    Carry Lennert,

    I'm not sure what you are working on, this is not to cause debate, I hope you don't mind if I may give some information that may help you on your search. You say they did not know at sundown and that is when Joseph took His body. Jesus was crucified on the Passover day, 14 th of Nisan, which was a preparation day for the Feast of Unleavened Bread 15 th - 21 st, which the first day is a holy convocation. That is a sabbath day that the only work you could do is to prepare food to eat. There were two Sabbaths, Friday and Saturday John called it a high day ( John 19:31). ( Exodus 12:3-11) ( Leviticus 23:5-7), ( Numbers 33:1-3)

    They had to get Jesus down and in the tomb, before the sun went down, when the sun goes down it starts the next day, the 15 th that started the feast of Unleavened Bread the night they ate the Passover which the first day is a Sabbath. ( Matthew 27:46-50) ( Mark 15:34-37) ( Luke 23:52-56) ( John 19:30-31). The ninth hour is 3 to 4 PM, The preparation and Sabbath they are talking about, the 14 th Passover day, the 15 th, the first day of the feast that will start at sundown.

    It may seem a long time from 3 PM to 7 PM but look at what happened after Jesus gave up the ghost, people went to Pilate to partition that the bodies be taken down. He sent the soldiers to go and break their legs at would take a while before they would die. The reason they broke their legs was they could not push up with their legs so they could breathe, so they die of asphyxia.

    After that Joseph of Arimathaea went to Pilate asking for Jesus' body, Nicodemus, a Pharisee that first met Jesus at night not wanting to be seen, brought the spices for the burial. When Joseph of Arimathaea went to Pilate he did not believe Jesus was dead already, he even sent for the centurion to verify Jesus had died that quickly. You would think 6 hours would be long enough. ( Mark 15:44-45).

    I hope this little amount of information will help, 2000 characters are short.

    Abram believes the power and promises of God. Melchizedek is the high priest sent from God to bless Abram! This is the beginning of the kingdom, the kingdom that proclaims the coming savior! Abraham tithes the spoils, unto the King of the future kingdom, the communion of bread and wine that would become the victory found in the atonement of Christ sacrifice!

Abraham tithes the spoils, unto the King of heaven and earth! Check out the word to the Hebrews in the new testament.

    Norman Walker,

    If anyone tries to Jesus bully me on the boards, I will super Jesus steamroll them.

    Elijah steamrolled 450 priests of Baal....the swine ran off the cliff.

    See you at the Revelation 16:16 Jehoshaphat blood drive, get a cookie.

    Amen. Thank you!
  • David on 2 Samuel 11 - 4 years ago
    Lately, after reading the scriptural passages and reading the posts on this forum I find myself thinking of my own life. This is me, and I pray no one on this platform thinks I am pointing fingers at everyone else.

    I thank the Lord for everyone who takes the time to post their thoughts and encouragement for all who come to this forum. The Lord be praised for His long suffering and mercies to me and all who seek Him. I know I should not sin, but when I repent my God is a Loving and a Forgiving God. Thank you Lord for your Word. 2 Timothy 3:16, 17. For your Holy Spirit in me and all who are yours. Ephesians 4:30.

    Although it seems as if we are losing the battle, fret not, we win the war! As we used to say in school, I know because I read the last chapter of the book.

    May the Lord bless all, and may we all follow hard unto the Lord God Jesus Christ.

    Pray for those in Authority and also the lost.

    Sacha,

    I always delight to read your posts, especially while I eat my English breakfast, sipping on a cup of English tea, alongside my English sheep dog. Goosebumps. You really outdid yourself today; no one is accidentally like a martyr.

