Bible Discussion Replies PAGE 1409

Brother Jesse,

I found material on Raul Ruiz on the web,

I listened to his testimony, Great testimony. I will research more on his Dad.

Thanks.

That's awesome....

God is good to me

The bible says that God said "Haven't I said that ye are gods?" the key is little "g". But we do not and will not become God. Jesus said that bigger and better things than he we will do, but still does not make us God.

OSEAS,

There is no such thing as the battle of Armageddon. Armageddon is a gathering place prior to Christs return, where Gog sees Christ standing on Mount Olives, and comes down to get slaughtered in Israel, in the Kidron Valley. The name of the battle is couched in Revelation 16:14. Its "The battle of that great day of God Almighty". Why does everyone make their own story up, and not follow the Word of God?

Some food for thought Almighty God is the also the God of freedom of will or choice but also the God of all order. That being said all of His Created works whether Spiritual beings ie. angels good or bad because all angels are messengers of light or darkness. God being all powerful and perfect as was original creation, Genesis !:1 all creation was perfect. In Genesis 1:2 in the original text the word was is became which changes a lot of things, also agrees with The scripture God is Light and in God is no Darkness at all. Starting in Genisis 1:3 God starts putting back together that which The adversary screwed up it was a cataclysmic event which wiped out the original creation. How much time is involved between Gen.1:1and Gen. 1:2 no one knows but guaranteed it did't happen over night also, people want to get into how old earth is, no man knows but God put it simple In The Beginning Can't beat that. I'll stick with scripture in the God given original text. Again keep something in mind The true God never messes with freedom of will Good Example Adam and Eve. Just food for thought. God Bless

Amen! Oseas.

God bless.

If you Google "Old Earth Theory" (although I do not recommend that),

The whole theory has a large following; lots of books written.

My opinion is that it is HERESY.

How do I know that? One of The Holy Spirit's ministry is, TEACHER. He said: "In Beginning."

I looked through my ancient, to sorta new Bible collection; they all say: IN THE BEGINNING.

The word THE was added to help readers read Genesis 1:1 better. I don't know if it was canonized or was added in later editions.

Guys, if the Holy Spirit says, In Beginning. It means that GOD CREATED TIME, first.

Archaeological finds, carbon dating, DNA analysis, proves the earths age is billions years old. Not 6000 years old. Something big hit the earth and killed everything, except the "conies" which survived the event. Their name is in the Bible. Their carbon date shows by living underground, their date is different.

Scientists have discovered with probes that all the planets had water/ice at one time. But the water evaporated because of heat. All except earth. Only earth has gravity and an ozone that protects us from rays. Very interesting.

The goal of all sciences is to explain 4 Things: Time, Force, Action, Matter (in that order). No one has ever gotten a Nobel Prize for TIME.

They will not solve it until they accept the reality of a Supreme CREATOR.

If you carefully read and contemplate; ask the Holy Spirit to TEACH you, you will see that in Genesis 1:1-2 all those 4 questions are explained.

If you slowly read Romans 1 you will understand as I did, that God made all that we see and know; and comprehend, was put here for us to accept the reality that Big Bang did not do all of this.

THE GODHEAD CREATED IT. Father purposed it, The Word spoke it, the Holy Spirit performed it.

They created everything we see, have learned and know. Beginning with TIME.

Somebody write that book, get rich and give it to the poor. Copy paste this as much as you want.

Mishael

Define Luke 9-62

Jesus is the Bible...the Word of God.

John 1

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2 The same was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

If you cannot accept who Jesus is, then you are in the darkness.

Read John chapter 3. Ask Jesus to come into your heart.

Poor people gamble because they don't think that they have enough money and they want more , a poor Christian should not gamble , they should trust that God will show them a way to get through their financial problems , rich people gamble because they want even more money ,either way is not good ,Matthew ch13 ,Mark ch10 , Luke ch16 , I used to love playing roulette when I was young , I thought I was very clever because I had a system and more often than not it worked , that was the worst thing that could have happened to me , winning makes you think you will win again , I stopped before I lost and vowed never to go again , I loved roulette , I have to be strong because I know I would still like to play it , in the same way I would still like a cigarette , both things are bad for me , you must trust in God that he will help you find a way out of your difficulties , gambling to me shows a lack of faith in God's provision and care for you , that's just my opinion .

