Discuss Galatians 6 Page 7

I think 'people thought' Jesus should give preference or deference to his mother and his disciples.

So Jesus asked the people, who is my mother and my brethern! For whosoever shall do the will of the Father, which is in heaven, the same is my brother and sister, and mother.

God's Family is expected to behave differently from how we treat our human family...not. We are to become more like Jesus every day. Esteem others....

Friend, Romans is a great book to read every day. It's not that big. You gotta go there to be user friendly to the unsaved. (My own thought).

I really want ot understand god and jesus but i dont understand is jesus god? how do i hear god ? does god talk to us or the holy sprit? can you please refernce me to scriputres. which is the best version of the bible to read? thank you

As soon as we die, will we immediately be judged? Hallelujah and praise the Lord JESUS!!

I'm sorry Bob. I hadn't read all the way down about food issues.

Eating raw or undercooked pork can expose us to trichinosis. Worms. In those days of history there was no refrigeration. God was protecting his people. If the freshly killed pork was drained of blood and then roasted properly..it could be eaten with prayer. There's info on how Temple priests killed and prepared animals for sacrifice.

:D anybody for sushi?

I agree with Bob, it wasn't Herod.

I would just add that Jesus was brought before Caiaphas to be prosecuted. And once the sentence was passed, He was sent to Pontius Pilate.

Pilate was the Roman governor and head of the entire area for the Roman government. The Roman government was the only official agency that could pronounce the death sentence on someone.

The Jews were not allowed to pass the death sentence, especially crucifixion. So they brought Jesus to Pilate so that Pilate could give the death sentence.

Laura per the Bible Herod did not have Jesus killed. Pilate tried to release Jesus.

John 19:12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar. (Pilate was threatened with treason if he let Jesus go free)

Paul in 1 Thessalonians 2:14 -16 - For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, EVEN AS THEY HAVE OF THE JEWS: WHO BOTH KILLED THE LORD JESUS, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and THEY PLEASE NOT GOD, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: FOR THE WRATH IS COME UPON THEM TO THE UTTERMOST.

was herrod the one who had Jesus crucified?

Ann - this is my take and others might disagree.

1. David had faith and stood on the promises of the Lord. (like with Goliath) He knew the Lord gave them the land

2. He repented at his own sin and shortcomings. (Bathsheba)

1 Samuel 17:26 And David spake to the men that stood by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and taketh away the reproach from Israel for who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God

Read 2 Samuel 12

13 And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die. (Jesus warned us to repent many times)

Why was David called a man after God's own heart. Was it humility. Was it obedience, what was it. Scriptures to back it up

That's a wonderful testimony, Gina. "Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit, saith the LORD of Hosts" ( Zech 4:6). This verse reminds us that when we come to the end of ourselves and all seems hopeless in life, it can only be the Lord of Glory Who intervenes, and His Christ, Who intercedes on our behalf. You have rightly given Him all the Glory. Walk on in faith and in the Power of the Lord.

Acts can be typed in the search, or found through the book selector: Link

I don't see Acts?

Words can not express the gratitude I have for my LORD and savior . I was so lost and always knew he was there but it wasn't until the last four years in my darkest times , I poured my heart and soul out to him . He literally saved my life . No one in this world could understand the emotions I was going through or help me except Christ . To this day I give thanks for everything in my life he has blessed me with and more . Every single day I do the same and pray for others hoping they will feel the same salvation . GOD is good!

If your remark is of a general nature & not tied to a thread here, then please remember we are Christians, ordinary people, who love the Lord Jesus and give testimony to His Love and Saving Grace. Not everyone can be articulate or well-informed, as maybe you are, but the Scripture has declared, "But God chose the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty" ( 1Cor 1:26,27). We might be simple, misguided people in the eyes of the world, but content to be precious in God's Eyes as we endeavour to live for Him & speak of His Goodness in whatever way we can.

People can also get audio of the KJV for free, for example on this website. Someone can load it on their smart phone and just play the audio of any chapter they want to hear.

I suggest the King James Bible on CD with Alexander Scourby as the narrator as he has a great voice. It can be had for the new testament only for about 25 dollars delivered. Pay attention to who is being persecuted for Christ and by whom are doing the persecution. It will likely be the same as it was in the days of Christ. Persecution is coming people and has been in the works for a long time. 10 of the 12 apostles died for their faith. Paul died for his faith and stephen did also.
Jesus died for you, would you die for him?

Revelation 14:13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, ...

