John 1: 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2The same was in the beginning with God.
1 John 3:8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
1 John 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
We as christains say the word was manifested in a fleshly form. The word that was spoken to mary was manifested into a flesh and blood as a baby.
God Bless

I do not believe it to be the 'time" nor 'mark' However I Believe we are to be wise. Psalms 2:10,Teaching our children. Deuteronomy 11:19.The scripture does say 'hand or forehead" Revelations 13:11-18, please read around scripture for best context. Unless translation could mean arm, it's not clearly "the mark of the beast". I think the reason many are alarmed about this is
1st because of ingredient in vaccination, Psalms 106:29, Psalms 36-39
2nd whistle blowers coming forth with evidence of ungodly acts in testing, ingredient & side-affects
3rd the division it's caused & causing in Church & society
4th The Forcefulness of it all, losing ability to work, travel in some cases
5th The targeting of the T-cells, and cells that give space for communication with GOD, discovered by scientific study, (Reported 2009). Even having immediate side-affects
6th possibly most troubling for some: 1st P. C. developer bought pharmaceutical & Biotechnology ''vaccination' developer. Then filed for patent : WO/2020/060606 for: Cryptocurrency using body activity.
Please don't panic. 1 John 4:18,
Mark 13:22, Mark 13:5-37, several of those have yet to happen. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-13, could the great falling away be those who put all faith in rapture? Revelations 6:8-11, John 17:1-20, holdfast during trial Matthew 24:13, Matthew 24:4-51,
What is worship? Is it adoration, admiration, time given to, consuming, looking into intently, loving? Some feared computers were "the beast" the image of the beast? Cell phones or 'computer chips" The other day I wondered what it looks like to GOD seeing so many faces looking into devices, not up to HIM. Let us Worship only GOD ALMIGHTY, creator of Heaven & Earth.
Hopefully this is helpful in your research of Truth. I will pray for you also & sad for your loss & heaviness for loved ones being deceived. Peace to you

Hopefully these fully answer your question about Jesus, GOD & The HOLY Spirit.
holy [set apart by God] spirit wind or breath which ties in with John 4:24 which what God is Spirit and we were given His Gift, holy spirit. I like spirit better because ghost makes it sound mystical, that's just opinion. They are both the same.
Anti mask? Antivax? These five you've quoted Can't, in truth, be lumped together. Let's address the first 2.=
GOD made us in HIS image, we reflect HIS glory, HE didn't create humanity with masks. HE created us with an immune system. We are to go about with unveiled faces. We are to live by faith & not fear. Many discussions have been had on this site about these issues.
Revelations 21:8,
Ecclesiastes 37:11, John 2:13-17
USA We The People are the Governing Authority & by Duty, are required to right the "government" when they usurp their authority.
The last 3 labels Antilove,- charity, ect, clearly are not of Christ.
1John 4:18, 2 Timothy 3:15-17,
Isaiah 26:3,
Hopefully these are helpful in the heaviness you feel
I'm aware of is John the baptist, even Jesus Christ was not born with Spirit, John 1:32. When an individual gets
born again he receives that which he didn't have before holy spirit eternal life Gods Gift. Now some believe the
spirit and soul are the same.
Spirit life is eternal where as when you take your last breath that's the end of sou life , Genesis 2:7 God formed man, gave him shape then breathed into his nostrils breath of life and he became a living Soul
it is believed by some since God is Spirit that is what he breathed in man. In Genesis 1:27 God created man in His own
Image and In the Gospel of John 4:24 Jesus Christ said God Is Spirit. So man in the beginning was body soul and spirit
when man sinned in Genesis He lost his Most important part His Spiritual connection with God which was bought back by Jesus Christ.
With it we're well equipped.
If we think we can do anything more than that, We're taking it off!!
We would fail like Peter did when the Desciples were absent of the Holyspirit.
Redemption has been settled on the cross.
The Armor is to do exactly what it says it does.
Ephesians 6:11. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may BE ABLE TO STAND AGAINST THE " WILES " ( Schemes )OF THE DEVIL.
Satan doesn't come to you as a wolf! He comes to you as a wolf in SHEEP'S CLOTHING.
Satan is subtil. That's how he approached Eve. " Now the serpent was more " SUBTIL " than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. Genesis 3:1."