God bless you and yours. Ill understand things like this, if people have sort out thing too help them in the life. Its open for us too just use it. Of course we can belive in Him! But is it necessarily to do that? For things He already have done. We are free, we are living in the world, and have many needs! If we take a vaccine from childhood we are saved from differens diseases anyway. If we dont take the vaccsin and we die. What need, do anyone have of that? Paul wright in Phillipians evan if he have a home longing, he wrote 1.24. Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you. Amen

Biblical inerray. belief that scripture is literal sets up idol worship.

The bible itself becomes a thing, absolute. A thing. just as a statue of a saint or any other idol.if yo believe in biblical inerrancy, you are an idol worshipper.

lastly, act only with altrustic love.

Thank you once again for your comments, brother Leon. I generally understand & agree with your comments, but if I could direct you to what you wrote: "Following his fall, the adversary was relegated to the position of tempter. Just as he tempted Christ, he was only allowed in the garden to tempt Eve, who was then used to test Adam's loyalty to God."

I believe we have a problem here: Satan's fall is alluded to in Isaiah 14:12-15 & Ezekiel 28:12-19. And then we have Job 1:6,7. So the questions that arise are: at what point was Satan cast down to the Earth & were there two castings down? One, which caused Genesis 1:2 & another that brought on Genesis 3:1-15? For, if the first beautiful Earth was corrupted by reason of Satan's involvement, then where did he go between the first & second creations of Earth, since he lost his position in Heaven, no doubt?

Does Satan's "walking to & fro in the Earth & walking up & down in it" apply to the second creation of Earth, where we find him all over the Earth, including Eden, & then again some years later during the lifetime of Job? If that's the case, then he being wholly evil, walking all over this globe, causing mankind's fall & causing Job his ultimate test, surely must indicate that such evil must breed evil, not only to those tested but to all of 'groaning' creation so affected?

Therefore, looking at the Scriptures given by the Lord for us to work with, to have a two-Earth belief (once unformed & then reformed), becomes very difficult to acquiesce to, for Satan's position in either world, must mean a corruption of that world; i.e. if Satan was the reason for the first deformation, the reformation of the second must be likewise affected. Or, if God cleaned up the first then why permit Satan to be around to also affect the second? To be around again, just to test mankind's fidelity to Him, seems a weak reason in light of the extent of damage that was in Satan's power. The Lord be with you.

Brother Spencer,

That is an interesting thought indeed from Chuck Missler. Many years ago, I used to listen to him every morning on my way to work. Right after him, I would listen to Greg Laurie. And then on the way home I would listen to Raul Ruiz. He used to crack me up with his accent, especially when he said the Jews, he would say the juice!

I also have a book by Raul Ruiz titled "Fury to Freedom." It's a great read and testimony how the Lord saved him. I cried like a baby when I got to the part of the book where his dad received Christ.

Anyways, if you get a chance to read that book, it is very powerful and well worth the read!

JESSE AND EARL

Armageddon is a contraction of three words: Air + Magog + Eddon(Eddon means red)

The battle of Armageddon is to happen now BEFORE CHRIST's COMING,against three unclean spirits like frogs: Rev. 16:v.13-16:

13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the MOUTH of the Dragon(Rev.13:v.11), and out of the MOUTH of the Beast, and out of the MOUTH of the false prophet.

14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great Day of God Almighty. - the LORD's Day -

16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

And JESUS said: verse 15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

We, the GOD's people, we are in heavenly places in Christ JESUS- Ephesians 1:v.3 onwards, however, Satan and his messengers are also in this same heavenly environment as we are-Eph.6:v.12 and 2 Cor.11:v.13-15 among other references.

That said, Armageddon means:

1 - The battle is in heavenly places in Christ JESUS -the battle is in "Air"- heaven-

2 - The battle is against Magog:the battle is -will be -against all the Gentile nations ruled by satanic religions,more specificaly against the Catholicism ruled by the Beast of sea-the Papacy-Rev.13:5

3 - The battle is against Eddon(red): the battle is -will be- against the Dragon, Satan, a former Cherub, son of perdition, he will manifest himself as a lamb, a falsed lamb, a false and ruthless and kabbalistic messiah of the Jews, who will rule and guide Israel in near future-Rev.13:v.11-18 combined with 2Thes.2:1-17.



Actually,three unclean spirits like frogs;like frogs?Why?There will not be space to comment this kind of spirits of demons but I will give a clue for meditation:frogs are amphibians vertebrate animals that live in waters and dry land.

