Just woke up from a loud knocking door in my dreams...

Hi Melissa,

I need to know more about this situation before offering any spiritual guidance. If you feel like sharing can you offer more information about what is going on? Or what is causing you to feel that there are spirits living in your house?

I know I'm not in here by mistake!

It gives very inspirational words

Jesus performed miracles on the sabbath day and many people received the healing power of God through Jesus. Some people was hungry but Jesus made sure his disciples and other people who believed in him was not hungry and wanting for food. If you have faith in God you can overcome difficulties in life like hunger and even sickness.

Hiya Earl Bowman Gbu Bro. And thanks for the encourgment.

Alex, may the Spirit (Holy Ghost) continue birthing His wisdom and knowledge in you.

John 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

John 17:21-22 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe thou has sent me.

(22) And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that we may be one, even as we are one.

Ephesians 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith (of the Holy Ghost), and the knowledge of the Son of God (Holy Ghost), unto a perfect (mature) man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ (Holy Ghost)

1 Corinthians 15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not, for some have not the knowledge of God (Holy Ghost): I speak this to your shame.

Matthew 13 that heavenly seed, Alex comments about the Kingdom of God and when will it come ? B/F he assended they asked Jesus ,will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel and Jesus replied it is not for you to know the times and seasons the Father has in his own power but you shall receive power after the H.G. is come upon you. The Kingdom does not come in all of its GLORY till Christ is Glorfied the 2 nd time,which is when the book is opened,the contents of the book is the New Covenant ,that y they sang a new song when the book was opened.The words of that book are the seeds of the sower which will result in the Glorification of Christ impling his offspring the manchild the CHILDREN OF THE KINGDOM, the Glory of the fathers are their Children that was th great PROMISE MULTIPLCATION of his seed ( offspring ). Thats y John is saying NOW IS COME SALVATION AND THE kINGDOM OF OUR GOD AND THE POWER of his Christ ( her Child ) n v 10. Unless ya receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child etc impling a heaveny birth via the good seed ( the words of that book) are the good seeds the voice of the bridegroom his words are his seeds. In the volume of the book it is writen of me i delight to do thy will O GOD, THE WORDS OF THE kINGDOM AS Jesus said in Mat 13.The Woman is the field, the world where that good seed will be planted, our hearts, God so loved the world etc thus the Kingdom will truly be with in us simply b/c thats where the Kingdom seed will be sown in manshearts,,Jesus said he dwelleth with you but shall but he shall be within you.Abide in me and i in you. Its like a spritual pregnancy, When a woman is PREGNANT SHE HAS THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT SEEN, In our case the Child is the H.G. AS Jesus said that which is born of the spirit is Spirit thats the Promise Child the H.G. IMMANUEL God with US . Remember it was Davids 2 nd child with Bathsheba, Solomon, that brought in the great Temple the KINGDOM . I SAW THE 2 ND CHILD . GBU

In 1 Peter 3:18-20, we see the mention of what you're seeking after. This passage speaks about Jesus suffering & dying for us but by the power of the Spirit, He was made alive & in the self-same Spirit He "went & preached unto the spirits (those from the days of Noah being held captive) in prison (held in chains in Hell)".

We can't identify a particular time that Jesus, by His Spirit, did this. Many understand it to be after he rose from the grave & went & declared His victory over sin & death, but the Scripture in question doesn't clearly indicate this. One could then ask: why did Jesus do this at this particular time & not at any other time, or, what was the necessity of going specifically to those held captive to preach to them? I get the sense that this was done at some time after Jesus' resurrection as an announcement to them, but that is not certain as we don't get any more details of that event.

did jesus preach to the ones in the heart of the earth

It was an engagement to be married, but in those days, a betrothal event considered the man & woman to be fully committed to marriage, unlike today where an engagement can be 'called off'. A betrothal could take place a year or more before the actual marriage ceremony.

Except for exceptional circumstances, (such as: Matthew 1:18.19, where Joseph was entitled to call off the betrothal to Mary because of her presumably being unfaithful, he was then visited by the Angel of the Lord to confirm to him that Mary's pregnancy was from the Lord & not because of any fornication), a betrothal was binding & could not be annulled.

Betrothed means engaged to be married.

What does betrothed, mean?

Hello, just to be clear that verse says "BUT" blasphemy of the holy spirit won't be forgiven.

It sounds like you've taken the right steps and I'd be careful in trusting your feelings. Feelings can be indicators, but they can also stem from misinterpreted information, false assumptions, or even lies. Example: someone was angry that someone harmed his daughter and took vengeance out on someone, because of his feelings. He deeply hated that person and rationalized it as doing 'God's work' by ending his life. Unfortunately, he had the wrong person, so he killed an innocent man. Someone who kills is a murderer. He followed his feelings.

