    That's a great verse, but others might believe Acts 2:38 or Mark 12:30-31 is actually the heart and soul of the Bible.

    You chose to put emphasis on belief which even satan and demons may believe. But other verse emphasize your actions such as repentance, confession, baptism, faith, love, or obeying God.

    A small percent of Christians believe it's impossible for them to ever lose their salvation, despite whatever future sins they choose to commit, but the Bible doesn't say that. We can have assurance of salvation IF we follow Jesus Christ. It assumes that Christians (Christ followers) are actually following Christ and obeying Him!

    This seems like a no-brainer, but should be stated, because there are indeed many Christians using their hope in salvation as an excuse to sin- as if they have an unlimited hall pass or something, ignoring the fact that sin is highly disrespectful to God, like spitting on Him, and assuming you know better than Him, and turning your back on Him. Think of a selfish and stubborn 4-year old throwing a tantrum in front of his parent.

    They're told they're saved in sermons and that the race is already won and so they go commit all kinds of sins and try to enjoy themselves as they turn their back on Jesus. Some may even blaspheme the holy spirit, which the Bible clearly says is an unforgivable sin. The Bible also says to fear God- fear the one who can send you to hell. God is a loving fair God, but some people falsely assume He's a genie in a lamp there to serve you. Nope, it's the opposite. You are the servant... to righteousness. Romans 6:18, John 14:15. I don't hear this message very often and feel it's my moral duty to remind of this and to try their best to genuinely follow Jesus and to stay on course and avoid sin. Some may need to hear this today and it might be a perspective they've never heard.

    2 Peter 2:20-21

    God bless. Jesus is coming soon. The time is now to be prepared.

    50-60 years ago it was popular to distrust the government and preserve freedom.

    Today: people willingly carry around personal tracking devices (smart phones) everywhere they go and even have voice monitoring services at home (alexa, home, homepod) that records and sends everything said to giant corporations that both sell such information and share with government oversight. Lust for Orwellian control leads government to start arresting people for "thought crimes" despite being in a "free society," and the citizens cheer and demonize anyone who questions it... until one day it happens to them and they are cancelled.

    Lucifer took his fallen angels, AND , a third of our brothers & sisters,.. Giving our Heavenly Father much distress, dose he just kill , Lucifer, the fallen angels & a third of his children ? ? ? If you ever had any children, can you imagine killing anyone of them ? ? ? Hence , he created this age , for us all to be born of woman one time , to decide for ourselves, weather we love God or Lucifer,.. The words born again, is actually born from above, an if you are in a flesh body, then you have been born again ( from above). Threw water, ( the water breaks just prior to a woman's time to give birth) an into flesh,.. an the anti- Christ, comes in ( book of Daniel). Peace & prosperity, that's the deceiving part , for all think he comes to kill an mane ,.. an that's how Jesus warns us that he comes as a thief in the night, for most everyone will think he's already here,..

    peace

    According to 1 cor 12:29-30 all gifts is not given to every believer? some are teacher, some are apostles and preacher.

    well what i am trying to get at is do everyone has the gift to speak in tongues and to interprup as well. if not why do pentecostal church encourages there people to pray in tongues (their heavenly langauge)

    While the flesh may war against the spirit, the flesh will reveal things unto yourself. In some, this could cause a condition of sycosis. Jesus dealt with these who suffered from this weakness, even so today their are many who suffer and perhaps are not aware of it. This condition of the flesh will deceive the spirit into thinking something is or is not true. While we hear Jesus word and abide in Christ, the flesh is determined to weaken the soul (spirit), the flesh is subject to vanity, and of course the enemy to those things that be of God and His will!

    There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

    My generation has been subjected through the media, television, and movies, Make believe! The effects of holly wood, determined what in many cases would leave or stay in the mind. As with this generation it shall also be subject to such vanity, even as was then. Vanity of vanities!

    We hear the words of Pilate "what is truth"? These words spoken to the creator. This is his answer for you and me.

    "Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice."

    If the voice you hear is not Christ's, than you are being deceived, and the truth is not in you! Abiding in Christ, will certainly keep and protect you! If you are not in Christ, you will be subject unto those whose end has been determined. Remember His words, as his redemption draws nigh. As the net being drawn , such are these times . Repent and be baptized

  • English Sacha - 4 years ago
    Hi everyone , I would like to address the fact that I'm a woman talking about the Bible . Sacha is not my real name , I picked it because it can be a male or female name and when I first came on here I had no intention of revealing my gender . It didn't take long on here for me to feel that I was being a bit deceitful so I came out so to speak . If you are offended by me then please don't read my posts , that's the simple answer , I will not be offended , everyone must act in accordance with their own conscience towards God . May God bless us all as we seek to learn of Him and grow closer to Him . Much love to you all in Christ .

