    The Kenites were believed to be related to the Midianites & were closely associated with the Israelites. Moses' father-in-law, Jethro, was a Kenite ( Exodus 3:1; Judges 1:16), as was Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite ( Judges 5:24). Some of the Kenites settled with the Israelites & became absorbed into the tribe of Judah.

    Where in the Bible does it say "children are a gift from God"
  • Preston - In Reply on Revelation 13:16 - 4 years ago
    Marco,

    I'm having a hard time with this. Can you back up any of these supernatural ideas you have. While the saints remain on earth, you will be taken out by God? Where in church doctrine is this stated, where in scripture because I can't find it. It must be supported by a faith. Did the people of WWII have the same mindset, did they live in the end-times too? My concern is the accuracy of your claims, interpretations, and the damage done otherwise. In my heart of hearts, the saints are the only ones worthy of the honor, the rest can wait.

    Israel is not behaving in its best interests against Iran. Instead of brokering peace, they welcome evil. Let's not forget Iran takes part in the sacking of Israel ( Ezekiel 38:7), so any offensive can be costly.

    Headlines:

    *Israel is ready to strike Iran, Defense Minister Benny Gantz said Thursday, as tensions between the two countries continue to mount.

    *Israel warns Tehran is only '10 weeks away' from acquiring weapons-grade materials

    For the past 40 years Israel has been repeating this mantra of crying wolf.

    How can there possibly be a "mark of the beast", when the beast hasn't come of age yet? The only logical explanation for such a concept is due to lack of Biblical knowledge.
  • Christine - In Reply on Revelation 13:16 - 4 years ago
    Revelations 13:16-18 states the mark of the beast will either be on the forehead or right hand. It will be visible...a vaccination is injected into your body and unseen. So no the vaccination is not the mark of the beast.
  • Glenn - In Reply on Revelation 13:16 - 4 years ago

    Hi Vince.

    Thanks for responding, Years ago I too used to try to minister to the JW, I learned quite a bit about their beliefs, I studied on how to minister to them as well as the Mormons, and Muslims. The JW's have a systematic doctrinal Defense against our faith. They have organized little books in their briefcase on how to deal with difficult doctrine we may lay on them. They try to take what's going on in the secular world and appeal to your flesh using the watchtower magazine. They attempt to draw a picture of us being in the tribulation period and it's up to them to usher in the kingdom. They don't go after those who is strong in their faith. They prey on the unlearned mostly. Their goal is to get you to come to one of their conventions so you can see the numbers. They have been brainwashed to believe they have the truth. They believe the Holyspirit is a force and not God and the spirit don't indwell the believer. Anything you try to present to them they treat it like a curse. " Prayer, literature, your Bible, ect." It seems to give them confidence when you reject them because they think they travel through the narrow gate. They seem to take it as confirmation. I guess that's why the scripture says don't give such a group God speed. I must admit I'm confused at this because now how do you minister to them? It's like they are damned. I would suggest Prayer, I don't think I was ever able to win any over to Christ but I've been able to wrestle some of their targets out of their grip. As I say this has been many years ago.

    God bless.

  • Vince Franco - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Thanks for everyone's response. I was talking to my brother who is a JW and I really dont pay attention to what he says but we were talking and he kept talking about how they took the name of Jehova out of the bible and how Jehova is going to get rid of this system and about making it through the tribulation, I told him I wont be here for that that Ill be gone.
  • Marco Tiffer - In Reply on Revelation 13:16 - 4 years ago
    The mark of the beast will happen only after we have been raptured and it the Bible says that it will be on our hands and or our foreheads. How do I know this its because the mark of the beast is related to worshipping the beast. The beast will come only after the church( the wife) has been rapture which then the world will descends into total chaos. Will then the beast will rise up. I apologize because I didn't put any verses I was just searching for another verse in job and happen to run into this comment so I thought I might shed some clarity. I urge you to do your own research and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you new revelations that can help you understand the scriptures. :) God bless you abundantly and have a blessed day!!!!!!!!

    Amen Brother Jesse.

    Their doctrine doesn't Just deny the Jesus we know, They also deny the bodily resurrection.

    jesse A great statement I heard many years ago that fits spiritually, sincerity is no guarantee for truth, easily stated takes time to understand at least for me.
  • Dianne - In Reply on Revelation 1 - 4 years ago
    Had the experience of speaking to JW's twice, first time they don't believe Jesus Christ is son of God 2nd I was told the earth we live on now is the new one to come I showed them Gods Word they said we have our own bible I said have a nice day.
  • Dianne - In Reply on Revelation 1 - 4 years ago
    The epistle of 2 John makes mention of this verses 6-11 if I'm understanding correctly, to the best of my understanding.
  • Dianne - In Reply on 1 Kings 4 - 4 years ago
    Those are great examples of Gods grace even to others outside of The children of Israel, that came to Israel and said we want worship your God His way. Made available to fullest extent after day of pentecost by Jesus Christ.
  • Jesse - In Reply on Revelation 1 - 4 years ago
    Mishael,

    Please do not take this the wrong way because I know you love the Lord and have a true concern for the spiritual welfare of others. Everything you share is out of love and concern for others, so the motives of your heart are quite evident. If the Lord puts it on your heart to go door to door with the gospel, you're to be commended. But we should not commend those who are going from door to door spreading a false gospel. The JW's are listed as one of the largest cult groups in the world. They are spreading a false gospel and should not be commended for that regardless of their zeal.

