Off course Last Supper and Communion are not pagan.

My point was the Greek Corinthians had brought drinking and feasting into the church even in communion.

Also Paul's instructions to the Corinthians about hair, head coverings and women being silent is in response to the Greek Pagan tradition of female oracles.

Here is a gracious offer of pardon, and peace, and of all happiness. It shall not be in vain to seek God, now his word is calling to us, and his Spirit is striving with us. But there is a day coming when he will not be found. There may come such a time in this life; it is certain that at death and judgment the door will be shut. There must be not only a change of the way, but a change of the mind. We must alter our judgments about persons and things. It is not enough to break off from evil practices, we must strive against evil thoughts. To repent is to return to our Lord, against whom we have rebelled. If we do so, God will multiply to pardon, as we have multiplied to offend. But let none trifle with this plenteous mercy, or use it as an occasion to sin. Men's thoughts concerning sin, Christ, and holiness, concerning this world and the other, vastly differ from God's; but in nothing more than in the matter of pardon. We forgive, and cannot forget; but when God forgives sin, he remembers it no more.

Where is Abraham's Bosom that comforts Lazarus and separates by a gulf the rich man?

My faith: In Jesus who is God's Lamb, who is in Heaven.

where do i go from here

By nature every person is born in sin through the sinful seed of their natural fathers and conditioned therein ( 1 Peter 1:23). For that reason and in order to become a son of God, which are born of God, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God, a person must be 'Born Again' ( John 1:12,13; 3:3-7; 1 John 3:9; 5:4).

By attending a man-made institution a few hours a week ( Acts 7:48; 17:24), does not mean that a person can make a claim that they are followers of Christ and 'Born Again'. That is falsehood, as in truth they follow after an image of a false god and a false Christ ( Matthew 24:24; Mark 13:22; Gal. 4:8; Rev. 12:9). This is how Satan has transformed Himself into an angel of light ( 2 Cor. 11:13-15).

Only through 'True Repentance' will God be able to reveal Himself, and adopt you as His sons and daughters ( Rom. 8:15,23; 2 Cor.6:18; Gal. 4:5; Eph. 1:5; Hebr. 12:5; 1 John 3:1).

The word 'Repent' means a lot more than what people by nature have been conditioned to believe. It is the key principle of all the teachings of Jesus Christ and the axiom (basis) of the Word of God and a prerequisite and primary requirement for the salvation of mankind. It actually means the changing of spirits - to turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God ( Acts 26:18).

For a better understanding and the 'spiritual truth' of what it means to repent, and learn how and by whom mankind has been deceived ( Rev. 12:9), and what people must do to be reunited with the true and living God, we invite you to seek Him according to the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive ( John 14:17).

You need not that any man teach you ( Isaiah 54:13; 6:45; 1 John 2:27), It is only by revelation of God that you will come to know Christ ( Daniel 12:4,9; Amos 3:7; Matthew 16:17; Luke 2:26; Romans 16:25; 1 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 1:16; Eph. 3:3,5; Rev. 1:1). It is a narrow way that leadeth unto 'Life', and few there be that find it ( Matthew 7:14).

John 3

Thank God, that the ass in it's wisdom spoke to Balaam and Balaam woke up to the fact that though it paid to give Balak and his people a blessing, it did not pay to cross the Lord God Almighty and who He alone wished to bless.

This lesson remains applicable today.

Ezk.chp.13::::n others such books in theBible are written By Inspired men , women Of God.

We can learn so much if we would read the words for ourselves n stop listening n reading into so many false doctrines n

Propheciesthat is not from Gods mouth......If God said it's itsthe Bible Truth.

We cannot question Gods Word, but if we pray and seek His Face n ask Him God to reveal these things which are puzzling to Us n if it is His will He, God will reveal them to Us sometimes itsnot the way you would like but He always have a Ready listening Ear."Is there AnyThing Too Hard For The LORD says He"n He meant Every Word.

We don't have to agree with Or believe every word we hear Test The Spirits Bessin

I have two question. when they say be born again what does that mean and how do i know if im saved

Regarding the Lord Jesus Christ: "He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God." ( John 1:10-13)

If your precious ones come to trust in Jesus Christ for salvation, they would have God almighty as their loving Father.

John 6:63: " It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life."

Does your response mean you disagree with my question? Which part?

God Bless you Gwen, and God Bless the Discussion!

God never change. We have to comply with what he wants. Look at Balaam and Balak.

Personal Understanding will get you oh so far. But the Spirit. Can get you unlimited knowledge, by God's will. Saying that Jesus speaks in metaphors. Is clear when Jesus says in 1 Samuel 26:12 . is that not a metaphor. When it says "deep sleep".

god was angry at Moses, because he got a big head and was acting like he was the one with the power.and god doesn't like competition .

It is a clear that a lot of things in the Bible are metaphors from the saying "fishers of men" to the whole book of Revelation.

Jesus is not in heaven. He sits in the right hand of God. He is God.

The references you brought did not support. I dont see "spirit in animals"

Where in the Bible does it says in the Bible that animals will in heaven. No where.

I agree with those who view the present pandemic as a time that God has given us to reflect on not only our lives but on the treatment and justice for everyone.

Do our sins consume us and we die

I think true research should be done to find out who the ancient israelites were. We know that Jesus said that we are saved not by our ancestry but by accepting HIM as the only way to God the Father. We only get salvation that way. No nation can be saved solely by ancestry but we are saved individually; however history is amiss something is hidden about the origins of the Jews. We cannot just call anyone an antisemite if they ask questions we have to facilitate non-racist dialogue. I think the scientific community needs to set aside its bias and conduct Godfearing and true research and come up with the correct answers for who the ancient Jews were. My reason being the end according to 'some Christians' cannot happen until they are all gathered back together. I think this will happen at the time of the END when Jesus comes and gather his faithful who are the real spiritual jews but many may disagree with me. So my challenge to the evangelicals who claim soo much depends on the nation of Israel turning to GOD, why don't you find out who the ancient Jews are as recent research just showed that the maternal DNA of the askenazi jews are European in origin. I want answers and don't shut me down by calling me names as I believe I am a spiritual jew and attacking me will be an act of antisemitism.

The reason for dying

Stanjett,

Angels can reproduce!

If angels can not produce, then how do you explain the birth of Cain?

The flood of Noah's time was released due to the fallen angels mating with the daughters of Adam.

The result of the fallen angels mating with the daughters of Adam were a race of Giants.

Humans mating with humans does not make giants.

In the OT, "Sons of God" are angels.

Stanjett;

Is Abraham in heaven?

What about Joshua Ezekiel?

Mary?

Is Jesus in heaven alone with God?

What about Moses and Elijah on the the Mount of Transfiguration?

You are wise! If only people understood that knowledge is useless without wisdom; and wisdom can only come through prayer and the study of God's holy Word! Wisdom dictates that skin color is no different than hair color or eye color. Unfortunately, we live in a world that rolls its eyes at a simple comment like that.

1 This know also, that in the LAST DAYS perilous times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power (of GOD) thereof: from such turn away.

6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.

9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.

10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,

12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

13 But evil men and seducers shall WAX WORSE AND WORSE, deceiving, and being deceived.

Jesus is returning soon...

Pg 62 .. of the bible word for word please.. thank you.

I have yet to see anyone admitting whom the true Israelites of Scripture are, and where they are located. Why is that ? Revelation 2:9, clearly states whom they are not. So, who are these people ?
