    Genesis 27:41

    And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said IN HIS HEART, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; THEN will I SLAY my brother Jacob.

    Romans 9:13

    As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

    Malachi 1:3

    And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.

    Obadiah 1:18

    And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it.

    KJV Commentary: Esau means

    Hairy, Rebekah's first-born twin son ( Gen. 25:25). The name of Edom, "red", was also given to him from his conduct in connection with the red lentil pottage for which he sold his birthright (30, 31). The circumstances connected with his birth foreshadowed the enmity which afterwards subsisted between the twin brothers and the nations they founded (25:22, 23, 26). In the process of time Jacob following his natural bent, became a shepherd; while Esau, a son of the desert, devoted himself to the perilous and toilsome life of a huntsman. On a certain occasion, on returning from the chase, urged by the cravings of hunger, Esau SOLD his birthright to his brother, Jacob, who thereby obtained the covenant blessing ( Gen. 27:28, 29, 36; Heb. 12:16, 17). He afterwards tried to regain what he had so recklessly parted with, but was defeated in his attempts through the stealth of his brother ( Gen. 27:4, 34, 38). At the age of forty years, to the great grief of his parents, he "married ( Gen. 26:34, 35) two Canaanite maidens,

    Esau tried to conciliate his parents ( Gen. 28:8, 9) by marrying his cousin Mahalath, the daughter of Ishmael. This led him to cast in his lot with the "Ishmaelite tribes (present day Palestinians) and driving the Horites out of Mount Seir, he settled in that region.

    Mr Chris if God is the head of Jesus how is God and Jesus the same person ? Also how do you say we are not under the old law but then makes new laws for women ?
  • Alex N - 4 years ago
    When Jesus speaks of Children he is not speaking of Flesh and blood Children . Romans 9 : 8 Not all Israel is Israel that is the Children of flesh and blood are NOT the Children of God, Its the Children of Promise that are counted for the good seed which is the H.G. the Child of Promise a Spritual Child that is the result of his Word his Seed thus our new innerman, our new heart and new spirit ,The babes and sucklings he mentions are his Children, SPIRITS that are gona be born in US via his seed the word An ISRAEL OF God. Thats y he is saying that which is born of the spirit is spirit thats the H.G. the Child of PROMISE . Multiplication ,That was the great Promise that Christ wd be multiplied as the stars of heaven thus the sower and his precious seed sown in mans hearts, Thus Jesus is trulY a Father mankinds fruit unto God. Little Children are precious but they will have to be washed in the blood of the lamb. no exceptions. Unless ya receive the Kingdom of God as a lil CHILD ( the child of PROMISE the H.G. not a flesh and blood child ) you will in no wise enter there in. The World is gona birth a baby Christ after the book is opened . That Child of Promise . No Fruit no Kingdom. But thats y he has to know US.

    Is the promise of the Comforter , the Holy Spirit of God , given only to men ? Are sisters to be comfortless ? Do women receive the Holy Spirit in the same way men do ? Brothers , research the answer to this question in order to satisfy your own consciences . If women do receive the Holy Spirit in the same way that men do , then you have just insulted and driven away a person , who happens to be a woman , from this site . I'm sure you and your pridefull and fearfull egos are very happy about that . You can rest assured that English Sacha will not be back . Your egos are comforted by that I'm sure . All except the golden heart of Mishael should be ashamed . How do I know all this ? Sacha is my wife and she hadn't even begun to share her knowledge and understanding with you . You will never know what you have missed . Goodbye Brethren .

    Dear friend in Jesus. i know and understand this. Thank for the good word here. And u r right. I have nothing more too say for now. :D

    I can see that some question here are comming back on and on. That's becouse it is a Big confusion, for they who live in the world, and who is not in a christian community. They just use the scriptures too hold a hand over a woman. That's wrong!

    We can se that in taliban and other places too.

    Be blessed in the Name of Jesus Christ.
  • Chris - In Reply on 1 Corinthians 1 - 4 years ago
    Free. We should never lose sight of the order of creation, which is the essence of this subject: 1 Corinthians 11:3,8,9, "But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man." This order of creation is made manifest in the order of the Church, because that is the Plan & Operation of God for an orderly & correct coming together of His people.

