Of Gen. 6:2 =
Besides here, the Old Testament uses the expression "the sons of GOD" to identify supernatural angelic beings:
1st, Job 1:6-7 describes "sons of GOD" presenting "themselves before The LORD." Note that "Satan (the supreme demonic angelic principality) came also among them."
2nd, Job 38:7 records JEHOVAH asking Job
"[4] Where wast thou [7] When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of GOD shouted for joy?"
Here, both expressions, "morning stars" and "sons of GOD" identify supernatural angels reacting to GOD's wondrous Creative Power.
The Old Testament does not use this expression to refer to believing saints except for the possible exception of Hosea 1:10: "In the place where it was said unto them (Israel), Ye are not MY people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of The Living GOD." The LORD, through HIS prophet Hosea, prophetically promised Israel a restoration far into the future.
Moreover, the designation "men" translates from the Hebrew noun "adam" (Eng. transliteration; pronounced "aw-DAWM"). Scriptures record the term "adam" (aprox. 529 times) to refer to all mankind (generically), both male and female, as the highest created species of living creatures (e.g. Gen. 1:26): "GOD said, Let US make man (Heb. "adam") in OUR IMAGE, after OUR Likeness."
Therefore, these "daughters of men" are the human female offspring of human fathers and mothers. Certain demonic angels saw these "daughters" as physically attractive ("fair"). Their "fairness" spawned unholy desires within these wanton angels who looked upon them, and desired them as objects solely for fulfilling their lusts.
Philip Christian Parks on Genesis 6:2 - 2 years ago
The theory that the "sons of GOD" are the GODly sons of Seth's lineage while the "daughters of men" are the GOD rejecting daughters of Cain's descendants proves baseless and erroneous.
Consider the following points of argument:
> Seth's male descendants were not all inherently righteous by default, simply because Seth was their forefather.
> From the silence of Scriptures, Bible students cannot assume all of Cain's descendants were evil and rebellious.
> A marriage between the descendant males of Seth and the female descendants of Cain would not automatically guarantee an offspring of giants. If this were true, all "unequally yoked" ( 2Cor. 6:14) parents, if one is an unbeliever while the other is a believer, would produce grotesque hybrid giants.
> If Seth's male offspring were inherently righteous enough to deserve the title "sons of GOD", then this demands answers to many questions:
? Why is Noah solely and singularly described as "a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with GOD" ( Gen. 6:9; cp. 7:1)?
? Why weren't any others of Seth in the Ark besides Noah, a descendant of Seth? Must we assume Noah was Seth's only and final righteous offspring?
? Did their marrying an unbeliever forfeit GOD's Mercy and abandon them to die with the rest of the wicked as The LORD de-creed ( Gen. 6:7)? The LORD would not do so according to HIS Promises to Abraham concerning Lot's safety in Sodom. Six times The LORD promised Abraham, "I will spare all the place for their (the righteous) sakes" (see Gen. 18:26-32).
This theory implies that if Seth's male descendants were truly "sons of GOD", then they all, without exception, had to sin so grievously as to lose this title. So much for the Doctrine of Eternal Security.
> Bible students commit hermeneutical malpractice to assume the "daughters of men (Heb. "adam")" was restricted to the female descendants of Cain. Such interpretation comes from prejudice and bias which The LORD prohibits (cp. Lev. 19:15).
We just updated the Bible verse linking functionality so it's faster and more accurate. Thank you for your patience while we stay busy in the background trying to improve the Bible reading and discussing experience. Previously, the script made it so you couldn't accurately type numbers like 1,000 or 10,000, but now you can. Praise God!
As with any technology, there are limitations. Here are the rules of how it works.
_________
1. Book & Chapters
Just type a book and a chapter and it will automatically link. It won't link with just a book, or just a chapter, it must be both with a space in between, like this:
Genesis 1
_________
2. Verses
Just type any verse like you normally would and it will automatically hyperlink if your book, chapter, and verses are are correct, such as:
Genesis 1:1
_________
3. Ranges
Just type a hyphen and another verse to link to a verse range. It won't link to chapter ranges, only verse ranges.
