    I'd like to add, if your friend is talking about Jesus being somewhere literally "to go out to see him" Jesus warned the Disciples & us 'not to believe it & not to go' please read Jesus' Words: Matthew 24:4-51, note Matthew 24:4,5,11, Matthew 24:23-27, again in: Mark 13:5-37, note: Mark 13:5-6, Mark 13:21-27,

    Other than that, Adam & "Old Man Wilson" gave good scripture.

    Sister Martha:

    John 4:24 God is Spirit .....

    Ephesians 4:4 ONE SPIRIT ...ONE BODY ...

    Ephesians 4:6 ONE GOD and FATHER OF ALL .....

    Man, born of woman, (FLESH), is like a Beast of the Earth, NO KNOWLEDGE.

    The Holy Ghost came to GIVE MAN KNOWLEDGE.

    So we can be BORN OF SPIRIT.

    God IS SPIRIT, no beginning and no end.

    God created a IMMORTAL BODY, and put inside that IMMORTAL BODY, HIS SPIRIT (Himself), and called that BODY, Jesus Christ, the first man, the TRUE ADAM, with no beginning and no end.

    Here is a PROPHECY in Genesis:

    Genesis 5:2 Male and Female created he them, and blessed them, and CALLED THEIR NAME ADAM. in the DAY they were created.

    That day (of that creation), is called the DAY OF THE LORD, the day you come out of darkness into light. You come to the KNOWLEDGE that by the RESURRECTION of Christ's NEW BODY (YOU and I) and the NEW LIFE by the SPIRIT of THE FATHER: we become ADAM, Christ was the first ADAM, before the flesh and blood Adam, we are the last, ADAM, created in Christ Jesus

    Revelation 1:8 ... Revelation 22:13 I AM Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.

    Ephesians 4:4 ....ONE BODY .......

    There is only ONE BODY that can exist in the next age, and THAT BODY is the BODY OF CHRIST.

    1 Timothy 6:16 Who only (Christ only) hath immortality, dwelling in the LIGHT ......

    1 Corinthians 15:38 But God giveth IT (the new creation in Christ) a BODY as it hath pleased him, and to ever SEED HIS (God's on body), God's BODY IS JESUS CHRIST.

    WE ARE THE BODY OF CHRIST, The Father (SPIRIT) being THE LIFE, of the BODY.

    This NEW BIRTH happens when your body of FLESH and BLOOD DIES.

    Romans 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also predestinated to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the FIRSTBORN (Alpha) among many brethren (Omega).

    God Bless You.

    Roman's chapter 1 should answer your questions.

    Also, Sodom and Gomorrah were actually melted with liquid sulphur balls. I saw an archaeologist showing on video above the area where those cities existed. No bones were found I think. They found more of the balls underwater too.

    It must've been like a Bowl of liquid sulfur emptied on the ciities. It's a great discovery because no one had been able to pinpoint it on aerial maps. I hope it's on Google soon.

    I mention this because we can be pretty sure of God's view of cities full of homosexuality and lesbianism. (sorry Ellen). It is what it is. And it's clear in Romans 1.

    As a Streetpreacher I've heard all the arguments. When Obama lit up the White House in rainbow colors, I cried. He made our nation's Capital a joke to snicker over.

    I don't argue with them. It starts riots.

    I love my Country and I honor every soldier that fought and died for this nation!! They deserve more than they got. Please let us reverence our military.

    It's legal to change your party affiliation as often as you want. The House, Senate and Congress counts CONSTITUENTS ever morning over coffee. Well, we are the constituents! We're registered on one side, or the other. We need to "clean" house. They stomp on our Constitution and Bill of Rights, and salute the Flag?!

    They've taken our oil reserves and gave it to China this week! Every week they give billions to Overseas countries. They haven't done a thing about our infrastructures. They've hijacked our baby food and formula and give it free to millions of illegal immigrants. I live in Texas and it is horrible to see this every day.

    We pay triple at the grocery and gas stations. While the Congress gets FREE LUNCH, every day on taxpayer money. Again-Reregister and vote against this madness.

    They just want our votes and step over us to get what they want. It's too expensive to ignore anymore.

    Adios Amigos, Love You!

    Lots greed made him leave Abraham his uncle and a man of God. His greed made him do business with Sodom and eventually move there. He was a man of means and had some authority. He lived there for many years and raised and married off some daughters,no boys,but still had two girls at home. His wife almost certainly was from Sodom and grew up there. He apparently never witnessed to his family and he did not live a clean life hence his son in laws mocked him. The two girls grew up in the filth of Sodom and their morals were non existent. I suspect he wanted to leave but the wife would have none of it, she probably had all her family there. The reason I say that is Hebrews said it vexed his righteous soul being there. Also, keep in mind I think he rarely kept in touch with Abraham.

