    Precious friend, Naresh. You do realize reading and studying are two different things? I would suggest "reading" to be 3-5 (or more, IF you wish...) chapters a day and that will take about a year to "read" the Whole Bible (KJV). This is good so that you can "...live By EVERY Word That Proceedeth Out Of The Mouth Of God." ( Deuteronomy 8:3) ( Matthew 4:4) ( Luke 4:4)

    For life-long "studying" I recommend starting With: "What God Is Doing Today, Under GRACE, And Specifically WHO HE IS, And HIS Salvation For us," found in Romans Through Philemon, KJV, prayerfully And Carefully, and study According To The Following Bible "study" Rules: ( 1 Corinthians 14:40) ( 2 Timothy 2:15) ( Deuteronomy 4:2) ( Deuteronomy 12:32) ( Proverbs 30:5-6) ( Revelation 22:18-19 KJB!) ( Acts 17:11) ( Isaiah 28:10) ( 2 Timothy 3:16-17) ( 2 Timothy 3:16-17) ( 1 Corinthians 2:13)

    The Best "Interpretive" Commentary On The Bible Is The BIBLE Itself!:

    NEVER ever interpret The Many Plain Scriptures by the "few" difficult verses, But, ALWAYS Always Interpret the few Obscure/Difficult/Dubious verses By ALL Of The MANY Plain and Clear Passages Of God's Pure And Holy Word!

    Finally:

    "Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do ALL to The Glory Of God!" ( 1 Corinthians 10:31)

    Naresh, hope this helps on your reading/studying journey, and saves you from a lot of Confusion of the enemy...

    Loretta God Created all things in the beginning after the council of His will and since God knows everything he knew what was going to happen and what he had to do to fix it. That being said everything he created I.E. angels and man had freedom of will. Lucifer in the beginning was Top angel or messenger when transgression was found in him He changed into the devil or satan. In the garden of eden the serpent one of the descriptions for how satan works tricked Eve and gave the fruit to adam. In the garden Adam had complete control over Gods creation When the serpent i.e. satan tricked eve and they broke Gods only commandment all that authority and power became the devils Gospel of Luke 4:4 The devil said to Jesus christ all this power will I give thee for that is delivered unto me and to whomsoever I will I give it. Now thank God that Jesus Christ bought back everything spiritually that the enemy stole and Gods will will be done on earth as it is in heaven in the end revelation.
  • Dianne - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Leroy I don't see in the bible where satan was ordained to that position but I do see where he stole it, Gen. 3:1-6 which is where Adam and Eve were tricked the power and authority was given him. Look at Luke 4:5+6. Also Jesus Christ in John 10:9 summoned up the adversaries intentions, steal kill destroy. Then the deliverance our Saviour next verse I am come that they might have life and have it more abundantly.
  • Dianne - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Oseas consider this John 4:24, Gen 1: 26+27, lost spiritual connection after Gen.3:1-6, they did not physically die they spiritually lost connection to God. Before that time Adam had all dominion and power, gave it to Luke 4:5+6. Bought back by Jesus Christ Jn. 10:9+10. Adversary the thief, steel kill and destroy. Some things to consider by scripture in context to subject matter.

    Greetings in Christ JESUS,

    Chris, you brought a biblical deep matter, it is not easy for us to speak about "Satan as an angel"in the mysterious times in the Garden of Eden and with the presence of Adam and Eve or the man and the woman,by the way, there was an Eternity in Eden before this current gap of 7 thousand years or 7 millenniums of this current world of Devil, in part already fulfilled,whose world the crafty Satan,or artful Devil,offered to JESUS in the temptation- Luke 4:v.5 to 8.Check it.

    What you said is very very interesting, mainly about "war between Jesus and Satan for the glory?". When JESUS was tempted, the Devil knew that JESUS was the heir of GOD, Satan knew that HIS CURRENT DEVIL'S WORLD would be conquer by JESUS and His army or His people- Revelation 11:v.15 to 18 and chapter 12. In fact, Satan tryed to anticipate and deliver his kingdom to JESUS under his satanic condition, but JESUS rejected the Devil's offer, because JESUS had a strategy in His War against Satan. What did JESUS do?

