Part one,

S Spencer, brother thank you for your caring and your support to the brothers and sisters on this site. I understand this subject is off-limits to many and I thank you for your answer. I understand as Christian's we have different understandings of scriptures. I understand discernment, it is like Paul said in ( 1 Corinthians 3:2) the Holy Spirit does the same.

I went to church in my younger years and I had Christian parents, but I was not truly saved until my forties going on thirty years ago, it took over two years through demonic battles and things I did not believe were even real. I have full faith in my salvation in Jesus Christ and the baptizing of the Holy Spirit, if not I would not be here today.

I understand wanting to sit this one out some people's emotions override the love in Christ and many hold this undebatable, if we lived long ago, we would be in fear of death and even today your treated as unwanted, and cast out of many congregations, and I do cherish you considering me a brother.

On to the two Adams, now this is what I feel has been revealed through the Holy Spirit and my understanding of Scripture and I understand if we do not agree, but I will as best I can, tell you. When God formed the first Adam and made Eve out of his rib, they were in the garden naked and they were not ashamed ( Genesis 2:21-25). Their conscience was clean and white, not touched with sin, a dwelling place where God could communicate directly to Adam. After sin we see the voice of God walking, we know who that was.

If we look at all the scripture about our conscience it is where evil or good dwells. We are convicted by our conscience, our conscience records every thought, every intent, every imagination whether good or evil, it is the part of us that is recorded in the books that will be opened. This is why the law fell short it could cleanse the flesh but was uncapable of cleansing the conscience. ( Hebrews 9:8-14) ( Hebrews 10:1-12).

Brother Ronald,

Can you show me specific scripture where Jesus said any of these things?

Some men have said these types of things about women in and out of bible scripture - but not Jesus, HE treated all women with the same respect as men throughout his time on the earth and in HIS scripture.

John 8:7

"So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her."

More important than worrying about hair length, or who can teach, etc., I believe we should be more concerned with following what Jesus says, like in this scripture:

Matthew 22:39

"And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."

God Bless.

Part two

How we walk in this world is for our conscience ( 1 Peter 2:18-21), If we are treated badly, how we respond is recorded in our conscience regardless of how justified we fill to repay the wrongful treatment. I know we have all done this in the past but through the grace of God and the sacrifice of our Savior Jesus we can repent and He will cleanse our conscience.

I feel this is the dwelling place that Jesus repaired that the first Adam polluted with sin and through when we repent the Holy Spirit continues to wipe the spots to keep us clean. In John 14:1-4 that many have a different understanding of, what this speaks to me is, this is just before Jesus was going to be arrested and crucified. Later in the chapter Jesus told them He would ask the Father to send the Comforter to them in His name.

Jesus told them He was going to prepare a place for them, He said in His Fathers house are many mansions. The word mansion is monai meaning an abiding, an abode or dwelling place. Jesus was going to the cross to shed His blood and pay the penalty of sin that the first Adam put on mankind.

The union that the first Adam had with God before sin came in is now restored through the sacrifice and the blood of the Lamb of God His only begotten Son and Jesus' resurrection from the dead, now this union can again be with man through the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus.

The first Adam broke the union with God the last Adam repaired the union that is why I use the name Immanuel/Emmanuel God with us, again.

After the first Adam sinned God communicate through angels, and the prophets until Jesus and God communicated directly through Him. When Jesus as the high priest sprinkled His own blood in the holy of holies not made with hands, God now communicates directly to us, the union has been repaired. We are now His family, sons and daughters.

I hope this is enough for you to understand what I meant if not please let me know.

In the love of Jesus

God brought peace to Judah and Jehoshaphat grew in strength, in wealth, and in men at arms. However the peace and prosperity was not because of the strength of his army, but was given by God. Jehoshsphat saw that the people were lacking in the knowledge and practice of God's truths. He sent teachers and priest to teach the people to desire the truth and love the truth of God.

Our God will fight for us and bring us peace all around us. He will cause our enemies to be at peace with us round about. Proverbs 16: 7. We as saints of the Lord must be consistent. What ever we recommend in the name of the Lord we need to practice it ourselves. May the Lord be praised. The USA needs to return to the Lord God Almighty in this time of Pandemic, social, economic and

political turmoil. May our nations leaders find the salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ and worship the Lord in truth and in spirit.

Matthew 7.23

Jesus knows those that follow him and obey his voice now and forever .

Unfortunately there are many that follow a different Jesus and they do not find out until Matthew 7.23

Don't be fooled by them or there claims , just do what Jesus of the bible says and do not make a show of it like Pharisees.

