What is the name of your unit?

Abram believes the power and promises of God. Melchizedek is the high priest sent from God to bless Abram! This is the beginning of the kingdom, the kingdom that proclaims the coming savior! Abraham tithes the spoils, unto the King of the future kingdom, the communion of bread and wine that would become the victory found in the atonement of Christ sacrifice!

Abraham knows the power and promises of God. Melchizedek is the high priest sent from God to bless Abraham! This is the beginning of the kingdom, the kingdom that proclaims the coming savior! Abraham tithes the spoils, unto the King of heaven and earth! Check out the word to the Hebrews in the new testament.

Norman Walker,

If anyone tries to Jesus bully me on the boards, I will super Jesus steamroll them.

Elijah steamrolled 450 priests of Baal....the swine ran off the cliff.

See you at the Revelation 16:16 Jehoshaphat blood drive, get a cookie.

Amen. Thank you!

Lately, after reading the scriptural passages and reading the posts on this forum I find myself thinking of my own life. This is me, and I pray no one on this platform thinks I am pointing fingers at everyone else.

I thank the Lord for everyone who takes the time to post their thoughts and encouragement for all who come to this forum. The Lord be praised for His long suffering and mercies to me and all who seek Him. I know I should not sin, but when I repent my God is a Loving and a Forgiving God. Thank you Lord for your Word. 2 Timothy 3:16, 17. For your Holy Spirit in me and all who are yours. Ephesians 4:30.

Although it seems as if we are losing the battle, fret not, we win the war! As we used to say in school, I know because I read the last chapter of the book.

May the Lord bless all, and may we all follow hard unto the Lord God Jesus Christ.

Pray for those in Authority and also the lost.

Sacha,

I always delight to read your posts, especially while I eat my English breakfast, sipping on a cup of English tea, alongside my English sheep dog. Goosebumps. You really outdid yourself today; no one is accidentally like a martyr.

The best paths to take are the narrow lanes. I might get a visceral reaction to one of God's children in the comment section, their rampant ignorance makes me want to drain their bank accounts, but not enough to develop any mad psychotic hatreds. I like to think I am an average hater, a surface road narrator, pushing and shoving my way into heaven like a 13 year old girl at a Beiber concert.

Dianne I agree The word trinity is not in Bible and God did not raise Himself from the dead, and the scriptures say no man has ever seen God, Jesus Christ Displayed the word and will of our and His Father. It's an individuals priviledge to agree or disagree respectfully yours.

Seth , please , tell me all these errors , I'm serious , you can't expect to say that and to not give plenty of examples , please do so , I'm genuinely interested .

What a fab post , so full of joy , thank you so much .

Spike , as Melchizedek is the priest I have always assumed that Abraham gave him tithes . I could be wrong .

Jesse with all due respect in Gospel of John 14 Jesus Christ said those who believe in Him. He did not qualify just apostles also after pentecost miracles were done by other believers. P.S. I personally have had several in my life. God Bless

Taylor , maybe what you are asking for is not part of God's plan for you ? Maybe He has other things He wants you to do ? Be patient , you can be sure He loves you and knows what is best for you , He will put you where you need to be ,stay cool and wait for Him .

We do not forget the past nor shut the door on it. Remember where we came from to not repeat the past.

John Ch 21 ,V 1-19 . Apart from the obvious narrative , what is happening here ? Firstly Jesus gives Peter the opportunity to make up for his three fold denial of him by asking him 3 times "lovest though me " . Secondly Jesus is telling Peter and the other disciples with him , this fishing isn't your job any more "feed my sheep " , that's Peters new job , and thirdly Jesus is showing Peter and the others that they don't need to worry about providing for themselves and their families , if they have them , Jesus will provide , he will feed them . I have found that very often in scripture there is a lot more going on than that which is at first apparent .

Spike, it was Abraham who paid tithes to Melchizedek (see Hebrews 7:1-6).

Let us strive to keep focus on it is written, events change circumstances and conditions change Jesus Christ the same yesterday today and Forever. God Bless

Spike in response to your question, yes Melchizedek King of Salem was trying to give Abram the Processor of the most high God his tithes due to him delivering his enemies into thine hands.