Genesis 1:1-3
_________
4. Series
Just type a comma between each individual verse you want to list for a given chapter. Important note: it doesn't allow spaces between the commas and verses. You can list up to 10 verses in a series. For example:
Genesis 1:2,4,7,12,15
_________
Notes:
If the above rules are followed the Bible verse references will be hyperlinked. You may also use commonly used book abbreviations. You may list multiple Bible verse references in a row separated by a space, period, comma, semicolon and they should link properly. Ranges and series can't be combined, however. It's only one or the other per book and chapter reference. For example:
Gen 1:2,4,7,12,15. Gen. 1:2-5. Gen 2:2,4,11. Jn 3:16; Mk 10

In the great day of judgement, who is the judge, and in what manner will you be judged?
Here's a hint:
Revelation 22:12-14
12And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. 13I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. 14Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
Don't believe Jesus will judge you as he states above?
Then believe what Jesus states here in scripture:
Matthew 7:14
14Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
FEW WILL FIND IT!!!!!!!!
Stay focused on the true WORD!
Matthew 7:15
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Man can, and will deceive. If a man's words don't agree with Jesus Christs words/scripture then it is False, discard it!
Stay focused on the WORD.
Luke 11:28
"But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it."
2 Corinthians 12:9 God's Power Of ALL-Sufficient GRACE in our weaknesses and infirmities:
"PEACE With God," and knowing what good "tribulation worketh in us" ( Romans 5:1-5)
"For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." ( Romans 8:18)
The Spirit "helps our infirmities, And Prays For us" ( Romans 8:26)
The Spirit "Intercedes For us, According To The Will Of God" ( Romans 8:27)
God Makes "all things Work Together For Good," for HIS Own ( Romans 8:28)
We are "Predestinated To Be Conformed To The Image Of God's SON" ( Romans 8:29)
God Helps us "bear our testings" ( 1 Corinthians 10:13)
We have The Wonderful "Comfort Of God!" ( 2 Corinthians 1:3-4)
"For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a Far More Exceeding and Eternal Weight of Glory" ( 2 Corinthians 4:17)
God will "change our vile body" to be "like HIS Glorious Body!" ( Philippians 3:21) Amen?
Conclusion:
"For our infirmities/sufferings"? Should we not "follow Paul our 'pattern'" ( 1 Ti 1:16)?:
"And HE Said Unto me, My GRACE Is Sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that The Power of CHRIST may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for CHRIST's Sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong." ( 2 Corinthians 12:9-10)
{Why do so-called "faith healers" ignore This Excellent Word Of God?}
Amen? And Amen.
Please Be Richly Encouraged, Enlightened, Exhorted, and Edified!
Hello everyone . Has anyone else noticed this ? And if so what do you think of it please ? Ruth is a lovely story and at the end of it we find out that she is actually an ancestor of Jesus through his mother Mary , even though it states in the law that a Moabite shall not enter the congregation of Israel ,Nehemiah Ch13 Verse 1. I noticed in Esther it appears that she and her uncle Mordecai could be descendants of Saul , 1st Sam Ch14 Verse 50+51 ,1st Samuel Ch15 whole thing , 2nd Samuel Ch16 Verse5-8 , Esther Ch2 Verse5-7 ,Esther Ch3 Verse1 an Agagite is a member of an Amalakite tribe , Esther Ch9 Verse10 . This would make the book of Esther more than a beautiful story in a similar way that Ruth is more than a beautiful story . It may be a stretch but could it possibly indicate some kind of redemption / atonement / reconciliation for Saul ?
Isaiah 55:11 go forth out of my (God) mouth : I have thought I could use this verse to use His word to encourage others, but now I see it must come from Him not me . What say you ?
The wise men of old were diligent to pack up and travel as they did, to see Jesus at his first coming. Contrasting their zeal with Christians today, are we as eager to respond to biblical signs of our Lord's very different second coming event? In his last moments, Jesus pondered this out loud. He asked if he would find faith in anyone: "when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?" Lk. 18:8. The question was not meant to provoke a brash response, "Of course, I'll have faith!" No instead, we should humbly ask, why does Jesus sound doubtful; why does he vocalize such a question, whether faith would exist in anyone on earth when he returns?
