Example: Why would someone hate a child because she/he can speak for themselves and defend themselves from bulling?
Why is it that persons from the ghetto believe that hurting others is good or have to be done to those who are quiet and worshiping Jehovah?
Why are adults hypocrites and deliberately believe that they are righteous?
Why do woman accept men's bad behaviors but trash other females when they act the same way?
Why do female think they can accept men who smell bad but disrespect other female who don't wear cheap colognes?
Why do female try to fight other females for their husbands when that man doesn't belong to them?
Why do men of stupidity and high positions looks down on women of the same degree or higher degree?
A very strong scripture spoken by Jesus below:
Matthew 18:3
"And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven."
We MUST be converted, and BECOME as "little children"....or we "SHALL NOT" enter into the kingdom of heaven!!!!!
Do you believe this? I do..
I do not mean to be controversial or disrespectful to this thread of conversation - I simply was raised to question everything in secular life and religious life and so it is with this curious epistemological mindset that I pose this question. Thank you for your time reading and for any responses I get to this post.
What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
1 Corinthians 9:14
Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.
1 Corinthians 9:16
For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, WOE is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
Galatians 1:11
But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
Galatians 1:7
Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
2 Corinthians 4:3
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
Romans 1:1
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
Comment by Mishael: Don't you yet see that THE GOSPEL is the person of Jesus Christ?
He is the fulfillment of prophesies foretold by the prophets.
The Gospel we carry to unsaved people are: Jesus's virgin birth, Jesus's Sinless Life on Earth, Jesus's Crucifixion, Jesus's Resurrection.
If anyone thinks in their heart, that Jesus is a Religion, that people modified to fit their Religion__then you need to be born again as Jesus told Nicodemas. John 3.
On the Mount of Transfiguration, when Peter saw Jesus in his glorified person, the first thing he wanted to do was construct 3 Churches. That's Flesh! Even God spoke from a cloud and told Peter to stop it and Listen To Jesus I would say that is how a lot of people get themselves into a Box. I suggest we slowly read that passage.
The Gospel is meant to be CARRIED to the people. Did you know there is a demon that is named: Religious Spirit? Google that. What is its purpose?
We make up religion to keep the Gospel in a box. "BEAUTIFUL are the feet of those that carry the Good News." This is where I say, pause and think on these things...and pray.
This seems too contradictory as to be silly. Would these translators (ESV et al) have us believe that Job's covenant would prevent him--or us today--from gazing at the girl ("virgin") who happens to be on the platform singing a solo in a worship service? It seems to me that some of these translators have bought into Stephen Arterburn's eye-bouncing!
Or has a more recent Hebrew version of Job been discovered than that (Erasmus Textus Receptus) which the traanslators of the KJV and the 1560 had available? (???)
Thanks,

Verse 12 the Feast of Tabernacles would be seven days, and then verse 13 specifies that on the first day there were to be fourteen lambs "without blemish".
Then, on the second day in verse 17, there were to be fourteen lambs "without spot".
The third day (verse 20) and the fourth day (verse 23) were also to have fourteen lambs "without blemish", then on the fifth day (verse 26) there were to be fourteen lambs again "without spot".
The remaining sixth (verse 29), seventh (verse 32) days also specify fourteen lambs "without blemish", then on the eighth day (verse 35-36) there were to be seven lambs "without blemish".
One would suppose that "spot" and "blemish" are interchangeable, yet verses such as 1 Peter 1:19 - "But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish AND without spot:" [capitals mine] they are certainly two separate and distinctly different words.
Why are the lambs on days 2 and 5 to be without spot, and the rest of the days the lambs are to be without blemish?"

7 O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, AS AT THIS DAY; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are FAR OFF, THROUGH ALL THE COUNTRIES, whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.
8 O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.
9 To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him;
10 Neither have we obeyed the voice of the LORD our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.
11 Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by DEPARTING, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.
12 And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem.
13 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the LORD our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.
14 Therefore hath the LORD watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the LORD our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.
It is entirely possible that the Jews have shed their tears on the wrong wall. But even so, God has surely heard the HEART OF THOSE PRAYERS.
Again I say that the Lord TOLD US to pray for the Peace of Jerusalem. It wasn't a suggestion.
We are Gentiles GRAFTED INTO A JEWISH TREE.
Have you ever studied how to graft trees or plants?
Google that. The Tree is known by its Roots.
Enlightening.
