The better way to see this situation is how is God going to fix this? We will witness the the wisdom of God unfolding before us. I know there are lots of legitimate questions regarding what David is doing; however, I need to trust in my God in the "why." I must remind myself that God's wisdom is way above, as well as deeper than my own wisdom.
What is the scriptural answer to healing autism. Please backup answers with scriptures only. Also be relevant and don't start arrogantly spouting off about your personal story that is unrelated to the question or how you are like paul or any of the disciples. If your personal story is related to the topic by all means elaborate.
"GOD said by the prophet Malachi: Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet BEFORE the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD, and he fulfilled His Word in the turn of the FOURTH to the FIFTH Day. By the way, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me: Do you believe in JESUS? What was revealed to Malachi chap.4, my Lord JESUS left clear saying unto His disciples: Matt.11:v.10-12"
Young man, I would care to place a bet that Malachi 4:5 occurs between ( Revelation 6:13-14) & ( Revelation 6:12). Since Jesus had to point him out to the others, few will know who he is this day.
I just located the scriptures that show that we won't be shuffling around aimlessly In heaven;
Beyond the time it takes for earth to be purified by fire.
We will have work to do. :D That's why we will help organize, angels work. I have not imagination to try and anticipate anything.
I also feel this deep urge to bow down and worship Jesus! Excited too, to see what He does next!!
Am I nuts or does anyone else find this an awesome prospect?
Right this moment on digs in Israel, they are finding answers, locations, relics of olden sacrifice implements. They found a copper scroll, that the letters were pressed in upon it. Jews are getting thrilled over the discoveries. The 1st copper scroll points to a 2nd one, in another location: supposedly which the Palestinians control. They have no claim against the Covenant of the Land, God made with Abraham. He clearly outlined the perimeters.
"Ishmael descendants", have no claim!!
They do have the same right to become children of God, through Jesus Christ.
PLEEAASSE pray for the Peace of Jerusalem every day. Jesus said it. We need to obey it.
When building on the 3rd Temple commences, all rejection, roadblocks, outcry from non-Jewish governments are going to swell up like a tsunami.
The Antichrist will briefly sit on the 3rd Temple Throne.
I did this very long tracing of history on ancestors sojourns. How one ancestor moved to Moab. Moab was an enemy of The covenant Jews; which persisted. It said they will agree to allow the Jews to flee to the mountains in Moab. For how long I don't know. The Antichrist will pursue them.
My excitement is that these archaeological digs going on now, are a huge leap in prophesy. You will see The Church explode in evangelism as this progresses.
Look at a map with Moab on it. It's not that far. It will be comparable to the Red Sea & Moses.
God is about to pour out the anointing oil of prophesy on those He trusts.
I was saved a few months ago. I am a stay at home mother with a husband who has no interest in church so I attend church every day on tv when he is not home. I want to be babtized but churches near me require I attend their church for months before they will baptize me. I honor my husband by keeping my faith to myself. His father lead me in my faith and was a Pentecostal preacher. He briefly lost his faith and stopped preaching but is now as faithful as ever. Can my father in law baptize me since no one else is willing to?
If Gog/thebeast(of Revelation), anti-christ did all that God asked of him, by destroying Israel/Babylon, then what turned God against hisprized army? Theanswer is "at thesame time" by doing God's will, thebeastthinks an "evil thought".
Ezekiel 38:10-13
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that AT THE SAME TIME shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an EVIL THOUGHT:
11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil, and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
Daniel has a connection to vs 13 above:
( Daniel 7:24) And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them (anti-christ); and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings, [Sheba, and Dedan, and Tarshish].
( Daniel 11:42) He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape. [Saudi Arabia, Egypt & Turkey?]
The beast attacks 3 of 10 nations gathered unto him, nations dis-loyal thatsurround Israel. He subdues and spoils them by ground warfare (like Judah), not by annihilating them to dust like the house of Israel (Isaiah:13). God is mad because this violence has destroyed earth, knocked it off its axis ( Isaiah 24: 18) the sun, moon are ashamed. anti-christseeks a "Greater Israel Project" of his own, with limited time.
