Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.

Genesis 1:26

Genesis 1:27

James 3.:9

We are made in the image of God.

Thank you sir for the reply. I think ever Christian goes through feelings of inadequacy because not only do we feel Gods love through Jesus sometimes it can be overwhelming to think how we can love him equally. And the answer to that is what you said it's in everything we see in creation in of its own. But even in that though we can't understand the mind of our God. His ways our higher than ours but if it's something we can cling on to is his promise of prosperity, sustainability, and Love but also always being there. I had a horrible day but knowing there's brothers and sisters always praying for the brethren brings me more joy in my heart. I ask how do I love you more Lord ? How do I love others ? Two of the most complicated questions but if we keep seeking we will find all the answers. Living this life is hard but it's a choice I made two years ago and I've understood he has saved me for a reason. I just have to trust him more.

Genesis 1:26

We are formed in the image.

Only God Can JUDGE me.....Since you are so well versed in Scripture then you should know what happens to those who judge others;) They will hate me just as they hated Jesus....if people would have understood what Jesus was telling them they would not have crucified him. Blasphemy against Jesus is forgivable but Blasphemy of the HOLY SPIRIT is not forgivable...Be Humble before the LORD.

You made a wise comment about Lucifer in the Garden of Eden ( Isaiah 14:v.12-15) and according Ez.28:12 to 17.

Yes, you are right, the serpent description is a figure of speech for how sly he operates. I agree. You are correct.

Yes, Eve and Adam, or the Man and the Woman, both were in the garden of Eden. Surely, as you said, "Would Eve be so stupid to converse with a hideous beast or snake, not buying it." In fact was a Man, a Cherub, by analogy, a Man like the two angels which GOD sent to Sodoma and Gomorrah, never, but never, like a snake.

God bless

Greetings in Christ JESUS,

Chris, you brought a biblical deep matter, it is not easy for us to speak about "Satan as an angel"in the mysterious times in the Garden of Eden and with the presence of Adam and Eve or the man and the woman,by the way, there was an Eternity in Eden before this current gap of 7 thousand years or 7 millenniums of this current world of Devil, in part already fulfilled,whose world the crafty Satan,or artful Devil,offered to JESUS in the temptation- Luke 4:v.5 to 8.Check it.

What you said is very very interesting, mainly about "war between Jesus and Satan for the glory?". When JESUS was tempted, the Devil knew that JESUS was the heir of GOD, Satan knew that HIS CURRENT DEVIL'S WORLD would be conquer by JESUS and His army or His people- Revelation 11:v.15 to 18 and chapter 12. In fact, Satan tryed to anticipate and deliver his kingdom to JESUS under his satanic condition, but JESUS rejected the Devil's offer, because JESUS had a strategy in His War against Satan. What did JESUS do?

He called the Devil to be near Him as one of the 12 apostles through the person of Jude Scariots. JESUS needed a betrayer among the 12 apostles. JESUS was and is Omniscient, JESUS knew that Judas was a devil, a demon- John 6:v.70- and JESUS ordened to give the bag of money to Jude-the demon-, he was a thief and did steal the money that was in the bag.

From this point ahead, all know what happened in the life of JESUS having Satan at his side, and to defeat him on the cross. God has his ways in this War against Satan, now remains the battle against the three unclean spirits like frogs that come out of the MOUTH of a satanic trinity in this current time, even from now on: Revelation 16:v.13 to 16.

Be careful and get ready because there will be a great spiritual battle day after day, from now on or in days to come.

Brother S Spencer, may CHRIST IN US, grace us with HIS wisdom and His understanding.

Job 26:13 By His SPIRIT he hath garnished the heavens, His hand hath FORMED the crooked serpent.

Genesis 2:7 And the Lord God FORMED man of the dust of the ground....

Both the crooked serpent and man were FORMED, not created. You are not created in God's image until you are BORN AGAIN by SPIRIT. Before that you are in Satan's image (dust, flesh).

Psalms 104:39 Thou sendest forth thy spirit and they are created: and thou RENEWEST the face of the earth.

