That's an interesting interpretation Greg. I understand Lev 18:8 but how do you fit in Gen 9:23 to this event, again speaking about the father?

The word evil has two meanings. One is wickedness by men. The other is catastrophes by God, such as the Judgement by the global flood.

i have heard people say that they are part of a group that ascend and descend into heaven and have conversations with people and jesus i find it hard to answer my friends as i think they are far fetched but i would like another opinion please. they are apparently so elect group that have obtained this right as apparently so can we all and are a part of end times workers

So, I suppose that's why Paul encouraged believers not to judge one another over various matters ( Col 2:16) which are a shadow of things to come, as each one led by the Spirit does according to his belief & conviction. So, No, I don't ascribe to the 10 Commandments, but His Spirit in me I know takes me far beyond them & to all who are led of the Spirit of God.

And by the way, which calendar do you follow & how does that impact in your daily life?

Also, Col 2:14 & Eph 2:15: the Gk is 'dogmasin', meaning 'an opinion, or a public decree': a little open-ended.

May the Lord help us in the study of His Word & I appreciate your time.

g. what then is the response to those who require obedience to God's Laws (for both Jew & Gentile) & also to enjoy Christ's salvation? If we keep the Law, then we are bound to it & its demands (Js 2:10). If we belong to Christ through His Gift of Salvation, then we are bound to His Spirit Who imputes God's Laws in our hearts. Rom 8:1-5: I see the key words here (as pertaining to our discussion) as "the righteousness of the Law" (v4).

Someone has said that there were 600 Laws given for the Jews to obey. I agree that the Law is no way negated or abolished, but the whole essence of that Law, was to bring guilt & condemnation so that Israel might look to God in faith knowing that their ability to keep the Law failed before God. And now, that same Law, but no longer by the letter, is imputed into the believers' hearts enabling them to know, understand & obey them by the guidance & power of the Spirit. Will it still be the 10 Commandments for us to obey? What sayeth the Spirit of God to our hearts? Surely it will be the righteousness of the Law, that which surmounts the letter. Just as the Jew knew the Law forbad adultery, but that Law didn't stop him from what Jesus spoke of in Mt 5:28. Jesus spoke of the Law's righteousness, & this Law is in our hearts that we might be convicted of it. The Jew knew that the Sabbath was Holy with its requirements: the Spirit speaks of the blessed rest we have in Christ, one now for those who have come to Christ ( Mt 11:28,29), & the rest yet to come ( Heb 4:1-11).

Hi again Greg & thanks for your input & trouble you've taken over this very important subject. While our travels are restricted because of this pandemic & being in retirement, I find that I can give some 'extra' time to valuable discussions such as these, as it also helps me focus on specific Scriptures which I might have ordinarily glossed over.

Again, you've raised a number of questions worthy for thought but I will focus on the foundational aspect on which I base my belief & premise: Is the Christian commanded or obliged to keep the Law?

a. to whom was the Law given? Only to God's elect, Israel: ( Lev 26:46).

b. why was it given? For their good ( Deut 10:13); to reveal Himself to His people ( Lev 19:2, Deut 31:12,13); to set Israel apart (sanctify them) as a witness to other nations ( Lev 20:8, Deut 28:1, 9-10); and to reveal humanity's need of a Saviour ( Rom 3:20, 7:7, 8:3,4).

c. did not Jesus obey the Law? As a Jew, He fulfilled it perfectly ( Mt 5:17) & the Law will remain unchanged till it reaches its intended purpose (v 18).

d. if that is so, then why did Jesus have to come & give His life for mankind? What the Law was unable to do, only Christ could do ( Rom 8:3).

e. then what did Christ's sacrifice do to the Law? To those who still keep the Law, they have to obey it perfectly, or be guilty of all (Js 2:10). To those who are convinced that they are guilty under the law, find forgiveness by faith in Christ, apart from the Law ( Rom 3:28).

f. can a Christian then still be under (keep) the Law (putting himself under Jewish Law) & have salvation through Christ's Blood? Impossible, for the Law could only reveal one's sin which lead to death. But now all who are in Christ (Jew & Gentile) are delivered from that law of death, believing & serving God in the spirit & not according to the letter ( Rom 7:5,6).