Obadiah 1:10 For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever.
This is the 1st time we hear claim of violence against Esau. In real life, the last time Esau and Jacob saw each was on the trail, and Jacob feared Esau would kill him for stealing the birthright, ( Genesis 33). Any previous mention of Gog/the beast anti-christ were glowing. God used Esau's "sanctified" beast army to defeat Jacob (Babylon); anti-christ's army are described as "even them that rejoice in my highness". Gog/beast are Christian's from a (frozen) desert ( Isaiah 21:1). The times God brags about His "northern army" are many.
He calls anti-christ's army, "His army", His "sanctified ones" and "His camp".
( Isaiah 13: 3-6) I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness.
4 The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
6 Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
( Joel 2:11) And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?
What did Esau do to change God's mind into HATING him? Esau did God's will and destroyed Babylon, so what happened beyond that? What violence does anti-christ do to infuriate God?
Why is it that whenever the Jews are counted it incurs the wrath of God? Don't the present day Jews partake in a census as do most nations? What if any repercussions do they suffer?
Should a pastor call out what is sinful in a church concerning members who may be living in sin & working in the ministry of the church, asking the members to step down from the ministry?
Having a license of a minister with credentials of being licensed. Why is it that a Pastor that you are under for nine yrs. will not teach the licensed minister what her role of that title should be about?
How can the Bible scriptures comfort a mother who's son at age 26 was murdered. Her son with child she says was the love of his life, and he just won a custody battle, planning a trip with his daughter, was murdered the weekend planned to leave on the trip. She is lost and she ask me to guide her to the gospels and bible scriptures that may help her. Can you help me with my situation ?
In my walk with the Lord for many years, something has bothered me, and wonder if anyone can give some word of wisdom. (I have prayed about it too). I don't feel like an evangelist. Should I feel guilty? I am very called to talk with strangers everywhere I go, and I can strike a conversation with anyone. I talk with street people, homeless, or CEO's, doesn't matter. But I don't feel called to evangelize. I feel called to listen deeply to the person, listen for their spirit, and to uplift them through the Holy Spirit. If they ask about me, I immediately say I follow Christ, and if there is an opening, i go further. I feel joy, just being with people the Lord sends me to. Am I not doing enough? Is everyone supposed to evangelize? Is the Good News only in the written gospel, or can it be spread through Christ's love? Perhaps I need prayer, I don't know.
"Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die."
Soul definition: the soul is our humanity that makes us feel emotions The spirit is our deeper connection with the Lord when we believe in God and RECEIVE Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.
This is a question that is not easy to point out in our everyday Christian lives. While it is not so difficult to distinguish the body from the spirit and the soul; it is particularly difficult to distinguish the soul from the spirit. How are they different?
There are a few places in the Bible where the body, soul, and spirit are mentioned
1 Thessalonians 5:23, Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We are composed of three parts. It is easy to distinguish the body as physical (sight, hearing, taste, smell, touch). The spirit and soul are much more difficult because they seem similar, but are actually very different.
They have different functions in our lives as Christians in Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Matthew 10:28:And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
The soul is basically our mind, our emotions, and our will. It is who we are as human beings. It is also used to express God. As written in Luke 1:46-47, Mary said: My SOUL glorifies the Lord and my SPIRIT rejoices in God my Savior."
The function of the spirit is spiritual. The spirit is the only way to connect with God, and we can only use the spirit if we are born again, and receive The Holy Spirit through our Lord Jesus Christ's salvation.
The Gap Theory was developed based on wording of 1Genesis:1-2 and theorizes the world is much older and different than the world that was created for our existence over 6000 years ago. This old world could be million of years old and consisted of dinosaurs, unusual animals/plants and bi-pedal animals/neandrathals. Fossil records, skeletal remains prove their existence and sediment studies and fossil fuel formation indicate everything was destroyed and buried during a cataclysmic event. This event flooded the entire planet and destroyed ALL life and plunged the world into perpetual darkness. This is called the Pre-Adamic flood.
