Okay thank you

Brother Fred, Thank you. You have made me think of these two verses in Luke 24:14-15 !

And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near,

and went with them.

Two commentaries about the gifts of the Holy Spirit. We can ask for a specific gift. The Holy Spirit chooses for us. It is as He wills.

The Bible says to desire the best gift.

Wesley's Notes for 1 Corinthians 12:11

As he willeth - The Greek word does not so much imply arbitrary pleasure, as a determination founded on wise counsel.

People's Bible Notes for 1 Corinthians 12:11

1Corinthians 12:11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit. There are named in 1Co 12:8-10 nine gifts, all supernatural, imparted by the same Spirit, which distributes them according to his own will.

*** the Gift of Tongues and Interpretation of Tongues are ministry gifts. Ok?

"speaking in tongues or praying in tongues" is entirely for your own edification. It is not the Gift of tongues.

Sacha is right. It may help if you attend a church that welcomes the gifts of the Holy Spirit. People lay hands on you to receive your prayer language.

Find in the gospel books where all the disciples were in the Upper Room on Pentecost praying, when the Holy Spirit, as Jesus promised, came in as a mighty rushing wind and fell on them. Be at peace and relax. The prayer language is for your Rest and Edification.

Your human brain and emotions will not understand it.

Barbara , if you read Genesis you will discover that Moses married an Ethiopian lady . I'm guessing she had dark skin hair and eyes . No , it doesn't say anywhere that we must only marry some one of the same ethnicity as us . As Christians we are strongly advised to only marry another Christian and the Israelites were also commanded to only marry people of the same true faith as themselves , Uriah was a Hittite but he must have converted to Judaism . There are other examples that you will find if you read the Bible .

Thank you brother. Let brotherly love continue! I cannot begin to fathom the loneliness He must have felt. His own leaving Him! Still you here Him say, "Father forgive them, they do not know what they do"! This love is beyond all understanding, it is who He is. This is the love that we share!

My place is where ever God puts me .

Song of Solomon 5:16

His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is all together lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.

Joel 2:28

And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:

Acts 2:17

And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

revelation 16:2 is this a result from the experimental mRNA injection given around the world now?

I recommend starting with the book of John and continuing on in order from there.

The glorious Lamb of God is feeding in the eternal pasture of peace in humility, His Father speaks from afar confirming His son as His bosom, the beloved son. His son lifts his round eyes in love to the stranger.

:)

Thank you for your comments on the Holy Spirit!

Brother Fred, Greet the brethren with a Holy Kiss.

Let brotherly Love continue.

Amen.

Psalm 82: 6 is the law spoken of in John 10:30

This is what religion does not teach man. Jesus is taught to be above us. On a pedestal. This was not his teaching. This keeps us down under a goal impossible to achieve. This is the work of the evil one. Read and reread both scriptures until you get it.

Proverbs. Start with Proverbs. It's an entire book about wisdom and understanding. A perfect place to start

Judge not lest ye be judged. I write once again to myself. While feelings are not always true, for they are of the flesh and can deceive, so this feeling of being judged by others. How these things must have affected Christ, the thoughts and contempt towards him. Even as the Lord was omnipotent, while being in the flesh, these feelings would have overwhelmed most of us! Those who hold contempt for others are those who stand in judgment. So, since I am not omnipotent, I will rely of the judgment of God towards those who are against me, who judge me! As Paul once said, "before God I stand or fall, It is a small matter for you to judge me! The power of the Holy Spirit found in Christ, is the supply we will need in each situation. Prayer, giving of thanks, these are the beginnings of a relationship in Him, that will confound the world.

Repent and be baptized, In Christ!

Be reverent and not irreverent a anyone, because even the Holy Spirit of God is inside of all who believed in Jesus of Nazareth; try to be born again in the spirit and cast away all your boast of wise men; be humble and not one who reproaches others; Jesus said love one another as I have loved you all.

Glory to God i need more such like this and verse of the day may LORD,bless you.

Brother I know I do, Thank you. A Very sweet prayer.

Amen.

I would really enjoy a commentary. .I enjoy reading God word. But I am lost reading Ezekiel.

Deuteronomy 7:9

What are the seven stars and seven golden candlesticks in Rev. 2:1?

Ezekiel 4:13,16,17

Ezekiel is a book you have to read in context. Please read the whole book. I've read it a few times & recently I've just found new dynamics to his situation I had not noticed before.

Hopefully that's helpful.

Daniel 1:1-6

If you read the book of Daniel, they were taken captive. Daniel was a child. I've read & studied the book of Daniel a few times & did not find who his parents were. It might even be a Bible game question, I've had & looked up.

Sometimes things are left out, I believe purposefully so that our minds will be focused on the message GOD has for each of us within each moment of our lives & circumstances.

King Solomon was king after David he was one of the youngest brothers & there was peace in the land while Solomon reigned. He took decades to build one his homes. Doesn't add up to me.

Why do you ask?

If you're curious about time-lines, many books of the Bible overlap.

Helpful, I hope.

Although we fall continually from His path, I praise the Lord for His continued protection and love for us. May I receive Godly rebuke well as well a king Jehoshaphat did in the prefect Name and Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Praying for our nation's leaders during this Pandemic, social, economic, and political unrest. May we all turn to the salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ, for there in lies our hope, peace and comfort.

God bless all, and may the Lord's face shine continually upon us daily.

During a discussion about marriage, a question came up about mixed race marriages. I grew up with the understanding and have the belief that the Bible has direction regarding the fact that people should marry their own kind. But, I cannot find anything regarding this. I am not talking about homosexuality but rather race, ethnicity, etc. Of course there is the passage that as God's children we "should be evenly yoked". However, my question is - is there a passage regarding race or anything regarding this issue of mixed marriage ie. white should marry white, black should marry black, etc. As a Christian, what is Jesus' teaching or God's commandment - not what society says is okay. If I am somewhat correct, please give me the book, chapter and verse where I might find direction on this matter. Thank you.

Jonah called of God, but was 100% out of God's will going to Tarshish at that God prepared a great fish to save Jonah. That don't mean he was right.

Matthew 19:7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?

19:8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but (from the beginning it was not so.)

Women have a place in the home and work of the Lord, but to be in authority over the man is forbidden by the written word. ( 1 Timothy 5:14) ( Titus 2:3-5)

D W L , do your initials stand for Down With Love ? Luke Ch 19 Verse37-40 . The disciples were making a lot of noise praising God , do you believe that none of these disciples were women ? They weren't saying anything wrong so why did the Pharisees want them to be quiet ? Maybe because some of them were women ? Read Jesus's response in Verse 40 please .

Psalms 127:2

It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

Song of Solomon 5:2

I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night.

You are his beloved and he is yours.

[Nowsometimes there is a duo that tries to wear us down and discourage us (all hours). They bother me too and anybody else who loves Jesus and isn't afraid of the Gospel of Christ.]

Pray this: By the Authority of Jesus Christ and the Blood of Jesus, I exercise dominion and authority over Satan and his demons 'harass and hinder'. In the name of Jesus I now send you outlaw spirits into outer darkness to forever wander.

By the authority of Jesus Name I yield to the rest that belongs to his beloved. Thank you for angels that guard my bedside every time I sleep.

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. Luke 2:14

Mishael: you won't have to do this every day.

In the Book of Daniel who are his parents. I have read they are not mentioned and another was he is the second son of King David and Abigail. Which is correct?

Thank You for making the Bible available online!
