Matthew 12 verses 43 thru 45 what does these verses mean when Jesus was talking

John 3:16

For God [Jesus] so loved the world he gave his only begotten son So that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting life.

What am I supposed to do with that?

Did Job say that his spiritual food was more important than his natural food?

If some people still want to deny that Jesus Christ has as much power as his Father....

Look at the scripture John 10:30 "I and my Father are one."...

and read the whole chapter...do not deny Jesus and say only the father can make great things happen..becouse so can Jesus...he is the reason we are still here. he died on the cross for our sins, so we may be able to have redemption.

I will continue to worship and go to church...I am Apostolic Pentecostal ..I have been told "This religion is not widely accepted"...well neither was Jesus Christ..for they crucified him on the cross and that "IS" widely accepted..it is known worldwide...

Thank you all for your time and responses and reply's...

i love Jesus Christ and he is the reason I am still here today. on this earth.

Goodbye.

I still will use this site for Bible study, for this site is a very wonderful way to study the King James Bible.

Why is the King James Bible the only true Bible in my opinion and others as well ?

Because it is a English Preservation of the very words of "God"..and it is as accurate as the original Greek and Hebrew manuscripts found in it's underlying texts. adherents to this belief many also believe that the original languages "Hebrew" AND "Greek" can be corrected by the King James Bible..

Thank you for your time.

Principles of Witnessing

Its a joy and privilege never out of bondage. When witnessing and right on with word it Glorifies

God always. The word of God living in you will be the burning drive in you. Its the love of Christ that drives us to

do the work of Christ. People will read you before they read the word we are the witness. Don't be like a bull in

a china closet have focus. Every person and situation is different this is not a canned walk ask God all the time

about what to do. Its the highest privilege we have as ambassadors for Christ 2 Corinthians 5:20so believe in His

ability in you that's what people in darkness see His light in you shining Mathew 5: 14-16. This is done by

inspiration not perspiration so spiritually let er rip tatter chip for God!

One more comment on soul winning: Your intercessory prayer life has to have deep roots.

With Intercessory Prayer within a group at your Church. If there isn't one, then with those interested at someone's home.

Pray for God to send angelic protection to accompany you. Give thanks.

It's best to do it like Jesus taught. You need a partner to go with you. Get your Bibles equipped with a LIST of scriptures easily accessed. I buy and take an assortment of Bible Tracts with me. Chick Tracts DOTcom. Read some and pick what will be attractive. Write your church name on the back.

PRAY for the Holy Spirit to bring people to your route who are ready to hear the Gospel. Carry your Bibles openly and folks will be curious.

No matter being heckled, repay with kindness. One on one is best. Sometimes offer a cup of coffee in McDonald's for privacy if need be.

Stay off private property and on public right of way.

Just hang out and look friendly. Listen to the leading of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes Jesus just disappeared in crowd gatherings. :) everyone would be saying where is he?

I write down everyone's name I lead to Christ in my Bible so I can pray for them later. Pray for their faith to run hot and not get cold. (Revelation)

Don't get into shout outs with "Christian" scientists, JW's, etc. it makes crowds gather.

Jesus will be there with you and the Holy Spirit. He was for me. I'd go to places where there was foot traffic. Right now there's a lot of curiosity because of all the disasters going on around the world. Do memorize Matthew 24 and Luke 21.

I tell stories like Jesus did. Most people will listen to a story; they'll take comic book tracts with them. I leave one on bus benches.

Be wise as a serpent and Mild as a Dove.

Please break down each parable so I can understand it. In jesus name Amen!

Chapter5:

1 And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:

2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Hello all dear Brothers and Sisters in the Lord.

Never forget that you are children, we can say fully taught, for some of us but still children for the Lord. For He has the last word.

Never forget when God drew you to Himself.

Never think of yourself, until you think of others as yourself.

Never go past any needy "beggars".

I also believe that we Christians would have had more to give to the poor and the beggars if we had not had large demanding houses and entertainment. Here I think most Christians have departed from the spirit of God to the spirit of the times.

Acts 5:1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,

2 And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet.

3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?

4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.

5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.

6 And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him.

7 And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.

8 And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much.

9 Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out.

