    are those who are left behind have the opportunity to get saved during the tribulation?
  • Paul on Genesis 8 - 6 years ago
    Our Lord often referred to Himself as the Son of Man.

    Our Lord is the Son of Man because He was born.

    And by one man who was not born by this man's disobedience we all die.

    But by one Man who was born by this Man's righteousness death was overcome.

    Consider the greatness of Adam.

    Adam was not born.

    Adam is not the Son of Man.

    Adam is a son of God.

    And Adam having not been born is greater than us all.

    Thus Adam chosen that in Adam we all die and in Adam we are all on probation with God upon the condition of repentance.

    But consider our Lord Jesus Christ who like all of us was born.

    Only Christ was born in righteousness and having no disobedience even unto the suffering of the cross by which He partook of that bitter cup the unborn man Adam could not bear and brought us the better even the first resurrection.

    For Jesus Christ is greater than Adam.

    Jesus Christ is the greatest of all.
  • Rodger butcher on Matthew 21:13 - 6 years ago
    If Jesus says not to buy or sell in your house of worship then why do most or a lot of churches do and will be judged for braking one of God's law if they keep doing it and don't asked to be forgiving.
  • Mishael - In Reply on Genesis 3:1 - 6 years ago
    Not trying to be disrespectful: I think Adam was busy naming animals and plants and left Eve alone too much. Enough time to contemplate "what happens if I eat this". She had encouragement from The Deceiver.

    Adam and Eve were the first marriage. We're to be equally yoked; as a team of horses pulling a cart. That's why they used to say "getting hitched".

    As a team, they both suffered loss for the breakdown of Communication!

    Adam as the head of the family was supposed to lead Eve into rightness and obedience.

  • Backsliding means not going forward - In Reply on 1 John 3 - 6 years ago
    If our "conscience" ACCUSES us after we've already repented and asked for forgiveness; then your Accuser is Satan. His mission to steal, kill and destroy. That voice that accuses is, is spiritual warfare. Ephesians 6

    You need every piece to protect your self.

    Have you read Luke 15, about the Prodigal son (or daughter)? If that describes your experience, then you are forgiven and may now turn and freely embrace Gods Love and forgiveness. He saw you coming back home to Him, way before you did.

    You are hidden in His hand and he's not going to let you slip away. The robe the prodigals father put on him, is the robe of righteousness (you have right standing with God again). The adornments are Gods favor which had never left you; no matter what you did.

    It's the willful repeated backsliding that burns holes in our conscience. If you stop feeling that conviction, it is Much Harder to return to the Father who loves you perfectly.

    That nagging you feel is The Holy Spirit at work in your conscience to help you Will to return to right standing. Cling to Him with all of your strength.

    We mess up daily (even me :), which is why we run to 1 John 1:9, to confess those things and be forgiven. A psalm says that the Lords Mercies are new and refreshed towards us every morning! We can start our days thanking and praising Him for that.

    Our forever home is in heaven. We're not to love this world system that is going to pass away. We begin living our lives for heaven now. Do the right things. ALL of heaven is on your team cheering you over the finish line!

    If you sin you have an Advocate with the Father. Jesus. If satan accuses you in court, God hears the case. Your Advocate (attorney) checks The Lambs Book of Life for YOUR name. It is; and the case is dismissed for lack of evidence; be cause all of your sins are covered by The Blood of Jesus!!

    Reverence this knowledge. Keep it close.

    Pray & Praise daily, the Lord of Glory.
  • Mary on 1 Kings 7:42 - 6 years ago
    Speaking on the will of God...having faith, studying His word, meditating on His word. You will know His will because Hebrews 8:10 says......I will put my laws into their mind, and write them on their heart: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people He has given us the tools necessary to live accordingly. Be Blessed
  • Confused - In Reply - 6 years ago
    I would sincerely like to thank each one of you for taking the time to provide insight and help in further understanding. I truly can feel God's love and encouragement through your responses! Thank you for the bible verses that correlate directly with the word of God to provide answers. I genuinely am appreciative from my heart and soul. It's time I devote myself further to God and begin "fighting" the "good fight." It is time I proclaim my love for God to my friends who don't believe and to put those aside who have no faith in our Lord and Saviour. (I will pray for the encouragement and word from God to later speak to them as an invitation to receive God's love and blessings.) After posting my questions last night I prayed and spoke to God. I then read some forums and verses that fit perfectly into this topic. I was overcome with peace and the desire to serve the Lord stronger through his commandments. There are things in my home to get rid of such as certain spiritual books, movies, music, art etc and I understand the reasoning to rid my life of those things. I have had a very difficult life. I believe there may be the possibility of a generational curse upon my family.(Boy could I talk about this in depth.) With that said it only makes me want to work Harder to follow the word of God. Also, in regards to a difficult life I blame noone but myself for living a life of the flesh. I feel more hope today. More faith. I feel that even though it seems the world doesn't care about me that through your comments I have been uplifted and today feel a bit renewed, if in anyway, through focus and intention.