Jack Sir with all due respect the original Word of God was Given to men that God Showed what He wanted written, so you want to shoot blame try the author and Good luck with that. Just Saying. God Bless

Spike Second one

Laura There are Christians who believe He's Son of God and God the son, and there's others that believe just son of God I know historically that the Trinity did not start until constantine decreed the nicene creed. Now here's what Gods Word says Jesus said I am my father are one, also I can do nothing without my father, no man has seen God at any time, God is spirit, the word trinity is not in the bible. Personally I don't go down the road because depending on the individual its discussed with it can be very contentious. Also there are clergy and scholars who debate this. So work the word.

Jesse With all due respect in Gospel of John 14:10-14 Jesus Christ said those that believe in me, this is not just addressed to the apostles, after day of pentecost as Paul writes in the Church epistles we were given Christ in us and all the power that comes with the package deal. In the book of acts there were other believers than the apostles that did miracles. In Mark 16: 17-20 Jesus Christ said those that believe not Just the apostles.

Taylor as you pray as God to reveal to you the things that are blocking your blessings. Sometime things and/or people in your life can prevent you from getting what the Lord has for you. As you pray stand on God's word and truly believe in what you are asking him to do for you. God is a man that he shall not lie, if he said he it then it shall and will come to pass. So though you are weary faint not because the Lord is with you and he will not allow you to fall.

In the book of Genesis Chapter 14:18-20 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God. And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.

My question is: Is it Melchizedek giving tithes of all he has to Abram? or is it Abram giving tithes of all he has to Melchizedek?

James said is there any sick among you let him call on the elders of the Church, But that has been cut off, As Jesus said I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD BUT THE NIGHT COMES WHEN NO MAN CAN WORK . NO MAN . How do the Priests and the Ministers do mourn for the NEW WINE ,the New Covenant has been cut off, Joel . The day of the Lord will not come till there be a great falling away and that man of sin be revealed .We are in that time Jesus spoke of that great Abomination of Desolation STANDING IN THE HOLY PLACES ( the Churches ) I am the LIGHT OF THE WORLD BUT THE NIGHT COMES WHEN NO MAN CAN WORK , The days are coming when you will desire to see one of the days of the SON OF MAN but you will NOT see them , The Bridegroom will be taken away then shall you fast in those days . 6 million Jews died in Hitlers death camps simply b/c we are in this spritual darkness the great abomination of desolation is upon US, All the Churches are desolate even the big mega Churches are in love with the Almighty Dollar . Their Vision is football and sports . That man of sin is seen in all of US Christians. Micah 5 Says he will give them up ( the early Church ) till the woman is in Birth pains which is the world that is gonna have a baby Christ ,That woman in rev 12 is Us sinners. The Child is the H.G. THAT CHILD OF PROMISE , Then the kingdom comes , Unless ya receive the kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in . The Prophet Jeremiah saw ALL men in travail and birth pains meaning the whole world is gona be bornagain. If i be lifted up i will draw ALL men unto me. Plz read Joel if ya wanna know what happened to the early Church . Thank you Jesus for the seed of the sower. which is the seed of the bridegroom his voice the Living word.

Conceptualizing the past, with the present, unto the future, is how His word works! Knowing the past is the path behind, while we look forward, looking for a new and better way!

A nation, a people who are chosen and yet deny him, even with evidence of a past full of His mercy, while he continues judging separating the sheep from the goats, keeping the hope alive for the next generation!

Do you recognize this judgment that comes from above, do you understand still what He is done for you? What does He mean when He says " will He find faith on the earth when He returns?"

A People who have not learned from the sin of the past, will repeat it in the future. Many there be who still plead with Him, asking for forgiveness .

Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven."

This is the resurrection and the life, for all mankind, for the world!

It's not that easy to discern who Jesus was from how the Word is phrased, or his limited powers. Some say Jesus was God in flesh, others cast doubt. Absolute hogwash. There was nobody in history like Jesus.

Like in Rev 21 & 22 who exactly is "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely." It seems like different characters say that phrase, but I'm sure thy are one.

