today's bible verse and inspiration and prayer on my phone
"Why would the Bible tell someone to drink wine when strong drink is a mocker . Are they talking about grape juice or wine that swirls in the glass?"
Try to understand. When Jesus was born, God had sent His only begotten Son to die for our sins so that we could be reconciled to God.
Jesus was 33 yrs old when He started His ministry. Jesus's first miracle was to turn water into wine. After that the miracles happened more often: the sick were healed, he fed the multitudes with a few loaves of bread and a few fishes, the blind got their sight, the lame walked, demons were cast out, and the dead were brought back to life.
Jesus gave His disciples the authority to preform those same miracles in His name. ( Luke 10:1-20)
When Jesus was crucified and died, and buried, and God raised Him from the dead, and Jesus ascended into Heaven-
His disciples continued on preaching the Gospel of Jesus, and preforming miracles (like healing the sick) until the day when they died.
HOWEVER, the time of miracles was a one time historical event. The miracles were Jesus's credentials that proved He is the Son of God and that God had sent Him.
The miracles ceased when the last original Apostle died. (I think John was the last.)
The Apostle Paul who, wasn't one of the original Apostles was specifically chosen by God to preach the Gospel of Christ to the Gentiles. (Hence, Jesus appeared to Paul on the Damascus road.) When you read the Pauline Epistles you think they were written one after another. When in reality, months or years passed between letters. Paul was a very old man by the time he had written his letters to Timothy. The age of miracles had ceased to where Paul (or Timothy or any other of the other disciples) couldn't heal anyone. So he told Timothy to drink a little wine for his stomach's sake. (the wine helped kill the bacteria that was causing Timothy stomach problems.)
An occasional glass of wine is okay. Alcoholism is not.
"The Bible seems to contradict itself sometimes. I don't understand how the world was populated by only 2 people. Where did the people come from that Able was scared would find him and kill him when he was sent into the land of nod. Incest is a sin so who had those people?. I also don't understand how we were made in Gods image when It says God is a spirit. I need help."
The world wasn't populated by just two people. God created all the races on the 6th day. Genesis 1:26-31
(I don't understand why people disregard this and think Adam and Eve were the only two people on the planet.)
God rested on the 7th day.
On the "8th" day God noticed that all the people were just hunters and gatherers. Nobody farmed the land.
So he created Adam, then Eve. After they "ate the apple" God cast them out of the garden He created for them and they had to till the earth. Eve gave birth to Cain who tilled the land. Then Abel who tended the sheep. Cain killed Abel so God drove him away and he went and married one of the 6th-DayCreation women. By that time the 6th-Day-Creation people had multiplied greatly and there were thousands of them.
Then Eve had another son named Seth. It was from Seth's bloodline that all the greats came (Noah, Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, the Prophets and finally Jesus.)
And, it was Cain (not Abel) that God sent to the land of Nod, who married and had children. Genesis 4:16-17
God set a mark upon Cain so that people would not kill him.
(What the "mark" is, is a hot subject to debate.)

We are all sinners.God loves all of us! We are all brothers and sisters in Christ!
1 John 4:20
"If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?"
Romans 12:10
"Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;"
I love you, and I will pray for you my brother.
God Bless
Guess where I learned that? From this comment Room! Esteem others, better than yourself.
Matthew 5
31 It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorcement:
32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
Commentaries:
Wesley's Notes for Matthew 5:31
Let him give her a writing of divorce - Which the scribes and Pharisees allowed men to do on any trifling occasion. # Deut 24:1; Matt 19:7; Mark 10:2; Luke 16:18.
People's Bible Notes for Matthew 5:31
Mt 5:31,32 Whosoever shall put away his wife. The divorce laws were very lax among the Jews. A man could put away his wife "for any cause" ( Matthew 19:8). Moses directed a legal letter of divorcement ( Deuteronomy 24:1). Christ positively forbids divorce except for unchastity. Marriage is a divine institution, and the obligation is for life. Mt 19:3-9; Romans 7:1-3; 1 Corinthians 7:10-17
You can read these other scripture references also.
Thank you..
You will take the mark to avoid being shot at, tortured, stabbed or killed. The ones taking the mark will do so to survive, their families, that's a natural response. If you don't the take the mark, you'll die of want, so why not kill yourself to save yourself? Killing yourself is a sin, but it's better than the mark, right? This amounts to false fear mongering, misinterpreting the end times, plain and simple.
Now listen to this: the refusal of the mark is addressed specifically towards the one hundred forty four thousand sealed saints from twelve tribes of Israel. They are the only ones strong enough to not take the mark. I know you never ever knew this truth before, and don't try to say you did. Just be glad you know now, and don't forget where you learned it, either. Everyone else during the great tribulation will be eating their portion of anti-christ's meat.
Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Like wife and husband yes. Like God and son yes. And for now stop telling me and the rest on the web site that the Kingdom of God thru the Holy Ghost is the grandson. If it have being rightly Jesus hade said something like this. Go now out in the worldwide and make grandson's. He did not.
Please refer to some scripture from the Holy Bible where it mentions grandson.
That we multiplies in the Kingdom of Christ it is not the same. Thanks for the attention. Love u all in Christ. God bless u all in Jesus name.
95% of so called Christians are Christians in name only, they have no idea what's coming to purify them. They listened to their own desires, whims and never knew the prophets. This perverted nation was made to receive the abomination of desolation. Pay attention to what Isaiah 24 says about our visitation, and the vacuous aftermath. Make sure you never read Obadiah so you can keep ignorant to the fact that a grown up Esau completely wipes out a grown up Jacob; yeah, the murderer Jacob gets his comeuppance as Babylon. Jacob's time of trouble sees God's servant anti-christ coming up against Israel with never seen before devises. God holds the right hand of Cesar Putin.

Looks like another big one sliding out to sea from Africa. Don't toss those sandbags yet.
I love nature or just being outside I guess.
I noticed the black birds in Central Texas have shed their tail feathers. That means cold weather in 6-8 weeks.
With Christ's love caution those with brand new generators. They can be dangerous. We had a nearby house burn down last week. Tragic but no one hurt.
Hi Chris :D
One thing more, I am not your brother. If I were, you would have accepted the teachings and the truths I've shared in the Spirit that they were offered.
It really covers everything you need to know, all in one spot.
There is a process. Sometimes too many voices speaking at once is confusing. The Book of John is the best Book to compare what you know and what else may clear up the process.
When you are born again, Jesus baptizes us with the Holy Spirit, to live inside of your heart. He's your TEACHER. You can ask him anything. Just be sensitive to hear His replies. With me, He'll give me a scripture to look up. This website has a search engine that will quickly find that scripture.
If you type: HOLY SPIRIT in the search engine on this website (and click on New Testament Only) you will see all that we have available to us, through His Ministry. He's gentle and strong too. For me it's easier to hear him, if I turn off the media for a while.
I'm not ashamed to say that I cherish my friendship with the Holy Spirit. I worship Jesus for giving Him to me.