    He called the Devil to be near Him as one of the 12 apostles through the person of Jude Scariots. JESUS needed a betrayer among the 12 apostles. JESUS was and is Omniscient, JESUS knew that Judas was a devil, a demon- John 6:v.70- and JESUS ordened to give the bag of money to Jude-the demon-, he was a thief and did steal the money that was in the bag.

    From this point ahead, all know what happened in the life of JESUS having Satan at his side, and to defeat him on the cross. God has his ways in this War against Satan, now remains the battle against the three unclean spirits like frogs that come out of the MOUTH of a satanic trinity in this current time, even from now on: Revelation 16:v.13 to 16.

    Be careful and get ready because there will be a great spiritual battle day after day, from now on or in days to come.
  • Dianne - In Reply - 4 years ago
    To Jackie according to scripture that is correct because His goal was and still is to be worshipped like the Most High God only to be defeated By our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ for us who choose to believe. Which is why in Corinthians He is called god of this world notice little g, something else the True God our father is owner but rulership was handed over by Adam and Eve Genesis downfall. That's why in the gospel of luke 4: 5+6 the devil said to Jesus Christ the kingdoms were given to him. The moment Adam and Eve disobeyed God they handed over that power and authority to satan, in contrast that power and authority for the believer was bought back by Jesus Christ Ephesians 1: 19+20. At least that's what I understand from what I've read.
  • Dianne - In Reply on Psalms 101:2 - 4 years ago
    From what I have read in the scriptures, first the last enemy to be destroyed is death, apostle Paul. Second Jesus Christ was the first fruits I.E. first person raised from the dead permanently. In genesis from dust thou art and unto dust thall shalt return, also in death the body decays the soul life or breath of life ends when a human takes his last breath. Then we come to the spirit, if a person is born again the spirit I.E. goes back to where it originated from. When Christ returns those asleep in Christ I.E. dead will be raised up and those alive will meet Him in the air, thessalonians gathering together changed in an instant, and go to bema to be given rewards for our faithfulness to the word not condemned for our mistakes paid for by Jesus Christ, all others will stand in last judgement of Just and unjust in revelation. This is my understanding, and for me it fits with all of scripture. I do not believe the true Gods will is to kill or else why didn't his Only begotten Son who was and is our example of how to believe and what to do. Also there was no sickness sorrow suffering or death in the bible until the serpent i.e. the devil in the garden tricked Eve and Adam and handed over power and authority of this world luke 4:5+6 that's when he became 2 Corinthians 4:4. Also in the gospels Jesus Christ said the prince of this world cometh and hath nothing in me. This is what I've gathered so far
  • The Ministry of Angels to believers - 4 years ago
    Psalms 104:4

    Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:

    Luke 4:10

    For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee:

    Matthew 26:53

    Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?

    Hebrews 13:2

    Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

    Luke 4:10

    For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee:

    Psalms 91:11

    For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

    Job 34:16

    If now thou hast understanding, hear this: hearken to the voice of my words.

    Acts 27:23 - For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, Psalms 91:1-16 - He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. (Read More...)

    2 Kings 6:17

    And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.

    Mishael=they were angels.

    If you need assistance, healing or protection; pray directly to God, in Jesus name, and ask God for angelic help through the trial. We cannot order the angels ourselves, nor can we worship them ever.

    *they hearken to the spoken word of God; they enjoy praise and worship music and singing to the Lord.

    If your home is dark with spiritual warfare? this is how to shine in the light of Gods love.

    Has anyone else had experience with the ministry of angels in the believers life?

    I had one save my life actually more than once.

    Praise God!

  • The Grace of God and The Law - In Reply on Luke 4 - 4 years ago
    There is Law, and there is Grace. Jesus was criticized for picking fruit on the Sabbath, or praying for the sick.

