    Imagine Jesus Christ filling up the universe! Imagine Him standing everywhere. Imagine if you can this prominence declaring you righteous! Never mind the flesh, it will only pull you back down!

    This one who wishes he could do something about it. The fact that the savior conquered him at the cross will forever stand in his way, blocking him from the declaration that Christ died and removed the guilt. The guilt he uses to drag you back once again only to suffer you ! This, he endures too separate you and me from the truth!

    The majesty of God. The glory revealed to those who love Him!

    Repent and be baptized

    Sister GiGi,

    Amen. You are correct, Peter was human like all of us, and Jesus must have seen alot in Peter, as Jesus built his Church on Apostle Peter, (The Rock) and gives him "the keys to the kindom of Heaven" this scripture says it all!

    Matthew 16:15-19

    15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

    16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

    17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

    18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

    19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

    God Bless.

    1 Corinthians Chapter 2

    12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but THE SPIRIT which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

    13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teaches; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

    14 But the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

    John 3, Jesus said we must be born again, to receive the HOLY SPIRIT,

    living on the inside of us.

    [you must speak these things openly, to receive them, openly]

    Be brave. Mishael
  • THE GOD WHO LOVES YOU - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    I do not mean to wound or be rude, but you are being lied to by "lying spirits".

    The whole planet is in denial that "This End of the World"__Jesus Stuff__God is our Father__the World is going to burn up. etc. 2 Peter 3

    You're afraid the Bible, which has survived 6000 years of opposition, Jesus's Crucifixion and Resurrection___might be Truth.

    See, Isaiah 14 teaches that Lucifer (SATAN) is real. He hates God, Jesus, the Bible, Christians, and he KNOWS his end will be in the Lake of Fire. He wants TO HURT as many people he can who might possibly read a Bible and ask JESUS to come live in their hearts.

    Satan sends out his lying spirits to shake your tiny faith and__take you to hell with him.

    They did that to me. 20+years. I was suicidal. God reached down into the mess of my life and pulled me up; and showed me his Son. It took 2 years to learn how to get all those evil spirits out of my ears. If you choose Jesus and BELIEVE his story in the Bible: all those lying voices will just GO away.

    ASK the Lord to help you. Tell Him what you need. I needed those things to stop telling me death is a fluffy blanket.

    Read 1-2-3 John in the back of the Bible (in front of Revelation). Jesus is Your Advocate. Like a defense attorney. Whatever lies, doubts, confusion, chaos, rail to Jesus about you__Jesus will dismiss those charges for you. You will be free. Just like me. You will become strong inside.

    These scriptures are for you too:

    Song of Solomon chapter 2:9, 6:3, 7:10

    He will never leave you.

    Who/what are the nicolaitans spoken of in revelation?
  • WHATS HAPPENING IN OUR WORLD NOW - 4 years ago
    Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed. Luke 17: 26-30

    And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.

    And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. Matthew 24:4-8,10-14

    What are we to do when each day the news agencies report ever increasing threats of terror, hurricanes, cyclones, earthquakes, tsunamis, droughts, fires, floods, famines, pestilences and wars in our world? Jesus gave us His advice in the verses of Matthew 24

    Matthew 24:8, Mark 13:8

    All these are the beginning of sorrows.

    We're going to see "earth pains" as Jesus compared it to the labor pains of a woman. We will get through this part; just hand on tightly to Jesus. Read the Gospels where he taught the disciples about it. (that's us).

    Sometimes Nelson Walters teaches a little fast; but you might watch some of his "book of Daniel" end time teachings (on youtube).

    We're going to witness nations rising up against other nations, on TV !! (Such as Russia taking over Ukraine) Or, Palestinian Nations attacking Israel. The USA is giving money to Israel's ENEMIES.

    Let's do what Jesus said: PRAY for the Peace of Jerusalem!

