Now under this New Covenant its the H.G. that is the Israel of God...Thats y Jesus is saying that which is born of the Spirit is spirit..Which is the H.G. The Child of Promise...The gift of God is spirit which is the H.G....The Israel of God the seed of Christ...His seed his word etc...Which is Spirit...our new innerman is Spirit

....Jesus cd not refer to the H.G. as the Child of PROMISE if the H.G. were not the Multiplication of Christ Jesus in humanity via his seed the word.

That was the original Promise was when God swore by his very self...That Christ wd be multiplied as the stars of heaven which is the H.G. which are Children of Promise....Spirits as God is Spirit...Thus the Israel of God are spirits that are gonna be born in us...We be the moma that are gonna birth the Children of Promise which is the H.G....Spirits...Jesus asked who is my mother them that hear the word and keeps it...We be just the moma a joint heir...If he knows us...But the Child is Spirit the H.G. the Child of promise...Thus the real Israel of God are spirits...our new innerman.

.....God wants a new Israel that are gonna come from his seed the WORD THE SEEDS OF THE SOWER...Which are spirits.

......Thats y Jesus is saying whosoever receiveth one such Child in my name receivth me...Thats the Child of Promise the H.G. The Israel of God....ok gbu

A question? What is the difference between being God's judgement and being under spiritual attack?

Let us remember to boldly share the good news, brining souls to Christ Jesus.

Through kindness, love and humility our every work should reflect.

Our Savior Jesus Christ guide us perfectly always.

May happiness, patience, compassion and love be the tools by which this most important work is accomplished.

Protect and Bless me always, I pray Father Which Art In Heaven.

Thank you God, your mercy, grace and love sustain me forever and ever Amen.

I think we're on the same page here Spencer.

Paul was a very educated man and so,even as he was led to write what he did from the Holy Ghost sometimes the whole passage needs to be read so as to understand what was written in the first few verses.

The Jews are the chosen people of God and always will be. As part of God's plan, because his people rejected him the Gentiles were given the opportunity to receive him. Those who accepted him were considered part of the wild olive tree but we're grafted into the true olive tree. The Jews as a people are the broken branches that the gentiles replaced but God can graft them back into the tree.

All those who have accepted Christ will be raptured as stated in Matthew 24:29-31.

This is where I can only guess what happens next but think I have it right. After the battle of Armageddon and the events surrounding it, the thousand yr reign of Chris t will take place. This is what Isaiah 11 speaks to, where the wolf lies with the lamb, the child will play In the nest of the asp and the lion eats grass as the ox. The nation has been scattered when the anti-christ besieged the city of Jerusalem but now is regathered to become the chief of nations as Christ will be reigning as their King and they will accept him now. All the nations of the world will look to Israel as the nation with power and glory for Christ will be there as well.

Brother Alex, I quoted a scripture that seems to contradict what you were saying, let me say to those reading this; The Jews and Gentiles that Alex was speaking about are those in the FLESH whether they be Jew or Gentile, the flesh is to be done away with, the TRUE JEW is SPIRIT.

God Bless YOU!

Thanks, Amen and Happy Mothers day to you Gigi!!

God bless you and all you do.

Thanks and Amen Brother Chris.

God bless you.

I believe that we are in agreement. I'm not saying I'm knowledgeable and am right but I believe I can understand what is written and try not to read into passages too much as to read between the lines and come up with anything that is not actually there at all.

Amen Brother Alex:

The doctrines of man are had to overcome, but in God's TIME and PURPOSE: TRUTH will prevail.

Romans 2:28 For HE IS NOT A JEW which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

Romans 2:29 But HE IS A JEW, which is one inwardly, and the circumcision is of the heart, IN THE SPIRIT, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

Jeremiah 49:19 Behold, he (the Holy Ghost) shall come up like a lion from the swelling of Jordan against the habitation of the strong (Satan, the carnal mind): but I (the Holy Ghost) will suddenly make him (the chosen) run away from her ( Revelation 17:5): and who is a CHOSEN MAN, that I (the Holy Ghost) may APPOINT OVER HER ( Revelation 17:5)? For WHO IS LIKE ME (born of spirit, image of the Holy Ghost)? and who will appoint me the time? and who is that shepherd that will stand before me?

God Bless YOU!

Reply to Adam.

I do not generally judge a person's true spiritual condition, especially early in their profession. I did not have assurance I was really saved for several years after I got saved. I encourage new believers to follow on to grow in Christ and to give diligence to make their calling and election sure by continually taking heed to God's word.

Thomas said "How can we know the way?" Phillip said "show us the Father?"

Are these not the same questions that hinder the heart and soul of man?

How to see, how to know the way?

Though they seem impossible, it is possible if we hear His words!