JR. At 36 I worked in the steel mill. The bible I have now is the same one as then, 30 yrs later the one I carried in my lunch box every day. The gospel will change a mans heart, it will change his footsteps in this world! There was a time I laid it down , the failure u speak of, was during that time. The time you think you are alone, He is as close as He as ever been . He cannot deny Himself, He is that He is.

Having gone through trials, sins that beset us all, forfeiting the grace that is always ours.

I am reminded of the story of the paralytic who came too be healed , carried by his friends and let down before Him through the roof. Jesus, looking into eyes, says, thy sins be forgiven thee! There can be no healing without the forgiveness of sin. Our forgiveness of sin comes to us through His eyes, the eyes that behold His words, as He says " thy sins be forgiven thee"!

Prayer, fasting, giving of thanks, will always, always keep you looking always too Him, for this forgiveness even now! Christ spirit fills the heavens, fills all things, forgiving those who ask Him, even now!

Hello Ronald . In my experience many of those things are not classed as sins and are not actual commandments but are often kept up by many churches that I've visited . With regards to this site , how do any of us know who we are listening to ? Am I a man or woman ? Does it matter ?

Hello T Levi's . It must have taken you a long time to look up all those scriptures for me and I really do appreciate the time and effort you took on my behalf . Thankyou very much . I am quite familiar with David and his life . He is one of my most favourite characters . To me , he is the epitome of a very human human being . At times he is utterly ruthless and very manipulative , just like any of us could be . He broke many of the ten commandments , he swore an oath to Saul which he broke . He loved God very much and was very much loved by God . I believe that the old foreshadows the new . Like others on here I don't believe in coincidences , particularly Biblical ones and it was the first time I had noticed those things in Esther that my original post was about . I was just wondering if anyone had noticed the pattern and if so , what they felt about it . Thanks again for your help .

Arnold , you speak from your heart , there's no better place to speak from and we love to hear hearts on this site , so please don't stop !

You may think whatever you like but you cannot deny or ignore what is actually written in Genesis Ch3 Verse22+23 .

Does God answer No

Hello Darlene. The "Trinity" is a big subject, but I'll give the basics for understanding it, even though it's full meaning remains beyond our limited minds. The word itself is nowhere found in the Bible; it is however used to describe God's Nature in the best way we can. "Trinity", or in another way, 'a state of being threefold' best expresses what God has revealed to us of Himself. You will also hear of: Godhead or Triunity - these also mean the same thing.

We believe that there is only One God: Isaiah 44:6, "Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his (Jacob's) redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God." Those who believe in the Trinity, do not believe in three gods - only One. However, throughout the Scriptures, especially in the New Testament, God reveals His Nature to us more fully. Just as we have immaterial parts within us (i.e. spirit & soul), so God is revealed to us by His Spirit & His Word. Zechariah 4:6 shows us both of these: ("Then he (the angel) answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the WORD of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my SPIRIT, saith the LORD of hosts).

Even as God is One God, in the unity of the Godhead there are three eternal, coequal entities (also referred to as Persons) Who are same in substance but distinct in subsistence. Both God's Word & Spirit have always reached out & ministered to people, whether through the mouths of the prophets or by special dealing with God's people. But that Word that was once spoken by the prophets to Israel, is now given to all of us through Jesus ( Hebrews 1:1-3). So the Spirit we know, but Who is Jesus? John 1:1-14 tells us that the Word that was that very part or substance of God, God has sent to Earth clothed in humanity, for "the suffering of death" - God came to us in the flesh, by His Word, for the salvation of sinners. See also Matthew 28:19 & 2 Corinthians 13:14 for expressions of the Triune God.

Imo an Animal ( our pets ) may be the closest thing we will ever see to an Angel here on this earth in our lifetime.

Hi , there is no possible way you have committed the unpardonable sin, for only Gods elect can commit this , you must fully understand in what manner , that is possible. It can only be done , while the anti- Christ is here , an working his inequalities.

" But in Heaven ". ??? Yes correct,.. because Heaven shall be , right here on good old earth !!! So yes , animals shall dwell with us, in our natural spiritual life form. Heaven is not going to be somewhere else !!!

Peace

According to the way I was raised , and after reading KJV Bible more than once it appears not many church goers today pay attention to the traditional things taught by Bro Paul etc , including women are not to teach or etc to men , it's sin for men to pray or prophecy having long hair, women sin when they cut their hair and pray or prophecy ,

Where can I find scripture to explain why God says women should not teach or preach to men

Mishael , you don't have to explain yourself or defend yourself to any one on here . We all know your heart , pure gold .

