A closer look at the words in the verse is required to answer that informatively.
I am looking at verse 8 of chapter 38. KJV
Strong's h6485
- Lexical:
- Transliteration: paqad
- Part of Speech: Verb
- Phonetic Spelling: paw-kad'
- Definition: to attend to, visit, muster, appoint.
- Origin: A primitive root; to visit (with friendly or hostile intent); by analogy, to oversee, muster, charge, care for, miss, deposit, etc..
- Usage: appoint, X at all, avenge, bestow, (appoint to have the, give a) charge, commit, count, deliver to keep, be empty, enjoin, go see, hurt, do judgment, lack, lay up, look, make, X by any means, miss, number, officer, (make) overseer, have (the) oversight, punish, reckon, (call to) remember(-brance), set (over), sum, X surely, visit, want.
We see that the people are not just visited, they are Mustered.
Those 'mustered' are Those Rescued from the sword or death:
"of those brought back" =
Strong's h7725
- Lexical:
- Transliteration: shub
- Part of Speech: Verb
- Phonetic Spelling: shoob
- Definition: to turn back, return.
- Origin: A primitive root; to turn back (hence, away) transitively or intransitively, literally or figuratively (not necessarily with the idea of return to the starting point); generally to retreat; often adverbial, again.
This is like the Red Sea rescue but for the Bride And the Body of Christ. The members of the Body are a mystery in scripture here until it was revealed ( apocalypse) to the First Century Church that basically all three branches of Noah were eligible for holy spirit upgrade for their earthen jugs, for Sonship, not just to be Servants. The mystery of unexplained sequences and actors in the old testament can be understood with the key to interpretation: The Word of God who is the living Christ, magnified above all of God's marvelous works ( Psalm 138:2b).
Mysteries still exist until the next Apocalypse or unveiling.
God bless you.
Yes I believe the little children and some mentally challenged people will go to heaven.
Here's why, There seems to be an age of accountability.
Deuteronomy 1:39. Here Joshua reminds Israel of the decree given by God in Numbers 14:21-33. Here the age of accountability is 20 years old.
James 4:17. I don't see a one year old knowing he's in need of a savior.
Romans 14:12. This is something a child can't do.
King David seems to think at least babies go to heaven in 2 Samuel 12:19-23.
Today this may have more to do with maturity which differs from one kid to another.
Perhaps at an early age one may know good from evil but lack full knowledge and understanding of the gospel, and need of a savior. I hope this helps.
God bless.
Rosh is correctly translated as Hebrew for head, it is not a geographical place and Homeland of Gog or Magog, descendants of Japheth's Branch.
Neither is it identified as Ham's Branch and definitely not Shem's genetic Branch which is THE (genetic) BRANCH ( to carry Adam's genetics because the wicked like Cain and Esau are NO deal because their jugs were skankified with unholy sonship from lucifer).
Rosh means head. No matter how much the Franks and Merovingian's defined themselves as The Branch of a Davidic King to come, Rosh is Not Russia, the object of modern literate templar dominionists.
Rosh is Russia according to dogma in the old world and 'Western' parroted the dogma to murder the Tsar and all immediate family. They were not Merovingian royal poeseurs but Russia is a repository of First Century Christian and Hebrew Diaspora. To kill those is to attack the children of promise there, to remove them from the gene pool, to insure those who did have an inheritance were rubbed out.
The looming war in Europe is to do one thing: to defeat the promises of God by Mutual Assured Destruction, to destroy the Living Remnant Diaspora there who are part of the Levites who will teach God's Word to the Resurrection of the just so that they too can 'brand-up' with holy spirit.
Gog and Magod are a confederacy of nations, not isolated Russia. Are genetically and spiritually Japheth's crooked line that Masons and Freemasons worship. Russia is not in that definition, Russia is not north of JRS or the mountains there
about. The Bride is in Diaspora to this day. It is the Body who fly to their windows like doves to rescue them, to take them where he calls.
Then off we go to the Throne for 3 earth days. Then we return to be On earth with the King. With the the Bride, united at last under his dominion ( Dan 7:14) so we can be rewarded and We are then as before, the Chariot and the Horsemen of Israel.
The Deliverer comes in like a fast raptor to pick up/ rescue.