    The best paths to take are the narrow lanes. I might get a visceral reaction to one of God's children in the comment section, their rampant ignorance makes me want to drain their bank accounts, but not enough to develop any mad psychotic hatreds. I like to think I am an average hater, a surface road narrator, pushing and shoving my way into heaven like a 13 year old girl at a Beiber concert.
  • Dianne - In Reply on Psalms 28 - 4 years ago
    Dianne I agree The word trinity is not in Bible and God did not raise Himself from the dead, and the scriptures say no man has ever seen God, Jesus Christ Displayed the word and will of our and His Father. It's an individuals priviledge to agree or disagree respectfully yours.
  • Sacha - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Seth , please , tell me all these errors , I'm serious , you can't expect to say that and to not give plenty of examples , please do so , I'm genuinely interested .
  • Sacha - In Reply - 4 years ago
    What a fab post , so full of joy , thank you so much .
  • Sacha - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Spike , as Melchizedek is the priest I have always assumed that Abraham gave him tithes . I could be wrong .
  • Dianne - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Jesse with all due respect in Gospel of John 14 Jesus Christ said those who believe in Him. He did not qualify just apostles also after pentecost miracles were done by other believers. P.S. I personally have had several in my life. God Bless
  • Sacha - In Reply on Psalms 91 - 4 years ago
    Taylor , maybe what you are asking for is not part of God's plan for you ? Maybe He has other things He wants you to do ? Be patient , you can be sure He loves you and knows what is best for you , He will put you where you need to be ,stay cool and wait for Him .
  • Eric Lopez on Ecclesiastes 11:9 - 4 years ago
    We do not forget the past nor shut the door on it. Remember where we came from to not repeat the past.
  • Take no thought - 4 years ago
    John Ch 21 ,V 1-19 . Apart from the obvious narrative , what is happening here ? Firstly Jesus gives Peter the opportunity to make up for his three fold denial of him by asking him 3 times "lovest though me " . Secondly Jesus is telling Peter and the other disciples with him , this fishing isn't your job any more "feed my sheep " , that's Peters new job , and thirdly Jesus is showing Peter and the others that they don't need to worry about providing for themselves and their families , if they have them , Jesus will provide , he will feed them . I have found that very often in scripture there is a lot more going on than that which is at first apparent .
  • Chris - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Spike, it was Abraham who paid tithes to Melchizedek (see Hebrews 7:1-6).
  • Dianne - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Let us strive to keep focus on it is written, events change circumstances and conditions change Jesus Christ the same yesterday today and Forever. God Bless
  • Gaynor - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Spike in response to your question, yes Melchizedek King of Salem was trying to give Abram the Processor of the most high God his tithes due to him delivering his enemies into thine hands.
  • Dianne - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Jack Sir with all due respect the original Word of God was Given to men that God Showed what He wanted written, so you want to shoot blame try the author and Good luck with that. Just Saying. God Bless

    Spike Second one
  • Dianne - In Reply on Psalms 28 - 4 years ago
    Laura There are Christians who believe He's Son of God and God the son, and there's others that believe just son of God I know historically that the Trinity did not start until constantine decreed the nicene creed. Now here's what Gods Word says Jesus said I am my father are one, also I can do nothing without my father, no man has seen God at any time, God is spirit, the word trinity is not in the bible. Personally I don't go down the road because depending on the individual its discussed with it can be very contentious. Also there are clergy and scholars who debate this. So work the word.
  • Dianne - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Jesse With all due respect in Gospel of John 14:10-14 Jesus Christ said those that believe in me, this is not just addressed to the apostles, after day of pentecost as Paul writes in the Church epistles we were given Christ in us and all the power that comes with the package deal. In the book of acts there were other believers than the apostles that did miracles. In Mark 16: 17-20 Jesus Christ said those that believe not Just the apostles.
  • Gaynor - In Reply on Psalms 91 - 4 years ago
    Taylor as you pray as God to reveal to you the things that are blocking your blessings. Sometime things and/or people in your life can prevent you from getting what the Lord has for you. As you pray stand on God's word and truly believe in what you are asking him to do for you. God is a man that he shall not lie, if he said he it then it shall and will come to pass. So though you are weary faint not because the Lord is with you and he will not allow you to fall.
  • Spike - 4 years ago
    In the book of Genesis Chapter 14:18-20 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God. And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.

