    How does stuff and rod can "comfort" me?) there's wrong translation. In original text "rod" has meaning "clan", "society", "family". "stuff" has meaning "support", and "comfort" has meaning "appeasement", "harmony". I prefer to "my famy and they're support can appeasement me" instead "rod and stuff can comfort me")

    Judas was never saved so he did not lose his salvation, according to John 6:70.

    John 6:70

    Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?

    Jesus did not say, "One of you disciples may fall back into sin if he is not careful." No, Jesus said, "One of you is a devil," referring to Judas.

    Mark 2 - the Sabbath

    21 No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.

    22 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.

    23 And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.

    24 And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?

    25 And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him?

    26 How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the shewbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him?

    27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:

    28 Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.

    Strict observance of laws and ordinances are not as important to the Lord as seeking and serving God with all your heart. In fact, many detailed Jewish laws do not even pertain to the Church, which is seen by Jesus' reference to not putting new wine into old bottles.

    Are there angels assigned to the believer?

    First, we must establish the readers to know who is the church. Church is not a building. Church is the people that believes in the blood shed by Jesus Christ to save us. Church is the Body of Christ. Church is the people that walk in the Spirit of God and the people who are in the Kingdom of God. Are you one of us?

    "And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence." Colossians 1:18 KJV

    "Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body's sake, which is the church:" Colossians 1:24 KJV

    "Salute the brethren which are in Laodicea, and Nymphas, and the church which is in his house." Colossians 4:15 KJV

    "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." Matthew 16:18 KJV

    "As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed." Romans 9:33 KJV

    "And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ." 1 Corinthians 10:4 KJV

    "And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:" Galatians 1:22 KJV

    "For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body." Ephesians 5:23 KJV

    "That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish." Ephesians 5:27 KJV

    "For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:" Ephesians 5:29 KJV

    "For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones." Ephesians 5:30 KJV

    "This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church." Ephesians 5:32 KJV

    I remember the verses. " And Lucifer said I will be like God. I will be God! I will take over Gods throne. And Michael and his angels fought back. And cast that ancient serpent (Lucifer ) from heaven." Where is that??? By the way my sons name comes from those verses. He is named after the angel Michael.

  • Kay - 1 year ago
    Greetings in Christ, one and all, and grace and peace from God our Father through Christ Jesus, in the power of the Holy Spirit to each reader!

    Recently, as soon as I woke up one morning, the Lord put the word, "loving-kindness' on my heart. He began to instruct me that we may do kind things for someone, i.e., we can open a door for someone, we can pick up something for someone that they've dropped, we can run an errand for someone...but it doesn't necessarily mean that we LOVE them.

    Not so with God.

    His GREAT GREAT and STUPENDOUS kindness shown us in the face of Jesus Christ is shown to us in LOVE. God gives nothing to us grudgingly. God does not regret any kindness that He shows us. God isn't weary of being kind to us. God doesn't 'do' things for us to be 'polite', or 'civil' - with very little or no TRUE love!

    God loves us, and every single act of kindness, every grace, mercy, and blessing that God bestows upon us, is given out of a heart of immense, immeasurable love!

    How special, then, does that make HIS kindness to us? How thankful, how joyful we can be at this reality!

    The other side is, as we understand more deeply how God moves towards US with loving-kindness - let us ask Him for grace to do things for others, not just out of 'civility', or 'politeness', or because 'it's expected of us by society," but let us be kind BECAUSE WE ARE LOVED OF GOD, and therefore, with THAT love bestow kindness on others!

    Glory to God now and evermore!

    We are a tribe

    One tribe out of many. Individuals but from the same.

    Evidence of the tribe is the history of who we were!

    God loves the tribe, He created it!

    All tribes are Signiant, they think differently, they experience differently, yet they are all from the same.

    The creator has given the keys, and yet we do not use them.

    These keys will open the universe, avenues that some tribes may never come to know.

    The keys are here, do you know where they are?

    You must look inside you to find them, then you will see who has the real keys!

    You will begin to see the universe of love, a love beyond the comprehension of the mind!

    Look inside, not outside, and you will find the keys!

    Hi Giannis.

    Here we have those who wanted the Gentiles to be circumcised. A seal "Binding them to the law."

    And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

    And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;

    And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

    Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

    But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.

    Acts 15:7-11.

    Did you catch what Peter said? He says we "Jews" shall be saved even as they "Gentiles" you would think it should be the other way around!! reminds you of Romans 11:25-26. Then James put it in sequence here in vs 16.

    After this I WILL RETURN, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up:

    This is all future.

    Concerning Judas.

    John 18:9.

    That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spake, Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none.

    Judas had done already betrayed Jesus, but yet Jesus I have lost none!

    Judas was never chosen to sit on the twelve thrones, Every time he was mentioned we were reminded that he was going to betray Jesus. Jesus called him a devil and a their BEFORE he betrayed him. He was never saved.

    God bless you Giannis

    I will be talking to you tomorrow.

    Why doesn't God communicate with us or talk

    Hi Giannis.

