    Even Born again believers have the seed of sin remaining in them, these bodies as we know them, cannot carry this seed into heaven. Heaven has been restored, Satan has been cast out and is here on earth and Satan is an ally to our flesh. The length of chain is not described in Revelation and should be kept in mind.
  • Tithes and Offerings - In Reply on Job 20:15 - 5 years ago
    2 Corinthians 9:7

    Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

    The tithe which is 10% of your paycheck, is given to your church. If you don't have a church then send it to the minister who teaches Scripture to you and feeds you the Bread of God (Bible).

    I believe that offerings (not the tithe) are between you and God. It could be money, groceries for the needy, your own time helping others, etc. You dedicate your offering to God, in the name of Jesus. Speak it forth so it's recorded in the Book of Remembrance, Malachi 3:16.

    I don't know what you mean by wilderness, if you want you can hit the REPLY button and let me know how to pray for you.

  • G S ALM - In Reply on 1 Timothy 2:4 - 5 years ago
    thank you for your reply , i don't think it answers my question, hope you dont mind if i askit again this way

    you say we were bought with a price but the translation says the cost was corresponding ransom,( price)

    was it the same imperfect price for imperfect people, or a greater price for imperfect people, corresponding to what.

    for instance , 1 ton weight in exchange for a 1 ton weight is a corresponding exchange, if jesus was perfect how could perfection be equal exchange for imperfection .
  • AFTER THE TRIBULATION - In Reply on Revelation 20 - 5 years ago
    Some people who gat saved during The Great Tribulation, will escape being murdered by the Antichrist. They never took the Mark of the Beast.

    They will be taken to heaven as born again humans. Their bodies will not be transformed into eternal bodies yet. There will be marriages and children born.

    After the 1000 years (?) Satan is going to be loosed to tempt THEM to follow Him.

    For me, I would not want to be tempted by Satan after he just got released from 1000 years of Hell.
  • REVELATION 1616 - In Reply on Revelation 16 - 5 years ago
    Read Revelation chapter 16 in your Bible.

    It the place where the Final War on earth will be fought.

    *****

    16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

    I highly recommend watching Oral Roberts teach the Book of Revelation on Youtube.

    I know people snicker and laugh about Oral, but his teaching abilities are anointed.

    God blesses us every time we read the Book of Revelation. You'll see that scripture when you begin reading it.
  • Mishael - In Reply on Matthew 15:26 - 5 years ago
    Jesus came to preach & teach to the Jews first. It's a prophesy. Read verses in your center of the page reference columns.

    The disciples were told to wait in the upper room for Pentecost: to receive the Holy Spirit and power.

    The Gentiles had to wait until Apostle Paul got saved, filled with the Holy Spirit, and told his ministry would be to the Gentiles.

    This great website has a Commentary Box you can click on to read explanation of any scripture in the Bible.

    pull up your verse in one of the 2 Search Boxes. Click and it turns yellow. Scroll downward till you see the Commentary Box.

    Open it up

    You would've seen that the prophesy said Jesus would be sent to the Jews first.

    Why? Because the Jews and Romans were going to crucify Jesus; just like John the Baptist was killed.

    I make mistakes too, so just apologize to Jesus. Humility is good for us :/

    It makes for good teachers.

    The Holy Spirit is our Teacher. Like me, ask Him to help you understand what you're reading. He will show you amazing things!

    He is the ONE the disciples were waiting for.

    If we hunger and thirst for righteousness; we will be Filled
  • Growing in Grace - In Reply on Philippians 1:27 - 5 years ago
    These are things that the Lord wants His believers to be involved in. Some are personal growth as a believer.

    *****

    Matthew 25:

    41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

    42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:

    43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

    44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

    45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye DID IT NOT to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

    46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

    There's lots of groups that have outreaches. I helped another lady run the Benevolence ministry: distributing food and clothing to people in need. I loved it. Met many nice, but hurting people.

    We do this as unto the Lord. It's like an offering of your time and love.

    Choose what is agreeable you.

    Here's some scriptures on personal growth. The hardest one to learn is patience, for me

    2 Peter 1:5-7

    Galatians 5:22-25

    Proverbs 31
  • Kelechi Okeke on Proverbs 11:26 - 5 years ago
    Please I want to know in details what proverbs 11 vs 26 mean?
  • T - In Reply on Isaiah 55 - 5 years ago
    Amen!

    The time is at hand. What we see as accidents or coincidences can simply be God knocking or calling.

    I hope you will return here daily. Don't let that bookmark slide down your list.

    I love the daily scripture and look forward to it each day! As well as all of the info in this forum.

    It has helped me!

