    You, too. I am sorry that your marriage was so difficult.

    My hubby and I have been married 42 years, all with the Lord as our LEADER!

    Absolutely! Keep spreading the love and when you walk with the lord he will be the only judge and jury. We all should listen to one another and not judge, or correct. Our hearts should always come to deep love and compassion for each other. This October I was obtained three time by police officers in public for praying. They put me in for Psych evaluation twice because my wife did not like my faith coming into our life. After going through 81 test of neurological , physical, mental, and 25 blood test they just realized that I was completely coherent. My wife suggested one last test of a spinal tap! So after 26 years of verbal and mental abuse I left. God continues to guide me and no mater what so I got his Back and he has Mine.

    God bless you and may he continue to watch over you.

    Amen

    Christopher,

    When Jesus returns to reign, then we will have a perfect government, based on Him. Until then, our world is still under the power of Satan, but for believers. Our calling is not to set the world aright. Jesus will do that when He returns. Our calling is to share Him with whomever will listen in hopes that the body of Christ may be added to daily.

    If your heart is pure of loving the Lord Jesus Christ you will be with him. Today in this time of darkness Mankind has felt they have become the rulers of the earth. Only Gods law should exist and we have fallen a stray and completely forgotten his love. This is why this world is in such disarray and upside down. God is truly Love and we completely forgotten to Thank him and Love him back.

    May God be with you in Jesus Christ name.

    Amen Amen Amen

    Dark times surely. We are living in dark times. But, I got this to say, if He comes back while I'm still alive, He will have one faithful.

    luke 18:8 poses the question ," When the Son of man comes, will he find on this earth anyone of faith?

    it seems to me that 2 Esdras 5:1 answers this question:

    "Nevertheless as coming the tokens, behold, the days shall come , that they which dwell upon earth shall be taken in great number, and the way of truth shall be hidden , and the land shall be barren of faith.

    it seems like that last days will be a very dark time. Not many people will have any type of faith of knowledge of biblical teachings. It seems to me , that when this occurs, the arrival of the son of man, Jesus, will be close at hand.

    there seems to be no comment on this scripture anywhere that I can find. I am speaking of Luke 18:8. what do you think or believe on this

    So who did Esther marry? Boaz? You err not knowing the scriptures, you understand through the lusts of your flesh.

    You want to explain these statutes? Leviticus 22:10-13, Deuteronomy 21:10-14, & Deuteronomy 23:7-8

    I think you have not read yet 2 Ezra which is 2 Esdras in the apocrypha. After reading Ezra, 1 Esdras, and Esther (both books and in order) then you need to read 2 Esdras. God did not answer them, he was not with them, he never responded to Nehemiah's cry for Him to come and dwell with them, yet there was no answer. They were never saved from captivity by going back to the land trying to rebuild a house to the Lord. They rebelled against his captivity and he tells Ezra to tell the people there that they need to go their way (2 Esdras 1:4-9). They thought the burden of the Lord (the reason he didn't come) was because of the stranger wives ( Jeremiah 23:25-40 & Lamentations 2:14). So they put them and their children away. They were wrong. Listen to the prophets he proclaimed came from him (2 Esdras 1:38-39). 2 Esdras 2:1-17, 2 Esdras 2:33-48, 2 Esdras 3:23-4:2, 2 Esdras 5:16-19, 2 Esdras 6:57-59, Psalm 127:1. Either be in captivity still or seek the Lord with all your heart and soul and He will release unto you the wisdom and understanding of His word through your spirit. 2 Chronicles 6:29-33, Ezekiel 47:21-33, Isaiah 56:1-8, etc. etc. there is so much more... Christ comes in the full volume of the book, do not add nor take away. Cherry picking scriptures is of the false teachers who have come to deceive and the Word of God is not in them.

    The earth is approaching old age and all of creation groans with this same aging. As anything else, when aged, the function is not as it was when new.
