Psalm 23 is one of my favorite passages of Scriptures. Over and over again the Bible calls us to stillness. In this hectic, frenetic, busy, noisy world we need to get away to a place where it is calm. A place where it is quiet. A place of quiet rest. We need a time to be alone with the Lord. Studies have shown that meditation or prayer does perhaps more than anything else to remove stress.So I would urge you to come aside to a quiet place serval time a day.Find a place where you can sit down, read the Word of God, meditate upon it, pray to Him, Be still and know His love, His care, His mercy,

and His grace for you. Do that, and God will indeed, bless your life.

Thank you for your testimony. It is a lot like mine. We thank God for Jesus! Amen.

Rick Markell: I know folks are going to want to put me in a closet, but you have a LOT of questions about end time matters.

I've always thought that we should just skip all the wondering and trying to sort through time tables and all that. You can't delay to the last minute what you should do today. NO ONE knows the exact moment. Not even Jesus. Only the Father knows.

It's going to be peaceful at first ... and then like a woman's birth pains...it's going to be fast and violent.

Get in now! All in. No doubting. No time to sin a little and jump back in. Be firm in your choice.

Now go on YouTube. Type in: Dwight Thompson what to do if you miss the Rapture.

Pick the one that is 1 hour 59 mins long. He's a friend of mine. Kinda wild but truly sincere. Let me Know what you thought?

know your bible.

When you come into this website; in the search boxes for scripture, put in your search. The passage will appear. Skip down past it and you will see a COMMENTARY

Bar. Hit that & you can read what the scholars have written. Very enlightening.

( 1 Timothy 2:7) Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.



Because Paul saw our Lord on the road to Damascus, does not automatically make him an apostle or Mary Magdalene and above 500 brethren at once would be apostles.

( 1 Corinthians 15:6) After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.

Does not all God's creation reflect His Holy Order?

What man calls the law of gravity and the laws of physics are they not the law of Christ ordered to sustain life?

God is not the author of confusion.

I believe man is confusion but God is order.

( 1 Chronicles 15:3) For because ye did it not at the first, the LORD our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order.



( 2 Chronicles 29:35) So the service of the house of the LORD was set in order.

Later, and we are given in scripture an exact time line, Paul was ordained an apostle by the laying on of hands Peter being the chief apostle and none of Paul's writings would have gone forth among the saints without Peter's, James' and John's approval in God.

What do the scriptures say regarding the replacement of Judas?

They replaced Judas on their own without being told to do this?

Peter clearly says why Judas was replaced:



Speaking of Judas, For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell therein: and his bishoprick let another take. ( Acts 1:20)

Therefore by prophesy, or by the Holy Ghost declaring God's Word, was Judas replaced.



And if Judas was replaced by the Holy Ghost, or Word of God, others of the apostleship would have been replaced after leaving or dying or martyred, not just Judas, as Peter said, the book of Psalms declares.

So we know after Judah was replaced by Matthias, Matthias took his place among the eleven restoring the apostleship to 12 because God's house is a house of order.

Look for the order.

GEORGE: In Luke 14:1-6

The Pharisees were again trying to catch Jesus being too liberal on law issues. This incident happened on a Sabbath day. A guy walks in with dropsy. Jesus asks if it's lawful to Heal (anyone) on the Sabbath day ? Big intake of breath (aha we're going to nail Him!). Jesus heals the guy and let's him leave. Jesus says: which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen into a pit, and WILL NOT immediately pull him out on the sabbath day??

I say that Jesus is showing us that Church or Sabbath happens when it happens. If you work on weekends and can't get off; if your Church holds services on Wednesday or another weekday; then you can attend on those days.

God knows your intentions and He knows what days you work. If a fellow church member needs corporate prayer, you'll be available on Wednesdays.

If He makes exceptions for donkeys and cows, why would He not bless you for assembling together on a Wednesday?

Underline passages where you see that Pharisee-like plots were foiled by a loving and practical Son of God.

If you tithe...do it with bliss and happiness on Wednesday.

What about the Tribulation period and the anti Christ's take over of the earth.