    Part 1

    As I promised I would get back to you on your reply and questioning.

    Let's start with the verses you gave as the promises that Israel forfeited over to the Church.

    1. Genesis 12:1-3,

    2. Genesis 12:7,

    3. Genesis 13:14-17,

    4. Genesis 15:5-7

    5. Genesis 15:13-15,

    6. Genesis 15:18-21,

    7. Genesis 17:4-10,

    8. Genesis 21:17-18

    You stated, "Abraham and his seed pass to Jesus and His children. and you say according to

    Galatians 3:16. Paul atributes these verses to Christ it is obvious that they are for Israel as well.

    Let's look at Galatians 3:14-17.

    If you notice in the link the promise/covenant was not a land covenant. Verses 2-8 you gave are all the land covenant.

    Did you notice in Genesis 15:15-17. God told Abraham he would die before they would enter the land?

    Look how Stephen put in Acts 7:4-5.

    "and is is after God performed the covenant!!" So when will he inherit it? Hebrews11:8-10.

    Now the 1st verse is a preview of both. The Promise his seed going to be given land. "Israel"

    ( and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. ) "Christ"

    This is the only portion associated with Galatians 3:16.

    Here is the covenant Paul is speaking of in Galatians.

    ( And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son:

    That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; AND THY SEED SHALL POSSESS THE GATE OF "HIS" ENEMIES;

    And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice. )

    Genesis 22:16-18.

    The Gospel was preached even before there was a law to be broken.

    Galatians 3:8.

    " Important verse"

    I removed "if it" because I believe it's in italics and shouldn't be there.

    ( Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet be confirmed, NO MAN DISANNULLETH, OR ADDETH THERETO.) Galatians 3:15.

  • Erich on John 8:6 - 1 year ago
    Verse 51- "Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death". This is such a powerful verse. there are so many people out there who are falsely claiming that once a person is saved they are always saved. They will say that disobedience to Christ will lead to chastisement or physical death, but, they are eternally secure. However, this could not be further from the truth and makes Christ out to be a liar. Very interesting that Christ says IF a man keeps his sayings they shall never see death, which is spiritual death. I just had a guy yesterday try telling me that all "true believers" will keep his sayings. However, my question is why did Christ not say that? And, why did Paul write in Romans 2:6-9 "Who will render to every man according to his deeds:To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:"? Paul knew there would be those in the church who would use their liberty in Christ as a license to sin, which is why he specifically warned BELIEVERS against walking away from Christ. He is 100% clear that salvation is conditional. He further highlights this in Gal. 5: 1-4 "Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free (true believers), and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace." Notice, we as (true) believers can be SEVERED from Christ and fallen from grace. If Christ is the only way to Heaven, how can think we are eternally secure if God's very word warns against it? The OSAS crowd can't prove the Bible teaches "true" believers will automatically endure to the end. We must follow the spirit and never walk away of an evil heart of unbelief!!

    ISRAEL

    The Jews in the land of Israel today cannot prove which tribe they are from. There is no priest of the tribe of Levi.

    The Old Testament Israel, that died in UNBELIEF, are dead and in their graves.

    They CANNOT be grafted into the kingdom of God until the SECOND RESURRECTION.

    Matthew 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, that ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye shall also sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of ISRAEL.

    This cannot happen until the SECOND RESURRECTION.

    Hebrews 4:2 For unto us the GOSPEL was preached, as well as unto them: but THE WORD preached did not prophet them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.

    God Bless God!

  • Erich on Romans 8 - 1 year ago
    Love the Book of Romans. Here in ch. 8 we see a very clear explanation on how the Spirit filled Christian is to live. We stand by faith, and our faith in Christ is the means of our salvation. 1 Pt. 1:5 tells us we are kept by the power of God through faith, which is a living continual faith that is rooted in love and obedience to Christ. Now, some may say "What does it mean to be obedient to Christ?". It not only means to believe on Him, but, to express it in love ( John 13:34; 1 John ch. 1-2). How can we, as followers of Christ, say he is our Savior from sin and the penalty of sin, but, continue living in willful sin? We can't. Some will say that I am preaching a "work-based salvation", but, I am preaching a Biblical based salvation. One that is centered on the committing and dedicating our lives to the one, and only one, who gave His life for forgiveness of our sins! Only those who truly commit their lives to Christ will be saved. Anyone who claims Christ, but, lives in the flesh is not fit for the Kingdom of Heaven.

    We, as followers of Christ, need to follow the Holy Spirit and set our minds on the things above. We were once alienated from Christ based on our wicked works ( Eph. 2: 2-3). We were once children of darkness, but, now are saved by the blood of Christ. He is the one who presents us holy and un-blamable in the sight of God IF we continue in the faith ( Col. 1: 21-23; Gal. 5: 1-5). We also see that Biblical faith is one that expresses itself in love ( gal. 5: 6). We need to remember that only those who endure to the end in faith will reap eternal life ( Romans 2: 6-11; Gal. 6: 7-9; Mt. 10: 22; 1 Jn. 2: 24-25; 1 Cor. 15; 1-2).