In these passages; we see the principles also in the New Testament; that the "meek shall inherit the earth." ( Matthew 5:5). We must remember that God also promises that according to Malachi 4:3 His people will "tread down the ashes of the wicked." His saints also will rule with a rod of iron according to Rev. 2:26-27; and other verses in Psalms (which I can't find at present).
There is a risk of going to either extreme as will all other scriptures; where we become either too "lovey dovey" in approaching God and only quoting verses that sound nice; or of course always preaching about judgment. The truth is; God is both a God of vengeance and a God of mercy and grace. Yes; He will tread the winepress alone ( Isaiah 63:3); but there are special places of authority for His children in the Kingdom of God "ruling over cities" for instance in Luke 19. David himself apparently will co-reign on earth with Christ someday and us as kings and priests ( Jeremiah 30:9; Rev. 1:6 and others). Then; our real enemy; Satan will be confined; and eventually death itself will be abolished according to 1 Corinthians 15:55 and also mentioned in Hosea.

Believers have hearts to thank God for life and praise Him for all His goodness, and we pray for His help and guidance daily.
12 So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.
13 He had also seven sons and three daughters.
14 And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.
15 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
16 After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, even four generations.
17 So Job died, being old and full of days.
Moving on to verse 8; the basic hydrologic cycle with clouds filled with immense amounts of water vapor are shown not to burst; which reinforces God's promises in Genesis never to flood the earth again worldwide. Keep in mind Job was likely a book by a character around not too long after this event.
Verse 9 reminds us somewhat of later representations of the heavenly throne. Verse 10 shows how the earth and sea for now are separated; but as Rev 22 also indicates; there will be no more sea after the Millennium and when the earth and its works are burned up; as described in 2 Peter 3:10. Verse 10 also may show how; for instance there is a distinct boundary between oceans; such as is with the Atlantic and Pacific.
Verse 11 is a bit vague; perhaps related to Seal Judgments? Verse 12 could refer to the Exodus event. Verse 13 may be representative of a snake in general or Satan himself; in the end all things are created beings but the Triune God Himself.
For when we meet the Lord in our life, all things become new, the old is gone. John 3:7 John 3:21 And remember it is the Lord who must draw us. John 6:44 We ourselves do not know anything. It is good that we can lean on Jesus, we must all do that.
Stay blessed in Jesus name, love u all in Christ.
I think the covid ordeal has caused many people to find themselves more isolated than they have ever been before. Some people, like my 88 year old mom, already live out a fairly isolated life and so the covid ordeal has not affected them too much. But others, especially those who are outgoing by nature, may find this period of isolation unbearable. Some who, prior to covid, entertained and fellowshipped with others regularly, and then have had to cease most of this. Each person has needed to adjust in their own situation.
But you are so right, we are never completely alone as a believer, because God is within us! You cannot get any closer than that!
Still, the absence of face to face contact with other people can lead some into depression and loneliness. Perhaps those who know people who are vulnerable to this should make extra efforts to call these people more often and have a real conversation on the phone, not just texting, or do facetime.
For me, an outgoing person who now am home all day, I am learning to be satisfied with being by myself and my husband, who works from home in his office during the day. I am learning to pray more, study God's word more, and research topics that come up on this forum. Participating on this forum has been helpful to me. I am learning to rest in the Lord more.
God bless.
Adding to GiGi's comment below.
Jesus as a Son of Man (which simply means a man) had all the right to represant humanity on the cross. As a Son of God (which simply means God) He had no sins so death had no right to keep Him since death is the wage of sin (God's penalty to people for doing sins). That is why Father God ressurected Him. If Jesus hadn't been ressurected (which means that He had sins Himself) we couldn't have been saved.

Read Matthew19:13-15 and Matthew 18:3-5.
So according to what i understand from these verses yes they go to Heaven.
God bless you.