  • Brother dan - In Reply on John 3 - 4 years ago
    Not if we continue to live a life of sin.

    Even the devil and his demons believe. Are they going to heaven too?

    50 years after Jesus died he revealed the below scripture to apostle John.

    Revelation 12:12-14

    12And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. 13I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. 14Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

    Above is the Judge telling us what we will need to enter in through the gates of the city - Heaven!

    There is NO FREE TICKET!

    God Bless.
  • Carleton - In Reply on John 3 - 4 years ago
    Thank you! A morning meditation. One beautiful thing that the one sinner on the cross beside the Lord did, was to establish his need for reconciliation with God, just as Jesus was near ready to finish by love, the Work of reconciliation. This thief in the world lined up his unrighteousness to the one beside him that new no sin and he judged himself as lost. He loved the Lord and wanted to be part of His finished work which is peace with God and man. Jesus answered this cry before the Work was finished and saved this man in his sins and promised His home in Paradise to the now saved sinner. This is another proof that Jesus was and is God as the Work was not yet finished. For those whom have come after this moment we can look back to this precious finished work at Calvary in awe. There is no excuse for any not to believe in Jesus as the only Savior of man and surrender their separated will from the Will of the Father and they will know that their sins were forgiven by a peace that is beyond understanding and a power to stay turned away from willing sin.

    Thanks Mishael , I've written her name down and will check her out . Many times I've been in difficulties of one sort or another , scared or worried or sometimes can't sleep or think straight and I just keep saying the Lord's prayer over and over in my head and it soothes me calms me comforts me always .

    Sigh , my second answer and I meant that : bodily exercise is good for NOTHING not anything , sorry .
  • English Sacha - In Reply on 1 Corinthians 1 - 4 years ago
    DWL , I cannot deny these scriptures , I will say however that I don't take Paul's advice and guidance as commandments . I believe that somewhere he says that bodily exercise is good for anything and we all know thats not true . All Paul's advice and guidance is perfectly good and appropriate but I don't believe them to be commandments . If they were I wouldn't have been able to attend my church with my bald head when I had chemotherapy . Women can go bald , if they do does that mean they can't go to church ? If they covered their bald heads with a wig wouldn't that be a vanity ? See what happens when you start to be dogmatic about something which is good practical advice and guidance not a commandment ?

    Arnold , please be carefull about what you do and say at work , if you did that in England you would probably be disciplined or even loose your job . Remember we mustn't tempt God by behaving rashly and getting ourselves into trouble . Much love in Christ .
  • English Sacha - In Reply on John 3 - 4 years ago
    Please do , we all come on hear to learn from each other , we don't all always agree but we are all on the same path I believe . God wants us all and He brings us together on here to help each other grow in understanding of appreciation of Him , His Son and each other , hopefully !

    For the life of me, I fail to see how the rapture is connected to the Bible verse in question... 2nd Chronicles 29:30...please help...what I DO see is that while the burnt offering was BEING offered, they used musical instruments, and when the offering was FINISHED then they DID NOT use musical instruments but instead sang with their voices and this is clearly in line with Ephesians 5:19 and Colossians 3:16....also in line with God rejecting Cain's offering of things Cain sweat for and accepting Abel's offering of something he had no part in doing...

  • Election Truths Coming Out of the Closet - In Reply - 4 years ago
    I'm convinced ordinary people who took those videos on election night, still have them.

    YouTube and Google are joined now and probably wouldn't allow those videos to be uploaded.

    Those of us that stayed up all night, through the next day, Saw Them.

    If we had a 2nd election Today, I'm positive there would be a different result.

    We need to contact representatives and Demand stronger restrictions on Ballot Safety.

    In Austin crooks we're knocking down postal boxes to get at the ballots. Ballots with dead people identities were Discovered!

    People showed videos of unmarked trucks picking up boxes of ballots in Unmarked Trucks behind the voting stations.

    Many ballot counters observed boxes being brought in and boxes taken away.

    "They" didn't even lay low and act sneaky over what they did. Nine months later, they're making our lives pure hell. You should contact Ted Cruz and disclose what you know. Let them investigate.

    Biden closed the Keystone Pipeline which was For Americans!! Now He's selling the oil to Putin so he can get what he wants from European Countries in return for American oil. No pay, no got heat in those cold winters.