  • LOTS MISTAKE REARING HIS DAUGHTERS_Gen.18 - In Reply on Genesis 19 - 3 years ago
    I don't believe it's an oversight that God did not tell us the names of Lot's two daughters. Their story is inextricably linked to their father's actions and has implications not only for young people who find themselves in difficult situations, but a warning to every parent. It's a sad story in many ways, but also reveals God's merciful and redemptive character. We don't know their names because they could be any of us, were we to find ourselves in the similar circumstances.

    [Don't Underestimate the Power of a Sinful Environment to Sear the Conscience]

    In our modern culture, we are quick to judge these two young women and assure ourselves we would never resort to such desperate actions. We would be wise to learn from their experience.

    Lot's daughters had grown up in a city where sexual immorality was commonly accepted. They were engaged to young men who scoffed at God's warning. God told Abraham, "The outcry of Sodom and Gomorrah is indeed great, and their sin is exceedingly grave" ( Genesis 18:20). Apparently, there were not even ten righteous people in the city. Being surrounded by such influences had obviously seared the consciences of these two women; their idea to have sexual relations with their father seemed a logical and acceptable solution.

    Left to ourselves, the human heart is deceitful and desperately wicked ( Jeremiah 17:9). Without the restraining and redeeming influence of God's Word and His Holy Spirit, we can't imagine the depths of sin to which we might go. Lot had failed to teach his daughters the truth about who God is; they were simply acting in accordance with the lifestyle and knowledge they had been given.

    Titus 1:14 To the pure, all things are pure; but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure, but both their mind and their conscience are defiled.

    Deuteronomy 30

  • Elijah - In Reply - 3 years ago
    Mr Priday, you never answered my question. The beast lived and was one of the 7 kings he dies and goes to hell. He is allowed to live again and yes an assassination attempt is made probably set up by him and most likely he is shot in the eye (Satanist have an obsession with what's called one eye).He cannot die because he has always died once. That's why there are 2 men whose knee will not bow or be judged because they had 2 bites of the apple--they lived and died and lived again and that is why the beast and the false prophet go straight to the lake of fire ALIVE. I would appreciate a direct answer from you and a anyone else who would like to comment!
  • WHAT IS JESUS DOING IN OUR LIFE TODAY - In Reply - 3 years ago
    John, I'm 71. I've been a Christian for 37 years now. You know there is a Link out on the red page you entered the website on: Become A Believer. It really understands those first months and years of being a Christian. No one is perfect, except for Jesus. We are in good company.

    There was a dry time in my life, when I wasn't hearing the Lords voice. He told me to go sit in a cave; another time under a shrub. He was wanting me to turn to Him in darkness, for my Light. He fed me my food from the Bible. He taught me to depend on Him and quit trying "to make things happen" faster.

    Learning to be quiet with grace, is hard. Over all the racket; to hear that still small voice say: here I am in the midst of your storm. Peace. Be still.

    I remember those nice days, going to Church with friends, then going to lunch together; movies, miniature golf etc. Jesus has much bigger work for us to do. Ask Pastor or his associate Pastor if there is anything you can help with. If helping others is beneath our skill set, we're not teachable yet. The Potters clay has to be moist and malleable for Him to make it into something useful or beautiful. Finally he thinks it's ready: into the fire we go. We are becoming useful to the Master Potter.

    No matter how lonely sometimes, or a quiet room that shouts; He's always there with us.

    Branch out and find someone who needs a kind word; a scripture; be someone who believes Heaven is a real place. Jesus will be there when we arrive.

    Tell others how to get there. The Bible says earth is not our home. We are aliens. Our home is in Jesus. Someday to see Him as he is.

    Our work isn't done yet.

    Hi Melvin , Genesis Ch 4 V 26 , Seth begat Enos : then began men to call upon the name of the Lord . The sons of God are those who believe in Him and call upon His name . Cain is a murderer , Abel is dead , I believe that the children of Seth would be the sons of God and the children of men would be the offspring of Cain . Others may disagree .
  • Alex N - In Reply on 1 Peter 1 - 3 years ago
    Hello Martha GBU.... But let me give ya slant on Spirits....They are individual....As the Trinity is Father Son and Granson...They are all 3 related...As Father Son and Granson...But 3 distinct beings...As the bible speaks of God being the Father of Spirts...As his good seed is his Word...Jesus himself was the word ( Gods Seed made flesh and blood )... Just as Abraham was multiplied as the sands of the seas...Father God swore by himself that Christ wd be multiplied as the stars of heaven....Thus an Israel of God which are individual Spirits...b/c of his seed...not the written word but the living Word...Thats y the sower of that good Seed a spiritual seed will multiply very God....Thats y Jesus is saying to whom the Word came ( his seed ) it made them Gods plural thus we see that Spirits can be born in humanity.