    God made it more simple than some people realize. Whichever day your work week STARTS is your "Monday." Most people in the USA work a 5 day week, but if yours is different; you can choose your DAY OF REST. Which usually involves attending Church. Lunch can involve eating and discussing the sermon that morning. Make your own comments on it like we do here. Try not to delegate that. Everyone should should be able to comment upon the scriptures.

    God is omnipresent so he's in all churches no matter what day or what time.

    In Genesis it was work 6 days and then Sabbath: the Day of Rest. (Church day).

    In our modern culture we work 5 days and play 2 days. Church may be optional in some families. :(

    More important is to find a church you feel welcomed in; hear the Word of God in sermon; praises and worship; tithes; fellowship after.

    Even better, get involved with some kind of "ministry" as a member of Christ's Body. The men usually have "breakfast meetings" some set day.

    God is saying for us to Rest. Time to study the Bible. Pray for family or friends. Be kind to your wife.

    I wish people would realize the Ten Commandments originated in the time of Moses. God covenanted with the children of Israel. It was in force until Jesus began his ministry. He reaffirmed the commandments in Matthew 5. Matthew 22:36-40. I think the Pharisees hated Jesus because he wasn't as strict as they. Loving each other and our neighbors is hard, for some people.

    Consider these things and choose God. What did He say? How did Jesus respond? We're following Jesus, as his disciples in 2021. There is NOW no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.

    He's not going to gig us for what day we go to Church. We are under Grace. Period.
  • Being Flexible and Faithful to God too - In Reply on Luke 4 - 4 years ago
    Sometimes we make it harder to understand. Many voices. Just as people nowadays may work in shifts.

    God just desires we set aside the 7th day to spend with Him. Ideally at Church with other believers in a corporate gathering, so we can worship, pray for the sick and those with needs.

    Some churches operate every day of the week in different capacities and ministries to the community around them. Sabbath means, Rest.

    (from Hebrew shavat, "TO REST") is observed In Abrahamic religions, the Sabbath (/sb/) or Shabbat (Hebrew: ) is a day set aside for rest and worship.

    If you are required to work on Sundays:

    >>>The case does not say that Christians have no legal protection against having to work on Sundays. They have the same rights as any other religious group not to be discriminated against.

    The Tribunal itself said in an opening paragraph:

    "It is [not open to an employer] to require staff to work on Sunday and thereby cause disadvantage to those who are Christian "unless the employer can show the requirement is objectively justified." Just ask if your schedule can be changed, to be off on Sundays. Don't hire on and then demand a different schedule, if None is available. You'll lose legally if you push it.

    God is way more flexible than people. He just wants us to rest in his love and spend time with Him (Bible). Attending Church is how we learn and grow up in Christ. However, if we do not practice "Family Altar Time with our children, and replace God with football games; they will not follow God willingly."

    It's different for each individual. We are not under the Law; but under Grace. The 7th day after your work week started, is your Sabbath day. Google churches in your area and their meeting schedules. If you have split work schedules, you may have to accommodate to church meeting times.

    It's to our advantage to attend Church when the church meets Corporately. If your family needs much prayer, for these crazy days we're living.
  • S Spencer - In Reply on Luke 4 - 4 years ago
    Hi Melvin.

    The Sabbath is a day of rest.

    Reading your comment it seems you already know that. You have liberty

    So go on and rest!!

    Romans 14:4-5. Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.

    One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. LET EVERY MAN BE FULLY PERSUADED IN HIS OWN MIND.

