  • Jennifer F on Nehemiah 7 - 5 years ago
    Nehemiah 7:4 The last word " BUILDED" throws me off. I know this is King James but I'm not sure if that should say " BUILT" as opposed to " BUILDED." Just something to ponder. Thanks!

  • Andy G van den Berg on Revelation 25 on Revelation 2:10 - 5 years ago
    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 translateed 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

    Hello, its not a typo. The KJV has always used that word. You can view other translations on that verse page to compare to.

  • Ernest Matthews on Exodus 15:23 - 5 years ago
    I am amazed how there are so few opportunities being used to follow Gods requests in Deuteronomy Chapter 6 : 6/9 which emphersize that we must teach the Laws and Commandments to our children. I understand only a few people specifically obey this command from God and I am most disappointed about mankind's failure to obey this Law. I wish our children could be blessed with this teaching in every country so they can make an informed choice before they DO any thing WRONG in the sight of God.
  • Alex on Romans 6 - 5 years ago
    Alex's comments on the H.G. John 6 The h.g. was not yet given b/c that Christ was yet glorified the H.S. was given but not the H.G. They are both spirits but only 1 is the granson ,the H.S. is the Father they are 3 distinct beings but only the H.G. is the granson th beginning of the israel of God they are 3 distinct beings but ya cannot blaspheme the H.G. simply b/c he is your own personal God, Your gift from God via the seed of the sower, a child of the kingdom. Your new heart and new spirit, Your new innerman, Your HIGH Priest, Your Kingdom that is born in you via that good seed th Word, the living word btw not the written word, there is no eternal life in the written word ya remember Jesus said search the scriptures in them you think you have eternal life but there is no eternal life is the written word. Eternal life is a byproduct a CHILD of the living WORD AS Jesus was the living WORD made flesh and blood not the written word made flesh and blood.As Mary was impregnated by the living word not the written word, There is simply no blood content in the written word but Jesus was the living WORD made flesh and BLOOD.Even in the O.T. WITHOUT THE SHEDDING OF BLOOD there WAS no remission of sins, If salvation cd have come via the written word then Christ shed his blood in vain and the cross was just foolishness Thats y we must behold the lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the WORLD. The written word is not God but the living WORD is truly GOD and is spirit and life. But we love and need the written word but only the living WORD is God th H.G. fell on them that heard the living word as Jesus said my words are spirit and life and the H.G. FELL ON THEM THAT HEARD HIS WORDS resulting in a Child, b/c i have spoken these Words sorrows have filled you hearts, Sorrows imply a spritual pregnancy as the H.G.is gonna be born in US via his seed .Thats y he is saying unless ya receive the kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in,A child in our future.

    This is what faith looks like!! The world needs to see more miracles like this and it can only come from Christian people Shouting it from the roof tops. I admire your faith, courage and strength. I pray God uses you in a mighty way!!
  • Donna on Acts 9:18 - 5 years ago
    In Acts 9:16 "For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake." Does it really say "shew?" I am hoping it's a typo on the site. :) If it does say "shew," what does it mean? In context, it looks like it might mean "show." I am not trying to nitpick. I know that the word "shew" isn't going to make or break whether someone feels the spirit, and gains faith in Christ. I am just curious, and I am NOT a troll. Thank you.
  • Stephende on Hebrews 9 - 5 years ago
    Is Paul being obtuse with his criticism of Moses, Aaron and the One True God, El Shaddai, who is not divided or dissected , but rather obeyed. He is at once a Gid of mercy and a Gid of retribution. In my mind, Paul mangles what Jesus represented, which is thorough understanding and unrelenting obedience to Torah, which is the Word of God firsthand. Who can u understand Paul as he twists and I think mangles the word with subjective ruminations. The thesis that only adoration of Jesus is sufficient action needed for Salvation. That word is never mentioned in the Torah. It is a Chrisian construct entirely. Meanwhile, in these ladder days, instead of keeping a critical watch on what we are ad human beings, all they need do is smile a meekish smile and cite Jesus's name over and over to feel vindicated from the wellspring of evil in their hearts.
  • Andy G van den Berg on John 1:10 - 5 years ago
    John 1:13

    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 ( Acts 7:48; 17:24) a few hours a week 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).

