Your name is Amos? I just looked in the book of Amos and was amazed. I thought that is what you read. You're very mature for your age. I think God has his hand on your life too. I'm praying you will pursue God with all your strength.

Will we be shown the truth and will man return to our Lord ,God, and Savior. This world is being taken over by evil. When will the awakening happen? I feel it must be soon
Who are the gentiles and Samaritans that Jesus instructs his disciples not to go near? and why does he instruct them to not go near them? When he himself spoke to a Samaritan woman and said if you know who this was, you would ask for living water?
Guiding and keeping our hearts with all diligence is very critical these days. Our heart can deceives and leads in the wrong way. So we have to read and apply the word of God and ask Him to guide us in all our ways. The word further tells us that the heart of men is desperately wicked. So if out of our hearts are the issues of life that means we have protect it.
Thank you Fred and yes we do indeed need Gods Wisdom not Wordly reasoning and understanding, if not corrected it will lead to acceptance of Sin. Proverbs 4:7 -Proverbs15:2. We were not Born with Gods Wisdom so we all lack it but when we ask in Faith we will receive James 1:5-8 because it is according to Gods Good Will for us as is the Empowering of The Holy Spirit 1Cor2 - Luke11:13 and also Confirmed in the Scriptures is our need to seek Jesus our only Spiritual Teacher Matthew 23:8-10 who Leads us into all Truth and also when we Study the Scriptures as you shared Fred but of course not like the Pharisees did John5:37-40. God Bless you Fred as you reach out to others with His Love.
The LORD GOD ALMIGHTY is worthy of all praises! LORD I want to praise you more and be more
Obedient to you, remove everything that is displeasing to you far from me and LORD I thank you
for not leaving me in the hands of the enemy or allowing me to be condemed when brought to
Trial. The joy of the Lord is my strength! LORD may you receive the Glory and may you be exalted
Forever and forever Amen and Amen!

Andrew Kelly do you also reject Jesus being Called Emmanuel Meaning God With Us? Matthew1:28 - Isa 7:14 - Isa 8:8 Your sharing Cult teaching you need to ask for God's Wisdom you lack it and yes we all do untill we ask for it. Wisdom - James1:5-8 Proverbs 4:7 and many more. 1John5:7 For there are Three that bear Record in Heaven, The Father, The Word and The Holy Ghost and These Three Are One KJV.
If we recognize the power of our words have life and death , then we would be more careful about even our choice of words. Our words give us identity therefore if we use filthy language we are conveying to others that we are filthy. If we find ourselves in that position of weakness, then we must ask for God's spirit to transform our lives. Read Proverbs 4:24

Thank you Thomas for your response, it's late in Aussie Land, I was hoping to respond sooner but I have been having trouble Posting Comments, it could be hacking again but I will leave you a few Scriptures now to read about God's Wisdom which none of us were Born with and I will share about them and some others tomorrow. Proverbs 4:5 and James1:5. Take Care - Annie.
Dear Netta it's good that you are wanting to read the Bible. When I first started Bible Studies I became very confused because of the Writers contridicting each other. I asked God for His Wisdom James1:5-8 which none of us were Born with and so need Proverbs 4:5 Jesus is now Leading me into all Truth if I'm not sure I ask Him and He confirms in my Heart and by Scripture. His Truth. Blessings-Anne.
God, l want to Live and Serve you. Make me strong and courageous when you show me!!! God says not to tremble or be dismayed-- for He is near you always.. Now, how are you ready to let God show you what He needs you to do? Or are you going toward the worldly way of evilness of Self?..
Yes, I think so, too. I'm a very exact person detailed and also caring and it's nice to know that God likes me - or my doings. I love people, I do paintings, I like to study and teach. Sometimes I notice God is there with me.
Hi Stangett, it seems like I was your confused in regard to some Scriptures, My confusion was mostly because of the contradictions with some who Taught it but I was ok with others. The Lord showed me the need to ask for His Wisdom which none of us were Born with Proverbs 4:7 - James 1:5 I than started to understand His Truth although I'm still learning the confusion is gone. Blessings - Anne.

The senseless thing about the smuggled pork: is that we buy their cheap pork
And they buy our higher priced (safe) pork for their citizens.

King James Version
20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.
24 Put away from thee a froward mouth, and perverse lips put far from thee.
25 Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.
26 Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.
27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil
