    Yes ! We can follow this light from Genesis to Revelation .
  • Earl Bowman - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    Sister Sacha, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

    The Answer is:

    The FIRST LIGHT created was JESUS.

    Revelation 3:14 Jesus... the BEGINNING of creation.

    John 8:12 ....I am the light of the world ....

    Are we supposed to evangelise, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

    One of the HARDEST TRUTHS to understand is that when you are BORN AGAIN by the word of God you ALSO DIED (the first death, which is not literal death) by the word of God.

    The verse being quoted below is not LITERAL; it has to be spiritually discerned:

    Revelation 13:10 He that (evangelises and) leadeth (others) into captivity will go into captivity: he that (evangelises and) killeth with the sword (the word of God) must be killed with the sword (the word of God). Here is the patience and faith of the saints.

    1 Peter 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, By THE WORD OF GOD, which liveth and abideth forever.

    If you have died (by the sword or word of God) in Christ you now live in Christ (the word); then:

    Philippians 2:13 It is God that worketh in you BOTH TO WILL and TO DO of his good pleasure.

    REST IN THE LORD; whatever he wants you to do, YOU WILL DO through HIS POWER and FOREKNOWLEDGE.

    Ezekiel 36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and CAUSE YOU TO WALK IN MY STATUTES, and ye shall keep my judgements and DO THEM.

    Colossians 1:27 ...This mystery....CHRIST IN YOU ....
  • Maryfran53223 on Psalms 27 - 4 years ago
    Psalms 27 has been one of my favorite scriptures for years. I uses it as a shield of protection in my home. A bible is always opened to it 24/7. God has been my salvation and strength through the death of my husband (at 25), both my parents, 3 brothers, 2 sisters, 2 sons and 2 grandsons. Verse 13 "I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living and 14 "Wait on the LORD; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart; wait, I say, on the LORD" Whatever you are going through wait on the LORD this Psalms will get you through it. Thank God for loving us, never leaving nor forsaking us. Amen

    Rick,

    We are in the tail end of the 5th trumpet ( Revelation 9:1-11).

    3 things will happen before the 6th trumpet ( Revelation 9:13-21)

    *We haven't yet reached Revelation 6:13-14 scroll, nuclear facility strike

    *We are promised Elijah ( Malachi 4:5) before the day of the Lord

    *Leading into the day of the Lord Rev 6:12 strike

    We are in the "little season" (5th seal-7th trumpet) as explained to the OT saints.

    I sense we have but a short time left till 'Jesus thief' comes to deliver our judgment.

    Sacha,

    I win fair amounts of bank betting pro sports, weekly. The games are all rigged by special numbers and Gematria decodes and exposes. You would panic if you knew what they do to keep the house on top. Games are picked seasons in advance. If you want a golfer to sink an 80 ft putt, use magnets.

    TO ALL

    Gen.1:2-This Scriptures were revealed to Moses around 2.500 years after Adam, beteween 2nd and 3rd Day.

    Genesis 1:v.2 And the earth was without form,...

    See, GOD was not speaking of the geometric form of the Planet Earth to Moses, which He "hangeth upon nothing"- Job 26:v.7-, no, absolutely, it because the geometric form of the Planet Earth around 6.000 years ago was the same it is today, of course. NOTE: To say the Planet Earth was without geometric form based in Genesis 1:v. 2 is ridiculous.

    By the way, GOD had planted a wonderful Garden in Eden were a multitude was ruled by a powerful Cherub- Ezekiel 28:v.13-15 and Isaiah 14:v.12-12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!...

    After the rebellion, the inhabitants of Eden, ruler by the fallen Cherub, were transformed into dust, dust of the earth, except the spirit, evidently ( Jude 1:v.6), and the earth did get consequently formless and empty, spiritually, everything was without form but not physically.

    Please, re-study your LITERAL conceptions, many of them ridiculous, and cause a lot of mochery. The letter kills.

