No, there's plenty of Bible verses supporting that Jesus is God and part of a trinity. Here's a list: Link

Your thoughts require complexity and mental gymnastics to arrive to your conclusion, whereas I'm just reading it literally like a child can do and arrive at its natural meaning. So, we already know what the Bible says and the real question is whether you believe in the Bible as God's inspired Word? And if you don't 100% believe it, why not? And what is behind this doubt, satan? Why not just pray to God and ask Him to discover and confirm the truth?

God bless...

Wesley Barnard, I disagree about the Word of God not being God. God IS the word of Him. HE wrote the Bible, and we should NOT say bad things about it. I love the Lord, and don't say bad things about the Bible or God. Think about it, SERIOUSLY.

Let the people of God praise His Holy Name! He is our God and we are His people and His nation! We thank God for establishing a leader of our nation who loves Him and Israel. We thank God for giving our nation a leader who is strong and valiant in these end times. Thank you dear Lord for victory over all the evils in this world. Amen!!!

King David,s Psalm reassured me in shadow of death is there. That God is wanting over Senior and we are not forgotten and therefore produce fruit for Kingdom of God. Thank you Lord!!!

Understanding fear, sometimes is deceiving, because even though we think it is real, it is not. Satan has a way of taking a hold of a person both consciously, and or unconsciously, provoking you do do things that are not normal. When He "sees" evidence that his schemes are working, He will continue and not leave you alone! He is prowling always looking for someone new! Remember that we are not alone! Prayer, reading scripture. Sometimes speaking to others only makes matters worse ,because we think our friends have become our enemies! Surely the docs have a prescription for you. This is the last thing you may need! Strength comes from within. Satan wants those who are dangerous to him! Always praying in Jesus name.

2 Chronicles 7:14 came to mind when I wondered about this confusing & disappointing National election here in the USA. I thought of how many Christians will quote this verse. Then I wondered how many really considered the phrase, "turn from their wicked ways" and thought of themselves instead of a whole host of others. Most would not consider their own ways wicked. But what we may not consider "wicked ways" God does. What ways would you consider "wicked" for the child of God that would keep God from enacting this promise? Also, how many, I wonder, REALLY seek God's face seriously.

what is the difference between little faith and mustard seed faith.

Thank you for the scriptures!

Take her to see her doctor and be tested. Has she had her flu shot yet?

1. If she has COVID they need to listen to her lungs. Wash her hands when you get back home.

2. If she does NOT have it. You can calm yourself down. Keep her immune strong with balanced diet. 15 mins of sunshine every day.

3. Stop watching COVID stories on tv. Watch 700 Club at 9am? They have an APP so you can watch all their programs. Build up your faith instead of your fears.

4. When you notice your fear level going through the roof, it's time for you to pray.

The devil thinks you are easily stampeded. Fight back.

Have you received Jesus as your Savior? Put Him on the throne of your heart? Let him carry your burdens. Talk to Him every day. Just like me and you.

Ask the Holy Spirit to come alongside and HELP you. Listen for His voice (calm and still) from your heart area. He loves you.

Fear is a pesky demon with lots of friends ok. We're going to learn how to make them leave your house.

Say this with power:

"In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth

I bind the spirit of fear and torments

I cast them into outer darkness NOW!!

Get out of my life and out of my house!!

I command sickness and disease GET OUT

I ASK my Father to send my guardian Angel and a ministering Angel to guard all that concerns my mother and me.

I give all my praise and worship to Jesus Christ in whom I put my trust. I rest in your love and care. Teach me how to pray.

Amen and praises to my Lord"

You're going to get strong. Be sensitive to your angels and don't swear or talk fears, Speak faith. Read in proverbs and Psalms, out loud.

Email me & let me know how it's going. I love you in Jesus. Mishael

Think upon God in all you do and say, show Mercy & Compassion as you are before God in what you do & say. For many of even those who say 'Lord, Lord' may not enter into the Kingdom of God. Let us therefore proceed not in fear, but boldly in the knowledge of Jesus Christ's free gift to us & God's compassion on us to obtain this gift.

/ i read my bible every morning. love this, so much. thank you .

One of Jesus's Names, which appears only once, is: WORD OF GOD.

Revelation Chapter 19

11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him [was] called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Comment by Mishael:

Jesus Christ is: THE WORD OF GOD

One scripture, in the back of the Bible, but it is undeniably True. Check your Bible again.

