Hello sister Sacha, Thank you for your kindness. I am thinking of 2 Timothy 1:3

right now.

:)

I'm weird I guess. I taught my 12 yr old son life skills 101 until he was 16. He learned full knowledge on how to run a household, cook real meals, yard work, maintenance on a car.

How to shop for a household, stretch your grocery money. How to never have to wear green underwear (laundry); sew on a button. He balanced my checkbook for me to learn budgeting, paid the bills and saw what was leftover :(

I let him work for roofing companies. Cleaning restaurants, grandpa's gas station. I told him it was to teach him the value of an education because low paying jobs are hard, sweaty and exhausting.

When he turned 21, he purchased his first house (a new one). He's 42 now; has 13+ houses he rents out and maintains. Works full time at a 9/5 job, has a family. He's amazing! He's teaching his son the same things.

You have to make a personal commitment to give a kid the best start in life. Schools and even Churches don't teach that. Parents have to do it.

He got some traffic tickets at 16. He knew I couldn't pay for them. I took him to the County Clerks office so he could pay them out. He learned to obey traffic laws, young.

I love being a parent. If we'd just obey God and not skip over the hard parts that are time consuming; we won't have to launch the kid. They'll launch themselves.

Let them work some summer jobs. Swimming pools don't teach them anything. Driving a car is big time maintenance and expense; they must learn. Cut off the fun money and they'll want to get a job. If they demand cool clothes and shoes; let them get part-time jobs.

You have to cease to be their source. They have to see their source is THEMSELVES.

My kid got to keep all his money and budget it. He was broke some months. He got the hang of it pretty quick. He got better paying jobs as he could.

I told him that no one can take your home or car, as long as you have a job to secure your freedom.

He always had a job

Mishael

Actually if you read revelation chapter 16 verse 15, it says that he comes like a their, and it it right after the 6th vial and just before the 7th vial and the Great wrath. I don't believe it is a pre-trib rapture at all.

Colossians Chapter 3

9 Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;

10 And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:

11 Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.

12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

You are not a Christian because you are or, are not circumcised. You are because you have received Christ. This was an issue in the first century Church; but it should not be an issue now in this day and age.

To read more verses on just circumcision, go to the SEARCH box on the link page,

Type in circumcision and hit the arrow.

The search engine will fetch ALL scriptures about it. That's a lot of reading my friend.

It was initiated by God to separate Jews from Non-Jews in the Old Testament. In the New Testament the circumcising of the Heart was introduced. It's a heart decision to become a Christian.

Brother Brent, may CHRIST IN US grace us with His wisdom and His understanding

From Genesis to Malachi we see all the prophecies of the coming CHRIST; the law and prophets are the two witnesses to this event. Daniel 12:11-12 foretell of the forty two month ministry of Christ; forty five days latter Pentecost.

Revelation 10 is telling John that when he leaves his body of flesh and is become the LIKENESS OF CHRIST he will again prophecy to the nation having BECOME a Priest to HIS GOD.

Did God make angels or other "critters" before the first days 1-6? Where is that explained?

Matthew 2:1

1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

The Bible is the inspired Word of God, to all people.

To rightly understand it and be able to live it daily: we must be born again, as Jesus tells Nicodemas in the Book of John, Chapter 3.

This website has a link page. Below the link you used to come in here, is a link named: Become a Christian. It tells you how to become a Believer in Jesus. To understand all spiritual truths.

Psalms 34:18 - The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.

Psalms 147:3 - He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

1 Peter 5:7 - Casting all your care upon him; for he cares for you.

Isaiah 61:1 - The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives (of sin), and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

John 14:27 - Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Proverbs 3:5-6 - Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto your own understanding.

Psalms 73:26 - My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.

Psalms 51:17 - The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

2 Corinthians 12:9 - 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.

Comment: God knows of our pain. Lay your sorrows at his feet. Give yours to Him (speak it), and receive His comfort, joy and healing. Never pick up what you've given to God. It's His now.

The Scriptures about the Godhead. Sometimes called "Let Us..." in some passages. These scriptures are evidence of all 3 persons of the Godhead speaking to each other.

"For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made (us), even his eternal power and GODHEAD so that they are without excuse:"

Father Purposes

Jesus speaks the Word

The Holy Spirit (action) accomplishes it

If you are born again, the Holy Spirit seals you; He is the Spirit of Jesus Christ. He indwells you. Comforts you. He is your Teacher. He anoints you to understand scripture. He is your Helper. He is gentle, and kind. He reveals Jesus to you.

Amen means, So Be It.

What was written in the Bible, the writer was saying: as it is written...so be it.

If you truly want all of your questions answered about God, this is step one. Trust. The Holy Spirit is your Teacher, He comforts you, calms you and will guide you each and every day. There are voices that frighten you; and then there is the Holy Spirits presence that will calm you AND cause you to understand what the Bible is saying.

As you grow in Trust, sins that hurt your mind and heart; just confess them. Own your participation and give it all to the Holy Spirit. He will take all that pain and darkness away forever. Even if it's about someone who hurt you deeply. Give those memories to the Person who can wipe it clean. Some memories are harder than others.

