Matthew Chapter 10 Discussion Page 4

They preach the Kingdom of God to the Jews 1st And they've rejected it And after that Samaritan's and the gentiles were invited in

Do you know why Jesus told his disciples to not go into any city of the Samaritans?

Shalom,Carmelo,

We repent to be saved from our sins since we are all sinners ie born into sinful World

Romans 3:23.

I find that when I have trouble repenting, it's often because I have pride issues in my life. Pride is spiritual blindness that causes us to think our standards are better than God's standards.

The opposite of pride is humility, and one definition of it, which I really like, says, "Humility means agreeing with the truth." Perhaps that is why Paul says that repentance leads us to know the truth so that we can come to our senses ( 2 Timothy 2:25-26).

When I repent and learn to agree with the truth of God's standards of righteousness and sin, I am growing in humility.

God values humility; He shows favor to those who are humble, but He opposes and mocks those who are proud ( Proverbs 3:34, James 4:6). So let's be quick to repent, so that we may grow in humility and receive and enjoy God's favor.

If your conscience is sensitive to the Holy Spirits lead, He will let us know when we are off in a place we should not be.

John chapter 16. He convicts us in our spirit. Then it's time to pray 1 John 1:9 in sorrow that "here I am again."!

1 Corinthians 7, days that it's better to marry, than to burn.

Hello! I have a reoccurring question, do we repent of our sins to be saved or repent because we are saved? I know in the book of Corinthians Paul talks about how the adulterous, fornicators, etc will not inherit the kingdom, thank you and God bless!

I'll look at it today. If your Bible has "center of each page, reference columns", note the tiny alphabet letters in the verses. They correspond to other passages in the Bible.

You might read a prophesy or other scriptures that expand the explanation of the verse you are asking about.

This is how I study. Just note it all on a sheet of paper; and then you can put the pencil down and just read.

I'll catch up with you later. Holy Spirit please bless this child of God and teach the Word to her. Explain all mysteries, and bless her diligence. Amen!

Mishael

in the book of jude 1 verse 14 we heard about the prophecy of Enoch, but we don't know what he prophesied because it is not in the bible, so where is it?

Psalms God even counts are tears, and collects them in a jar.

God knew us, his children before we were born. And even the number of hairs on your head. God made sure that we were in a place to be accepted and counted as one of his sheep. God love is eternity. Comments on Matthew 10

This world is not my home im just passing through

We must trust and believe in God s word,that he can do anything in his will. If we pray scriptures then we are praying according to his will. It is up to us to pray and believe in Him. But we must remember it is God who does the work .he always has reasons for what he does. We may not understand, but he is responsible for the answers,not us. We are just responsible for lifting the matter to the Lord's ears. We must TRUST Him to do what is best.

You have to read all 4 gospels (the Harmony) and the book of Acts to find these things out.

Read the center column references beside the verses for extra information.

You'll find that (Judas) Iscariot was written in a prophesy from Psalms. Jesus knew Judas would betray Him, upfront.

Some things you can google and find out how Jesus added each disciple into "the twelve". How they died, etc.

Jesus names his disciples in matthew 10:2-4. The first five disciples have been mentioned in the previous chapters as stated below:-

Simon Peter and Andrew matt 4:18

James son of Zebedee and John matt 4:21

Matthew the tax collector matt:9:9

Where is it written in the bible how he got the other seven?

Phillip and Bartholomeo

Thomas

James son of Alphaeus

Thaddeus

Simon the cananite

Judas Iscariot

Shalom katoa,with out The Holy Spirit in a Believers Life he is lost.

This man sends me those post a bout God

I tell him God does not have a face-book page

Thank you Onyekachukwu for your beautiful comment. It is very explanatory. Let me add that the serpent is a very sensitive creature. Though very harmful is wise enough to be able to survive in the most unfriendly habitat. I also think that Jesus Christ was telling us that in a world that is often at variance with the belief and doctrine of the church, we must apply great wisdom just like the serpent often does, to survive without conforming to the world. So when we go out there to fulfil the mandate of the master, chances are that some will definitely resist us. However wisdom demands that we leave quietly when rejected but dust our shoes out there as a witness that they have heard the gospel but rejected it.

Amen, Amen

To shake off- so that something adhering shall fall: this is symbolic act a person expresses extreme contempt for another and refuses to have any further contact with him.

This is what happens when someone refuses the word of God. When a person refuses the word of God they are refusing God. (See John 1:1) If any man denies the Lord, he shall be denied. (see 2 Tim. 2:12)

Whatever the Lord tell you to do, do it! Whatever the Lord tell you what to say, say it! What you hear in secret,in private (darkness), repeat it out loud, and what you hear whispered in your ear proclaim it publicly (upon the housetops.)

important.

Mathew 10:27 "What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light: and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops."

could anyone help me to understand this? Thanks.

how to understand "shake off the dust of your feet"? Thanks.

Excellently said!

Matthew 10:22 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name 's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.

Truth, most of the false prophets that is on T B N have denied JESUS CHRIST.

>HE ALREADY KNOWS WHAT ALL OF US WILL DO

Actually, God is so powerful he can choose to operate in our timeframe. Proof of this is people changing God's mind in the Bible. And he loves us enough to give us freewill and ability to choose good or evil.

If that is so, we have no choice. We are not robots, we have a choice to follow Him or not. Let us eat drink and be merry for tomorrow we die. Is what you are saying.

the truth need not be defended,the truth will always prevailed.

Amen Toni
