. Humans also have divisions that are not easily understandable, although not separate entities like the Trinity of God. We have spirits, souls, and bodies, and they 3 are one, as we see in 1 John 5:

1 John 5:8

And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.

Another reference to the divisions in men is found in Hebrews 4:

Hebrews 4:12

For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Another example can be gleaned from Romans 7:

14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.

15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.

16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.

17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.

19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.

20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.

22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:

23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

It seems that there were those in Thessalonica who were refusing to work, assuming that since "Jesus would return at any minute", they didn't need to. Paul dispels the nonsense as laziness and reminds them of their previous policy when he was present. No work, no food.

God created man on the sixth day with two basic purposes by which he would fulfill his primary purpose to glorify God as a bearer of the Divine Image: working and multiplying. Perhaps multiplying could be left off in the New Testament Age based on Paul's teaching concerning singleness ( 1 Cor 7:7), and based on the fact that there seems to be no reproduction in eternity ( Mt 22:30). But working will be a part of our eternal existence. It is what we were made for, not only in this life but also in the next.

Each man and woman has been given a deposit of talent, energy, and resources. God will return and demand an account for our usage. Furthermore, he has promised that throughout our lives we are to live by the principle of stewardship and faithfulness, and we will be added increase as we prove capable. To refuse to work is an affront to the Creator and should not be rewarded or tolerated in the church.

The Gospel, unlike the Old Covenant, is not about rules, per se. It is about the grace of God that transforms a heart into a lover of God and his Kingdom and righteousness. But the apostles did sometimes give "rules" when necessary, and only those which accorded with grace and the Gospel. In this case, the problem of laziness was so prevalent, it had to be addressed as a rule.

There are certainly instances when a Christian is unable to work, whether because of a depressed economy, or a disability. But it is often the case that what is called inability is really an excuse for unwillingness. At nearly all costs, a human, an image-bearer of God, should make themselves useful and add value to their society.

Streetpreacher

please pray for Kristie and me today

Amen adam gbu

Amen Chris Yes that John 17 : 5 is a very strong scripture to prove without a doubt that Christ is truly God the son and was with God before the world began....

Dear Virgie, first of all, when you are saved, God seals your savation--you cannot lose it. Ephesians 1:13 "In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise." Second, we do not walk by feelings or sight, but by faith. We all feel down sometimes, feel abandoned by God, feeling unworthy, but the Bible says in Hebrews 11:1, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." When you get to feeling the way you described in your prayer request, pray through it.

Hi Gigi , if you have any doubt about the sword being a symbol for the Word of God , please read Ephesians Ch 6 , V 10-17 . This is what will be used to divide the goats from the sheep , the Word of God as spoken by Christ . We must try to keep his word or we will be judged as goats and cast away forever .

Hello Gigi , do u believe that u are an American first and a Christian second ? Or are u a Christian first and an American second ? It is true that God sanctioned violence in the Old Testament but Jesus is definately against his followers using it as I'm sure u have read and understood from your reading of the New Testament . If u can point out anywhere were Jesus sanctions the use of violence please let me know .