    My question is: Is it Melchizedek giving tithes of all he has to Abram? or is it Abram giving tithes of all he has to Melchizedek?
  • Alex - 4 years ago
    James said is there any sick among you let him call on the elders of the Church, But that has been cut off, As Jesus said I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD BUT THE NIGHT COMES WHEN NO MAN CAN WORK . NO MAN . How do the Priests and the Ministers do mourn for the NEW WINE ,the New Covenant has been cut off, Joel . The day of the Lord will not come till there be a great falling away and that man of sin be revealed .We are in that time Jesus spoke of that great Abomination of Desolation STANDING IN THE HOLY PLACES ( the Churches ) I am the LIGHT OF THE WORLD BUT THE NIGHT COMES WHEN NO MAN CAN WORK , The days are coming when you will desire to see one of the days of the SON OF MAN but you will NOT see them , The Bridegroom will be taken away then shall you fast in those days . 6 million Jews died in Hitlers death camps simply b/c we are in this spritual darkness the great abomination of desolation is upon US, All the Churches are desolate even the big mega Churches are in love with the Almighty Dollar . Their Vision is football and sports . That man of sin is seen in all of US Christians. Micah 5 Says he will give them up ( the early Church ) till the woman is in Birth pains which is the world that is gonna have a baby Christ ,That woman in rev 12 is Us sinners. The Child is the H.G. THAT CHILD OF PROMISE , Then the kingdom comes , Unless ya receive the kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in . The Prophet Jeremiah saw ALL men in travail and birth pains meaning the whole world is gona be bornagain. If i be lifted up i will draw ALL men unto me. Plz read Joel if ya wanna know what happened to the early Church . Thank you Jesus for the seed of the sower. which is the seed of the bridegroom his voice the Living word.

    Conceptualizing the past, with the present, unto the future, is how His word works! Knowing the past is the path behind, while we look forward, looking for a new and better way!

    A nation, a people who are chosen and yet deny him, even with evidence of a past full of His mercy, while he continues judging separating the sheep from the goats, keeping the hope alive for the next generation!

    Do you recognize this judgment that comes from above, do you understand still what He is done for you? What does He mean when He says " will He find faith on the earth when He returns?"

    A People who have not learned from the sin of the past, will repeat it in the future. Many there be who still plead with Him, asking for forgiveness .

    Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven."

    This is the resurrection and the life, for all mankind, for the world!
  • Jack Scarberry - In Reply - 4 years ago
    It's not that easy to discern who Jesus was from how the Word is phrased, or his limited powers. Some say Jesus was God in flesh, others cast doubt. Absolute hogwash. There was nobody in history like Jesus.

    Like in Rev 21 & 22 who exactly is "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely." It seems like different characters say that phrase, but I'm sure thy are one.

    I would like a definitive answer about Christ's powers on earth but there are none new to be had, only faith. Jesus was a good boy doing his father's will. When I meet up with the editors of the Bible, I will punch each one of them error riddled gaffers square in the nose. They had a great deal of responsibility, it was all you had to do, and they screwed it up.
  • Chris - In Reply on Psalms 23 - 4 years ago
    Hello Ella. The old adage: "Repetition is the mother of learning" is useful here. But to be specific, Repetition can be very much the tool for memorization.

    I don't know whether you have specific verses that you want to memorize, or you are reading through the Bible & want to pick up on certain verses that speak to you & can be useful to you or others later. In either case, you would want to with God's Help (i.e. with prayer) commit that verse to your mind & heart & continue to repeat it. Then through the day & into the succeeding days continue to recall that verse, with its reference, so it becomes established in your heart. Some people have memorized whole chapters, even Bible books, but start off in a small way first & concentrate on some meaningful verses to you, or what your Pastor/Elder has preached about. The Word of God is a living Word, i.e. the Scriptures we hold in our hands are "God-breathed", or inspired & energized by God for our instruction & observance ( 2 Timothy 3:16), so you can rest assured that God's Spirit will enable you to not only memorize the Scriptures but to apply them to your life. May the Lord bless you in your study & plan for Scripture memorization.
