What a good prayer for GODS chosen elect to ask of the MOST HIGH - Verse 25 - Pour out thy fury upon the heathen that know thee not, and upon the families that call not on thy name: for they have eaten up Jacob, and devoured him, and consumed him, and have made his habitation desolate.
Deuteronomy 12:30-31 "...How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise. Thou shalt not do so unto the Lord thy God..."
God said do not do as the heathen. These so called Christian holidays are ALL pagan in origin and true Christians do not celebrate them. It takes very little effort to discover where they came from.
We Shine in The Midst of a Crooked and Perverse World( Philippians 2:15) Come Out from Among Them and be Ye Separate( 2Corinthians 6:17) All this Week Churches Had a Celebration honoring Christ.(halloween)Christmas,Singing to Trees, telling Kids Santa Knows who's Good.I Asked is this Right.They Said No,But it's Fun and The Kids like it. Study His Word it Flat-out Says,Things of The World are Sinful.
I don't understand about holidays vs religion and holidays vs the bible and holidays vs what is right and what is wrong. god does not flat out say you are a sinner if you celebrate holidays. if so where is this in the bible. it is not clear that God say this is a sin. I think people due to beliefs interpret the bible differently. thank you for this site it is enjoyable to me
"He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion." What a magnificent Word is this! Man doesn't need proof of God's divine power and understanding and will never learn the truth of anything that He has made by all their study and learning. He gives knowledge and understanding to the simple who love and obey Him.
Genesis 2:16-17 tells me man has freewill. Its our choice to accept God/Jesus or to deny him. Vs 23 is saying we all need God to direct out lives because it is not in us to understand how too. Sadly so many think they can direct their own lives without the Lord to help guide them and look how they turn out. We all need the Lord but so many do not see that. Myself with my freewill I choose my GOD.
A reply to the comment;"God gives men free will to serve him or not, We have power OVER Him" In context Jeremiah 10:21-24;Verse 23, "O Lord I know that the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man who walketh to direct his steps." The "way of man"=freewill. "Not in himself"=man does NOT have freewill. NOT in man to direct his own steps=man does not have freewill. "Power over Him" REALLY???
Verse 6 shows that there is no god like the true God. Jehovah God has no equal or comparison and it was in vain that the Israelites set up man-made gods that brought them no benefit or help.
Verse 23 helps us to see that humans cannot have success without Jehovah God guidance. It's important that we show humility and always go to him for help and guidance.
This passage or chapter is clearly telling the true Israelites not to celebrate Christmas and not to disobey the Almighty Yahuah. If people really do their research about all of these pagan holidays (Thanks killing day, Easter and others) they will find out the truth. But a lot of people wanna stay spiritually dead because they wanna keep following these man-made traditions.
When we read this and understand, but still continue to have a Christmas TREE and all that silver and gold, you/me/us must know we are sinners before God. The Bible is a book of rules we must follow before we die. Get your life together. Blessing to you!
Lu2677, I can come up with nothing but must teach that which my heavenly Father gives me, lest I lean on my own understanding. Be blessed. Amen John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. Jeremiah 10:8 But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities. Revelation 17:5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Ann, I posted correction for my comment, hell was prepared for the devil.
Read Luke 12:4-5. This is Jesus warning, do you not believe him? He says he sends people to hell. Jeremiah 10:23 "O Lord I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his path." Does this tell us we do not have free will? There are many more verse for this.
The context of Proverbs 16:9 is not marriage or searching for true love after divorce. As one person wrote. Proverbs 16:1 "The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the Lord." Jeremiah 10:23 "O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.":Yea also the heart of the sons o men is full of evil, and madness is in their heart while they live, and after that they go to the dead." Proverbs 30:6 "Add thou not unto his word lest he reprove thee and thou be found a liar." Also read Proverbs 3:5-7
Jeremiah 10:2 For the pastors are become brutish, and have not sought the LORD: therefore they shall not prosper, and all their flocks shall be scattered. 23:1 Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the LORD. 23:31 Behold, I am against the prophets, saith the LORD, that use their tongues, and say, He saith.
from verses 19-25 is actually talking about those who disobey Gods command and do not obey him, that he God is going to mete out his judgement upon them. but those who obey his command will be spared.
PROVERBS 20:24 COMMENTS 4 26 2015 11:58 PM This verse is a various people of moral virtues, and their counter vices. JEREMIAH 10:23ROMANS 8:26. Thank you Lord for teach and lead us unto your path and have a salvation for our soul. A-men.
The Church will be taken out before the tribulation happens. Those fascinated with these signs will be deceived. The Christian is to walk by the Bible 2 Corinthians 5:7 For we walk by faith, not by sight: Look at what the Bible says, Jeremiah 10:2 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven for the heathen are dismayed at them. The Christian is not looking for signs like the Jews 1 Corinthians 1:22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: The church will see tribulations which are hard times but not the wrath of the tribulation Revelation 6:17 For the great day of his wrath is come and who shall be able to stand? Look here 1 Thessalonians 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ. The Antichrist prevails against saints in the tribulation Daniel 7:21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them but not the church Matthew 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Look for Jesus Christ to come for His church any minute not the signs for the Jews. Have a nice day.
Verses 23 24 show me that my efforts to do better will always fail. It is God 's strength and direction I need to plead for. I find these verses very consoling.
PSALMS CHAPTER 96 1 15 15 6:17 In v5 For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens. As what said in JEREMIAH 10:10-12 1 TIMOTHY 6:17. For the Lord is a living God, we must ADORE AND PRAISE HIM. A-men and A-men.
God said do not do as the heathen. These so called Christian holidays are ALL pagan in origin and true Christians do not celebrate them. It takes very little effort to discover where they came from.
24 O LORD, correct me, but with judgment; not in thine anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.
way. The LORD wants to be worshiped in Spirit
God's thoughts are higher than our thoughts. Amen.