    Colossians 2:14-17. Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

    And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

    Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:

    Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

    God bless.
  • Melvin on Luke 4 - 4 years ago
    In the fourth commandment of the ten commandments, GOD says REMEMBER THE SABBATH AND KEEP IT HOLY, My question is, what day is the actual day of the sabbath. The bible says GOD created the world in 6 days and rested on the 7th... and we are also to use that day as the sabbath. Now it is said since the aposile gathered on the first day(after CHRIST death and resurection) we now worship the sabbath on the first day. Should I beleive in what the Apostles did and worship on a first-day sabbath or should I listen to what the word of GOD says in the old trstement? PLEASE help me because I want to do whay's right. 1rst day sabbath or 7th day sabbath and please explain to me why.
  • Brother Dan - In Reply on Matthew 28:1 - 4 years ago
    I do not believe the bible specifically states Saturday is the Sabbath. But I have also not seen mention of the other specific days of the week (ie. Wed, Thurs. etc.).

    The Jewish people have always observed the Sabbath as Saturday. Jesus was a Jew and he observed Saturday/Sabbath as well.

    Most everyone in the world will agree that Sunday is the 1st day of the week. Check all of the dictionary's and they will state that Saturday is the last day of the week.

    So the last day, or 7th day of the week is Saturday and has been for centuries.

    Here in scripture below reference to Jesus preparation for burial prior to Saturday/Sabbath.

    Mark 15:42

    "And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,"

    Exodus 20:11

    "For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it."

    Luke 4:16

    "And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read."

    So God rested on the 7th day, and he gave a gift to us, the 4th Commandment, to also rest our body and mind from our normal weekday working activities, among other things to pray, give thanks and reflect on God. A day to breath! It really is a wonderful gift!

    God Bless
  • Building Up The Body of Jesus Christ - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hi Carolyn. If we have needs, we're to stop by the Church office and make known our needs. I worked in 'benevolence' in a church for 3 yrs.

    If you read through gifts, Ministries, helps; God has called people to help others. To be the body of Christ on this earth.

    Someday we'll be in heaven and all Christians will attend the Bema Seat Judgment handled by Jesus. No one goes to hell. They lose rewards.

    1 Corinthians 3:9-15

    2 Corinthians 4:13

    According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

    For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

    Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

    Every man's work shall be made manifest: for THE DAY shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.

    If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a REWARD. (Search: 5 Crowns)

    If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself SHALL BE SAVED, yet so as by fire.

    COMMENT:

    Question we ask ourselves honestly: what are we building with?

    Are we building up the Body of Christ?

    Jesus: we are to be imitating; doing. If we can't Go Ye, then maybe equip those that are? Commit to pray for the laborers to be sent into the Harvest? Luke 10:2

    Isaiah 61:1-3, Psalm 147:1-3, Luke 4:18-21

    * Matthew 25: 31-46*

    I don't know anyone who gets it right all of the time. I don't. There are many great needs these days, and it's going to get worse. We elected leadership that does not know what a budget is for. Step 1: Make your requests known to God.

    I'll post the 4 Horsemen of Revelation tomorrow. Book of Revelation will commence whether we believe it or not. Google Lists. Lots of people really work hard on making scripture easier to read.
  • Chris - In Reply on Luke 4:5 - 4 years ago
    I'm unsure whether you've checked the Greek rendering of these passages, but they appear very similar, using the same root verb.

    Gleaning from the Greek Lexicon, in Luke 4:1, the word is 'egeto' from the root, 'ago' (to lead, to bring, to carry).

    In Luke 4:5: it is 'anagagon', from the root 'anago' (to lead up, to bring up). So the emphasis here is on the direction: 'Up'.

    In Luke 4:9: it is 'egagen', again from the root 'ago' (to lead, to bring, to carry).