10 Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband.

11 And great fear came upon all the churc.

God bless us all in Jesus Christ Holy Name.

What about a discussion of Mark 12:29? I find it interesting, after the scribe (verse 28) asks the important question, "What is the greatest commandment?", that there is seldom commentary regarding the actual answer (verse 29): "Jesus answered him saying, 'The greatest commandment is know, O Israel, the Lord OUR God is one Lord."

Discussion here completely omits any dialog about this verse about the answer Jesus gives him the clear and true meaning gets left out by saying, ".. the great commandment, which indeed includes all, is, that of loving God with all our hearts." What it also "includes" is the great commandment [quote]: "Jesus answered him saying, 'The greatest commandment is know, O Israel, the Lord OUR GOD is ONE Lord' (emphasis added).

Jesus is including himself with "OUR GOD" and why would he say "ONE" Lord, instead of trinity.

Also, if the word 'Trinity' is nowhere in the Bible . . . what can we think about that?

Thank you so much for opening up my mind and heart to consider the possibility of learning how to think for myself - instead of thinking what I'm told to think.

I love the beautiful way the Bible still tells it like it is, when it comes to monotheism.

One God.

Him I really want love with all my heart, mind, soul and spirit. Yes, I want to pray to the same God Jesus prayed to.

What is it to be poor in spirit?

Marcelo Take the time to look of the different usages of lord in the scripture, very inspirational!

Hi, why the Bible does not use the real names of God or Jesus and use the word Lord.

There are lots of lords in England.

God's real name is YHWH there are many god's Satan is a god.

Jesus' real name is Yahusha and in his time here in the world there was no letter J.

why use the Jews in the Bible as if they were YHWH people they are not the Hebrews of old, they are the Pharisees, that hated Yahusha.

They are pure Cabal from the Russian steps.

Are you even able to answer me? If you are it would be much appreciated.

YAH BLESS

So Abraham was trying to sacrifice his son? I'm a little confused.

Does god hold us responsible for not witnessing

Can you explain "the simple" in verse 6?

Context and identification of individual or group being addressed in any chapter or Book in God's Word is key to determine

specifically who God is speaking to. All Scripture was preserved for us, but not all verses are written to us. The promise, "no weapon formed against thee shall prosper......" was a promise of God specific to Israel the nation and people. The "weapons" being spoken of are literal, physical weapons of war. Notice the references to "blowing the coals in the fire......

bringing forth an instrument of his work.... and the word "smith" as in metal or blacksmith.(these are implements of war).

If this is a promise to all believers and applies some spiritual meaning to be a protection from harm from weapons or attacks as a believers claim to it, thru the finished work of Salvation, then where is the application to those who were/are beheaded for their faith and refusal to convert to Islam?!!!! Why are we then exhorted as Christians to, "put on the whole armor of God"( Eph. 6:11-18)? Because the weapons here in Ephesians are our weapons for battle, rather than some twist of a promise of God to Israel mis-applied to us(the Church).

Why did God set boundaries for the people in Exodus 19:11-12. Only Aaron & Moses were permitted to be on it. We're they not worthy?

Jesus sais to a rich young man who called Good Master, why do you call me Good? there is only One Who is GOOD, Whom is GOD!

Moses asked to see God's Face, and GOD answered showing His presence and hearing a proclamation of GOD's Character, as it's written on xodus 34:5-9, and also anouncedthe future of those who repent with an undivided heart and Faithfullness, as it's writtrn on deuteronomio 30.2-10. Jesus also gave testimony of GOD saying. - God so loved the world that gave His Begotten Son, for whosoever believe Him, don't perish but ay have Eternal LIfe! Jonhn 3:16 and 19 and 4: 24 and 26.God took upon Himself our sin and guilt, and as a man of sorrows, went till the end and gave all his love and Mercy to whosoever accepts Jesus as a personal Savior and Lord.

God's Justice was acomplished in Christ, as God's Lamb Who was slained since before the creaton of the Universe, before space and time. God is God, let's give Him what belongs Him and be humble before God, and practice justice towerds our neighbor, as Jesus did keeping all the ten commandements as He resumed to the rich young man.

