    Mark 9:29: "And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting." Jesus spoke these words to His disciples when they enquired from Him why they couldn't cast out the evil spirit from the child. However, some manuscripts omit the word "fasting", whereas the KJV which is primarily from the Textus Receptus manuscript includes it.
  • Barbara L Satkoski on Revelation 13:8 - 3 years ago
    Why can't I find Mark chapter 9 verse 29.... When evil is present it requires prayer and fasting?

  • Roy on Revelation 13 - 3 years ago
    The New Testament is full of symbols we must understand what each symbol represents the beast that it's coming up out of the sea and in Revelation 13 is the US we must understand that this beast looks like a lamb which is what a baby Buffalo is called. It's soul purpose is to return power to the dragon. Do you know who the dragon is? It's not satan!

    Wells are very deep and so is the depth of Gods love .

    Amen &Amen

    You could be right Donna. There is a lot of money to be made by these drug companies producing the vaccines, especially when I believe that sufficient testing time has not been given. However, governments are in a quandary: they're responsible for the health & welfare of the people, they want to still allow them to have freedom to move about, but in so doing, this virus cannot be properly contained when people mix closely together. Quite a dilemma & no easy solution for it. I suppose they could have taken the easy, but unwise route, & let everyone live their lives normally, leaving it up to the people to take their own precautions. Many, many more would succumb to the virus & die & then the govt. will get blamed for doing nothing about it. In some countries, govt. rulings are very strict, where liberties are curtailed, but the virus spread is better contained, yet liberties are curtailed. So, what is the correct decision?

    So I don't see it as a 'fear induced' rhetoric by the govt. to take the vaccine, but one of necessity. The only problem is: how effective will the vaccine be & what are the effects of it going to be, given the limited testing & fast roll-out. As Christians, in this matter, as with all things that come before us, we remain safe & confident in the Lord's knowledge & help to us. There is nothing that can touch & harm us His children without His Knowledge & permission. He expects us to use the common sense He gives us, follow the proper rulings set before us, & express full trust in Him for our lives & outcomes. Even in your vulnerable position with health issues, the same Lord is "rich towards all" - He will keep you as you trust Him for the future - stay vigilant - be prayerful.

    I feel like we are being led by fear to take these vaccines! If you don't receive one, you won't be able to get on an airplane, no mask, no church, no funeral attendance. How far will we go before we understand that we are being led like sheep to slaughter. I am elderly, I have MS, so if anyone should be afraid it is me, but I don't believe the masks are helping, but do your own research! The so called ones that are in charge of these vaccines are in it for the money! Trying to be the first in line. It doesn't matter that they have not done enough tests before pushing it on people. How about animal testing first. This is coming too fast for me! FEAR is pushing people to not investigate this!!

    I don't believe there's anything to suggest that it is a 'third world' disease. It might have begun in China, whether in their 'wet' markets or in a lab, but China shouldn't be considered as in the third world bloc even if it's generally placed so. They are a very advanced nation that can be compared to any 'first world' countries. Covid, as with any other epidemic or pandemic in the past, is just another disease that countries have to deal with, & unfortunately, in all cases, its citizens will suffer both in acquiring the disease or having to take extreme preventative measures.

    Jesus told em that the parable of the sower and his seed was the most important parable of all of the parables .jesus said know ye not this parable how then will you know all parables, meaning understanding this parable will lead you to the birth of a child not of this world, a baby christ,and this is the child that will lead you into all truth , the name of this child is emanuel god with us then you will know all parables simply b/c the child is the h.g. as these things are hid from the wise and prudent but revealed unto babes which are the israel of god the very kingdom of god in us via that precious seed the living word. thats y peter was saying being bornagain of an incorruptible seed even by the words of god that liveth and abideth for ever. which is the seed of the sower. thus the parable of the sower is the mediation of the new covenant the words of god the contents of the book in the right hand of the father, and these are the words that are gonna form christ in us and thats y the seeds of the sower are the pearl of great price,its gonna cost ya everything ,remember jesus said count the cost. the merchant man that found the treasure had to sell all in order to buy the field . ya cannot go half way to buy the field of faith as the field contains the words of god, the children, faith comes by hearing the living word, ya gotta realize there is a kingdom child in the good seed which is a baby christ, unless ya receive the kingdom as a lil child you will in no wise enter there in. thats y he always refers to himself as the son of man, we are gonna birth a baby christ which is the h.g. that child of promise from the good seed .who is my mother jesus asked them that hear the word ( good seed ) th seed of the sower which initiates a birth of christ in us. mankind is gonna bring forth fruit unto god via that good seed. thus he is truly the son of man. thats y zech. calls him our 1st born our only son, we've been in mournin for 2000 yrs 2 days for our 1st born. gbu

    In response to the "forehead or hand" ; I don't believe this is literally our foreheads or hands, but rather what we rationalize, give an ear to or believe (forehead) and what are the works of our "hands".

    We will have to trust that God will provide for us even when everything will be taken away from us if we don't follow what the world system has ordered us to do.

