Discuss Matthew 19 Page 5

Deuteronomy 24:1-4, Matthew 5:31-37, Matthew 19:3-12, Mark 10:2-12,

So much lately, I'm hearing this false doctrine where there are those telling themselves and others, that they can ignore God's Commandments.

Matthew 19:17

"And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments."

Jesus tells us here point blank: if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments! Jesus and his apostles tell us over and over to keep the commandments and live accordingly. To believe, as a Christian you can disregard God's Commandments, you are deceiving yourself, and ignoring a multitude of bible scripture telling you otherwise.

Here are God's Commandments

1. I am the Lord your God. You shall not have strange gods before me. You shall not make to thyself any graven thing; nor the likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or in the earth beneath, nor of those things that are in the waters under the earth. You shall not adore them nor serve them.

2. You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain.

3. Remember to keep holy the Sabbath day.

4. Honor your father and your mother.

5. You shall not kill.

6. You shall not commit adultery.

7. You shall not steal.

8. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

9. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife.

10. You shall not covet your neighbor's goods.

As a Christ follower why would you NOT want to try keep holy and follow these commandments?

To disregard, you are telling Jesus that you don't love Him. John 14:15 "If ye love me, keep my commandments."

Hey SolaScrip,

Is there scripture outside Revelation that confirms an exact 1000 years? The answer is no. Are there false teachers out there? The answer is yes, there are many, 1 John 4:1. Are there scriptures that say the Son of God will reign on earth? The answer is yes. Psalm 2:6-9 Psalm 22:27-31 Isaiah 2:1-4 Isaiah 9:6-7 Isaiah 24:21-23 Jeremiah 23:5 Ezekiel 20:33-44 Ezekiel 39:21-29 Zechariah 2:10-13 Zechariah 8:2-3 Zechariah 14:1-9 Matthew 19:28 Revelation 11:15 Revelation 20:4 and more.

Is there any scripture that says people will go to or reign in heaven? The answer is no. Are there scriptures that say the elect will reign with Jesus on earth? The answer is yes. Daniel 7:27 2 Timothy 2:11-13 Revelation 5:10. Are there scriptures that describe how things change after Jesus returns? The answer is yes. Zechariah 8:4 Isaiah 11 Isaiah 60:15 Isaiah 65:18-25. These people will be alive on the second coming of Jesus, they will have the opportunity to live longer if they choose to obey God.

Are there things that have not been revealed to us? The answer is, yes? Jesus will return and set up the kingdom here on earth and He will put all enemies under His feet, 1 Corinthians 15:25. Will death still be during the time Jesus is ruling? The answer is yes. The purpose is to fulfill the rest of the scriptures with Jesus, Israel, the Gentiles, and creation that has not yet been fulfilled.

The only scripture that gives us 1000 years is Revelation, but many scriptures tell us the kingdom will be set up on earth. We have these, Numbers 14:21 Psalms 115:16 Micah 4:1-3 Matthew 5:5 Matthew 6:10. Not to debate, with the time it will take I cannot say the 1000 years are false.

God bless,

Part 5 of 5.

In Genesis 2:22, Adam finally meets the one who corresponds to him, that the LORD God built to be a helper for him. After meeting the woman, Adam says, "This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she [this one] shall be called woman, because she [this one] was taken out of man" ( Genesis 2:23). In Hebrew the three occurrences of the demonstrative pronoun this (zt) in verse 23 show Adam's exclamation of the one who rightly corresponds to him. The fact that the woman (i) came from the man () shows that they are made of the same stuff. Adam goes on to name his wife "Eve" because she is to become the mother of all the living ( Genesis 3:20).

Most importantly, in Matthew 19:4-5 Jesus quotes from Genesis 1 and 2 as referring to the same people to make a theological point on marriage. By combining Genesis 1:27 and 2:24 in this way, he in no way regarded them as separate, contradictory accounts of creation. Jesus understood the "male and female" of Genesis 1:27 as "the man" (Adam) and "the woman" (Eve) of Genesis 2:24. Genesis 2 is the beginning of the history of mankind on day six of creation week.

There is no hint whatsoever in Genesis 2 of a group of pre-existing people from whom God elects the first couple, Adam and Eve. Rather it talks about the supernatural formation of the first man (Adam) and the supernatural "building" of the first woman (Eve). The Bible makes it clear: all mankind came from the first man that God created (cf. Acts 17:26).