    ...When Jesus breath on them he was propagating very God ( spirits ) with his breath which was his Word...And the H.G. was born in them some days later...Thats y he said that which is born of the spirit is spirit...They don't call Jesus the bridegroom for nothin, He has a seed to sow in humanity...And the Child is the H.G. THAT WAS THE GREAT PROMISE THAT CHRIST WD BE MULTIPLIED AS THE STARS OF HEAVEN IN MULTITUDE...And when God swore by his self implied this multiplication wd be the Regeneration of VERY GOD...And Hebrews 9 : 12 Refers to God as the FATHER OF SPIRITS.which are th New Born babes desiring the sincere milk of the word,..Thats y the sower will go forth to sow his precious seed ( the word ) in humanity...That we might birth a Baby Christ the H.G. that Child of PROMISE...Natural Israel were humans...But the Israel of God are Spirits that are gonna be born in us sinners...Our New HEART and New Spirits are the result of his seed the words of that New Covenant living words...meaning living spirits all distinct living beings..Each Spirit an indiviual living being ..The Babes and Sucklings he mentions are SPIRITS that are gonna BE BORN IN US SINNERS.

  • Snlopez on Genesis 19 - 3 years ago
    Why, if Lot was a good man, he offers his own daughters to be taken instead of the visitors?

    What father, in their right mind would give their daughters to a mob of man?

    Why did lot mock when he spoke to his sons in law?

    What kind of daughters were these to do what they did to their father?
  • THE END OF DAYS HAPPENING FAST - In Reply on Revelation 17 - 3 years ago
    There are many views on what you mentioned. I think you would learn a lot on Nelson Walters videos on YouTube. He shows maps and explanations for his views on prophesy. Rather than ask the question and get many replies. Erick Stakelbeck's videos are helpful too. He is a Jewish believer in Jesus as his Messiah.

    Like me, view Nelson's teachings and take rapid notes, all of the scriptures he gives, and look them up for yourself, in your Bible. I hope your Bible has maps; if not you can Google maps on Bible Prophesy.

    We live in very exciting days! Jesus will be returning soon. Is very important to become a Christian and be ready for Messiah Jesus's return to earth.

    I used to believe strongly that Rome was the whore of Babylon because of all the strange demonic art and paintings; secret rooms in the basement of the Vatican.

    There are secret societies in Washington DC as well.

    Rather than get all wrapped up in those mysteries, I think our time would be better served building up our Churches, evangelizing the unsaved, and doing what Jesus told us to do in the New Testament of the Bible.

    We're here to edify and build up the Church of Jesus Christ. If we've learned nothing else in the past 2 years, it would be not to put our faith and trust in politicians.

    Put your trust in Jesus, who can save our souls. Look forward as I do, to receive my resurrection body and enter heaven.

    Keep visiting this website, there are many good teachers in here.

    Hi Danny.

    When it comes to Power you have none apart from what is granted by the Holyspirit.

    John 15:5.

    I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

    Luke 24:49.

    And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.

    I hope this helps.

    God bless.

    I suppose this is what you are meaning.

    Acts 3:6 Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I (none); but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.

    I Timothy 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself. (6) But godliness with contentment is great gain.

    Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

  • Everybody in here Loves You - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 3 years ago
    You need to go to Walmart or sometimes the Goodwill Stores:

    Find a King James Bible, hopefully with Red letters in the New Testament. They are not expensive.

    If we're fixing a huge project on our homes, we might stop and watch some videos or Google it. Some people even have DO-IT-YOURSELF Handbooks.

    You need to get a Bible and read 3 chapters a day. Pray over what you read. Ask Jesus when you have questions, or come back here. :D

    John 3, tells us how to be born again and receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Jesus chooses US. He desires for us to discover the the God of this Bible. He is the definition of LOVE. Agape Love.

    He is your ABBA. That means your Daddy. You can approach Him with all your joys, fears, hopes and dreams of the future; and the crushing failures. We all do it. He picks us back up and loves us to wellness again.

    We walk away sometimes because of things we think will separate us from Him (sins). That's Why God gave Jesus to the world! He became our sin, so we could walk forward in His Righteousness, instead of our puny attempts at it.

    It's a whole new family, and the Bible tells us we are loved; accepted in the Beloved; part of the Family of God.