God went on to complete creating our current world for us as we know it that is over 6000 years old. God also commands us to repopulate the the earth implying it was once before occupied. Also the context used when God promised to not use flooding again as punishment after Noahs flood (destroyed all non-marine life) supports probability of pre-adam flood.
My Comment: You might want to read this article on Mystery Babylon. It's rather long. I had always thought "it" was a collection of false religions, false teachers, false prophets. Read at your own risk.
My comment: they're all gonna burn. If you have anything remotely occultic in your home ? Burn it. Including objects other people have brought into your home. You're the Priest of your home. Acts 19:19

The Book of Revelation - Chapter Seventeen - BibleOneDOTnet
"A harlot is an individual who has been ... When the same angel that showed John in this chapter "Mystery, Babylon the Great," came to ..."
Testimony: I came out of that net of evil, so be careful what your mind is fed. I say this because if you're having some chaos happen in your home; you need to clean it. Again, Acts 19:19.
May CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.
John wrote these words 1900 hundred years ago. It could be another 2000 years or more until the second resurrection, NO ONE KNOWS. These words have to have the same meaning to all who read them; whatever time (1900 years ago or 2000 years from now) they themselves are in.
Babylon REPRESENTS something, it is not literal.
Judah was taken into captivity by Babylon because they LOVED the world more than they loved God.
It is no different TODAY we LOVE the world more than we love God.
We (creation) are a HARLOT OF BABYLON because we have left our FIRST LOVE (our husband, Christ) and dote on the things of the world.
We to are a captive of Babylon.
Jesus came to set the CAPTIVES free (liberty in Christ).
Revelation 18:4 And I heard a voice in heaven, saying, COME OUT OF HER, my people....
Come back to your HUSBAND. Become ONE.
You must DIE (first death) to the world, you must give YOUR LIFE for CHRIST as he gave HIS LIFE FOR YOU.
Colossians 1:27 ... mystery of the ages.... CHRIST (who ONLY hath immortality) IN YOU, the hope of glory.
Philippians 2:5 Let THIS MINE be in you, which was also IN CHRIST JESUS:
Philippians 2:6 Who being in the form (image) of GOD, thought it not robbery to be EQUAL WITH GOD.
Christ and the Father are ONE.
John 17:21 That they ALL BE ONE, as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be ONE IN US: that the world MAY BELIEVE that thou has sent me.
Jesus told Judah (his chosen) that they would DIE in Babylon.
If you Google "Old Earth Theory" (although I do not recommend that),
The whole theory has a large following; lots of books written.
My opinion is that it is HERESY.
How do I know that? One of The Holy Spirit's ministry is, TEACHER. He said: "In Beginning."
I looked through my ancient, to sorta new Bible collection; they all say: IN THE BEGINNING.
The word THE was added to help readers read Genesis 1:1 better. I don't know if it was canonized or was added in later editions.
Guys, if the Holy Spirit says, In Beginning. It means that GOD CREATED TIME, first.
Archaeological finds, carbon dating, DNA analysis, proves the earths age is billions years old. Not 6000 years old. Something big hit the earth and killed everything, except the "conies" which survived the event. Their name is in the Bible. Their carbon date shows by living underground, their date is different.
Scientists have discovered with probes that all the planets had water/ice at one time. But the water evaporated because of heat. All except earth. Only earth has gravity and an ozone that protects us from rays. Very interesting.
The goal of all sciences is to explain 4 Things: Time, Force, Action, Matter (in that order). No one has ever gotten a Nobel Prize for TIME.
They will not solve it until they accept the reality of a Supreme CREATOR.
If you carefully read and contemplate; ask the Holy Spirit to TEACH you, you will see that in Genesis 1:1-2 all those 4 questions are explained.
