Discuss Ephesians 2 Page 18

  • D W L on Revelation 21 - 3 years ago
    Romans 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:

    Luke 16:16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

    John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. (verse 7 Jesus said)- Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye MUST be born again.

    Romans 4:3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.(Not because he is a Jew)

    Galations 3:6 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.

    James 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham BELIEVED God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.

    Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

    Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

    FAITH IS NOT WHO YOU ARE BLACK, WHITE, NATIONALITY HAS NO EFFECT ON BEING A HEIR WITH CHRIST BUT BY GRACE WE ARE SAVED BY/THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST

    Hi Marilyn. here is the sins of Sodom. Ezekiel 16:49-50 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.

    And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good.. Now concerning the darkness you spoke of. John 1:4-12 . In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

    And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

    There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

    The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.

    He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

    That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

    He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

    He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

    But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
  • S Spencer - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    Hi Marilyn, I find it concerning you never mentions Christ by means of Redemption! nor faith, nor grace, nor mercy. but you mentions the law by means of the commandments, Where is the sacrifices? do you know Christ came to fulfill the law? and the sacrifices pointed to him, the first being the skins God made Adam and Eve when they bit of the tree of knowledge? The issue was they knew they were naked/ "sin exposed " and they would try to cover themselves. You see Garments in the scripture often speaks of righteousness, ( Mans righteousness is as filthy rags). Do you know inside the tabernacle was the 10 commandments and over it was a mercy seat? the law was called the ministry of condemnation. Romans 7:8-14 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.

    For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.

    And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.

    For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.

    Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.

    Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.

    For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. Paul here is using himself as an example for us all. Now all the characters you used were just, question is how was they just? " The just shall live by faith " .They were perfect, "meaning blameless" They were right in their relationship with God, They were taught to offer up sacrifices, " by faith Abel offered up a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, Abel sacrifice pointed to Christ, Cains was the works of his own hands. They all was justified by faith.
  • S Spencer - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

    But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. Gal3:10-24
  • Chris - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    In a simple definition, to be 'holy' is to be 'pure, morally blameless, set apart'. And we are "to be holy as God is Holy".

    But to your other statements: given that you believe in abiding in & teaching Moses' Law, what is the 'other set of commandments' that is missing which we therefore fail to teach?

    The "sin of Sodom & Gomorrah were greater (in matter & consequence)". Are you referring to Sodomy? But of course, this was not the only sin that came up before God as the city was given over to all manner of evil bringing on God's Judgement. And David's sin of adultery? No worse than sodomy?

    Jude 12: those who were "twice dead" were not sodomites or anyone else, but to whom Jude refers to in verses 4, 8, 10-13 (ungodly men who used God's Grace to promote sin & who denied the Truth of the Father & the Son). They were not only dead by not producing 'edible fruit', but their root was rotten (twice dead). Nothing here about the "weightiest of the law" but simply carnal men doing the works of Satan.

    So back to "our children": the teaching of the commandments don't make children (nor us) holy. Even if we were able to fully obey the Law, which we can't, we would still fall short of God's requirement of us, because all the commandments given was to show us our sin & total depravity before God ( Romans 7:5-25). All sin is sin & abominable to God, whether sodomy, adultery, theft, lies, an evil thought. No commandment, however properly taught & observed, even from childhood, can deal with our sin & corrupt nature. Our children don't need the Laws - they need to hear the Gospel from the earliest age of understanding, that they might know that Jesus alone saves them, that they might put their trust in Him alone.
  • Earl Bowman - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    Fred, the Spirit is gracing you with his understanding and his wisdom. My reply is not so much to you; but to others who read and respect your comments. Our process of dying to the flesh and being made alive by the Spirit is described throughout the word of God, but most are hidden in parables, metaphors, similitudes, proverbs, etc. This is the Spirit's doing because without the SPIRIT you can't understand.

    Example:

    Zachariah 14:12 And this shall be the plague (spirit not natural) wherewith the Lord (Spirit) will smite ALL the people that fought (spiritually not naturally) against Jerusalem (spiritual not natural); Their flesh shall consume away (spiritually not naturally) while they stand upon their feet......FLESH AND BLOOD CANNOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

    Revelation is especially symbolic and hidden from natural eyes. It also describes how we die to the flesh.

    Isaiah 9:5 For every (natural) battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in (natural) blood; but this (spiritual battle for the kingdom of heaven) shall be with (spiritual) burning and FUEL of (spiritual) fire.

