Matthew Chapter 19 Discussion Page 4

V21_ Jesus is encouraging people to be industrious, sell your products/services, to enable themselves to have enough money to help the poor after the needs of their family are met. Follow Jesus is to lead a Christian life that includes charity to those in need. Money in excess, being Rich, leads to vanity and false thinking of being "better than" someone that has less money.

Christians are to honor their parents as Christ honored his father, who is in heaven.

This is the way as a child of Jesus Christ shall live loving and honoring Jesus honoring ours parents because when we honor our parent we honor the word that Jesus told us to do love our children love one another seek peace love the unlovable pray for the unsave make sure we have the Holy Spirit who will lead us to all truth pray always study the word every day help those that need help .

May God count us worthy of His Great Kingdom.

Verses 27 through 29 shows that all the work we are putting in will be rewarded.

To disciple on 2/20 - It's still troubling you - the eye of the needle. It was just a comment on my part; has nothing to do with salvation ( Acts 2:37-38). Please, let the Lord put your mind at ease about - and go on with Him from faith to faith; God Bless you, disciple.

Maya Angelou quote - "Somehow we have come to the erroneous belief that we are all but flesh, blood and bones, and that's all. So we direct our values to material things." Matt. 19:22; Lk.18:23.

Honour thy Mother and thy Father and love your neighbour as i have love you what a beautiful word. Obedience to God's words are more important than sacrifice. If you love Jesus you will keep his commandments till rapture. Thanks to your blood Jesus and help me to be born again in spirit. I will praise you and worship you alone for you are my rock and my salvation Amen

Dear God, help me to once and for all forgive my mother to let go once and for all the bad memories of her making me feel like I was to blame for her having to get married and not being happy. I know she suffered at the end of her life, and I want to just forgive, but the enemy keeps throwing it at me. I just want to, today, on Valentine's Day, to finally forgive her, and let her go to be happy and at peace. Thank you, God, for listening. In Jesus' mighty name, Amen.

Amen!

We should honor both of our parents no matter what age we are. This would include showing respect and showing our parents that we value them.

My comments on verse 9 I feel if you get a divorce if the man or the woman gets put away just don't marry, cause I want to go to heaven and I don't want nothing hendering me from going, so I suggest just stay single and live for the Lord. We have so many people today just marriing and if they don't like this one, they go and get another, not of the Lord.

I have no reason whatsoever to Divorce (I don't believe in it)

Nick, if those in heaven did not have "free will ", satan would still be there! Verse 9 says "fornication " is the only acceptable cause of divorce and if a man divorce his wife without this cause and she remarries, she has sinned and the man caused it by putting her away, i.e. divorcing her.

Could all you be blind, surely he is telling you that this is the mentality of those in paradise. No cares, worries, needs, wants or free will, you will be like children !

Our Salvation is of God. We cannot by ourselves make heaven. But the comforting word in verse 26 is "with God nothing shall be impossible ". Amen.

Jesus gave me the power to tell the world the gospel thats proof he is almighty

Hello Tricia We are married under the laws of God and man. You cannot get married without following the laws of this land. The preacher cannot marry you unless he is ordained to marry you. The only way he is ordained is by the statues and laws of that religion and the law of this land. It is set up so that this world will not recognize marriage without following certain rules of this land. I understand what you are saying but this is how they are able to give written letters of divorcement. Moses did it back in the day. In the beginning it was not so. Read over in 1 Corinthians 7 concerning men and women. Read Matthew 5 Matthew 19 and Mark 10. In the end, marriage is an institution in which one should not enter in lightly. It is a commitment between a man and a woman. This is the only type of marriage that God recognizes.

God 's rules and never change, he it 's true to his word. In society I believe when a couple it 's married by church, a judge in court should not be allowed to divorce them, the Law of Society should stay separate from God 's ruling.

Hello Dan It is hard for them to humble themselves because they have everything and can purchase everything. However, it is not hopeless. Remember God can do anything. Nothing is impossible for God verse 26. If there is someone who is rich and God s wants their attention he can get it. Money is not the problem. It is the love of money that is the problem, 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, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows .

It is very clear, Jesus is saying it is IMPOSSIBLE for anyone to gain heaven when the have wealth. He was clear about having "stuff "... Materail goods...you mustn 't have ANY...give it athose in need and spread the message. This seems to be missed by American Christians, and especially by their currupted, hypercritical, preachers! Don 't over think this...he says it twice to be clear so a child could understand.

Please help me with verse 9,am confuse.

Yahshua Messiah made himself a eunuch for the kingdom of Heaven 's sake.

Like any other verse in the bible ,this verse has been put together in most simple meaning to bring us closer to the real thoughts of our Lord. Meaning what may eventually read out or spoken out of a single bible verse, will have different lots of meaning definitions to mankind. DOes that really necessarily mean they all truth??? i leave to people to decided and ponder on that. In the meantime,back to this verse, im no different from the rest of you who have been pondering on this verse.But great is this opportunity site to share what i learn from this verse. Mark 10 14 15 quoting ...suffer the little children to come unto me,and forbid them not for of such is the kingdom of God. 15 Verily i say unto you,Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child.he shall not enter therein ' '... the comparison is been made between receiving little children to be similar to receiving the kingdom of God.God wants us to receive and care and nurture and treasure the kingdom of God ,just like how much we care for our own children. Linking to this verse i gain a verse where people asked 'where is the kingdom of God ' ' Jesus reveal the kingdom of God is found within you ' '.

This was sent to me by a Christian friend today. I have no power of my own. I don 't need it. I just have to trust God The Father the Son and The Holy Spirit.

If a wife commit adultery and fornication and divorce her husband and married her lover will she be an adulterer?

Matthew 19 26 is loud and clear. I give honour to GOD HE SAVE ME HE DELIVERED ME AND SANCTIFY ME WHOLLY THROUGH THE GOD OF PEACE. FOR MAN THE THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD IT IS POSSIBLE. JESUS CAN SAVE YOU FROM YOUR SIN. SOME MEN WHO ARE IN THEIR SIN DON 'T WANT YOU TO BELIEVE YOU CAN LIVE FREE FROM SIN. THEY PREACH WE HAVE ALL COME SHORT OF GLORY. The word says GROW IN GRACE AND IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. IN JESUS THERE IS NO SIN. IN CHRIST AND CHRIST IN ME I AM A SAINT. I AM SAVED FROM SIN. WHAT ' 'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR MAN IS POSSIBLE FOR GOD. If you repent of your sin, sins sinning that means you are sorry and you won 't don 't do it again. If you do you have an advocate with the father who is JESUS CHRIST.

This is the first commandment with a promise. Failure to do this is dishonorable and will lead to us losing out on the blessings attached to observing this.

Definition of marriage and its togetherness is perfectly explained by Lord Jesus. What a Savior and God! Any one who is going to has already entered into marital relationship needs to take a perfect lesson from this scripture Matt 19 4 9. Look for the person that God has for you and not for the one you desire, else the end result as we all know will be disastrous.

Does not matter how your parents have treated you I am to honor them if I want Blessings from God. There was a time I didn 't but when I got right with God and found this out with God 's help I did. I had to care for my mother about 8 9 years and I got so close to her that I grew more and more in love with her. I also learned who my mom was. I was always partial to my dad and dad me. He passed before mom. It was a pleasure to know and love my mom in a special way. To love my neighbor as myself is those I am around I am still learning to do that. I will keep on continually trying grow in that area.