Did you notice? David feared GOD & would not lay his hand on GOD's anointted & felt remorseful for cutting Saul's garment.

1 Samuel 24:4,5,6 , 1 Samuel 24:10,

Saul also ripped Samuel's garment 1 Samuel 15:27 however 1 Samuel 15:28-29. Even after remorseful repentance 1 Samuel 15:29,30,35

Do think the significance of the clothing was a factor? 1 Samuel 2:19, His mother's sacrifice 1 Samuel 1:28

Saul pursued David to kill him: 1 Samuel 19:1,10,11,15,

& Saul ordered the prophets of GOD killed, possibly unarmed, their families, livestock & nursing babies included.; 1 Samuel 22:17,18,19 Same Saul that left the enemy King & livestock alive in disobedience to GOD's orders. 1 Samuel 15:1,2,3,8,9,

Psalms 105:15

David's mercy 2 Samuel 9:3-7,

David's sin & judgement: 2 Samuel 12:7,9,11,12,14,18, 2 Samuel 13:1,6,7,8,12,13,14,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,28,29,30,31,32, after years 2 Samuel 14:25,30,31,32, 2 Samuel 15:6,10,12,13,14,16,23,30,31, 2 Samuel 16:3,5,6,7,8,11,13,22, 2 Samuel 17:21,23,29, 2 Samuel 18:5,7,9,10,12,14,15,17,20,27,32,33, 2 Samuel 19:1-4, "the sword did not depart from his house" etc. There were more scriptures about his consequences _.

Queen Vashti, consequence Ester 1:19, Ester 2:4

Saul then 1 Samuel 28:3,7,18,19

David has Psalms of remorseful repentance, gives glory to GOD ALMIGHTY, shows mercy & humility at times. With Saul he shows remorse but didn't read much of repentance, etc.

However the Bible says: 1 Colossians 1:20,

Job 12:16

Hopefully these are helpful in your study.

John 3:16,17

Psalm 83:18

Thanks

This scripture is really encouraging.

Galatians 5:14 (KJV)

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

This creates a environment free of Jealousy, hate, and debates etc. all the things that can cause health issues. Also, people will feel this. Show love; people will since this.

Good reminder for all ( John 3:16,17)

The Lord is praised when we publicly praise Him at any time and place. This forum provides the saints a place to worship together with like minded people.

May God shine His face on all and encourage us all to glorify the Lord. If we don't then the very rocks and trees will.

( John 8:36) If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

People are free from false prophets, deceivers, addictive habits etc. Because of the bible! ( Matthew 5-7)

And sin ( John 3:16,17)

This scripture is helpful, thanks for sharing.

Yes, Like this scripture

1 Peter 5:7 (KJV)

Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Jehovah God ( Psalm 83:18) does care.

This verse brings hope to all

Thanks Chris for encouragement

Thanks Administration for the vast help in links, verse correction

Matthew 22:30

Philippians 3:21

Because you quoted "what say you" I joyfully reply

Yes

1 Samuel 3:19

Joshua 21:45

Luke 4:21

Luke 24:44

Matthew 5:18

Interesting. I haven't thought of it that way. I have however heard it pointed out for hope for all humanity no matter their linage but whom they choose to serve: Galatians 3:28, 1 Corinthians 1:26,27,28,29,

Hello,

I just want to expand on your question/answers.

1st perspective: usually this question is asked after a loved animal dies.

If you just lost an animal that you loved, GOD knows our pain, suffering & sorrows.

Isaiah 53:3, 1 Peter 5:7,

Interesting scriptures about animals

Numbers 22:28,30,

Isaiah 11:4,6,7,8

Genesis 9:5

Hope

1 Corinthians 2:9

Hopefully these scriptures are encouraging.

oooh Dear all. Genesis 1:24

"And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so."

We all know these dayes that all the animal was saved in Noas dayes.

The animals is innocent. I'll read that some day but cant remember where, sorry.

Why create, and then eradicate?

For us like food? Not every animal have gone too food. Like not all human have being saved in their life. There's is a separate conditions. In one way God have drown me too the Heaven. And ill live with God today. All thanks too Jesus who have going through the heavens for all.

Mark16:15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

I know animals well, and they laughs and cry's they evan mourns. And are happy and play. Have joy in they heart. And best of all we ppl shall have responsibility over them.

Ill think i will see all different butterflies there too. And hear all the bird chirps. And i belive i will see all living creature whom i speak the Jesus Name woo. Life in the Name of Jesus.