    We are his heirs. Ask for what you need, and then receive it. Matthew 4-5

    The Bible has 2 Testaments in it. Both were ratified in blood. The testator had to die for the Testament to be in force. Jesus gave all he had to be our Savior and Lord. He knows us inside and outside. He took all our sins and nailed them to his cross. He asks us to Come and believe on Him.

    He doesn't toss us out in the lake without teaching us to swim first :) We all came to Him the same way (real needy)

    There is a full Bible on this website__with Commentary; a link to "how to become a believer". Also other people have told their 'Testimonies' of how they came to Jesus.

    Check it out.

    We are a family in this room. All different. Some soft, and some animated. I love you all.

    21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

    22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:

    23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
  • Recognizing Cults - In Reply - 3 years ago
    WHAT IS A CULT- The Dangers of False TeachingsThese groups do not lead to the Christ of the Bible, but to another Jesus and another gospel (2Cor.11:1-4; Gal.1:8,9).

    We must therefore reject these false teachings, and "earnestly contend for the faith which was once and for all delivered to the saints" (Jude3).

    And, of course, remember the Bible also goes on to admonish us that we must do this with gentleness, and with respect. Remember, you must present the message, but you need to recognize that it is only the Holy Spirit that changes the heart.

    WHAT IS A CULT- Psuedo-Christian CultsThese groups deny or distort fundamental Christian doctrines such as the Trinity, the deity of Christ, and salvation by grace through faith alone. Some cults that would fall into this category are the Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, Christian Science, The Way International, and the Unity School of Christianity.

    Most of these cults claim to be Christian, and even consider the Bible to be authoritative. But they manipulate the Scriptures to fit their own beliefs. Although they may claim to serve Jesus Christ, and may even use the same terminology orthodox Christians use, their definitions are vastly different.

    There are two ways to define a cult. The first way to describe a cult is popular in the secular media. From this perspective, a cult is a religious or semi-religious sect whose members are controlled almost entirely by a single individual or by an organization.

    Compare everything to the Bible. A true Christian Church will not encourage sinful lifestyles. They will patiently teach the Truth and pray for the Holy Spirit to convict the persons heart.

    Jeremiah 17:9

    The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?

    Beloveds, for some the bottom line is money, popularity, and converts to their heretical teachings.

  • THE ENDS OF THE EARTH - In Reply - 3 years ago
    I hope this is what you were looking for. I know people say things like, "I'll love you to the ends of the earth."

    I'm not sure it's the same as scriptures. This is just a little slice of a larger pool of scripture. You might enjoy learning how to use the SEARCH ENGINE out on the red page where you come into this website.

    Even just remembering a part of a scripture, it will do its best to find everything with that hint.

    Acts 13:47

    For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ENDS OF THE EARTH.

    Romans 10:18

    But I say, Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world.

    1 Corinthians 10:11

    Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

    2 Peter 3:7

    But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto FIRE against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

    Revelation 1:7

    Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.

    Revelation 5:3

    And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.

    Mark 16:15

    And he said unto them, Go ye into ALL of the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

  • Tianyuying on Revelation 6:6 - 3 years ago
    The beast that came out of the sea is symbol of the Greek culture,substitute of Satan,Sea is symbol of the human world of the overseas,of the nations, not of the western countries:the Renaissance Greek culture,with tints of the other three great cultures of the world, namely, Confucianism, Buddhism and Islamism.-----the Antichrist

    The beast that came out of the earth is a product of the western land proper, a prophet, a spokesperson for the Renaissance Greek culture, whose name is 666, of which the basic grammar of the greek language, the declensions of the Greek noun: singular, dual, plural,masculine, faminine and neutral, there is one 6. The conjugtion of the Greek verb are:present, past, future, perfect, imperfect and aorist, the secons 6. The Greek verb has six moods, which are:indicative, imperative,subjunctive, optative, infinitive,and participle, a third 6. put them together, that is 666. In the end days, one without of the basic knowledge of the Renaissance Greek language cannot sell, that is, to produce, to write, to show to others,neither can buy, that is to acquire, to understand,to....

    At the end, the world will be unified into one cullture, one way, one value, the value that is "Man is measure of everything", for the end time people, no norm, no dogma, no rule, what man likes is the value-----the Antichrist?

    The day of Christ is as close to you as the day of your death . You will die ( loose consciousness and cease to be alive at all ) the very next thing that you will be aware of is the return of Christ , this can happen to you any day , in the blinking of an eye , one second you are here , the next second , which in earthly times might be twenty years from now , you will be awakened to judgement and hopefully everlasting life Daniel Ch 12 V 1-3 .
