  • Connie - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 5 years ago
    Sacha thank you for understanding. When i say " blind faith" it means that when i call upon God for understanding i rely on how the scriptures are shown to me without looking for a certain scripture to justify what I have been told to believe. I can not begin to understand what no man can declare to understand. God has always been present in my life. In a personal way. His living word has been my guide for my blind faith to accept what he has set in front of me. A choice to love the Lord God and have no other equal to or above him. To obey the commandment and not question it, blind faith to search out God's word for personal accounting of my own thoughts and declarations. This i will be judged by. As in this

    22But what is commanded thee, think thereupon with reverence, for it is not needful for thee to see with thine eyes the things that are in secret.23Be not curious in unnecessary matters: for more things are shewed unto thee than men understand.24For many are deceived by their own vain opinion; and an evil suspicion hath overthrown their judgment.

    How can you say no one is righteous? Job is perfect and upright and he fears God. Job 2:3. The fear of God is to hate evil. Job hated evil. Job 1:1 "Job...was perfect and upright and feared god."

    Job 2:9 "Then said (1) his wife unto him, Doest thou still retain thine integrity? curse God , and die." The cross reference (1) sends me to Gen. 3:6 where Eve eats of the tree of good and evil and so did Adam. Job's wife said the same as Eve said to Adam. But Job said, "thou speakest as one of the foolish women." He know who the foolish people were. The foolish are speaking of those given to unnatural sex as stated in Romans, professing to be wise they became fools. Job would not join his wife in foolish. Noah was perfect, Gen 6:9 "Noah was a just man and perfect."

    The just have wisdom:

    Characteristics of the just:

    Pro. 10:20, "The tongue of the just is as choice silver"

    Pro. 10:31, "The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom."

    Pro. 4:18, "But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the

    perfect day

    Ps 7:9, "Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins." When an unjust person returns to God they will be justified, made just again.

    I have a partial list of those in the Bible who are just and perfect.

    Can God forgive ALL of our sins because In Matthew 12:31 the Bible clearly tells us that he doesn't forgive that sin and Why can't he forgive that sin
  • Mild Bill - In Reply on Esther 2:10 - 5 years ago
    S Spencer,

    "The difference is we help build this country the way it is, "" ALL OF US""

    If you want to include yourself, I don't know you well enough to object,

    however, "all" is an accusation against brethren, and we both know who

    is famous for that.

    America is one of the least ungodly nations on Earth. The bedrock is

    the Constitution, created with biblical principles in the minds of the

    writers. It is a contract between the people who understand their

    political rights come from God, and the government. The people agree to comply

    with the government when the government follows the Constitution/law. The

    problem we have today is that the governing bodies are departing from

    following the Constitution. You can't legislate people to be saved.

    "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people". It is

    wholly inadequate to the government of any other." - John Adams

    Too many Americans are strangers to the word of God.

    To your point, believers have a part in shaping our society but the decline

    in morality is not something "all" believers must bear. I am persuaded that

    laodicean lukewarmness is on the rise in representing the church in the

    world today. A seduction of wealth and goods has blinded many a local

    church from seeing it's need for a lord to rule and a purpose to accomplish.

    That church is neither hot/soothing or cold/refreshing to our Lord. Workers

    in the harvest are sparse and that ought not to be. All is not lost, because

    our Lord is still offering Laodiceans gold, to repentent ones.

    It is laziness to project the end of times is near and all world wrongs will be

    righted in some biblical cataclysmic event, when instead, working to increase

    the harvest of souls is indeed something of our Lords will we know pleases him.

    That repentence could usher in a revival of the true church with godly believers.

    Why rant/vent here?
  • Steve Anderson on Romans 6:6 - 5 years ago
    Mankind was cursed the day Adam chose to be his own God,

    Jesus overcame the curse, he was tempted in all points such as we are yet without sin,

    He always did those things which pleased his father.

    Jesus never gave himself to the lusts of the flesh, the lust of the eyes or the pride of life.