But the Lords sheep don't hear his voice!!
Jesus is the chief shepherd and those who shepherd his flock will show the fruit of the Spirit not the works of the flesh.
"No coveting the glory in Christ victory"
When someone is in the Spirit they want speak much of themselves, They will speak of the Work of Christ on the Cross.
Worshipping in truth and in Spirit is CAUSED by the Holyspirit.
Here's the only weapon we have, The word of God!!
And it's not given to you to use to bind Demons!!
It's given to you to minister the gospel and "IT" will divide asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, I believe That happens when you are QUICKENED by it..
Our flesh is also our enemy. The flesh can become super sensual when ministering in the flesh and lacking the spirit.
I'm Sorry but we're just going to have to agree to disagree on this one.
1 John 4:4. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
God bless
No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. [represents God wrapped in human flesh]
1 John 4:14
And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
John 14:7 [Jesus speaking]
"If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him."
given on pentecost is what man lost in Genesis his spiritual connection with God when he sinned. Now I'm fully
aware that some believe that the soul is spirit and spirit is soul. That being said I read in Genesis 2:7 Lord God formed
man dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul. In Genesis 3
when God said to man the day you eat of the tree thou shalt surely die he lost the most important part His Spiritual
connection with God. That is what was gotten back on pentecost when it became available to receive the Gift of Holy
therefore man again is a three part being. So I'm not at all saying we are perfect and have God inside us that's fallacy
and I notice someone else is buying that unfortunately. We were given freely His gift that we operate and the God
given enablements of that gift when walking in the faith of jesus Christ. Our biggest pain is the flesh so we have a
spiritual inner man who's there to help against the man of the flesh who's the antagonist. The battle is the mind, either
we walk on the word or we succumb to the flesh. Now the people who want argue this I have no time for but If someone
wants to reason I'm game. I was not raised with any religious belief system which I have found to be actually
beneficial because I had no preconceived ideology on what to believe about Gods Word. That being said I have done extensive studies for 45 years on what others have written and worked some of the original languages it was
translated from which is very enlightening to do. Because equally educated men have different beliefs on same subject matters. Again I believe what I believe, because in my life I have lost count of the
signs, miracles, and wonders that follow those that simply believe and act on It Is Written. God Bless
As we fellowship we come together to grow in all areas of the faith, At the moment we may not be able to agree on all things, But some day we will. But that doesn't mean we should yield to false doctrine or false teachers. In fact Revelation ch 2 and 3 we're being judged for suffering these false teachings to creep in.
Revelation 2:20. Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou "SUFFERETH" that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
Revelation 2:14. But I have a few things against thee, BECAUSE THOU HAST THERE ( THEM ) that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
Have you noticed The Lord is not condemning them for holding the doctrine of Balaam, He's condemning them for having those there that do!! And like so with jezebel.
Have you noticed when we're liberal we get alone with everyone and they get alone with us. But when truth and the straight and narrow way is presented then there comes the train wreck! You will see hate without a cause!!
Some blend in quite well, Some loose all self control and attack even the newcomers.
A believer that has been spiritualy born should bare fruit!! And the Spirit should CAUSE those who are in Christ to Love one another. Not join themselves to everyone who comes on the site and attack the faith! Agape/ Love for the brothern is something the flesh cannot do, .
Why is there so much fuss about doctrine but no fuss at all what sincere milk should cause you to do?
1 John 4:21. And this commandment have we from him, THAT HE WHO LOVETH GOD LOVE HIS BROTHER ALSO.
Have you noticed it doesn't say "SHOULD" Love his brother!! It's saying that Love given to Love God is "CAUSING" you to Love your brother also!!
GOD BLESS.
and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth or truly by the spirit. That was the first display of
Gods spirit working on the day of pentecost birthday of the age of Grace. Some say special gift some say doesn't exist anymore some say not needed. 1 Corinthians 12 : Paul went from gift to in verse 7 to manifestation of the gift, it is a great benefit to the believer spiritually it is personal prayer between you and father not to be done out loud or out
of order because all things of God are done decent and in order This is not to say that believers who don't speak in tongues don't believe or love God, that is biblically not sound. My bible says confess Romans 10:9+10 and believe in your heart and act on Gods Word. My understanding
Revelation 3:21 To him that overcometh, I will grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
Isaiah 66:1 Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool:
Revelation 21:1 And I saw a NEW HEAVEN..... the NEW dwelling place and the NEW throne of God..CHRIST IN YOU
Isaiah 66:1 ........where is the THE HOUSE ye built unto me
Hebrews 3:6 ...But Christ as a son over his own house, whose HOUSE WE ARE
Isaiah 66:1 .......and where is my place of REST.....The Father and His Son Jesus Christ and YOU are at REST TOGETHER in the NEW heaven, the NEW temple made without hands, the NEW place of worship ( John 4:19-22).
