Discuss Matthew 6 Page 16

Byblos appears as Kebny () in Egyptian hieroglyphic records going back to the 4th-

dynasty pharaoh Sneferu (fl. 2600 BC)[6] and as Gubla () in the Akkadian cuneiform Amarna letters to the 18th-dynasty pharaohs Amenhotep III and IV. In the 1st millennium BC, its name appeared in Phoenician and Punic inscriptions as Gebal (, gbl); in the Hebrew Bible as Geval (); and in Syriac as gbl(). The name seems to derive from gb (, "well") and l (, "god"), the latter a word that could variously refer to any of the Canaanite gods or to their leader in particular. The name thus seems to have meant the "Well" or "Source of the God".

Its present Arabic name Jibayl () or Jbeil ( [bejl]) is a direct descendant of these earlier names, although apparently modified by a misunderstanding of the name as the triliteral root gbl or jbl, meaning "mountain". During the Crusades, this name appeared in European records as Gibelet and Giblet. This name was used for Byblos Castle and its associated lordship. The Phoenician city, known to the Greeks as Bblos () and to the Romans as Byblus, was important for their import of papyrus from Egypt.The English word "Bible", ultimately deriving from the Greek words bblos () and biblon(),

Iris

C1:Q17

Par quarante ans l'Iris n'apparoistra,

Par quarante ans tous les iours sera veu: La terre aride en siccit croistra,

Et grands deloges quand sera apperceu.

For forty years the rainbow will not be seen. For forty years it will be seen every day.

The dry earth will grow more parched,

and there will be great floods when it is seen.

Iris is a genus of 260-300 species of flowering plants with showy flowers. It takes its name from

the Greek word for a rainbow, which is also the name for the Greek goddess of the rainbow, Iris. Some authors state that the name refers to the wide variety of flower colors found among the many

species. As well as being the scientific name, iris is also widely used as a common name for

all Iris species, as well as some belonging to other closely related genera. A common name for some species is 'flags', while the plants of the subgenus Scorpiris are widely known as 'junos', particularly

in horticulture. It is a popular garden flower.

Etymology

From Middle English ], from Latin ris, from Ancient Greek (ris, "rainbow") From Old Irish ires, iress ("religion, creed, the (true) faith").

Noun

iris (genitive singular irise)

1. (literary) belief, faith, religion

This idea is actually based on a Midrash on the pasuk, "She will dwell there as in the days of her youth, and as on the day of her ascent from the land of Egypt." (Hoshea 2:17).

EZEKIEL 4:4

1 Thou also, son of man, take thee a tile, and lay it before thee, and pourtray upon it the city, even Jerusalem:

2 And lay siege against it, and build a fort against it, and cast a mount against it; set the camp also against it, and set battering rams against it round about.

3 Moreover take thou unto thee an iron pan, and set it for a wall of iron between thee and the city: and set thy face against it, and it shall be besieged, and thou shalt lay siege against it. This shall be a sign to the house of Israel.

4 Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity.

5 For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

6 And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year.

7 Therefore thou shalt set thy face toward the siege of Jerusalem, and thine arm shall be uncovered, and thou shalt prophesy against it.

The day-year principle, year-day principle or year-for-a-day principle is a method of interpretation of Bible prophecy in which the word day in prophecy is considered to be symbolic of a year of actual time. It is used principally by the historicist school of prophetic interpretation.

It is held by the Seventh-day Adventist Church, Jehovah's Witnesses, some Pentecostals and the Christadelphians. The day-year principle is also used by the Baha'i Faith, as well as in astrological prediction techniques, otherwise known as "primary directions

Chris -- Thanks for the reply, and thanks for being civil. I still have to disagree with what you said. When you began your defense of your views with, "Wouldn't a believer...", I couldn't help but think that this is not how we must, as Bible-believing Christians, defend a position. When we hold a doctrine to be true, we must not use human logic or, "Don't you think that ___?" We must appeal to Scripture for our views, and Scripture alone. And Scripture, in fact, gives us an example of one who DID walk away from his salvation, after knowing Christ face-to-face. That person was Judas Iscariot. He knew our Lord, talked with our Lord, and walked with our Lord, yet he chose to reject Jesus and go his own way...As for the verse I cited from 1 Corinthians, maybe you disagree with what I said, but I wonder how you can dismiss these very clear verses:

But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. ( Matthew 6:15)

But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. ( Matthew 24:13)

He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. ( Revelation 3:5)

There are other verses I can provide, if you're interested. The clear testimony of the Bible is that we must persevere in the grace of God, otherwise we will be lost. No one can snatch us out of God's hand, but that doesn't mean that we cannot walk away from him. Quite frankly, the fact that OSAS is so popular in America, scares me, because it is making people take their salvation lightly.

