Who wrote the book of Hebrews? Does The book of Hebrews applies to Gentiles specially Chapter 8:11?

Micah 6:8 sums up the whole duty of man just like Matthew 22 summarizes what is important in the completed witness of the law and the prophets.

Micah 6:8

He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

Matthew 22

35 Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,

36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38 This is the first and great commandment.

39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

Irene 123 pointed out Eccl 12:13, which is also a summation of all that God requires of men.

Ecclesiastes 12:13

Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

Why do we celebrate Jesus Birthday on the 25th of December when He doesn't tell us when He was born? We are not suppose to celebrate His Birthday or He would have told us the date He was bprn. Why are we putting a Christmas tree up in our house and decorating it with garland and glass Balls when God plainly tells us

what he is going to do with that tree when he comes and it won't be good. Why are we celebrating Christs birthday on a Pagen Holiday. Why did we follow the Catholic church when they chose Sunday to be the Sabbath day when the Sabbath is clearly on Saturday.

Why are we following mans traditions when God said that we are not to follow mans tradition of this world?

Did Jesus "Back Away" from Jerusalem before entering on a donkey? Did he not want to go into Jerusalem? I heard a preacher say this and I've never heard that before? My belief is that Jesus is GOD and knows all things. Why would he back away. He knew is purpose on earth.

Why are there two creation accounts in Genesis?

yes could you break this chapter down to me

when was saul name change to paul

Referring to both books of Samuel and to the reports of a whole series of massacres inflicted upon various and many other tribes by Israel who were progressively invading the "Promised Land" with the assistance of GOD - indeed could not possibly have achieved their objective, also GODs objective in keeping his covenant with Israel.

How does this fit with the Ten Commandment that GOD gave to Moses?

Psalm 139

19 Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God: depart from me therefore, ye bloody men.

20 For they speak against thee wickedly, and thine enemies take thy name in vain.

21 Do not I hate them, O Lord, that hate thee? and am not I grieved with those that rise up against thee?

22 I hate them with perfect hatred: I count them mine enemies.

Christians are not to love the world neither the things in the world and are to have disgust for those who openly defy and blaspheme God with venom.

Job 32:6

And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion.

Job 32:10

Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion.

Job 32:17

I said, I will answer also my part, I also will shew mine opinion.

There are three times in the KJV that the English word "opinion" is used, all in Job 32. The book of Job is a book of arguments. The word "arguments" is found only one time in the Bible, also in Job.

Job 23:4

I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.

The English word "arguing" is also found only one time in the Bible, in Job.

Job 6:25

How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove?

Job and his three friends all expressed their opinions and argued in support of their opinions but God rebuked all four of them in the end for the errors in their thinking. Elihu was not rebuked and he was the only one of the lot who did not come across as one who is right and everyone else was wrong. He gave his opinions (which were right), called them his opinions, and offered for any of the others to prove him wrong after he spoke.

Elihu was right and should be a lesson to us about arguing our opinions in front of others. Give our views as our views and genuinely and politely allow others to express opposition with their arguments.

HOW DO WE CALCULATE Jesus time of his ministry ? and how could his brothers not have seen his life events , there is nothing written about Jesus from the time he was 12 years od , until he was baptized by John the Baptist . or have I missed something ?

Job 32:6

And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said, I am young, and ye are very old; wherefore I was afraid, and durst not shew you mine opinion.

Job 32:10

Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion.

Matthew 16:18

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. 1 Corinthians 10:4

[ Luke 9: the account of Jesus's Transfiguration]

28-29 And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, Jesus took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.

And as Jesus prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and glistering.

Verses 33-35

And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three (CHURCHES) tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: NOT knowing what he said.

While he thus spake, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.

And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: HEAR HIM!!

Here is my reply on Sabbath arguments: God doesn't care about our rituals, buildings or projects, which day of the week, etc.

It causes strife, arguing, anger and Chaos. WHO is the god of Chaos? Satan laughs at us!

When the doors are open for services and communion, attend. It's that simple. What God said, is the bottom line. It was Jesus's custom to attend church when he was in town. He is the Church. If his life is inside of us, we are a member of that Church.

I have church in my home often. I turn off tv, internet, the phone-put on simple praise music

And enter into worship. It's Jesus's Church. We are IN CHRIST. This is what God meant. Hear Jesus.

We are mobile Churches. We are his hands, his feet, we carry his Word within us. Go Ye into the community.

We know "who" is the originator of anger, disgust, rebellion. His TIME is short. He's advancing on Jesus's Church. Resist it in Jesus Name. Let Jesus love flow out instead. It's a daily choice.

I love you

Comment: in this world we are aliens. Our true home is in heaven. We can't "fix" this world. God has plans for the ultimate "RESET". 2 Peter 3

You might listen to some Greg Laurie (Harvest Church) on YouTube. He's been preaching a lot on Signs and Revelation.

Three signs are the World Governments working together to bring about: One World Government, One World Money System; and One World Religion.

In the future, we can't use the current money systems. They'll KNOW how much money we have. They'll offer a mark: one the HAND or FOREHEAD to use our own money.

I call those things, "thermometers". We need to pay attention to world systems, but not to run our lives. Ok?

We must be born again as Jesus told us. John 3. People judge Jesus by how we act. Jesus gives us the Holy Spirit to help us live as Christian followers of Jesus.

We need to grow our faith. Not fear.

Di God gives a message to Micah for Isreal?

First Question: What are the seven churches by name, and what does it mean to know of them?

Question: What of those faithfully believe in Jesus, but are innocently lead/deceived by the wrong church?

I am searching for bible verses that point me to where Jesus said to be in the look out for his 2nd return. I need help. Thank you.

An Encouragement in Christian Journey

Mark 9:41:- For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.

Romans 16:13:- Salute Rufus chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine.

Who is this Rufus? Why do we consider him?

Rufus is the best example, the promise given by Jesus Christ himself is still in effect. Rufus is a Son of Simon a Cyrenian who bore Christ's cross for a while ( Mark 9:41, 15:21). It is the true and greatest joy for Simon a Cyrenian to know his Son found Christ and saved and has a notable place in Paul's Salute. ( 3 John 1:4)

When you bleep out words in the Bible like, ass, you make it seem like God was swearing. People can look it up in the dictionary if they don't know what an ass is. Why make the world think God was using bad language and YOU corrected Him? You are taking words out of the Bible and woe unto you!

Chris or any who want to reply:

Apologies for not responding earlier. Thank you for your response! I consider myself to be one who has been on 'milk' for way too long. I am now attending a local church and am in a woman's Bible study who is studying Hebrews.

I am also in dialogue with the pastor about salvation. He believes that man has his own will to 'walk away' from God and that God will not fight the will of man. Thankfully he is very open to questions and thus far from his sermons, is not one that preaches condemnation-works salvation.

From a very simple viewpoint, I think about ones who live in a rural area that have only one church available to them. This is likely not true now but in the past is a possibility. I say all this because won't there be many in that church community that are 'saved' but may have differing interpretations? Eph 4:13 came up in my study today, not sure I am taking it out of context, but could it support my simple viewpoint? Thank you again.

God bless you

Is our Earth flat?

Please a Christian keep the Shabbath?

Thank you

what is frowardness

is the oil the same that was put on people for healing? verses 22 to 28

How come I see no discussion on addiction and the forgiveness for it and the slander and gossip and profiling and judgement of it and the law and fellow Christians not being at all Christian about it

How do you know that even though a man may say that he doesn't feel the same but comes back to you repeatably should you leave or be patient and persevere because you already know it's meant to be what verse backs your knowledge of this