    These verses never demean women as being unequal to men in God's Sight. Women always have had a wonderful & compelling position in serving their family & humanity and yes, I perceive many of our dear sisters would probably do a better job of ministering the Word than some brothers. But to twist this heavenly order in any other way only demonstrates a rejection of Scriptural direction within the Body.

  • Michelle key - In Reply on Psalms 27 - 4 years ago
    I just wanted to say I am so sorry for your loss. We went through the same thing last year but not due to Covid. My daughter passed away at the age of 31. Leaving behind three children. My husband and I have taken and two daughters prior to her passing away we had them two years prior. I would like to ask everybody who is willing to pray for them to please do so. Fairy very hard life prior to coming with us. I've been with us almost 3 full years now. And we go through challenges every day girls with the girls. Only do they need your prayers I also need your prayers. I raise three daughters and I have never been face what I'm being faced with now. There are days that I just want to give up. I have become so much closer with God in the last year. I know how this mother feels do you still want to God and ask him why couldn't she be saved, so myself and her children didn't have to go through this. But I won't question him because I know everything happens for a reason. And God has a plan for everyone of us. I'm just feeling so weak from a hard time with the kids give me in the week if they treat me from the heart and the kids keep me in the way that they treat me. So my brothers and sisters in Christ please pray for me! Thank you all so very much, I pray you for Gods will for each of you.

    You may be thinking of Zechariah 8:23 - similar but not the exact wording you gave (maybe from another translation).
  • Chris - In Reply - 4 years ago
    That was a great testimony to read, brother Arnold. Even in your relatively new walk with the Lord, you show an extremely mature understanding & performance of your relationship to the living Christ. I feel that the Lord will indeed bless & use you further as you walk in step with His Spirit, desiring to give Him all the Glory & as you remain behind the Cross in your witness. The Lord bless you richly, as I also remember others here who seek every opportunity to make Christ known through their words & life.
  • Chris - In Reply on Genesis 9 - 4 years ago
    Hi David. Just to clarify Genesis 9:22, "And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without."

    The word "without" here, is an older English word usage, meaning 'outside'. It is supposed to be the opposite of 'within'. We use 'within' often, but not so with, 'without'. Therefore, when Ham saw (or, observed) his father's condition, he went & told his two brothers who were 'outside' the tent. So when the brothers, knowing their father's state, approached the tent opening, they put a (large) material across their shoulders & walked backwards into the tent to cover their father & in so doing gave him due respect.
  • Chris - In Reply on Psalms 92 - 4 years ago
    Yes Helen, "It is a" & "thing" are all italicized because those four words don't appear in Hebrew, from which the translation was made. If you read it in Hebrew, it would read, "The Sabbath good to give thanks Yahweh and to sing praises to Your name Most High". So, the translators needed to add those extra words, to give it sense in English.
  • Matthew 2 Herods Efforts to kill Jesus - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Matthew 2:8

    Herod wanted to murder Jesus

    [The three wise men]

    12 And being Warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.

    13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to murder him.
  • Helen on Psalms 92 - 4 years ago
    In Psalm 92:1 it looks like "a" is italicized in "It is a good thing"

    Is that correct?

    thanks
  • Mishael - In Reply on Matthew 24 - 4 years ago
    Wesley's Notes for Acts 9:5

    To kick against the goads - is a Syriac proverb, expressing an attempt that brings nothing but pain.

    People's Bible Notes for Acts 9:5

    Acts 9:5 Who art thou, Lord? Sure that it was a supernatural communication, though he might possibly suspect its source, he did not yet know that it came from Christ. Perhaps at times he had had misgivings that he might be wrong, but he was sincere. I am Jesus. It is not said, "the Christ", but JESUS, the crucified one against whom Saul was raging. Had the answer been "the Christ", or the Son of God, Saul might still have doubted whether this was Jesus. [It is] hard for thee to kick against the pricks. Omitted here by the Revised Version, but found in Acts 26:14. The idea is that he is injuring himself, like the ox that kicks back on the goads used to urge him forward.

    Acts 9:5

    And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks (goads).

    Acts 22:8

    And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.

    Acts 26:15

    And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.

    Mishael: another thing is this= Jesus always says Follow Me. He says today is the day of salvation. He's here today!

