A disciple, So is the need for a sword a mystery to you? To what end did Jesus make a whip?People are "dead in trespasses and sin".Sinners are quickened by the Holy Spirit, and then can hear, as the born again saved for all eternity.God is sovereign in saving whom he pleases. When Jesus said "It is finished", all that was needed to save was done by him.We DO in return for what he has DONE for us.

IRENE123: where do you get your supporting scripture or instructions to worship or "keep Sunday as the Sabbath?"

Verse 25: "And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?"

This does not mean adding height. This means that by taking thought, you cannot prolong your life. You can't add one second to your life, so the Lord Jesus warns us to be ready always.

A disciple, "be perfect as our heavenly Father", we failed perfection in Adam,as creatures.Can't deny Jesus said," buy a sword", but for what purpose? Are people lost because they are not good enough, or saved because they are good enough?In the Lord I put my trust. He saved me,not I myself. The death of Jesus for me is my only plea.What I know of him is only by his grace, through his word.

1 Corinthians 6:9 9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind

Daniel; Yes, by the way you look at it, absolutely! But why does the LORD say so many times in the Law, that This Shall Be A Statute Forever Unto The Children Of Israel? Did He not know that He was going to come in the flesh and completely make it full? That doesn't seem likely! Maybe if we understand it as sacrifices were originally intended, instead of the religious icon they became...?

Emanuel: Friend, please tell me then what Jesus did for us. The old covenant forgave sin, so what does the New Covenant do? As far as me and my family, we will never go back to thinking we are still yet sinners after what Jesus did for us! The KJV says "while we WERE yet sinners". The KJV says "Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin"! Holy

If you once were saved and were abused and broke Gods laws is that an automatic death sentance even if you rededicate and go back to him where you belong?

Now, consider this. Yea; I say, Now consider this. Consider all these things that be told unto you: and consider your doings. Repent of your wickedness and be saved from your sins. Relieve the poor and the humble of his debts NOW so that your own debts may be forgiven. Why be in jeopardy another moment, O people? Confess the Lord JESUS: and call on his name, Michael Isaac, and thou shall be saved.

Disciple, you never answered my question youre very vague and ambiguous which most lost people are! So a saved person'S flesh DONT SIN? (THE KEY WORD BEING FLESH!) Then why do we need a glorified body ? Whats the day of redemption? if we dont sin why does our body needs to be redeemed? ITS BECAUSE IT STILL SIN! Paul said I myself(soul) serve the law of God. MY FLESH SERVES THE LAW OF SIN!

Bsp, where's the contradiction?

Sara, when are the last days?

Emanuel; "My little children, these things I write unto you, THAT YOU SIN NOT!" The Apostle then goes on with words of comfort and encouragement "IF anyone sin.." but not to throw a blanket declaration over all of us that we're still in bondage. Who told you that you're sinning every day? Are you really? Jesus saves us FROM OUR SINS so that we can be reconciled to God and be His children in truth.

Daniel; Your Welcome! Its in the last chapters, from 40 on; where the Prophet is brought in visions to see the City, and the Angel (?) is measuring and describing everything.. Very interesting, but hard to picture exactly. Talk to you soon.

Chap 8 v 5. " ... and offer the gift that Moses commanded" What is that gift?

(continued) If so, what kind of credentials did Matthew have amongst the Jews?

I had just written a question as to the background of Matthew and then proceeded to the Commentary which says that his last name is Levi, and that he converted. I am curious about this because the old testament writers all carried some kind of Godly credentials. What did Matthew convert from, and what did he convert to? The commentary says it is written primarily to the Jews. (See next comment)

The person named Matthew apparently wrote the Book of Matthew. Do we know anything about his history?

I see a lot of confusion on here about what happened with Ham. He is cursed for fornication, it is a sin to see your parents naked according to Leviticus 18:7. He is not cursed for incest, that is heresy. What would covering the mother do to fix the problem? Also, if that were the case, she would be in the midst of sin as well.