    To the only Wise GOD our Saviour, be Glory and Majesty, Dominion and Power, both now and ever. Amen.





    and void;

    and darkness was upon the face of the deep.

    And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

    3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

    4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

    5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night.

    And the evening and the morning were the first day.
  • Dianne - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    Chris you didn't misunderstand me if in the Epistle of 1st John chapter 1:5 it says God is Light and in God is no Darkness at all than the God and father of our lord Jesus Christ could not have been responsible for the desolation of the original Heaven and earth. Also in the Gospel of John 4:24 it says God is spirit you cant see taste touch or smell spirit but you can observe the manifestation of the power. That's why in Genesis 1:3 God started reorganizing that which was ruined. Through out all time from Genesis to revelation God and mans arch enemy the adversary serpent devil, has endevoured to wreak havoc on Gods Creation because His Goal is to be Like the most High God and be worshipped by man whether knowingly or unknowingly. Thank God, that God was loving enough to wait until the appointed time to send His Son to deliver us from the darkness of this world. To me the Word of God has no contradictions, because God is not a man that He should lie. Not endeavoring to justify anything just things to consider. Over and out
  • Rick - 4 years ago
    Is this the 6th Trump? Satan is come to tell people to come fly away with him, God says no, he'll tear them away from him.That's the antichrist.

    I'm waiting for the 7th trump.

    OSEAS,

    I'm spining, hoping for a soft landing. My posts are challenging, but you are re-writing my settled sanity.

    I'm going to start asking you one question per day. You kindly answer in 6 sentences or less. Stay on topic.

    Here we go:

    #1 What do you know about the time, place, duration of ( Malachi 4:5-6)?

    5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:

    6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
  • Sacha - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    Hi Chris , please don't think I'm trying to be contentious , I promise I'm not , please consider , God created light before he created the sun and moon and stars ,so.....what was that light ? Where did it come from ? Just a thought , it's a rhetorical question so I don't expect an answer .
  • Sacha - In Reply - 4 years ago
    David , I appeal to you as my brother in Christ , understand " a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump " Much love to you in Christ our saviour .
  • Sacha - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Marilyn , you do know that this is a Bible site yes ? If not , I suggest you read the New testament and pay particular attention to Jesus attitude and relationship towards money , his attitude towards it should also be ours if we are trying to be as much like him as we possibly can .
  • Walter Bratton on Obadiah 1 - 4 years ago
    If Gog/thebeast(of Revelation), anti-christ did all that God asked of him, by destroying Israel/Babylon, then what turned God against hisprized army? Theanswer is "at thesame time" by doing God's will, thebeastthinks an "evil thought".

    Ezekiel 38:10-13

    10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that AT THE SAME TIME shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an EVIL THOUGHT:

    11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,

    12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.

    13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?

    Daniel has a connection to vs 13 above:

    ( Daniel 7:24) And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them (anti-christ); and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings, [Sheba, and Dedan, and Tarshish].

    ( Daniel 11:42) He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape. [Saudi Arabia, Egypt & Turkey?]

    The beast attacks 3 of 10 nations gathered unto him, nations dis-loyal thatsurround Israel. He subdues and spoils them by ground warfare (like Judah), not by annihilating them to dust like the house of Israel (Isaiah:13). God is mad because this violence has destroyed earth, knocked it off its axis ( Isaiah 24: 18) the sun, moon are ashamed. anti-christseeks a "Greater Israel Project" of his own, with limited time.
  • Evangelist enquirer - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Chris, this response was a such a comfort to me, thank you! Also, I "leap for joy" inside to hear of your experiences, w (I think of Elizabeth leaping for joy in her womb at the presence of Mary). But your encouragmentt makes me feel that All is well, and to simply rest in Him, and to follow wherever He leads.... That I can do! I will continue to listen and follow. Many Blessings to you Chris..... oh, the fact that you lost your voice due to evangelizing, and that you were arrested and expelled from a country for witnessing...... wow.... that you were willing to suffer for Him....... this was what caused the leap for joy.

