    Your word Zodiac is not in the KJV BIBLE. However the study of Zodiac is Astrology. It is a religion; NOT a science. The penalty for practicing and misleading others, is DEATH.

    Daniel 2:10 | View whole chapter

    The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can shew the king's matter: therefore there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things at any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.

    "( Dan. 1:20; 2:2, 10, 27, etc.) Heb. ashshaph', an enchanter," one who professes to divine future events by the appearance of the stars. This science flourished among the CHALDEANS. It was positively forbidden to the Jews ( Deut. 4:19; 18:10; Isa. 47:13).

    Isaiah 47

    11 Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know.

    12 Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so be thou mayest prevail.

    13 Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the ASTROLOGERS, the STARGAZERS, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things that shall come upon thee.

    14 Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it.

    The book of Enoch is all about the Chaldeans. Worshippers of dark arts and are an abomination to a Holy God! So do a search of all the scriptures on the word CHALDEAN, in the KJV BIBLE. Use the SEARCH BOX engine on this website.

    I WAS an astrologer. I was saved on Yom Kippur, 1985. I had to fight demons as a baby Christian. Run from this! Jesus is your only hope to live.

    Remember what Jesus said ?

    If you love me you will keep my commandments. Not just the ones we want but all of them .

    It's certainly not easy to do that these days . But with his help it can be done . The church or the professing church is not a functional church for the most part because they do not follow NT teachings . That's why you have 100s of different churches . And they can not agree on many things . Follow the bible and you will be set free from dysfunctional churches . But you may need to depart from the dishonourable to be an honourable vessel unto the lord . These are tough times and finding faithful believers can be challenging. But they are out there !

    Remember Elijah? The Lord said I have Seven thousand that have not bowed to balam! Unknown to Elijah , but God always has a remnant .
  • Two Verses on REBELLION - 4 years ago
    1 Samuel 15:23

    For rebellion IS AS the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness IS AS iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.

    Jeremiah 28:16

    Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will cast thee from off the face of the earth: this year thou shalt die, because thou hast taught REBELLION against the LORD.

  • Heaven is all kinds of people just like it is at the Mall - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Ephesians 4

    3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

    4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;

    5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

    6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

    There is no separation in heaven. If we cannot accept the scriptures above, and do them

    Why in thunder and lightning does everyone say they want to go to heaven?

    Jesus is not a fire insurance plan, to get out of hell. He is Holy and Righteous. By reading the Bible faithfully, we know what He expects from us while we are still here on earth. Get your finger out of Genesis and read the Gospels of the New Testament.

    The Christian life is not a Hollywood movie. There's lots of those huh? Well that is a poor representation of what God is like and what heaven will look like. What is inside this Bible is where those answers come from. Study the God man, Jesus; all God and all man. He came to earth so we could not only see, but touch Him.

    We need to walk into Matthew 25 and figure out which one we are NOW, so we don't get a big shock at heavens gate. Sheep, Shepherd, Goat. Matthew 25:46

    There's a whole lot of bad stuff going on now. Clearly, prophesy is racing along. How many of you know what comes next? What will be fulfilled next?

    When I met Jesus, and took the Holy Spirits hand; I was reunited with a lonely 5 yr old child that played, the wisdom of the ants, with Someone who was real. I will never stray again!

    Why do you not listen to those who were in Gods presence living a miracle? Do our testimonies mean nothing to you? There's a link to testimonies on This Website. Did you read any yet?

    You'll never know God till you read His Bible. Isaiah 1:18, wouldn't you love to have all your arguments and sins, washed away forever? To love Jesus who did that for us? clean as snow.

    2 Peter 3:10 IT IS ALL GOING TO BURN UP.

    Today is the day of Salvation!
  • Chris - In Reply - 4 years ago
    I agree with what you've written Dianne. The leaders in the synagogues (Rabbis), as in the OT Temple, were always men, as they not only followed the pattern as laid out by the Lord God, but they also took on the deeper study of the Scriptures & other classical texts of Jewish scholarship which were out of reach to the ordinary Jew. I believe that is still the case today, with some exceptions.

    And therefore in the Church, this pattern was also followed, with Apostle Paul giving further reasons why this was so. Even though there has been evidence of women teaching or preaching in the Church from the very early days (including in non-mainstream Churches), it was not until the 19th & 20th Centuries & then the onset of the world wars, when men were drafted into service, leaving the pulpits empty, that women were compelled to fill the gap. And with the push for women emancipation, it seemed reasonable that women would begin occupying pulpits. And as with so much in society, when something begins to be accepted & becomes the norm, Truth & adherence to it, becomes remote & pointless & anyone who calls upon believers to return to the 'old paths', are looked upon with disdain. Fortunately, believers still have a choice as to what to accept as right & proper.
  • Rob - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Nike I agree with you on this matter , it's not popular these days but the NT is clear .
  • Rob - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Read 1 Corinthians ch 14 verses 33 to 38 . Women are not permitted to speak in the church or even under the law .