"I Am the way the truth and the Life!"

"If you have seen me ,you have seen the Father"

Repent and be Baptized

Hi David,

May all the circumstances in your life that are weighing on your heart be cast into the hands of God; in all of these things, may you, Kristi, and all of your families grow in faith more deeply; may you also all grow in patient endurance more deeply; may the joy of the Lord give each of you mighty strength. May God's wisdom flood your hearts and minds, chasing away doubts and fears, cares and worries. May your eyes behold the King (by faith) in all of His glory! May He be magnified in such a way so as to make all of those things that concern you seem very, very small. May God get much thanks and glory as He works in and through your lives. Amen!

Peace and grace to you and yours, David,

Thank you for this, Alex. It breaks my heart when I see 'Christians' telling Israel that they are 'different' and can keep the old covenant and be right with God It breaks my heart when I see 'evangelicals' contributing to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem, setting up what Christ so obviously destroyed. I have read Josephus's account of the destruction of Jerusalem; the signs preceding the destruction, the horror of the siege and destruction, and some things that happened following the destruction are horrific! It made my hair stand up on end to read the account! Someone tried to rebuild the temple after it was destroyed, and fireballs came up out of the ground to frighten the 're-builders' away!!!

Jesus is our Once-For-All Lamb; there never can be another sacrifice that will take away sin! How audacious to rebuild and approve of what Christ so vehemently cast down!

Ohhh that there would be true evangelists that would tell the Jews that they CANNOT be saved any other way, but by the Way, the Truth, the Life, Jesus Christ their Messiah ... and ours!!

God bless you too, Alex.

No this was not Mary Magdalene who had 7 evil spirits; this was a woman caught in the act of adultery but what many read over here, was a group of men brought this woman to be judged. If she was caught in the act of adultery then where was the man? So Jesus went on to write on the ground about the men who brought her, 1 by 1 writing: where were you John the night of such and such? and he took off; on down the line he addressed the accusers about where they were until none of her accusers were left. Did each have a turn committing adultery with her and they finally got jealous because they found out she was with them all so they decided to have her judged? Moral of the story don't be willingly to accuse someone of something you yourself done.

Luk 6:42 Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.

Guys plz when ya speak of Replacement Theology...Remember Jesus took our PLACE at the Cross...Jew or Gentile ..He paid the price for everyman Jew or Gentile...As Gal. 3 : 28 there is no Jew or Gentile in Christ Jesus...We are all one in Christ Jesus...And if ANY man be in Christ Jesus he is a New Creature, Jew or Gentile, Old things have passed away and behold all things are become new.

......1 st Cor. 12 : 13 By 1 Spirit are we ALL baptised into the body of Christ whether we be JEW or Gentile...Bond or Free...We all have to drink of that same spritual drink which is Christ Jesus...There is no more Jew or Gentile in Christ Jesus Gal 3 : 28....Do you not realize that the 12 disciples were all Jews but they had to be bornagain...Thus they became a new creature in Christ Jesus.

.....Now New Jerusalem is the city of God as you are come unto MT. SION the city of the living God...That Heavenly Jerusalem Hebrews..12 : 22 kjv...And to a hugh host of angels....When God pours out his spirit on all flesh it will include the Jews that are stuck in the law...And Old Jerusalem...And all the World...A lil one shall become a 1000 and a small one a strong nation I the lord will hasten it in its TIME...Which is the ISRAEL OF GOD....And this is gonna make natural Israel very happy....They are gona be free from the law...They are gona be bornagain of an incorruptible seed...Which is that New Covenant...They are gonna birth a baby Christ which is the H.G that Child of Promise...Just like the woman in Rev 12...And thats when the Kingdom Comes Rev 12 : 10 kjv...Gbu

After the Millennium and White Throne judgement there will be no gender.

Mar 12:25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven.

In regards to James Davis' query on the city of our Father in OT. The only description provided can be found in Ezekial and mainly deals with the new Temple that will be there. The actual description of the city (New Jerusalem) can be found in Revelation.

In here is correct translation and it only means: in right hand= right hand is most people's dominant hand and it is an analogy throughout scripture meaning= work. Those who receive the mark in their right hand work for the beast. In the forehead another analogy meaning you have to worship the beast, it's in your forehead; your brain is in your forehead and it is sealed in your brain to do whatever you are told, right or wrong.

We see many today that have made politics their idol where they either work for or worship everything they are told by the party. We see today that they don't care if it is wrong or immoral; they are still going to fallow party line even though they know it's wrong and even illegal. This is what it means to have mark in your hand or in your forehead. We see example of this going on in the Democrat party today where they tried to make it mandatory that you did everything they tell you, right or wrong even with all the illegal, immoral abuses. We are in 1st beast of 1 world system today where the left have taking over and why there is so much confusion and tumult around the world. You can be tattooed from head to toe with 666 but if you don't worship or work for the beast it want mean a thing. Many worry it will be a chip or something implanted in their hand or forehead but if you don't bow down and worship the anti-Christ you will not be taking the mark.