Everything before this verse was to the multitude 36Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.

And everything after this verse was to the disciples until verse 53 then he speaks with several different peoples. are you trying to see if he is speaking to us? That's an excuse some people use to justify sin or not obeying what Jesus said which is sin. Let us be clear when Jesus speaks it's to all of us or an example to all of us and the things he says to our Commandments, God does not ask he commands Even more Paul said the things the Apostles said to are the Commandments of God. people don't want to sell all they have and give to the poor then follow Jesus they want to keep it so of course Jesus was just speaking to that one person but Jesus said: Matthew 19:29

"And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life."

The last time i checked everyone meant everyone back then and today? We see in Acts believers selling all that they had and owned and giving at the Apostles feet and to the church. Of cousrse you can say in the Greek! it means but no one NO ONE speaks the Greek that was spoken 2000 years ago that's another excuse they use God gave us his word in English the way he wanted it to be and to read and say. The 1769 KJV and there is only 1 reason why you'd change it, you disagree with God's word because you can't live up to what it says to do and be and live. Go to the top of this site hit MORE then the bible introductions 1611 and 1796 it will show you how and by who and what was use to translate it and an incite into what the times were like then

This what the Commentary on this website has written. Mishael

Wesley's Notes for Genesis 2:24

The sabbath and marriage were two ordinances instituted in innocency, the former for the preservation of the church, the latter for the preservation of mankind. It appears by Matthew 19:4,5, that it was God himself who said here, a man must leave all his relations to cleave to his wife; but whether he spake it by Moses or by Adam who spake, Genesis 2:23 is uncertain: It should seem they are the words of Adam__ in God's name, laying down this law to all his posterity. The virtue of a divine ordinance, and the bonds of it, are stronger even than those of nature.

See how necessary it is that children should take their parents consent with them in their marriage; and how unjust they are to their parents, as well as undutiful, if they marry without it; for they rob them of their right to them, and interest in them, and alienate it to another fraudulently and unnaturally.

Hello Lyle. I've always understood this verse in Genesis 2:24, "Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh", as not spoken by Adam, but by the author, under inspiration of the Holy Spirit, after what Adam had previously stated in verse 23.

So, it appears that Moses (as generally attributed to be the main author of Genesis), had deduced that from Adam's words 'that this woman has come out of (made from) me & now one flesh', that in marriages after Adam & Eve's creation, the unity of husband & wife are also seen in similar manner: that before God, they are one, though two distinct beings with their own personalities, special functions, & inclinations. This unity was to be indissoluble except by death. And Jesus also quoted Moses in this matter: Matthew 19:3-6. And so the question that was raised by the Pharisees, 'if this is so, why did Moses allow for a writing of divorcement?' And Jesus went on further to explain this special concession given to a demanding Israel was never in God's Plan for marriage & the union of two people.

H J,

I'm sad to hear of you're very difficult situation all around. 1st let's start with GOD loves you. How wonderful it is when anyone seeks HIM & HIS truth. 1 John 4:19, John 3:15-16. Deuteronomy 4:29,

I have wondered about this subject & I ask: if a man/woman marries someone thst is divorced Matthew 19:9, then is that a marriage honorable to GOD ? Or is it sin, continued in?

Ezra 9,10, it appears only 2 people were against that decision. Ezra 10:15, some of them had children Ezra 10:44, Nehemiah 8:9, Nehemiah 13:23-31,

Is it sin, to continue in sin?

John 8:10

Is that what Jesus would say to you?

Hi Mike

Omnipotent means all-powerful to the utmost.

This quality belongs to God only. No creature possess perfect power as He does.

No creature even comes close to the power of God. What creature could create the universe and its inhabits from nothing? No one. Jesus said the with God, all things are possible ( Matthew 19:26)

Psalm 62:11 says "..that power belongs to God..."

Hope this helps

Yes it is a difficult verse that should be taken like every other action of disobedience concerning the way we function as a Church. It seems the Lord made an exception here in Matthew 19:9.

I believe When they are Married they lay with each other and that constitute their Marriage, When one commit Adultery they break this constitution. But they may remain Married if chooses to. And I believe in the beginning as it is now they were meant to remain Married under all circumstances under the law of mercy. Same union Christ has with his Church.