    HE NEVER KNEW INIQUITY,

    Ironic that Even Jesus could not accomplish what he did with out the spirit of his father abiding in him..

  • Renita Menyhert on Matthew 28:20 - 5 years ago
    I have a question. When Jesus gave this last commandment (Matthew 2820), was this the last time the disciples saw Jesus? Is this what Jesus said as he ascended into heaven? Thank you
  • S Spencer - In Reply on Deuteronomy 20:4 - 5 years ago
    Hi AyinRaah.

    Are you referring to this verse?

    Exodus 6:3 (KJV) And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.

  • AyinRaah on Deuteronomy 20:4 - 5 years ago
    God said very clearly, those who call me by "Jehova" do not know me, I know them not. Guess you didn't actually read the books of Moses.
  • AyinRaah - In Reply on Mark 16:15 - 5 years ago
    "I know thy works, and tribulation, and pouertie, but thou art rich, and I know the blasphemie of them which say they are Iewes and are not, but are the Synagogue of Satan."

    Clearly, Iesus says here very clearly, those who say they are Iews, but are not. Why do people have such a hard time understanding this? Iesus came for his sheepe no? But says, some of you are not real Iews. When a canaanite woman came to Iesus for healing, he said, DOGS ARE NOT WORTHY OF MY SHEEPS CRUMBS. Right there, he called them DOGS. He also says that there is no difference between the Greek, and the Iew. Well we all know that the original Greeks in those days were ARYANS... Get a clue
  • AyinRaah - In Reply on Romans 13:4 - 5 years ago
    "Today, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion, I recognize more profoundly than ever the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross. As a Christian, I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice."

  • S Spencer on Esther 2:10 - 5 years ago
    Why do we blame the Government for our own behavior? We site racism, Abortion, Same sex Marriage, slavery ect... We Legalized these sins and and close our eyes to the sin of hatred and Division. Since some of these sins is Glossed over and some legalized, YOU AS A CHRISTIAN CANT PLACE THE BLAME ON THE WORLDS GOVERNMENT, WHEN GODS LAW SHOULD BE WRITTEN IN YOUR HEART.

    Take Daniel Daniel,Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego; these men didn't abandon God in Babylon. They were in a foreign land and so are you.

    The difference is we help build this country the way it is, "" ALL OF US""

    King David I know he had his own sins as we all do but his heart was right with God, ""a repented heart""

    He was a great king when it comes to leading a nation in the statutes of Gods laws. ( HE DID WHAT WAS RIGHT IN THE EYES OF THE LORD ALL HIS DAYS )

    Do you think if he was our president we would be a better nation? Don't we have an advantage on that Era? ( We have the Holyspirit in us to direct our Lives individually to form a nation barring fruit.

    Who's Governing you?
  • S Spencer - In Reply on Ephesians 2 - 5 years ago
    My take is that Jobs wife was giving him bad advice, wanting to put an end to the suffering. She didn't have the answers and if I'm not mistaking Job never got an answer either. Never knew what was going on behind the scene.

    And no one was born righteousness but Jesus. He was a quickening spirit. ""the second Adam""

    The first Adam was a living soul, we come into this world a son of Adam. That's why we have to be born again, ""Meaning born from above"" Then we will be born of that life giving spirit.

    Romans 8:11. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. This is done by the baptism of the Holyspirit.

    What hurts the Church today is the apostasy, The things we suffer to enter the Church and draw people away from the truth.

    There are people in the Church that think we have to prepare the way for Christ return. Some abandon the truth for their on agenda.

    "what does the bible say about helping or saving children"

    That as the love of God is demonstrated by older people, their children may be influenced by that witness. 2Timothy 1:5

    Hello Dipak,

    Have you commanded the demon to leave your body in Jesus' name?