The king James says "in the sight of the Lord" Other versions say "before the Lord"

What is the significance of humble ourselves in the sight of the lord. Is it position or place?

I would say that our life Today, is the reason for the baptism in Matthew 28:19-20.

I believe the original sin is revealed in Isaiah 14:13-15.

Do you think that "him," is used two times to include "the last Adam" in 1Col 15:45?

Do you think that is may be because, Eve, begins with an E.

The first thing God did was create TIME. He is the Alpha and the Omega: the beginning and the End. Original language here says 'In Beginning'. Not: In The Beginning

God exists inside and outside of time. He sees everything.

We're not under the law. Find proof in Matthew chapter 5. Jesus was teaching that some basic principals were still in force.

If either one is cheating sexually then grounds for divorce are established. Men are not held less accountable.

If the man is violently beating his wife she can leave the marriage. Christians are called to be at PEACE. Also, as much as is possible be at peace with everyone.

If a legal separation or divorce results, the Bible mentions a time for reconciliation. Ecclesiastes...rend and mend.

If divorce happens and no reconciliation, The mother of the children is best off raising her kids alone till they're of majority. Don't tell the kids "who caused the divorce"; it only causes problems. Keep it secret.

If she remarries she needs to NOT ALLOW the stepfather to act as if the children are biologically his. It causes problems. If kids need correction, then the mother administers it. Husband supports her decisions. Kids are geniuses at playing insecure parents against each other.

If you can't accomplish that, then ladies do not marry again till kids are launched.

I may not be Dr Phil but this way WORKS. We are Christians. Dr Phil ministers the world principals, to the world. Worldly people are clueless about Gods Word.

The dialogue is from the beginning, in 2Peter 3:3, and by verse 8; the KJVReader is on the fourth day, looking to the fifth day and sixth day with the six, "thousand years," in Revelation 20:2-7."

As well, I've not given any further comment on 2 Pet 3:8, as I believe that I've given the natural & logical understanding of that verse as it ties in with the preceding verses, esp, vv 3 & 4.

The dialogue is from the beginning, in 2Peter 3:3, and by verse 8 the KJVReader is on the fourth day, looking to the fifth day and sixth day in Revelation 20:1-7.

This interpretation comes from Paul's demonstration of the "hidden," wisdom of God, 1Co 2:4 & 7 KJV.

Who is Jimmy Swaggart?

Psalm 19:14 is a great prayer

where in the bible that it show Jesus change the Sabbath to Sunday worship

Yes it is a sign of the end. The rapture will soon come.

Hello Paul,

Matt. 28:19-20 is speaking of water baptism. However, water baptism does not save a person. There has to be a spiritual baptism or Spiritual birth. Back in Matt. 3:11, John says, I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

You see, John baptized with water. But Christ baptizes with the Holy Spirit (Salvation), and with fire. And fire baptism is a baptism of judgment. That's not the baptism we want! A person who gets water baptized should already be saved. Water baptism is a testimony before others that there has been an inward change in their life (Spirit baptism).

I hope this is what you are asking. If, not I would be happy to respond back if you're looking for something else.

The Lord is truly my Shepherd I shall not want. He will make me lie down in green pastures and lead me beside the still waters

Amen

For our Bible study, we need to study 2 Corinthians 4: 15-18 can you please send me something to study or to discuss in class?

I quoted John 19:30 to show how I know Christ's work is finished. The KJVB is about the history of the days of Creation, as introduced in Genesis 1. "Sin," in the KJVB, is anything not compliant with the laws of the creation of this Universe. Information about the hidden wisdom of God may be found with the ten times, "from the beginning," occurs in KJVText, after the book of Proverbs, 1Co 2:7.

Amen that's a good thing , I guess what I was trying to ask is when you are baptized should you be baptized in the name of the Father in the Son and the Holy Spirit or in the name of Jesus ?

Thanks for sharing that Chris. I would definitely go with your answer over mine. Yours is more sincere. I hope this is what Cyndi was looking for. Either way, I was enlightened by your answer. O.T. is definitely not one of my strong areas, so there's much I can learn there, and I appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