    Again, thank you sincerely to each person for taking the time to respond! I want you to know that it helped in many ways! Please pray for me and also for my dog who is showing illness. My dog and faith in God are the reasons I am alive today.

    God Bless each of you! Thank You

  • Adam - In Reply on Exodus 20:4 - 6 years ago
    Hello, you're on the right book and chapter. You can see Ex 20:3,4,7 lists the first 3 commandments which occur before keeping the Sabbath. So, you can read it clearly in the chapter and it should answer your question about the order.
  • Conchita on Exodus 20:25 - 6 years ago
    I was raised in the RC tradition, and taught that the 4th Commandment is "Honor thy father and thy mother." Why, in this Bible trivia, is the 4th Commandment "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy?" In the RC tradition, that is the 3rd Commandment. I compared this chapter of the King James version, with the Douay Rheims version, and, both versions seem to state the 4th Commandment as I was taught. I am confused. Please clarify this for me. I was taught the Commandments as follows:

    1. I am the LORD thy God, thou shalt not have strange gods before me.

    2. Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD, thy God in vain.

    3. Remember thou keep holy the sabbath day.

    4. Honor thy father and thy mother.

    5. Thou shalt not kill.

    6. Thou shalt not steel.

    7. Thou shalt not commit adultery.

    8. Thou shalt not bear false witness of thy neighbor.

    9. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbors wife.

    10. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbors goods.
  • Mike on Genesis 1:20 - 6 years ago
    Genesis 1:20 KJV And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

    The waters in verse 20 speak of the living waters of the Spirit that bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life.

    This speaks of the joy that comes abundantly after the hearing of the Word of God as spoken in the living waters of the Spirit.

    Many will receive the Word with joy. The "moving creature" = "sherets" (swarm) which comes from "sharats" which means "to wriggle". To "wriggle" means "twist and turn with quick writhing movements." We "dance" so to speak with joy within our hearts after the hearing of His Word spoken from Heaven in the Spirit...the living waters.

    Abundant joy comes. Our mourning turns into "dancing" (Hebrew: machol which comes from "chuwl" which means "to twist or whirl (in a circular or spiral manner)". Many will "wriggle" with joy.

    Psalms 30:11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

    The "fowls" that fly above the earth are our words of praise and thanksgiving to Him above when we hear His knowledge as spoken in our opened hearing of Heaven (in the open firmament of Heaven).

    We sing praise unto Him as birds/words of praise "fly" above the earth.

    (12) To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

    In the hearing of His Word of Truththe living River of the Spirit of God, everything that lives and moves. that is, rejoices shall live. Their souls shall live as they rejoice.

    Ezekiel 47:9 And it shall come to pass, that every thing that liveth, which moveth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live whither the river cometh.
  • Lost 1 on 1 John 3 - 6 years ago
    verse 20, the way it is described in the commentary says God condemns us if our heart does, I always thought that is meant, the opposite. I have a hard time forgiving myself for backsliding for so long staying away from our Lord and sinning for years knowing it was wrong as i did it but i have since repented and turn completely away from my former live but still struggle with the past. I though this scripture meant that even though my heart condemns me God is greater than my heart and knows all things and knows i've repented and has forgiven me. Self -condemnation is a horrible way to live no joy, no peace but i used to take comfort in that scripture knowing that God had not condemned me even tho my heart does. I've not found a timetable for how long a backslider has before he has no chance to come back, and if I am an apostate why am I under such conviction? I'm in that place where I cannot move stuck in the most miserable of places, am i not accepting forgiveness or can i not get it anymore?
  • Pastor ronald on 1 Peter 1:7 - 6 years ago
    this context is not about losing our Salvation
  • IwG - In Reply on Genesis 3:1 - 6 years ago
    Sorry for that mistake.