    No one else is coming. If you hear his call today, follow Him.

    There is a Link on the red page, Become A Christian. It's a lot to read, but I think it will answer your question. Come back, if it doesn't, ok?
  • Mishael - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Genesis 24 is a LOVE STORY. Abraham's Servant is a view of the Holy Spirits work. Read the story and capture the details between Abraham and the Servant; and the Bride to be and the Servant. Isaac had to practice patience.

    You have to pray much for the servant and the bride. Trust me, internet connections rarely connect.

    Instead he had to put all his faith and trust in the servant. He was rewarded with a wonderful wife whom he loved all of his days. See verse 67 :D

    This tells me that our relationship with the Holy Spirit should be close. He knows where your future wife is. Prayer and communication with Holy Spirit is important. You want to be equally yoked. I especially like verse 65. She sees Isaac the first time__as in Wowie!!

    You're not being a traitor to your church if you visit singles groups in other similar churches.

    Think on these things
  • Adam - In Reply on Genesis 9 - 4 years ago
    No words are missing in the KJV Bible. The meaning has been the same for more than 400 years since its first printing, which can easily be verified on a website like this. People sometimes make false assumptions about it though. I trust God's word over man's word any day.

    In the middle of your statement, you said "no other time in the bible that can account for the black race." I'm not sure where you get your information from. While the Bible doesn't explain all answers to all questions we have, it does say a lot. Maybe your question is where do races come from. Two common theories exist- some believe Noah's family was diverse and spread out into different people groups from there. And others, including myself, believe God's work at the Tower of Babel included changes to culture and race, along with the already disclosed language creation and regional placement across the earth. God bless.

  • Mark Patterson - 4 years ago
    Ecclesiasticus 44:16

    "Enoch pleased the Lord, and was translated, being an example of repentance to all generations."

    I like that Enoch is considered an example of repentance to all generations. If he was a great example of repentance, he began having sins to repent of and through his repentance was transformed to become a righteous man who walked with God. This should give us all hope that we too may fully repent of our sins and be transformed to become like Christ and walk with God.
  • Richard GARDNER - In Reply on Matthew 24 - 4 years ago
    I think it means to all that belief in is will, with crist as ther, Savoy you know your going to de saved. So the ones that do not open their eye, and the ones that see but turn their backs to him will be, left out of God's glories
  • Arnold Benavides Jr - 4 years ago
    Family,

    Good evening. Hope all is well in your lives. I'd like to share with everyone how my day went. I was contemplating going to a friends son birthday party because it was a Holloween theme and well I hate that holiday. I just was very apprehensive and just kept thinking and thinking. It's not until a few hours later where I went to Jeremiah 17 where it says "Blessed is he who trusteth in the Lord and who's hope is. So, I was anxious even going but when I got there I had my eyes, mind, heart set on Jesus. I had a smile on my face of joy because I know he was with me. I don't like those type of environments but I love my savior and although I am not a long time Christian and need more guidance I know he lives in me. There's no other way I would've been able to be there if it wasn't for the peace of God that he gives through his son. I wanted to share that with y'all. I let some people know what happened to me and how God has blessed me. A kid that was jumping fell and I prayed for him. God is so good. This is not to boast or I don't want it to sound like I'm being self righteous. I just wanted to express that I can't do anything without him. God bless you all. I love you. - Arnold
  • Studying captivity's of Israel - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Daniel and the others had to learn the language of their captors. After 70 years they were set free. They could speak Hebrew again. That's all I'm sure of.

    Israel was captured periodically because of worshipping idols. That happens all through the Bible.

    This would mean reading all of the Bible.
  • Choosing Life or Death. Is God fair? - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hebrews Chapter 9

    25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;

    26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of HIMSELF.

    27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

    28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

    [People die naturally, or in many other ways.

    Only the people who die with their names recorded in the Book Of Life, will be raised to life again. They've already been judged when they received Jesus's Salvation.

    Everybody not written in the Book of Life will be judged at the Great White Throne Judgement. All good deeds, sins and refusal to receive Jesus's free gift of Salvation, will be Reviewed. The sentence of death will remain.]

    Eternal life, OR Eternal death are the only choices.