    If we all believe this vaccine is changing DNA and is being forced on us or we cannot keep our jobs, we cannot buy or sell without it, and we walk away from this, then our foreheads and hands will be doing the work of God the Father.
  • Nechemyah - In Reply on Revelation 13 - 3 years ago
    No one knows for sure. According to the scriptures, key markers of the beast includes:

    1. Not being able to buy or sell

    2. Something will happen to people who get the mark that will disqualify them.

    3. The COVID vaccine will definitely change your DNA.

    4. The pandemic was totally fabricated to bring in the vaccines

    5. They have something sinister planned (why include nano particles? why change people's DNA? Why include aborted babies and monkey cells?).

    6. This vaccine will never end. They will make you get it ever so often.

    7. Yes. I believe that the vaccine
  • Fred on Revelation 13:15 - 3 years ago
    The Word and the Spirit - Jesus sits at the right hand of the Father.

    When the Church is destroyed, and the wicked no longer feel the condemnation from the preaching of the Word of God and the conviction of the Holy Spirit,

    That is when I believe they will send gifts to one another.

    And the bodies of the church and their testimony of Jesus Christ will lie in the streets for 3 1/2 years.

    And Jesus will return, and God will call us home, saying "Come up hither".



    I believe science and technology are part of the second Beast; and I believe there is a movement now to worship them.

  • Margaret Graham - In Reply on Revelation 13 - 3 years ago
    Thank you so much for this answer as this is the same thoughts I had. Head or hand. Vaccines are in the arm. I have friends that will refuse this vaccine because of their belief that we will be secretly implanted.

    Revelation 14:9

    And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his FOREHEAD, or in his HAND

    (Read that Chapter to be fully informed

    The COVID vaccine will NOT be administered into our foreheads, or our hands.

    Years ago I prayed and the Lord said it would not be by trickery. If all means of accessing money is cut off; unless you receive a mark or implant...and worship anyone or anything other than God Almighty: then you can ask that question again.

    Remember, forehead or hand.

    God would not Lie.

    Satan is the Father of Lies.

  • Chris - In Reply on Revelation 13 - 3 years ago
    I don't believe that to be so. It will be a vaccine like any other that we have had in the past for protection against disease or virus. However, whether this vaccine will do what it is meant to do, given the speed at which it has to be manufactured & the short testing time, will be questionable.

    The mark of the beast, as shown in Revelation chapter 13, will be an identifier, marking out a person as being subject to the Anti-Christ & thus able to continue to live under his authority. By receiving that Mark, a person declares that he desires that the Anti-Christ be his god (even if it is only to survive on the Earth), rather than being a follower resolute in his heart that the Eternal God will only be his. Most people won't have a problem in following & doing what he requires, as they either have no regard for God or being religious, God is unknowable, therefore without a personal relationship with Him in their lives.

    What we should be careful on, are the various ways information is gathered on each one of us now & what we are required to have or do that will foster an easier transition to accepting such a Mark. Most things that come to us now have developed over time & according to man's ability & knowledge. And it's in that transitional time that we are also mentally conditioned to accept other developments, & to accept it as normal. In many cases, that's a good progress, e.g. we have slowly progressed from living in simple thatched roofed dwellings to state-of-the-art buildings with all the mod cons. Whereas, some call it progress when once homosexuality was considered a sin & a crime by govts., but now is openly acceptable. People have to be conditioned so as to accept something wrong or sinful, as being otherwise. And so it will be with the Mark, as its implementation will just be a couple of steps away from what we're already conditioned to accept. That's why our final authority in every aspect of our lives is the Word of God which is true & unchangeable.
  • Margaret Graham - In Reply on Revelation 13 - 3 years ago
    Is the vaccine for Covid 19 the mark of the beast?
  • Xora - In Reply on Revelation 13:15 - 3 years ago
    Ronnie Franklin why do you speak as if you are God.. you call people " my flock, and lost sheep"..you are not God, we are not your sheep.

    Also, ..what is the name of the Holy Spirit to you? You are concerning yourself with a worldly name, and not that which is important. Do you think God cares about more about Jesus's name then our complete surrender to Jesus? Do you think that God would cast aside any person with a pure heart for Jesus because he has not called him Yahshua? Look you call satan 'satin'.. and we all know satin is something nice and comfortable, and not at all fitting to call him.

    The language of the times has changed, but the meaning and personhood of who Jesus is has not, and that is what is important.
  • Chris - In Reply on Revelation 13 - 3 years ago
    All of the Book of the Revelation is the account that the Apostle John received in a vision (in the spirit, Rev 1:10) & to "write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter" (v19). So in Revelation 13:1, it was John who saw himself standing on the sea shore when he was also given the vision of the "beast rise up out of the sea" at that time.
  • Sherry linner on Revelation 13 - 3 years ago
    who was the apostl

    standing on the sand at the shore?
  • Chris - In Reply on Revelation 13:2 - 3 years ago
    Jerry, I had a long response to give you, but it vanished - maybe divinely intended! So, could I direct you to also read Revelation chapter 17, which should help you grasp the meaning of the heads & horns. Please write back if you have further questions.
  • Jerry England on Revelation 13:2 - 3 years ago
    Witch of the heads do the extra three horns go with and do all 7 heads have the same mouth?
  • JLotaj - In Reply on Revelation 13:3 - 3 years ago
    I can understand and relate to your expression especially with reference to the phrase "Now the strength of the spiritual sides of the natives".