If a spouse divorce the other where there's no fornication then perhaps that spouse should remain unmarried.

But say this person has grown up in his/her faith acknowledge their wrong doing after he/her remarries, Does he commit an act of disobedience again and repent and get a divorce? Are is that second marriage even valid. The Lord doesn't go into great detail. Probably because as the scripture say the Pharisees came to test him.

Also so do we factor in lusting with the eyes? Thats Adultery as well.

Matthew 5:27-28. I believe we are held on a higher standard than just the act. This is one I believe the Lord judges individually and only he has the wisdom to do so.

God bless.

Matthew 19:19

"Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."

You can ask them in love if its possible to pay it back via installments ?

Thank you for your comments brother Earl. We could spend all day, even weeks, discussing what you believe from the reading of the Scriptures & what I believe. So, I'm not even going to try dealing with all the points you raised, except for a couple.

1 Corinthians 6:2 speaks about the saints judging the world. The purpose, manner & application of that time of judgement is known only to the Lord; what we do know is that we will sit in judgement of the world with the Lord Jesus as Paul said, and as Jesus said to His disciples ( Matthew 19:28; Luke 22:30).

You wrote: "Did not Christ's blood cover all sins of all the world?" True, His Blood availed for every sin of every person, for the shedding of His Son's Blood was God's requirement that our representation in judgement & punishment be borne by His Son. If we stood before God's Court, we would be found absolutely guilty, but His Love was so great that He sent us His Son, our Substitute, to pay our price in our stead.

Then we should ask, 'what is the punishment we would have suffered by this Divine Court?' Can it be only death & the grave, as you believe? As sinners (saved or unsaved), we all have to face death - that is our lot - no escape, lest the Lord intervenes by His Coming. Then was the price paid for our forgiveness & ransom simply to retrieve ALL from the grave? This would be a nice thought & hope that all sinners, no matter how evil they might be, will one day find eternal life with Jesus & reign with Him. But that very hope is unfounded for several reasons. (continued).

THE TRUE ISRAEL

In the Old Testament Israel was the CHURCH, a shadow of the coming true CHURCH.

Christ is the CHURCH, Christ is the promised ISRAEL through Isaac.

Christ SAID, destroy this CHURCH and in three days I will RAISE it up.

If you bear CHRIST IN YOU, you are the true house of Israel.

Hebrews 3:6 But Christ as a son over his own house (church), whose house (church) we are......

Revelation 21:22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the LAMB are the TEMPLE OF IT.

Matthew 19:28 .....ye shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Zechariah 12:7 And I will save the tents of Judah FIRST...

The new covenant PRIESTHOOD comes from the tribe of Judah, the old covenant priesthood came from the tribe of Levi.

Dear Heavenly Father,

Please tell Mike what to do to get help. And help him to submit to You. 100%. Your way Father. We pray for him tonight Lord please

be merciful. I pray that his will be broken and Your will be done. Please Lord he's tired and desperate. In Jesus name bless Mike with a wonderful testimony!

Mike, I've been there where you're at. I was homeless and felt hopeless. I was a mess.

One day I hit my all time spiritual low. I was so broken. All out of hope. And Help. I submitted to God 100%. That night I fell asleep and God spoke to me and told me what to do and where to go. The next morning I followed his instructions. I put in the work and kept the faith. I still had sin in my life. But God was merciful. He will help you when you seek Him with a broken and contrite spirit. Sometimes that's what it takes.So keep seeking Him, trusting Him. God is still moving today. He is still working miracles. Trust Him, pray and do not give up

Remember with man it's impossible. But isn't that when God steps in? Matthew 19:26

Hello Vincent. The Hosea 3:1 reference you shared wouldn't apply to your question, as that was a specific command given by God to His prophet Hosea to present himself & his 'family' to the people as a graphic demonstration of the way that the Northern Kingdom (Israel) was behaving towards the God Who loved them. In that account, we see a very sad demonstration that Hosea had to engage in, which impacted more people than himself, but God had to get through to His people in such a manner.

