Discuss John 3 Page 38

Hi Dianne,

Are you sure that it was Nicodemus who begged for the body of Jesus, or was it Joseph of Arimathea?

Also, something I would like to share with you from my studies, for whatever it might be worth. The Jews did not embalm back then. What they would do is they would put various ointments and spices (fragrant spices) on a dead body to keep the odor down as the body decomposed. They would put this fragrant spice on the body, wrap the body some, add more spice, and then finish wrapping.

Thought you might find this interesting!

Thanks I meant to say according to Luke 23:55+56 they brought spices an ointments, thanhs or terminology correction.

Jesus was not embalmed

William Through Jesus Christ almost any of mans condition can be changed by believing His Word. Believings the Key to heaven and Jesus Christ is the Door and Great Shepherd and He Healer. John 3:16.

Romans 8:28-39 gets inspirational also, 2 Peter 1:1-8, also 1 John 3:1+2 Let the Word do the Work.

Dear Trigo,

Prayer is POWERFUL Your prayers can be instrumental in your parents being born-again and the healing of their bodies.

SALVATION - John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. Romans 10:9-10 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Confess your sins to Jesus Christ, repent, and believe in your heart that he has saved you. He will give you a new heart and a new life in Him. Ezekiel 36:26 "A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh."

HEALING - I've had miracles in my own life. Almost four years ago, I couldn't walk due to an illness. Friends and family prayed. And not long after, I just got up and walked. My great-nephew was so sick in the womb that doctors advised abortion, but his mother refused. Family and friends prayed. And the symptoms left that child. And he was born healthy and thrives today at four years old. God is on the throne. He hears prayer. God can heal immediately Matthew 8:13 or after a period of time Mark 5:5. Remember, Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. What He did while He walked the earth, he can do sitting at the right hand of God in Heaven. God bless.

Ted The bible doesn't say but I'd like to believe he was because He begged for the body and put it in a fresh tomb. Also when you work Gods word closely He just wrapped in cloth others came by later and embalmed Him so that's an indication He believed he was going to raise from the dead, whats really interesting is all the disciples walked away and one betrayed Him all scattered. When it comes to the Gospels you have to be very careful sequence of events.

Was Nicodemus ever saved . Regards Ted

The "Let Us", or the Godhead speaking together. I have all these underlined in my Bible.

The Scriptures about the Godhead. Sometimes called "Let Us..." in some passages. These scriptures are evidence of all 3 persons of the Godhead speaking to each other.

Genesis 1:26, 3:22, 11:7

Isaiah 6:8

Romans 1:20

Colossians 2:9

Acts 17:27-30

1 John 5:7

John 10:30

"For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and GODHEAD so that they are without excuse:"

Genesis 1:1

The Father purposes

The Word (Jesus) speaks. ( John 1:1)

The Spirit (Holy Spirit) executes the spoken word. Action.

All working together. Jesus came to show us the Father, as Emmanuel.

Matthew 1:23

"Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us."

Jesus came to bring to each born again believer; the baptism and the in-dwelling of the Holy Spirit.

[ Genesis 1:2, John 3:6, Acts 2:1-3, John 16: 7-15]

Hello Nelvan. From the Bible, we understand that before Jesus came to Earth as a Man, He was in Heaven, within the Godhead, as the Word of God (see John 1:1-4,14). God has chosen to express Himself to us as the Almighty God from Whom proceeds His Word & His Spirit - just one God in His Fulness ( 1 John 5:7).

"Can God die?" No, God is Spirit, He cannot die and none in the spirit realm can die since no physical body is present. One day we will die because our aging bodies must perish. But our spirits which cannot die, will return to God ( Ecclesiastes 12:7).

But Jesus died, because God chose to send forth His Word to us a sinful people. And that Word became flesh ( John 1:14) & He was named Jesus ( Matthew 1:21-25), so that the people not only had God's final Word to them coming in human form ( John 8:42,43), but He also came as a man for the "suffering of death" ( Hebrews 2:9), that He should "taste death for every man". And this, Jesus did for us, so that when we believe on Him, confessing our sins, God will forgive us & accept us, only because He accepted His Son's death as a full & complete payment for our sins ( John 3:16-18).

