Our astronauts took some incredible photos from their recent voyage to perform experiments & get updated photos

NASA com

You can see awe inspiring photos on Hubble too.

Did anybody see the moon Monday night?!

And Saturn has been visible with the naked eye, for weeks. The bright red looking star.

Ephesians Chapter 6

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace,

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the FIREY DARTS of the wicked.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

Ask the Lord to make you an instrument of Peace in your family. Show the kindness of Jesus when you see your son.

I went through something similar as you. I lost all my sinful friends because I was born again. I got lonely and asked Jesus to bring me some new friends. He answered that prayer! :) Come here often, study scripture Till every time you get bumped...out flows a scripture. Speak all the blessings over your kin. This is when we learn patience, long suffering, temperance; which are hard to endure but well worth going through.

In areas that are sparsely populated, they're not experiencing Corona virus like big cities do.

Maybe some cows survived.

LOCUST swarms in Africa

Locust are in the Bible. It's insect and also a pestilence. If you Google "locust swarms in Africa", You will see news reports of swarms of locusts decimating the little food that they are able to grow. They desperately need help in feeding many starving people. They've pleaded with the world community to fund and assist in spraying the few crops they still have. Look at the comparison of a locust to a grasshopper. They just look evil.

I believe in Jesus Christ as the source of everything,lights me,leads me in all my ways and protector in my life cause everything that happens in my lifestyle was in plan.

That was a strong testimony, Whit - thank you. And fortunately, during that spiritual encounter you had on the freeway, you were spared being involved in an accident - must be the Lord's doing indeed!

However, I was concerned with your reference to Deuteronomy 28:7: "The LORD shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before thy face: they shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways." As you know that portion was the LORD's promise to Israel to sustain & protect her providing she served the Lord & kept His commandments. And one of those promises is there in verse 7: protecting her from her enemies, that they might indeed march in closed ranks against her, but when the Lord's Hand comes against them, their fleeing will be totally disorganized as they 'run for their lives' in all directions.

You find this verse applicable to your life, particularly in the appointment by the Lord for your time on Earth. Did you receive this as a Word from God or was it simply you applying it to yourself? I can't change your mind to rethink this matter, but can say that this type of interpretation & application will in all likelihood, fail. And your 'remaining days' may be unnecessarily burdened with thoughts, plans & decisions based on your interpretation, which would grieve me for the outcome of your life on Earth.

My Mother died at age 40 - my Father at age 61. I've always felt that my time would come somewhere in between those years as various factors of health, genes, family history, etc. are taken into account. Now, I have exceeded 61 yrs by 5 yrs & still quite healthy. My calculations failed at that level. "(Our) times are in God's Hand" ( Psalm 31:15) & we can't presume to know what God knows & does with us. We are called to be faithful & holy in the new lives He has blessed you & me with & be living testimonies of His Grace to those living in darkness. May the Lord help you in this matter particularly.

Hello brother,

I'm actually not going to get into this discussion with you. Please don't take it the wrong way. What's more important than the shape of the earth is the Lord. That's all that really matters. I totally understand if you don't agree with me, or others that don't believe we're on a ball, and I love you just the same. As long as you are with Jesus Christ who is the only way to the Father. You are Blessed.

God Bless you Adam.

Thank you, Richard, for your reply. So kind of you to take time out of your day to respond.

The tongues of those who are upright and in right standing with God are as choice silver!

God Bless you brother.

THANK YOU, Mishael, for your prompt reply! I love to study the scriptures and believe it is important to know the rules of engagement when dealing with the enemy. I appreciates the points you have made and have saved them for future reference.

May He grant your hearts desire and make all your plans succeed Ps 20;14 NLT

Ruth and her family have great loss but also have great loyalty and stay together.

Amen. I came out of my church which I was and a mega church . I found the Lord. I am so elated that I did. But it seems as though my whole family have turned against accept my son who accepted Christ in his life and his family. The Lord said that if you were able to save that one then the Angels are praising me in heaven. Amen

Hello,

How do really know what truth is? Have you ever been on the wrong side of something before?

I have a hard time relating to the flat earth perspective for 2 reasons:

1. Scripture

2. Scientific evidence that can be easily reproduced

So, I guess I'll offer my evidence and you can offer yours?

