Christ was the very multiplication of God, an absolute son not a token son. I shall be unto him a father and he shall be unto me a son,I WILL MAKE HIM MY 1ST BORN ETC And it was the FATHER himself that said that everything HAS TO MULTIPLY AFTER ITS KIND THUS THE SON OF GOD WD HAVE TO BE GOD THE SON, IF Christ is not GOD the son then the FATHER lied about multiplication of every living thing/BEING.

Love is patient!

On the subject of the fear of the Lord: easily understood is having the deepest respect for Him and all His ways. Our God is a consuming fire. He is a jealous God, not to be mocked. Don't be concerned of a person that can take your life, but be VERY concerned with Him that not only cantake your life, but can banish you to hell. He demands the deepest respect, which is the fear of the Lord.

Karoline cont. The original curse from Adam of the fallen world in which we live, will be lifted. The servants in verse 3 are angels, redeemed folks and all other creatures who have not rebelled or have been redeemed from all possibility of rebellion in all eternity. Hope this helped to understand these 3 verses.

There's nothing new under the sun. That which has been, is now! The Preacher made an entire Book for the intent of summoning those who are preoccupied with this present evil world in every conceivable way, and calling them to consider their ways and turn to God. All the world acts as if their time will continue for ever, and so do they more and more cast off all restraint to do whatever they want.

Karoline:These describe the rivers, streets and fruit of the NEW JERUSALEM. Besides the 12 great rivers in the midst of the 12 great Broadway's going thru the 12 gates into all parts of the earth, there will be all kind of fountains of water of life in the city. On both sides of the 12 great rivers flowing for 1500 miles thru the great Broadway's will be trees of life. There will be no more curse

The things that were written about the world of the beginning falling into utter ruin because of apostasy; and the subsequent disaster of the rise of Nimrod that altered the whole Psyche of mankind by planting in them the devil's seed of the heathen Antichrist mind; and the words of the Apostles which said, Even now are there many Antichrists, whereby we know it is the last time: show a constant.

Mother01;the revelation of Jesus Christ is about past present and future...The beasts represent the four Gospels being preached...Lion=Mathew;Calf=Marc;Man=Luke; Eagle=John...Satan has been cast to earth already and is the ruler of the air...The short time isn't three and a half years,it's a short existence in this age compared to eternity...God bless all here...Meditate in the word day and night

Hi Gerald; I was reading your recent posts, and I'd like to say I agree with most everything you write. The popular modern-day belief in a 7 years tribulation makes one suppose it to be some strange and mysterious sinister event breaking in on an otherwise okay world; and really comes out of great ignorance of ancient world history as it is recorded in the Bible and blindness about the world now!

Gerald; "Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed." 1 Cor. 15:51-52 We must put on immortality; for flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.
God (Elohim, 3) is One; In one mind and one accord, there is no discord amongst them. Example: A man, a woman are two, but when they get married they are one. Father sits on His throne, Jesus sits on His right hand, and the Holy Spirit is at work on earth. Have Faith

john 8-58 before Abraham was I am. that is jesus Christ,john17-5
and now o father,glorify thou me with thine own self with the
glory which I had with thee before the world was.
Emanuel GOD WITH US MATTHEW 1-23
ISAIAH 9-6 READ IT THIS IS JESUS CHRIST
GOD MANIFESTED IN THE FLESH
REPENT OR HELL AWAITS YOU DENYING THE DEITY
OF MY LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST

Val Hawn; If I were you I'd get away from the Jehovah's Witnesses as fast as you can. They deny the Eternal Divinity of Christ, and follow the teachings of a man (Russel) who rewrote the Scriptures after his own ideas; very bad! Jesus said that He saw Satan as lightning fall from heaven, ( Luke 10:18); and that we should not go after those who say Christ has already come, ( Matthew 24:21-31).

Steve read carefully 1Corinthians15:50-58. Says only the dead will be changed at the last trumpet,in Revelation 11. 1 thess 4:14-18 says the same thing. Says we who are ALIVE AND REMAIN UNTILL THE COMING OF YHE LORD WILL BY NO MEANS PRECEDE THOSE WHO ARE ASLEEP. Revel.chapter11:17,18 says talks about the One who is and was and IS TO COME. This the last trump and he is judging and rewarding saved

Read chapter 6:1-5 in Book of Galatians, 1Corinthians 5:1-13, Matthew 18:15-20. These deal with the sinning Christian and the unsaved. Lord says we are not to judge the unsaved but only the saved. We are to RESTORE a Christian back into the fold. We must be a mature,spiritual Christian not walking in sin ourselves. We all sin but as mature christians we should confess and forsake our sins also.

