God doesn't demand much, the commandments ought to be a natural thing to want to do. Anything else, like the world we are in now, just causes misery and Satan loves it! SO THERES A REASON GOD EXPECTS THINGS FROM US!
IM UP FOR IT! HOW ABOUT YOU GUYS?
Have you ever thought about God's commandments in the New Testament, the dos and the don'ts? What are they? Why the specific ones and not some other ones? Are they what God likes and dislikes? Are they what God thinks it is right or wrong? Definitely yes. But they are not only that. God through His commandments reveals Himself to us. What God ask us to be like is what He is like Himself. Through the commandments God reveals Himself to His children and asks them to be like Him. It's not easy, it's not easy to be like God in character, not at all. It is actually impossible for humans to be like God. We, God and man, have different natures. But this is why we are given the Holly Spirit for. Our fruit in life is not a result of our own capabilities, it would be impossible for us to do so, but a result of God Spirit's work in us. So the conclusion is that it is a necessity for God's children to be baptized in the Holly Spirit.
Matthew 5:44-48
"But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;......Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.'
God Bless You All.

Apart from the words "your master is eating with the publicans" , is there anywhere in the FOUR (4) Bible gospels (MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE, JOHN) , Where we have a recorded or documented conversation between the twelve (12) disciples and the people around them? Or Do we have any recorded conversation between the twelve (12) disciples and the people around them just within the four (4) Bible gospels (MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE, JOHN)?
This chapter has two sections:
The Israelites arrive at Rephidim near Mt. Horeb. There is no water and the Israelites are very upset with Moses. God directs Moses to strike the rock so that water will flow out of it.
The Amalekites (descendants of Esau's grandson, Amalek) come from Edom to attack the Israelites. The israelites prevail in the battle when Moses' hands are raised and the Amalekites prevail when His arms tire and are lowered.
What impresses me is that God told Moses He would be with Moses at the rock. Was He next to Moses, in front of him, next to the rock , on top of the rock, behind or in front of the rock? How did God appear? Was it in the pillar of fire or some other way? The text does not specify, but it is clear that Moses could see God there.
The people were so upset at the lack of water that they wanted to stone Moses. Moses cries out to God for help. God instructs Moses to strike the rock with his rod. Moses obeys and water gushes out of the rock. The Israelites would not have been able to survive without his water. The water continued to flow so that they had ample water for their stay around Mt. Horeb (Sinai).
The Amalekites came down from Edom to attack the Israelites. It think archeological investigations show that Jabal El Lawz, the tallest mountain in Midian on the east side of the Red sea in the Gulf of Aqaba is most likely Mt. Horeb. This would make sense as the Amalekites would not have needed to travel far and may have felt that their borders were threatened by the Israelite nation.
The Amalekites attacked Israelites, not the other way around. Moses put Joshua in charge of the army while Moses, Aaron, and Aaron's son Hur, went up to a hill with the 'rod of God'. When Moses' arms became too heavy and tired, Aaron pulled up a rock to hold up Moses' to sit upon because and Aaron and Hur supported his hands since they became heavy and tired. They did this until sundown. Joshua won!
Up at the top is the SEARCH BOX. Links for the entire Bible is below that.
It's a really great SEARCH ENGINE, but just for Bible subject.
You can put the word 'Atonement' in the box and hit the arrow >
The engine will fetch every scripture that contains THAT word. You can sort the list; and the engine places the list in book order.
Or you can read either Old Testament verses only
Or, New Testament verses only
With DATES OR HISTORY, you'll have to go on Google. Type it in like this:
"Atonement, history".
By using all the search options, you'll learn some really awesome information. If search doesn't fetch anything try wording it differently.
If it fetches 10,000 verses; try wording it another wAy or just look at only OT or NT verses.
Look around on this whole website to see what's in it. If you get lost, just back out and come back in. Curious is good.
The location of the commentary box is below the search box. Touch a scripture and it will highlight Yellow. Scroll down slowly.
