Michael, about your question about James 4:4, ask God he knows the answer.

May Jesus bless you.

1 Corinthians 10:13 even applied to *JESUS*. no occasion of stumbling be found in *HIM*. Praise Our *LORD*.

Matthew 27:32, And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.

Mark 15:21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.

Luke 23:26 And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.

John 19: 16 Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.

17 And he (Simon of Cyrene 3 witnesses tell us) bearing *HIS* cross went forth unto a place called the place of a skull. Much misleading Art, some showing a scarcely scratched, loin clothed *JESUS*, and false teachers who break Bible principles: No single verse is of private interpretation.

Leaving us, who all were Lambs once, with deceptive images, and at times, false witness to pass on which is nigh Rev 21:27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or MAKETH A LIE: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

Revelation 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and MAKETH A LIE.

Cursed is the man who trusteth in man: Be a Berean and trust in the WORD, Zeph 2:3.Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the Lord's anger.

Ephesians 4:15 but speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, CHRIST.16 from whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love. GBU

Its a metaphor. Ok. Other religions think there is a spirit in animals. THERE IS NOT.

Hello, the Bible teaches to love your neighbor. What I don't understand is why you're asking about racism and singling out "white" preachers at the same time? If the definition of racial discrimination is to treat some people differently because of the color of their skin, how is your question itself not racist?

What is meant by Moses stuck a rock instead of speaking to it? Explain please.

Maybe a simple consideration is the difference between "taken up" by some means, or " I go " John 14:12, and carried up and received up of *HIMSELF*. Power to lay down *HIS* life, and power to take it up. *G* B U.

My heart was made clean and the Lord's law abides in my meekness, I have inherited His earth and long to be even closer, like a marriage of two.

What exactly does the Bible say about or against racism or mistreatment against . 2. Why don't our white Preachers or Pastor ever preach or speak on it according to loving God whom ye have not seen but hate your brother whom ye see daily. God bless

:) Amen.

Susan,

We live in a time where Satan seeks to distort and complicate the Gospel making you doubt it's truths. This has been so through the ages. Christ wants us to come to him as little children with the faith, love and belief as little children.

2nd Cor. 11

3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

The Gospel of Jesus Christ is simple. Eternal life is promised for those who believe. This is made clear again and again and again.

Faith, Belief and related words are mentioned nigh 600 times in the New Testament alone. What are the scriptures telling us?

The scriptures are clear that it is grace through faith and not works. How can the unrighteous do works to gain righteousness? They cannot for all have sinned.

Jesus Christ through the sacrifice of his atoning blood paid the price for our sins. All we can do is believe, have faith, believe in this free gift of grace. Believe that Christ is the Son of God, God in the flesh who knew no sin, who was sacrificed for our sin. It takes the blood of the innocent to atone for the sins of the guilty. Christ is that sacrifice. He is the Lamb without spot.

After 3 days Christ arose defeating death. Sin and death vanquished not by our works but by the work of Christ sent by God the Father.

Not only does he give those that believe eternal life, he declared his righteousness on us who have no righteousness.

Repentance is the turning toward Christ. Repentance is Godly sorrow, knowing that without Christ we are doomed to a Devil's Hell.

Once we turn toward Christ with faith and belief we are saved. This is the Grace of God. Our sins are forgiven, all of them. Our bodies may continue to sin but our soul, our spirit is saved.

Paul's message about communion was to the gentile Corinthians who still held onto their pagan traditions of feasting and brought that into the Church as communion.

If the bible tells us the righteous will inherit the land then why is that Christians are focuseing on heaven .

My aunt told me when I was young that when Jerusalem was filled with flowers, the end of time was near. What did she mean? Later as an adult, I had been seeking God and understanding,I wanted to know how to be saved. One night I had a dream and in color, I saw Jesus standing at a gate and there were flowers all around.

The grass withers the flower fades but the word of our god

Mary House,

I believe that Shepherd's Chapel is a great source of Truth concerning the Word of God.

I have been studying with the Chapel for many years.

A thoughtful prayer to the late Pastor Arnold Murray! An excellent Bible scholar.

Show currently runs under his son Dennis Murray.

Re-runs of practically all sermons can be found all over internet.

In the KJV, are the words "children" and "sons" synonymous?