1. Isaiah 40:22 - says the circle of the earth. I interpret this as a globe, not a flat pancake.

2. There are so many easy experiements you can do on your own. I've already done them, so I know the Earth is round, but you can easily do these yourself:

a. Fly in a plane around the world. You can easy fly to where you are right now to the opposite side of the earth and have your phone on with GPS tracking and track the GPS coordinates of where you are at all times. Then book your return flight the opposite way back home. Just keep going in the same direction and you will end up where you started at home.

b. Secondly, you can do this easier and cheaper. Get 2 stakes identical in length and put one in your yard and setup a web camera which can monitor and measure its shadow. Then go on a trip to either west or east and set up the same stake in the ground at the exact same depth with a level- perfectly straight then measure the length of the shadow. When you measure it simply compare it to the shadow on your phone or tablet with your web cam and you can see the shadow lengths are different. If you measure this with the distance away you are you can calculate the diameter of the earth.

c. Get on a plane and go very high and see curvature.

d. Get on a plane and fly towards the west and you will have a more than 24 hr day, because of the sun and curve of the earth, the opposite if you travel east.

e. There's countless photos/videos documenting the earth. You can make your own too, release a balloon high in the air with a camera.

f. If earth was flat it would have an end, but there's no end. You can walk, boat, fly yourself to prove it. I have already. Why don't you?

Even thou there is a tree called lucus tree. These were bugs.

Jesus was died on a Friday (good Friday) and rose on a Sunday. The 3rd day. The Lords day.

I'm wondering, in sincerity, if you can explain how the earth is flat. We see satellite imagery that shows a round globe correct? My question is not in disagreement or agreement but interested to know what has lead you to such a firm belief!

If the earth were flat how would a satellite orbit around it in a circle and not see some corner or "other side?"

Is the sun rotating around the earth?

Thanks

I got one thing to ask you. Why are you here in this forum?

Truth! Actually the beginning of my journey to the Lord. We're not on the surface of a spinning ball lead me to the Bible which lead me to Jesus Christ. Now living a new life in the Lord for God. "The truth will set you free."

God Bless you all my brothers and sisters! You are all in my prayers!

All the cattle died earlier in the plagues - Then when they were hail storm the cattle also died'. Where did that cattle come from if all died during the plague.

Mathew Henry, verifies the spiritual discipline found in the pure faith of the Gospel. Paul describes this faith as to attaining a prize, running a race. That we should not rely on our flesh ,or our education, or our religious upbringing. Our frame of mind should be to attain the righteousness of Christ. That we can attain the power of his resurrection. fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable to his death. Then can we conquer those who are against us ,with the power of the holy spirit. It is impossible to war against the evils of dogs ,evil workers ,the concision, without this faith in Christ. This power comes from above. From heaven!

My question is Psalms 91 verse 15 where it says he shall call upon me and I will answer him and I will be with him in trouble I will deliver him and honor him who is him is my question

Luke 17;28-36

28 Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

29 But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. (Sin was taken, rightesness is left.)

30 Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. (when we accept Jesus into our lives, "the second coming", He is revealed to us in a personal way. Praise God, thank you Jesus.

31 In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.

32 Remember Lot's wife.

33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.

34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. At that instant, they will be as one man,evil life and new beginning. When we accept Jesus into our lives, "the second coming", Our old sinful life is taken and the new life with Jesus is left.

Likewise:

35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Thank You Jesus, Praise God.

Thankyou for replying, I was afraid that my life story would go unnoticed..............THANKS and God Bless You !!!

no matter what we say or do HE is the only one who can fix it we all have a habit of trying to fix things I myself do the same inside we are afraid that He may not get it right like we want it... not how God wants it done I ask that he forgive me I need him like a newborn child needs his or her mother i need him to take my hands and guide me literally I have faults but I want to learn how to be more godlike someone he can call his child.. Amen

7 gen. is 490 years. Gen is 70 years. time of captivity was 490 years.

7 gen. is 490 years. Gen is 70 years.

Good story. Mine is the opposite. Born in a sharechoppers cabin and never had much. But if you don't know you are poor, it mattters little.

Earth is flat and the center of the UNIVERSE.

Federico, My opinion: I feel for you, my friend. This could be mental or spiritual. Are you a Christian? Did you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior of your life? Are you living by grace through the Holy Spirit like Acts 2? Are you truly living as a servant of Jesus Christ as the LORD of your life? That means not holding on to sin especially sin of the past... but asking for forgiveness daily (repentance..."Confess your sins and He is just and faithful (righteous) to forgive you your sins and to cleanse you from all unrighteousness". If so and even if not so, if it is spiritual or mental, I believe that you should go to a Spirit-Filled Christian Minister (Counselor) who can help you in Deliverance. A prayer of Deliverance can set you free...Deliverance has helped many individuals; especially new Christians who came out of the world and who are now living for Jesus Christ. I, myself had gone through a deliverance prayer with a Minister when I first came out of the world. Not spoke about much nowadays; but it could be an answer to your problem.. God loves you and wants to care for you! He gives us Counselors so we can be helped. All of us...

Zion means the Church of the Living God, the true church.

Yes l agree and the comment l want too is that also walk in the spirit so that we will not fulfill the list of the flesh there of. If you keep your mind on Christ He will keep us in perfect peace who's mind is stayed on Thee.
