  • Pamela - In Reply on Isaiah 11 - 4 years ago
    This is what I understand to be true after doing a little reading in my study bible.

    The Davidic kingdom to be restored by Christ : it's character and extent

    Isaiah 11 This chapter is a prophetic picture of the glory of the future kingdom, which will be set up when David's son returns in glory.

    Luke 1: 31-32; Acts 15:15-16

    Isaiah 11:9 -10 They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain,

    For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD

    As waters cover the sea.

    "And in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse,

    Who shall stand as a banner to the people;

    For the Gentiles shall seek Him,

    And His resting place shall be glorious."

    How Crist will set up the kingdom

    Isaiah 11:11-12

    It shall come to pass in that day

    That the LORD shall set His hand again the second time

    To recover the remnant of

    His people who are left,

    From Assyria and Egypt,

    From Pathros and Cush,

    From Elam and Shinar,

    From Hamath and the islands of the sea. He will set up a banner for the nations,

    And will assemble the outcasts of Israel,

    And gather together the dispersed of Judah

    From the four corners of the earth.

    Habakkuk 2:14

    For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD As waters cover the sea.

    Zechariah 12:8 "In that day the LORD will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; the one who is feeble among them in that day shall be like David, and the house of David shall be like God, like the Angel of the LORD before them."

    The moral characteristics of the kingdom are to be righteousness and peace. The meek, not the proud , will inherit the earth; longevity will be greatly increased; the knowledge of the LORD will be universal;

    beast-ferocity will be removed;

    absolute equity will be enforced; and open sin will be visited with instant judgement; whereas the enormous majority of earth's inhabitants will be saved Psalms 2:9; Isaiah 11:4,6-9; 26:9; 65:20; Zacharia 14:16-21

    The NT Revelation 20:1-5 adds a detail of immence significance

    Thanks, Chris,

    Those are both of the Scripture references that came to my mind when considering Edna's question. You put it well in your posting.

    Time will show us what or who this is as God's culmination of history unfolds. We are to be ready for Him to return at anytime, and be about the business of His kingdom until then. So, for me, I live day by day with Him and let Him be the revealer of all these things in their due time. I focus on whom He has brought into my life to share the words of life with and to help in their time of need. I aim to live a quiet and godly life in these wicked times. Our witness to others is so vital in redeeming the time God gives us to do His will here. So, for me, it is important to be a doer of the word and not just a hearer. James 1:22.
  • GiGi - In Reply on Psalms 56 - 4 years ago
    Yes, Manuel,

    Jesus is the Perfect One to accomplish all that was needed for our salvation. Perfect humanity to fulfill the Law, to shed His blood for our atonement, to die in our place; perfect divinity to bear all of our sins and absorb all of the wrath of God for our sinfulness, to defeat the devil and death, to raise himself up on the third day, and to receive back the glory He had before the incarnation in union with the Father and the Holy Spirit. I don't think we can every fully comprehend the amazing mystery of the incarnation of God in Jesus. But we can know that being human, He connects with us. And being God He connects us to the Godhead. So, we are very loved and privileged to have been drawn to Him by the Father, united to Him by the Spirit, and thoroughly redeemed to God by Him.

    Where in the Bible does it say that women should not become ministers?
  • GiGi - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Yes, Claudette,

    He is wonderful! If we have this limited knowledge and view of the wonders of astronomical features, just think hhow much more there is for us to be amaze about when we enter glory!
  • GiGi - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Good day, Jude,

    If you go back to verse 3:3, this text section is describes God manifesting Himself for people to observe. I think that the "horns" are rays of radiance, as the word horns is translated "rays" in the NIV version.
  • Jesus to Peter - 4 years ago
    In Mathew 16 is a great record of jesus Christ talking to Peter or Cephas in regards to who he was and

    what he was going to build. Starting verse 13 who do men say that I am, then in verse 16 Peter as always was his up

    and down bold nature said thou art the Christ the son of the living God. Then Jesus said blessed art thou because

    flesh and blood has not shown you this, the same with us. Then verse 18 Thou art Peter which means a stone

    or pebble but talking about Himself upon this rock [petra large immovable rock or boulder]I will build my church

    ekklesia[that which is called out] and the gates of hell won't prevail against it. Showing that He was going to be

    head of the body of believers and the Chief cornerstone.
  • God knows Everything - In Reply on Luke 1 - 4 years ago
    Omniscience is one of God's immutable attributes, which is to say, all knowledge of all things is an inherent part of His character and being. Nothing is outside of God's sphere of knowledge. The word "omniscient" is defined as having infinite awareness, understanding and insight; it is universal and complete knowledge.