Mark of the 2nd beast will be when anti-Christ takes over the 1 world system of the fleshly kings where if you don't either worship or work for you will not be able to buy, sell or trade with the 1 world beast system.

If you have CHRIST over you, you want have anything to worry about and GOD will take care of HIS own.

GOD warns Satan to not touch HIS anointed or instant destruction.

1Ch 16:22 Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.

Hi Jannie , for me , the whole book of Joel is about the last days , just before the return of Christ , particularly what is going to happen to the land of Israel . Usually , throughout the Old Testament , when God brings an army against Israel , He says exactly who He is going to bring against them , this helps to validate the prophet that He had chose to give the warning and also confirms that it is God Himself that is executing the judgement . In Joel He doesn't tell us who it is , Ch 2 V 20 , it's just " the northern army " . I believe that this is very significant and indicates that the prophecy is for an event so far in the future that the northern army is not one that the people in the time of Joel would recognise and so they don't need to know who it is in their lifetime . This is just my opinion , many prophecies have an immediate application and then a future one , for me though , this is all about the last days , the invasion of Israel by its enemies and the return of Christ to defend Israel and rebuke the invaders . I'm sure others will give you different answers . May God bless your efforts to understand His Word .

I've heard people say they witnessed loved ones say they were seeing other people in the room that had passed away beforehand as that loved one was dying.

I witnessed something like that. Days before a loved one passed he said hello to a neighbor that came into the room & her husband that had died years earlier.

They may be asking because of deathbed visions or something supernatural. If Moses can visit Jesus before death, even though it records Moses died. Deuteronomy 34, Then a visit fits within scripture: Matthew 17,

Thank you for the reply, Marke. I couldn't help notice you dodged the second question.

Your response suggests that you can determine a Christian by fruit, but a new Christian has no fruit track record yet.

So, if someone hears the gospel for the first time tomorrow and decides to be a Christian, at that time is he a 'real Christian' to you?

15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Reply to Adam.

Allow me to use the parable of the sower in Matt 13 to answer your question. The three types of hearers who did not get saved never showed signs of a new life in Christ like the good hearer did. The fake Christians did not bring forth good fruit to perfection and the fake Christians did not come unto a good understanding of God's word like the good hearer did.

19 When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

20 But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;

21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

22 He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

23 But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

Hi Marke,

I noticed you distinguish between real and fake Christians. What is your definition of a real Christian?

If non-believer attends church tomorrow and responds to an altar call professesing faith in Jesus do you consider that person a real Christian or is there a particular test that determines which they are?

God bless.

Reply to Christopher Likens.

The Bible likens us to "stones" in heaven, according to 1 Peter 2:

5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

However, more seriously in direct answer to your question, I think all believers in heaven may be considered brothers and sisters without the former family distinctions they experienced on earth.

I have a Christian friend who is married to a Christian woman but my friend sometimes appears to me to be overly dominant in their marriage. I once told him that I thought he may be given rule over 5 cities in heaven for his faithfulness and his wife may be given rule over 10 cities for her faithfulness, with five of those cities being ruled over by him. He adamantly insisted that was never going to happen. I thought that was funny.

Reply to Fred Smallwood.

I suspect we will find out soon whether the mark will be applied "in" or "on" the forehead as the time of the end is at hand.

Reply to Jannie Talley.

The Lord Jesus Himself speaks here in Joel 2:

12 Therefore also now, saith the Lord, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning:

13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.

Reply to Doug.

Cod chose Christians in Christ before they were born but His selection was based upon His foreknowledge, not according to some plan He had that did not involve the response of the sinner to the preaching of the Gospel. We have been chosen in Christ since the beginning if we are saved. If it were possible for Christians to lose their salvation it nevertheless remains impossible for God to have chosen them in Christ from the beginning.

Thank you brother S. Spencer. That is the general understanding of Replacement Teaching, even as GiGi has stated. One might force Scriptures into twists & turns to prove that Israel is no more in the Mind of God & rejected of Him for their unbelief & condemnation of Jesus, but how are they going to convince the Apostle Paul in what he vehemently declared in Romans chapter 11? In fact in verse 1 alone, I can hear the echo of today's Replacement teachers: "I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid...". Paul said, No, Israel has not been utterly cast off. Some others then & today say, Yes they were totally rejected (for such this chapter was written). Who should we believe? God's Word is Truth.
