Please excuse me again, but what exactly was the argument about? And what was it in this chapter, that led to this? "But if you bite and devour one another, take heed lest you be consumed one of another." "A soft answer turns away wrath..." and, "a brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city." There's so much super-sensitivity in these "discussions;" What do you do in a REAL conflict?

"Satan held captive every soul that died" Are you saying that David,Moses,Abraham,Isaac,Jacob,Daniel,Joshua,and all the other godly men that died before His crucifiction,etc,etc were not godly men? Did they worship satan? I hope for your soul's sake you are not saying this! Irene.

V.5 - refers to the practice of these new female saints of cutting their hair when they were in idol worship. To God a woman cutting her hair (even just 'bangs') is a sin against HIM, not the world. A woman's hair is her GLORY. Why? No one knows, but - everything else being as it should, i.e. men with short hair - women are easily distinguished from men from a distance at certain angles.

Forgetnot,Are you saying one cannot recognize a saved person?Last part;Matt.12:34"out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh"John10:5 (a saved person will not follow a stranger)John10:27 (Jesus said)"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them,and they follow me" As in Isaiah11:2(does the person claiming to be saved have such things?)And 1Corinthians14:14. Saved=heeding God's word,repent.

Dear Vuiswa kganathe; Do you believe that Jesus is the Son of God? Have you been made to feel guilty because of sins and things you've done wrong; and have prayed to God in Jesus' name with repentance? Have you resolved in your heart to from now on turn your back on your old ways and the world, to follow Jesus?

"Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant,
and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate, and the Lord have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land." How many Scriptures do we need to convince us, that, "He that ENDURES TO THE END the same shall be saved!" There is a reason why God has us here.

it made me wander if i do really know who is Jesus. if i know him, i my following his commandments as i should? so hepl me God to trust and obey. Most of all to know HIM

What is the meaning of these words COVER and UNCOVER as used in 1 Corinthians 11 : 4 - 5?

Bruce - if the serpent was a snake as we know them, then why did God curse it and say it would go on its belly and dust would it eat ..., if it was already a snake? Isa.1:18 "Come, let us reason together; ... "

Mary, 1 10 17, Gen. ch.5 Quote - "And Cain is not mentioned because Adam was not his father and Abel was not mentioned because he was killed by his paternal brother Cain." unquote. If Abel was his paternal bro., then how can Adam NOT be Cain's father?

May I also get into this discussion? I think that there are some things that we'll just have to wait to know when we get there. Jesus said, All they who are of the truth WILL hear my voice: which to me says, that we were known and marked by God before we were saved. Or what about the Book of Life, and all the innumerable souls that will be saved after the Thousand Years? I agree with Lu2677 here.

Gen. 4:7 - "If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto the shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him."
Paraphrase - If you'll do well, your brother will seek for your counsel, and you'll rule over him as the authoritative head of the family. "The Word Started it All."

I know as believers we see how AWESOME GOD n his SON are,but I was wondering are we so afraid to ask normal ?'s and converse with our father,bc we think it's sinning or something?what if you were father up stairs and you see people who love you speak on your behalf and all that comes from them to others if you don't do this father will be upset,your a sinner,not father wants to be friends and no u

I didn't mean to offend or upset anyone,if i did im sorry and please forgive me,I am just trying to say that alot of us know the holy book side of GOD n his SON,but is there not another side?like humor,or favorite colors,I think alot of people end up veiwing father as a TYRANT,an oppresive ruler,do this and that or you go to hell,it doesn't really help people get to know them,they want friendship

Irene: Did The Lord Say:But seek ye first The Kingdom of God and His Righteous; and all these things will be added to you. Matthew 6:33,or no seeking need. Just love! Changing scripture! Where does that come from? (You know)Do not add or take away? Both has been done. And you say it's "ok"? We who are Washed by The Blood,Preach The Word as Written as much as possible.