Bob Hilt,

I am unaware of any more than one wife of Noah.

Scripture states that Noah and his "wife" ( Genesis 7:7, 13) went into the Ark.

Specifically 8 (Adamic) souls were saved upon the Ark ( 1 Peter 3:20).

That would be Noah, his wife, their 3 sons, and the three sons wives.

Is there any Scripture to back up what you are claiming?

It is clear that we are fighting a spiritual war against enemies who are far greater in numbers, intelligence, subtlety, and power than Israel had to wage war against in terms of the Amalekites, the Moabites, and so forth. In addition, our enemy is invisible."Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might."

Bob Grove,

Fornication is not just pre-marital sex.

Where did you find your definition or understanding of this word?

Fornication is the Greek word "porneia" and means "sexual immorality, MARITAL UNFAITHFULNESS, prostitution, adultery; a general term for sexual sin of any king. (Strong's #4202).

Bob, do yourself a favor if you care to understand Scripture correctly. Get yourself a Bible Concordance, which is a Hebrew and Greek dictionary of all words in the Bible.

That's not true, kindly checkout when Muslims came into existence breathren. Kindly listen this wonderful story by brother veath, it's history. The devil is a liar do kindly explain what u mean by saying that the edomites sre like Muslims today... Go you tube and type in , the origin of the muslims and the Catholic Church by brother Veith

Mishael, not to pick a fight or anything and you are right the antichrist can / will change the money.

in 1933 President Roosevelt made ownership of gold illegal. Prior to this the USA had legal gold coins and silver.

Silver coins were removed in 1965 and I remember them as a kid.

I bought 2 large candy bars for a silver dime. What do they cost today.

Yet can we eat gold and silver? They could make it illegal?

I suspect food seeds might be a better investment for the future.

We Gentiles are IN.

The Jews are OUT.

They've been spiritually blinded and made spiritually deaf. They are unable to perceive it.

It will probably be that way until the caught up occurs.

They are being exposed to Messianic Jewish Christians. Jews returning to Israel: many say that they are Jewish believers in Jesus Christ.

We are not the Lambs Book of Life Inspectors. This is a work of faith and obedience.

If they haven't prayed the prayer; they are subject to the tribulation. Plus the blindness and deafness will have been lifted.

I don't struggle with this in my heart. I pray for the Peace of Jerusalem as ordered by God. Simple obedience. What He does with those prayers are His business.

Most daughters are not named in Genealogy unless they are of the bloodline of Jesus.

Some women are named because it ties to the Story of Jesus; or prophesy.

Matthew 18

19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

21 Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

There's a movie you can get through Walmart or amazon: it's about a man whose daughter was kidnapped and murdered. He was very bitter Against God.

He returns where it happened. He was about to commit suicide and a deer walks past the door. He decides to leave but sees a man off the side. Thinking it is the murderer returning, he draws a gun on him. It's Jesus. The whole weekend is about him forgiving God.

If you're having trouble forgiving go get a movie named The Shack. Your life will be changed.

Mule, in reply to Thessalonians 1... those who are without sin, cast the first stone.

I was wondering. If we take out all our cash and coins; couldn't Antichrist change the currency worldwide?

Would Gold and Silver bars be safer? Coins?

I'm not going to be here but I thought I would leave it for stubborn bonehead relatives :/

This for people studying Genesis. I took this route to study and it really opens up some things. I'm not done yet.

If you go to Genesis and as you read along; INSERT the Center of the Page references to other scripture. All the way down each page. Go to the other Books. Read that and also other scripture references from those pages.

The cast out angels became evil like Satan; more like servants to him. They had bodies.

They were drowned after the flood with Noah's ark. Their bodies were gone. They lived on as demons; until now. They have to get inside a sinful human or animals.

God was already recording genealogy that Jesus would be born in the future.