Cease from your works as God has ceased from his works, the WORKS were FINISHED at the cross.
The only LABOUR left is to bring man TO KNOWLEDGE
Isaiah 5:13 Therefore my people go into captivity, because they have no KNOWLEDGE: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitudes dried up with thirst.
Man believes salvation is his choice and not God's choice, contradicting scriptures. Man TEACHES this.
John 15:16 You have not chosen me but I have chosen you, and ordained you ..... Man does not TEACH this.
1 John 4:14 And we have seen and do testify that God sent the Son to be Saviour of the world. Man TEACHES the SON is going to fail saving the world because it's man's choice and not God's Choice. Man TEACHES this. ( Revelation 2:24)
1 Timothy 4:10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the SAVIOUR OF ALL MEN (even those that don't believe in this AGE ( Romans 9:18-21), specially those that believe (in the AGE).
1 Timothy 4:11 These things (saviour of all men) COMMAND AND TEACH. Many are called (to teach this) FEW are chosen.
Man TEACHES that those who don't CHOOSE Christ are going to HELL. Man TEACHES this. These TEACHINGS contradict all the above scriptures. ( Revelation 12:9).
Thy KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE.
Psalms 22:27 ALL the ENDS of the WORLD shall remember and TURN unto the LORD: and ALL the kindreds of the nation shall WORSHIP before thee.
Revelation 5:13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that setteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.
Man not only does man NOT teach this, they don't BELIEVE this is TRUE. ( Revelation 12:9)
1 Corinthians 15:28 And when all things have been subdued unto him. then shall the son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be ALL IN ALL.
Man does not TEACH this nor even believe it ( Revelation 12:9).
Further researching I found Bob Jones & John Paul Jackson both deceased had propheied about "a perfect storm" coming to America which both were uncomfortably accurate they explained it to be s combination of many elements of Government,financial, real storms, financial, racial unrest, fires in our streets. Jackson even spoke of the storm being about 300 miles wide "Dorian"?
Even with accurate prophecy please remember the WORD of GOD Jeremiah 27 & 28, Hosea 12:13, 1 Kings 13, Ezekiel 14:1-10, Matthew 10:41, Deuteronomy 18:15-22, John 4:44, Luke 4:24, * Deuteronomy 13:1-5, Joel 2:28, Acts 2:17-19
Hopefully all this is helpful in your research.
even if we walk in/near death we should not fear because GOD promises to be with us (that trust in HIM) Deuteronomy 31:8, Hebrews 13:5-6, John 14:16-21, Psalm 139:1-24, Psalms 37:40,
The rod; Proverbs 13:24, Job 21:9, Proverbs 29:15, Lamentations 3:1, many times references discipline, correction: Proverbs 22:15, Proverbs 23:14, Proverbs 3:12, Hebrews 12:4-8-11, Staff: Hebrews 11:21, Zechariah 8:4, Exodus 21:19, Numbers 22:27, 2 Samuel 3:29, Judges 6:21
Hopefully these scriptures help you with the HOLY Spirit to understand deeper. John 14:26, James 1:5
There is one aspect of reading the whole Bible & therefore gaining a working knowledge of its contents and another aspect of knowing all the intracacies of biblical Truth. I don't believe that on this side of Heaven, anyone can claim such knowledge, for often that runs very deep & we are not privy to all the circumstances, the people & the background in those accounts. Indeed, we need to always grow in the knowledge of the Word, but that takes time & shouldn't be an excuse to prohibit us from reaching out to others.