Get you a red letter Edition of a King James Bible and begin reading in the New Testament; work your way to the back. Books of Proverbs and Psalms, offer Wisdom and Comfort. You are now, Gods beloved child. You are loved unconditionally. Lean into Him for your strength. All of heaven rejoices in your new beginning. Learn what Jesus is like. Come back here with your questions as you learn. Listen to some Greg Laurie videos on YouTube. He has a kind heart.

Pray this prayer to get started.

Dear God, I believe in you and that your Son, Jesus Christ, is Lord. I believe in His sacrifice for my sins and His resurrection from the dead. I repent and ask forgiveness for my sins and I'm deciding now to follow you. Please, come into my life THROUGH THE GIFT of your Holy Spirit. It is in the Lord Jesus' name that I ask and receive, Amen."

The Bible says doing these things with sincerity means you are a Christian (Christ follower) and will have eternal life in heaven.

"These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God." 1 John 5:13

Use caution in trusting your feelings, as feelings change. Stand on God's promises- they never change.

Ok, maybe you think it's ok to do 'things' for people in ministry, but don't give them money. Money is no different than the things. Just a temporary I owe you note to make it more convenient to convert into things.

There's a false idea that people feel entitled to stuff for free and I'm against that. Because basically they're demanding others to serve them and serve their needs for free and that's wrong, because its a form of oppression and slavery.

The reality is nothing is a free. If you want to go to church for free and not pay anything, that's great, but as far as I'm concerned you're not doing your part, because churches aren't free- land costs money, building, taxes, insurance, water, sewer, safety measures. It's very expensive. So is renting people- people shouldn't serve you for free if full time unless they insist. I think it's wrong to demand such things of others. Church shouldn't be commercialized like a market or a bank- that's what Jesus turned tables for. But Jesus didn't say to cheat and not pay the landlord rent, or to not pay taxes, or to only have a low % pay for everything and that all the rest act as leeches and don't contribute. You live in a reality where food, shelter, clothing costs money and church and full time staff costs too and it should. It all makes sense when one day people act entitled to your labor and ask the same of you in return for free. God bless.

Brother Mitchell, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

When you came to the understanding that WE CAN DO NOTHING; but, Christ does all things for us. You will BE SET FREE.

You want have to achieve the hope set before you, Christ started it. he will complete it. In fact; Christ sees it as already COMPLETE. This is what is meant by coming INTO HIS REST; the works were completed before the foundations of the world were laid.

Ephesians 1:4

Hebrews 4:3

John 15:5

Psalms 92:4-6

YOU ARE DEAD (on your cross); He is alive on HIS THRONE (in you) living HIS life FOR YOU.

YOU have become ONE WITH CHRIST.

Luke 14:27

Matthew 10:38

Luke 9:23

We are THE POT he is THE POTTER.

if there were 4 people were did cain wife come from

Ana, may CHRIST IN US (Spirit of God) grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

Genesis 1:2 ... And the (Holy) Spirit of God moved upon the waters.

Genesis 1:1 In the BEGINNING God (the Spirit) created heaven and earth.

The SPIRIT (of GOD) is the only ONE (LIFE) that is eternal; no beginning and no end.

We are GIFTED (GRACED) through the WORKS of CHRIST (Spirit of GOD) with this same GIFT (no end to life); GIFTED to those that believe in the THE WORKS OF GOD (SPIRIT).

Psalms 102:18 This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which SHALL BE CREATED (in the likeness of Christ; LIFE and BODY)(FULLNESS of GOD) shall praise the LORD.

I love that he never leaves us

should parents continue to give money to children that will not work especially since they are now adults?

Will god every show himself to the broken hearted?

Amen. John is one of the two witnesses.

This story is one that made me realize Gods people weren't so holy. They lie and then slaughter an entire city of men, then enslave women and children. And even Jacob is disgusted by it. They are not punished for their actions, and I see comments where people justify them killing. It never says he raped Dinah, only defiled, which she would be defiled period by having premarital sex in their eyes or by sleeping with an uncircumcised man. And none of us are supposed to kill. Ever.

Hi Dere

Blessed Assurance, Jesus is mine! o what a foretaste of glory divine! heir of salvation, purchase of god, born of his spirit, washed in his blood

Chorus

This is my story, this is my song, praising my saviour all day long this is my story, this is my song, praising my savior all day long

Perfect submission, perfect delight, visions of rapture, perfect delight,

Visions of rapture now bur

This Verse keeps me hoping for what I want ti achieve. I like it.

My father, being between life and death in the ICU, in what way should I word my prayer(s) aside that which I have already prayed for his recovery as well as his soul?

this a really good bible i use it for zoom for Sunday school

Yes!! There was one time when I was just talking with Jesus, I asked Him to hold my hand. So I hold out my hand and asked Him to heal me of sickness and to wash my sins away, and I'm not lying when I tell you that after that I suddenly cried heavily for no reason. It was as if tears came out of me out of the blue. For me it was Jesus's hand who held me! Although I didn't feel Him physically, I definitely felt Him emotionally. It was a great experience for me!

pray for me please

Romans 9:15 For he saith to Moses, (I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy), and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

Revelation 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;

Luke 18:2-5 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: 3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. 4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; 5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

why does say ,the circumsion by faith but the uncirmsiom through faith?

Brother Mishael,

Fat on the Word, I like that! Amen! Thanks for your prayer and sharing the blessings....

John 6:35

"And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst."

Have a blessed week Brother!
