    Maria My understanding of this verse Is Blessed are the humble in your lifestyle because if your not humble

    or meek you will never receive the things of the kingdom of heaven

    Kent, I agree with you in prayer for LaTonya
  • GiGi - In Reply on Matthew 5 - 4 years ago
    Hello Maria,

    I have been taught that the poor in spirit are those who humble themselves before God, acknowledging their own sinful creatureliness and God's perfection in all ways. One who is poor in spirit does not magnify himself of boast about himself, but instead, glorifies God and boast in what Christ as done in one's life.

    Alex N Not to bust your bubble sir but fetal blood comes thru the umbilical cord from the mother but the

    genetic Characteristics is predominately from the Father and Who's Father was Jesus Christ. That's why

    he had sinless blood , the part of Him that was Human was the flesh he had uncontaminated blood.

    Leviticus 17:11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood. Hebrews 2:14 we are partakers of the flesh and blood

    of corruption, he took part the flesh but not the blood contamination no sin. Also of course he had Spirit.

    Just something to think about.

    Alex, I agree that Jesus was supernaturally conceived by the Holy Spirit (the only person who was ever conceived this way). He was fully God and fully human in one person.

    It is true that a baby in utero does obtain nutrients from the mother's bloodstream through the placenta, via the umbilical cord. That is what I meant. Google it to see if I am correct. Also, God does not have blood. He is Spirit, as Jesus said.

    When the God, the Son was incarnated, He then had pure blood in the body of Jesus, untainted by the sinful nature, as you said.

    As to His lineage, Matthew and Luke both trace His lineage back to David and Adam. and they are implying that He is from the lineage of David and ultimately from Adam. So, just as God created the Adam's DNA , He also created the Jesus' DNA, which was made of matter, like Adam's and all humans. We do not know how God did this, or how He connected Jesus' DNA to David and Adam, but I take it on faith that God is able to do this. Jesus ad perfect DNA as well as perfect blood.

    What does the poor in spirit means?
  • Latonya d allen - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Thank you prayer warrior I need all the prayers and whatever you stand in the need for .I pray God answers each and every need in Jesus name Amen.
  • ALEX N - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Plz forgive me But Jesus didn't come thru any mans lineage. Mary was just a vessel, but a woman's blood neva goes to the Child. Even in the natural a fetus makes his own blood. Trru story, As Jesus said i am not of this world, you are of this world but i am not of this world . You are from beneath i am from above . Had jesus been of this world he cd not have been the lamb of God as Gods lamb had be without spot, he cd not carry the stain and the spot of adam thus it had to be a virgin birth...Had Jesus been anything less then God his blood cd not have been the atonement for the sins of the world.

    Some people are more willing to receive the Holy Ghost than others at first. But some of those people are willing to give it up just as ease. I've been saved twice; the first time was ease but the second time was harder for me to receive the Holy Ghost. When it is harder to receive something from God, God wants you to ask for it and continuously pray for it. God wants to know how much you want the Holy Ghost. When God sees that you are not going to give up and go back into sin. God is going to test some people before God gives the Holy Ghost to those. So pray, study the word of God, and seek the face of God. If you are really sincere in living for God than show God you want what he has for you by praying constantly, studding God's word, and seeking God face without ceasing. Don't give up God is only a pray away, I'll be praying for you.

    God Bless

    stay prayed up and ready to go up

    Chris gbu but you need to understand its everybody's old adamic nature that has to go thru the lake of fire.

    which is his baptism of fire , And its simply that lake of fire which is his baptism of the H.G that is gonna make us

    Clean. like you say judgement must begin at the house of God and that judgement is by his word which is the good seed that is gonna initiate a birth of Christ in us .Remember 1 is gonna be taken, thats his good seed and 1 is gonna be sent

    sent to Hell thats the tare Satans seat. Remember 2 men shall be in one bed but the 2 men are really 1 man...As the wheat and the tares make us 2 persons but only the wheat will be taken. Mal. 3 : 2 is Prophetic the 2 nd coming and his

    lake of fire ,every sinner will have there part in the lake of fire..Who shall abide the day of his coming,Who shall stand when he appears 2nd advent. For he shall be as a refiners fire and fullers soap a cleansing fire as his word is also a

    cleaning fire in the last day.....our God is a consuming fire. And that what the 2 nd coming is our God coming to walk with and judge his ppl Everybody...Thats y they call Jesus the 2 nd Adam simply b/c what he did at calvery will stain everybody ALL HIS RAIMENT AS Isaiah said . No exceptions just like the 1st adam stained everybody....The bible cd not refer to Jesus as the 2 nd Adam if what he did at Calvery did not stain everybody all his raiment we are his raiment. I was naked and you clothed me we are ALL HIS RAIMENT. LOVE YA jESUS