Dennis: this is what the scriptures say about REMISSION of sins.

Matthew 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

Mark 1:4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

Luke 1:77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,

Luke 3:3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;

Luke 24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Acts 10:43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.

Romans 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

Hebrews 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.

Acts 2;21 Whosoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Peter 3;18For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: Peter 3;21The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ The kjv uses the word also, a word that takes us back to the old test. Thank you for pointing these things out!

You are correct! If I have a friend,who is dieing or come upon an accident and there is someone breathing their last breath, shall not their confession of Jesus Christ be enough to take them too heaven? That whosoever believeth on His name shall be saved!My comment was referring to the sacrificial atonement through animal sacrifice. This act provided a temp.cleansing until the next time of the same sacrifice. Baptism is a commandment of Christ, which in effect is the fulfilling of the law. Our confession is what saves us! The sacraments do not save us. CIRCUMCISION IS OF THE HEART! Loving Christ with every living part of your body and soul is what saves us! When you kneel before this gracious forgiving God and confess your sins,He is faithful and just to forgive us. It is interesting that Peter uses the example of Noah in the verse before to illustrate what baptism is. The law and the gospel always exalt one another. I think I would prefer to use this chapter of Peter, to understand what baptism does. Being put to death in the flesh but quickened in the spirit! I love Peters words, He has a clear understanding of both.

Your sins are not washed by confessing and having faith in Jesus. You receive the remission of your sins when you obey Acts 2:38 read it. Maybe you should read the whole book of acts and see what the Apostles taught as instructed by the Lord Jesus

ANXIETY:

Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus is teaching on cares and worries of this world. Two thousand years later we still need this compassionate sermon. We still worry and feel anxious even tho we know Jesus tells us not to.
It helps me to take time to pray and worship. I sing like a frog.

Luke 17:4 - a lot. This shows the level of forgiveness you are you give to others, otherwise we won't be forgiven. Matthew 6:14, Mark 11:26

Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof ( Matthew 6:24-34)." Therefore then, brethren, if we "serve God" INSTEAD of serving mammom, AND if we obey Him by HEARING (obeying) His Beloved Son, in whom He is well pleased, and seek we FIRST the kingdom of

GOD said before John the Baptist: "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased ( Matthew 3:17)." GOD later said, before Peter, James, James' brother John, Moses, and Elias--who IS John the Baptist: "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him ( Matthew 17:5)." If we want to obey God, and "hear...him (His Beloved Son Jesus Christ), one of the things the Lord Jesus--our Savior said was this: "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you ( Matthew 6:33)." The Lord Jesus Christ IS NOT a liar, for GOD CANNOT LIE! Lying IS a sin, and neither GOD the Father, nor GOD the Son, nor GOD the Holy Ghost (GOD's Holy Spirit)

JOB...you might listen to John Michael Talbot on YouTube; Father I put my life in Your hands. He sings a lot of Bible psalms.

Forgive me Father, A sinner.

Fred Scanlan - in Reply on Exodus 12
When you confess Him and you receive his body and blood in faith, your sins are washed away and you are a born again child of God! We In fact are redeemed from sin and death, Christ having become our sacrifice, while fulfilling all righteousness .Our atonement for sin,our "Passover lamb". You need only to believe. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Behold I stand at the door and knock. Open your heart and let him abide. Trust in Him and lean not unto your own understanding! All your ways acknowledge HIM! Salvation is yours, and fades not away, it is kept for you! These promises of salvation are sealed,with his BLOOD! Receive HIM today

Prayer for Serenity
God, grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time,
enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardship as a pathway to peace;
taking, as Jesus did,
this sinful world as it is,
not as I would have it;
trusting that You will make all things right
if I surrender to Your will;
so that I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with You forever in the next.

Amen.