To chose God we need to know Jesus and follow Him with all our will of power and unfailling Fait as He Had, on All Father's Word, and giving to Csar which belongs to Csar, being respectfull towerds authority, and honoring the governor or King., and forgiving all men as jesus forgave those who insulted and killed Him. men!

In v. 20, God told Balaam to go with the Moab princes; then in v.21, God became angry with Balaam. Why?

Is wormwood a preventative measure for illness, or a descriptive term for punishment?

I wish everyone look through 20-40 pages of Past Room History and count how many comments were about: Sabbath, Water Baptism or dates of Jesus's birth or death;

There are a lot of end time events happening today. They coincide with events in Daniel, some minor prophets, what Jesus, Peter, Paul, John the Beloved spoke of.

Israel is barely 10 miles wide. Joggers can run it forward and back every day; if not for tunnels, drones, snipers, etc. Things the Jews dig up almost every day. Do we pray for their wonder and excitement to find that maybe Jesus is/was their Messiah? The Palestinians are searching for the Mahdi to be revealed? They hemorrhage on YouTube every day, which group is going to fight another group and then March on Israel.

These are (wars and rumors of wars). We'd do well to keep an ear to the ground. Tracking earthquakes, disasters, financial shifting, are other SIGNS.

We are admonished to watch and pray, be looking up; be ready (10 virgins) AND TO SPOT THE SIGN: the Temple Built, and a world leader sitting on the Throne of David.THE ABOMINATION of DESOLATION.

Take Syria. Word says they will be totally destroyed to the ground. China and Russia may use the restored Silk Road for trade, ship oil or troops.

There are so many other inspiring stories in the Bible. Like when Nehemiah rebuilt the walls. Those things parallel to Intercessory Prayer; watch towers; spiritual warfare. I always try to make sure I keep my eye on Jesus who is interceding for the Saints. Do we truly Love Him well?

Feed My Sheep. John 21:14-22

Jesus is asking all of us that same question.

I say this with great humility and soberness: Jesus says, feed my sheep; carry my lambs in you arms of prayers. Lift up the fallen. The body of Christ is separated from the Head. Let's get connected. Anything we do for self__is FLESH.

If I offended anyone, I'm not going to stroke any egos (including mine). Lift up Jesus.

Where was Jesus between 12 years old hand 33 years old.

Roni Just asking are you thinking physical covering or opening on the side, also the ark was made of gopher

wood [cedar cypress or possibly fir] and pitch.

Genesis 8:13, states that Noah removed the covering of the Ark. Would like to know what this covering was ???

Why do l hide Gods word in my heart, when i should be sharing the word with unbelievers ?

2 SAMUEL 11:

26 And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she mourned for her husband.

27 And when the mourning was past, David sent and fetched her to his house, and she became his wife, and bare him a son. But the thing that David had done DISPLEASED THE LORD.

2 SAMUEL 12:

14 Howbeit, because by this deed thou hast given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also that is born unto thee shall surely die.

15 And NATHAN departed to his house. And the LORD struck the child that Uriah's wife bare unto David, and it was very sick.

16 David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth.

18 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spake unto him, and he would not hearken unto our voice: how will he then vex himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?

19 But when David saw that his servants whispered, David perceived that the child was dead: therefore David said unto his servants, Is the child dead? And they said, He is dead.

20 Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the LORD, and worshipped: then he came to his own house; and when he required, they set bread before him, and he did eat.

21 Then said his servants unto him, What thing is this that thou hast done? thou didst fast and weep for the child, while it was alive; but when the child was dead, thou didst rise and eat bread.

22 And he said, While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept: for I said, Who can tell whether GOD will be gracious to me, that the child may live?

Comment: this may be one time when a child died because ones actions. This is just something to consider. It bears no relevance to other comments. Mishael

Is this the same Barnabas, the murderer, released instead of Jesus? Wow what a twist if so. Makes sense for him to team up with Saul who hunted the disciples and now is a man of God.

I know this has nothing to do with Genesis, but I didn't know if I can ask questions from my heart, but if we don't know when the Lord is going to come to earth, which I know is called Judgement Day, how do we know he died in the first place?