Does the bible clarify why faith will become difficult? First, the bible warns, major lies will sweep masses of people in wrong directions. We are told, faith in God will become somehow counter-cultural, even splitting up families. The bible's warns of a fundamental global change. Physical money will become useless. Imagine if you cannot buy food for your family. Financial exchange will continue everywhere, but soon only digitally. Maybe a public promotion kicks off virtual cash with a large gift of digital currency to each person who joins the system. "Just take the mark". If your family hasn't eaten in weeks, would you take it? Talk about stress, would another of your family members, to stop the suffering hunger? Read Revelation 14:9, it speaks of eternal torment for everyone who takes the mark of the beast. Pressure against believers will be so intense that many Christians the bible says, will turn and take the damning mark. Their decision will be to their own destruction forever
I would love to start coming on here because I do believe as many should that we ought to be strengthened together in unity as Jesus Christ wants us to be. I have a few concerns in regards to things i've experienced and ever wonder if anyone still experiences this so here it goes. I have been a christian for going on three years but it wasn't until recently that I felt the power of the Holy Spirit more and understand my purpose in life. In my journey with the Lord he is giving me more boldness, strength, and braveness. I don't really know how to speak to people and I was very insecure since being a child but it truly is remarkable as to how God can use anyone. My question is that is it normal to see brothers and sisters that you have fellowship once a Sunday to not show so much enthusiasm (being on fire) for the Lord ? I find myself when I meet a Christian brother and sister I want to talk about Christ and keep on but no one really wants to with me. Just a few things here and there but I just feel like the things that are very important to me may not be important. Is it normal to feel like this ? Is it normal to open up to your pastor but not get any encouragement or calls to see how you are doing ? Shouldn't the pastor guide and feed the sheep ? I am not one to say just because this happens I will lose my faith. God has shown me through prayer and thanksgiving that he loves me and know that I have a purpose in life and that's to do his will. I may not have the most wisdom but right now I am trying to understand more of his grace and love so I can be made perfect in his love. John 4 says there will be a time where the true believers will worship God in spirit and in truth . So are we at that point now a days ? Has the salt really left ? I mean I know I am not the only one that feels like this or am I ? Would love to get some insight on this. God Bless you my friends.
1 Corinthians 12:13 God's ONE Baptism for The Body Of CHRIST, Under GRACE/Mystery:
Precious friends, Please Be Encouraged/Edified in This Important "study" of three baptisms:
God's Word Of Truth, Rightly Divided, 'Shows water' is NOT Under God's GRACE, Today:
(1) Prophecy/Law for ISRAEL: The Twelve Were Sent to water baptize!
The TWO Main, of 12 baptisms =
A) water, For remission of sins/induction into Israeli "priesthood!" {separate "study" IF you wish...} ( Matthew 3:5-6) ( Mark 1:4) ( Luke 3:3) ( John 1:31) ( Luke 7:29-30) ( Acts 10:37) ( Matthew 28:19) ( Mark 16:16) ( Acts 2:38) ( Acts 22:16) ( Ezekiel 36:25) ( John 18:35) ( Exodus 19:6) +
B) WITH The Holy Spirit, Poured Out By CHRIST, for power, signs And wonders! ( Isaiah 44:3) ( Matthew 3:11) ( Mark 1:8) ( Mark 16:17-18) ( Luke 24:49) ( Acts 2:17-18) ( Acts 2:38) ( Acts 8:15-17) ( Acts 11:16)
Prophecy/Law
Rightly Divided ( 2 Timothy 2:15) From Things That Differ!:
(2) Mystery/GRACE! = our "apostle to the Gentiles" for The Body Of CHRIST:
Paul Was Not Sent to {water} baptize! Why Not?:
Today: 'Only ONE' Baptism = "BY" The ONE Spirit = God's OPERATION, Spiritually Identifying members In (The ONE Body Of) CHRIST!! ( Ephesians 4:5) ( Colossians 2:12) ( Galatians 3:27) ( Romans 6:3-4) ( 1 Corinthians 12:13) --------------------------------------------------
Thus, This ONE Baptism Is Performed, By God, Today, Under God's GRACE/MYSTERY Program, when the sinner "believes in CHRIST, that He died and rose again, and God saves them" in the twinkling of an eye.
Thus, "water baptism" Is Scriptural, But Dispensationally, "was for the Previous Law/Prophecy Program" of God, For ISRAEL!
Conclusion, water baptism is Scriptural, but, TODAY, is UNdispensational! Amen?