    Genesis 2:16

    "And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:"

    Genesis 2:17

    "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die."
  • W Ingram on Psalms 15 - 6 years ago
    God Morning:

    Take the test in Psalms 15 and let us each see where we stand with the Lord. If our individual standing does not meet the lipmus test found therein, proceed to Colossians 3(1-5) and follow those instructions and pray and retake the test daily. ( Psalms 77:13) Loving God and your neighbor is the lipmus test,and the test is an open book test,which merely says: prove yourself by dividing the word of God,hear a little and there a little,and always remember Psalms 23:1....

    Jesus is Lord and Testator.

    Shalom

  • Mike on Genesis 1:17 - 6 years ago
    Genesis 1:17 KJV

    (17) And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

    God sets His 2 greatest commandments in the firmament of Heaven.in our opened, expanded hearing (HEAR, O Israel..) of the Spirit that comes from there. We are to do what He has set/established in the kingdom of God so that others see His Light shine in the darkness of this earth.

    Mark 12:28-31 KJV

    (28) And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?

    (29) And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

    (30) And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.

    (31) And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

    Thou are not far from the kingdom of God...

    Mark 12:34 KJV

    (34) And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question.

    When we do His commandments, we shall shine as the stars giving His Light upon this dark earth.

    Daniel 12:3 KJV

    (3) And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

    The nations shall come to His light/glory that they see arising upon us...

    Isaiah 60:1-3 KJV

    (1) Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.

    (2) For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.

    (3) And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
  • Mike on Genesis 1:14 - 6 years ago
    The lights (the 2 greatest commandments) in the firmament of the Heaven (the expansion of the hearing of Heaven) are for signs, seasons, days and years.

    For days and years..they will prolong our days upon this earth.

    Deuteronomy 6:2 That thou mightest fear the LORD thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged.

    For length of days and long life (literally, years of life) the doing of His commandments do add unto us.

    Proverbs 3:1 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:

    (2) For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.

    They shall multiply our daysas the days of Heaven upon the earth:

    Deuteronomy 11:21 That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.22 For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;

    The doing of His commandments shall give us fruitful seasons

    Leviticus 26:3 If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;

    (4) Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.

    They are for signs.you shall bind them for a sign upon your handremembering to do them always.

    Deuteronomy 6:8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.

    In doing so, we shall shine as the stars turning many to His righteousness.

    We shall be His many infallible signs to this dark world that Jesus is truly alive as we live.

    Acts 1:3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:

  • Robert Marino - In Reply on Genesis 10 - 6 years ago
    Hi Aidan,

    Can you show me 7 years somewhere in the New Testament. I see 3 1/2 years in Revelation. Am I missing something on that? You are correct. 70 weeks were fulfilled. that is how I see it. The word AFTER in verse 26 puts Jesus' death right int he middle of the 70th week in verse 27 because 7 weeks were already fulfilled before the mentioning of the next 62 weeks.
  • Robert Marino - In Reply on Genesis 10 - 6 years ago
    I believe a double fulfillment of the time of jacob's trouble is coming but we are the ones already beginning to be persecuted. There are three things Biblically we are persecuted "because of".



    1. For MY NAME'S SAKE. You have to be a follower of Jesus.

    2. For godliness sake. The new US Embassy in Jerusalem just blessed the gay pride over there.

    3. For my word's sake. They follow the modern Sanhedrin 70 just like they followed the oral law of the 70 elders instead of Moses most of the time throughout old testament history. Modern Judaism is Talmudic and kabbalah.

    I don't see how a natural nation fits what Jesus said was true Biblical persecution nor does the modern state fit any of it. Most pre-trib teachers do what I call "Newspaper Eschatology" but when you do it and bring stuff like this up, they ignore you and act like what you are saying is not true. Chris, when you tell them there is more natural Jewish blood in Palestine than in Israel, they don't know what to say but two DNA tests done by two different Jewish DNA scientists have proven this over the last 20 years. They plan on doing a study in Iran. That is a whole other subject that isn't going to be talked about by Perry Stone, John Hagee and others who want to ignore the 16-legged, 5-eyed pink elephant in the room. If it doesn't fit their theology, they won't talk about it nor do they want their followers to learn about it. They purposely keep black Jews from Ethiopia and Etrithea from moving into Israel. I can go on and on. This stuff is written in their own newspapers like Hareetz, Jerusalem Post, etc. A good example of a famous pre-trib teacher that did this was Jack Van IMpe who I watched blindly for years. He always quoted what he wanted to quote out of those two newspapers but when I started seeing what else they said in their own newspapers I came to realize Van IMpe didn't want his audience to know the things he didn't want them to know because it would have created problems for his ministry.
  • Robert Marino - In Reply on Genesis 10 - 6 years ago
    you:

    Then Mt 24:15: "the abomination of desolation, spoken by Daniel" arises. Is it referencing Dan 12:11 or Dan 9:27, or both? You mentioned that Dan 9:27 applied to Jesus Who "causes the sacrifices to cease, etc.", so the mention of the 'abomination of desolation' in Mt 24:15 becomes intriguing.