It is a narrow way that leadeth unto 'Life', and few there be that find it ( Matthew 7:14).
  • Joyce on Romans 9:15 - 5 years ago
    Romans 9:15 says God will show mercy on whom he chooses and compassion on whom he chooses. To me this means the same as He has predestined who will accept Him. How do we know if we're ones who He will allow to be saved, shown mercy & compassion?

  • Alex on Deuteronomy 6 - 5 years ago
    My Comments about the Davidic kingdom and how it is another Christ Kingdom as in ISAIAH 11 v 1 kjv. Isaiah said that a rod wd come out of Jesse which was DAVID THAT CAME OUT OF JESSE.and a branch wd come out of David which was Solomon that means comforter that came out of Christ loins he shall be a great judge and judge the whole world, Jesus said when he the spirit of truth is come he will reprove the world of sin and judgement etc. God wd not let David the son build the great Temple he wd only let Solomon the granson build that great temple impling only the Comforter the H.G. can build that great Temple in in our hearts REMEMBER Jesus said a greater then Solomon is here thus the Comforter the H.G. will build a greater then Solomon,abide in me and in you .Remember Solomon was the granson in the Davidic kingdom. In the heavenly Kingdom the H.G. IS THE GRANSON simply b/c he comes out of Christ loins ( his seed ) his breath was his word his seed. Thats y Jesus refers to the H.G as the PROMISE Child he is the granson, the 3rd person in the heavenly trinity, Remember it was the 3 rd person Jacob th Grandson whos name was changed to Israel which is telling us the H.G IS GONNA INITIATE THE ISRAEL OF GOD. Rev 12 she brought a manchild that is gonna rule all Nations and its this Child the granson that is the H.G. THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH that is gonna rule all nations as Jesus said. The woman is US that has been implanted with his seed the word the children of the Kingdom. Remember when Isaiah saw the kingdom coming he says unto us a Child is born unto us a son is given which is the HG, TH GRANSON the child of PROMISE .Remember what Isaiah said the House of David shall be as the house of God ( Jesse David and Solomon )Jesus even refers to himself as the root and the offspring of David comparing his kingdom to Davids kingdom Buts its Christ's kingdom that has no end. once starts the opening of the book are the seeds of the sower that is gonna initiate a birth of Christ in All.
  • STEPHEN MEEHAN on Numbers 20 - 5 years ago
    It is interesting to note that while God would not allow Moses to enter into the Promised Land along with the Israelites because of his disobedience, that Moses did eventually enter on the Mount of Transfiguration when he appeared alongside Elijah and with Jesus on that mount. He may yet appear a second time when the two witnesses show up during the Tribulation period, maybe again with Elijah - the two who represent the Law (Moses) and the Prophets (Elijah).
  • Patricia on 2 Samuel 5:24 - 5 years ago

  • Melissa m riley ARIEL SAND THINE TO LEAVE on Hebrews 1:13 - 5 years ago
    Msg i found u key fact its coincidence that the 1 commandment that is specifically centered on god right to our worship is the commandment the whole world seems to have forgotten song imagine if every single week the whole world had continued to observe gods sabbath to cease ordinary activities and worship god as the creator what are the odds (nevereven)read this word backwards reverce that would have been ready to adopt alternate theories of human ovrigins why is the theory of evolution such a hot topic why are both sides of the debate it because they echo the two sides portrayed in the final eveents described by the book of revelation 13 m he provides compelling alternatives to the worship of the true one creator god even forcing people to worship his false system when gentle persuasion fails on the other side there is the final warning message in reverlation 14n that goes to the whole world pbleading with humanity i hope u get this message and may god be with you all
  • William workeman - In Reply on Romans 10 - 5 years ago
    Why did Peter make these comments (Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? 48And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days) after these people where filled with the Holy Ghost? I thought the bible was written by people inspired by God.
  • Sunday Levinus Alaka on Psalms 139:23 - 5 years ago
    David is no accomplice with traitors. He has disowned them in set form, and now he appeals to God that he does not harbour a trace of fellowship with them. He will have God himself search him, and search him thoroughly, till every point of his being is known, and read, and understood; for he is sure that even by such an investigation there will be found in him no complicity with wicked men. He challenges the fullest investigation, the innermost search: he had need be a true man who can put himself deliberately into such a crucible. Yet we may each one desire such searching; for it would be a terrible calamity to us for sin to remain in our hearts unknown and undiscovered.Try me, and know my thoughts. Exercise any and every test upon me. By fire and by water let me be examined. Read not alone the desires of my heart, but the fugitive thoughts of my head. Know with all penetrating knowledge all that is or has been in the chambers of my mind. What a mercy that there is one being who can know us to perfection! He is intimately at home with us. He is graciously inclined towards us, and is willing to bend his omniscience to serve the end of our sanctification. Let us pray as David did, and let us be as honest as he. We cannot hide our sin: salvation lies the other way, in a plain discovery of evil, and an effectual severance from it.