Precious friends, Please be Richly Encouraged, enlightened, exhorted, and edified!"
Who are the two "living creatures" God created in the scriptures below? If this "creation" is chronological--as it appears to be, then Adam was created AFTER this Enoch and Leviathan. I think I know who Leviathan is (Lucifer?), but WHO is Enoch?
And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
Philippians 2:10
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Isaiah 37:16
O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made heaven and earth.
Genesis 2:4
These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,
Psalms 19:1. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
John 1:3 - All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. Romans 1:20 - For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Ecclesiastes 3:11 - He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end. Genesis 2:1
1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
Comment by Mishael: I pray for angels to guard the 4 corners of my home. I have never had any demonic manifestations for 36 years. God gave us DOMINION; and Jesus gives us HIS AUTHORITY to to stop satanic activity immediately.
I think Space dot com slash NASA has the best photos.
Luke 22:52 Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves? 53 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
You forgot to put these words in red as these are Jesus' words. This passage is so encouraging to me because it's when Jesus heals the ear of the high priest's servant. What I read into this passage is that this servant now has undeniable proof of the holiness of our Lord and Savior, an eye witness, and Jesus is willing to do this healing despite being arrested and led to what he knows will be his death. The only thing that concerns me is that Jesus told his disciples to purchase the swords, by selling their coats. He appears to be setting the scene for this miracle. However, maybe he just wanted his disciples to have arms in order to be able to get away. Thanks for making this book available in this form online.
Hello Brothers and Sisters . Next time you attend your place of worship can you please take a close look around you . Do you see someone sat on their own ? Do you see someone that you know lives alone ? Or maybe someone who is the only person in their household to have been saved ? Please ! Make an effort to get to know them and encourage the rest of your congregation to do so also . Who do you live with ? Other Christians ? Spare a thought and some of your time for your Brother or Sister who has limited interaction with other Christians and introduce yourself to them , include them in your group , make them to know and feel the love of Christ that is in you . Be a family . Be the face of love and fellowship .Have compassion on your Brother or Sister who's only contact with other Christians might be that all too brief time on a Sunday morning .Surely it is our duty , surely it is the right thing to do . God is watching us .
Good Afternoon/Everning (for some). May The Lord Jesus Christ be with y'all during this turbulent times.
I would like some insight if I may. I have been a Christian going on three years. And as of recently I read a book entitled Absolute Surrender by Andrew Murray which changed my life and gave a lot of clarity on what I was doing wrong in regards with living a Christian life. I know that I am a child of God and I know my purpose in life is to be an instrument of his will and to be a light that shines in the darkness. I strongly have been convicted but in seeking him more I'm studying his Grace, Love and the Fruits of The Spirit. I know if i'm made perfect in love then I have peace and that peace that passeth all understanding is in my heart with Christ my Lord. When it comes to be unequally yoked with my spouse I understand that I am to be at peace with all men and if I am then I also have fruit as we'll. I am finding it very difficult to live with my family who are unequally yoked and still share the deeds of this world. It's very hard but if I understand the word that if his grace is sufficient for me then that's all I need and also to understand that true love and pure love casts out all fear. So why do I feel bad in participating with either watching TV with her or my kids, movies, family gatherings etc.... ? I ask the Lord to show me how to love like Jesus, Talk like Jesus, Walk like Jesus, but how do I converse with family members or even friends who are in spiritual darkness? I know it says that If I am light I should have no dealings with the darkness but how can I ever lead my family or friends to Christ if I am not willing to take time to be with them. I've learned when I am in these situations I keep praying in my head and it really helps. But I love my wife and I know that Gods sovereignty was that we be together but it's hard you know and it can be very very draining. Any advice. I want to serve my God first but also share the love of Jesus. TY

"PEACE With God," and knowing what good "tribulation worketh in us" ( Romans 5:1-5)
"For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us." ( Romans 8:18)
The Spirit "helps our infirmities, And Prays For us" ( Romans 8:26)
The Spirit "Intercedes For us, According To The Will Of God" ( Romans 8:27)
God Makes "all things Work Together For Good," for HIS Own ( Romans 8:28)
We are "Predestinated To Be Conformed To The Image Of God's SON" ( Romans 8:29)
God Helps us "bear our testings" ( 1 Corinthians 10:13)
We have The Wonderful "Comfort Of God!" ( 2 Corinthians 1:3-4)
"For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a Far More Exceeding and Eternal Weight of Glory" ( 2 Corinthians 4:17)
God will "change our vile body" to be "like HIS Glorious Body!" ( Philippians 3:21) Amen?