You said: He is described AS IF (future tense)

I BELIEVE you are right.

I BELIEVE this is a PROPHESY of what we have been CREATED for; but until we depart this flesh iniquity is still found in us.

Food for thought, the Spirit reveals.

I incourage you to read Rev. 11:15-18.

The 7th angel. And shortly after that,

Well, 7 means complete.

But I could use more knowledge about it. I'm studying this currently.

Brother Earl,

I did it again!! maybe I should spell it.

The perfection is described in verses twelve through fourteen.

Gb.

Hi Marcus

Can't understand your question,

Can you edit it?

God bless.

You all need to watch Kat Kerr talk about the beginning, etc....

She has been going back and forth to heaven since childhood and God showed her His timeline of generations from the beginning. She is the go to Revelator (As God Calls Her). She is anointed to reveal heaven to us all! God led me right to her when I prayed specifically for Him to lead me to people who have been to heaven. Amazing revelations! Do it! You will never be the same guaranteed! Remember, God see's us as His children not His adults.

Brother Earl,

Correction. I meant to say His perfection is described in verses 12 through 14.

God bless, and goodnight.

native america and others use fire by old fashion survival for example stones or friction of stick. Adam and eve is very very very smart to figure out how to make fire as similar as native america culture.

Hi Brother Earl.

I agree, I don't think Lucifer was created perfect as far as "immune from Iniquity."

I believe his perfection is better described in verses 12 through 14.

He is described as if he's #1 in rank, or Complete for what he was created for.

""Thou sealest up the sum""

He also was ( THE ANOINTED CHERUB )

Ezekiel 28:12-13. Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; THOU SEALEST UP THE SUM, full of wisdom, and PERFECT IN BEAUTY.

Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; EVERY PRECIOUS STONE WAS THY COVERING, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: THE WORKMANSHIP OF THY TABRETS AND OF THY PIPES WAS PREPARED IN THEE IN THE DAY THAT THOU WAST CREATED.

THOU ART THE ANOINTED CHERUB THAT COVERED; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.

THOU WAST PERFECT IN THY WAYS FROM THE DAY THAT THOU WAST CREATED, till iniquity was found in thee.

God bless.

Brother S Spencer, in your studies, would you please, find the Hebrew word that has been translated to the word Lucifer and see how it is defined in other scriptures. Man's belief that Lucifer was perfect contradicts other scriptures. If this is the only place that word is translated Lucifer? If it has another meaning, then maybe Lucifer was not perfect.

Job 26:13 By his SPIRIT he hath garnished the heavens, his hand hath FORMED (MADE) the crooked serpent.

Isaiah 27:1 In that day (TODAY) the LORD with sore and great and strong sword (THE WORD) shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and shall SLAY (kill by the word of God) the dragon that is in the sea (the sea represents us, Revelation 17:15). (We die daily by the word of God).

1 John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil (flesh); for the devil (flesh) committeth sin from the BEGINNING (not perfect and fell). For this purpose the Son of God was manifest, that he (SPIRIT) might destroy the works of the devil (FLESH).

From the (BEGINNING); Adam and all of us were FORMED (MADE) FLESH out of dust.

1 Corinthians 2:6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect (mature): yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the PRINCES OF THIS WORLD, that come to nought:

Ephesians 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world (flesh), according to the PRINCE of the Power of the Air (flesh), the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience (flesh).

Mark 8:33 ....he rebuked Peter, saying, get thee behind me, Satan....

Peter was (flesh) not yet BORN AGAIN of the SPIRIT.

Matthew 4:1 Then Jesus was led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil (flesh).

Jesus was already BORN OF SPIRIT so the devil (flesh) had no power over him.

1 Corinthians 15:46 Howbeit that which was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural (flesh); and afterwards that which is spiritual.

Food for thought; the Spirit reveals.