(Anyone reading the Book of Revelation is given a blessing by the Lord. Every time we read it. The Blessing: Revelation 1:3 )

Compare verse Revelation 1:14 to

Revelation 19:12 Both refer to Jesus

Matthew 6:14-15

For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

But if ye forgive NOT men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Matthew 18:21-22

Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until SEVENTY times SEVEN.

Luke 6:37

Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and you shall be forgiven:

Ephesians 4:32

And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

Ephesians Chapter 4:26-27

Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:

Neither give place to the DEVIL.

Colossians 3:13 - Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, you also do.

Comment by Mishael: when we don't forgive others, Satan accuses us before the Throne of God, until we do forgive.

Taking Communion in unforgiveness, causes us to be unworthy to receive the blessing. We even must forgive ourselves. Every day till it takes root in our heart. How many years are you willing to live with this self-condemnation?

Wipe your heart, and in time your mind will follow.

Psalms16:2 what "hast", "art" means? same as has, are or has not, are not?

Sometimes I found it was very difficult to understand some verses. It seemed opposite to what it "should" be.

This has been a very brief explanation as there's much that could be said, but I hope that the message from God to us is clear to you & please feel free if you require further information. And yes, the Church does not practise animal sacrifice today & never will, because God provided His Own Sacrifice that fully met His demands & penalty that was against us. This was a once only Sacrifice & for all who come to Him by faith in Jesus.

Page 2.

The blood of the animal was spilt & applied for man's sake, but the flesh of the animal was later consumed by those officiating in the Tabernacle as food. So by doing this, were the people forgiven & free from their sin against God? No - the sacrifices only temporarily covered their sin & hid God's Anger, as long as the people repented for their sins & sacrifice was being made. But this system could not go on forever as God had planned that a once-only permanent sacrifice would be made that would be acceptable to Him. Why couldn't God do this in the first place? Well, His people, Israel, had to first learn what sin was & how reprehensible sin was to a Holy God. The Laws that they couldn't fully obey were to show them their sinfulness & utter reliance upon God Who could still forgive them through sacrifice.

But the time had come for God's Own Sacrifice to come to Earth to be the only acceptable & permanent Sacrifice. And this Sacrifice would completely do away with those temporary animal sacrifices. So God provided His Son, called Jesus Christ, to give His Life for mankind's sins (both for the Jew & the Gentile): John 3:16. Jesus' death on the Cross provided the way for mankind to come back to God - not by sacrifice or any self-effort, but only by believing in Jesus' death & resurrection from the grave & by putting his faith in God to accomplish it on his behalf. So again, a blood sacrifice was required as it showed "a life being given for another life". What we couldn't do because we're filthy sinners, Jesus Christ the spotless Lamb from God was able to do for us & God accepted it by raising Jesus from the dead. So all who put their faith in Jesus are 'justified' by God: i.e. declared no longer guilty & made righteous before Him.

Daniel, even though this act of killing animals for sacrifices sounds horrible & detestable, it was something that was required by God for His people, Israel. To explain this further:

Ever since mankind was put on the Earth & they chose to do wrong & disobey God, their Creator, they were under the sentence of death; death was both a physical & spiritual death. See Genesis chapter 3 for the account of Adam & Eve & also Ezekiel 18:4: "the soul that sinneth, it shall die." Just as we have to pay the penalty for our wrongs before civil courts, so to the Just God requires that we pay the penalty for our lives of sin & disobedience to Him.

But if God fulfilled His demands, none of us would be alive for long & we would be consigned to Hell for our sins. But this God of Justice is also a God of Love (just as a good parent meets out both love & discipline to the child), & God wanted to give mankind another way to be forgiven & acceptable to Him. So when God had called out a people especially to separate them from the world that was given over to idolatry & wickedness & to put His Name on them, He picked a people out of captivity in Egypt to be His very Own: blessed by Him, God dwelling with them, guiding them & protecting them. But they were still human & still did wrong before God. So God gave them His Laws to abide by & also a sacrificial system whereby whenever they sinned & broke His Laws, a system was in place that would temporarily cover those sins thereby averting God's Anger & Judgement against them. And this involved the sacrifice of various types of animals.

Why the death of animals? Hebrews 9:22 says "without the shedding of blood there is no remission (of sins)". It had to be blood for blood. Rather than the sinner losing his life for his sin, God in love required that a pure, spotless animal would be sacrificed in the sinner's stead. When this was done by the High Priest, God accepted it as a substitutionary payment on behalf of man.