Conclusion:
"For our infirmities/sufferings"? Should we not "follow Paul our 'pattern'" ( 1 Ti 1:16)?:
"And HE Said Unto me, My GRACE Is Sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that The Power of CHRIST may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for CHRIST's Sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong." ( 2 Corinthians 12:9-10)
{Why do so-called "faith healers" ignore This Excellent Word Of God?}
Amen? And Amen.
Please Be Richly Encouraged, Enlightened, Exhorted, and Edified!

God's 'Simple' Will: Link
Does the bible clarify why faith will become difficult? First, the bible warns, major lies will sweep masses of people in wrong directions. We are told, faith in God will become somehow counter-cultural, even splitting up families. The bible's warns of a fundamental global change. Physical money will become useless. Imagine if you cannot buy food for your family. Financial exchange will continue everywhere, but soon only digitally. Maybe a public promotion kicks off virtual cash with a large gift of digital currency to each person who joins the system. "Just take the mark". If your family hasn't eaten in weeks, would you take it? Talk about stress, would another of your family members, to stop the suffering hunger? Read Revelation 14:9, it speaks of eternal torment for everyone who takes the mark of the beast. Pressure against believers will be so intense that many Christians the bible says, will turn and take the damning mark. Their decision will be to their own destruction forever
I would love to start coming on here because I do believe as many should that we ought to be strengthened together in unity as Jesus Christ wants us to be. I have a few concerns in regards to things i've experienced and ever wonder if anyone still experiences this so here it goes. I have been a christian for going on three years but it wasn't until recently that I felt the power of the Holy Spirit more and understand my purpose in life. In my journey with the Lord he is giving me more boldness, strength, and braveness. I don't really know how to speak to people and I was very insecure since being a child but it truly is remarkable as to how God can use anyone. My question is that is it normal to see brothers and sisters that you have fellowship once a Sunday to not show so much enthusiasm (being on fire) for the Lord ? I find myself when I meet a Christian brother and sister I want to talk about Christ and keep on but no one really wants to with me. Just a few things here and there but I just feel like the things that are very important to me may not be important. Is it normal to feel like this ? Is it normal to open up to your pastor but not get any encouragement or calls to see how you are doing ? Shouldn't the pastor guide and feed the sheep ? I am not one to say just because this happens I will lose my faith. God has shown me through prayer and thanksgiving that he loves me and know that I have a purpose in life and that's to do his will. I may not have the most wisdom but right now I am trying to understand more of his grace and love so I can be made perfect in his love. John 4 says there will be a time where the true believers will worship God in spirit and in truth . So are we at that point now a days ? Has the salt really left ? I mean I know I am not the only one that feels like this or am I ? Would love to get some insight on this. God Bless you my friends.
Precious friends, Please Be Encouraged/Edified in This Important "study" of three baptisms:
God's Word Of Truth, Rightly Divided, 'Shows water' is NOT Under God's GRACE, Today:
(1) Prophecy/Law for ISRAEL: The Twelve Were Sent to water baptize!
The TWO Main, of 12 baptisms =
A) water, For remission of sins/induction into Israeli "priesthood!" {separate "study" IF you wish...} ( Matthew 3:5-6) ( Mark 1:4) ( Luke 3:3) ( John 1:31) ( Luke 7:29-30) ( Acts 10:37) ( Matthew 28:19) ( Mark 16:16) ( Acts 2:38) ( Acts 22:16) ( Ezekiel 36:25) ( John 18:35) ( Exodus 19:6) +
B) WITH The Holy Spirit, Poured Out By CHRIST, for power, signs And wonders! ( Isaiah 44:3) ( Matthew 3:11) ( Mark 1:8) ( Mark 16:17-18) ( Luke 24:49) ( Acts 2:17-18) ( Acts 2:38) ( Acts 8:15-17) ( Acts 11:16)
Prophecy/Law
Rightly Divided ( 2 Timothy 2:15) From Things That Differ!:
(2) Mystery/GRACE! = our "apostle to the Gentiles" for The Body Of CHRIST:
Paul Was Not Sent to {water} baptize! Why Not?:
Today: 'Only ONE' Baptism = "BY" The ONE Spirit = God's OPERATION, Spiritually Identifying members In (The ONE Body Of) CHRIST!! ( Ephesians 4:5) ( Colossians 2:12) ( Galatians 3:27) ( Romans 6:3-4) ( 1 Corinthians 12:13) --------------------------------------------------
Thus, This ONE Baptism Is Performed, By God, Today, Under God's GRACE/MYSTERY Program, when the sinner "believes in CHRIST, that He died and rose again, and God saves them" in the twinkling of an eye.