Hello Arnold B , nice to meet you and thank you for your post , I too struggle with love , it isn't something that comes easy to me and I know that I do not love God or Jesus enough , you are right that we have to know how to love ourselves , if we don't know how to love ourselves how can we love some one else and if we don't know how to love other people who we can see ,how can we love God who we can't see , the thing that is helping me to learn is to see God everywhere , He is everywhere , He is in all of His gorgeous creation , if you in any way appreciate nature then you are appreciating God , He is in every act of kindness , every selfless act ,even the little ones , He is in every genuine smile , He is all over , where ever there is beauty or kindness He is there ,and if you can't see any kindness then it's up to you to bring it , He will use you to help others ,Jesus is our perfect example , it's a bit of a clich but to think to yourself "what would Jesus do ? " isn't a bad idea . He won't lead you down the wrong path .

In Joel chapter 3 verse 4, the Lord asked, what do you have against me, Tyre and Sidon and you cities of Philistia? What did those cities have against the Lord?

Dear Gregory , we are none of us worthy ,Christ is our righteousness , please take the bread and wine , he gave his body for you and me and he wants us to partake of it , Luke ch22 v7-20 .

Prophecy and what we have been taught, just my thoughts.

Studying prophecy, or any subject, scripture, and the Holy Spirit is the interpreter, we are not. Putting trust in man's interpretations without studying with a clear mind, with prayer, and led by the Holy Spirit of truth could be disastrous. If the Holy Spirit does not show us the answer, we may need to grow in other areas of our walk first. Praise God for what we have been shown.

Many teachings on end times reflect Babel, (confusion, a confused mixture of sounds, unintelligible voices, or languages, bewilderment, a confused and deceived assembly), making merchandise of people. Remember "take heed that no man deceive you".

If we have dedicated our belief in the teachings out there before we go to the Bible for the facts, the only things we will see will line up with the conclusion we have already come to, we deceive ourselves. Our ears to the Holy Spirit are closed. Maybe not willingly, we are blinded from the truth by the pride of our knowledge. Imaginations of the heart is a foothold of evil, we inherited from the first Adam and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

A simple question that may show how things we have been taught since Sunday school as a kid may have created a scotoma (blind spot) in our minds. Many probably know this answer but may it open some eyes and ears to other things we may be wrong about and not know we are wrong.

How many of each type of animal went into the Ark? If you first said two each, ( Genesis 7:2-3)

Clean beast by 7, male and female =14, unclean beast by 2, male and female=4, fouls by 7, male and female=14. Man by 4, male and female =8. All two-by-two male and female not two of each. I know this may be meaningless, but what other things much more important have we accepted, that we have been taught as truth, that is not?

If we have been deceived, are we responsible?

May we walk in the Holy Spirit of truth

Greetings in Christ JESUS

Sorry, your information is not accurate. The 3.5 years of the 7 last years have NOT been fulfilled as you claim.

I agree "The prophesy is not in consecutive years", but not in the manner you are interpreting.

Christ JESUS crucified (cut off) had/has nothing to do with the entire week of seven years as you believe.

JOHNATHAN, what prevails is the Word of GOD. The Word is GOD.

Daniel 9:26-27-CJB-Complete Jewish Bible-

v.26 Then, AFTER the sixty-two weeks, Mashiach will be cut off and have nothing. The people of a PRINCE YET TO COME will destroy the city and the sanctuary,...

v.27 He (the EVIL PRINCE) will make A STRONG COVENANT WITH LEADERS FOR ONE WEEK [of years]. ...

Comments:

Do you see? Based in the Word of GOD,A SATANIC AND DESTRUCTIVE PRINCE rules the week 70th BY ENTIRE, i.e.7 YEARS, and makes A STRONG COVENANT WITH LEADERS FOR ONE WEEK [of years]. ...

These terrible EVENTS revealed in the Word of GOD quoted above didn't happen in the time of JESUS, or rather, during His Ministry, He had already been cut off before the week 70th, there is a gap between the week 69 and 70, and JESUS never saw, neither heard to speak of that satanic PRINCE during His Ministry, no destruction occurred by any prince in the time of JESUS, until He be crucified.