    Chris do you not understand that we are ALL ALL bought with a price , WE ARE NOT OUR OWN WE ARE BOUGHT WITH A PRICE . In the end he will simply forgive ALL his debtors . As he teaches us to forgive ALL our debtors . We are simular to the Workers that worked for the whole day but was paid the same as the them that worked only one hour. As Jesus said the kingdom of God is like unto aman who hired workers for his vineyard but some only worked 1 hr. ( those that he

    hired the last day.) But Chris Jesus wd not teach us to forgive US ALL our debtors if he himself didn't forgive all his debtors the last day....Remember Simon and Mary when they had nothin to pay he frankly forgive then both ,The 1 who owed 50 and the 1 who owed 500, he frankly forgave then both. Thus he will forgive all his debtors. If he forgave Paul

    a murderer no doubt he will forgive everybody and anybody. But the question you ask seem to imply we are all our own

    but we are not our own we are all bought with a price.
  • Alex N - 4 years ago
    Gi Gi do you not understand that we have to be bornagain of an incorruptible Seed, Even by the words of God

    as Peter tells us....let me remind you that it was God ALMIGHTY that made that great Promise of multiplication,

    And thats y the sower of the good seed has to sow his precious seed in our hearts that it might initiate a birth of

    Christ in us and that Christ is a lil Child . I.E. he has to know us thus the sower and his seed the words of God.

    Thats y Jesus is saying that which is born of the spirit is SPIRIT AS GOD IS SPIRIT, When God made that great

    he swore by his very self and Jesus tells us that the good seeds are the Children of the Kingdom which is the H.G.

    That Child of PROMISE. And here is the good part in that it is the Promise it is the Kingdom the Multiplication of Christ.

    etc we are gonna get a new inner heart and a new spirit, The very kingdom of God is in his seed as he said his seeds are the words of the Kingdom. Gi Gi ya gotta realize that Christ is gonna be multiplied as the stars of heaven via his

    seeds Thats y they call him the bridegroom. He has a seed to sow in humanity Thank You Jesus, GI Gi we cannot be born AGAIN WITH OUT HIS SEEDS HIS WORDS. as Peter said
  • David - In Reply - 4 years ago
    S. Spencer This is how I endeavor to focus my thinking. Do you want to be miserable look at yourself

    look within. Do you want to be discouraged watch the world or look at others. If you want to maintain

    Spiritual Peace you must look at God and His Word. We need to turn our eyes upon Jesus and look full in

    His wonderful face and the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the Light of His Glory and Grace!

    Philippians 4:8 Just Sharing Some Heart!

    No problem =) Yah bless!
  • Alex N - 4 years ago
    We are not the Children of Promise, its the H.G. that is the Child of PROMISE. We were ALL born by the will of of some man. But we can be a joint heir with the H.G. that Child of PROMISE. If we are bornagain we birth a new innerman and our old man is gonna be destroyed , Its our old man that is the dog that returns to his vomit and the sow that returns to her mud. He is made white at repentence but he falls away . When Jesus said behold i send the Promise of my father upon you Thats baptism of the H.G a spritual pregnancy that will result in a birth of Christ in you the child of PROMISE.

    Thats y he always refers to himself as the SON of MAN MANKINDS fruits unto God, Thats y she brought forth a manchild,Its was the result of Christ seed his Word . Her pregnancy was by Faith as faith is the substance of things hoped for ,the evidence of things not seen the good seed was the word that is spirit and life a baby Christ. iTS WAS HER BABY THAT WAS THE CHILD OF PROMISE. As 12 : 10 says now is come salvation and the kingdom of our God etc.