So if u believe Gods word is not true.(who then created you?Gods word he says ""I know every hair on your head "".I formed you in your mothers whom.God created the heavens and the earth.No one created God God has always exsisted.God spoke the worlds into exsistance..Have you ever Read Gods word.?Its a sad state of a person when you die there is Heaven there is Hell. .When you die your fate is sealed.salvation is a free gift.who turns down a free gift?.Think about it.

Amen. Follow Christ not these men.

JESUS SAID RESIST SATAN AND HE WILL FLEE. Ask your self where and those thought coming from. Are they thoughts

you would normally think? If not. Where are they coming from. Get them out of your mind before they take root.

Flood them out with prayer and read the scripture and afterwards your work or chores.

in reality there is no divorce. it is a seperation. they must stay unmarried or be reconcilled. 1Corinthians 7:11

too many false prophets in the world today. you can't just pick and choose what you believe. how many ministers

have done this thing divorce and marry another. some three and four times. why? they look for something that's

not there. no such thing and a perfect marriage. only perfect people can have a perfect marriage. the only perfect

man was adam. look what he did. the second seed adam was perfect. look what he did. he glorified his perfection

on the cross. in doing so we were able to be saved. Jesus never married but by his blood we are all his bride.

THANK GOD THANK GOD, NOW THROUGH HIM AND BY WE CAN GET TO THE FATHER AND LIVE ETERNITY WITH HIM.

A good example king saul and king david his replacement. the formation of the united states out of the ashes

of great britan

In the book of John 3/13 it says only Jesus has ascended up to heaven, yet we read in Genesis 5/24 and Hebrews 11/5 that God took Enoch to Heaven, we know that Elijah also went to Heaven in a Chariot-- so can you explain this

seeming discrepancy.

Yes, 1 did believe & Jesus did say, today you will be in paradise (maybe not an exact quote, but near). Please read Luke chapter 23 vs 33 - 43 for more understanding.

Kevin mack - I have been saying this very thing. It can't be more obvious. Another sad thing is a music video/movie beyonce made that was brought to my attention called black is king, and being promoted by disney, there is so much demonic going on in this video and her words its heartbreaking. Children are used in the video and also children are out and about singing this song which which praises, demons. Parent's better wake up quick.

Matthew 28:19

"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:"

James was Not writing to the natural tribes of Israel,As written to the 12 tribes scattered abroad but he was writting to the Church , In CHAPTER 5 he ask are there any sick amonst you ? let him call on the ELDERS of the Church, so we see that the Israel that was scattered abroad is in reference to the CHURCH . They shall lay their hands on the sick and they shall recover. GBU

GOD actually said the man has become like one of Us and NOT become like Us

What GOD actually said was that

1 Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come! 2 It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

Note: in 1-2 JESUS prepares both our heart and mind as it relates to living day to day; HE assures us wrong-offences shall come against us. Also JESUS assures us HE is keeping record of those who wrongly commit offences against us.

Note: we must always remember there are those of us whose name is written in THE LAMB BOOK Of LIFE thereby we are hated by the dragon who is always working day and night to plan and use others to commit offences against us. Revelation 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, ...

Luke 3:3

The Word of God is God ( John 1:1) and is not of any private interpretation ( 2 Peter 1:20).

The word 'Repent' in different forms (repent, repentance, repented, repentest, repenteth, repenting, repentings) is mentioned 110 times in the KJV, and means a lot more than what people by nature have been conditioned to believe. The word 'repent' used in the New Testament was translated from the Greek word "metanoeo", and means to change, transform, to think differently or reconsider.

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 ( Matthew 7:7; John 14:17).

You need not that any man teach you ( Isaiah 54:13; 6:45; 1 John 2:27), as mankind follows after an image of a false god and a false Christ ( Matthew 24:24; Mark 13:22; Gal. 4:8; 2 Cor. 11:13-15; Rev. 12:9).

It is only by revelation of God that people will come to know the true 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), and only then will you be able to overcome the spirit of this world ( 1 John 5:4; Rev. 3:21) and learn what 'True Repentance' means, and how this whole world has been deceived ( Rev. 12:9). It should also be remembered that it is a narrow way that leadeth unto 'Life', and few there be that find it ( Matthew 7:14).

LUKE 15:10. LIKEWISE, I SAY UNTO YOU, THERE IS JOY IN THE PRESENCE OF THE ANGELS OF GOD OVER ONE SINNER THAT REPENTETH