Everyone please turn off the TV and read or listen to the Bible. One can buy the KJV new testament on CD for about 25 dollars us delivered. Listen to it while working or driving. James 1 says if any of you lack understand let him ask of God.
Seriously ask the Lord to reveal things to you and dig. Hit the thrift stores and buy some bibles as some day they shall likely be illegal. There are places now where the new testament is considered hate speech. The Lord is not happy with Europe and the USA and judgment is coming. Persecution is promised to those who follow Christ in 2 Timothy 3:12
Persecution shall separate the sheep from the goats and shall bring revival to the true remnant of Christ

I apologize. I just wish we could join hands and kick corona virus in the teeth with our faith. On Passover the Jews put lambs blood over the door so death (corona virus) would pass over the house. Jesus gives us power to stand against the enemies that would end us. Feed your faith, beloveds.

Before I was rescued to salvation, I studied stars, planets, sun, moon: trying to explain why things were as they were. Trying to project into future.
You are tuned into MEDIA news, Facebook, Twitter geniuses,Pharisees and politicians.
JESUS said I am the way, the TRUTH and the LIFE. Listen to Him!!! You're being led away.. Either you are in Jesus or not. Stop starving your spirit to death. You may be in the process of FALLING AWAY. He didn't promise us smooth sailing. We are hid in him. Slap on the jumper cables and restart your hearts. Walk up to the Goliath of your souls & launch the rock that explodes his brain. Feed on the Word. Bulk up! Turn off pathetic news. Jesus is the King!

I feel like Spock. A lot of comments are illogical, imaginary and not backed up with scripture.

The babes and sucklings Jesus mentions are SPIRITS TH H.G. plural,Thats y he is saying unless you receive th kingdom as a lil Child etc impling a birth. A lil one shall become a 1000 and a small one a strong nation,I the lord will hasten it in its time, these are the ISREAL OF GOD that are gonna be born in US via the seed of Christ A heavenly JACOB, ISAIAH says i will bring JACOB BACK AGAIN IN TH LAST DAYS WHICH IS THE H.G. TH 3 RD PERSON OF THE KINGDOM the Israel of God which is the multiplication of very God via the seed of Christ.Jesus was the 1st born of many brethren impling an Israel of God.When God told Moses his Name was abraham issac and jacob he was impling an Israel of God Coming.

That promise to abraham about multiplication resulted in the nation of israel. but natural israel were not the children of promise,god found fault with israel,there was none righteous no not one.god had another israel in mind that wd come outta of his own body christ jesus the very seed of god the living word of god that wd initiate a birth of christ in us, the son of man which is the h.g. that has to born in us via his seed .thats y he is saying that which is born of the spirit ( his word ) is spirit thats th h.g th israel of god that promise child, the h.g comes out of christ loins his seed his word etc. now we see an israel of god a holy nation a kingdom ppl born in humanity via hs word.

As far as burden carrying: there is an escape to burdens. Jesus said to cast those upon Him.
Read these following scriptures. It's going to help you. Did you know worry is sin? Run to 1 John chapter 1 verses 8-9; 2:1

Here's the burden scriptures: Matthew 11:28-29. Psalms 62:8. Philippians 4:6 and Galatians 6:5

I found this to be true that when we are in extreme crushed mode, it's time to fast and pray. Fast from fun and feed on the Word of God. It's more painful than you think. Turn off all media. Emergency calls only. Read the New Testament. Get a pencil and mark some verses that give you peace. Repent as needed. In Church they say fast from food, Feed on the Word of God.

John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

Matthew 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

Whether we believe it or not, we are all writing the history of the lives we are living on this side earth in the "Chronicles" of God and we are going to give an account of that history before God one day in the day of judgment. After the account come rewards accordingly as stewards of God. Furthermore, compare this fact with Matthew 12:36,2Corinthians5:10, Galatians 6:7, Revelation 22:11-12.

They say Laugh and the World Laughs with you, Cry and you Cry alone but Jesus tells us the Opposite. He Cares and Understands. He was known as a Man of Sorrows and acquainted with Grief and He cried too. Like His Father He Loved everyone but knew those who would be lost. What does God tell us to do when others are hurting- Romans12:15 - Galatians 6:2 - 1Peter 3:8 -5 - Ephesians 4:32 - Ecc 3:1-8.

Galatians 6:10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

Apparent seeming real or true but not so... is correct. The Bible is not indicating that we lay down all our weight and burden and wait for another to lift them up. we all take our issues tan burdens to God and we help each others to carry their load. its a team effort that is depicted here. A picture of helping each other.

If a person is despondent it is sometimes caused by idleness not keeping busy with others one of the best ways to overcome is prayer and helping others..When we help and do good for others we take our minds off ourselves. Galatians 6:2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