    It's the Lords commandment .
  • Rob - In Reply - 4 years ago
    The chapter is 14 of 1 Corinthians, read the whole chapter but verses 33 to 37 is the reference , that was intended . First post was wrong but not my post . ?

    These are commandments of the Lord .
  • Chris - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Thanks Dianne, I understand what you're saying here. However, without clear Scriptures to show us what other things took place in Genesis chapters 1 & 2 & how the dots ought to be connected with other Scriptures, we must leave our beliefs about the matters as simply speculation. As you mentioned, even the most learned folk, after all their research, can't find agreement over these things, how much should we be wary of postulating our opinions. It's not to say that any of these many views are wrong, but one can never know, & particularly if one should claim a divine revelation on the matter. I do wonder (on your point) that if the Earth lost its form & filling at the casting down of Lucifer, why has the Earth not retreated back into that condition, given Lucifer's present & relentless activity on Earth & in the hearts of men. Engaging thoughts - with no answer, at least none from the Word.
  • Jesse - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Jesus,

    We see an instance of that in Mark 1:40-45 where Jesus cured a leper. Right after Jesus cured this man, He says in verse 44, "See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them."



    Do you see what He is doing?



    He is saying don't tell anybody. Go directly to priest and say I want you to put me through the procedures that Moses gave so that I can go back into society. I am a leper, and I am cleansed!



    But you see, if the priest were to take him, and check him out, and say okay, make your sacrifice, and then set him aside for a week and keep him checked out, as soon as the priest were to say you are clean and you are able to go back into society, that priest is verifying the ministry of Christ.



    And Jesus didn't want anybody to hear about it. He didn't want word to get around that He did it.

    Verse 45 tells us that this man went out and told everyone. Now you have a huge crowd of people who are coming to see more miracles.

    But you see, the Lord didn't want an excitable crowd following Him. He didn't want people coming to Him for the wrong reasons, the wrong motives.



    Now the whole town is packed, and He goes out in the wilderness. If you want to receive from Jesus, now you have to go out in the wilderness, not in the city.

    What verse or verses specifically saids the word zodiac sign
  • Mishael - In Reply - 4 years ago
    He said that but many ran off and told lots of people.

    The reason was Prophesy. The timing had to be perfect.

    There is some charts on GOOGLE: one is Old Testament Prophesies fulfilled by the life of Jesus Christ. 459

    Another chart is prophesy that was fulfilled perfectly I might add, in Jesus Ministry on earth.

    On the day of his crucifixion, over 100 prophesies were fulfilled.

    It has the reference to the event and the scripture that it was fulfilling. You can look it up in your Bible.

    Go take a look at those charts. I may have done a cartwheel if my body could bend lol
  • Part 2 Become a Christian - 4 years ago
    That was a scene from the last Left Behind Movie.

    Just get a King James Bible. Most Walmart's have them. Goodwills and Salvation Army have them too.

    Everyone: USE THE SEARCH BOX ON THIS WEBSITE. Type in: CHINA

    THREE scriptures will appear that the names can be found on the maps in your Bible. The locations. We don't need NBC or the whitehouse tell us who unleashed most of the pestilences/pandemics in mans history. Why Not read EPOCH TIMES NEWS on YouTube?

    News networks spin the news for ratings. Kick that habit. Do Google, PAST PANDEMICS LIST. It has the death counts, where, dates. The Bible names China, Middle East, N Africa.

    These can all be verified.

    The vaccination confusion that it's the Mark of the Beast is wrong. The MARK is in the RIGHT HAND OR THE FOREHEAD. The vaccine is in the arm.

    It's almost Fall, so everyone should get a flu shot too.

  • Part one BECOME A CHRISTIAN - 4 years ago
    ANY OTHER FEARS can be relieved eternally, by giving your heart, mind and life to Jesus Christ right this minute.

    Respond: Believe, Repent, Confess, Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior

    To be saved, we must believe that Jesus is Lord and believe that He died for our sins. This confession acknowledges before God that we are unable to attain righteousness on our own and that we accept His plan for our lives.

    Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved. Amen! Acts 16:31

    Yet to all who receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. Book of John 1:12

    [Dear God, I believe in you and that your Son, Jesus Christ, is Lord. I believe in His sacrifice for my sins and His resurrection from the dead. I repent and ask forgiveness for my sins and I'm deciding now to follow you. Please, come into my life through the gift of your Holy Spirit. It is in the Lord Jesus' name that I ask and receive, Amen.]

    The Bible says doing these things with sincerity means YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN. (Follow Jesus) and you will have eternal life in heaven.

    1 John 5:13

    These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

    Use caution in trusting your feelings, as feelings change. Stand on God's promises- they never change. If you backslide, pray a prayer to re-commit.

    1 John 1:6-10, 1 John 2:1

    1 Corinthians 14 v 33 ,34 ,35 ,36 ,37

    These are commands of the Lord not options .