    Remember Jesus said unless you receive the kingdom as a lil Child etc You will in no wise enter there in. I know I am being repeitious but some things need to be repeated simply the time is at hand.
  • Alex N - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Chris we are to be a light until the Kingdom comes....We should be washing others feet ( their hearts ) Ye are the light of the world etc , But he does speak of a nite season coming when no man can work, That great abomination of desolation standing in the holy places. ( The Churches ) And the day of the lord cannot come till there 1st come a great falling away.

    Chris he does not leave us orphans, He talks with us and walks with us, We are his workmanship , And there is a relationship with him . But when the Book is opened thats when they sang a new song meaning the mediation of the new covenant .

    And thats when he will pour out his spirit on all flesh as Joel said..ALL FLESH THATs EVERYBODY. Thus there will be no more seas of HUMANITY that has NOT been washed in his blood....Just as he applied the curse of Adam to everybody the 1st day. NO EXCEPTIONS The blood of Christ will be poured out on everybody that last day . NO EXCEPTIONS. 4 Times in johns Gospel he Jesus said he wd raise them up the last day . How cd he do that unless it was by his spirit that is poured out on everybody THE LAST DAY WHICH IS THE DAY WE ARE IN NOW. Just 70 yrs ago natural Israel became a nation again . Thus the Israel of God cannot befar behind. Chris I,m gonna answer you just like PAUL ANSWERED SOME OF HIS PPL ......O VAIN MAN WHO ARE YOU TO QUESTION OUR GOD...But 1 thing we know for sure.

    If God applied the curse of Adam to everyman no exceptions then he wd have to apply the blood of Christ to every person that ever lived . Thats y the bible is telling us in Adam we all die but in CHRIST WE WILL ALL LIVE...Chris one thing you do not seem to understand is GOD IS NO RESPECTOR OF PERSONS. He makes his rain and his precious sun shine to fall on everybody. When HE fed the multitutudes the 3 rd day he fed everybody, and did not cull not 1 single person simply b/c God is no respector of persons.
  • MJ Bagwell on Romans 1 - 4 years ago
    Sadly but necessary, my discomfort with same sex relationships. gender identity.& transgender issues, is made crystal clear in Romans 1.

    I'm not supposed to be comfortable with out of order relationships. I have tried to make this work in my mind but the Lord's truth overrides any attempt to do so.

    And I have close family members who have been encouraged to believe love is love is love.

    Society has put on the mantle of deception to perpetuate this wrong thinking.

    Dear all brothers and sisters in the Lord Jesus Christ. A word come too me from 1 John 3:13 Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.

    14 We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

    15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

    16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

    17 But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

    18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.

    19 And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

    20 For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.

    21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.

    22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

    23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.

    24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.

    And remember that ppl who have died is not someone we should pray for anymore. He have meet his judge.

    But in the other hand can we can still pray for his murderer.

    Be blessed in Jesus Name.

    Why is it that some people get the holy ghost and others dont? I called on the name Jesus Jesus Jesus over and over again as i was taught to by the House of God church Keith Dominion and i just dont know if i truly have the Holy Ghost. Im not a smart or intelligent person but i love the Lord. I failed God in a lot of areas. I dont want to end up in hell. Help me to truly know that i have the holy ghost. If i did have him i would already know right. Pray for me and my family! Thank you for your steadfastness in serving the Lord. Terry 786 587 5791.
  • GiGi again - In Reply - 4 years ago
    That is right, Chris.

    Have a good night.
  • GiGi again - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Well, first of all, I was responding to the post by Adam on this topic. I did not initiate the conversation.

    Secondly, I am aware that there are those on the site who listen without responding and I care about what they hear.

    Thirdly, I don't think that talking about matters happening around us is off limits for this site. We should be concerned about how things go in our society and pray for situations that are concerning us, which is what Adam brought up in the first post on this subject.

    Fourthly, I don't preach from a pulpit as I am not in such a position to do so.

    Lastly, yes I would investigate it if it was alleged that a civilian had killed a cop and I was concerned that the civilian may be wrongfully accused.