Thank you, the Israeli household explanation answers my question. God bless!!

I don't believe such a word exists. But in case you are thinking of a 'viper', well that is another word for 'snake'.

How can God keep blessing america , with So much blood in the ground . ?

I love this book and I'm glad that I know about god.

Thank you rob.

Lisa, there is one scripture in the Bible that shows us one of Jesus's Names, capitalized as:

Revelation Chapter 19

11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him [was] called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Jesus Christ is: THE WORD OF GOD

One scripture in the back of the Bible, but it is undeniably True.

Anyone reading the Book of Revelation is given a blessing by the Lord. Every time we read it. Revelation chapter 1

The Blessing: Revelation 1:3

Compare verse Revelation 1:14 to

Revelation 19:12 Both are Jesus !

Are yoU saying that this is why the world an people are so messed up,,, an don't know which way to turn ,,,,,Say a five year old little girl already dealing with thinking she should be a boy so much so she wants a boys haircut an feels happy that way.. this world is a mess ,

Perhaps I'm way off point but this is troubling.

@Corrin (on 1 Corinthians 13:5)

I'm trying to understand why that was the translation of "thinketh no evil"

Hello Leland,

Seeing your comment I just feel to post this. If a person has truly been "born again" and given their lives to the Lord. Repenting of all the things they have done in the past and living a new life for the Will of God. I believe anyone can become a servant of the Lord, or "Pastor", showing that no matter what someone has done there is always hope for them. Proving Jesus Christ is waiting with open arms for everyone.

As this may help other people, who feel guilty, in showing them how great the love of God truly is. As we look at the Apostle Paul. Who actually targeted followers of Christ to persecute and martyr them before his conversion.

Now if the person is not genuinely converted and serving the Lord. Still being into those past things. Steer clear of them.

Hope that helps some.

Adam, you are not even considering verse 18, which tells us Christ could not be The Most High. You must take into consideration the conversation Christ had with those who hated him and accused him of being God. Do you remember it? It is recorded at John 10:24-39. When Christ said: I and the Father are one. They became angry, believing he was making himself equal to The Most High. How did Christ answer their charge? He refers his opposers to a Psalm 82, which records The Most High condemning the judges of Israel, who were perverting justice. Yet He called them 'gods'. Why? Because they had delegated to them judgment of life or death, wielding great power.

Then Christ concluded with the statement: Say ye of him whom the Father sanctified, and sent into the world, thou blasphemest, because I said I am THE SON OF GOD? (Capitalization mine for emphasis)

Here Christ clearly defines his relationship with The Most High. He is the Son of The Most High, not The Most High.

As I tried to explain in my first comment, we have all been duped and deceived by Satan until now. We are now in 'the time of the end' when the Word would no longer be 'shut up' and 'sealed'. However, just as their were those who could not hear the truth coming out of the mouth of Christ, to day the world will not listen to the truth coming out of the mouth of Christ's 'brothers'; the 'predestinated' ones Paul wrote about extensively at Ephesians 1 and 2.

The truth is available to all men because few have been 'born again'; baptized in water and Spirit. Without Spirit, one cannot hear the words of Christ. To sum up, you have heard the truth, backed up by Scripture. You must decide whether you should continue to cling to the deceptions that have hypnotized the world or pray for The Most High's Holy Spirit to grant you understanding.

Peace, seeker of truth.

The important point of this lesson is the division that will come, not necessarily the count. Jesus Christ is the great dividing line in humanity, whether we are his or not. We are shown here that even our families and households, where unity is presumed, will not be exempt.

The list of relationships would be typical of a household in Israel. Father/son, mother/daughter, mother in law/daughter in law. If married, a daughter would then be joined to her husband's household.

Matthew 10:34-38 is a parallel passage emphasizing that Jesus Christ must be our primary allegiance, above even our closest kin.

John 14;6-9

6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father.

Disagree. John 1:1 contradicts what you just said. It says "the Word was God" and you just said the Word was "not" God.

This reminds me how Genesis 3:3-4 Eve said they'll die if they eat the fruit and satan said "Ye shall not surely die." - the exact opposite of the truth.

Satan is the father of lies, he deceives people, even people who think they are right, he's usually the one behind it all.

So, since you're claiming something other than John 1:1 is true, how do we know you're not the one who is deceived? What is the evidence that what you're saying is the truth and not a heresy from satan?

God bless...
