  • Dgjot on 2 Corinthians 6 - 2 years ago
    Re:vs 14-18 Matthew Henry said, "We should not join in friendship and acquaintance with wicked men and unbelievers."

    That's fine with me. And, to that list I could add phony Christians and phony Christian organizations. When I was first saved, I relied on those who were my "shepherds" to steer me in the right direction. I can't tell you how many times I was led astray by phony "christians". I misinterpreted scriptures (like, "who is my brother"- to mean I was responsible for the entire "christian" body) and gave a lot of my money to people and organizations who didn't have my best interest at heart. I was used.

    "Christian charity" is for one believer in Christ to another believer in Christ, not infidels. Also, I thought "giving" was supposed to be reciprocal, but I found myself always on the giving end and never on the receiving end.

    So, when my infidel neighbors come to my door wanting something, do I slam the door in their face or continue to support them???? Does saying "no" bring shame to Christ??

    [We read] In KJV, Ezekiel 22:30: "And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none."

    O God, please help us and teach us to build a wall [of prayer] around the USA, Canada, Poland, European Union and United Kingdom. Are you ready to stand in the gap, where God is the Helper and Teacher?

    Dear believers: we continue the good fight to the end.

    Please pray that United Kingdom, European Union, Poland, the USA, Canada would overcome for: (The Acts 26.18).

    * Poland and European Union, pray for freedom from dead religion to saving faith of Jesus Christ as the Saviour and the Lord,

    * the Church in the USA & Canada & United Kingdom - Pray for repentance and cleansing of the church - Matt. 3.12 "Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."

    * my family:

    1. Bad executives are hurting me. Please pray for God's order in that case.

    2. Stir up the hearts of my family for ministry for me, my wife Dorothy, our daughters Ann and Kristin, and our sons Peter and Daniel - "..but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord" Joshua 24.15

    3. Pray for God's will, wisdom, discernment, revelation and recognition for me and my family; I ask God for Edmund's work situation, God's direction for Edmund , Dorothy, Peter, Daniel, Ann(also God's protection and blessings over the company where she works and she needs a husband) and Kristin,

  • Catholic Sacrament rules Founded Upon Scripture? - 2 years ago
    Hi. I was baptized into the Catholic Church as a baby, but no longer attend Mass. Two weeks ago I did go

    with a friend, and I went up for communion. A Catholic friend of mine later told me that the custom in the

    Church is that you must first go to confession with a priest before taking communion. Is that practice based

    on anything in Scripture?

  • Dusty Rollins on 1 Timothy 2 - 2 years ago
    Wasn't 1st Tim. 2:12 more of a cultural issue. We see in acts women Paul talking about teaching and great workers in Christ.

    Also, isn't "preaching" different from teaching? They aren't in rule over men but if truly called by God, doing what she is called to do.

    Sorry, lol, this leads to this. If, the verse is to be held above cultural values, how do we justify women in Sunday school teachers?

    I see this used by some pastors and husband's using this verse to pit women "in their place!". I'm not a feminist or supporting an anti church organization. I'm doing an independent study and getting different views. Be blessed, safe and Merry Christmas!
  • Mara on Jeremiah 7 - 2 years ago
    Vs 16? Should I take this vs as a parable? When I read this, I think about my own nation , and how our country is very much into immoral, ungodly.unrepentive, greedy, power hungry some murderous individuals, some even mock our lord proudly.when I look around its hard to find a lot of goodness.shoukd I refrain from praying for my godless seeming nation ?is there a line a nation can cross of horribleness before God is done? I know that God is coming with his wrath to judge tge tribes( jacobs troubles) and I know god loves the jews and jus wants them to walk righteously to obey and to put him first.i know he punishes to correct.how should I interpret this verse?
  • Alex N - 2 years ago
    Earl we miss you GBU Happy Christmas
  • Alex N - 2 years ago
    G G GBU But They don't call Jesus the bridegroom for nothin...Remember he told some i neva knew you. If he

    does not know you there will be no seed deposited in your heart thus no Child of Promise which is the H.G. .That was

    the great Promise that Christ wd be multiplied as the stars of heaven ,and thats y the sower of that good seed wants to Sow his precious seed in our hearts, That you might be bornagain of an incorruptible seed etc....That Woman in rev 12

    that is giving birth is a perfect example of what that good seed can accomplish even a king and a kingdom....Remember

    Joseph was born that another Child might be added to Rachel which was Benjamin. But in the spritual realm there is another Child added to Jesus which is the H.G. That CHILD OF Promise .Remember Solomon saw a second CHILD stand up in his stead . I saw the 2 nd Child that SHALL stand up in his stead ( Christ stead ) and there is no end of the ppl he shall be king over which is the H.G. That stands up in the place of Christ , Whosoever receives one such child in my name receive me. G G Remember the H.G FELL ON THEM THAT HEARD HIS WORDS ( HIS SEEDS) Thus the H.G. CAN BE BORN INHUMANITY , His breath was his word and his Word is his seeds when he breathe on them they were impregnated thats y he said b/c i have spoken these words SORROWS HAVE FILLED YOUR HEARTS Which IS A SPRITUAL Pregnancy the Child is spirit as that which is born of the spirit is spirit the H.G. That Child of Promise. G G REMEMBER THAT GREAT PROMISE WAS MULTIPLICATION OF VERY GOD. In that God himself swore by his very self

    and there is none greater then God.