Waters-Rev.17:v.15

Dry land-Israel

FIRSTBORN HEBREWS 12:23

Numbers 3:13 Because all the firstborn are mine; for on the day that I smote all the firstborn of Egypt I hallowed unto me all the firstborn in Israel, both man and beast: mine shall they be: I am the Lord.

Hebrews 12:23 To the general assembly and church of the FIRSTBORN ....

Exodus 22:29 Thou shall not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons thou shall give unto me.

We are the tithe unto God.

If you want thoughts, not Gospel? My thoughts are Mistry Babylon is the USA-Just my opinion. Yours is worth as much as mine.

S SPENCER

JESUS had a great discussion with the Jews about Him himself. JESUS said to them: John 5:v. 37 to 47

37 The Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard His voice AT ANY TIME, nor seen His shape.

38 And ye have not His Word abiding in you: for whom He hath sent, him ye believe not.

39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which TESTIFY of me.

40 And ye will not come to me, that ye MIGHT HAVE LIFE.

41 I receive not honour from MEN.

42 But I know you, that YE HAVE NOT THE LOVE OF GOD IN YOU.

43 I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not ( John 1:v.11): if another (AN IMPOSTER, A FALSE MESSIAH) shall come in his own name, HIM YE WILL RECEIVE.

44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another(human honours), and seek not the honour that cometh from GOD only?

45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.

46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me; for he wrote of me.

47 But if ye believe not his writings,how shall ye believe my words?

Yeah, if ANOTHER (AN IMPOSTER, A FALSE MESSIAH)shall come in his own name,HIM THE JEWS WILL RECEIVE(this prophecy of the LORD will fulfill LITERALLY in near future)even him whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders-2Thes.2:v.9.Verses 10to12 reveal:

10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish;because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong DELUSION, that they SHOULD BELIEVE A LIE:- believe in the false messiah-believe in the DRAGON(Rev.13:v.11-18);Who will oppose and exalt himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God will sit in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

That they all might be DAMNED who believed not the truth(believed not in JESUS

Brother Leon, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

I BELIEVE the Spirit is revealing hidden truths to you. I will show you one of those hidden truths He has revealed to me.

The answer to every question is hidden somewhere in God's word.

Question? Who are the fowls of the air?

The answer is found in the parable of the sower.

Luke 8:5 A sower (Christ) went out to sow his SEED (word or God): and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the FOWLS OF THE AIR devoured it.

This parable is one of the few Jesus explained.

Luke 8:12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the DEVIL...

The FOWLS OF THE AIR are the DEVIL.

The fowls of the air (Satan) represent scavengers (vultures) and birds of prey (eagles). They (Satan) DEVOUR flesh and CONSUME dead flesh. Flesh and blood CANNOT inherit the Kingdom of God.

1 Timothy 1:20 Of whom Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto SATAN (fowls of the air), that they learn not to blaspheme.

1 Corinthians 5:5 To DELIVER such an one unto SATAN for the DESTRUCTION of the flesh, that the spirit may be save in the day of the Lord Jesus.

Isaiah 65:25 ....and DUST (flesh) shall be the serpent's (Satan) meat .....

Revelation 19:17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the FOWLS that fly in the midst of heaven (represents MAN, where God dwells), Come and gather yourselves together unto the (marriage) supper of the great God.

This is happening NOW. Our flesh is being DESTROYED so we can be married (BECOME ONE) to Christ at the death of this body.

Revelation 19:18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings (we are the kings of THE KING) .....

Revelation 19:21 And the remnant (sons of God) were slain (killed, destroyed) with the sword (TRUTH OF THE WORD) of him that sat upon the horse, which sword (TRUTH) proceeds out of his mouth: and an all the FOWLS were filled with their (the remnants) flesh.

Hi, Teresa!

I assume that you are referring to Ephesians 5:27: "That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish."

The phrase "not having spot or wrinkle" equals to the other phrase "without blemish." These blemishes, such as spots or wrinkles, refer to sin or secret faults.

I like to use the analogy of a white shirt. In order for the white to be perfect, there can be no stains, no spots, no wrinkles. If there is ANY kind of blemish, the shirt is no longer perfect.

God's desire for the church is to be spotless and wrinkle-less of sin!

I think Nicodemus was probably with the crowd on Golgotha when Jesus was crucified. I think he knew that this was all scripture and prophesy being fulfilled. On that day over 100 prophesies were completed.

Google, Charts of fulfilled prophesies by Jesus.

