  • Leo Emmanuel Lochard on 1 Kings 3 - 2 years ago
    1 KINGS 3:16-28 The wisdom of Solomon in deciding who is the real mother of the child clearly proves that there is no such thing as "a gray area" or that "truth is relative." When mortal Humans don't know - such as the case of King Solomon who did not know who the real mother was and who the thief was - they say, "well, probability says 50/50;" or "this is a gray area, there is no right or wrong answer." BUT, in scientific fact and logical reasoning, there is an absolute pre-determined truth regarding the situation at hand: THERE is a real true factual mother of the child, but, UNKNOWN AT THE TIME OF DECISION. That's the crux of the matter with mortal Humans who have limited knowledge, imperfect reasoning capacity, sinful fleshly nature, intrinsic lack of wisdom; and who often, to their detriment for not thinking thoroughly about a direct corresponding true solution to the factual problem, rush to judgment, either from ignorance or panic, to make rash vital life-and-death deicisions based upon FALSE assumptions, preconceived biases, individual preferences, or prejudicial personal worldview, perspective, faith, belief or doctrine. "It's a gray area" because THEY don't know the actual genuine corresponding true answer to the factual problem before them; but, once discovered, the factual truth was NOT gray, but, very clear, succinct, firm, absolute, and already incontrovertible. But, KING SOLOMON, did NOT err that way! For, just because the genuine answer to the factual problem at hand, is yet, FROM THE START, unknown by mortal Humans, does not make the answer "a gray area" with no right or wrong solution. The genuine truthful factual solution MUST BE FOUND by the exercise of wisdom and good judgment, as KING SOLOMON proved in DISCERNING THE RIGHT WAY to extract the factual truth from the situation. Solomon did NOT succumb to "this is a gray area;" "chance accident probability rules here;" nor any other godless secular nonsense! His method worked perfectly well! ***

    Isaiah 14:29 For out of the serpent's (Satan) root shall come forth a cockatrice, and HIS FRUIT shall be a flying fiery serpent.

    Isaiah 30:6 .....from whence come the young and old lion, the viper, and the flying fiery serpent .....

    Isaiah 11:8 AND THE SUCKLING CHILD shall play on the hole of the asp, and the WEANED CHILD shall put his hand on the cockatrice's den.

    Thanks Gigi.

    It's hard to whisper on a site.

    I've tried it on another occasion and everyone on the site got a whiff of it. I might as well speak boldly, respectfully and truthfully, to the best of my ability.

    The problem is the truth is not always taken well if you have not the same Spirit but if you do it will eventually become profitable.

    Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.

    Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning. Proverbs 9:8-9.

    God bless.

    Job 1:12 And the Lord said unto SATAN, Behold, all that he hath is in thine power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So SATAN went forth from THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD.

    Isaiah 63:9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the ANGEL OF HIS PRESENCE SAVED THEM: in his love and his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.

    1 Corinthians 5:5 To deliver such a one UNTO SATAN for the DESTRUCTION OF THE FLESH, that the SPIRIT MAY BE SAVED in the day of the LORD JESUS.

    1 Timothy 1:20 Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alesander, whom I have delivered unto SATAN, that they MAY LEARN not to blaspheme.

    Hi Brother Chris.

    Yes the intent was to be private, and then if need be exposed.

    Not just the doctrine but also who or what's presenting it as long as pointing it out is part of what we do.

    As you said, "The apostles had to continually correct wrong teaching given, and when they knew particular ones in error, even name them.

    Blessings always big Brother.

    Spencer Gbu but you are in false doctrine...Simply b/c you fail to believe in the New Covenant that Jesus gave us at Calvary in his Blood...Remember the blood that New Covenant...If i be lifted up ( his blood ) I will draw ALL men unto me....And his father backs it up saying After thoses (2 Days 2 k yrs.) I will make a New Covenant NOT according to the Covenant that i made with their fathers...I WILL KNOW THEM ALL FROM THE LEAST TO THE GREATEST...And their sins and iniquities will i remember no more...This New Covenant is all inclusive...Thats y Jesus is saying if i be lifted up i will draw ALL men unto me...And Jeremiah 30:6 He saw ALL MEN in travail and birth pains...Everybody is gona be bornagain of that incorruptible seed the contents of the book that Jesus wrote with his own blood...Thats y Joel said God was gonna pour out of his Spirit on ALL FLESH..IN 2:28...Your sons and daughter are gonna prophecy don't you see he wants the whole family...Everybody....What kind of a God wd save half a family...When Jesus fed the multitudes he fed everybody....he didn't cull not 1 person...He makes his rain and his son/sun to shine on everybody...And they shall ALL be taught of God...All...In Adam we all die but in CHRIST we will ALL live..ty Jesus

    Here is the kicker..We will all die according to our old adamic nature which is in rank with satan, mans carnal mind is the very enemy of God...But we will all live according to His blood...I will Draw ALL men unto me..That N.C

    The curse of Adam was applied to every man that every lived no exceptions...Thus the blessing and the blood of Christ Jesus has to be applied to everyman,....When they saw him on the Mount ALL of his raiment was white as snow...There is no fuller on earth that can whiten us sinners like his blood...And we are his raiment simply b/c he says i was naked in need of raiment and you clothe me ...And Isaiah said he wd stain ALL of his raiment...With his blood God so loved the world that he gave his only son.

