Is it true that at the end time. America will be at war against of Russia,China?

who was the man in mark ch.14,51

Kelly's Question: Who are these other people that live outside of Eden? God created Adam, and from Adam He created Eve, Eve bore Cain, then bore Able whom Cain killed. So who is it that Cain is afraid will kill him if they see him?

Answer: Although the Bible does not give the timeline of events during earlier chapters of Genesis it can be assumed that there were several years, perhaps even a hundred in which other births of Adam and Eve's who have grown up and knowing ALL of their siblings, it quite reasonable to see that Cain [may have] been concerned for their retaliating on behalf of Abel. Of course this is just a reasonable guess, but not without the obvious conclusion(s).

He was prophet, you pick him up in 1st kings 17:1- 2 kings 2:11. hope that helps.

Have everyone is this world heard about Jesus Christ?

I feel your need for companionship, but, my sister my encouragement to you is to, Wait on the Lord, be of good courage and he shall strengthen thine heart, wait I say on the lord.

While wait, my sister, delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart. Seek his face, ask him to direct you in your choosing

Thank you so much for your research and answer.

God never leaves a searching soul in the dark .

But beware of false prophets for they are the many .

Read the Bible and seek the truth there . Seek and you will find . I have never been disappointed in many years .

The gospels are most direct for instructions , the epistles are good for clarification and expansion . Revelation is the future . OT is an example of Gods dealings with Obedience or disobedience for our learning that we may learn from others made examples by God .

Someone once mentioned to me that Jesus was not born into sin. But since Mary and Joseph were born into the world, they were born into sin, even if they never committed sinned. Doesn't that still mean that both Mary and Joseph were of a sinful nature? And wouldn't that mean that Jesus being born into the world, would be born into sin or born to have a sinful nature even though He is God?

Verse 22

Here is the correct understanding of Jesus position . As mediator on behalf of all of us .

We would all be toast with out Jesus Acting on our behalf . No one can approach God . Without Jesus , he Is intercessor as well as Saviour .

Much more could be said . Martha got it right .

We should be as Christ. Loving one another , without covetousness, not looking unto others things .Doing things out of love not for vain glory !We are to be as Christ. Always humble, looking unto him. that we worship as the son of God. So, how can we do these things if we are not like one another. We should always except one another as Christ excepts us . We as brother and sisters should always remember what He has done for all of us!

We start out as a child , we except the word for what it is! As we mature and live our life we carry his word with us. I carried a bible most of my life. I still have a very short memory, and have difficulty remembering chapters and verses. So., what I do is try to apply certain things that happen in life to his words. There is nothing that will happen to you, that is uncommon to man. You will soon find out that Satan does not like anyone excepting Christ. This world is his place , this to you will find out. The 3 words I always, always remember, is when He says " Do Not Be Afraid"

Understanding his love for us, would be an eternity of learning. That is why He loves us so much !So. so. much. We have but a short time here to learn these things . God bless, keep up your study. You will only do nothing less than grow in him.

Amen Glenn, The Lord equips us to serve by the Holyspirit, thats why he told the disciples to wait on the Holyspirit before he sent them.

Cathy, I just respond to your question here only, as you've asked a similar question a couple of times. I can see that this issue is troubling you a lot & it is important. When I read about 'forgiveness' in the Bible, whether of God's forgiveness of us or us forgiving someone else, it speaks of an act of love that demands no further repercussions from us. Just as God Who forgives us of our sins when we come to Him in faith because of Jesus' Sacrifice, God's forgiveness then requires that He no longer remains angry with us & that He no longer holds our many sins as still accountable before Him. In other words, when God forgives, He treats us as clean, innocent of all crimes & fully acceptable to Him into His family.

But does God forget? He being God, cannot suddenly have the thought of us just having wronged Him, be obliterated from His Mind - that wouldn't make sense. So, His forgiveness will make us not guilty before Him but not release His Mind from knowing that we were & still are sinners. Even of Jesus when He walked on Earth, it was said of Him in John 2:24,25, "But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men; and needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man." Many people began to believe in Him because of His miracles, but still He did not "commit Himself to them" (or, He didn't put His trust or confidence in their good words about Him), because He knew the true condition of their hearts.

In yours & our situation, we are told to forgive one another & so we should, so that we demonstrate a true heart's response to someone else's wrong against us based on the love of Christ in us. But we need to be prudent, knowing that our hearts are prone to doing evil, & so in our forgiveness of someone else, we remain cautious (i.e. we fully accept that person into our hearts but careful if there happens to be signs of a recurrence of such acts against us). We must forgive but we remain cautious, remembering what we all are.

I thank you for the wonderful message of the ten commandment which was explained.

I am convinced that on my part I failed miserably and would like you to pray for me

I thank God for his divine leading me and show me the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Thank you for the wonderful work you're doing for the spread of the gospel

May God continue to bless and be with you always

Have a blessed new year 2021

It is OK too love a women but not touch her. Too desire her but not act

Our personal relationship with Christ gives us individuals power to do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Phil 4:13 so we give no authority to the enemy to steal our joy or love or peace. Your own blossoming in fruits of the Holy Spirit Gal 5:22 can give you wisdom for your personal journey to defeat all attempts from the evil one and those that do evil. James 1:5. I personally believe Jesus taught us to have less of an eye for an eye old testament mind set to the fulfilling of the law in love so we each in our own spirit are stronger in our armor for our own sake. Eph 6:10-18.

That was good testimony, thank you!

Verse 9: ... and there is no new thing under the sun.

I don't understand this, it must be abstract. There are new things made by man every day, it must mean that there are no new earth elements being made or no new things like wind, fire, water etc being made?

Melinda, so in your opinion, we have already had 7 plagues prior to the Spanish Flu and Covod 19? And if so, would the Spanish Flu and the Covid be 1 and 2 of the coming 7 plagues in Revelation?

I suppose either would be true...God gave his son to us...and, He gave us to His Son. I love that no one can snatch us from God's hand! Thank you for your response.

i love learing about christ.

Love one another , Love covers a multitude of sin! Again ,I say love one another. Love your neighbor as yourself!

This was the name I looked for , my last born of 7.Mishael! Fantastic testimony. You nailed it.

Did Abraham tell Sarah what he planned to do to Isaac?

When you study the word soul, Hebrew (Nephesh) and Greek (psuch). Nephesh in Genesis 2:7 is used as a living being (Adam). This gives us the meaning of a soul. Now the word Nephesh (Soul) is also any part of the whole being. Such as the breath, the thoughts, the desire, feelings, etc. Like David in Psalms 42 uses soul many times to express longing and desire.

In " 1 Thessalonians 5:23, "And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." Paul is expanding on this idea that our whole being in all aspects is right before God. In fact the first part of the verse he explains this by saying "sanctify you wholly". So in a long way yes Paul understood the nature of man as a collective being with separate attributes, living, thinking, and doing.

What is the tabernacle of testimony?