    God's omniscience means that He can never learn anything new. Nothing can surprise Him or take Him unaware. He is never blind-sided! You will never hear God say, "I didn't see that coming!" or "Who would have thought?" A firm belief in God's omniscience gives the Christ-follower extraordinary peace, security, and comfort in every area of life.

    Amos 8:12

    And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.

    Job 2:2

    And the LORD said unto Satan, From whence comest thou? And Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

    2 Chronicles 16:9

    For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.

    God has knowledge of everything occurring at any given time. We ask, well why did He allow this and that to happen?!

    He gifted us free will, to make decisions that glorify Him and not us. Glorify Jesus. Welcome the Holy Spirit to help us become more like Jesus.

    We have technology to tell us daily what is happening all over the earth: weather, wars, economy, disasters, Everything.

    As His children we ought to ask the Lord our questions and then leave it with Him. By reading the Bible, cover to cover, almost all of our questions will be answered. If you ask Him a question, be prepared to sit in silence before Him and, WAIT UPON THE LORD. Open up dialog with Him. Be willing to accept the no's with the yes's.
  • Whats Written the Book of Remembrance - In Reply on Malachi 3 - 4 years ago
    You, "Google Malachi 3:16 Commentaries"

    I like the "Bible study tools" link

    God has a book of Remembrance in which it is recorded what believers talk about. Our conversations which each other will please, or be a displeasure.

    It reminds ME to take control of what comes out of my mouth. Faith or Faithlessness; condemnation or prayer that situations will improve, if I be patient and wait on God, etc.

    If I speak negative, I hear it with spiritual ears; and I counter that with truth and words of faith.

    Angels are writing in the Book. Wouldn't it be great to read a book someone wrote about us_ saying and doing things that bless and do not curse?

    Sometimes I am my worst critic.

    Hiya Dan GBU.....Yes Peter was a great man of God ,But God is no respector of persons...Its the H.G. that is the Man of Promise...The Israel of God . The gift of God....We are all the same we must All be bornagain of an incorruptible seed as Peter tells us...

    Our old man is in rank with satan which is our old adamic nature....1 st Peter 1 : 23 Being born again of an incorruptible seed which are the words of the new covenant, A much a greater covenant then John's water baptism...Jesus refers to Peter 1 time as Satan before he was converted....The man of the hour is the H.G. Our King, and kingdom thats is born

    within us...He is the result of the CROSS the Blood of the lamb. But he has to be born in us via us hearing the words of our lord .Today if you will hear his voice etc...His words are the good seeds. It was when he breath on them they received the H.G...As his breath was his words which are his seeds producing a birth of Christ in us that Child of Promise Which is the multiplication of Christ in humanity the H.G....As the H.G. was not yet given freely till after the CROSS....Meaning after he was glorified the 1s time after Pentacost the H.G was born in their hearts that Child of Promise, But the seed were sown in the upper room when he said b/c i have spoken these WORDS ( HIS BREATH ) SORROWS HAVE FILLED YOUR HEARTS a spritual Pregnancy....But the Child didn't come till Pentacost some 50 days later....i.e there has to be gestation in the spritual realm for the H.G. to be born in us....I think that is y he is saying

    That which is born of the spirit is spirit which is our new innerman the H.G...His breath was his word which is Spirit

    Thats y he has to know us...Thats when that good seed is sown in us sinners...That was the result of the CROSS

    SMITE THE Sheppard and the sheep will be scattered then i will turn my hand to the lil ONES....His Children that are gonna be born in us...The babes and the sucklings are his offspring.....Isaiah said he wd see his seed.