    God Bless
  • T - In Reply on John 10 - 5 years ago
    The 144,000 refers to 12,000 people from each of the 12 tribes of Israel. Not literal Israel but spiritual Israel.

    They are virgins/undefiled.

    Revelations 7

    Revelations 14

    Hope that helps!
  • T - In Reply on Philippians 1:27 - 5 years ago
    Hi Angela,

    Good question and I can understand why one would ask.

    The answer is: NO!

    No man(or woman) can or will ever be perfect. The Bible clearly teaches us that we all have sinned and have fallen short.

    Striving to be perfect will bring anxiety and condemnation. We can't be perfect for it is literally impossible. We can't be Jesus, but we can strive to follow in his footsteps. When we slip we must confess it to Him and repent.

    We must learn from our mistakes and strive to be better. Be the best version that we can be and improving when we see the opportunity.

    I hope that helps!

    God Bless
  • Julia Saxton on John 21:17 - 5 years ago
    Jesus asked Peter three times because He was restoring Peter through forgiveness for the purpose of sending him forward with a renewed spirit revealing to him what is important in discipleship and strengthening him.
  • Andrew Kingsly Raj - In Reply on John 10 - 5 years ago
    They are the Israelites (didn't believe Jesus Christ) before the rapture. After that when they see Anti-christ they will be warned and accepted Jesus Christ.
  • Joan Bruno on Joshua 4 - 5 years ago
    Thank you. This story was placed on my heart to review all day, my regular fast day. I don't know why. God will reveal by His grace.
  • Travis - In Reply on Luke 22:18 - 5 years ago
    Interesting point you make explains why through hurricane katrina the usa residents to get relief had to support israel even now with trump they have to sign they support israel for covid_19 payments and why trump made jerusalem the capitol of israel,so your point on israel makes some sense
  • Angela on Philippians 1:27 - 5 years ago
    Hello as being a save Christian, do we have to strive to be perfect, or are we already perfect according to the word of God, for the Word of God says be ye therefore perfect as your Father in Heaven is perfect?
  • Greg - In Reply on Hebrews 2 - 5 years ago
    Bendito Palavra

    Concerning the Law;

    The everlasting Law God established with those that desire to be called His children still stands.

    The 10 Commandments still stand.

    Any time we sin we are under the Law.

    Everyone sins: Everyday!

    Blood ordinances were fulfilled by the death of Christ ( Matthew 26:28, Romans 2:29, Colossians 1:14)

    Priestly duties connected to the sons of Aaron were fulfilled in Christ. ( Hebrews 8:1)

    The Temple was destroyed; as promised: ( Matthew 24:2)

    Deuteronomy 29:29

    "The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children FOR EVER, that we may do all the words of this law."

    1 Chronicles 16:17

    "And hath confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an EVERLASTING covenant,"

    Ephesians 2:15

    "Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ORDINANCES; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;"

    Hebrews 7:12

    "For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law."

    Matthew 27:51

    "And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;"

    All has not been fulfilled.

    All will not be fulfilled until the return of Christ.

    Believe the words of Jesus.

    Mathew 5:18

    "For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."

    Concerning works;

    Why would Jesus care to evaluate the WORKS of the churches that are on earth at the end times when He comes back if they don't matter? ( Revelation 2:2, 9, 13, 19. 3:1, 3:8, 3:15)

    Also look at:

    James 2:14-26 - "Faith without works is dead"

    Revelation 14:13

    Revelation 20:12
  • Nancy on John 10 - 5 years ago
    I thought that when the end comes only 144,000 people will go to Heaven. than some woman brought it to my attention that 144,000 are Virgins. is this correct and where is this in the Bible
  • Greg - In Reply on Revelation 20 - 5 years ago
    Eva Rabon,

    The good people and the bad people go through the great tribulation.

    Matthew 10:22

    1 Corinthians 15:52

    Revelation 2:26
  • Mishael - In Reply on Luke 22:18 - 5 years ago
    I will surely check into that. I thought that Jesus was at a dinner with the Pharisees-in which Mary Magdalene rushed in to show gratitude by washing Jesus's feet in tears and anointing them with expensive ointment. Jesus was arrested the next evening. By dawn He was ordered to be whipped 40 lashes.

