Discuss Matthew 8 Page 6

There are so many of us still attempting to explain Spiritual things with carnality thinking. Christ allows us to understand that those who follow him are seeking everlasting life...If we are to follow him we must do it in spirit and truth, putting nothing before him. Releasing the traditions of man to be "And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead Rev 14:13 KJV

Mara question,on verse 11 and 12. v.11 tells about the kingdom of Heaven.v.12 is the kingdom of Earth.In Mathew,Jesus says he had come for the 'Lost sheep of Israel'.But here,a Centurion showed his Faith. Then Jesus said 'Many will be gathered from East to West'. To be in the Kingdom of Heaven.v11

Bob Davis question.What is the Gift that Moses commanded.In Exodus,God gives Moses the gift of 3 signs to show people he had been with God.The second and said most important was,Moses could put his hand over his bosom,and it would become leprous,then return normal.In brief,God used Leprosy as a sign with Moses to show people.Then Jesus used Leprosy as a sign to the priests that he is and was real.

The Children of The Kingdom are Israelites, Jewish People. There are Many People that Believe They are Saved But are More Lost than The Lost. The World is Getting Darker Every Day. Sin is Wide Open Like a Full-Blown Epidemic. Very Few Churches Preach Salvation By The Blood of The Lamb. Years ago Some Revivals Were Just Old Gospel Songs, Many Were Saved, Others Rededicated.

I would like to understand verse 11 and 12 better. Is Jesus saying that a lot of people will say that they are believers but are really not.

hi there patricia! I dont know if your question about a tempest was ever answered on this site. a great tempest is a super bad storm. but, you know, nothing is too big for God Almighty to handle. he just needs to speak the word! I have never been through a super bad storm, only a severe thunderstorm. i assume that when you are on the ocean, that a great tempest is almost similiar to a hurricane.

Will this is Interesting? Why Response would be Just a Great Storm. That's what The Rest of The Verse Implies But The Word Used Means Earthquake. I Guess The Sea was Moving Like an Earthquake? Just a Big Storm.

What is meant by a great tempest?

The spirit that have possessed the two men were to abandon their abode at the command of the Lord but for them to exist and continue to operate they needed a new abode therefore they pleaded to possess the heard of swine. They were cast out of the men falsely believing that they would continue to exist and operate in the animals but that was not to be and they were judged that hour.

29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?....Wow! Wow! Wow! the devils clearly know they are given a certain amount of 'Time' then 'Time' will end for them, but humans in 2018 is to busy to observe the Bible's warning to humans to observe the 'Signs of the End of Time' for mankind. Wow!

What can we do for our Lord?
Here I am Lord send me....

Verses 26-36...Where it says, "there met him out of the city a CERTAIN MAN, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs"....In Matthew 8:28-34, this same experience was said to concern, "TWO possessed with devils"... NOT a criticism, NOT a question, merely an observation...When learning the Word, observation is an important tool.

Verse 10- There is a strong connection between faith and receiving healing. If such ones mentioned in this verse did not have faith, they or their loved ones would not have received healing.

Verse 3: the way that Jesus reached out to touch the leper when he did not have to shows the great amount of compassion that Jesus had.

Amen.

Kadiyah.......beautiful and AMEN!

Amen I love love God i trust and ALWAYS believe in him thank u god for saving me and my family

Bob Davis; as the Lord said, "For a Testimony unto them;" ( Leviticus 14), "This shall be the law of the leper in the day of his cleansing.." with the cleansing of the leper, the Priests were prescribed certain procedures with specific materials, with the blood of a sacrifice, and oil representing the Spirit; and pronouncing him clean was to show the work of Christ to cleanse and restore us to God.

Chap 8 v 5. " ... and offer the gift that Moses commanded" What is that gift?

09/06/2017 Hurricane IRMA is bearing down on Florida and I Rebuked it in Jesus' name!!

The lord has always been good to me. I may have had some setback, had to cry many times ,but I will bless the lord at all times holding on to dynamic faith knowing that he is an rewarder of those who dilengently seek him. That those who come to him in secret ,will be rewarded openly. Amen

Praise God let us all never for get the only real love that we who are saved have in this world while we are here is the love of God son Jesus and God himself he love us so much he sent his son to the earth to die for us that we may have everlasting life the world hated Jesus the same way they hate us make no mistake the people in the world do hate us when they fine out we belong to Jesus Amen.

Fear not. Fear leads to anger. And we all know where it goes from there. Just trust God, no matter the situation, he will be there. GODSPEED

Praise God, for he has visited His people. Now we are certain that He exists and that He rewards those who continue in their diligence, those who never waver in their faith, those whose humility exceeds that if the Pharisee, and those who are healed according to their belief that whom God has sent was capable of healing and more, of converting hearts from cynicism to surrender to the infinite God

"...Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed." Simply a fact! there was no fanatic display of the person having to charge himself up "in the Holy Ghost," and nothing he had to perform at all! He simply asked the Lord Jesus to have mercy on him; AND HE DID! This is how prayers are answered, and how folks are saved and healed.

Rose Adams, the veil is still covering the Jews when the scriptures are read.

Carmen, confessing your sins to a priest is confessing to another sinner. Each person must go to Jesus Christ themselves for salvation. Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. No human can forgive your sins. We are saved by the precious blood of the Son of God.

The hand of God is enough. We tend to as why because we are seeing the word of God with our physical eyes. God is all powerful infinite never ending. The disciples wrote the new treatment and in different point of--each man was chosen by Jesus himself. If you ask the Lord for something or a question he always confirms it. From somewhere you will get your answer again. It amazing when u realize

"A wise servant shall have rule over a son that causes shame, and shall have part of the inheritance among the brethren." In Matthew 8:11-12, as in many other places, the warning is clearly, that name and privilege does not give anyone a free pass, regardless of moral character. The fact that the Jews as a people have generally rejected Jesus, and that the Gentiles have received Him, shows this!

Peggy, in accordance with Irene, 1 James 1:5-6, states we are to ask wisdom of God, where we lack, and He will not refuse us nor make fun of our lack of understanding. I have done this at times I did not understand, and He gave me the answers. Not always right away, but we are to insist and persist. He Loves Us!