    Sin and the multifaceted aspects vs. the Spirit filled life

    Surely; our sins will find us out ( Numbers 32:23). As will all things we say in the closet will be spoken on the rooftops ( Luke 12:3). Even Paul struggled as he said that he continued to do things that he hates ( Romans 7:15).

    As long as we exist in these mortal fallable bodies our capacity for sin remains. That will; of course be done away with when the "perishable puts on the imperishable" ( 1 Cor. 15:53-57). As for now; we must remain "proactive" in order to catch things at the pass before they affect our minds; and then take a foothold on our souls.

    The imaginations of men and the mind is where Satan takes a foothold. Romans 12:2 tells us to be thus "transformed by the renewing of our minds."

    To understand sin we must see the root of the problem that is; our sin "nature". Such a term isn't specifically used in scripture; but we see how the "INTENT of the thoughts of their hearts were only evil continually." ( Gen. 6:5). I highlighted the word intent to show that there is a deliberate desire to sin; once men are totally unrestrained and we see this reflected in society today. Such behaviors also result in what happens in Romans 1:32 where sins of others are celebrated; as it were. Such is evident in many movements and demonstrations today.

    There are specific ways in which sins have a stronghold; these include repeated patterns and established habits; family upbringing; demonic influence as to enhanced appeal of sensual and other experiences (or "highs") whether drug induced or not; music; support from friends; and other individual circumstances. The difference; of course between a true Christian and the rest of the world is that now we have the choice to pursue His righteousness and live in grace as the Holy Spirit sanctifies us. This allows us to be "treasure in earthen vessels" ( 2 Cor. 4:7) living out our days in fear (see 1 Peter 1:17).

    More on walking in faith later.
  • Rugged Christian - In Reply on Ecclesiastes 9 - 2 years ago
    First, it is not the denial of life after death; just simply the observation that death is the end of life as we know it. Only the living things experience the things of life.
  • Free - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Thx a lot GiGi, its a lot of emty spice in the house. But it becomes everyday things and deal with eventually. Life is so fragile when one thinks about it, with all that it entails. More often I see that the time we have on earth must be about and care more about other people than my own well-being. Because there's plenty of that. Smilyes. Needs, troubled thoughts, sleepless nights of excessive coffee drinking and so we go on. But we are here right now, in this day and age. And in that time we might be able to change other lives. Even if we ourselves sit glued to the wall and watch our lives, perish in the struggles of daily life.

    We have so much and learn from the Lord. Luke 24 the entire chapter.

    Thanks for all the great care in this website. Love u all in Jesus Christ holy name.
  • Jac88 - 2 years ago
    This is ridiculous, I know but, I am curious about the date of the birth of our Father God, King of all Kings, The Alpha and the Omega. Christmas day obviously would have to correct. I was just curious because I heard it might be in September.
  • GiGi - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Ahh, now, as I re-read the post from Ruby, then I see that it is scripted so much like Earl's, who's doctrine lacks veracity, as you say. But I do not see how Sammi picked up on that. But I don't think you were questioning Sammi's identity on here, but Ruby's.

    Went completely over my head, that's for sure. Anyway, I do hope that Sammi will be ok and continue on with all of us here. His thoughts are appreciated, as yours are.
  • John on Song of Solomon 1 - 2 years ago
    I'd like to know about all of Solomons, the meaning behind it and the message that is supposed to be shown. I'd also like to know more about it. I'm not new at this but I am new when it comes to reading my Bible. There's so much I want to learn in order to get a better understanding and working twords a better relationship with God.
  • Constance Versie on Genesis 1 - 2 years ago

  • Chris - In Reply on Jude 1 - 2 years ago
    Hi Bonnie. There are probably several methods that people have used to help in memorization; and as the old adage goes, 'Repetition is the mother of learning' is one that is most often used.

    However, when it comes to Scripture memorization, we need to remember that this is the Holy Word of God that we have in our hands, as 2 Timothy 3:16,17 tells us, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works."

