We are one in Christ. Judgement is for those that reject our Jesus. Righteousness shall be accounted to those that cry ABBA father. to those that are converted. Glory to God in the highest. There is no God Like Jehovah

All of us was trapped in sin at some point in our lives and no matter what believe, trust, and lean on God. Even when you want to say why am I going through this and you think God has forsaken you just remember God has a plan for EVERYONE on this earth.

The wise are open to knowledge and the ignorant despise correction

ALL things are possible with Jesus Christ!!!

Does the Bible say how many years man will be on earth? i thought I saw at one time where it said 2000 years.

"To think of oneself more highly" speaks of a person who believes he has the gifts & qualities that exceed those seen in others. Narcissism is an extreme form of self-aggrandizement or self-elevation & is diametrically opposed to what was in Jesus Christ & what the Holy Spirit produces in a child of God.

I believe Mary being Jesus mother and she was Holy at the time of the union with the Holy Spirit or It never would have taken place . So Jesus was a perfect union of God and flesh .

With God all things are possible . Who really understands it ? God . But we know Jesus is flesh and of God . Not one or the other but both .

Dear Victoria

Read Acts chapter 10 tells how Peter went to Cornelius, you can go right to verse 45 and the Jews were astonished that the gentiles received the Holy Spirit. Never doubt Jesus love for all who call on him.

You might want to consider that the majority of the vision has been completed during the time of the people to whom it was written ie. the seven churches of Asia.

what the meaning word (stablish )In verse 17?

The candlesticks are the seven churches named in vs. 11

I fully agree that this war has been going on for millenniums and that the animosity comes from the division between Esau and Jacob. However, I beg to differ in the case of Ishmael. Hagar was not a Palestinian. She was an Egyptian, probably acquired during Abraham and Sarahs' journey into that country previously. Also if you will check history, there was no such place as 'Palestine' at that time in history. Current day 'Palestine' was a part of Canaan and did not exist until modern day. Oh, Rome, after destroying the Holy City, named the area Capitolinia Phalistinia after the Philistine enemies of the Israelites. Ishmael had twelve sons who became Princes/Sheiks/Priests in what now is known as Persia/Iran. The present population of this area does not claim to be Arab. However, they are Muslim in religion. Thus enemies of modern Israel/Jewry.

the entity in the midst of the candlesticks is a metaphorical rendering of the glory, power and magnificence of Christ.

This is a vision showing the Power and Glory of Christ metaphorically. Remember, this is the 'revealing' of Jesus Christ to the churches of Asia.

It is my understanding that John was being told to write down the vision and send it to the churches that existed at that time as a "Revelation" of Jesus Christ. A revealing of him just as he had revealed his Father while he was among them.

In Acts 2:38 was that for the Jews only or for both Jews and Gentiles? and if for both can I get scripture to back it up, I believe it was for all both Jews and Gentiles, but someone told me that we have to separate Israel and the church

what are you asking about - is this real?

If you are referring to the 7 churches; yes they were real assemblies of people during the time of what is referred to as the "Early Church"

That's correct if Mary's 'contribution' to the birth of Jesus was simply to provide the means for a human baby to form & be ushered into the World. If we think that anything from Mary (i.e. her ovum) was contributed to develop the babe, then I believe that would be false. Why? Then Jesus would have been born with a sin nature as we are & we know that He never had one. Even under temptation ( Matthew 4:1-11), it was Satan's desire to cause Jesus to sin thereby causing the sin nature to be imputed, & that Jesus would become like us, sinners. When we're tempted to sin, we give in easily because Satan's appeal is already to a fertile ground of sin - but this was not the case with Jesus. The Divine Seed became human only because of the human 'mechanism' employed to bring him into the World. Or else, God could have just made Jesus as He did with Adam & Eve - but that wouldn't work as the prophecies of Jesus' coming still need to be performed.

The seven churches of Asia were seven churches planted by Paul during his journeys among the Gentiles.

You're spot on. It's in Matthew 16:1-3.

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.

Is there a real place called hell where the unbelievers go?

What does it mean to think high of oneself.?

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!!

Luke ch 16 . 19-31

You may have believed, but many did not , such as the Pharisees, they actually hated him for it because it challenged their position as Gods ruling class .

2nd I recall the story of the rich man in hell , said let someone go and tell my relatives about this place , the response was if they will not believe the word of God neither will

Believe someone raised from the dead . The story is in the gospel of the NT can't recall where it is now .

Thank you so much for helping me understand my question

How do Angels and demons battle?

Hi David, the Bible doesn't say anywhere that all people go to heaven immediately when they die. The one verse you posted doesn't say that, nor does the chapter say that. The Bible does say that people will sleep after they die and will await judgment day, however, and that is consistent with all the other verses in the Bible. Did you see the previous verses I posted that says that? Then people will go to heaven if they genuinely followed Jesus and followed the narrow path. It says wide is the gate that leads to destruction and hell, so most people will go there, including Christians who assume they're saved, but they're actually following the world (satan) instead of Jesus. God bless.