So God Who is Spirit cannot die, but when He sent His Word to become a man, then yes, God did give us His life for us. But as you may know, the account doesn't end there: Jesus arose from death & the grave, ascended to Heaven in His glorified body & is seated now at God's right Hand where His Testimony is ever present before all in Heaven & Earth ( Hebrews 10:12; 7:25) - God's sacrificial Lamb Who was once slain and is now the only reason for our acceptance by God.

Hello! Sorry to hear about your husband. Matthew 4:24 "And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them."

First, if he hasn't already, he needs to go to the doctor for antibiotics and ear drops. Second, here's something that relieved my pain when I had a toothache. I got it from a woman who used it for her little boy when he had the earache.

1. Wet a washcloth in super hot water and wring it out.

2. Put the washcloth in a mug and then put the mug in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds

3. Have your husband put the cup near or over his ear, being careful not to let the hot washcloth touch his skin. This will relieve the pain and drain the pus inside the ear.

4. Repeat until the earache is gone.

Remember, this home remedy is not to be used in place of going to the doctor for infection can linger without pain and lead to worse conditions.

God bless.

John 3:16 - 18; Romans 10:9-10

Elijah , every time you read your Bible you are hearing God's voice to you , you personally , specifically , He is looking at and listening to you always , He gave us the Bible for the purpose of bringing us closer to Him , He wants you in His Kingdom , keep reading and you will feel His love more and more .

i never seen nor heard God....no vision or dream to confirm it was Him....no feeling or expirience to be absolutely sure it was Him ,but solely by scripture do i know the God of Abraham n Moses n Jesus......u may think thats not enough for u to believe Him but it has kept me from many lies as it is the foundation of belief:scriptures.....may the rewards of ur kindness follow u in goodness n may u love like God loves.....

Hi Sister Dianne.

There may be minor error in the text some is because of translation, I can give you an often used verse that's not in the original, But the verse is correct and doesn't change the narrative. The truth is not compromised!! You can discard John 3:16. out the bible and the remaining scripture will cover for it. God message is spread a little hear a little there, line upon line. The Holyspirit have his way of bringing out truth if he had only one word remaining!!! The rocks will cry out. Balaams donkey spoke!! God is not depending Mans faithfulness to do anything!!

Besides we say he Loves us, We say he's all knowing, We're saved by grace through faith and faith comes by hearing the word.

Why would loving God stand by and watch little feeble man derail his Whole program!!

If so Satan wins.

Every thing I mentioned is being attacked.

We know we wrestle not against flesh and blood but what's behind it. She need to Know that too. We are to take a stand!

Jesus says in Matthew 12:30. He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.

You can't be with the Lord and attack hi word by which we gather.

She must turn from such attacks and ask God for forgiveness.

God bless.

Trudy, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

He who is born of the flesh is flesh, he who is born of the Spirit is SPIRIT.

Does SPIRIT need clothes, streets to walk on, houses with rooms to live in, windows to look out of, doors to go through, sun to give light, food to eat, water to drink.

Behold all things have become NEW.

You want exist as you do NOW.

You become the LIKENESS OF CHRIST (fullness of Deity), who only hath immortality (life with no end).

Ephesians 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and the knowledge of the Son of God,unto a perfect man, unto the measure and stature of the FULLNESS OF CHRIST.

Ephesians 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be FILLED WITH ALL THE FULLNESS OF GOD.

Which is his body, the FULLNESS of him that filleth all in all.

Colossians 1:29 For in him dwelleth all the FULLNESS of the Godhead bodily.

Colossians 1:27 ...this mystery...CHRIST IN YOU....

John 3:13 No man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of Man which is in heaven (CHRIST IN YOU).

Luke 17:21 .....THE kingdom of GOD is WITHIN YOU.

Revelation 21:1 You are the NEW HEAVEN

Thanks for letting me know about this and like you i believe jesus spoke all the way to 21 as well !!!!!! god bless you an thanks again!!!!