    Me:

    Yes, abominations is plural in Daniel 9:27, not singular. Can't use that one and stay intellectually honest. I don't have all the answers. I just try to never add or take away from the word of God. And there is that nasty "S" in the original manuscripts in Daniel 9:27.

    What do you think of the eagle symbol the Roman Army had? Could that be the where you see the eagles gather? We take it as literal eagles. But Jesus is going to incinerate the earth which wold cleanse everything. Just a thought I just thought of so as Inigo Montoya in the Princess Bride movie once said to Vizzini, "I don't know your thinkum is what your thinkum is" or something like that. LOL.

    YOU:

    Those in Judea are to 'flee to the mountains, etc.' ( Mt 24:16-20): reference to the Jews. And after this, there will be Great Tribulation ( Mt 24:11). Of course, this Tribulation hasn't happened yet, unless the rest of us missed it altogether. So all these show me that Jesus was applying His prophecies specifically to Israel, with the broader implications to the rest of us."

    Me: Fulfilled in 70 AD with signs as historically written of outside of the Bible. ALL the Christians in Jerusalem escaped when the Roman Army made its last push. 1.1 million unsaved Jews stayed in Jerusalem and were slaughtered, and 90,000 were sold into slavery, some mothers were eating their children to feed their other children. About 2 million were killed leading up to and including this final battle. So about 2/3rds of the Jewish population worldwide was wiped out. Many scholars believe this was the time of Jacob's trouble because percentage-wise way more Jews were killed than the Holocaust and in a much much worse way.
  • Robert Marino - In Reply on Genesis 10 - 6 years ago
    Good Morning Chris. WE finally got a much-needed all night shower up here in the north.

    I was jsut saying that it would be a day late and a dollar short if the antichrist has already risen to power for an unsaved Jewish person to read what has already been mostly fulfilled in Matthew 24. Remember there are three different greek words in Matthew 24 for the word WORLD. The word oikenume means Roman Empire so the apostles did preach the gospel to the entire Roman Empire by 70 AD. That has been fulfilled. But like I said, I believe there is a double fulfillment with many things in this chapter that we in our time will experience, one of those being preaching the gospel to the whole world.

    I have evangelized many of Jew, and they hate the New Testament. They call the Old Testament, the ONLY Testament. I hit them with "Then why does the Bible Numerics phenomenon underlie the entire text of the New Testament which proves God's authorship?" I don't get an answer. Try that some time when trying to reach them whether converted Khazar jews from southern russia from 800 AD that are the ones who mostly live in Israel today or the more natural Jews, most living in other countries. Pre-trib teachers don't like mentioning that one to their followers.

    get back to you on the other thing you said.
  • Romeca - In Reply on Psalms 85 - 6 years ago
    He means whoever trust God with their life will not be lost. And whoever choose to seek revenge and walk according to doing worldly things once u know better will lose. U will mot obtain all God has for u but His grace is sufficient.
  • Wilburn jenkins on Psalms 91 - 6 years ago
    Psalm 91:9 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; Explain" Because thou hast made the LORD". LORD is the interpretation of The Tetragramaton YHWH Unpronounceable in Hebrew, meaning; did exist, exists and will exist. KJV interprets YHWH as LORD.all capitolized. So my question is; Who has made the LORD. Help!

    Matthew 23:12
  • Mishael - In Reply - 6 years ago
    Also, after you read what I sent earlier: you need to remove anything from your home that could be considered an idol. The first thing the Holy Spirit did WITH me was to get rid of anything I had that was occult (because that is what I was delivered from).

    Some had to be burned so no one else would read the books. Acts 19:19.

    Most likely you'll do a walk through in your home and He will show you what has to go. Fire is dangerous & illegal, so I tell people to fill a box and purchase a can of paint and pour it over books, etc. You will feel Him helping you to be free from spirits of confusion. See... Satan is the author of confusion. That was his doorway into your mind.

    I'll write again later. May God bless you with Mercy and Grace.