Chapter 12:7-12 in Revelation is where Satan was cast to the earth. Happen at the MIDDLE of the seven yr tribulation. Verses 13-17 says Satan knows his time is short and goes after the Jewish people and the christians. Read verse 17 carefully. I believe the 1st seal is the beginning of the tribulation. Read the 5th seal, these are the dead christians going thru the tribulation. Chapter7 vr 9 r us

If we are raptured at the begining of the 7 yrs, as most think, then why after being cast out of heaven at the middle of the 7 yrs, and he knows that he has a short time,3 1/2 yrs, chapter 12:12 of book of Revelation, why is he going after the Christians that are living at that time? There are so MANY scriptures that prove we are going thru the 7 yr trib. To be continued later.

I believe we will go through the tribulation as it says in Matthew 24:1-44 especially vrs 29-31. At the middle of the 7 yrs the anti-christ will stand in the temple saying he is God. Book of revelation says there will be a war in heaven,12:7-17 and the satan and his angels were cast out of heaven and has come down to the earth. Satan will not have access to heaven after being cast to the earth.

As it was with David, and the handful of godly Princes who reigned; so it was for Josiah, that the most of the people did not fear the Lord and walk before Him in truth and holiness in the same way. So while the righteous lived it was a benefit that brought the blessings of mercy and quietness to all; when the godly are taken away, the people must then give account of themselves before God.

Revelation 4 speaks of things to come and how the elders and the beast glorified God with their worship. The 4th beast had wings and was saying repeatedly holy, holy, holy Lord God Almighty. And the elders bowed down and worshipped Him. Oh what a wonderful passage of hope in a time like this, the end times.

"And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was an hungered, and they which were with him;" Picking ears of corn and rubbing them with your hands to eat is not breaking the Sabbath! The Lord rebukes the knit-picking and fault-finding hypocrite by pointing to examples of mercy for our necessary wants. No commandment exists demanding we go hungry!

"Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience." James 1:3 In the context of all that is here being said by James what were the "temptations" in which they were exhorted to rejoice in? Because of the persecution that arose over the matter of Stephen, all but the Apostles were driven out and scattered, to look for new homes as strangers in foreign Countries. The relentless and merciless pursuit by their own countrymen even into far away lands, was terribly cruel. Now adding the temptations that are more common to us all which have to do with our character and sanctification and the chastisements necessary for growth and coming to maturity this is a very excellent and serious instruction! Jesus spent 3 4 of His time in Ministry healing the sick and delivering people from the hold of the devil all in things for their comfort and well being in this present evil world, and in our present condition of humiliations and temptations! Whatever our troubles, and however we are put to the test walking in truth trusting in the Lord over all we see and feel and experience is the walk of victory and overcoming! Let us consider the things that will be for one another's well being and comfort, and regard our own trials and torments as those things sent by our Father for our healing and freedom, and the end everlasting life.

I am studying with the Jehova's witnesses and they say that chapter 8 reveals that Jesus became king in 1914. That is when war broke out in heaven and Jesus cast down satan to the earth. Can someone reveal this to?

It is a call for people to know God. To turn from evil and recognise that knowing God will lead to a better life.

2 things stand out to me: (1) Daniel himself has a similar dream that mentions thi 4th kingdom and the 10 toes. Daniel 2:41 and 43 mentions that it is miry clay, and speaks of "these mingle with the seed of men."
Also, the 10 toes in also mentioned in Revelation 13- in conjunction with the Beast.

Old St. Nick should not have taken over Jesus Birthday and His deity Jesus is the reason for the season. And not man according to Rev. 2:6-But for this thou hate the deed of Nicholas which the Lord hates. Note: commercialization the Christ. A male child was born to rule the nation with a Rod of iron in righteousness, this Child was the Christ, cough up to God and His Throne. So All gifts comes God

This chapter removes all doubt that Jesus is indeed the son of God as shown in the parable here. Also, there is a resurrection for all who have died including our loved ones. Also this chapter as others in the gospel shows Jesus' answers could not come from any ordinary person and could not be made up by anyone. Jesus is indeed the true messiah even the blind world still cannot see the truth.

Known unto God are all his works and words a man can receive.norhing except its given him from above. Some are given by God of his spirit the expresssion of his character what i mean is he spake and it was done. It.is done in truth and it is.the spirit that bears.witness because the spirit is truth.
