Matthew Chapter 8 Discussion Page 6

For you to assume that the people that witnessed Jesus calming of the sea as not divine and all peoples being gullible to His works...you, yourself are gullible to the temptations deceptions of this fallen world. Truly I say God bless you.

First dead are those people who do not remenber God.Those people who never do any work for the sake of God.Who never try to find God in themselves.For God these people are also dead or of no value.Spiritually these people are dead for God.Second dead are physically dead people in the world.Christ told his followers that these types of work burrying etc. are for worldly intended people because they have no inetrest in God.You are now awakend towards God and now do that works which help you in spiritual progress.

Seems like they were just as gullible back then as a lot of people are today. What part of calming the sea, automatically concludes that one must be a god, or son of a god?

What a blessing to study scripture Jesus healed the leper why? Jesus loved the leper, the leper had faith in Jesus. As important, he told the leper to go to the priests and offer the gift that Moses commanded. This was to allow the priests to see first hand the power of Christ. See how the scripture states "testimony unto them "? This is their opportunity to seek the Master. Then we have the Roman centurion Jesus was not surprised at his faith "marveled " simply means he made a big deal out of it to show his disciples what an exercise of faith truly is.

Jesus was not shocked by the centurion 's faith He just hadn 't encountered anyone with that kind of faith on earth yet. Just know that nothing shock Christ because he is all man and all GOD.

In my view, Jesus mission is not just about healing but also preaching. If He stays in one region just to heal many people then how can anyone else in another region be known to them the good news. Jesus dont focus on carnal things but He also extends His teaching in spiritual realm so that nothing is hidden.

Means any one who want to follow Jesus christ must be selfless and determine. And not fight for worldly things.

question what was the word that jesus said to exercise demonic spirits

The Leper knew the ability of Jesus, but His willingness he does not know, hence, he said, if you are willing, you can... To access the willingness of God, you need to worship Him.

I think that jesus was just fulfilling what he said in Mathew 5 vs 17.

The faith of the centurion was amazing and the way that Christ re enforced that faith. Yes Christ is the son of man but by faith entrusted to him by the centurion was not physical but a spiritual faith. Christ did not have to actually touch his servant to heal him but he saw that spiritual belief in his heart. Just imagine this FAITH shocked Jesus Christ himself.

Matt 8 24 What a trust! Jesus was calm and asleep not because he was ignorant of the stormy feature of the sea and also not because of his own ability to still the storm.He was calm and asleep because he was very confident that his wellbeing is his father 's and our father God preoccupation.

I I got out of it,that i know god will heal,right now I 'm being in pain on my right side of my upper body its bad pain just to move,but i belive that god is going to heal my right side and deliver me from this pain,and give me a testimony.

I am looking for more revelations on verse 12 ...the subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth,...

God is an awesome God, He can do all things and every thing because He is the creator of everything and everyone Praise His Holy name, all we have to do is believe in Him and exercise our faith in Him. Thank you Lord Jesus for being who you are and strengthen our faith and trust in you please AMEN.

I understand priorities in being a disciple of Christ. I 'm having difficulty understanding why those left behind to tend to the dead are considered "dead. " That 's like saying all that attend to burials and ceremonies are dead in Christ.

The Holy Spirit Led me to read this scripture. I picked up my Bible, the section of Matthew chapter 8, was missing, torn, so then I google the information, then read, meditate on this particular type scripture.

Matthew Chapter 8 I 'm going through the storm right now I 'm trying very hard to keep my faith the devil tries to get at me but I always remember that God ie Good and He knows what I need and when I need it He is a good God I know that God is real I have faith that my storm will be ending very soon

my God is always there we you need him amen.

when God call us to do something he want us to do it like now no waiting around HE did not tell the man that had the leprosy to wait the disciple that said let me bury my father first the dead will be dead and can t go or do anything this is telling me that the GOD work is above everything He came to do the will of HIS FATHER when we take care of GOD business HE will take of our business Seek GOD first and His kingdom

through reading the word of God we awake Jesus to calm our greatest tempest in our lives

1 This erases the notion that only the Jews could be saved 2 It also makes the point also that a person cannot be saved on their parents merits

Jesus answered and said unto them This is the work of God that ye believe on Him whom He hath sent John 6 29 God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son That whosoever believe shall not perish but have everlasting life John 3 16

Chapter 8 reveals how powerful God is.verse 26 it appears to me Jesus was seeding faith in the disciples(we),ooh ye of little faith! Imagine Jesus was asleep in a windy situation yet these man were troubled..Many at times we are in different storms BUT if we dont allow Jesus to b sleepin in that storm and not calling him to wake up we wont succeed.......verse 29 when the spirits say why have to torment us before time,its clear that eventually when the end comes Satan will be defeated.

Jesus is saying those who follow him are not at home here in this world. We are just passing through. The animals do not have a spirit. They are just body and soul. As God's children we have to live in this monetary world because we have been given life. It is God's gift to us. What we do with this life while we are here is our gift to God. It is okay to have a dwelling here but our main focus is to follow Jesus and spread the gospel. Always giving as he gave his life. If you see a need then meet it if it is in your power.

When i was reading this chapter the time they were crossing to the other side Jesus fall asleep but he knew that there will be a strong wind on the see, untill they called him, when we are going through tough times our lord Jesus is there waiting for us to call him.

i have been receiving communion forover fifty years...and it wasnt until today that i heard the real words...i repeated ity two times before i did receive Jesus and i needed to look it up. thank you

powerful chapter about authority only if We Christians knew the great power and authority given unto us the world would be a better place we have the same power that raised Christ from the Dead and we can do all the miracles that Jesus Did and even much more, wow that's powerful thank you Jesus all Glory be to you my Lord.

JESUS our creator we love you. Thank you, we lift up your name. Thou art our GOD. Your name is JESUS

I have thoroughly enjoyed everything that's been posted. I want more of JESUS and less of me.
