    Compare Joshua the servant and Jesus the savior

    Earl That's what I stated body dust of the ground, breathed into nostrils breath of life, Biblically a living soul is a man with body and breath life which is what I said. But a complete man has body soul and Gods Spirit made available by Jesus Christ. The spirit is perfect body and soul end. In His Service

    Dennis Braswell Hebrews 10:26 In simple terms. When we got born again and received holy spirit our intent is not to Go against Gods word intentionally anymore. Another grieve not the holy spirit. this verse is saying If you willfully go against the payment made for you I.E. Gods only begotten son perfect sacrifice there is nothing left that can be done for your sin.

    Basically slapping God in the face so to speak not good. In His Service

    S Spencer, I know this was a reply to Jesse, if I may ask,

    The first part of your post I understand and agree, but the sentence that has "habitual sin, so called Christian, overlook the dislike and hate between what supposed to be brethren". Then "3 topics that generate this division".

    Do you suggest these three topics creates the so-called Christians or non-Christian? I'm sorry if I don't follow, do you mean, who does not agree with you on these three points or four are so-called Christians or non-Christian and create division?

    Can you honestly say you have studied these points; or have you over the years you have accepted them as the truth because that was what you have been taught? Do you test the spirits? Jesus spoke of this in Revelation about the Nicolaitans, that He hated ( Revelation 2:15).

    Paul warned ( Colossians 2:8) ( 1 Timothy 4:7). This was the beginning of the dominating Roman Church, made up of Greek philosophers, mythology, and Platonic teaching. Have we gone so far from the simplicity of Christ? Have we put man made doctrines above what scripture says for salvation?

    Last question; this is an honest question, do we have to believe in the trinity doctrine as written that is said to be a mystery but now is the basis of Christianity to be saved, has this doctrine replaced the chief corner stone which is Jesus Christ?

    If we are dead set on what scripture means, our ears will be closed to the Holy Spirit. You can reply or not, but that is ok, I had to ask, this out of love, if I disagree does not mean I hate.

    Christian Greetings! There are other interpretations to consider thinking of the mark.

    Here is one: A government that persecutes or suppresses the children of God may fall into the area of a beast government. This can be true even while the government performs services of law and order under God's will.

    A person that joins themselves to a spirit of suppression or persecution by using the government as force, they maybe giving them their mind or forehead to this fellowship and if the government becomes their life; then it is like giving the right hand to this fellowship.

    Christ Jesus wants his lambs to fellowship with him with their foreheads and right hands.

    Revelation 7:3 adds to this interpretation.

    It is possibly later than many think and chose to believe.

    Brother Rick, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and His understanding.

    I'm not sure what you think the soul is; if it's not our body of dust, with life by the breath of God.

    Leviticus 7:27 Whatsoever SOUL it be that eateth any manner of blood, even that SOUL shall be cut off from his people.

    Luke 12:19 And I will say to my SOUL, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat drink, and be merry.

    Job 16:4 I also could speak as you do, if your SOUL were in my SOUL'S stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake my head at you.

    Leviticus 23:30 And whatsoever SOUL it be that doeth any work in that same day, that same SOUL will I destroy from among his people.

    Deuteronomy 14:26 And thou shall bestow that money for whatsoever thy SOUL lusted after, for oxen, or for sheep, of for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever thy SOUL desireth: and thou shall eat before the LORD thy God, and thou shall rejoice, thee and thine household.

    The Sinners Prayer Whatever you do don't sit and confess all your sin A. because you can't remember them all and B. not needed. Repent and say forgive me then Romans 10:8 -11 Confess with thy mouth action thats necessary and believe in thine heart innermost part of your being or for the sake of explanation your gut. that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth and believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead thou shalt be saved [absolute tense] God doesn't mess around. verse 10 For with the heart[ again innermost part of your being] man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confessing is made unto salvation. or wholeness also look at Romans 2:4 2nd half its the Goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance.

    Why there are people who refused to received the mark of the beast? It is because they just followed on what stated in revelation 18:4, thus; they were no longer involved or connected in any religious,political,and commercial organizations who imposes systems that manipulated and exploited humankind.Why they followed revelation 18:4? It is because almighty god shows mercy on them.( romans 9;15,16,18) and he wrotes to them his laws on their heart and mind ( hebrews 8:10,11) and he separated them from those who have mark of the beast ( romans 11:4).