If you slowly read Romans 1 you will understand as I did, that God made all that we see and know; and comprehend, was put here for us to accept the reality that Big Bang did not do all of this.
THE GODHEAD CREATED IT. Father purposed it, The Word spoke it, the Holy Spirit performed it.
They created everything we see, have learned and know. Beginning with TIME.
Somebody write that book, get rich and give it to the poor. Copy paste this as much as you want.
Hi! my name is mike young and I trust in the good Lord that you are doing good and in good spirit and excitement, anticipating the coming of the Lord Jesus. Even so come, Lord Jesus! Revelation 22:20.
listen, but most importantly listen to what the bible says about the subject... Proverbs 13:11 - Wealth [gotten] by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase. 1 Timothy 6:10 - For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith.
Gambling is the wagering something of value on an event with an uncertain outcome with the intent of winning something of value at someone else loss. And by participating in such practices, we become as guilty as the person we are gambling against, thus leading him or her astray in their wrong doing, of also participating in a wrongful act.
Simply put..."both parties are guilty and leading each other astray from the Lord. "I personally feel that it is definitely wrong and especially when "you know" where the money is coming from and how it was earned? NO! how it was made through gambling at the expense of someone else lost. And then knowingly place it in the Lord's treasure chest of tithing within the church, which is a "holy treasure" unto the Lord, for the purpose to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, a resource(s) to be used for reaching souls and sending missionaries to reach them with the precious word of God. Yes, my dear friend, that could have been the bread and butter of life to some poor mother and child, brother or sister, etc.
Think about it for a moment! If you have participated in such actions, ask the Lord to forgive you. I trust this has encouraged you and in no way have upset you! may God richly bless you through His abundant mercy and the peace of God be upon your household with salvation and great joy!!! John 3:16
Thank you Jesus.
"GOD said by the prophet Malachi: Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet BEFORE the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD, and he fulfilled His Word in the turn of the FOURTH to the FIFTH Day. By the way, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me: Do you believe in JESUS? What was revealed to Malachi chap.4, my Lord JESUS left clear saying unto His disciples: Matt.11:v.10-12"
Young man, I would care to place a bet that Malachi 4:5 occurs between ( Revelation 6:13-14) & ( Revelation 6:12). Since Jesus had to point him out to the others, few will know who he is this day.
Beyond the time it takes for earth to be purified by fire.
We will have work to do. :D That's why we will help organize, angels work. I have not imagination to try and anticipate anything.
I also feel this deep urge to bow down and worship Jesus! Excited too, to see what He does next!!
Am I nuts or does anyone else find this an awesome prospect?
Right this moment on digs in Israel, they are finding answers, locations, relics of olden sacrifice implements. They found a copper scroll, that the letters were pressed in upon it. Jews are getting thrilled over the discoveries. The 1st copper scroll points to a 2nd one, in another location: supposedly which the Palestinians control. They have no claim against the Covenant of the Land, God made with Abraham. He clearly outlined the perimeters.
"Ishmael descendants", have no claim!!
They do have the same right to become children of God, through Jesus Christ.

My excitement is that these archaeological digs going on now, are a huge leap in prophesy. You will see The Church explode in evangelism as this progresses.
Look at a map with Moab on it. It's not that far. It will be comparable to the Red Sea & Moses.
God is about to pour out the anointing oil of prophesy on those He trusts.

Beginning
He created TIME for mankind. It would tick down to zero when He stands up___and the Age is closed out.

And then knowingly place it in the Lord's treasure chest of tithing within the church, which is a "holy treasure" unto the Lord, for the purpose to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, a resource(s) to be used for reaching souls and sending missionaries to reach them with the precious word of God. Yes, my dear friend, that could have been the bread and butter of life to some poor mother and child, brother or sister, etc.
Think about it for a moment! If you have participated in such actions, ask the Lord to forgive you. I trust this has encouraged you and in no way have upset you! may God richly bless you through His abundant mercy and the peace of God be upon your household with salvation and great joy!!! John 3:16