I hope it's ok to comment on Bruce and Lu's words to one another,I think what Im understanding is Bruce is saying the day you ask jesus into your heart,is a day worth remembering,and when you can't remember it may come across like it wasn't a i guess special enough day?,like remebering your birthdate,and the fruit is spiritual meat,and isnt part of being reborn baptism as well?may you be blessed!.

I have a question,I see IRENE 123 posted about wearing pants,and it got me thinking,would it be considered a I guess GUY clothing?,I mean when I was younger I was a tom boy,lol,eww to dresses,but now I like to wear long skirts and long dresses,I am more conservative,I tried wearing skinny miny but,it wasn't very becoming,all due to what was hip lol,but as I got older I like to wear jeans.

I am speaking of those who say they know what the word is,yet critize things in the bible and say stuff like GOD can't be who wrote these words and there are some people who are believers that make GOD out to be nothing but a dictator,like we have no freedom of choice to choose,I was wondering if people ever ask God and JESUS how are you doing today?,insead of bless me and other things,thats all..

Irene, I see from your post 3mo. ago and your post where you say God was alone when he said"Let us make man in our image" that you have no understanding of John 1:1. Do you not know that The Word and Jesus is one in the same?

Irene, I read the whole chapter,V16"slew all the children,from 2yrs.old and younger"Why do you think"and younger"is there?No where does this verse say he was 2.If scripture doesn't say he was 2,neither should you.( Proverbs 30:6, Tim.3:16, , 2 Peter 1:20, Zephaniah 3:20.
Rebuke from a friend is better than a kiss from an enemy. I contend for God's truth.

What was the sin of Adam which Paul references that has doomed many to condemnation? He believed his God given wife, Eve, who was seduced by Satan. This paradigm is not changed by Jesus! It obviously still exists today, this world being overwhelmed by sinful inhabitants. But the good news is that God had strengthened his argument by sending his beloved Son in his stead to plead with us of God

"A Fresh Look At Matt. 28:19"; Trinitarians favorite scripture is, in reality, one of the best vs. for Jesus name one God believers. It is easily rendered so by asking the simple question, 'What is the name'? The answer is: JESUS. Jesus ALSO said, "That repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name." Peter got it exactly right with Acts2:38, Peter again, Acts 4:10-12; 10:1-6.

" ... and John was clothed with camel's hair and ate locusts and wild honey." John wasn't the reincarnation of Elijah (Elisha? sorry, can't recall which). Just as Elijah's mantle fell on Elisha - the mantle (Ordaining) fell on John. There was no 'reincarnation'; that's witchcraft and witchcraft is rebellion - 1 Sam. 15:23. And no, I did not MISQUOTE; I did not intend to quote.

Hello Saints,

I know church folks, who never pay tithes. I wonder what happens to people who go on home to heaven, who never paid tithes? Do you think their may be some laundry to do in heaven?

Mari; You made my day! You really did. I was wondering about you, why I hadn't seen you. Are you alright? All Glory be to the Lord and our God JESUS!!! Jn.20:28

iv never see a she goat marrying a he dog cos there of nor same kind of animal,if it happens,who will the baby look like?,since it does not share the face of dog or goat,he or she can not enjoy the inheritance of either parents.so also the daughter of God,if u marry outside or fathers family[christians],u cant enjoy the inheritance of your father.

"...and they shall turn away [their] ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." Now most of us are quite familiar with the really gross errors and sects which are obviously off from the Scriptures. But what also might be meant by; (as the Lord Jesus warned to beware of); the MANY who say all the right things, but are in truth gone aside, and are out of the way? What is, Another Gospel?

Bruce - Hi; how are you ... ? The question you asked Marta 3 mos. ago about TWO scriptures. the 1st part was from Deut. 6:5; the 2nd from Matt 6:33. I'm sure you knew that ...? You're not ignorant of the scriptures. She rather gave it as one scripture, but she didn't intend it that way.

S. Morrow (LU2677) - yeah, I'd like to know that too ?! about more than 400 spaces.

Bruce, Is your reply an answer to my question? I want to know where scripture says he was 2. She said he was 2.