    Hello Jesse,

    Thanks for sharing that. Since you feel that way then it doesn't sound productive to continue discussing such things then. I think any conversation should be edifying and mutually beneficial.

    I'm not familiar with a past discussion you are referring to. It's possible I forgot or maybe it was a different person. I've seen others posting using the same name before, which with a common name I figured may periodically happen.

    It sounded like you characterized my comments as quite negative. That's hard to hear that as I've spent many hours helping people find Bible-based answers to their questions in the Word, researching and sharing Bible verses, and defending Christ against attacks and false teachings.

    What you shared about me sounds negative, but I have seen plenty of others have a positive response. Jesus is worth defending. He's worth even being persecuted for or risking being unpopular over. The Bible and the truth is worth defending. Satan is real and he does deceive. I am in prayer for wisdom for when it's appropriate to defend against false teaching and when to refrain. Where we spend eternity is a big deal, we are close to the end times, and its apparent that many Christians instead of following Jesus are following the world. Some aren't taking this seriously. Verses like Matthew 10:28 should be shared, especially when prompted by the holy spirit. Praying for wisdom and understanding of the Word is important.

    God bless...

    S. Spencer P.S. I never said hate to me that's an entirely different thought process, and I agree with what you said, concerning walking in Love, 1 corinthians 13 all the way. In His Service
  • Frankzdrrik orijola - 4 years ago
    Nobody in this world could agreed that they have the mark of the beast ( john 8:32- 1john 5:19- revelation 13:16-18)but on their deeds it would be clearly manifested whether they are disciples of religious,political or commercial organizations by means of patronizing (buy) and campaigning for patronizing (sell) traditions,customs,occassions,laws,wars,economy,arts,science,and technologies which are the properties of almighty god adversary,and in this time of global pandemic,all religious,political and commercial organizations discilpes rushes into vaccination sites just to patronize the vaccine which is a product of science and technology and only those who have no mark of the beast refuses to go there whatever the consequences takes place on them.( revelation 13:17) .

    Hi Diane.

    possibly Here.

    Ezekiel 9:5-7. And to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity:

    Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women: but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.

    And he said unto them, Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go ye forth. And they went forth, and slew in the city.

    God bless.

    S. Spencer Brother you misunderstand my point I have a lot of brothers in Christ who don't share the same understanding biblically , but when it comes to our love for each other spiritually that's an entirely different issue. Your love for God is without question by what i read, but in certain areas perhaps we don't see the same thing, but that doesn't change the way I'm supposed to walk in Love. In His Service

    Who can help me find a scripture? I am paraphrasing the event. There was a prophet or Levite that took up a sword to execute God's judgment. He neither recognized/distinguished his father, mother, sister or brother. Where is this passage found?

  • Jesse - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Adam,

    You just sent me two separate posts with a whole lot of question marks in there. Are you wanting me to respond or are you looking for me to send more that you can disagree with? I'm trying to be careful in my discussions with you because if you remember, about two years ago, we disagreed on something, and you were not open to discuss, I can't recall what it was, but someone reported me (I assume you), and I was asked to stay off this site for 72 hours. I am trying to avoid that because I enjoy the fellowship with others here, including you, even if we disagree on some things.

    We all have our views and understanding of what God's word says. So, who's view is right, and who's is wrong? Are you the one to decide that?

    My perspective is that it is not what I say that's truth, and it's not what you say that's truth. God's word alone is truth. Hopefully that's something we can both agree on.

    I like to find common ground with other believers. I know we can't always agree on everything but there are things we can agree on, and there are thing I know for fact that you and I agree on. Do you even know what they are?

    Adam, I'll be honest with you, and please do not take offense at what I'm about to say because I mean no ill will towards you. I know you love the Lord and so do I.

    But what I have noticed over the past few years of reading your posts, and I do read them, but it seems that every time you come on here, it is to disagree with others, rebuke them, or insinuate that their belief or view comes from Satan.

    Have you ever stopped to think before coming on here and telling others they are wrong that maybe your view or understanding could be off a little?