    So, it seems from the Greek, the distinction is not very marked, as each of the references point to Jesus being led or directed by the Holy Spirit (into the wilderness), & in His temptation, led/taken/carried by Satan. It would also be correct to suggest that in all three instances, Jesus was miraculously removed from his original position to those other positions (viz. the wilderness, the mountain, & the temple's pinnacle), rather than Him walking or climbing to get there. So, I don't think we should be troubled that Jesus was somehow not in control of his Will to concede to the will of the others.
  • NYOU46410GMAILCOM - In Reply on Luke 4:5 - 4 years ago
    Adding to that frankly the satan was not authorized to offer jesus the world it was not the satans to give so maybe the satan was asking th elord how do you want me to live on the earth your world lord jesus so i may not offend you and jesus asked him to learn to grow food and clean water and harvest plants and nuts and seeds and those things lest we be left with no food these are not the facts but the interpretation of what the satan meant by talking to jesus about the earth he was in this world where i am in my mind i am suffering for i know not what to do jesus tells himlearn to grow food and be happy with the things you sow therefore never starving for the lords sake he meant i want you to be happy satan and to be agriculturally inclined this he believes would make him more spirit filled with contentment not tent living but spirit filled countanence that christ offers these are truths of the message but the words are mine embellished for story here in discussion peace
  • Truthseeker on Luke 4:5 - 4 years ago
    Looking for clarity. In Luke 4:1 Jesus was full of the Holy Ghost and led by the Spirit in the wilderness. Then, in 5 we read that satan took Jesus up into a mountain. Meanwhile, the NIV translation writes that Jesus was "led" by satan in this instance. So, the NIV uses led and led, which appears to suggest something that does not sit well in my mind, i.e., led by the Spirit AND led by satan. But, the KJV uses two words, "led" and then "taking," suggesting a distinction, and I'd like input on this. Thanks.
  • JEHOVAH RAPHA or God Who Heals - 4 years ago
    One of the names of God is Jehovah Rapha, meaning "the God Who Heals," with the Hebrew word "rapha" translating to "to completely make whole, to thoroughly mend and repair."

    The name is one of many God has used to reveal to us who He is, and He as a healer means He restores not only physical disease but personal distresses, mental anxiety, emotional wounds, wounds from sins we commit against Him-everything about us, He desires to heal.

    "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds," the Psalms say. "O Lord my God, I cried to you for help, and you have healed me."

    God first introduced Himself as a healer to the Israelite people thousands of years ago, when He miraculously provided for them while they were journeying through the barren Middle East wilderness.

    And throughout history up to right now, He continually and miraculously restores hopeless situations just because it's who He is. I know throughout my own life, when I've cried out to Him amid struggles of depression, fear, and all kinds of needs, I've experienced Him and how He has always heard me, provided for me, and restored me.

    See Luke 4:18-21, Isaiah 61:1-3
  • David on Deuteronomy 8 - 4 years ago
    In the face of everything before us, covid, our failing economy, closing of our churches and many other things; our prayer should be for God's will to be done.

    First we continue to worship the Lord almighty, according to scripture.( Luke 4:8)

    We pray for the lost to find salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ. ( Romans 10:1)

    Pray for the those in authority that we may live a quiet and peaceful life. ( 1 Tim 2:1,2)

    We who are saved in Christ know that the Lord will come soon, (1 These 4: 14-18) so our desire should be as the Lord's desire is.

    No one is lost to eternity. ( 2 Peter 3:9)

    May the Lord bless all with wisdom and fortitude to carry out God's will for His glory and praise.
  • Richard Duff - In Reply on 1 Corinthians 15:5 - 5 years ago
    Hello again, Chris,

    Thank you for the response! Before yesterday I had never even discovered this website-format, much less written in it. I found it in Internet-looking up the KJV for purposes in helping another person in pulling it up on-line if they did not have a KJV, so as to try to show them things that would lead them to that Wonderful Saving Knowledge of our Blessed Savior, Almighty God Jesus Christ!...and here we are!

    Please tell me a little about yourself, and your relationship with Jesus Christ and your interest in studying His Bible! What are some of your favorite Scriptures?!

    I am 68 and received Christ when age 17, growing up in Miami, Florida. I came out of a quite strong and dedicated Catholic background - Catholic schooling and being an "altar boy", and "knowing" Catholicism was the "only true religion" - when someone in my junior year of high school, now in a public school, showed me Ephesians 2:8&9, John 1:12, and II Corinthians 5:17. Catholics never teach, recommend, or at all emphasize individual Bible learning, and being able to buy my own copy and read it was revolutionary to me! They emphasize Catholicism-only, what the priest says, completely missing and denying the need for what God says in the last clause of Deuteronomy 8:3 and the related Matthew 4:4 and Luke 4:4.