In the relationship that you presented, as much as the couple are both widowed, in their later years, & certainly unable to conceive a child, it still remains that the matter of sexual fidelity must still be maintained. As both are single & able to be married without fear of having committed adultery, the matter of fornication (i.e. sexual engagement outside of marriage) is still evident. I realize that marriage is more than a piece of paper which verifies what has taken place; it involves a deep growing love, commitment, faithfulness, honesty, etc., which of course can be had even without that paper. But the door is still open to renege on that commitment. Therefore, a verified public declaration of marriage leaves everyone with no doubt of the relationship - any other relationship can bring up questions & destroy one's witness & standing. And this type of relationship, particularly if based purely on sexual gratification, the Lord cannot condone. You can see Jesus' Words in Matthew 19:3-9, particularly verses 5 & 6, pertaining to the 'one flesh' union that is enjoyed & blessed in a monogamous marriage. And 1 Corinthians 7:1,2, where the apostle speaks of sexual fidelity pre-marriage, & to enjoy the fullness of the blessings of a deep meaningful relationship, then the two ought to be married. The persons in your question may indeed enjoy all the facets of a marriage even to sharing in a Last Will & all possessions, so to make it official would be a very small matter.

Brother SAM:

Ephesians 2:6 And (God, the Father) hath raised US up TOGETHER (you and Christ) and made us (you and Christ) sit together (become one) in heavenly places.

This is the first death and resurrection (you died with Christ and were raised with Christ).

Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy is he (you and Christ) that hath part in the first resurrection ....

Matthew 19:6 Therefore they (you and Christ) are no more twain, but ONE FLESH. What therefore God (SPIRIT) hath joined together, let no man put asunder.

GBU

Christian Greetings!

For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,

Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;

That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.

Titus 3:1-9

And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon the twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Matthew 19:28

Ye shall not do after all the things that we do this day, every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes. For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which the LORD your God giveth you.

Deuteronomy 12:8-9

While he yet spake, behold a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

Matthew 17:5

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Matthew 28:18-20

He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

I once witnessed 2 children who asked to be baptized by the Lead Pastor, they were skipped over, another Pastor replaced the old one & once again those 2 children a boy & a girl asked to be baptized. That Pastor also asked them questions on the Bible, doctrine, taught them a special class, privately then decided not to Baptize them. In a short time other youths were baptized & they were skipped over again. I watched as those two children served in the church, many days & even during the celebration of the others getting baptized. Whom was more like Christ? Later those 2 children were baptized without classes & with people who barely knew them. Please pray for wisdom.

Matthew 19:7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?

19:8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but (from the beginning it was not so.)

Women have a place in the home and work of the Lord, but to be in authority over the man is forbidden by the written word. ( 1 Timothy 5:14) ( Titus 2:3-5)

This is my question How dpes God forgive even the worst sinner. and do they have to be confessed or a baptizing?

Brother Dan. Firstly, apologies for my comment appearing in the wrong spot in this thread; I did post it under your name, so not sure what went wrong.

Secondly, an example I can use in respect to what we're discussing is found in Matthew 19:16-22, in reference to the rich young man & his meticulous adherence to the Decalogue. I see this encounter between Jesus & this man as a transition from having 10 rules to follow to the letter, to a fuller understanding of the given Law, which is demanded by the Law-Giver.

Jesus needed to show him that as commendable his obedience to the Law was, his carefulness still failed to meet the full requirements of the Law. His wealth got in the way of a true love & service to God, hence his inability to follow Jesus.

So what was missing & a cure for this dilemma that would affect all Jews, even those who had this young man's zeal for obedience? I believe Jesus was introducing what would occur after His death & resurrection & the impartation of the Holy Spirit. The time would come when reference to the Decalogue would no longer be necessary or relevant; that the Cross separated the Law which brought condemnation & death & usher in the Law of the Spirit which took hold of all of God's demands as given earlier, with the fuller meaning & application that only the Spirit could impute in the believer.

Therefore, I see no bearing of the Decalogue to the believer, rather obedience to the Spirit within us Who speaks to our hearts ALL that God demands from His blood-bought. If I referred to the Decalogue as a measure of my obedience, I might tend to find satisfaction from ticking off all the boxes & then to my dismay find another Law working in me bringing me into bondage & condemnation. Therefore, my subjection is wholly to the Spirit & not to the Law. God bless you brother.

Wesley's Notes for Matthew 19:24

19:24 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, (a proverbial expression,) than for a rich man to go through the strait gate: that is, humanly speaking, it is an absolute impossibility. Rich man! tremble! feel this impossibility; else thou art lost for ever!