Archaeology has confirmed the Bible. A lot of the giants bones have been confirmed faked; but others are carbon dated and creepy! What people thought was thousands of years was really millions+

This is what I decided for ME about this. I could read books till I'm 80, to piece archaeology, geology and space exploration, or I can do what God has called me to do.

I choose God.

The earth scientists haven't made the connection To the Bible. There are no books, no attempts to connect so I'm thinking we should leave it alone till they do.

It's good to the understanding of what God calls invisible; mystery. We can understand what satans trying to do to the saints of God; Invisible spiritual warfare; demons and people who welcome them into their lives and bodies. We can't even get started until we understand what is our authority against these things! We need the Holy Spirit to tell us the names, their fruit, the demonic personality. They're all unclean.

You can't proceed full steam WITHOUT The Holy Spirits leadership. I've had some experience with it and I can say with conviction; it's not a haunted house with scary exhibits.

We have the authority. Learn how to use it: in Jesus's NAME. Especially in the last days.

Watch some Charles Capps, youtube.

Authority of Believers

What is the Bible definition of an antichrist and who fits the description.

1 John 2:22 - Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. (ALL Jews deny Jesus and that makes them antichrist, if they believed in Jesus then they would be CHRISTIANS. IF you do not believe me call any Synagogue and ask them if Jesus is the Messiah.)

1 John 2:23 - Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.

If Jews do not accept Jesus as messiah, then who is their messiah?

1 Corinthians 16:22 - If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema (CURSED) Maranatha.

DO JEWS LOVE JESUS OR ARE THEY CURSED?

To Every man there is a pastor

20 For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.

Most of us do not respond well to criticism or ridicule. However we always love praise for our efforts.

This is saying that whatever the opinion or outcome: take it PATIENTLY. This was really hard for me to learn! I was like the President: you smack me I smack you back twice.

If you ever prayed, Lord, help me to be more patient..... it will be painful to learn but afterwards you will look more like the Lord. Temperance is even harder; but you will be blessed when you know you passed the test.

Now when something tests me, I say Holy Spirit: what just happened? He'll say, watch and see.

It's hard for people like Peter and I was: Hands flying and we see Jesus pick up some guys ear and put it back on the guy.

Being patient is good. Follow the Lords lead. He leads. We follow.

Google: psalm 104 song

See if any of those are your song

You may have to spend some time googling gospel music Or hymns; lyrics.

I just hum the ones I can't remember well or I make up my own lyrics for the tune. It happens to everyone.

To show us that God is Holy and cannot dwell with or tolerate any kind of sin.

The Ten Commandments give us a clear picture of what God expects. No exceptions. Exodus 20

Jesus gave us 2 commandments

The 10 commandments show us that we are not able to live up to Gods standards; and we need a Savior (Jesus).

Israel will not give up their land.

However, Antichrist will advance to kill them all and they will flee.

Then Jesus's 2nd Coming.

Leviticus 11 NIV. You may eat any animal that has a split hoof completely divided and that chews the cud. ... The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a split hoof; it is unclean for you. And the pig, though it has a split hoof completely divided, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you.

Mishael

I see there is no mention of the NEPHILIM, as mentioned in other Bibles ( eg the Hebrew Bible )

Normally in verse 4

The purpose of the Law was to end self righteousness and unbelief (sin) while allowing escape from death eternal by faith in Jesus Christ and his resurrection. The Mercy Seat covers the law and gives hope of life eternal. The brave can enter through the veil by faith, while time remains.

Greg, well written and explained. one thing more Ham could have done it with what could have been a step mother.

Yes the sin of Ham and Canaan. I always found it strange with all the begats in the bible that the mothers of Noah's kids are not mentioned.

Dear Brothers

My specific question has not been addressed to. I am asking on which day of the week was Yahusha hung on the tree, and on what day of the week did He arise.

Please refer Mathew 12:40.

Very sincerely.

Herman

Hello, yes, it means all homosexuality is a sin, evil, and unnatural and the punishment is death. Fortunately Jesus died to forgive all that all have an opportunity to go to heaven.