    I've spoken to some JW's in the past and from my experience, it is almost impossible to share with them the same Jesus that you and I know and love. They do not want to hear it. They refuse to hear it. I have nothing against a believer going door to door, but only if the Lord is putting it on their heart to do so, otherwise the Lord is not going to bless that, even if they are "doing it for the Lord!"

    I still have them, along with the Mormons come to my door on occasion. I refuse to let them into my home. I am never rude to them. I just tell them I'm not interested and they leave. We are told in 1 John 1:10 that those who come to you bringing false doctrine, we are not to let them into our house, neither bid them God speed (Well greetings), because if we do, we are partakers with them in their evil deeds. Evil deeds are not to be commendable.

    Again, please don't take this the wrong way. What what you are doing is completely different than what the JW's are doing. You may do things like going door to door because the Lord is putting it on your heart to do so, but they are going door to door for a different reason. They go door to door because each one of them has a quota that they must meet each month. The Lord is not going to bless that because it is not of Him. The Lord will never send people to your door to bring a false gospel, false doctrine, or a false Jesus!
  • An on Revelation 14 - 4 years ago
    God is the same today as was in the old testament.

    He gave his laws to guide us, teach us and to help us remember Him as our Creator.

    Lucifer, the light bearer, decided to take the place of our Creator. He took one third of the angles to believe him. He also wants to claim the earth. His wants to destroy our connection to our Creator by destructing our attention, destroying the Word of God(or changing it) and through persecution of people who follows God's comment.

    God says, "Keep my commandments"

    Any one who teaches different is the Antichrist. Which means, only you could follow God's Word or by not following, becoming Antichrist.

    Anyone who wants to follow Christ, will find opposition and persecution.

    The christians were persecuted, they couldn't worship God: so many came to America. Is it possible that the Beast rising up from the Earth is America?

    Do Americans have freedom today as was 100-200 years ago?

    Maybe things are changing, not for better.

    However our faith is in God, who gave proof of His love towards us, humans by sending his Son, Christ to us. Have faith in God and his Son, Jesus Christ.
  • Be Kindness to Others and Believe in the Bible - In Reply on Revelation 1 - 4 years ago
    Good morning. I know what you are saying is true. I could just NOT open my door. Something inside me said to be kind. I told them my testimony, and why I believed IN Jesus. They tried to hide the truth about why Jesus's name wasn't in their Bible. I said it's not right when your Church doesn't have the same Bible as everyone else.

    It's like, they know, but don't want to admit to it. I told them I was a street evangelist for Jesus Christ. I was not ever going to toss out what I know to be true. They stopped trying to convert me. I don't know how that's going to pan out for them.

    I hope that as real prophesy and the end times speed up, they might think that Christianity is the Truth. Like Ezekiel, we tell them the TRUTH, so their blood is not on our hands, so-to-speak. We've done our best to communicate it. Then we pray for the Holy Spirit to do the part that we cannot do: convict them of their Need of Jesus, for sins.

    I NEVER apologize for what God requires to be born again. We have to agree we sin. It's there like a big Stop Sign at the intersections of life.

    How can 2 walk together unless we be agreed, as touching the truth. It was last Christmas, that I let my JW friends know we were not going to be able to agree on who or what TRUTH IS. It's Jesus Christ. He's knocking on the door of our hearts.

    I have very strong convictions about television and media, but I do not force anyone to share that with me. I find the Bible to be entertaining. I LOVE to tell the stories. Like, how Gideon was hiding from God behind a wall, lol. Like, don't pick me; pick someone else. God saw something in him that Gideon didn't see. God really was patient through the fleece process. Then Gideon finally agrees, and the Lord whittles his army down to some guys who drink water with their eyes UP looking for the enemy. That's humor, drama, everything.

    There's a lot of stories like that. And it's sad that more people can't communicate this to others.
  • Dianne - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hi Angie Could you explain that more clearly please. We were given our eternal spiritual salvation through Jesus christ after pentecost it was available. That's my understanding, but as it says in Romans 6: complete chapter at the end verse this applies since genesis, the wages or working of sin is always death. But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our lord. Just something to think about.

  • Johnathan Taylor - In Reply on Revelation 1 - 4 years ago
    Alex,

    The problem lies in handed down man made doctrines. Rather that reading the accounts for themselves, they choose the easy path as opposed to the path less traveled. The answers are there for the taking. Discerning the word equals dividing the truth.