People's Bible Notes for Matthew 19:24

Mt 19:24 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle. It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man (i.e., as already explained, one who trusts in riches) to enter into the kingdom of God. In other words, one whose trust is in wealth cannot enter at all.

Hi Carole, this has been circulated around for years, but I don't believe it's true. I think it was made up by people to not feel as bad about it being hard for rich people to go to heaven. I believe the Bible already said what it means regarding the eye of the needle. It's already symbolic and this extra layer of symbolism that isn't explained in the Bible, but only by hearsay, is highly suspicious. The Bible says it's hard for rich to go to heaven and I believe the Bible over man. I don't believe this is a punishment on anyone who is financially successful, but shows how important and extra difficult it is to not be corrupted by money and the love of money. It also says in v26 that all things are possible with God on your side.

Please explain "eye of a needle" in Matthew 19:24. I've been told it's a small opening in a large wall, thru which a camel has to kneel down (with nothing on his back) to get thru it. Is this true?

These are most of the scriptures on marriage and divorce. Since you are a widow, you can remarry. The only hindrances come when you marry a non-believer. They may hinder you going to church; or reading the Bible; holding hands and praying over dinner. Here goes:

Matthew 5

31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:

32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

Commentaries:

Wesley's Notes for Matthew 5:31

Let him give her a writing of divorce - Which the scribes and Pharisees allowed men to do on any trifling occasion. # Deut 24:1; Matt 19:7; Mark 10:2; Luke 16:18.

People's Bible Notes for Matthew 5:31

Mt 5:31,32 Whosoever shall put away his wife. The divorce laws were very lax among the Jews. A man could put away his wife "for any cause" ( Matthew 19:8). Moses directed a legal letter of divorcement ( Deuteronomy 24:1). Christ positively forbids divorce except for unchastity. Marriage is a divine institution, and the obligation is for life. Mt 19:3-9; Romans 7:1-3; 1 Corinthians 7:10-17

You can read these other scripture references also.

I'm not here to make you feel worse. I hope you'll be free. My story, I seemed to attract liars, moochers, and charlatans. I had to raise a son by myself. I've been single 35 yrs. And you?

It made sense to me the scriptures I'm gonna share with you. My life with the Lord has been so full, that I finally realized I must be a eunuch. I chose this life of solitude mixed with a lot of joy and contentment living close to my Lord.

Matthew 19:12

For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were MADE eunuchs of men (mankind) and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

I'm sure you've read Romans 1:25-32. I don't think your heart is in that lifestyle anymore. You want to be free. And of course, Satan wants to sabotage your walk with the Lord. See, he's not in human form until he finds a willing body. God gave you Dominion, Genesis 1:26. Jesus gave you His Authority to command satan and all his demons to GET OUT AND GO INTO OUTER DARKNESS. They are all invisible Outlaw spirits.

ASK God to send an angel to guard your home. You rid your home of every single item demons might use as an invitation to return. Acts 19:19. You'll know which items must go. Burn the memories of sin. Even hard drives. New ones don't cost that much.

Furnish "your house (you)" with a deeper walk with the Holy Spirit, Christian music, listen to healing scriptures on YouTube.

Not knowing your Church you attend, I do tell friends who desire marriage, to occasionally visit another church. "Ms Right" may be there that day. Visiting is just that. In Gen.24, the servant is like the Holy Spirit. Abraham sends him to find Isaac a wife. See the principal? Ask Holy Spirit to Help you. Don't give up now. Always let hope live in you. Be alert to repeat attacks and bind and cast out again.

You don't need help at all. All you need is the understanding that GOD left His throne and decided to be The Son of Man, The Son of GOD - He prepared a flesh HE named JESUS. Meaning to say, GOD, The Holy Ghost is JESUS CHRIST Himself (3in1). Whatever GOD responds is what comes first/ the reference/ the source/ everything. Whatever our understanding is or whatever we expect Him to say comes to nothing for we are just a bunch of nothingness. Even that jeopardy champion you mentioned doesn't even deserve a mention when we talk about Dearest LORD JESUS for no one else can't save us from confusion, from incurable sicknesses and diseases, heartbreaking problems, drug addiction, hell but GOD Himself.

Dearest JESUS sets a benchmark then we follow Him. If you choose to go the other way around, unfortunately, you'll be hell-bound.

Matthew 19:21

"Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me."