    Isaiah 9:19 .....and the people shall be as the FUEL of the (spiritual) fire.....

    Isaiah 4:4 When the Lord (Spirit) shall have washed away the FILTH or the daughters of (spiritual) mount Zion, and shall have purged the blood of (spiritual) Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the SPIRIT of judgement , and by the SPIRIT of burning.

    Hebrews 12:29 For our GOD (SPIRIT) IS A CONSUMING (SPIRITUAL) FIRE.

    Revelation 9:18 By these three was a third part of man (those called) killed (they died to the flesh), by the (spiritual) fire (Christ now in the form of the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit), and by the smoke, and by the brimstone.....

    Revelation 20:5 But the REST OF THE DEAD (those who have not yet died to the flesh) lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the FIRST RESURRECTION (therefore there had to be a FIRST DEATH.

    May the Spirit grace you.
  • Marilyn Taplin - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    The reason our children do not grow up holy is because we are only teaching one set of commandments. Moses gave us two sets. The missing set speaks of the weightier matters of the Law. There is a sin that is greater than other sins. For example those in Sodom and Gomorrah sin the greater sin. David's sin of adultery did not put him in S&G. Today, we are teaching the greater sin everywhere, on TV, Movies, within Christianity, our public schools, colleges and university's. Then we wring our hands and wonder where all the violence is coming from.

    The book is Jude tells us those in S&G are twice dead. In Verse 12, they are said ti be "Twice dead."

    Not just dead, not just once dead, but twice dead. They have broken the weightiest of the law.

    Can you explain Holy? What makes a person Holy?
  • Marilyn Taplin - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    There are many scriptures that tell us not to sin. Examples: ECC. 8:29, "Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright: but they sought out many inventions."

    Job 1:1, "...Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil." Job was perfect and he feared God. To fear God is to hate evil as stated in Pro. 8:13, "The fear of the Lord is to hate evil ." Job hated evil and he was perfect.

    A person must leave uprightness to fall and walk in darkness. Pro. 2:13, "Who leave the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness." Yes, a person must leave being upright to walk in the fallen state of sin.

    The story of Noah tells us that those in the Ark were Godly and those in the water were wicked. But you say there could be no one in the Ark, because all people are wicked.

    God gives us good advice, Pro. 4:14, "Enter not into the paths of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men." It is a choose.

    Brother Charls,

    Persecution from a partner is expected, like what our Lord Jesus said, because to them what you believe is foolishness. Lack of spiritual discernment is at the root of the problem. So be thankful to God, it is a signal to keep trusting God and grow your faith in Him.

    Forgive your partner and pray for him.
  • Charls. - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    for a time after it was as if God sat me down and wanted to show me lots of scripture etc

    Another time it was morning, I was awake but had not yet opened my eyes ...I literally heard a deep voice say

    " Jonah referred to jesus disciples as don Ultra"

    At least that's what it sounded like, very clearly spoken. I still don't really know what don Ultra means, a friend looked it up and said; extreme teacher. However I now know Jonah lived before jesus so not sure about the message at at all. Is it possible jesus lived in spirit before he came in physical form?

    Another time I literally had just the one word "indoctrinated" put into my mind, I'm embarrassed to say I didn't even know what it meant until I looked it up. I jumped out of bed literally to write it down before I forgot it. When i.looked it up I felt that God was trying to tell me he wanted me to tell others of my experiences so that they would believe in him too like I do. However I feel like I tried to On Facebook but no one was listening. Disheartened I gave up. Now I don't know if I've let God down which of course I don't want to do that.

    The last time I felt close to him it was as if he called me in Sabbath afternoon as had not thought of him since that morning, and it was as if he was letting me know he was there and as if I had a link to him through my sacral chakra lower stomach and stopped feeling ill feeling there.



    The last message I remember is he let me know his word is *alive* .

    I felt so alive like it's been the most amazing experience ever last yr I felt like I was dancing on air with God but my partner doesn't believe and I feel like I'm fighting the devil sometimes. I've literally had a cup fly out of my cupboard when I was talking to one if his brothers about God ...I feel sadness because I don't know if ....it's like my partner poured water on the sparkflame of the holy spirit and I don't want to lose God.