    Big to me also then quickly became Isaiah 26:3, Psalm 119:11, and Romans 12:1&2. That Glorious Grace Salvation of Ephesians 2:8&9 I immediately saw completely destroyed Catholicism's evil doctrine of works-salvation, and that Truth greatly spoke to me. Seeing that and all these beginning Truths in my life greatly blessed and thrilled my heart and understanding! Another few of my favorite Scriptures in and of life have become III John 2 & 4, Jeremiah 15:16, and Psalms 94:19, 103:3&4 & 111:2 which says, "The works of The Lord are great, sought out of all that have pleasure therein"!!

    Best regards, which is always Jesus Christ Himself! Richard.

    I am in no way frustrated. Your question of "in" or "on" has nothing to do with what started our conversation. Please don't think I called you a fool sir. The question was foolish to me. When Jesus spake(or Isaiah himself) Luke 4:18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me" does that mean He was not filled with the Spirit of God? Or was it just "upon" Him? Not seeing any reason to give thought to that detail. Just to show "on" or "in" is in Scripture and doesn't seem to make much of a difference. And that being about the Spirit of the Lord being "in" or "on".

    So back to thinking "spirit" and "ghost" are different for some reason. Even stating in the original Greek texts there is no "spirit" or "ghost". It is the same word. What do you reply to that? Also no reply about Luke 11:13 etc?

    Maybe another thing. You state there is no unforgivable sin. Which Jesus spake in Matthew 31-32 that there is. Are you against the teachings of Jesus Christ?

    You also state there will be no more Jesus Christ one day? Is not God all in all now? Is he not the source of all life and the Creator of everything? His knowledge, wisdom, is surpassing anything anyone can even comprehend. He knows everything because He is in everything.

    Then you stated "God the Father would be judged as mistaken" for whatever reason. God cannot be judged by anyone or anything. He is the Almighty and He does whatever He pleases. As you wrote "God makes no mistakes" which is correct. Then why would have Jesus spake of an unforgivable sin. But you say there isn't? It seems you have come to your own conclusion on this and surpassed the Word of God?

    Jesus Christ is our Savior and Salvation sent by our Father. He is the only way to the Father and I don't think He's ever going anywhere.

    Seeing as you are and elder saying "you have studied the Bible for 60 years" I shall patiently wait for your reply to the couple questions I stated. If you would like. With respect.

    God Bless.

    Verse 43-The kingdom was the theme of Jesus ministry. All his words and actions helped to clarify what the kingdom is and how it will serve Gods purpose.

    Here also is a suttle example of Jesus not rebuking Saul. Acts 9:4-5 (KJV) And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

    And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

    Now here saul at the time wasn't a believer so when he said who are thou Lord his mind was on God the father, Isn't it strange someone with Paul credentials. a pharisee of pharisees, would ask God "WHO" are thou? and Jesus answered him, " It is I Jesus.

    John 20:28, "And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God". Neither did Jesus rebuke Thomas for saying what he did, in recognizing that Jesus was indeed the Son of God & the One Who came out of God. And his exclamation was not one of surprise but of affirmation when He finally realized Who this Jesus is & the sin of doubt that he carried.

    I absolutely agree.

    The Devil said if you are "the son of God " notice he did not say if you are God ! Why is that ? Jesus would have rebuked the devil for the error as he always does . Turn these stones into bread , and Jesus rebuked the devil again and said Man lives By every word of God !

    Oh but Jesus did not say my words . Why is that ? Because he is not God , but Gods son . And notice he was lead by the Holy Spirit , that God anointed him with why is that ?

    Look closely to the scriptures and what is said and compare all scriptures, there can be no contradiction. These verses are very clear and so many many more .

    Do not allow yourself to be tricked in to doctrines . Gods word is very clear .
