    James 1:14 "But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust".
  • Adam - In Reply on Tobit 4:12 - 4 years ago
    Discernment and prayer should be used before automatically assuming every verse in the Bible applies to us. There were many specific instructions to people in certain circumstances in certain times, in certain places. For example: if I read Jonah 3:2 it says go to Ninevah- does that me I myself must go to Ninevah right now? Or do you think this is historical for our benefit to see how God instructed Jonah to go there?

    How about Genesis 6:14. If I read that, does that automatically I need to build an ark? Did God say that to me and only to me?

    Now, let's go back to your Tobit verse- does that truly mean what you say it means? Did you pray and ask God about it and see any confirmation from Him?

    What about other followers of God in the Bible who had mixed race spouses? I personally do not believe your interpretation applies as I do not see evidence for it. A current political movement is aimed at dividing people and making people feel entitled. It is deceptive and evil and I believe it's from satan and not God, based on the fruit and lies of this movement. I believe God over man. I will follow God over man and He said this: Galatians 3:28. God bless...

    Hi Denise.

    I'm going to try to answer your question and it might take 2 pages. This has the virgn birth tucked away here and the Lord working is shown in Jeremiah 22. We will come to it Later.

    Jesus was to be of the HOUSE "and" LINEAGE of David. "This is not synonymous " Jesus was to be of the seed of the woman. Hear you have the LINEAGE. Which goes through Nathan.

    I believe Sacha was right. The account in Luke is Mary's Genealogy. focusing on the humanity he starts with Joseph ends with Adam.

    Mathew beiing a Jew focus on the Legal rights starting with Abraham and ends with Christ. Here you have the House of David going through Solomon.

    But notice the twist in Jeremiah, "The last of the descendants of Solomon on the throne before they went into captivity.

    " Jeremiah 22:30. Thus saith the LORD, WRITE YE THIS MAN CHILDLESS, a man that shall not prosper in his days: FOR NO MAN OF HIS SEED SHALL PROSPER, SITTING UPON THE THRONE OF DAVID, and ruling any more in Judah. "A blood curse"

    That's why the lineage is through Mary and the Legal rights is through Joseph by Marriage. Solomons lineage was cut off at Jeconiah. And that's why Jesus is called the seed of "The woman ".

    Here I believe we have The House and The lineage of David.

    So we have Joseph of the House and lineage of David but the right to the throne by lineage was cut off at Jeconiah.

    However Jesus is not of the lineage of Joseph, He was of the seed of the woman by the Holy Ghost.

    Matthew 1:18.

    Matthew 1:20.

    I hope that helps.

    God bless.

    Moses was a man of color. So it doesn't apply to him. That is why God's grace covered Ethiopians and Moses.

    Sister Janet, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

    The temple IS NOT a temple made with wood and stone (and built on the temple mount in Israel).

    Revelation 21:22 And I saw no TEMPLE (in new Jerusalem) therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the TEMPLE of it (new Jerusalem).

    The Father and Son ARE THE TEMPLE (of new Jerusalem).

    When you are born again; the Father and Son, NOW come and live in you (new Jerusalem the Holy City).

    When you become the body that the Father and Son lives in (CHRIST IN YOU Colossians 1:27); then you become the TEMPLE.

    2 Corinthians 6:16 And what agreement hath the TEMPLE of God with idols (the works of man)? for ye are the TEMPLE of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them (the garden of God), and I will be their God, an they shall be my people.

    1 Corinthians 3:16 No ye not that that ye are the TEMPLE OF GOD, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth IN YOU?
  • Popeye on Mark 2 - 4 years ago
    Hi, my questions come from a fellow worker. He asked: Why do children suffer with sicknesses, i.e., Cancer, or any body organ problems? They are innocent. (I understand about the original sin, and I said that to him. He retorted, but why kids?) The other question was geared towards: Why are "faithful individuals constantly scrambling to make ends meet and individuals with not so reputable lives prosper? He said to me that he knew I would ponder the questions as I did for him before. I said to him that these are very difficult questions. (I have known these same questions in the past, and have not gotten an adequate answer that I could give to him.) I just trusted in the Lord, and that all questions may not have answers that I would understand. Please help me that I may pass it along to him. Thank you
  • I John 2:17 - In Reply - 4 years ago
    >"The Mark of the Beast doesn't come until after the Caught Up of Jesus's Church."

    That's almost certainly the rationale for virtually every mainline evangelical megachurch for not even addressing the possibility of it being the Mark of the Beast -- their absolute allegiance to a tendentious interpretational framework called pretribulationism.

    Mark of the Beast -- everyone who doesn't get the mark on his hand or forehead cannot buy or sell.