    Anyway one night I see a very bright light come to me ...I don't know if it was a false light or not... But I think it was only a few months later that my pentagram pendent fell off... I was wearing it for protection, I thought upright it was 'positive' I thought that it was only pointing downwards pentagram s that were demonic. Anyway it was not broken it was actually impossible that it could have come off...the first time it happened we were staying in a hotel and it just fell into my lap...There was a bible in the hotel room so I don't know if that had anything to do with it...someone's prayer maybe..? Anyhow the link was in tact as well as the thread...I was puzzled...anyhow so I put it back on initially. After we got home it happened two more times before I realised I was not meant to wear it. It was only when I was telling someone online in a Facebook forum about what happened and that I felt that God was telling me I didn't need to wear it for protection and that I was protected....the person I was telling informed me that if course that's what God was telling me because one of the ten commandments is "thy shall not wear any graven image" so if course I was like "really?" ...and looked it up. ....

    One night I heard like a tiny tornado outside and felt like I should go out there... I wish I had now I know about elijah...was it elijah? That got called up.in a whirlwind? I wouldn't want to go anywhere without my children though.

    Another night before I fell asleep I was thinking about how it would be impossible for me to get close enough to God to see him as I am ' just me.'.....but Just before I opened my eyes it was like I could see him right in front of me screwing his eyes up and shaking his head waving his arms about and saying " if you want to get close to God don't burn inscence!!! I detest it!!! Absolutely detest it"

    so I threw all my inscence in the bin.
  • Fred Scanlan - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    A seed cannot produce fruit unless it dies. The dying of a seed happens quickly, by itself? Whereas the dying of the sinful nature of man, may take a life time. Hearing Gods voice in His word, we are growing, while our flesh is dying, all during this time of maturation! Jesus teaches us what takes place during this time of "sanctification". Wisdom and knowledge are the fruits given by His grace , some 20 fold, some 30, some 60 sixty fold found in the redemption of Him through faith in the word! The spiritual freedom we receive is the revelation found in Him. Their is an enemy of a government of the ungodly, who envy and wish to terminate His words! These things we see happening all over the world! These are the tares, beware of the tares, they soon shall be taken away and burned!
  • Charls. - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    Robert Malit thank you so much for sharing yr testimony with me ! It's truly amazing stuff! Glory to God truly!!! It's such amazing stories which is why I think it is so difficult for some folk to believe but I believe...I believe too how amazing he is. It's so supernatural some people sadly do not understand.

    Steven Spencer thank you for your kind words. I feel like I have found true fellowship with you guys. I wonder if it's because my mum died when I was just 7 that he held my hand ...I remember I had a dream that my cat had her kittens on my bed and I see the blood and felt that cat and her kittens wriggling and everything....but when I awoke she was not there ...However the very next night she had her kittens on my bed exactly how I dreampt....I remember when I was a teenager I accidentally put my hand in the bubbling hot oil of the deep fat fryer yet it did not burn me ..it just felt like like warm water...I had not prayed and I remember feeling puzzled about it.

    Anyway fast forward to 2019 and I had trouble with a next door neighbor who was acting extremely antisocial towards me and I had this new age book called angelic protection. There was a picture of the parting of the red sea on the front cover which I knew was biblical. However looking back I feel so stupid and cross at my self for being so naive. There was writing and diagrams like in a circle and it said to look at the writing backwards. It said to picture angels sitting next to me either side of me, Since I have always been 'very sensitive ' and aware of the spirit world I could actually see what didn't look like angels at all but gross looking creatures which I can only guess we're demonic. I also see one wall through my kitchen when I was talking to a neighbor and it went out my door to next door neighborsgarden I had trouble with. I looked it up on the internet where it said it was a ' neutral ' spirit. I didn't like it at all and felt so deceived as I thought they were not angels at all.
  • Chris - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    Fornication is not the deciding sin which makes one a sinner or not. All whom you have mentioned, except Jesus, committed sin because they, like us, were born into sin. Romans 5:12: "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned". Not only has sin (specifically, the sin nature) been imputed to all coming into the world, but the fact that we all die (both physically & spiritually) confirms the fact that we are in the process of dying from the moment of our birth. The only reason that Jesus died physically was because He took on humanity & placed Himself in the easy reach of evil men, for the purpose of becoming man's only Way to Eternal Life.

    I have yet to meet a family who was able to raise children from birth to adulthood, having not committed sin. We don't need a "Christianity that will teach all people how to not fall", we need to be more vibrant & vigilant in sharing the Gospel to all that they may not fall into the pit of Hell.