    So I believe that both memorizing & understanding God's Word must have God's Holy Spirit to assist & guide us. Without Him, all that is written in the Bible are simply words holding limited value, with any memorization attempt only little more than what a child at school would memorize by rote. You probably already know many verses, with Psalm 23, John 3:16, and Romans 3:23 among the top ones known by many Christians. One good way to add to this, is by reading & meditating on the verses around them & as you read them over & over again, the Spirit will cement these others verses, not just in your mind, but more importantly deep in your heart. And when they are stored in the heart, they will more easily come to remembrance - very useful when you need to hear it when in trouble.

    My other advice is, not to attempt to memorize large portions of Scripture, because that will be very difficult & if you forget something, you may get discouraged. Go one verse at a time, slowly building up on other verses, particularly those that specially speak to you, meaningful, which you can also use to help others. And if possible, try to memorize the Bible references as well, alongwith the verse, so you can easily go back to it or show the verse to someone else. I'm sure others here will give you some good advice. May the Lord renew your love & memory power for storing up His Word in your heart.
  • Chris - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Thanks for the clarification brother. I didn't pick up on the cryptic nature of your response. We might have our own thoughts who is actually writing, but it's certainly not a matter that I would entertain - one that I feel is unnecessary & unprofitable.

    The message content is what's important, which should lead to a discussion that brings out Scriptures to support one's beliefs. Unfortunately, I think most want to just present their views, but are either unwilling or unable to adequately support them if questioned further. But that is their choice of course and that shouldn't prevent others from entering into a discussion, which I assume is the objective of this particular page. And conducted properly, readers of all persuasions should gain some benefit. Blessings.

    My question

    "How did you know I was questioning the identity?

    wasn't a denial it was an act of surprise!

    It was nailed as tho he saw what I saw!

    It shouldn't have been upsetting, it was meant to ride under radar.

    God bless.

  • Anonymous on James 1 - 2 years ago
    Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

    1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

    Ephesians 4:21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:

    22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;

    23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

    24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

  • Roy on Matthew 1 - 2 years ago
    I have been searching for direct translations into English of the words actually spoken by JESUS like the words that he used at the last supper. I have found extensive quotations in a "Gospel According to St Mathew" couple of quotes below:

    (1) And he said: "Whoever finds the meaning of these words will not taste death."

    (2) Jesus says:

    (1) "The one who seeks should not cease seeking until he finds.

    (2) And when he finds, he will be dismayed.

    (3) And when he is dismayed, he will be astonished.

    (4) And he will be king over the All."

    (3) Jesus says:

    (1) "If those who lead you say to you: 'Look, the kingdom is in the sky!' then the birds of the sky will precede you.

    (2) If they say to you: 'It is in the sea,' then the fishes will precede you.

    (3) Rather, the kingdom is inside of you and outside of you."

    (4) "When you come to know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will realize that you are the children of the living Father.

    (5) But if you do not come to know yourselves, then you exist in poverty, and you are poverty."

    As you can see they do not make a great deal of sense presumably because they are out of context?

    Any ideas as to where I can find more understandable direct quotations will be welcome.

    Thank you

    I read my bible, and have trouble remembering it, do you have any suggestions on how I may retain it better, I am 58 and memory not the best? Thank you & God Bless!
  • S Spencer - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Thanks Gigi.

    You're partially right.

    see my reply to Chris.

  • S Spencer - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Thanks Brother Chris.

    That msg I sent was supposed to be cryptic! And apparently it was!

    What is so astonishing is that yourself, Gigi, and Sammi is sort of correct.

    I was questioning the Identity.

    And I also was questioning the doctrine.

    That was my way of asking Ruby Lea "are you Earl Bowman?"

    The doctrine and style/dialog is Identical to Old man Wilson, Prophecy and Earls.

    If this message of salvation ends up where everyone is born again whether you believe or not, Why is it so important to press it at the point of changing Identity to do so?

    Our message has consequences!

    The message must be preached and one must believe!

    If I could pull off a Jacob to get it across I probably would.

    However there's no need for that for either.

    Now if this is "that doctrine" where EVERYONE is saved and become gods, THAT IS NOT TRUTH!

    God bless.

    Hello Evelyn

    Hope this helps God bless

    Christian answer net

    Such a great event as Noah's Flood would surely have left evidence to be found today. For instance, one would expect to find billions of dead creatures buried by water in mud and sand (now hardened to rock). And that is exactly what scientists do find around the world.

    Thousands of dinosaur bones can be found where they were washed together by violent flood waters and buried under mud, sand and rock. Many of the animals were torn apart and their bones broken and jumbled. The muds and sands often hardened like concrete to form the great layers of fossil rocks we find today.

    Dinosaur bone buried on stone.

    Quick flood burial would be the only way that so many dinosaurs and other things could have become fossilized in the way scientists have found