    Let's have ears to hear !
  • Earl Bowman - In Reply on Job 29 - 4 years ago
    Shirley, Job 29:1 ....continued his parable.....this chapter and some preceding and some following this chapter are prophesies about Christ, much like Psalms 22. Study it in this light and it will make more sense to you. The pronoun I, is Christ speaking, not Job. Remember it's a parable.

    Find out if their is a battered women's shelter near you. Call your police dept to get that location. Ask about a restraining order.

    Call the shelter and find out how to proceed, what items to bring with you. (Birth certificates, etc) don't try to take too much or he'll know you're planning to leave. The shelter can advise you how to proceed legally.

    I hope sincerely that there are some police reports on file; but if not, get out now. Take what money you can without alerting him. It's possible the shelter will have inside daycare so you can work. DO NOT tell friends and family members, employer, where you are, in case he tries to hurt them too.

    Work out details after you and the child are protected.

    Priority is to get somewhere safe NOW, TODAY.

    Later: On your phone, Google, battered women's shelter and your zipcode.

    Have ATT or Best Buy Geeks check your phone for any Location tracking programs or apps in it. Have those removed.

    Come back here anytime. We're all here to help

  • Mishael - In Reply on Revelation 1 - 4 years ago
    I guess I started that fracas. As a rule, Jesus wasn't buddies with the religious Pharisees and Sadducees.

    He did share with Nicodemas and tell him he needed to be born again. Like....

    I shared with some JW ladies my testimony and a little human kindness. I didn't tell them they're going to hell and slam the door. I did say when the world starts unraveling at the seams... they might want to use a KJV Bible to understand what's happening next.

    I planted some seeds. Later I asked the Lord to rain on those seeds. End of story.

    I'm an old evangelist and I've seen everything, on the streets. Heard zillions of excuses. There would be more salvations if Christians would pray to the LORD OF THE HARVEST. Every day. Who knows what a little seed and a lot of rain can accomplish.

    Even children need to hear the gospel. Who knows what age "the age of accountability" is??

    This is a forum to teach evangelism. We have to get over the "fear of man" to cold contact a friend or neighbor with their need. If we don't know how to start, there are scads of websites on google that are teaching it.

    I didn't have that when I first got started. I did it all wrong and got zero results. I returned home dejected and laid my head on my arms. Next I hear a voice saying, "Are you done doing it your way?" My head popped up, and I said Yes Jesus!!! The rest is history.
  • Rob on Luke 9 - 4 years ago
    Some thing I cannot stress enough through experience and the Wisdom of the word of God .

    ALWAYS give Jesus the last word on any matter . If any other contradicts What Jesus says they are wrong .

    Jesus said in Luke 21 and Matthew 24 " beware lest any man deceive you " . If you stick with Jesus words you will be the minority, but on the right road . May God bless those that will not settle for anything less than the truth !
  • Jesus - 4 years ago
    When Jesus performed miracles during his ministry, why would he tell them not to say anything? Just want to have a better understanding..
  • A - In Reply - 4 years ago
    I always asked my self the same question. Then, through learning how Christianity was spread (since they could not eliminated it) I believe that there was great effort made by the Romans and Greeks to input pagan believes into it and separate us from the truth nature of the bible. Consequently, the people have an ignorant understanding of the bible and of the Jews. We must read the bible.
  • A - In Reply on Numbers 15 - 4 years ago
    I think that verse makes reference to knowingly committing a sin vs unknowingly committing sins specifically in relation to the 10 commandments. Remember at this time when people committed sins they needed to make blood offering of rams and animals alike.
  • A - In Reply on Genesis 3 - 4 years ago
    I started from Genesis. Take your time. I make annotations and sometimes I have to go back to make sure I understand. I think that will help you understand why other things happened later on the Bible.

    Sure will Stephanie.

    Does your husband go to Church? If so talk to his pastor if you think it will help.

    And there is Ladies on the site might be able to help with advice also.

  • Dianne - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Ronald We are on the same page to me its not a case of my understanding, God wrote what he mean't some day we might believe this stuff. If it doesn't fit like a wet suit on a human so to speak somethings wrong. I walked out of a Church one time because a guy told a story of How God Killed a pastors child to teach Him and His wife a lesson, made me sick. You are not showing me that scripturally and I don't care how you twist it. My Bible says John 10:9 The thief cometh not but to steal, to kill, and to destroy. Verse 10 I am come that they might have life and have it more abundantly. I'll Go With Gods Word God Bless P.S. it's not a case what we think its a case of It Is Written.
  • Jesse - In Reply on Numbers 15 - 4 years ago
    Ron,

    I don't see Numbers 15:30-31 being connected to the unpardonable sin. To answer your question "Can a Gentile commit the unpardonable sin?" The answer to that is yes. It doesn't matter if a person is Jew or Gentile, anyone can commit the unpardonable sin. The word blasphemy means to reject. A person that rejects the testimony of God's Spirit when He comes to them and convicts them of their sin and shows them their need of a Savior, if they reject that testimony, they cannot be forgiven for that!