    And 1 Corinthians 10:8 speaks about the 23,000 who 'DIED', not fell into sin. These were not 'upright' people at all - they were downright sinners altogether & were so judged.
  • Rod - In Reply on Hebrews 10 - 3 years ago
    Hi Alec, Sometimes the hardest people to forgive is ourselves, we know all too well our weakness and short comings, I haven't lived a life on drugs but can attest to a lot of short comings that I'm ashamed of and deserve the punishment of hell, but for as great a sinner that I am, I have a greater Savior that suffered on the cross for me, and all I need to do is repent and believe. When you look at the apostles, they spent three years with Jesus witnessing His preaching's and miracles, and yet when Judas betrayed Jesus, they were scattered, and Peter denied him three times. Just because we say that we're Christian and believe doesn't mean that we're not going to ever sin again, but when we do sin, we need to pray for forgiveness. I also believe that in times of doubt or weakness, that the Holy Spirit is there to comfort us and also to convict us through our conscience to keep us on the narrow road to the Cross. When you say you have the feeling of fear coming over you, maybe it's the Holy Spirit, telling you to come back to the Cross, count this as a blessing, because it sound like you're on the narrow road, and He wants to keep you there.

    May God bless you on your journey.

    Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:"

    Matthew 18:21 "Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?" Matthew 18:22 "Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven."

    Hi Marilyn, Sorry I think you gravely err There is no other Christianity and there is no other Gospel!! The way you present that anyone of the characters you mentioned could have been the unblemished lamb that take away the sins of the world right?
  • Marilyn Taplin - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 3 years ago
    Man is not evil from birth. Moses gave us two sets of Commandments and told us to teach them to our children and they will grow up and grow old and never depart from God. We are holy from birth and all people need to be taught how to remain holy. How can a person fall is they are not upright to begin with? How can a person depart from God if they are not with him to begin with? In 1 Cor. 10:8 we are told how we fall, "Neither let us commit fornication, as some...and fell in one day 23,000." They had to be upright before they fell. Many biblical characters are upright such as Noah, Job, Jacob, Jesus, and Abraham and others. They did not fall, because they did not commit fornication.

    We need a Christianity that will teach all people how to not fall. On my website I explain that more fully.

    How do we know what is true, and what is a lie? In a world full of lies, that represent one another's self interest and not the interest of all? After all, the weather channel does not always get it Right? The truth is, man is evil from his youth, there is nothing in him that is good! With these things in mind, where then should we be focused? Never put your confidence in man! Always look too the Cross knowing what you see their is real!!! Knowing all wisdom and knowledge will come from their! God is in control of all things. Satan 's desire is to deceive, it is the master of all lies! It has the ability to make things into light where there is none! The world is Satan's, He has no power more than God will give Him! As we get older, we become even more susceptible to his ways. Remember, strength is made perfect through weakness. The power we need will come through the holy spirit, this spirit is what you will need in the time of temptation!

    Hi Charls, I would like to give you My thoughts on You and your personal relationship with the Lord, I believe the LORD would like you to open up to him with confidence like you open up to us on this site, you don't have to use any of the prayers in the scripture, King David used his own prayers, he didn't use Abrahams or Noahs, or anybodys, A lot of these prayers in scriptures is to give us a picture of the relationship and how God deals with those who come to him on a personal level. but first we must know we need a savior pray to him for salvation, and present yourself a living sacrifice, get in his word and let him guide you.

    To Charls,

    through the leading prayers of our Beloved Evangelist Pastor Wilde E. Almeda, if it's your will our Lord Jesus "REVIVE OUR DEAD BRETHREN NOW, SHOW US YOUR WILL" then laid his hands on each of us, "while praying IN JESUS' NAME, CAST OUT THE EVIL SPIRIT OF DEATH IN JESUS' NAME!"

    Through the leading prayers of our Beloved Evangelist Pastor Wilde E. Almeda, our LORD JESUS instantly revived all three dead including myself.

    BY FAITH, DEAD CHILD BECAME ALIVE AGAIN

    We have a Bible Study in our local Muslim community, where our Beloved Preacher Robert Chua shouted loudly, preached that for those who believe in Jesus, even the dead shall rise again. Closed by was the beach where lots of kids played and swam. One child went missing, drowned, after an hour child's dead body was recovered.