Hi Chuck. Do you remember which Bible version that your Sunday School teacher was using at the time; or which one you & the other kids were using? I think the problem stems from how the translators view this portion of Scripture. So your teacher could have told you that all of John 3:16-21 were not Jesus' Words but John's own words - that Jesus' Words ended at verse 15. My guess is that he/she was using one of these versions: the NIV, NET or GNT Bibles; & there could be others too that could be added to that list which show that the Lord's Words ended at verse 15.

However, most translators believe & have included quotation marks all the way from John 3:10-21, believing that this was a complete discourse given to Nicodemus by Jesus only. I believe this to be correct, as the Gospels were written by these four men as they recalled Jesus' Words, travels, encounters with other people, etc., & not to give their own understanding/impressions of spiritual Truth. When we go to the Epistles (e.g. 1, 2, 3 John), then we begin to see their personal teaching to believers based on their own experiences with Jesus, what they learnt from Him & the direction of the indwelling Holy Spirit to pen these letters.

So brother, even though the KJV, & a few others, don't use quotation marks (according to their absence in the original texts), I believe that if they did, then they would include the whole passage from John 3:10-21 as Jesus' Words to Nicodemus. I hope this helps you.

As i have read the ot an new !!!!! it came to me jesus spoke an said that that only 2 law's were needed.to fulfill all!!!!!! 1st love god with all your heart might an soul!!!!! 2nd love your neighbor as yourself !!!!!!! why's this important because reading into the ot that god got very angry with the israeli people when they fell away or disornored god or forgot to giving thanks an remembering god 1st !!!!!!!! because as soon as a profit reminded israel of there sinfulness an to asking for god's great gracious forgiveness an supernatural love by honoring god's 1st commandments because even one statement in the law's giving in more details says for i am a jellous god !!!!! god's love for the world is so great that he sent his only son so that through him the whole world maybe saved!!!!!! an the cost was so much an great that god's remind us he is 1st not money as we found after 911 the country and even ny city treatment of there fellow neighbor an the whole country came to relationship with each other an god !!!! which sometimes something so terrible happened an something so good from our past selfishness stopped an we were looking to helping others after such a tragic event!!!!! as like jesus suffering an died was tragic but through him forgiveness to all whom ask an believe in him !!!!! for jesus overcome,sin, death an punishment for the whole world !!!!!! an the bible even stated that god's love is so great that he doesn't want to lose anyone !!!!! just as jesus spoke the good shepherd leaving 99 that are safe an looking for the ones lost !!!!!!!! in god we trust an should ask forgiveness an then honor him with praise !!!!!!! and as stated that if we as a people confess our sinfulness and our evil ways an in asking for his help in turning back from our evil ways an asking for his great forgiveness an mercy he will hear our prayers frm heaven an heal our land an not only our land but our whole people as well !!!!!! in the great name of jesus our lord amen !!!!!!!!

As i read the whole chapter 3. i wanted to know if this is correct that jesus spoke directly in verses 3,5-8,10-12 because really i think i was told by a sunday school class teacher when i was alot younger that parts of 3:16 was john's interpretation an not sure that jesus spoke this great verses

3:15-21!!!!! as i read it today i feel like jesus spoke allot about this an that john's chapter 3 remembered about all that because the helper the holy gost brought all this back to his reminded as well as nicodemus whom i would surely think meet with some if not all of the disciples after the resurrection of jesus christ our lord an discuss with them events as john was the disciple whom it stated jesus loved

!!!!!!!

Sister Dianne.

What comes out the mouth comes from the heart,

The Gospel is meant to share not store up to ourselves.

We need to take ownership.

Here is two verses I will attempt to draw a picture of the way we "play Christianity"

Consider these two verses in 1 John and James. next the other posted scriptures and then I will explain where we need to take ownership. So please bare with me.

1 John 3:17. and James 2:15-16.

Luke 19:10. For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

2 Corinthians 5:15. And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.

Matthew 5:14-15. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

Ephesians 2:10. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

I'm sure we're familiar with the slothful servant in the parable in

Luke 19:20-26.

NOW YO MY POINT.

We complain so much especially here in the US of America. about the spiritual decay and gross sin dating back to Slavery!! AND ALL THAT MATTERS IS WE HAVE THE GOSPEL STORED IN OUR HEART. Brother and Sisters getting it out undefiled should be top priority to the lost. In a way it parallels with the examples presented in

1 John 3:17. and James 2:15-16.

It's so much we all can do together if what's in our heart generated work rather a SHOW of Holiness.