    Covid vaccine -- everyone who doesn't get the mark on his arm or face cannot buy or sell. This is already the case in virtually the entire globe save the U.S., which is quickly getting there. If it's not the mark of the beast it's certainly a dress rehearsal for it. Is that what you want to go along with?

    If the virus was intentionally engineered just so the world power structure could provide the "solution" and thus increase their power, that's a solution I think I'm gonna pass on.

    And why the demands for literally the entire population of the globe to get it -- if it works then why does everyone need it. And we know it doesn't work, because they keep dishing out new vaccine variants they want everyone to take as well. And its not even a vaccine in a traditional since -- its a completely novel (and largely untested) concept called an "RNA vaccine". (Admittedly this is stuff everyone should already know.) And there's a complete blackout of all completely valid information, e.g. if you already became positive for the virus and didn't get sick (or even if you did get sick) YOU DEFINITELY DO NOT NEED THE VACCINE NOW. And why the blackout in the world press for all known treatments for symptoms. It goes on and on and on.

    The crazy thing is, that after every megachurch in the country just willingly shut down for months, now they're demanding everyone get the vaccine or mask up at church (certainly true at the megachurch I grew up in.)
  • Torri on Ezekiel 34 - 4 years ago
    The flock of my pasture are MEN? Not WOMEN. We have been deceived. We all have our place and the pulpit for Women is not one of them.. As soon as women left the home, which we are Nurturing Beings the home ceased to move forward.. I'M all for being paid fairly but the world has made it us against them vise versa.
  • Jesse - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Earl,

    The word torment used in the parable of the rich man and Lazarus is the Greek word BASANOIS. The meaning from Greek to English would pretty much be the same as what we would understand torment to be. Whether it is mental anguish or physical torment, I think it can be both. It seemed to be both for the rich man. He seemed to be in a state of mental torment knowing that his family members (brothers) would soon be in this same place unless someone went to warn them. We also know that he was in physical torment, wanting the tip of his tongue to be cooled. Can you imagine that? Here is a man in physical torment and all he asks is for the tip of his tongue to be cooled. He didn't ask for someone to throw him a rope so he could get out!

    We also know that there is a place of eternal torment called the lake of fire. To tell you how the word torment is used in other verses would take a tremendous amount of time and space. That's a huge favor. I don't mind sharing my understanding with you but I'm not sure I want to tackle that one. The short answer is that the word torment means pretty much the same in English as it does in Greek.

    For the rich man in Hades, he's still in torment. One day he will be released, judged at the Great White Throne Judgement, and then cast into the lake of fire, a place of eternal torment.

    Sorry I couldn't give you more. If you want the verses to look them up, here are the ones I found:

    Matthew 8:29, Mark 5:7, Luke 8:28, Luke 16:28, 1 John 4:18, Revelation 9:5, Revelation 14:11, Revelation 18:7, Revelation 18:10, Revelation 18:15

    In the study of the KJV Holy bible the Revelation scriptures were enlightening to me, because I began to understand that the KJV Holy bible, 1611 was actually God's First Witness book and Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by MBE, 1875 was God's Second Witness book that is the Lamb's book of Life which is explained in my book, God's Comforters. Another Revelation scripture describing the Babylon Whore I understood was the world's private central banking systems which have corrupted all the nations of the world which is explained in my book, Whore of Future Babylon.

  • Mishael - In Reply on Matthew 1 - 4 years ago
    John I welcome everyone with comments, questions and conversation. We can talk in here. So keep coming back. We are all Gods family. We're all learning to be more like JESUS.

    I had to learn that. Fruits of the Holy Spirit.

    Jesus said of John the Baptist, a greater man had never been before. Sadly, in prison John started to doubt (Shall we look for another? ). Jesus replied.

    We're to put on Jesus. More Him and less Us. And I say that with great kindness in my heart.

    For me, you, and everyone else.

  • DATING AND MARRIAGE RECIPE FOR SUCCESS - In Reply on Tobit 4:12 - 4 years ago
    1 Timothy 2:2-6

    For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

    Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

    Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

    Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

    For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

    1 Timothy 1

    For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for MENSTEALERS, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine.

    This is what every country is experiencing. The Bible says that it will 'get worse and worse.' Your faith needs to be strong in what the New Testament teaches on these Last Days before Jesus's Return.

    Moses married a woman of color; so God does not forbid "mixed marriages".

    HOWEVER, He is OPPOSED to Christians marrying Unbelievers (listed above)

    Stay on target with your faith; attend Church (there is your harvest field for a mate). Visit other Churches with a friend.

    I do not mean to offend, but we need to look for godly Character with a loving heart. Adorned with the Fruit of the Holy Spirit. A fit body and a fine face CAN BE A TRAP engineered by Satan.

