Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices which ye wrongfully imagine against me. For now ye are nothing: ye see my casting down, and are afraid. The sinners in Zion are afraid: fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings? For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.

Bruce, where is your 'love'? You never encourage anyone; you're always picking at what we put on here. That's what the Pharisees did. That's why Jesus got after them - their lack of love. He loved them, but had to do some 'straight' talking to them to reach at least one of them. Not for me, but for Jesus - please read the 'love' verses again; I know you have read them, and maybe know them.

To Bruce - You probably won't answer this, but - how were you baptized? Matt 28:19 ..... ? I was baptized by Matt. 28:19 - using the words of Jesus (thru Peter) of Acts2:38; Matt. 16:19.

Satan never asked permission, he never mentioned Job. The Lord said unto him, Satan has thou considered myself Servant Job---? Job1:8

Michelleann cont. - One needs the Holy Spirit indwelling in them ( Acts 2:38) for the power (strength) to acquire the peace of God that passeth ALL understanding. One prays everyday after being saved for a fresh infilling of God's spiritual gifts; we don't just pray one time for them. To have the power of His spirit in you, you HAVE to follow Acts 2:38. V, 37 - "what must we do?"

The scripture is plain clear. Public teaching of women where men are present is what the Apostle Paul is talking about. There's lots of work for a woman in the Church. Only this one is reserved for men. Must we argue with God?

This psalm means the world to me.
When my son was diagnose with stage 4 colon cancer at age 32 ,
I had shared the news to 3 personal good friends . They all said to me " where is your God ???" Your always perching to us !!!
I was floored ! Instead of receiving
Compassion from them . Father God put words in my mouth to respond to them ! He told me to say " He's right here with me !"

All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me? For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, says the LORD: I will set him in safety from him that puffs at him. To set up on high those that be low: that those which mourn may be exalted to safety. All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off: but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted. Now will I rise, says the LORD: now will I be exalted: now will I lift up myself. Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. Confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Behold your God!

The verse about not laying down with anger in my heart is so very hard for me.Especially when others hurt me.Or someone I love or just any injustices against those whom can not defend themselves.How do you overcome this any advice?

To Katapalca - I think maybe the 'consistency' of David's references to the word, law, judgments in almost every verse in this whole Psalm is what you were referring when you said, "..... always turning to the word ..... ? It's a GREAT Ps., isn't it? I'm sure very few people notice the consistency character of it. I did just now as I re-read it just before sending you this.

To Stephanie - Were you talking to me .....? Because you didn't use the "123" - I can't be sure, nor could I find any name of Irene or Irene123 in the back comments of this chapter. If you were I wish I remembered what I said to make you think I don't attend ch. enough,

What sabbath is the law refer to? The seventh day of the weekly? is it continue to this days?

From my understanding, Hebrews is not meant for gentiles. Have to be very careful what you're reading and what dispensation it is. Do gentiles understand what tithing is and how often it was actually done?
(I'm by no means an expert on the scripture but I do follow some well-studied teachers.)
Amen

I looked up "Esdras" in Wikipedia, since I didn't want to spend the time actually reading in it; and what I read, I didn't like. It apparently has some so-called visions of Ezra, and him asking questions of God; which in my opinion don't match up to the kind of man of God Ezra really was. For example; how could he think that misery and punishment is unjust for a people who obstinately refuse God?

The books of Esdras; I wonder if that's what the witch of Endor used ....... ?

Eliiah:Jesus is alive in the flesh. Where in the Bible is that found ?

Marta: the statement you made, where did that come from? I never heard of that one.

I don't understand how Paul could ask the question; "Have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord?" I didn't read about Paul until Acts. By the time the book of Acts was written, Jesus had already been crucified. Paul was on the scene when Stephen was stoned to death in Acts 7:58.

Genesis 22:20 "And it came to pass after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, Behold, Milcah, she hath also born children unto thy brother Nahor;" An ineresting part "after these things..." because it shows us something, that many of us feel often, as Christians in the world. How many times have we had great experience in God, and after to meet some who seemed only sent to "one up" us?

Genesis 10:25
"And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg; for in his days was the earth divided; and his brother's name was Joktan."
How was the earth divided? Was it only in the languages, and every family to their own borders? Also, as to the point that Peleg was named in the genealogy of the Lord Jesus; are we to draw some teaching about Christ being the cause of division?

I would encourage everyone to meditate on John 3. Are You born again? The spiritual birth opens our understanding, eyes to see ears to hear. The natrual birth while we had eyes and ears in the womb until birthed we did not see or hear. Many are not born again in the church let alone the world. They both are a struggle coming out of the womb and then the spiritual birth coming into Christ Jesus.

Hi, Neat post. There's a problem along with your site in internet explorer, may test this? IE nonetheless is the marketplace chief and a good part of folks will miss your wonderful writing due to this problem.

To J. Cardoza - You do include Eph. 2:10 with vs. 8-9 ....... ?

Vs. 4 Seems almost like a contradiction with this translation. I have to agree with Nkosilathi's thought. Was capital LORD originally written or was the Divine Name "YAHWEH" OR "JEHOVAH" written?

In the book habakkuk chapter two verse 2 question if I wanted to write the letter in verse to my prayer closet is the bathroom what I write a letter stick it in the bathroom or write a letter and put it in my Bible or write a letter and put it up?

Carmen are you saying, If we went to a priest, God will forgive our sins. Or, God will forgive us for going to a priest?

Tony:Yes it will. Years back pastors and others would be out inviting people to church, talking about the Lord and the Bible, it was common and accepted. People would receive 4- 12 visits a month from four different churches,plus JW. Today 0-5 maybe! Mostly JW. When "June" happened, shocked, total disbelief?!??!? GOD "did" bless U.S.A the Night cometh, when no man can work

Irene?:12:Neither received it of man,neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. Never saw the apostles,went to Arabia, then Damascus.V:17. ( Let's just stay in The B-I-B-L-E ) 2nd time) "Called" John6:44--, 1John 1:9--, "Will" be Baptized with the Holy Ghost and, Fire. "You will know"! 2Corinthians 5:17. Impossible not to know.

My comment and question about Genesis Chapters 1 and 2 is that there seems to be a contradiction between the two chapters. In Genesis 1, it says God created the animals first, then "male and female He created them" in Genesis 2, God created Adam, then the animals, hoping to find Adam a helpmeet, then created Eve. Can anyone explain this contradiction?

To B. K. Miller - Also, angels are Spirits; they cannot reproduce. I've seen this question on here many times from different men - never from a woman. As to giants; really now how big does a giant have to be? The Israelites were and are a relatively short people, like their 'brothers' the Ishmaelites. And look at f'ball and basketball men. They are giants.