  • Bro dan - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Bro Alex,

    Thanks for your reply. What a wonderful sunny day here!

    I'm going to continue to love you with this scripture! We may not agree on our interpretation of scripture, but it's ok, many of us here on this site continue to have our differences of opinion. Only God can be our judge! I have to respect you for the Fire you have in stating and sharing your interpretation of scripture.

    Since you commented on Peter I will share this scripture with you for your consideration.

    Regarding the Apostle Peter, Jesus held him in high esteem so much so that he used Peter to build his church!

    Matthew 16:18-20

    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. 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.

    Peter is God's Man! We need to listen when Peter talks:

    Acts 2:38

    "Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."

    Peter tells us what we must do - to receive the Holy Ghost/Spirit. Very Powerful! Do you believe that the Apostle Peter is God's Man?

    Alex, feel free to comment on this scripture, or list any other scripture that you want to discuss, or some other scripture that validates your beliefs.

    God Bless.

    The abomination of desolation is referred to a temple, which after the death and resurrection of Yahusha the temple is our bodies which hold our spirits. We are to worship YHUH in SPIRIT and TRUTH is the New Covenant with the importation of the Holy Spirit. If we look at animals and sacrifices of the Old Testament to the New Testament we no longer worship in temples nor altars of sacrifice, we worship through praise, prayers and obedience. Many will be deceived in that last days because they are looking for physical versus spiritual. Israel are a people and temples are our bodies, Pharmakeia (mind altering) is sorcery which shall deceive the whole world. All the genetically modified foods, Waters, plants, etc. Are now beginning to show up in man, including genetically modified bodies, and the implications of animal and embryo substances into human bodies, the temple of YHUH. This is the abomination of desolation because man in the attempt to save his life, shall lose his spirit by his attempt to genetically modify his body with animal and embryo sacrifices.
  • Rick Mentzer - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Catherine Your not weird or odd I have been manifesting Power from on High many years and the interesting thing

    about that is believers in Antioch of syria after being born again would walk around telling people they had

    Christ in them I.E. Christian Acts 11:26. Remember the words of our brother Jesus Christ Mark 16:17+18 it doesn't say

    this over time was going to change it says those who believe also verse 18 in context means if you not knowingly

    get bit or drink some thing not good, God will not cover something intentionally done stupid knowingly.
  • Alex N - 4 years ago
    hi Dan GBU my man.....But Dan i don't think you understand the Cross was a new covenant in his blood. John knew this thats y he said behold the lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world....But water baptism was a not a blood covenant....Thats y the lord was so upset with Peter commanding water baptism as if his blood did not suffice for sin...When Jesus said it was finished it was finished forever, God Almighty was offering up his only son the greatest event to ever grace this planet....The blood of God, And here comes Peter commanding water baptism for the sins of the world, A slap in the face of God and the lamb of God, Peter wanted to help God with this new blood covenant thinking that water baptism cd help with this Atonement sacrifice the cross'.A kin to Uzzah wanting to help God when the oxen stumbled but God was very angry and slew Uzzah on the spot .God was very angry with Peter telling him 3 times what i have made clean do not call common or unclean....All the unclean animals in that sheet was the CHURCH that was made clean by the Blood OF THE LAMB, Gods new blood covenant, Not water baptism and absolutely nothin can be added to it PERIOD.....UNLESS WE DEFILE IT....We cannot help God simply b/c he needs no help, It was a slap in the face of God to add anything to Calvary. I know that some were still water baptising but it was simply b/c the Church was still young . But in time it was just like Bro Paul saying water baptism wd make the cross his blood on no effect....Paul feared to defile the blood making it of no effect....I thank God that i baptised none of you....Remember Uzzah

    Hi Sister Catherine,

    Thanks for sharing the wonderful scripture, directed at baptism. I agree with all! Amen.

    Yes, Jesus is the only way to the Father. It's nice to hear of a church like yours that actually follows this bible scripture.

    Does your church observe God's Ten Commandments?

    John 14:15

    "If ye love me, keep my commandments."

    God Bless.