  • Alexander Pacheco on Genesis 3 - 5 years ago
    If God created Adam and Eve in this story and Lucifer was already involved was there some time skip I wasn't aware of? Because there's a whole story of Lucifer to cover with him and his fallen angels and I find it weird they skip right through that as if there's nothing that happened between the time.

    Jesus will never leave us nor forsake us. He is true to his word. Glory to god, praise him while you can. Tomorrow is not promise to no one repent and pray, turn back from your wick ways.

  • Grace - In Reply on Romans 6 - 5 years ago
    Yes, Reba it does.

    The HS is mentioned at least several times in the Hebrew Bible, aka OT, and has different names just like the Father and Son

    He is first mentioned in Genesis 1:2 as the Spirit of God. Why did Moses highlight with specificity that it was God's Spirit since a supernatural being was understood as a type of spirit by all ancient cultures? Moses could have also simply written it as "God hovered over the waters". So, there is more to this plural yet singular Elohim God than what some dogmatic and grumpy Unitarians would laughably insist as evidence for their view

    For the hair splitters, I have another example in Isaiah 63:10 where the HG is clearly the HS. To those who criticise that it is in lower case, that's petty reasoning but surprisingly the NIV Study Bible has it in proper capitalisation
  • Vanessa on Psalms 103 - 5 years ago
    the world will remember you no more but God remembers you, keep his covenant love the Lord thy God with all your heart, mind, and strength, Love your neighbor as yourselves. We praise him and thank Him for all things, people like to think they are greater and worthy of praise, I beg to differ God sees nobody greater then another, live a worthy life for Him, not for man, did He not hear Abel's blood cry out, He hears the righteous who love Him and serve Him. We will glorify Him and sit in His presence, soon enough make sure you have enough oil to keep your lamp burning. God Bless

  • Mishael - In Reply on Matthew 28 - 5 years ago
    I worked on that today. Half is ready. It's really scattered around in the books of much Prophesy. The Day Jesus was crucified, More than 100 prophesies were fulfilled.

    The odds of that happening are more than the stars in the night sky!

    See you tomorrow.
  • T - In Reply on 1 John 1 - 5 years ago
    I can only share the opinion of my personal experiences.

    My dreams in the past have shown specific sin within my life. They pertained to unclean thoughts or desires. I believe the temptation in the dream pertained to the worldy desires within my heart. The deep secrets that we keep. God sees all of them and I believe, in my opinion, that sometimes he shows us. The dream seems to be a test. As you say we don't have the ability to control the dream but what resides within our heart is simply what occurs or is seen.

    As my walk has grown stronger;

    I have found more recently that within similar dreams I was not tempted as before. Or felt in the dream that I did not want to "participate" or see..and the dream ended. A test of the heart and faith now passed?..

    Have the eyes committed sin? If so repent.

    Maybe the Holy Spirit is showing a specific sin.

    Maybe a demon is tempting you through lust.

    Maybe it is God testing you.

    God works in mysterious ways!

    Again, my opinion through personal experience.
  • The Bride of Christ Must Be Ready And Watching For Him Every DAY - In Reply on Luke 21:28 - 5 years ago
    Matthew

    Chapter 25

    1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

    2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

    3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

    4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

    5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

    6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

    7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

    8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

    9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

    10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

    11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

    12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

    13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.



    You need to memorize this so YOU can tell other people. Matthew 25