WHAT'S THE POINT REASONING SCRIPTURE TO SOMEONE ABSENT OF THE SPIRIT?

THEY NEED IN THEM WHAT'S WORKING IN US!!

1 Corinthians 2:14. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Love is not hiding the Gospel it's presenting it.

God bless.

Ray You are in need of total change of focus mentally, In the old testament He sent His word and healed them and delivered them from their fears. Change your head change your life. Scriptures are light and life. Here's a few 2 Timothy 1:7, 2 Peter 2:24, John 14:12-14, also you must act on what the word of God says we have been given. I.E. Romans 5:1-9, Romans 8:28-39, 1 John 3:1+2, 1 John 3:20-22, 2 Peter 1:1-8, never focus the negative. Remember what you have been given was and is Gods good pleasure, and it blessed Him because He desired a family us, Ephesians 1: 1-11, so there get the light of the word in. I'll be praying for you.

Part 2.

Wiles of the Devil.

THE GOSPEL IS WHAT SAVES!! That's where you start, spiritual growth comes afterward as you feed on the word, providing that the word you received is truth and you believe it. Your viewpoints should be shaped in this transaction. Spiritual fruit, unity, and gifts comes alone in the process. ALL WRAPPED IN LOVED. Unless you are a reprobate. 2 Corinthians 13:5.

THERE IS THE KEY!

1 JOHN 3:10. In this the children of God are "MANIFEST", and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, NEITHER HE THAT LOVETH NOT HIS BROTHER.

IF YOU DONT CHRIST IS NOT IN YOU!

1 Corinthians 3:23-24. And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.

KEEP IN MIND THIS POST IS TO EXAMINE OURSELVES. MARK THOSE WHO ARE AGAINST THE FAITH, AND NOT ASSIST SATAN IN HIS WILES. BY MEASURING THE LOVE BETWEEN ONEANOTHER.

1 John 2:19. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, THAT THEY MIGHT BE MADE MANIFEST THAT THEY WERE NOT ALL OF US.

Some persecute directly, some indirectly, SOME BEFRIEND EVERY PERSECUTER COME ON THE SITE!

John 15:17-20. These things I command you, that ye love one another.

If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

PERSECUTION

THIS IS WITHIN OUR MIDST!

BE CAREFUL OF WHO YOU GIVE GOD SPEED TO!

GOD BLESS

Are you a born-again Christian? That is, have you confessed your sins, repented, and asked Jesus Christ to come into your heart? Because having Jesus Christ as your personal Savior is the most important and the thing you can ever possess. Mark 8:36 "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" What a pity it would be for you to get 1 Trillion dollars each day and die without Christ and go to hell.

But you can be saved. God loves you. Jeremiah 1:5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you." He sent His only Son to die for you John 3:16-18 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." But it's not enough to believe in your head. You must believe in your heart. Romans 10:9-10 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Confess your sins to Jesus Christ, repent, and believe in your heart that he has saved you. He will give you a new heart and a new life in Him. Ezekiel 36:26 "A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh." May God bless you.

Oseas Look at Gospel of John 3:16+17 God so Loved the world that he gave. Next Not To Condemn but for those who believe to be saved. WORD OF GOD.

DIANNE

Opinions, or suppositions, or conjectures, imaginations, speculations, and presumptions, these things are nothing before ou face the Word of GOD. The Word is GOD. John 3:v.31-36: - 31 He that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth, he that cometh from above is above all, 32 - And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth. 35 The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into His hand. 36 ... He that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

Sister Dianne, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS knowledge.

There are TWO SINS:

The SIN of the flesh, that will continue in us as long as we reside in this body of flesh.

The blood of Christ covers these sins; God no longer sees these sins.

The SIN of blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. The word of God was written BY THE HOLY SPIRIT.

2 Peter 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of men: but holy men OF GOD spake as they were MOVED BY THE HOLY GHOST.

To blaspheme the Holy Spirit means NOT BELIEVING what he says or was written by him. To NOT BELIEVE is the only unpardonable sin in THIS AGE AND THE AGE TO COME

Matthew 12:32 ......speakeh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.