    If you don't wish to follow what is happening in the news, that is you perogative. If speaking about such matters is inappropriate on this site, then I would hope that the moderators would advise us not to do so.

    I hate the way so many are trying to divide us along racial lines in this country. It is so wrong and unloving to do so.

    My prayer is for God to work in our country to overcome these divisions and have us love our neighbors.

    Even so, we will always need law enforcement to take care of situations where crime is being committed.

    So, I pray for safety for the police officers and for them to work a situation within the guidelines of their training so each person can be treated properly in volatile situations.

    Good night. I wish you a good rest.

    Hello RLW,

    Thanks again for your response. I am only still on Chapter 2 of my bible study of the book of Daniel. The chronology of events outlined has cleared any assumptions about the possibility that Chapter 1 & 2 may be referencing multiple Kings.

    However, the events of the dream (in Chapter 2) was said to have happened in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar (with Daniel already confirmed as one of the wise men) while chapter 1 states that they (Daniel and the others) were presented before the King after three years. Although, I have had more enlightenment by the feedbacks, my primary concern which made me start the conversation has not been addressed. I will be glad if it can be addressed, if not, I will just continue studying and pray.

    Thanks for your help again.

    Best regards,

    Tunji

    In terms of idolotry, how does this apply in today's world and application? Understanding that brands and certain consumer choices can go against this as well? tbh, a Target trip and Starbucks is like a trip to Disney Land, 10/10 will go. I try to do my part for the community and supporting businesses and people who align in my interests, and sometimes big branding just doesn't fit the moral application in life at the time. Thank you as aways for your feedback!

    I'd never heard of the Two Preacher YT channel. Will look at it & see what is being done around the world. Thanks.
  • Chris - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Thank you GiGi. I guess, enough said on this matter, even with the facts you shared & others yet to be considered. Each one can form their opinion on the evidence presented & to know that man will never always get it right; we will always have to live with that uncertainty until the day when all things will come to light & we will then get all the answers, coming directly from the Lord of Truth.
  • S Spencer - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hi Sister GiGi.

    WOW! I hate I ran across this!

    I NEVER followed any of this promoted by the media to divide. Not only Racial but right or wrong.

    Here's the issue I have here.

    We will never know the intent.

    No one is perfect so I have to ask this question when I see a supposed spiritually wise and mature in the faith Christian engage so deeply in something so out of hand like this. Would you preach that from behind the pulpit in front of your mixed congregation and follow it with

    John 7:24.

    2 Timothy 2:4.

    My second question to you would be would you go through all that trouble of investigating if that High, covid, black, drug atic would have killed the cop?

    By what you have said you seem to be more influenced by the public pushing for a guilty plea for a cop killing a black man than than for righteous Judgement.

    I honestly have never said or followed any of this on this case or any other like this. Because of the carnaliy exposed by it.

    once before you said you was concerned who might be on this site and here certain things. Is that concern for everyone if you know what I mean.

    God bless and

    Good night.
  • Chris - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Yes, brother S. Spencer, I too try to avoid referring to such matters as far as possible, especially on this type of Site. But, it does serve to show the fallibility of man, even the well-informed & skilled amongst the judiciary, who may view such cases in different ways, inconsistent to the Letter of the Law. And that behoves upon us all, whether falsely incarcerated on some matter of the law or for even being a follower of Christ, that we can fully entrust into the Lord's Hands the final outcome here on Earth & that righteous judgement will be meted out in Glory. Jesus declared this Truth in Luke 12:4,5.
  • S Spencer - In Reply - 4 years ago
    I think you're spot on Brother Chris.

    I believe worldly situations like this brings clarity to what's in the scripture. The Lord says it will be days like this.

    It is sad the focus was never on a cop and perpetrator. It immediately became a raciial argument It was horrible to see the Church was even divided by this!

    As you said We have a righteous judge in heaven who judges the intent and deep thoughts of man.

    Intent thoughts is not visible. So we judge by eye witness. Whether this guy was high on drugs or not apparently he was coherent enough to know what he was saying when he said he can't breathe.

    I've never followed on this case or any of the others because it was to racially partial.

    I'm disappointed to see this come up here!

    I'm sorry but I had to respond.

    It reminds me of verse John 7:24.