Thus, "water baptism" Is Scriptural, But Dispensationally, "was for the Previous Law/Prophecy Program" of God, For ISRAEL!
Conclusion, water baptism is Scriptural, but, TODAY, is UNdispensational! Amen?
Precious friends, Please be Richly Encouraged, enlightened, exhorted, and edified!"

And in 2 Chronicles 21 1 Who is giving David to take count of the Israelites?
And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
Philippians 2:10
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Isaiah 37:16
O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made heaven and earth.
Genesis 2:4
These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,
Psalms 19:1. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
John 1:3 - All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. Romans 1:20 - For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Ecclesiastes 3:11 - He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end. Genesis 2:1
1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
Comment by Mishael: I pray for angels to guard the 4 corners of my home. I have never had any demonic manifestations for 36 years. God gave us DOMINION; and Jesus gives us HIS AUTHORITY to to stop satanic activity immediately.

You forgot to put these words in red as these are Jesus' words. This passage is so encouraging to me because it's when Jesus heals the ear of the high priest's servant. What I read into this passage is that this servant now has undeniable proof of the holiness of our Lord and Savior, an eye witness, and Jesus is willing to do this healing despite being arrested and led to what he knows will be his death. The only thing that concerns me is that Jesus told his disciples to purchase the swords, by selling their coats. He appears to be setting the scene for this miracle. However, maybe he just wanted his disciples to have arms in order to be able to get away. Thanks for making this book available in this form online.
not from men or woman.
But if the bible is not quoted from the bible;
would wisdom still be of much value?
Jesus quoted his fathers words perfectly ( John 8). and the prophets
spoke from God ( Psalm 83:18)
Who is much wiser? Who is wiser to instruct mankind?
God ( Psalm 83:18) and his Son?
2 Timothy 3:16,17;
2 Peter 1:20,21 (holy spirit John 4:24)
John 17:3
John 14:6-28
Psalm 1:1-3
or
Men and many books?
Jeremiah 10:23
Romans 3:23
Ecclesiastes 12:12-14
Psalms. 146:3, 4
Hope you like

I would like some insight if I may. I have been a Christian going on three years. And as of recently I read a book entitled Absolute Surrender by Andrew Murray which changed my life and gave a lot of clarity on what I was doing wrong in regards with living a Christian life. I know that I am a child of God and I know my purpose in life is to be an instrument of his will and to be a light that shines in the darkness. I strongly have been convicted but in seeking him more I'm studying his Grace, Love and the Fruits of The Spirit. I know if i'm made perfect in love then I have peace and that peace that passeth all understanding is in my heart with Christ my Lord. When it comes to be unequally yoked with my spouse I understand that I am to be at peace with all men and if I am then I also have fruit as we'll. I am finding it very difficult to live with my family who are unequally yoked and still share the deeds of this world. It's very hard but if I understand the word that if his grace is sufficient for me then that's all I need and also to understand that true love and pure love casts out all fear. So why do I feel bad in participating with either watching TV with her or my kids, movies, family gatherings etc.... ? I ask the Lord to show me how to love like Jesus, Talk like Jesus, Walk like Jesus, but how do I converse with family members or even friends who are in spiritual darkness? I know it says that If I am light I should have no dealings with the darkness but how can I ever lead my family or friends to Christ if I am not willing to take time to be with them. I've learned when I am in these situations I keep praying in my head and it really helps. But I love my wife and I know that Gods sovereignty was that we be together but it's hard you know and it can be very very draining. Any advice. I want to serve my God first but also share the love of Jesus. TY
