Soul means jeopardy of life. In other words ( in law) a danger of being on trial for a criminal offense. This is why we are here to find our wickedness and rid ourselves of it. So clearly man was put here to rid ourselves of sin. We should not blame Eve for our sins. We need to blame ourselves for our sins.

Mcw: In addition to Bruce's comment;

Mcw: After 1:27 we read in 2:5 "...and there was not a man to till the ground."

It is difficult to get something out of this part; but I think of Moab as of our distant relatives in Christ, as Lot was to Abraham. We live in Countries, and have some family roots, that were at one time in ages past, of our family in Christ; but have over the times dried up and withered spiritually, and have become completely integrated into the world, and are now enemies because of Jesus in us.

Our high calling of God in Christ is to walk with the heart and mind of Jesus our Lord through this world, and not to any more yield ourselves to the easy ways of the old man who lived without a conscience toward God. These are the very things that are so deplorable to the devil heathen nature of the ungodly, and the reason for their relentless opposition, contradiction and persecution of Christ.

Hi April, I didn't see anything wrong with your post, I was not offended. Trust in the Lord and He will direct your paths.

I understand from the commentary that Satan was allowed to attack Job's mind as well as all the things in life that he had, and his health. My house burned down - my son and I lived in a hotel for three months, with only a few possessions in my car. When we moved back in our house, the next day my car was stolen. Last week I lost my baby at 3 months preg. I am at risk of cancer. GOD IS still GOD

Disciple our Lord Jesus explained the parable Himself from Matt. 13:27-42 where God sends His seed, children to earth and the wicked one Satan sends his tares, children to earth. It has nothing to do with our hearts receiving the word. No need to explain it. Christ spoke to these same ones in John 8:44-47 where He said you are of your father the devil.

This chapter was brought up when I googled "What is more important, your family or soulwinning?"
It seems very important that God's work comes first! If not at least at the same time!

And some would say Christ is not Christ.

Philip. 1:27 - Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

David has been a man after God's Heart even from youth. He cherished playing instruments and singing unto the Lord. His numerous Psalms exemplify this. This shows how pleased God is if we sing His praises and adore Him through playing of musical instruments.

Why did they cover the animals in sackcloths?

Adam called her Eve.To him she was the Mother of all the living. He had never seen any other humans. They lived in the Garden of Eden.It is not confirmed by God.She is the Mother of all Promise which is the root word for living. It is also interesting that they became living souls.This is not mentioned in man created on day six.man in day 6 clearly were hunters. Adam was a farmer basically.

I am so confused,from what I understand a concubine was not a virgin and the man offered up the concubine for the mens entertainment purposes,and although she was a concubine,not one with god for her actions,what these men did was horrifically disgusting and an abomination,yes whoring around is a sin and all but she wasn't KILLING and beating people,and she will answer for her own actions.....wow.

A Person does not have to know one Word of The Bible. All they need to know is that Their Sin will send them to Hell. That comes about when a Believer shares The Way of Salvation. They may have never been in a Church or seen a Bible. The Spirit will tug on Their Heart. Without knowing one Word of The Bible,you can bring others to Salvation with your Testimony. Let us bring them in. The Day is-----

How awful,:-0,I am speechless,and for anyone to say she deserved it is horrible,we are not always people who make good choices but to say someone DESERVED to be beaten and raped,is such a demoralizing thing to yourself and others,she may not of been a classy lady,but she did NOT deserve what she got,I am appauled anyone would say such things or think them,What if it ws someone you knew?,wowsers!!!

lu2677: FEAR, is for the lost,the unsaved,one who is doing wrong. When a person is Saved,All fear is going. The fear of Dying,of Judgment,of---? There is no fear in love but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath Torment. He that Feareth is not made perfect in love. 1John 4:18 / The Day of Salvation is like no other,The Day He Entered My Heart! Oh! What a Difference He makes! WOW!!!

April, I didn't see anything wrong with your question.I was not offended. He wants us to come to his sanctuary in "truth" John 14:6. I have been told that my posts do not comply with their rules. I am sorry if I offended anyone. May the Lord give you understanding of ALL of His word. It is a process, search for wisdom everyday. Test every spirit with His word. I was hopeful that I could help U.

i like this chapter

Mcw: Have you forgotten to read Genesis 2:1? : Thus The Heavens and The Earth were finished and all the "Host"of them.

Proverbs 16:1,2,3-4; V1"The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue is from the Lord. V.4"The Lord made all things for himself,yea even the wicked for the day of evil."Here we learn that God causes the spiritual condition of the heart, and what we speak. "day of evil" is the Day of the Lord. Romans 11:36"For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things." Free will;NOT

Jesus loves us all and died for us and rose from the dead. He is almighty God robed in flesh. I obeyed Acts 2:38 and received the Holy Ghost with the initial evidence of Speaking in Tongues like on the day Of Pentecost.

In the beginning, not God's but that of an organized earth, God has always been

I am blessed with the power shown by the God of order

This is such a good Bible site. I just went to 'more', then 'various Bible topics', then clicked on 's', scrolled to 'studying the word', and up came no less than 17 vs. on STUDYING His Word. And, there are many more allusions to studying His throughout the Bible, Josiah the reformer when the Word of God was read to him, when the decree of Cyrus was found, and so many more.

As far as not needing to read the Bible for salvation - then why did Jesus give us Jn.5:39 (His own words); Acts17:11; Col.1:10. During His earthly ministry that's ALL He did - was quote scripture (no, what He said wasn't ALL written down yet, but - He knew it would be; Jesus was omniscient - all knowing) As it came from His mouth it was - scripture..

Hi April,I contend for the truth of who God is; His works,His faith,His love, His judgments.Typically most "preachers"of our day want to keep their pay check (hirlings) so they do not teach the whole counsel of God. All inspired scripture is given for reproof,correction,instruction. If Knowing all sides of God;wrath,hate,testing,"does not help people"why do you think he had it all written down?

What we should already have as an ingrained fact in our minds; is that which the Lord already has told us of, everything to expect, and that all of our Brethren, before and after, commonly must experience; which is for the proving of our character, to whether we will be counted worthy to enter into the kingdom of God, and be called the companions of our Lord Jesus Christ: To him that OVERCOMES...!

Anna - I guess your Bible says - "locked"; the KJV just says shut. That's okay, they very well could have been locked - for fear of the unbelieving Jews.