    We are seeing the beginning of Antichrists Kingdom. Biden is too clueless to be a big player. He's a pawn.

    You are correct , if you haven't read the Old Testament please do , it's even clearer in there and it's what Jesus believed in and was brought up on .

    Beloved of God, your name is in my Bible to pray for you every day. You are my brother.
  • English Sacha - In Reply on Psalms 27 - 4 years ago
    Oh Debra I am so sorry for your families loss . When we pray to God we are doing good to ourselves , our hearts are communicating with our Heavenly Father , prayer isn't just about the words , it's about connecting on a spiritual level with our God . The Creator and Sustainer of all life . If you could pick up the phone and talk to Him you would wouldn't you ? That's what prayer is , when you open your heart in prayer you get the most awesome comfort and strength to bear the trials of this life . He hears and He helps , maybe not in the way you hoped for or wanted but I promise you if your heart is really open to Him you will know for sure that He is our strength , He sustains us , He will help .
  • English Sacha - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hi RLW ,I was so relieved to read your post and one or two others who responded to mine . I honestly thought a was going to have rotten tomatoes thrown at me for it . When it comes to the Truth I do wear my heart on my sleeve , I genuinely can't help it . In person I'm quiet and laid back etc but once I start talking about the Truth it's a different me . The Truth is my joy my peace my strength my comfort and my sanity . When it comes to it and talking about it my heart is flesh , the rest of the time I'm a cool tough nut so I've been told ! Thankyou for your posts , please don't desert us , we all need each other on here I believe , we are smoothing each others sharp corners off .
  • Take no thought... - In Reply on John 1 - 4 years ago
    Hello S.Spenser , I'm having a problem accessing the thread . However , from memory , you said something about not believing that Adam and Eve were ejected from the garden of Eden to prevent them from eating of the Tree of Life , you said something about them already having life in them . I believe that the tree of life is a foreshadow of Christ . I directed you to the scriptures that refute your belief . Sorry if I misunderstood you .
  • Our Society is Imploding Fast. We're near The End - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Paranoia is not of Gods spirit. It's invisible and you need to fight back..as in Ephesians 6.

    We're living in a time when we need to take the same energy we use, railing on the Government, and loose it on the Devil.

    It's hard because we can't see the devil, but we sure can see the results he causes.

    Common people? Halloween is a modern day Satanic Holliday. It's an abomination to a Holy God. November 1, is All Saints Day (a Christian holiday). Google the tradition.

    Why are we hanging orange lights? Be stronger than the herd mentality.

    Go on the ALCJ website and hear how fast our religious freedoms are going away.

    If you wanna see what the end times MAY LOOK LIKE. It's a movie. It's not Wizard of Oz.

    Revelation Station Movie.1 hour 44 minutes of chaos on earth.

    An innocent afternoon of parents and children at a baseball game being gunned down by imported terrorists. Could that happen here?

    And it's not God being mean or unreasonable. He told us these things would happen at the end. ONLY the Born Again Christians Will Escape It.

    I think the personality of the Antichrist is fully explored. He'll look like a Politician who has really plausible ideas. Then he turns evil. He wants us dead.

    I do think Right Now we are seeing how quickly our Politicians can turn against the people. The money is not for Green Projects. It's for a Worldwide War. Matthew 24 is happening. They bully us to get vaccinations. Fire us from jobs if we don't. I think it's a precursor for when all money changes to Government Control. Gold Standard will end and Cashless Will Begin.

    Our only hope for a new future is to turn ourselves fully towards Jesus Christ. People Hate the Unknown. It's a Default Setting inside of our egos. Realize Now, Jesus will Save Us. Let Your Faith Be Settled To Trust Your Life With Him.

    When you finally choose Jesus, that Incredible Peace Comes Over Your Soul. God will take us to a Safe Place. Give Faith a chance.

    Mishael

    You are bang on as we say over here , in UK they even want us to have smart electrical meters , that way the government can find out if we are home or not by how much electricity we are using . Recently our TV transmitter was broken so a large area could not receive digital TV at all , unless you got your TV over the internet via cable or satellite , we who still just have our TV through a physical ariel on the roof were either pitied or ridiculed for not having internet TV , in some cases we were offered special deals so we could get hooked up . This has gone on for the last three months . I believe that we will be enticed to get the mark of the beast . So many people really are sheep , just believing whatever their government tells them . We humans love a good deal , the mark will sound like the best deal ever .