    I really would love to respond to the questions you just sent my way but I think your mind is already made up that you're going to disagree no matter what my response might be so we'll leave it at that.
  • S Spencer - 4 years ago
    Hi Rick.

    Division between non believers is expected, That's what truth does,

    Matthew 10:34-37.Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

    For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.

    And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.

    He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

    But amongst the Brothern you're bonded together by Love, It's the spirit that causes this, "By this WE KNOW that he's in us and we in him, When one hates the Brothern, then the spirit is not in him, and if you have not the Spirit of Christ then you are none of his. There are people that claims to be Christian that absolutely "HATES" people who don't hold there views.

    And that's because they're void of the spirit that produces this precious fruit.

    1 John 4:20-21. 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?

    And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God ( LOVE HIS BROTHER ALSO.) "Do you notice it don't say "SHOULD" love his brother? No. It says Love his brother. this is equity! Not a command but a reaction CAUSED by the Spirit.

    Perhaps by this "HATE" you can tell who's on the wrong side of the argument.

    God bless.

    Hi Adam My thinking is when God tells you to do it there is no risk because everything from him is profitable James 1:17, believing God is no Gamble. That being said I understand your point. In His Service.

    No stock exchange, no savings account , no health insurance . Wages go into a current or checking account because that's how we get paid here . Never ever had a loan . We have enough . We don't starve and we can pay our bills . I feel like a rich woman because I know the Truth . I have family members that are very rich , I have family members that are poor . I want for nothing and I'm happy , truly happy and the reason is because I KNOW the Truth . Christ is coming and I'm excited about that every day . This world is not my home , it doesn't belong to me and I don't belong to it . We are spirits in the material world . May God bless you all , may He provide for you as generously and mercifully as He does for me and may He make you His for ever .

    What must I do to be saved biblically?
  • Adam - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hello, what is your definition of gambling? Taking a financial risk in hope for a more desirable outcome? Do you invest in the stock market? That's gambling. Keep cash in a low interest savings account? That's taking a gamble that inflation rates don't erode the value of the currency and that the bank doesn't go out of business. Do you have health insurance? That's gambling that it will cost you less having it than not having it. Run a business? Gambling that you'll earn more money than you spend. Lots of verses support financial responsibility, but nothing is without risk. Even doing nothing with money is a risk, because most lose value to inflation. I think gambling extends beyond money too to holding 'assets' or any kind of trading, because it's all subject to risk and an uncertain future outcome. Jesus's parable of the talents supports financial responsibility and being proactive despite risk. There are other verses supporting this too. Christian financial educators like Dave Ramsey feel they have lots of Biblical support for being financially responsible. God bless.
  • Rick - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Martha Mt first point you won't like stop dealing with this emotionally, example when lee Iacoca was fired from Ford because the Grandson didn't like Him Chrysler hired him. It took lee 5 months to realize how bad a shape Chrysler was in and he called up his engineer friends at ford and got them to come over to Chrysler.

    In order to Get Chrysler out of bankruptcy he had to layoff 5,000 employees and the engineers that worked for him asked him for a guarantee financially. He said to them when this thing takes off you buy stocks at cost, they trusted him and went to work for Him for next to nothing. Talk about trusting a man, also the first year with Chrysler lee made 1.00 when Chrysler got turned around lee said he would never do an undertaking like that again. If He would not have done what He did her proved that if chrysler goes under than the Entire auto industry goes under.

    Chrysler was so broke when they had a meeting with the banks and government for the loan they ordered pizza's for delivery and the pizza company ask who was it for. They said chrysler the pizza company said that will be cash.

    My point is trusting God is not based on emotion but principle, principle stands like a rock, emotions come and go. Let Gods word be the Rock In His Service

    S. Spencer The only thing that creates division in the body is unbelief if we all believed the same doctrine of what we believe there would not be any division. The apostle Paul fought that all the time. In the Book of Philippians like minded is mentioned a lot. In His Service

  • Rick - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hi Dr. Miller Just a few points number 1 Religion is corrupt, that's mans way of doing things in the name of God, Christianity is what God accomplished by Jesus Christ so He could have a Family. 2 Genesis they never ate an apple still don't know where that one came from. You appear to be angry so I gather the examples you have experienced of Christians hasn't been to pleasant. Been down that road never blamed God. By the way hanks for everything you do in your field.