I would like a definitive answer about Christ's powers on earth but there are none new to be had, only faith. Jesus was a good boy doing his father's will. When I meet up with the editors of the Bible, I will punch each one of them error riddled gaffers square in the nose. They had a great deal of responsibility, it was all you had to do, and they screwed it up.

Hello Ella. The old adage: "Repetition is the mother of learning" is useful here. But to be specific, Repetition can be very much the tool for memorization.

I don't know whether you have specific verses that you want to memorize, or you are reading through the Bible & want to pick up on certain verses that speak to you & can be useful to you or others later. In either case, you would want to with God's Help (i.e. with prayer) commit that verse to your mind & heart & continue to repeat it. Then through the day & into the succeeding days continue to recall that verse, with its reference, so it becomes established in your heart. Some people have memorized whole chapters, even Bible books, but start off in a small way first & concentrate on some meaningful verses to you, or what your Pastor/Elder has preached about. The Word of God is a living Word, i.e. the Scriptures we hold in our hands are "God-breathed", or inspired & energized by God for our instruction & observance ( 2 Timothy 3:16), so you can rest assured that God's Spirit will enable you to not only memorize the Scriptures but to apply them to your life. May the Lord bless you in your study & plan for Scripture memorization.

It is such a joy to meet someone who can barely believe the wonders that God is willing to show to those who love and are excited, about what He has prepared for us to find.

I decided a long time ago to believe every single thing God has said in His Word. It's not hidden to those who understand God is Creator; willing to show us the mysteries. Sometimes I go outside at night and just stare upwards...knowing that He's looking at me.

I threw off doubts, like Lazarus was encased in the wrappings of his shroud; after Jesus told him to come forth! Luke 11:43-44, 25-26

I was out at this bird sanctuary in a frozen January looking at cranes standing on floating blocks of ice. I remark how dead everything looks. My friend says, Not! Flips over a rock and I kneel down to see this whole "bug city" happily doing bug things. I've never forgotten how my unbelief turned into Wonder. When life looks really dead and standstill; flip over the rock.

Doubt and unbelief are killers. Life is way more interesting than television. I resent advertisers attempting to capture my loyalty to yucky hamburgers. I have a photo of a mother duck with 8 tiny babies on her back, and it makes me think of God. He is so much closer than we think. He loves us and wants to show us things...if we will just slow down and take a walk with Him. I guess Romans 1 captures my heart and loyalty to God, who has made all of this so we can clearly see Him.

Why is it so hard to tell others, like the Samarian woman at the well who met Jesus and ran fast as she could to tell others, COME SEE A MAN..who told me all the words of my life!!

He is on every page in the Bible. Your joy, gives Him joy in your life. Even on the dark, cloudy days. He's refreshing the earth :)

Maybe if we turn again towards our Lord, the rains will return and end this drought in our land?

Stop the famine, of not hearing the Word of God. Tell of his Mighty Love.

Adam,

Mystery Babylon behaves and fulfills prophesy as if mirroring the beast. At the day of the Lord, and while in the midst of destroying the whole house of Israel (modern day), anti-christ attacks and takes 3 nations from his own confederacy.

( Ezekiel 38:13) Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, with all the young lions thereof, shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil? anti-christ destroyed his own property.

Daniel confirms the prophesy:

( Daniel 7:24) And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them (Gog); and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings, [Sheba, and Dedan, and Tarshish].

( Daniel 11:42) He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape. [Saudi Arabia, Egypt & Turkey?]

..............................................................................

On 9-11-01 America attacked itself, blamed the attack on a patsy and rushed off to war, all on a pack of lies. To fight an "enemy" who fought on the US side against Iraq and Syria as hired mercenaries. This is "The Greater Israel Project," carving out a buffer zone between Israel, their neighbors and more.

US Statement From General Wesley Clark: (after 3 towers in NY were plucked), we're going to take out 7 ME countries in 5 years.

( Revelation 9:10) And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men FIVE months.

After Biblical Babylon falls, the Beast "takes" 3 of his 10 allies, leaving 7 nations in his command. The US does prophesy backwards to mimic what the Beast does by taking 3 of their own horns (towers), then taking 7 nations in 5 years (months). According to the rules of numerology, this is a perfect supplanted fit.