(I used to read this on my grandparents' wall--it was a plaque--visiting their house as a child, only recalled the 1st part

Ironically, the 1st thing you posted, my original comment helped me just now, because I'm thinking about what may be to come & how I can be "founded upon a Rock," because I don't have His fortitude of scripture needed to be strong enough to lift (accept gracefully/humbly as a Christ did HIS weight/burden/cross) such weights as previous and current Christian (teammates/family members/siblings) have and currently ARE ALREADY lifting/have lifted. I came back to say you can post all of the "message to the screener" if it will profit (I only said "don't" to indicate it was just to the screener to explain my earlier mess(age) (lol). But yeah, I came back because I wanted to post the following:

And children WILL (as in the days of Genesis) CONTINUE to suffer things that I can't even comprehend, and will CONTINUE to suffer in open secret. Things WILL be BAD for some, and UNIMAGINABLE for others. I have had anger toward God because I didn't like that He doesn't appear to will me fight to CHANGE things (to make tHIS WORLD a better place for the children and young people and the most vulnerable populations). I didn't/don't understand God's ways, which is fine, but not accepting His will, is for those who won't BE accepted into HIS HOLY...Heaven(ly) House and HIS kingdom in heaven. Christ helped me tonight, I'd erred a semantically, but His intent was to fix my err in spirit/heart/will

...but tonight, Christ's Father willed for Christ to open up my heart to accept it, and He gave me wisdom through SEEING what He DID...Himself, though I've intellectually known ALL of this since childhood, basically, and it's been the thing God has made KNOWN to me since I was LITERALLY a SMALL child (that I feared God's will of persecution for my personal life). God chose some things for some people that are different than what He chose for the majority around said "some people." Like in Zephaniah 3:12. No matter WHAT a person does, GOD's will is the ONLY will FOR that person! And God doesn't always reveal things, so people WILL "friend of Job" and understandably disobey Matthew 7:1-5

Only one way to get there, and that's God's way or the highway! I wanted the ring and to attend the (Heavenly, eternal) Championship victory celebration in the end, with my teammates, but I wanted to DIRECT GOD in where to put me. I feared the position He'd put past teammates in (the persecution of the prophets that came before us and the affliction of current and FUTURE church that is going on right now, and will until Coach/Referee/Team Owner GOD blows the game-ending whistle. I've "dreamed dreams," whether or no they've come from God, I know not, but I'll pray "nevertheless, THY (not my will) be done," thanks to Christ's surprise teaching of me tonight. KNOWN this scripture but tonight

But Christ DID teach me, and fix/heal my BIG problem with His/our Dad (God aka I AM aka Jehovah): Jesus didn't want to suffer, but He DID want to do God's will, though He COULD have prayed for no less than 12 legions of angels, or so, His BIGGEST PURPOSE in life was to fulfill His FATHER'S DIRECTION for His FATHER'S script as an actor in His FATHER'S play...which was but ONE reason His/our Heavenly Father was/is so well-pleased with HIM! I have had anger/rage/hatred toward God BECAUSE I didn't accept HIS script. But the only way to get into HIS "after party.." eternally, is to follow HIS script. I didn't want to, but Christ didn't either. But Christ is where I want to be now.Only1Way2getther

I will not be finishing my post, I'm tired, lol! I had to stop for vitals, and either way. In my effort to write as little as possible (by just posting scripture, instead of posting scripture, and then explaining what it had to do with the point I was trying to make--thought I'd bring it all together at the end in a couple of sentences, and INITIALLY hoped people would connect the dots by looking up the scripture (for those who did NOT already know the context/meaning), and reading in depth and in context. Usually I just type as I'm thinking. By trying to avoid posting too much text, I posted WAY more than I originally would have AND never finished writing it, but CHRIST DID teach ME

...my MAJORprayer error: though "verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you," and though "Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive," IF when we ask God we do not obediently follow after our Master's (God's Son, Jesus Christ's) prayer model, "nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt;

6)"Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad." 7)"Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice." 8)"Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew. And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly." Christ just taught me something, I was worried my error was in how I worded something, so I remembered scripture, but THEN Christ used scripture to TEACH ME my MAJORprayer error

3)"He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done." 4)"He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done." 5)"And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners." 6)"Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and

1)"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." 2)"Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels? But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?" 3)"And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possibl

THANK YOU for posting this!!!! Amen!!! It was needed!!! God used your words here, to help me (and others, surely) after I'd repeatedly ignored His repeat attempts to remind me to focus on Him, and His being all powerful, and how His' is the ONLY will that is done. In Heaven He's the play director, on earth, He's the play director, all we say, do and think, like King Nebudchadnezzar, is all God's script. God controls the whole play, we, Satan, the devils/unclean spirits, the heavenly angels, animals, insects, the wind, the sea, gravity, ALL just follow God's script (PERFECTLY and to a T)! Now, we can pray for script changes, and God can, has, and may change them. Jesus INSTRUCTS us to!