If you actually read not skim my comments you would get my point. I said there is no way to blasphem and not be forgiven. You can blaspheme the Holy Ghost and be forgiven. The Pharisee we're not to be forgiven because Jesus was physically here on earth. That's the difference! Charamastic believe YOU CANT BE FORGIVEN TODAY WHICH IS WRONG. Does anyone TRULY LABOR IN THE WORD ANYMORE?

Wild Bill Salvation is a birth via his seed the word, They don't call him the bridegroom for nothin, he has a seed to sow in humanity which is gonna make humanity his Mother, who is MY MOTHER? ( impling a birth ) them that hear the Word and keeps it,whosoever receives one such Child in my name receives ME,A BIRTH THESE THINGS ARE HID FROM THE WISE AND PRUDENT BUT REVELED UNTO BABES IMPLING A BIRTH

In the beginning was God and the beginning wasn't 6000 years ago for God is eternal, and God wasn't created. Man didn't wash up on shore intact but evolved for there is forensic evidence to support such. Does that make God null and void.? God is Spirit, an altogether different dimension. However we came to be who we are doesn't matter for we are to bend to God's will if we want peace, period

Emanuel: That's the saddest thing I've ever heard. "Evil and sin dwells within me"....My God! Didn't Jesus do ANYTHING for you! What DID HE do for you? Tell me. It's not about feelings...it's about believing! Obedience, not sacrifice! If we are yet in our sin, Christ is not raised in us, and out faith is vain! For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. Truth

"For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus." Leading in to this statement, Paul uses the simile of a "Schoolmaster " and the idea of Graduating has many apparently confused about the importance of the Law "because we are NOW Christians under grace." What part of any of God's commandments are we now released from keeping? Seventh-Day Sabbaths? No Covetousness? Doing no evil to our neighbor? Honoring our parents? NO IDOLS? And which of all the Statutes and ordinances? The sacrifices and observing holy days? We read in the Prophets that these too will all be kept and practiced under the full weight of Christ's Authority, and penalty by His Rod of Iron if they don't. There are many things we have yet to learn! The Apostles commanded that the Gentiles should not be held under scrutiny or bondage to keep the Law of Moses, as in becoming Jews but they DID NOT DENOUNCE IT, OR FORBID IT! Paul's teaching was to show the completeness of the grace of God in Christ for the Believer NOT to overthrow what God had enjoined to Israel for ever.

Dear Emanuel; you are mistaken about how one can blaspheme the Holy Spirit. Are you not aware of the furious rage of blasphemy against the Spirit coming from all sides these days? What about EVERYTHING coming out of Hollywood and the entire Entertainment Industry? Also, about being "Charismatic;" you should do an unbiased study on its origins and put them alongside the Scriptures: NOT of the LORD!

PRAISE THE LORD GOD ! MESSIAH LORD GOD JESUS CHRIST! As, ELIJAH said seek the Baalzebub you shall surely die. Also go to youtube ALL rivers are turning to blood all around the world. key in "rivers turn to blood" also "mass animals die" THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND. ARE TRULY YOU READY?

Hi Daniel; That is the Eternal Truth of God! Jesus Christ the Son of God loved us and gave Himself for us a perfect work to redeem us to God for ever! But about the sacrifices under the priesthood of Aaron; in Ezekiel is described a future where the LORD IS sitting King over all the earth from His Palace in Jerusalem, and the sacrifices and first priestly services continuing! Any thoughts on this?

What is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit?

No study to see thyself approved pleased we don't study no more. I'm a saved sinner so are you saying your aimlessly perfect? Paul said he is the chief of sinners. Evil is still present with me sin still dwelleth with me. THIS IS A SAVED MAN SPEAKING. ROMANS"A wretched man that I am "! Your flesh is still sinful THE DIFFERENCE IS HEARTFELT CONVICTION OF SIN. The pleasure of sin decreases

Verse 26 states: "And God said , Let us make man in our image"..........who might the "us" and "our" be a reference to?