Why would we want them to see (future) pre-Rapture events taking place. Matthew 24 and Luke 21 are happening now. We need to get our heads out of Social Media chat, and look at SIGNS occurring on Earth right this minute.
YouTube: TWO PREACHERS, NELSON WALTERS
Today USA is shown to be in severe drought__in springtime! Half the nation is in severe drought. Go look.
Half our nation is unable to PRODUCE FOOD AS USUAL. That's why grocery prices are escalating higher and higher.
All these SIGNS point to one thing__or to one Person. Jesus is about to return and catch up His Believers.
1 THOUGHT LEADERS are going to form a one world BANK AND WORLD-WIDE form of currency. Oil & Gas Wars have already begun.
2. Their one world RELIGION is GREEN EARTH. Electric cars. GLOBAL WARMING. what's the use of electric Energy if there is NO WATER in the lakes, rivers, etc.
See my point?
People are dabbling with HAARP Weather making devises (readily available for a price). Problem is, the massive floods they cause. Again, no crops grown_no food in the stores.
People/Politicians are "in" on this. They are not "for" the little people that pin their hopes on them; to solve the problems.
I'm not going to say anything else today. Just look at what I have told of. Prove me false or true.
Please please wake up. See the Truth.
Forget buzzwords!
Read God's Word. All of this is in the Bible.

John 6:70
Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
Jesus did not say, "One of you disciples may fall back into sin if he is not careful." No, Jesus said, "One of you is a devil," referring to Judas.
21 No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.
22 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.
23 And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.
24 And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?
25 And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?
26 How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?
27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:
28 Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
Strict observance of laws and ordinances are not as important to the Lord as seeking and serving God with all your heart. In fact, many detailed Jewish laws do not even pertain to the Church, which is seen by Jesus' reference to not putting new wine into old bottles.
"And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence." Colossians 1:18 KJV
"Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:" Colossians 1:24 KJV
"Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house." Colossians 4:15 KJV
"And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." Matthew 16:18 KJV
"As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed." Romans 9:33 KJV
"And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ." 1 Corinthians 10:4 KJV
"And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:" Galatians 1:22 KJV
"For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body." Ephesians 5:23 KJV
"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." Ephesians 5:27 KJV
"For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:" Ephesians 5:29 KJV
"For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones." Ephesians 5:30 KJV
"This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church." Ephesians 5:32 KJV
Recently, as soon as I woke up one morning, the Lord put the word, "loving-kindness' on my heart. He began to instruct me that we may do kind things for someone, i.e., we can open a door for someone, we can pick up something for someone that they've dropped, we can run an errand for someone...but it doesn't necessarily mean that we LOVE them.
Not so with God.
His GREAT GREAT and STUPENDOUS kindness shown us in the face of Jesus Christ is shown to us in LOVE. God gives nothing to us grudgingly. God does not regret any kindness that He shows us. God isn't weary of being kind to us. God doesn't 'do' things for us to be 'polite', or 'civil' - with very little or no TRUE love!
God loves us, and every single act of kindness, every grace, mercy, and blessing that God bestows upon us, is given out of a heart of immense, immeasurable love!
How special, then, does that make HIS kindness to us? How thankful, how joyful we can be at this reality!
The other side is, as we understand more deeply how God moves towards US with loving-kindness - let us ask Him for grace to do things for others, not just out of 'civility', or 'politeness', or because 'it's expected of us by society," but let us be kind BECAUSE WE ARE LOVED OF GOD, and therefore, with THAT love bestow kindness on others!
Glory to God now and evermore!
One tribe out of many. Individuals but from the same.
Evidence of the tribe is the history of who we were!
God loves the tribe, He created it!
All tribes are Signiant, they think differently, they experience differently, yet they are all from the same.
The creator has given the keys, and yet we do not use them.
These keys will open the universe, avenues that some tribes may never come to know.
The keys are here, do you know where they are?
You must look inside you to find them, then you will see who has the real keys!
You will begin to see the universe of love, a love beyond the comprehension of the mind!
Look inside, not outside, and you will find the keys!
Repent and be Baptized
