For it was said that an angel went down from time to time into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made well of whatsoever disease held him fast.

In the Hebrew tongue: What's the name of this pool ?

Hi Anthony. Could you expand on Revelation 3:10 please? Given your understanding on it, the verse sounds like the the Philadelphian Church is promised to be non-existent by the time "the hour of temptation which shall come upon the whole world" takes place.

But if they're promised to be kept from that hour while they were in existence, then the question, 'when did that hour arrive that would come upon & test the whole world?' Was history remiss by not recording that great event or maybe we've misinterpreted "hour of temptation"? It gets confusing.

Question: Who here can tell me what Jesus meant when He said " And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not to take thy coat also." in Luke 6:29

Thanks T. Lewis.

I must have missed that.

Hello Shelves,

God did not come from anywhere. He has existed always. He had no beginning and will never ceases to be. This is why He gave Moses His name as "I AM WHO I AM" or "I WILL BE WHO I WILL BE" which speaks to being everlasting, eternal, being self-existent. This means that God is Life Itself. His existence is derived only from Himself, not having acquired life or existence outside of Himself. Existence is internally Who He Is. In many places in the Scriptures God speaks of Himself as the Eternal God, Everlasting Father, Everlasting to Everlasting, ( Isaiah 63:16; 1 Chronicles 16:36; 29:10; Psalm 41:13; 90:2; Isaiah 9:6; 40:26; Psalm 93:2; Genesis 21:33; Jeremiah 10:10, etc.)

We are to understand by these Scriptures that God always IS eternally so. He alone has this eternal existence, that is why He alone is the only true God. Hope this helps.

Hello Duncan, Revelation 3:10 is not addressed to present day Christians.

In Rev: 1:19 We see that John is told to write about things that were current and about things that would happen in the future.

"Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;" (Rev: 1:19 )

So, a clear distinction is made between what was current and what would happen in the future. So where do we draw the line between the messages to the churches and the prophecies concerning what would happen in the future? We are given the answer in Rev: 4:1

1"After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter."

So, in Rev. 2and 3 each of the seven churches received a message specific to that church and it's circumstances at that particular time and are separate to the prophecies concerning the future.

This is my understanding.

However there is other scripture to encourage that GOD is able to deliver: 2Peter 2:5-9, we are to be good soldiers, endure: 2Timothy 2:3, 2Timothy 4:5, 1Peter 2:19, Matthew 24:13, Mark 13:13,

Matthew 24, Mark 13, Jesus explains specifically it's after the great tribulation He will gather together His elect.

Revelation 6:9-11, Revelation 2:11, Hebrews 11,

GOD's WORD is called a living word by many because of it's HIS amazing ability to be relevant today, prophetic & historical

Psalms 22, for example, Psalms 41:9 King David being betrayed by Saul, yet predicting Jesus' betrayer

I see Revelation significant for today & more than simple coincidence when Philadelphia is researched online only USA references are found, being the only significant Philadelphia in our time, the the very foundation of an otherwise unmentioned World Power was founded on "in GOD We TRUST" in Philadelphia, where both our Declaration of Independence, The US Constitution were signed & US Mint prints faithfully those very words upon all currency. Revelation 3:8, The Liberty bell that has inscription about the Biblical Jubilee, Leviticus 25:10, also remains today ironically cracked._._. Philadelphia also the proposed Capital of USA, still debated today of the legitimacy of the meeting that decided a different venue. Song today trendy "The room where it happenes" Revelation 3:7-13, 2020 2nd largest Jewish population in the World is USA, Many claims of Jewish heritage in movie, banking, business, judiciary yet deny GOD's laws & justice ect.

Revelation Philadelphia, very interesting to me.

the word of God is the same today and forever more. Its true people can be taken over by demon and many cases of mental health is actually demonic.

you need to understand that Jesus began his ministries with casting out demons and they hide in plain site today.

the work of Saturn is to ensure no one believes he is around.

read your bible and pray for understanding.

