Verse 9 says if we DO what we know is truth GOD will be with us .
This is true fellowship with God ,actually knowing him and communicating with him spiritually.
Walking with God , what more could a person want ? This should be greatly desired , all the promises become real in our very life , and more .
The book of Daniel say that they that know God shall be strong , and do exploits.
Delight yourself in the Lord and he shall give you the desires of your heart . That means your desires are in tune with him , not sinful .
Yes He is worth getting to know more than any one or thing that comes your way . But the cost is very high .
Apostle Paul said he counted the loss of all things dung , that he may know God . That should be an encouragement to us , it sure is to me in these uncertain times .
Division in the body of Christ or denominational influence started in the first century its what the Apostle Paul fought against because people were no longer walking by the spirit but judging others and each other by the senses 1 Corinthians 3:3 which got to the point where in 2 Timothy 1:15 Paul Writes This thou knowest that all which are in Asia be turned away from me and this man witness to all of asia in 2 years and 3 months so thats how far back the function of the one body in Christ in practice was lost.
Denominations, yes there are many !!! I was truly amazed at the amount of them ,.. to me it only hurts an means dividing, or divisions,. For it actually says " We are the many membered body of Christ " ,.. so why so many ??? I dunno !!! But , Christianity is not a religion, it's a reality,.. for we are all , Christ's men / woman !!!!!
Hello All . Concerning the thief on the cross next to Jesus . Please read Proverbs Ch 6 V 30 . Also , we don't even know if this person was a Jew or not so we don't know if the Mosaic Law applied to them . Even if he was a Jew I challenge any one to find in the Law where it says a thief is to be put to death . Do any of you believe that stealing is a capitol offence ? As a Christian we shouldn't ever accuse any one of stealing . If some one takes our things from us we must tell them that we give them freely . My friend who is not a Christian was mugged , there wasn't any violence used but the mugger said he would use violence if their wallet wasn't handed over . My friend the atheist gave them their wallet and said to the mugger " all you had to do was ask and I would have just given you it " . This thief not only confesses his own offence but recognises Jesus's innocence . A very perceptive person . I'm sure we have all read Ezekiel Ch 33 . Christ is the fulfillment of the law , he is the Lord of Grace and Love and Forgiveness . If he forgives the thief who are we to argue ?
Hello All . Can some one help me with this question ? In Revelation Ch 22 V8 & 9 John goes to worship the angel and the angel tells him not to and basically says that he is a human so John shouldn't worship him John should only worship God . I know that some times angels can just be humans but John wouldn't have attempted to worship this angel if it just looked like a human would be ? Surely John would only have tried to worship the angel if it looked like a heavenly being . So why does the angel say what it or he says in Ch 9 ? I have read the Bible quite a few times but this thing always bugs me .
Brethren in submission to the Lord Jesus Christ of this website. Is it not of interests how not many days ago here in the US we watched migrants under the stool of our border which provided some shade as decisions on what to do were made? Hopefully we prayed for God's Will be done and that our lives in Jesus Christ remained free. With a free heart we can also have a sincere prayer for precious Christians and some young children that are being held against their will for a price by kidnappers.

Tomorrow October 21 all believers are invited in Fasting and Prayer for: "The victims, for endurance, faithfulness, and a spirit of Christlike love. Pray for their release and that they could follow the example of Jesus who said of His enemies, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do" Luke 23:34
The kidnappers- that they would experience the love of Jesus and turn to Him.
Government leaders and authorities- as they relate to the case and work toward the release of the victims.
This time of difficulty reminds us of the ongoing suffering of millions of Haitians. While our workers chose to serve in Haiti, our Haitian friends endure crisis after crisis, continual violence, and economic hardship. Despite the difficulties and dangers involved with working there, both our Haitian and American workers carry a vision to minister the love of Jesus in Haiti. Our goal is to seize opportunities around the world, even in difficult contexts, to follow the footsteps of Jesus, who "went about doing good".
Does Job 12:23 mean that God is the bone who makes 'our nation (S) great...oR is it man who by his convictions of doing right and serving the afflicted, and heeding to moral laws within their heart and soul etc.?
I take it to mean that our goodness doesn't compare or even touch on God's -
but not sure what it means.
thanks!
But ACTS 2:21 I believe says anyone who professes that I am Lord will be saved.
Not saying the Bible is a lie. But slightly confused by these two. One says anyone who says Me is saved. Then other says Only Lord calls His children.
Help?

Was Friday just a tradition? or did He actually die on Thursday?