    EVANGELIZE lost people. Hang on to your JOY.
  • Dr. Lyle Lee - In Reply on Psalms 110 - 4 years ago
    Hi Chris; I thank God that you have understood the Old Testament being different from the old covenant, as the differences between the two are many. You are very right about Christianity being mislead by Israel, as they have called Genesis to Deuteronomy the Torah and the Pentateuch, this is very wrong indeed for me as a Dr. of theology. One must realize that during the dispensation of the Old Testament only the book of Leviticus is the Torah, definitely not Genesis, as this book has three covenants found within it, Adamic, Noahic, Abramic, covenants. These three covenants have nothing to do with the Old Testament, also let us be clear in what we are saying when we speak of the major or minor prophets, these were written during the Old Testament dispensation, but they do not teach Old Testament laws or commandments on a whole, just as Psalms, proverbs, ecclesiastes, have nothing to do with the Old Testament. For this reason, I teach that the Old Testament as being destroyed on Calvary, but from the books written during that dispensation many prophesies have yet to come to pass, we these are still considered the will of God for today. It is true, I teach the New Testament as being broken into seven categories, one must look for each category in every book from Matthew to Revelation. then you will discover only that the least commandments are about twelve hundred, the doctrines as hundreds, the unconditional promises over fifty, the conditional promises over 200, the many prophecies, as well as faith without works and faith with works. Learning these seven categories helps someone to comprehend the will of God for the New Testament, while the will of God for the new covenant is only two greatest commandments, love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength, meaning spirit, soul and body, and love your neighbor as yourself. Understand I am speaking in part as I have not explained what the least commandments are or the hundreds of doctrines, just overview
  • Alex N - In Reply on 2 Peter 1 - 4 years ago
    Dgjot....You are right on even Jesus himself had to rebuke Peter for telling him he did not need to go to Jerusalem and die for the sins of the world..And our Lord rebuked Peter telling him he did not understand the things of God but the things of man.....Jesus rebuked Peter calling Satan....But we all like Peter need to be rebuked sometimes....just saying. you are just telling it as it is The truth...GBU.... Mat. 16 : 23
  • Alex N - 4 years ago
    Hey Bro. Lyle Lee....Appreciate your posts...GBU.....But I was just thinking our Lord does not distinguish between 2 old Covenants or 2 Testaments...When he said in Luke 16 : 16 The Law and the Prophets were until John since that time. The Kingdom of God is preached and all men press into it....He was impling that they were 1 and the same....As the Law and the Prophets are 1 in his mind were The old Covenant....Plz give me your take on this....ty kindly...Alex

  • T. Levis - In Reply on 1 Kings 12 - 4 years ago
    As I just read your post I was just reminded 1st time I've ever noticed. 1 Kings 11:1-14, Proverbs 4:7, Ecclesiastes 7:12, 1 Kings 4:34, Deuteronomy 7:3-4,

    Did his son lose respect because of what he witnessed his father Solomon doing? Did he think of that generation as hypothetical? Because of action?

    Then I just thought of Now generations. I believe the young generation that says "ok, boomer" to the oldest generation has watched the results of Abortion, that started during the Oldest generation's "WATCH" not correcting the next generation.

    Then the generation X, (did it derive name because they were 1st legal abortion babies?) were & are treated with scorn, disregard, disrespect & often cruelly from those establishments hypothetically calling themselves "church" even robbed their parenting rights, from those same people who were pushing others even own children to abort living heirs?!!

    Now oldest generation telling Millenials & Gen Z's to "work to help pay for their retirements"?/? How can children respect if no one shows them how?

    Please pray about how you can heal, help, encourage, uplift those younger Generations because love, examples & truth in real faith will help.

    With love my brother, in CHRIST

  • T. Levis - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Please read 1611 tab information on this site.

    If you do Web search (king-james-bible-most-popular ) or type that information

    There's an interesting article that explained even it's impact on culture & USA when Colonized.

    I've seen in one article that the printing was reduced to save costs.

    Saur a German American also produced a Bible USA 1743-1776, including half of the Apocrypha [gruber] amazing German & England/Ireland influence include Apocrypha in early English translations. I'm very interested in this too because it's only been a few years that I have even been aware these books were seemingly removed from our Bible translations. This site has many books in the Apocrypha that point to Jesus as Messiah & strengthen faith. Give wisdom Ecclesiasticus

    I trust the HOLY Spirit will give us Wisdom & teach us, James 1:5, John 14:26,

    Hopefully this is helpful
  • Free - In Reply on Psalms 110 - 4 years ago
    Hello all grace children in Jesus Christ. Now it is so that I have wondered about this and it was interesting to read everything, you all have shared. Just a little thought: When I was new on the road with Christ, I thought we should have had more delights in scripture not to get confused!

    One day not so long ago we got a reference to Leviticus 5:17 And if a soul sin, and commit any of these things which are forbidden to be done by the commandments of the LORD; though he knew it not, yet he is guilty, and shall bear his iniquity.

    So it helped little and "try" and follow a law. It was unfair and misleading.

    Now we can rejoice that the world has moved forward! But we still have a responsibility as big as anything. Namely, the Kingdom of the Holy Spirit which gave words from this morning. Acts Chapter 5. Surely no one has overlooked Peter's words in the First Verses?

    We believers have only righteousness and point out, for we can not, shall not lie to the Holy Spirit. Although it is something we understand and not everything has been shed light on yet. We will hopefully learn and understand piece and divided. Stay in The peace of God.

