V. 1 - " ..... shout unto God with the voice of triumph." Amen to that; Acts 2:38

To J. Evision - Praise the Lord!! He did the same for me 4 yrs. ago, in April. I had developed a B-A-D smokers cough. The night before I decided to quit - I kept me and my husband up all night with my cough, and we have separate bedrooms (we're in our 70's) and they are at opposite ends of the hse. 2 years later I came back to church.

This is a quote I found online somewhere, didn't note where it was (sloppy);
"God loves you just the way you are, but He refuses to leave you that way. He wants you to be just like Jesus." Acts 2:37-38

To Sean - You may have gotten help on your problem by now with associating with 'unbelievers' ..... ? I send you these in case you've never seen them 1 Cor. 6:12-15.

To Michael, 5 days ago - I think maybe Peter was a bigger failure than you - before the day of Pentecost in Acts ch. 2 when he gave the1st message of Jesus' new church - failure when he DENIED Jesus 3 times; you haven't denied Him. Just go to Acts ch. 2 - read vs.37-38.

4th beast takes the 1st 3 into itself and becomes a one-world power. This is why the political beast in Rev 13:1-3 has the characteristics of the 3: Lion, Bear, Leopard. It's the same beast, but in Daniel we get more insight into how it comes together. 1st 3 kings/kingdoms (horns) are plucked up (subdued) by roots by little horn. "Babylon" of end times is spiritual world system Jerusalem centered.

(The fish and the loaves just my own thought. Neither here nor there, thought someone might appreciate it.) But yes, all I am saying is, regardless, the two candlesticks are present with the 2 witnesses. And no one need fear, just like in Egypt, none of God's children were hurt by the plagues. It will be the same during Trib. "But there shall not an hair of your head perish." Luke 21:18.

My commend is on verse '8', there's a hurt and angry feeling I have on thinking these individuals, fashion themselves in the opposition of God, delight themselves in displeasing God. Their glory is to rob you and I from receiving God's favors. They gave up their fear of God, and now trying to rob us of our fear of God. They choses to be a parasites rather than being a servants and sons of God.

Rev. - the 7 churches - I don't understand just the7; when there are churches everywhere in that area, and all over the world. Maybe these 7 are just 'representative' ..... ? I do know the 7 'angels' are the pastors of these churches. There may be something to it, but the fish and loaves sounds like a stretch. I do know '7' is a favorite no. of God.

Irene, your answer to Martha is not right! First; if you knew the Scriptures, you would know that the Saints will still be in the earth up to the coming of the Lord; and that it is for His purposes in judging the world, and in sanctifying His own people! Second; the "falling away" is NOT the "catching away!" A falling away means APOSTASY, and the catching away is His taking us out and changing us.

This is a very Clear Indication how blind man made religion is to the Things Of God. Purely because man's sinful fleshly desires continuously seek after these things with ungodly vigor. The other thing that stands out also is, the Lord speaks favor upon the Righteous, who in the Broad Spectrum of God's Will, MUST Preach Repentance and Salvation to Sinners, while there is yet time.

hi can somebody help me to understand old testimony

That's exactly what I needed God bless you continuously

the book of genesis tells us more about the power in the word of the Almighty God, his love for us and how able he is in doing all that we need. i appreciate the God that i serve which the Almighty God, the God of Abraham and the father of our Lord and savor Jesus christ. i love you all.

It is notable that Abraham did not tell anyone else about what God had asked him to do. He knew it was God and did not need anyone else's opinion. When God speaks to us we should not hesitate and debate with anyone else, but trust Him completely.

Verse 4. The candlesticks are churches ( Rev 1:20). Christ was only happy with 2 of the 7 and little doubt it's Smyrna and Philadelphia. This shows us the approved churches are here with the 2 witnesses. The other 5 Christ warns will be deceived and spewn from His mouth if they don't care to learn. 2 fish (meat) and 5 loaves (bread with leaven), maybe? (Just supposition on that last bit.) :)

This verse is amazing, very comforting, Praise the Lord!!

I have anxiety. So when It happens I think of this verse and I know that my God is with me all the time know matter what hapens He will protect me. One of my favorite verses

We should claim Psalm 91 to all the persecuted Christians around the world!

Whenever I read this my eyes are filled with tears, Thank You Jesus for saving us and this world with your precious Blood!!

I've learned so much from the book of Proverbs. And it has helped me with so much that's going on in my life. I say this because this is my second time studying the book of Proverbs and I've fallen in love with it.

Praise the Lord for his goodness, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah!!!

God is awesome He delivered from drinking alchol cold turkey I know longer have the desire.God also took smoking cigarettes from me Years ago Cry to him we are his kids and he is concerned and he cares Read Psalms 37 :5 .everyday if you want to be delivered from bad habits. God's word will not return unto him void. GIVE HIM THE GLORY !

This is the most comprehensive chapter, a one-stop shop of dos and don'ts for Christian living. It is the charter that Christians who are saved by grace must learn to live by.

As to acknowledging who Jesus was - the angel in Matt. 1:23 confirmed it " ..... his name shall be called ..... Emmanuel ..... " (God with us."), Jn. 1:14; 2Tim. 3:16.

Thomas, a Jew like Jesus ( Deut. 6:4), also acknowledged who Jesus was, " My Lord and my God." Just as Peter said Jesus was the CHRIST (the anointed one).

God is awesome...God is faithful...God is God all by himself, Trust God

God is so precious and awesome..he is my protection and strength..keep trusting God for whatever you may need....

To Bruce - Thank-you for taking the time to answer my query about "..... you will know; impossible not to know." I've known for2 1/2 yrs.; I'm just sorry you couldn't help me more (had I not already been saved) by giving me salvation scripture - such as Matt.28:19 and Acts 2:37-38.

Glory to God, we are delivered from the minister of death and condemnation. The law is done away (v. 11). Condemnation is done away. The Holy Spirit is the minister of life and righteousness. The letter killeth but the Spirit giveth life. Thank you Holy Spirit that You never come with condemnation. You always reveal the blood of Jesus. Thank you Lord for the glorius freedom of the childeren of God