A woman had an abortion then had deep regret. She couldn't forgive herself because her deep feelings of guilt. She somehow believe Jesus died on the cross for everyone else in the world, except for her. She somehow thought that not forgiving herself and punishing herself would be some kind of penance for what she did, but instead it only led to her neglecting herself, her kids, her family, her friends, and God. Feelings. We need to love ourselves in order to love others. It's the 2nd greatest commandment in the Bible! If we don't forgive ourselves how can we love others. We have a responsibility to do our part.

God is love. If God can even forgive murderers in the Bible and choose them for his most important work like Paul, Moses, David, etc, then God can forgive anybody of anything and has (except blasphemy of holy spirit), even if part of you doesn't feel worthy and doesn't totally believe it. Deeply ask yourself why you don't believe you should forgive yourself. Why isn't Jesus dying on the cross for you to pay for your sin enough for you? Get to the root of your beliefs by asking repeated specific questions and how you came to believe what you believe. If we shine a bright spotlight on ourselves sometimes we expose irrational beliefs or something untrue.

Hope part of this is helpful. God bless you...

Matthew chap 12 vs 31-32 say all manner of sin and blasphemy will be forgiven, over a year ago I came back to Jesus and the church after having been away for a very long time, I have repented and turn away from the life I was living. Now I confessed my sins and I know Jesus died on the cross for all my sins. But it is different this time I don't feel forgiven like the last time. I guess what i want to know am I still saved even though i feel Jesus won't forgive me this time because I don't think he should forgive me. I know it how it sounds, but this is a very scary place to be because I do believe and always did. But all I ever hear from pastors and people are how once they came to Jesus they never looked back. What about all the people like me who knew wrong and did it anyway. then something makes us come back to our senses and we return to God. Are we still forgiven if we don't forgive ourselves?

David was a man after Gods own heart. Even with his frailties, God loved Him. That's how I learned. A servant will attend to every request of His master. He will sit in the watchtower, with the watchman; in the night. He will sit in the dark patiently waiting on what the Lord will speak.

I cannot describe the rewards of being that kind of servant.

1 chronicles 16:11: what is the literal meaning of to seek his face - throughout the old testament basically.

i get that we should seek the lord while he may be found, but what does it mean to actually seek his face?

I was reading Job ch 38 v 36

I thought you may like this verse . God was speaking to Job .

Sun up to sundown Saturday.

Where in the Bible does it say to use wisdom and knowledge in all things?

Some of your questions have been answered in recent days. At the bottom of this page; look through the 1-100 history pages. It's really interesting to see what we missed a week or so, ago.

There's history pages in Questions, and in Discussion Room.

Thank you Mishael, God Bless you and your work!

Joshua 22:22

"The LORD God of gods, the LORD God of gods, he knoweth, and Israel he shall know; if it be in rebellion, or if in transgression against the LORD, (save us not this day,)"

The call of God into the ministry of the word: What think ye?

You can google that...

The Sabbath begins at nightfall on Friday and lasts until nightfall on Saturday. In practical terms the Sabbath starts a few minutes before sunset on Friday and runs until an hour after sunset on Saturday, so it lasts about 25 hours.

I'm quite knowledgeable about Jewish culture, so I'll answer this correctly

Some non-Jews have only vaguely heard about the word "Sabbath" (called Shabbat in Yiddish) but it is less known that there are a few different types of Sabbaths, such as, what I call, the Soil Sabbath in Leviticus 25. Since you obviously mean the weekly Sabbath, the quick answer is that it is generally from 6p.m. Friday evening to 6p.m. Saturday evening. The long answer involves where on the planet one lives, the season, and/or how strictly a Rabbi defines the timing of sunset

The fact that no one rushed to answer this before me shows me 2 insights: That some of the regular responders at least have the humility to know that they didn't know, and I see an opportunity to use your question as an original teaching example: that just because the Bible doesn't mention a keyword, or a phrase, or the details, or it's own doctrine, the ancient Jews from the time of Moses were very smart to figure it out from Genesis chapter one

Too bad white culture Bible Colleges and seminaries don't teach logic, reading comprehension, and analytical thinking skills because apostasy and unnecessary controversies such as the centuries old Trinity, the Rapture, and the fable about Genesis Six's sexual "angels" continue as proofs that most pastors, ministers and priests have failed in their teachings and duty-of-care responsibility charged by God. Furthermore, they are too afraid to question and investigate the fake additions to the New Testament that has been wrongly attributed to Saint Paul, such as the supposed dogma that 'women are inferior and unable to teach'

According to Jewish law, when does the Sabbath start and end?

What do you think they wanted to speak to him about?

It was the Pharisees trying to catch Jesus in some kind of sin. Jesus used the situation to show the Pharisees (people who hit others on the head with rules), that they were unmerciful.

23

And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.

24

And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day, that which is not lawful?

25

And Jesus said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?

26

How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?

27

And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:

28

Therefore the Son of man IS LORD also of the sabbath.