    Maybe your church has a War Room ministry that you can sit in and they will pray for your future husband to be on the road to find his Wife. Read Genesis 24. In this story, the Servant is the Holy Spirit. He's going to find your husband. This is a principle. You don't chase the man.

    DATING is for investigating character and habits that are contrary to scripture. 1 Corinthians chapters 6 & 7. Following this leads to a fireplace mantle of kids pictures and happy memories.

    Hi Chuck The context of what your looking for starts at John 15:1 Jesus Christ is the true vine, getting born again and doing the will of God his word you will bare fruit spiritually and every other way the word is the soil the more you stay rooted and grounded Ephesians 4:16+17 the more answers to prayer and abundance. The key is staying put and abiding or living by the spirit, it is written. Another point is constantly keeping the word so to speak plowing through your mind to be able to clearly listen to God. Just a few points God Bless

  • Dianne - In Reply on Matthew 1 - 4 years ago
    Hi English Sacha Absolutely correct, keep something in mind the seed of the woman was put there by God, that's why Jesus Christ had sinless blood, Leviticus 17:11 the life of the flesh is in the blood. Woman carries eggs not seed, God created seed in Mary. The human side was Mary and correct He was Judean which fulfilled all prophecy. In Hebrews 2:14 For as much then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood He Jesus also himself likewise took part of the same. His blood which was sinless His flesh Human the perfect sacrifice. Its really neat.
  • Mishael on Darts and Plagues - In Reply on Revelation 6 - 4 years ago
    DARTS

    2 Samuel 18:14

    Then said Joab, I may not tarry thus with thee. And he took three darts in his hand, and thrust them through the heart of Absalom, while he was yet alive in the midst of the oak.

    2 Chronicles 32:5

    Also he strengthened himself, and built up all the wall that was broken, and raised it up to the towers, and another wall without, and repaired Millo in the city of David, and made darts and shields in abundance.

    Job 41:29

    Darts are counted as stubble: he laugheth at the shaking of a spear.

    Ephesians 6:16

    Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

    NOTE: the word Corona is not in the Bible. You can Google, but

    If you are referring to the Sun or the corona virus, there are 3 scriptures that DO name China and the Middle East Palestinian nations as places where plagues have come from:

    3 PLAGUES IN THE BIBLE FROM ASIA & MIDEAST

    Revelation 9:14-18

    Matthew 24:14

    Isaiah 49:12

    China gave us Swine FLU. SARS virus, and Corona virus; which has killed before. I got a feeling that corona virus isn't done killing yet.

    Hi Uriah Look at a youngs concordance, the bible is a combination of Greek Hebrew and estrangelo aramaic, don't look at it as work, look at what you'll gain in understanding.
  • Adam - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hi Earl,

    If you're genuinely interested in my opinion can you please refine your questions to be more specific, because I don't completely understand what you're asking. For example, your first sentence sounds like a question, but seems like a different topic and you didn't end in a ? so you probably aren't interested in my opinion. "I know you believe you go to heaven, but do you believe that's all there is." I don't know what you mean by that either or how that relates to my comment to Gladys. What are your beliefs in regards to your own questions? God bless.

    Brother Adam, do you believe God's elect are going to judge the world.

    Do you believe the dead abiding in the grave, will be resurrected back in their bodies of flesh, but God's elect (already resurrected with Christ) will be in glorified bodies, like Christ was after his resurrection.

    We are all at different levels of understanding (exactly where God wants each of us to be at this point in our lives).

    I know you believe you go to heaven, but do you believe that's all there is.

    I'm just curious.

    When the Spirit is finished with us, we will all be the fulness of Christ.

    Ephesians 2:10 For we are his WORKMANSHIP, created in Christ Jesus unto (CHRIST) good works, which God hath BEFORE ORDAINED (no free will) that we should walk in them (CHRIST'S GOOD WORKS). Remember we are DEAD and there is ONLY one LIFE and that LIFE IS CHRIST.

    I know (I've been there) it's hard to give up traditions of man (free will); We are just the POT, made to ONLY hold the SPIRIT, the Spirit is the potter, the one doing all the WORK.

    Philippians 2:13 for it is God (SPIRIT) that WORKETH IN YOU both to WILL and TO DO his good pleasure.

    The Spirit reveals at his appointed time.
  • Doubts About The Vaccine - In Reply - 4 years ago
    I would get vaccine and continue to pray Psalm 91 over myself, family and friends. Also the,

    Agreement Prayer: Matthew 18

    19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

    20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

    The Bible warns of pestilence (pandemic) as a sign of the end of days.

    The Mark of the Beast doesn't come until after the Caught Up of Jesus's Church.

    Ask the Lord to BLESS AND SANCTIFY the vaccine, In Jesus Name before you are vaccinated.
  • Fatimah Williams on Tobit 4:12 - 4 years ago