    My uncle searched for my mother, and said, "where are all the Hallelujahs, they said even the dead shall become alive again, now show us." My mother became afraid, she went into her room and prayed, "our Lord Jesus, you helped and protected our Beloved Pastor from the Abu Sayaf, freed the hostages in Talipao, now Lord Jesus, show our uncle that you our Lord Jesus is our God and has power over all including death."

    Thereafter, my mother asked for the dead kid, and said, "our Beloved God, Lord and Savior Jesus, you protected our Beloved Pastor from death in the hands of the Abu Sayaf, now Lord, the God of both Muslims and Christians, on this day let this child live". And the child came alive again.

    CALL FOR RAIN

    After the bombing stopped, our Beloved Pastor fasted, told us to fast as well. He said there will be a miracle on the 3rd day. On that day, it was extremely hot, no water, all of us thirsty. All of a sudden, dark clouds started to gather over us, then a heavy down pour of rain, our loving God provided fresh rain water for us to drink, quenched our thirst.

    GOD RIVIVED THE DEAD = TESTIMONY OF BEL. SISTER RUBY LYNE HERNASIO

    In June 29, 1999, I was one of the victims of our Maluso Crusade bombing in Zamboanga City. Our venue is located adjacent to a Muslim Mosque. While we were singing praise songs, I heard a very loud explosion, thrown in our midst was an apple grenade spewed at least hundreds of shrapnel. On the spot 3 died, and 38 wounded brethren. One got hit in the eye through his head exposing his brain, who according to his testimony later his spirit left his body, went face to face with our Lord Jesus in heaven, said "Lord I want to stay here, where there is no problems, just complete happiness, on earth all sorts of problems, poverty and strife.

    I could hear and see what was happening but couldn't move. Then one Preacher came to me, laid hands on my shoulder, prayed to our Lord Jesus and I regained my normal self instantly. It was then I run over to sister Ruby Lyne Hernasio, saw her eyeball out, aired swollen like an egg. Our Lord Jesus' voice in my head said "Hallelujah, Praise the Lord" and I followed his command, as I handled her eyeball pushing it back into her eye socket I was saying "Hallelujah, Praise the Lord". I didn't notice, that through our Lord Jesus help I successfully abled to push her eyeball back in place.



    Thereafter, I collapsed, all the dead myself included were placed on the stage side by side. It was then one of our ordained Preacher prayed, raised his hands, asked "God for forgiveness for our sins, to forgive each of us of our sins, through the leading prayers of our Beloved Evangelist Pastor Wilde E.

    TESTIMONY OF OUR BELOVED EVANGELIST & 12 PRAYER WARRIORS

    Our Beloved & Honorable Evangelist Pastor Prophet Wilde Estrada Almeda has been anointed by God to lead JMCIM Talipao Peace Mission to free the 21 hostages in September 2000. I personally witnessed with my own eyes the great supernatural power of our Lord Jesus Christ, has proven to the whole world that we have a true Prophet in this ministry JMCIM.

    I was told to take video recordings of our entire mission in Talipao, Zulu. As our Beloved Pastor was preaching the gospel to the Abu Sayaf in their Camp, they were extremely offended, in raging anger shouted for our Beloved Pastor to stop. Our Pastor won't stop.

    So, they fired their weapons at our Beloved Pastor, their guns failed to fire. Amazingly puzzled, they aimed their guns up in the air, flawlessly fire. At that, they aimed and fire again at our Beloved Pastor, all there was clicking sound was heard, but failed to fire. One Abu Sayaf got his Machine Gun with bullets carried on his shoulder, dropped on prone position, aimed and fired at our Beloved Pastor, his gun failed to fire, repeated press on the trigger produced only clicking sounds. The awesome power of God rendered their weapons useless.

    So, one Abu Sayaf pulled a large sharp beheading knife to kill one of us. Our Beloved Pastor came towards him and rebuked him, IN THE NAME OF JESUS, BE FROZEN!!! Instantly, he was frozen.

    The following day, early in the morning, before the Cocks crow, the Abu Sayaf were firing their gun up in the air, suspected that we are Military men in disguise. One Abu Sayaf with .45 Caliber Pistol aimed at our Beloved Pastor and fired. I witnessed flames coming out of the gun's barrel, but when bullets hit I saw puffs of dust but none of the bullets penetrated the body of our Beloved Pastor.

    To Charls,

    In 2012, my daughter who was pregnant passed out, brought to the hospital. Upon examination, one artery in cervical area of her neck raptured which left her comatose. Furthermore, her unborn child died in her womb. My son-in-law requested that I must go to the hospital, my daughter was dead.