Pray first and ask Jesus to open your heart to his word then read acts 16:25 to 33.

if you abide in him he will abide in you and the works of the spirit will be evident in you such as Joy, love ect john 15. and all people are commanded everywhere to repent of like wise will perish.

1John 4:7,8,12,16,17,18,19,20,21

if you read the word of God the bible, you will notice the word buried each place people die and even the bible says that out of the dust we will return.

Jesus was buried so is king David, Abraham, his son Isaac, and Isaac's son Jacob.

I was just thinking about Isaiah 53:5....He was wounded for out Trangressions. And Bruised for our initiquites:...And the Chastisment of our Pease was laid upon him....And by his stripes we are healed....And another place he was touched by the feelings of our Infirmities....If we are not touched by the feeling of ppls infirmities we are not of God....If we have no feelings for a sick and a dying world we are not of God as God is love...We should wana help folks that are in need....I'm talking about wanting to help ppl with a Passion that burns like a fire in our Hearts.

.....If there is one attribute or one Spirit that defines God its Love.....Love fulfills the whole law and the Prophets as Jesus said....To love God with all our hearts and our neighbor as our selves. If you can do this you are not far from the Kingdom of God...Jesus said.

If any man believe in me and the works that i do, these works shall he do and greater then these will he do.. John 14:12....B/c i go to the Father...impling the seed sowing mode is only by the FATHER when the book is opened that we might all get a seed that we might birth Christ in us...The son of man....Resulting in a baby Christ being born in us....My lil Children of whom i travail in birth till Christ is formed in you....The Babes and Sucklings that Jesus said cd Praise God with a perfect praise..outta of the mouths of babes and sucklings thou has perfected PRAISE... Matthew 21:15....Then we will do the works Jesus did and greater.

.....As God is spirit and them that worship him must worhip him in Spirit and truth....Which answer to the babes and sucklings....Our new innerman the H.G. The Children of Promise....our new hearts and new spirits....An Israel of God...Christ in us the hope of Glory.

yes this message is for all believers and to understand more john 15 Jesus has also explained that if you abide in him he will abide in you.

he will give you strength to overcome because you have kept his word.

but you need to read you bible and watch daily by prayer or lest you fall into temptation

still you need to pray and commit to him daily.

Fake gods come from rebellion against GOD ALMIGHTY. Acts 19:26, 2Kings 19:18,

1Timothy 2:5,

The imagination of man; to ignore the obvious all around: that the earth, our very being, molecules that aren't created, only slightly manipulated by man, asks an answer beyond some comprehension.

The question itself seems to derive from rebellion. Isaiah 55:8, Isaiah 29:15,16, Psalms 94:5-15, Psalms 139, Job 38:2-41, Job 40:7-13,

GOD gave some of us very deeply inquisitive minds, to invent witty things, Proverbs 8:12, some build imaginative creations, that in ourselves deep questions of consciousness & core beginnings arise at times. In these gifted minds of power & powerful thinking, faults sometimes into arrogance of belief to define The CREATOR & make a beginning. Because in limited understanding we have beginning & perceivable ending in flesh. Yet in our core perceive there is more in the supernatural, outside the flesh. 1Corinthians 1:27,

We as humans are like gods ourselves we can choose to do mighty evil or good in our days, we can cause other's to cry in distress or rejoice with gladness but in the end we will all answer to GOD ALMIGHTY the maker of heaven & earth. Psalms 82, Leviticus 25:17, Romans 14:12,

It's also amazing that a creator would care so much for what HE has created that HE would still have a plan of redemption even after rebellion: John 3:16

May,

I am not sure what you are asking in your last statement. Are you referring to the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit or the cleansing effect of the blood of Jesus?

Is 'Wisdom of Solomon' 1:16 speaking about death? Is it referencing verses 12 & 13?