    I'll write later on it.
  • Fred on Matthew 15:26 - 5 years ago
    Matthew 15:26 made me ask, why does it appear that Jesus is snubbing this woman (trying to get rid of her/ speaking a racial slur/ telling her- you know what my kind thinks of your kind ) Could we be seeing that Jesus is "fully human"? We know He sometimes was annoyed and irritated with His disciples. He preaches "meek and mild", but in this case he comes across as "mean and wild". I always need to reflect on the whole counsel of scripture which is so "crystal clear". Jesus models giving up your rights for others and being a safe place for others who come into your space. Over and over again He tells us that He came to bring all into the community of the redeemed, that He wants none to be lost, and that if we want to be great in His Kingdom we should be the least (so others can be lifted up). He tells us to be done with unequal relationships. How clear His message- both Jews and Gentiles need grace. How clear that HE is all about bringing all people together and putting them on the same plain . His WORD is the ultimate anti discrimination message. His life, the "Divine Reversal" of racism.
  • Arum P Manoharan on Revelation 16 - 5 years ago
    What is Armagadon?
  • Carleton - In Reply on Hebrews 2 - 5 years ago
    Unless one keeps the Sabbath, the same may not be keeping the commandments. And if one is not able to keep the commandments then the Law requires death.

    For this reason Jesus came to fulfill the commandments and enter into His rest. Those that are born again by Faith in His works may also enter into the Holy of Holies and be seated in His Mercy Seat that covers the Law.

    We can rest in His commandments, all of them, in love and in faith as God looks upon His reconciled Lamb's account that we by His Justification can live in. Thus the born again believer can have eternal life in comfort like Lazarus the poor man.

    And we can gather with brethren of the like, precious faith whenever we can, by His grace and worship freely in Spirit and Truth.
  • Carleton - In Reply on Luke 22:18 - 5 years ago
    There are more than a few born again believers that believe that it is much later than we tend to think in the Book of Revelation. The same believe that the virgins with oil in their lamps are ready for the Bridegroom when he comes.

    Revelation 22:20

    He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly, Amen.

    Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

    Revelation 3:11

    Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man may take your crown.

  • Nuance smith on Isaiah 55 - 5 years ago
    Helpful information. Lucky me I found your site by accident, and I'm stunned why this coincidence did not

    came about in advance! I bookmarked it.
  • Carleton - In Reply on Hebrews 6 - 5 years ago
    I found the Mercy Seat to be just the right fit.

  • COVENANTS OF GOD - In Reply on Luke 22:18 - 5 years ago
    He used wine to represent the blood of Gods Lamb in the instituting of the New Covenant. After Jesus died on the Cross, the Veil (which is Huge) was torn from top to bottom, signifying that the death of the sacrifice, The Lamb of God; that God had provided, was completed. The New Covenant was in force. The Old Covenant had passed away: was torn in half.

    The Blood of Jesus RATIFIES the Covenant.

    You can slowly read the Covenant that God performed with Abraham in Genesis 15

    This is the Covenant that gives Modern Day Israel, the Deed to the Land of Israel.

    It's not recorded in a Courthouse. It is recorded in the Bible; and has been there for thousands of years.

    It's a legal covenant and the entire planet knows this. That's why they plot and try to force Israel to sign it away: in the 2 State Solution. You should track the progress of that on JerusalemPost on the internet every day.

    The whole world is come against Israel settling and building on land that God has clearly given them!! The Palestinians KNOW that land belongs to Israel. Peace in return for breaking Covenant with God. That's what Satan wants. He thinks he will have defeated God if he can make that happen.

    Look how small Israel is. It's tiny. Ask yourself WHY is it necessary for the World to go after Israel for this land? It's a heavenly war! It's A COVENANT that GOD ratified HIMSELF.

    Jesus paid IN FULL WITH HIS OWN BLOOD to secure ALL SOULS who would come to God for salvation: For GOD so loved the world: John 3:15-18

    I'm going to say it cause no one else wants to: Joe Biden has said to news media, that he intends to push the 2 State Solution, or cut ties with Israel.

    "Blessed is the Nation who Blesses Israel."

    If he does that, then the USA is going to suffer even more than it is now. Then we'll have a bulls-eye drawn into our backs.

    Everyone must hurry, change your mind now, Be Born Again NOW! Get your loved ones saved ASAP. Wake up. Quit listening to national news!!
  • Bendito Palavra - In Reply on Hebrews 2 - 5 years ago
    By Jesus Christ's sacrificial death and resurrection we are no longer in bondage to the demands of the law ( Colossians 2).

    Hebrews chapter 4 explains our rest (ceasing from our own works and resting in Jesus Christ). Today is the day of salvation.
  • Carleton - In Reply on 1 Corinthians 13:10 - 5 years ago
    It is interesting also, that (as I remember) all of the accounts where speaking in tongues occurred, were with Jewish believers becoming Christians as a witness to each other (at that time) of the power of the risen Christ and his Holy Spirit.

    Today we have that Witness in our lives as Christians, if we, like the early Church of Jewish believers, hold fast to the Faith once delivered.