  • Denise on Daniel 12 - 2 years ago
    In verse 11 states there will be 1290 days then in verse 12 states 1335 days , so 1335 days from 1290 days equals 45 extra days! For what are the extra 45 days for?? Repenting of our sins to the Lord Jesus? Coming to the full knowledge in heart mind and soul that Jesus Christ is God in the flesh!We as believers know who He is!! Giving sinners extra time of this evil generation to come to the true reality? Jesus Christ wants all men to repent to Him!! Praise and Glory to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords!!!!! Amen!

    Prophesy is ramping up in Israel. Today the Pope said a two state solution was the best deal. The meeting was attended by every nation EXCEPT the Jews. They want Israel to give up ALL of the West Bank!! The Pope wants Israel to divide the LAND.

  • Florida mom - 2 years ago
    This may seem like a strange question, but I was praying silently the other night and in my mind words that I didn't know were coming out in prayer. I felt close to God as I was praying. Is it possible to pray in tongues silently? I have never spoke in tongues before. I have really been studying the word and learning everything I can in the Bible. I was never taught about the holy ghost in church and always taught you should not speak in tongues unless you have an interpreter. I am reading the book of Acts and about spiritual gifts. I appreciate any knowledge anyone may have about this.
  • When You're Not Sure the Holy Spirit is With You - 2 years ago
    Comment to Terrt__

    John 3, has everything you need to get started.

    After receiving Jesus as your Lord, Then He baptises you with the promise of the indwelling Holy Spirit.

    One of Holy Spirits ministry is to be your Teacher in all things concerning Jesus. He helps you to pray rightly. He helps you to understand what you read in the Bible.

    When we are new in Jesus we may not be ready to receive speaking in tongues. It is for to rest in Jesus, and be His beloved child.

    To fast track what the Holy Spirit does, it may be easier to Google: Ministry of the Holy Spirit to Believers.

    He gives the gifts and operations as you are ready to receive them. It also means quieting yourself, and just sitting before Him; in an attitude of quiet and listening. You may think of a Church song you love: sing it. "Enter His gates with praise."

    A barrier to hearing, is the constant pollution of a tv on in the background. We do that because we don't like our thought life. Holy Spirit is not going to shout revelation, over the noise of the world from tv. He waits for us to quiet ourselves.

    Songs I may sing to Jesus: Nothing But the Blood of Jesus; Jesus Loves Me; I have decided to follow Jesus; I walk the line by Johnny Cash. Be Exalted,O God.

    [Praise songs will fire up prayer life]

    God inhabits our praises and angels hearken to our praises and spoken scriptures.

  • Terrt on James 4 - 2 years ago
    Why is it that some people get the holy ghost and others dont? I called on the name Jesus Jesus Jesus over and over again as i was taught to by the House of God church Keith Dominion and i just dont know if i truly have the Holy Ghost. Im not a smart or intelligent person but i love the Lord. I failed God in a lot of areas. I dont want to end up in hell. Help me to truly know that i have the holy ghost. If i did have him i would already know right. Pray for me and my family! Thank you for your steadfastness in serving the Lord. Terry 786 587 5791.
  • James Estorga - 2 years ago
    In terms of idolotry, how does this apply in today's world and application? Understanding that brands and certain consumer choices can go against this as well? tbh, a Target trip and Starbucks is like a trip to Disney Land, 10/10 will go. I try to do my part for the community and supporting businesses and people who align in my interests, and sometimes big branding just doesn't fit the moral application in life at the time. Thank you as aways for your feedback!

    Hi Sister GiGi.

    Great read. I like to add some input on the blessings Jacob gave his sons.

    I believe the blessings to Abraham and Issac went through the Lineage of Judah.

    Here's why.

    Genesis 22:18.

    Galatians 3:14.

    Galatians 3:16.

    Now here is Judahs blessing.

    Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies; thy father's children shall bow down before thee.

    Judah is a lion's whelp: from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up?

    THE SCEPTRE SHALL NOT DEPART FROM JUDAH, NOR A LAWGIVER FROM BETWEEN HIS FEET, UNTIL SHILOH COME; AND UNTO HIM SHALL THE GATHERING OF THE PEOPLE BE.

    Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass's colt unto the choice vine; he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes in the blood of grapes:

    His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk. Genesis 49:8-12.

    Abraham's blessing to Issac was because he was Promised! He was God's doing! We are children of Promise as well.

    Galatians 4:28.

    Ishmael was the works of their own hands "Works of the flesh " ( This has a lot of spiritual application )

    Here is the Contrast of the two.

    Galatians 4:29-31.

    Verse 30 says Issac is the heir this connects him to the promise on through Jacob on Judah to Christ. Revelation 5:5.

    What's interesting is Jacob blessing Joseph sons out of order instituting the reverse sovereign order of the firstborn as seen in Romans 9:11-12. Romans 9:11.

    ("that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;")

    I believe we see the contract of Works and Grace, Flesh and Spirit, The narrow gate and the wide gate. And the putting asleep of Abraham when the unconditional covenant was made. All in These verses.

    God bless you and Good night.