    Blessed be all in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.

I have no knowledge on these subjects...at all.
  • Michael on 1 Kings 12 - 4 years ago
    I see that Rehoboam consults the older advisors first-advisors who would have advised Solomon in his day.

    Rehoboam listens to the younger generation. He forsakes that which is old and traditional and that which has previously brought prosperity to his ancestors.

    My understanding is that the message here is that Rehoboam has strayed from the true course of rectitude.

    It is not just that young people are not important for counsel; it is making plain that Rehoboam has chosen unwisely and listened to the wrong group of advisors.

    Often, but not always, youthful men, caught up in their hormones, can foolishly make judgement that an older male would not do. Impetuosity and brashness are tamed with the thoughtful experience of past mistakes--- when one gets older and has had time to reflect on the foolishness and wisdom learned from a life well considered.

    I know. I've lived it.

    Praise him,

    There was much migration

    After the flood ( Genesis 6-11)

    People migrated southward into the river plains between the Tigris and Euphrates in just a few generations after Noah and family settled in the mountains of Aratat.

    In Nimrod's day (Noah's great grandson) the Tower of Babel was built and God caused them people to speak in different languages and caused them to migrate in all directions.

    They began to populate all continents from that time forward.

    Herdsmen like Abraham were common and often lived somewhat nomadic as they traveled from pastureland to pastureland.

    After Judah was taken to Babylon and Israel to Assyria those not taken stayed in and around Israel. Some migrated out if the area. Many Israelites and Jews stayed in Babylon and Assyria and did not return to the promised land. These them migrated north, south, east to settle in other areas.

    At the time of Paul, Jew were settled all around the Mediterranean coastlands and the interior is Asia Minor.

    After the destruction of Jerusalem by Rome in A.D. 70

    Many Jews migrated out of the promised land.

    There were migrations of tribal

    Peoples to Africa and then continued to migrate south on that continent.

    Peoples also migrate east to

    India and China and the Far East. People migrated out of the Caucasus Mountains to Europe and Russia

    People Migrated to north and South America.

    So Gos saw to it that humans spread out upon the face of the earth, as was His will.

  • Chris - In Reply on Psalms 110 - 4 years ago
    Hello again Dr. Lee. I think I might have understood the difference between the Old Covenant & the Old Testament. You wrote: "One huge difference between the Old Testament and the old covenant is that Moses wrote the Old Testament by hand, while God wrote with his finger the old covenant." The Old (Mosaic) Covenant being the Ten Commandments (which I understand & agree to), & the Old Testament being the Pentateuch (?) If this is the case, have those who divided the testaments to what we have now, erred, by placing the Pentateuch, the Prophets & the Writings under the nomenclature of the Old Testament? If so, then this is misleading.

    Now when we consider the New Testament, you've written that the "New Testament has 7 categories." This to me seems like the New Testament must include all the Books from Matthew to Revelation as those categories you've detailed can be seen in most, if not all, of those books.

    Then to the New Covenant. It "only has two great commandments". Can we not actually place these Covenantal Laws of both the Old & New (i.e. the Ten Commandments & the love God & neighbour commandment) under the actual Covenants made/given that command men to follow after? I tend to look at a Covenant as just that: a verbal declaration/pledge by one party to another. Therefore I see that the Mosaic (Old) Covenant (e.g. Deuteronomy 11:1-32) & the New Covenant (found variously in Jeremiah 31:31-34; Matthew 26:28; Hebrews 9:15; Romans 11:26,27), as the pledge, with the commandments (including the dictates of the Spirit in the believer), being our response to those Covenants. If we, post-Cross, fail to apprehend this & fail to earnestly seek to obey the Spirit, one could rightly question of what sort our salvation is & whether the promise of the Covenant was ever applied to our hearts. Thank you for your time again.

    Hi Mike

    Omnipotent means all-powerful to the utmost.

    This quality belongs to God only. No creature possess perfect power as He does.

    No creature even comes close to the power of God. What creature could create the universe and its inhabits from nothing? No one. Jesus said the with God, all things are possible ( Matthew 19:26)

    Psalm 62:11 says "..that power belongs to God..."

    Hope this helps

    Well I'm not saying that the bible is false or our souls aren't actually true, but people have to actually see this stuff happening, like I know my questions might be stupid, but how are people gonna tell me to believe in God, but I don't even know if the Bible is actually true? , because yes people were NOT alive back then, and people want me just to go by a Bible or a book, but what if you don't know if it's a book, it could be something else because none of us were alive to tell us what the Bible actually is. I do believe in God, but some of the things that people or my family want me to believe doesn't make sense.