There are charts on Old Testament, and New Testament Prophesies.

It is amazing!!!! One person did all that with His life. And yet people can still deny Him.

Pray against Spiritual Blindness and Deafness. For ears to be open to hear the truth; for eyes to see the words on the pages of the Bible. For understanding.

LEON DAVIS ,

from whom you learned that "the word dog in Deuteronomy 23:v.18 is a reference to a male prostitute. One does not know the source of the money he or she receives in the winnings from gambling, some of which could be "dirty money" (e.g., gotten from white collar crime, theft, drug sales, the sale of pornographic literature)?

See, the Word is GOD. GOD did not refer to the things you said above by your interpretation of GOD's Word regardings to the "dog"; no, absolutely, the Word does not refer to those things you have said.

That said, who is he to whom the Word of God refers to as DOG? - GOD answers us by His Word- Isaiah 56:v.10-12:

10 His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb DOGS, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.

11 Yea, they are greedy DOGS which can never have enough, and they ARE SHEPHERDS that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.

12 Come ye, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink (false doctrines); and to morrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.

Paul Apostle warned: Philippians 3:v.2 - Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the circuncision.

And JESUS left very very clear, saying: Revelation 22:v.15-16

15 For without are DOGS, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

Dear LEON DAVIS, what you wrote above has nothing to do with the Word of GOD. Your interpretation of the Word of GOD- Deuteronomy 23:v.18- is a mere human conception of you, something from your imagination, or even conjectures, opinions, or guessings.

Be careful with the Word of GOD. The Word is GOD, understand?

Yes Jesse,

I heard a teaching from Chuck Missler on it a few years ago! He explained it similar.

He also said he believed it to be a double fulfillment of prophecy.

In John 5:43. Jesus says I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. Also speaking of the Antichrist.

Interesting.

I think these doubts about the vaccines need to be voiced to the State Representatives, and also to the Governor's Office.

This is how street riots were born. We have to go through the channels to lodge complaints. The phone numbers and addresses are listed on Google. The issues are counted and tracked.

I worked in government once.

It's easy to do. Someone logs the complaints by subject and the information is passed to the correct desk, or to the Governors office.

We can obtain permission to have peaceful sign displaying assemblies. Let the local news channel know the date and place. No one else.

Governor's want to be re-elected (perhaps), and the issues and concerns will be addressed.

I don't know what the protocol is on Government mandate versus private Business mandates that want all employees to be card carrying (vaccinated) employees or job applicants?

Is this by State only, or is this a mandate by Government or Business? Anybody know?

I do think this is a very serious issue and should not infringe on citizen rights.

Given all of the (potentially) swine flu infected meat that Biden intends to allow imported INTO this country from China (again)___and, since he intends to Rescind all protective restrictions that the Trump Presidency enacted. I highly recommend everyone Google and read those stories about businesses caught smuggling meat into our borders.

Get flu shots every year :/

We may have to return to olden times, where we buy our own animals, vaccinate them, feed them good and take them to be slaughtered. Is it too late, I wonder? Part of the Leviticus 26 curses is that foreigners will invade our shores. China owns one million+Acres already. Troubling...

Pray over every mouthful of food, every meal.

"Lord bless and sanctify this food, clean and useful to consume. We thank you for our daily bread. Amen"

Lisa,

I agree with you. The COVID vaccine should be an individual choice, not something the government forces a person to get. I'm not sure what your views on abortion are but I am very pro-life. What really irks me is that these nasty politicians we have in office right now who are trying to force the vaccine on people, they are the same ones who are also pro-abortion. They use the excuse that it is the woman's right to choose because it's her body. It doesn't matter to them that there is also an innocent living body inside them. Well, what about those who choose not to get the vaccine? It's their body, right! Those crooked politicians are some very sick and broken people who need prayer badly. One day they will have to give an account for all the innocent lives lost!

Hi Mike! I know a couple of people who need to read your post. Hope you don't mind if I send that to them?

I've never been a gambler and I'm not sure how to show them that it's not helping their walk to God.

Larry,

This prophetic story continues and eventually comes full circle:

( Isaiah 14:2) And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and they shall rule over their oppressors.

What group of people did the house of Israel (Ephraim & Manasseh) take as their captives, whose captives they once were for four hundred thirty years? ( Exodus 12:41) Who are the descendants of Egypt that were held slaves when England & America gained prominence?

"A good man leaves an inheritance to his children". Does this refer to posessions?