    If you haven't yet repented and confessed your sin or have chosen to believe and follow Jesus, that will start your healing and start into a new life. Link

    May God bless you and free you.
  • Chris - In Reply on Acts 7 - 5 years ago
    The Star of David, or in Hebrew, "Magen David" (Shield of David) is not in Scripture. It's use today is as a symbol of Jewish identity. It had its roots much earlier in Jewish mysticism whereby David's shield (a five pointed star) was said to hold special powers against evil spirits & used by Muslims as the 'Seal of Solomon' - wearing it as a protective amulet against evil.

    Only after the 17th Century AD, it became a six pointed star & the official seal of many Jewish communities & a general sign of Judaism. So, it definitely has no Scriptural warrant or mention but merely a Jewish emblem for today.
  • Chris - In Reply on Esther 2:10 - 5 years ago
    A Jew would celebrate Purim & do so joyfully as he is brought into remembrance of the great deliverance of the Jews by the Hand of God, through His servant, Esther. As a Christian, I would have no need to celebrate this event but only to bear it in mind for historical understanding & of the working of God in the affairs of men. My special event is when I break bread in fellowship with the saints, in remembrance of my great deliverance from the depths of sin & captivity in Satan's domain.
  • Chris - In Reply on Leviticus 13 - 5 years ago
    Are you referring to Leviticus 13:45-59 where the mention of "warp & woof" is in several verses? If so, this whole chapter is devoted to the disease of leprosy, if it happened to appear amongst the children of Israel.

    The verses prior to verse 45, describe the leprae bacteria that is found in the skin or scalp of the diseased person. From verse 45, it's the disease that is noticed in the person's clothing. So if it was found in the clothing, whether linen, woollen or of skin material, that garment was to be burned. So the mention of "warp & woof" in the garments, signifies the basic structure of the garment, that of its weaving of the thread: it is the direction of the weave of that particular garment. The "warp" threading runs lengthwise, and the "woof" threading runs across the garment. This, to me, shows how close an examination had to be made to detect any evidence of leprosy, as if any evidence escaped the priest, then the community would be at risk. And so we see our present distress of having to mask up, be checked out & quarantine ourselves in this Covid pandemic, just as the leper had to do in those early days - these were God's instructions to properly & carefully deal with diseases or plagues.

    And a further note about "warp & woof", I've learned that this term is also used in this way: For example, "The Constitution & Declaration of Independence are the warp and woof of the American nation", denoting its essential foundational base of the country, or the thread which holds it together.

    I hope that explains it better for you, though if you meant 'wood & warp' that you saw in some other Scripture, then I don't know of any such phrase, & my apologies for rambling on.
  • David R Clark - In Reply on Psalms 9 - 5 years ago
    I have the first 9 verses of John 14 committed to memory from the King James version. This was about 10 years ago, but not sure where that bible is now.

    Thanks for getting me strait on the facts. I will use the correct name from now on.
  • Chris - In Reply on Matthew 14 - 5 years ago
    When someone languishes, it means that he becomes so weak or feeble in strength that if he happens to be bed-ridden he only grows worse because it & the prolonged inactivity. But David proclaims that even in that pitiful condition, the Lord will give him the necessary strength & bring him to full health.

    And this David spoke as applying to the person who "considers the poor". So this person is indeed blessed of the Lord, as he places the unfortunate & struggling person before himself. We could even see how the Lord reached out to us, both poor & languishing in spiritual darkness, but a Saviour came by for us, not regarding his Own Life but for those who needed help & salvation from the pit of sin & hell.
  • S Spencer something we shouldn39t forget on 2 Timothy 4:22 - 5 years ago
    Here's something would save us a lot of time when we minister lost, whether using scripture or not, We have the tendency to set aside what brought us to the truth,

    Can a person feel the way you do or see what you see if he have a different spirit than you? Why do we use reasoning so often rather than scripture? Why not lead them to Christ for a filling of what you have in you, Once the Lord opens their eyes maybe they will see what you do and hear what you hear. As Jesus said my sheep here my voice.

    Romans 8:7. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

    1 Corinthians 2:13-16. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

    But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

    But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

    For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

    Sanctification comes after Salvation. Tbank you