For better understanding, WE NEED TO ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS, because in this POINT - Daniel 9:v.26-27-, that is, AFTER the END of the week 69,the prophecy reveals a PRINCE is working in his STRONG COVENANT with LEADERS during the week 70th;This satanic EVENT did not occur in the time of JESUS.

Who is this EVIL prince?

What kind of STRONG COVENANT the satanic PRINCE makes with leaders for one week [of years]?

Who are these leaders?

In this POINT - Daniel 9:v.26-27-,that is, AFTER the END of the week 69,a PRINCE is working in his strong COVENANT with leaders to be applied for ONE WEEK divided in two periods of 3,5 years or 42 months (first half and 2nd half)

Its it

Hello, the word is only a convenience used to describe the event the Bible describes in 1 Thessalonians 4:17 where believers are caught up in the air to meet Jesus. The word Bible isn't in the Bible either. Just because a specific word isn't included in the Bible doesn't mean something isn't from the Bible or isn't true. God bless.

Gregory It has nothing to do with how we feel or are we good enough, biblically we've been made righteous before God we've been redeemed bought back by God we've been sanctified by God our past is Forgotten by God, we've been Given eternal life by God we will be raised at the return of Christ by God, so we will never be good enough to deserve all this just when you blow it or sin ask forgiveness in the name of Jesus Christ and move on. Remember your born again now Child of the most High. Its all in Gods Word, look it up and enjoy. P.S. don't judge yourself, waste of time, just do your best and let God do the Rest. God Bless

Ann People reading into things what God calls in Romans 1 The imaginations of men, once individuals meaning myself also start going down the road I think it means this or that, it begins a slippery slope, in the temptations in luke Satan said to Jesus Christ If Thou Be The Son Of God, Jesus Christ Had no doubt Who He Was Or The Power and Authority He Had but if He would have Questioned or Doubted, we would never been redeemed. Alsp notice His Reply on all points, which should be our reply It Is Written. My perspective.

Sandy,

You will not find the word rapture in the King James Bible. Something to keep in mind is that the KJV Bible is a translation, meaning it was translated from another language. The New Testament was originally written in Greek. English translations came later. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17 is the section that speaks about the rapture of the church, although you will not see the word rapture. The phrase in that section "caught up" comes from the Greek word HARPADZO which means to be caught up, to be snatched, or to be seized. This Greek word is referring to the rapture. The Latin word is RAPTUS which is where we get our English word rapture from. So whether we say "caught up" or we say "rapture," it all means the same thing.

Sandy You will not find the word rapture, but in 2 thessalonians 2:1 you will read about our gathering together unto Him, which is explained in detail in 1 corinthians 15:50-54. This is when Chist comes back for His Body the Church of God and as it says in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, comfort each other with these words. it will happen so fast unbelievers won't know what just occurred. What a fantastic event to look forward to, the Hope of Christ return for us. God Bless

Yes Chris better known as Lucifer and very high position of power and authority also He walked in the Garden of God Eden. Something else to keep in mind he was not this hideous beast, also the serpent description is a figure of speech for how sly he operates. Would Eve be so stupid to converse with a hideous beast or snake, not buying it. look at Ezekiel 28:12-17 very descriptive of satan, king of tyrus is figure of speech, noticed perfect until iniquity was found in thee.

God is soo good we need this today

First time here. Thank you so much for providing this message. I have been a christian for a little over two years and have struggled and sometimes the days are to hard for me to even bare. But I know the word says he will gives his angels charge over thee to keep thee in thine ways. I've asked and continually try to ask how do I love more. How do I love Jesus more but also how can I be obedient. I believe you gave me this answer as it is shown clearly in scripture. I've been dealing a lot with knowing how to love myself but more importantly how to love more and more. I know the Lord is patient and he chastises those who he loves. Please pray for me. I know he has saved me for a purpose and everything that I've dealt with is going to lead me to more patience and trust it surely isn't easy at least all of this. Requires a lot of obedience and a lot of love and a lot of prayer.

Hahaha , I have to go , my rides here .