    Hi Bob , have you ever heard the saying "banging your head against a brick wall " I tried for a while but gave up quite quickly , people will believe what they want to believe , there are a few of us on here who know what you are talking about but we learned to keep our mouths shut , after all the majority is usually in the right are they not ?
  • Walter Bratton on Obadiah 1 - 4 years ago
    Obadiah 1:10 For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.

    This is the 1st time we hear claim of violence against Esau. In real life, the last time Esau and Jacob saw each was on the trail, and Jacob feared Esau would kill him for stealing the birthright, ( Genesis 33). Any previous mention of Gog/the beast anti-christ were glowing. God used Esau's "sanctified" beast army to defeat Jacob (Babylon); anti-christ's army are described as "even them that rejoice in my highness". Gog/beast are Christian's from a (frozen) desert ( Isaiah 21:1). The times God brags about His "northern army" are many.

    He calls anti-christ's army, "His army", His "sanctified ones" and "His camp".

    ( Isaiah 13: 3-6) I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness.

    4 The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.

    5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.

    6 Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.

    ( Joel 2:11) And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?

    What did Esau do to change God's mind into HATING him? Esau did God's will and destroyed Babylon, so what happened beyond that? What violence does anti-christ do to infuriate God?
  • Chris - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hi Evangelist enquirer. After reading your comment about your concern, I thought to myself, 'Hey, we have an evangelist here'. What you are doing & with the very real sense of being led to share with people, to listen & help them with their needs, & share the Gospel as & when appropriate, is indeed 'being & doing what the Lord has for you at this time'.

    After I was saved back in 1979, I joined with a very evangelistic, mission-minded Fellowship. A group of us used to go out every Saturday evening for open-air preaching & singing (without the use of a megaphone: city ruling), had a major door-to-door outreach around the city, I did personal letter-box tract drop each Friday evening around my neighbourhood, & the Fellowship had sent out some 20 missionaries all over the world. Not all of us were called to go overseas, or even to come out & face the public on a Saturday, but each one had a heart to share Christ in some way at the opportune time to someone. I don't preach in the open-air anymore because I've damaged my voice box through its extended high volume, but as I waited on the Lord, I received the call from Him to overseas service (1988), which I did till arrested & expelled two years later.

    I just share the above to assure you that what you're doing in the Name of the Lord, is also being done according to HIS Will for you at this time. Keep on doing your 'ministry', develop it in the ways the Lord puts on your heart, & always be open to Him to lead you on to share the Word & help people in other ways for the future. The Lord has a wonderful mysterious way of sending His willing children into new areas & also equipping them for the task. So, your work IS evangelistic, even as the early Christians 'gossiped the Gospel' in those formative years of the Church ( Acts 8:1-4), as they shared Christ in whatever way they could. Keep these matters before the Lord in prayer & wait for the answer - He won't fail a yearning responsive heart. Every blessing.
  • Chris - In Reply on Amos 9 - 4 years ago
    Should have written: Luke 16:27-31.
  • Chris - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    I did check the Hebrew on Psalm 22:1, Dianne, where those words "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?" are given. The Hebrew for "(why) have you forsaken Me" is "a-zab-tani" which means to "forsake, be remote, absent". I don't understand your rendering of "kept or spared". I remain perplexed. Thank you again & blessings.
  • Chris - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    Dianne, my Hebrew translation for the word 'Light' in Genesis 1:3 is 'or' or 'o-wr' & not 'phos'. And that word ('o-wr') only refers to physical light. And thank you for the other attached comments.
  • Chris - In Reply on Genesis 1 - 4 years ago
    That's correct Dianne, I did state that in Genesis 1:2 (the Earth's original creation). But you had given the rendering as, "And the earth (became) without form & void". This was in reference to your quote: "In Genesis 1:2 in the original text the word was is became which changes a lot of things". Maybe, I misunderstood you, therefore, my apologies.