    Pamala may i give ya my take on all the wild beasts in Isaiah 11 : 6.....My take is all these wild animals are just symbolic

    of Humanity and their Wild Personalities, But the lil Child that leads them is their new innerman That Child of PROMISE

    The H.G....That spirit of truth that Jesus said was gonna lead everybody....I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh....This Child

    is Emanuel the H.G. God with them and leading them to his holy mountain As Isaiah 11 : 9 is saying... Hebrews 12 : 8

    you are come unto mt Zion, the city of the living God That heavenly Jerusalem.Which is the Kingdom of God....Unless

    ya receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child which is the lil Child that is leading them that Child that results from his Seed

    Isaiah 11 : 11 The lord will set his hand again a 2 nd time to recover his ppl etc...This woman in Rev. 12 : 5 is humanity

    that is being led by the Child she has given birth to that Child of Promise the H.G. And verse 10 says now is come Salvation and the Kingdom of our God etc....Plz note the Kingdom does not come till the Woman gives birth to manchild

    Which is the H.G. the Child of Promise .Which is the multiplication of Christ via his seed sown in humanity...Jesus knew this woman, Her pregnancy is the result of his seed the WORDS OF THE NEW COVENANT,...The seeds of the Sower. The contents of the book he wrote with his own blood.

    Whosoever receiveth one such Child in my name receiveth me,..Which is the H.G. the Child of Promise...Remember

    Jesus said the H.G will come in my Name..impling his seed the Living WORD...Planted in our hearts..initiating a birth.

    which is multiplication of his seed etc

  • Catherine Gordon - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Dear Rick Mentzer.. thank you for your reply...

    We believe that going to church is more than simply a social club or a means of filling up a Sunday. At our Church we emphasize a personal, life-giving experience with God. We teach the biblical message of salvation which is summed up in Acts 2:38 and supported throughout the scriptures. The same Spirit that believers experienced in the book of Acts is being poured out upon the church today. The Jesus Name Church is not dead, dry and boring, but rather it is alive and exciting

    Acts 2-38 I'm sure you have read this scripture, for it is very well known

    "Then Peter said unto them,Repent and be Baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and ye shall receive the gift of the "Holy Ghost"

    John 3-5 "Jesus answered,verily verily I say unto thee, Except a man be born of the water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven"

    1st Timothy 2-5"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men,the Man Christ Jesus;"

    Galatians 3-20..Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God as one

    I am Apostolic, I believe in one Lord, one Faith, one Baptism, One God and Father of all,who is above all and through all. I believe in Baptism by immersion in water in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. I believe in the Baptism of the Holy Ghost.With the evidence of speaking in tongues as the Spirit gives us the utterance. I believe Marriage is a holy union between one man and one woman and founded and defined by God alone.

    There are many Churches that have the same belief as ours.."In Jesus Name Church" Apostolic Pentecostal..alot of people say we are "Holy Rollers" We Love God with our whole heart- John 15-18 "If the world hate you, Ye know that it hated me before it hated you"

    John 15-19,If ye are of the world, the world would love its own: but becouse you are not of the world but I have chosen you out of the world, therefor the world hateth you.

    What is the meaning of Habakkuk chapter 3, verse 4 of the King James Version:

    "And his brightness was as the light; he had horns coming out of his hand: and there was the hiding of his power."

    If anyone can provide their beliefs as to the meaning I would so appreciate your thoughts.
  • Hilde mor - In Reply on Isaiah 11 - 4 years ago
    The Holy Spirit which you cannot remove, reveal to Gods people Jesus is the Lamb that was slain for our sins on the cross, like a lamb He (Jesus ) didn't open His mouth.

    Jesus is coming back soon this time as the triumphant King, the Lion

    Jesus is also the Lion!

    The Holy Word is prophetic and revealed to those who has His Spirit by giving Jesus the throne in your heart.

    In the 1000 years reign as King, the lamb ( Jesus) and the Lion (Jesus) is together in Jesus the same.

    The Wolf is the enemy, antichrist, who will deceive people to recognize him as the King of the World, not so.

    Revelation 22:19

    [19]And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book........