Many people may be physically alone all day (including myself), but don't necessarily feel alone, so this seems subject to our own interpretation. Since God is with us are we ever truly alone? When we have online communities like this and other social media are we truly alone? I personally think its more difficult to be alone in a crowd than physically alone, but everyone views this differently.
I also believe God made us with different gifts and different roles- some are behind the scenes and some are more in the spotlight. The joy of serving God I think is about being obedient and not seeking human validation or appreciation. Jesus healed people in the spotlight and still hardly received appreciation. Of the 10 lepers He healed only 1 said thank you. 10%, which seems about average from my own volunteer experience. I drifted off topic a bit but in general I think God totally understands our circumstances and we can make the most of it to serve Him, according to the gifts He has blessed us with. We can also frame our circumstances positively as 'tests', as I think such challenges can be used to build our character- a more positive frame than just blaming God.
Something I heard in a movie last night thought was good:
"Why would a loving God allow these tragedies to happen?
Does the Lord want us to suffer?"
"I asked for strength, and God gave my difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for wisdom, and God gave me problems to solve.
I asked for courage, and God gave me dangers to overcome.
I asked for love, and God gave me troubled people to help.
My prayers were answered."
God bless.
.....Unless the lord of the sabbath had left us a seed we wd have been made like unto Sodom and Gomarrah...But the lord has left us a seed which are the words of the book in the right hand of the Father....the Words of life... Romans 9 : 29 KJV
...God so loved the world that he gave his only son...The living Word are the seeds of God...And to whom the word came it made them Gods...Meaning we are gonna be married to God...A marriage is when 2 are made 1...As a young man marries a virgin so shall thy God marry thee as the Bridegroom rejoices over the Bride so shall thy God rejoice over thee.... Isaiah 62 : 5...We are gonna be married to God ...ty Jesus
People commonly like to say that everyone goes to heaven. But the Bible indicates something different to me. It says all will face judgment. It also says when Jesus returns the dead will rise and all will be caught up in the air- which I believe happens before judgment. Given the order the Bible says, I believe after death we will be in a state of rest awaiting Jesus's return. The Bible even describes this as "sleep" in a few verses.
Regarding children, we have verses saying to be childlike, but verses also say all have a sinful nature and all have sinned. We all will die, we just don't know the timing and God is a fair judge. He will also judge those who assume they were 'saved' but lived a life following the world rather than Jesus.
Philippians 2:15
I found a page of verses about that:

1 Corinthians 6:9-10
So, the short answer is no, alcoholics nor drunkards don't deserve to enter the kingdom of heaven, nor does anyone else without Jesus, for all have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God and sin is detestable to God: Romans 3:23.
But fortunately, Jesus died to pay for our sins and we have an opportunity to accept His gift and follow Him, which involves doing away with our old sinful ways and becoming new.
How to follow Jesus:

To me the question is not 'can I continue doing this sin I love and still go to heaven' but 'how can I follow Jesus and put my full faith and trust and life in Jesus'? God bless.
Genesis 2:7
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a LIVING SOUL.
Ecclesiastes 3:18-21
I said in my heart with regard to the children of man that God is testing them that they may see that they themselves are but beasts. For what happens to the children of man and what happens to the beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other. They all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts, for all is vanity. All go to one place. All are from the dust, and to dust all return. Who knows whether the spirit of man goes upward and the spirit of the beast goes down into the earth?
Job 12:7-10 But ask the beasts, and they will teach you; the birds of the heavens, and they will tell you; or the bushes of the earth, and they will teach you; and the fish of the sea will declare to you. Who among all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this?
***In His hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of ALL mankind.***
Ecclesiastes 12:7
And the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.
Everything returns to dust upon death. The spirits return to God. (Immediately)
They were talking of the Spirit of Elijah.
John was mortal. He was first called: one crying in the wilderness (a prophesy). Put that in the Search Box.

DEATH SENTENCE. It opens a door for the demons.