When you; by the works of the Spirit, BELIEVE the words of God, you are Born Again By The Words Of God. You no longer SIN AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT or blaspheme the Holy Spirit.

1 John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit (the unpardonable) sin.

This is the only way scripture lines up and does not contradict itself, because the flesh never quits sinning,

First, above all else, the most important thing you can ever do is take Jesus as your savior. Are you a born-again Christian? God loves you. Jeremiah 1:5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you." He sent His only Son to die for you John 3:16-18 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." But it's not enough to believe in your head. You must believe in your heart. Romans 10:9-10 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Confess your sins to Jesus Christ, repent, and believe in your heart that he has saved you. He will give you a new heart and a new life in Him. Ezekiel 36:26 "A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh." May God bless you.

Jesus came to save, to bless, to redeem, and to protect. The Holy Spirit is our great Comforter and Counselor and protector. Isaiah 41:10 "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness."

As far as the other things you prayed for, John 16:23 "Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you."

God bless and keep you and yours!

Here's is one of the most important verses in scripture. And one of the most misunderstood!

Because people think this is something you do, or you just say.

But it's something that you have no control of!! John is telling us it has already been done by the Holyspirit!

Notice the last four words doesn't say you SHOULD LOVE your brother also. IT SAYS YOU DO! OR IT'S DONE. THIS IS PERFORMED BY THE HOLYSPIRIT. ITS AGAPE.

1 John 4:21. And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God LOVE HIS BROTHER ALSO.

1 John 3:10. IN THIS THE CHILDREN OF GOD ARE MANIFEST, AND THE CHILDREN OF THE DEVIL: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, NEITHER HE THAT LOVETH NOT HIS BROTHER.

If this Love don't exist between two then maybe you're not brothers. Which implies you have separate Fathers.

Jude 1:4. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Jude 1:12. These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots

Jude 1:18-19. How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

1 John 2:19. They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, THAT THEY MIGHT BE MADE MANIFEST THAT THEY WERE NOT ALL OF US.

Beware of woman and men who say they're Christian but join themselves with EVERYONE how is against truth.

John 14:6. Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Thanks Jesse for much on this lesson.

God bless.

BROTHER Earl.

Part 2. Sold under sin.

Romans 7:14. For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.

I believe this old fallen nature has a source behind it. Spiritual wickedness, Children of darkness.

2 Corinthians 4:3-4. But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:

In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

John 3:19. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

I believe we're born Children of Adam and When we're Born again ( Born from above) we're Children of God.

Romans 5:19. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

Note: To the Pharisees

John 8:44. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. AND OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS IN THE FLESH DONT EXCEED THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE PHARISEES.

1 John 3:9-10. Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

In this the children of God are manifest, and the CHILDREN OF THE DEVIL: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, ( neither he that loveth not his brother. ) THERE IS HOW WE IDENTIFY THEM.

1 John 2:11. But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

This is why there is diverse beliefs we have seen recently, but did you notice only 2 sides, we see some join forces against the truth. because there is 2 sources behind the scene. Mathew 12:30.

Part 3 coming.

God bless.

Sister Dianne, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

Ephesians 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the PRINCE OF THE POWER OF THE AIR, the spirit that now worketh in the CHILDREN of disobedience:

Ephesians 2:3 Among whom also we had our conversation in times past in the lust of our flesh, fulfilling the the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the CHILDREN OF WRATH, even as others.

1 Corinthians 2:6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect (mature): yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the PRINCES OF THIS WORLD, that come to nought:

1 Corinthians 2:8 Which none of the PRINCES OF THIS WORLD knew, for had they know it, they would not have crucified the prince of glory.

1 John 3:8 He that COMMITTETH SIN IS OF THE DEVIL (children); for the devil SINNETH FROM THE BEGINNING.....

1 John 3:10 In this the CHILDREN OF GOD are manifest, and the CHILDREN OF THE DEVIL: whosoever doth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that loved not his brother.

Acts 13:10 And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou CHILD of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, will thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord.

John 8:44 Ye are (children) of your FATHER THE DEVIL .....