    So, I knelt down on my knees, crying, pleading to God, to our Lord Jesus, to revive my daughter and baby so she could continue serving God. Early that morning, I arrived, my son-in-law told me that my daughter was uncontrollably upset. I thought to myself, Lord God my daughter is alive.

    We were told my daughter must have emergency surgery to get the dead unborn child from her womb. We continue to pray, praised God, my faith is God's will be done. Shortly after getting in the operating room, one nurse came out, told us to get baby's clothing ready. I thought to myself, God the baby is alive. Today, here is my beloved daughter and her baby, my granddaughter is 5 years old now.

    TESTIMONY OF AN ARMY PHYSICIAN

    In September 2003, after God healed me I was at a Bible Study in Malinta, my barber called, "Sir, go home, your wife was dead on arrival in the hospital. I said, I don't believe this, our loving GOD in JMCIM is alive. I prayed, then left in peace without urgency. At 7pm upon my arrival at Fort Bonifacio Hospital, Dr. Silain said to me, "Are you crazy? All you can say is Hallelujah Praise the Lord. So, I told my fellow doctors at the hospital, since I joined JMCIM, I get to know my loving GOD is alive, my God will revive my wife. I told them my loving God in JMCIM will heal and revive my wife. They all laughed sarcastically at me in insulting gesture. So, I signed a waiver to take my wife home. Upon getting home, I prayed, sung songs of praises to our loving God. After a few songs, I noticed my wife's skin turned yellowish, then turned pink, then moved, then turned redden, woke up and spoke, asking for noodles to eat.

    Hi Charls,

    If you want God to heal you of many diseases, and your family, even the impossible to heal, visit my group in Facebook. Check out "What Does It Mean To Be A Born Again Christian?"

    PAUL HEALED THE SICK

    Acts 28:8 Context 8And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on him, and healed him. 9So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed:

    YES, IT HAPPENED THEN, BUT COULD THIS HAPPEN TODAY 2021 BEYOND?

    With the leading prayers of our Beloved Evangelist Pastor Wilde E. Almeda, the end-time prophet of God, these are just some of God's miracles in our church:

    TESTIMONY OF A POLICE OFFICER

    In 1993, I was diagnosed with Psoraisis that led to paralysis can't stand nor walk. I went to many different doctors but without success.

    I met someone who told me our God heals all sorts of diseases - cancer, leprosy, etc. I thought I will try, go and see, I had nothing to lose. I got in Amoranto, Quezon City, where I got baptized, I was intantly healed of my paralysis, gradual healing of my psoriasis. I also had a legal problem, I got sued by a Colonel due to improperly saluting him. Our Beloved Pastor learned of my law suit, he told me to fast and pray for 10 days. So I did, on my 3rd day of fasting, I received news the Colonel got terminated from his position.

    In 1996, one of the worker, while waiting for a bus, someone snatched his bag, when he opened the bag, found holy Bible, no money inside, he became extremely mad, with his .45 caliber pistol shot our brother in the chest, the impact pushed him backward fell about 3 feet, in seconds rose waving his hands loudly saying Hallelujah, Praise the Lord. Our Lord instantly healed him. The Holdaper fired at him the 2nd time, his gun failed to fire, got scared and run away.

    "If you care about having committed the unforgivable sin, you probably haven't."

    I at one point in my life when I was a young man thought I may have committed this sin. I sought scriptures on it , I sought people to explain to me what it actually was. I was in a phycological hell for a time. Until I read a piece on what the unpardonable sin really was. The man who wrote said what I just quoted. The unpardonable sin, he said, was total disregard for the things of God especially if one knows the will of God and has rejected all. Then you die in your sin without the saving Grace that is called the Gift of God. ( Ephesians 2:8)

    If you CARE about having done such a thing points to want to repent . And sorrow that one may have committed it. The person who does not care will not have such a conviction. Because the Unpardonable sin is ignoring the Love of God and the conscience is seared. Faith cannot be restored by such an individual.

    Hi Charls,

    As Christian, start your prayer by confessing your sins to God, and repent. Bow down to bring honor, praises, and glory to God - our Lord Jesus. Then, cast out evil spirit, evil thoughts in Jesus' name!!! And proceed to Psalms 23.

    Try Psalms 23:4 Context

    1(A Psalm of David.) The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