You have a very genuine love for the Lord & to share that love with others. Your testimony, your full belief in the Truth of the Gospel & the power therein ( Romans 1:16), & a readiness to speak with people where they're at in their lives, offering them the hope that you also have in Christ, is all you need. God's Spirit in you will surely delight to use you, for this is the very reason for His Coming ( John 16:8): to speak forth the Good News to those sitting in darkness ( Luke 1:79) - that you might be His mouthpiece to declare the Glory of God & of His Son & shine His Light. Yes, there will be testing times (Satan does not appreciate his dark evil domain being infused with God's Light), but "greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world" (1 John 4:4). Do you believe that brother? Then you can trust Him for not only that power to witness, but to minister to your family needs, job situation, rejection by others, & so on. Faith is indeed the victory that overcomes the world ( 1 John 5:4) & the Spirit in you knows this & will honour His Presence & His Word - that you will lack nothing & remain fearless in your walk in Christ. I leave this great Benediction with you - in Hebrews 13:20,21. Every blessing.
NO man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
The Holy Spirit is SPIRIT.
Jesus's skin color at birth would look like Mary's DNA contribution.
As with anyone, people who are exposed to sun too much have darker skin, than their normal skin color.
Another verse says that no man may look upon God and live.
No offense, but I feel people spend way too much time contemplating skin colors.
I'm a life long observer of skin/hair colors. Early in life I was an artist for a time. God formed us. Our hair color is the perfect color for skin tone. When people dye their hair, it never complements the skin color. Our skin has pigments in it, like paint; but somewhat luminescent.
For me, I can't see any beauty in tattoos. Art is for canvas & other mediums. It's a pity to think we can improve on what God made.
Skin color used to be beautiful, but now it's political. Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus.
Jesus Christ sent Paul ( Acts 9:15) to preach about his name. Jesus Christ
means in Hebrew "Jehovah is Salvation" ( John 3:16,17; Psalm 83:18)
so Paul was taking the lead and many other qualified men were appointed
to lead the congregations or "Churches KJV". 1 Timothy 3
According to Acts 2 man and woman fulfilled the prophecy at Joel 2:28
during a day of Pentecost ( Acts 2:16-18). All were filled with the holy spirit ( john 4:24)
were all at the same time speaking in tongues. (multitudes heard in his own language
Acts 2:1,3,6)
Paul was maybe trying to explain that the congregation is not that event.( 1 Corinthians 12:27-31)
that they must speak or prophecy one at a time. to keep the congregation in order. 1Corinthians 14:33.
However, because a man is the head of his wife. a wife remains silent in the congregation ( 1Tim. 2:12).
if she wants to ask a question about something. she should not become authoritative within
the congregation or church (if she doesn't understand something, she should go to her husband).
1 Corinthians 14:35
Ephesians 5:21-24
if someone is single. then the head would be Jesus Christ because he is the head of the man (Jesus Christ has appointed qualified men to shepherd the congregation John 21:17. if a woman is single or not married, she can
go to the one taking the lead, and they can pray for her.
James 5:14-16
1 Samuel 1:9-18; Luke 10:38-42;
Acts 20:28; 1 Timothy 3
Regarding woman and head covering, according to 1 Corinthians 11:5,8;
if her husband is present, she covers her head if she is preaching or praying.
if her husband is not present and she preaches and prophecies or prays to God,
then she should cover her head as a sign of authority because of the angels.
this is what the scripture says. I can't tell you anything other
1 Corinthians 11:2-3;8-10; 1Tim. 2:12
1 Corinthians 11:1,2,16 "keeping the order as delivered to them"
"we have no custom of being contentious about"
not from men or woman.
But if the bible is not quoted from the bible;
would wisdom still be of much value?
Jesus quoted his fathers words perfectly ( John 8). and the prophets
spoke from God ( Psalm 83:18)
Who is much wiser? Who is wiser to instruct mankind?
God ( Psalm 83:18) and his Son?
2 Timothy 3:16,17;
2 Peter 1:20,21 (holy spirit John 4:24)
John 17:3
John 14:6-28
Psalm 1:1-3
or
Men and many books?
Jeremiah 10:23
Romans 3:23
Ecclesiastes 12:12-14
Psalms. 146:3, 4
Hope you like
these scriptures.
An unsaved person told me yesterday he was told "there is nothing like rapture" Is it true?
You are replying to a comment by "Victor Anyanwu"
Hello Victor,
1 Thessalonians 4:13-17
verse 16: these Dead in Christ shall rise first. for example:
1. ( John 11:11) Lazarus he died again
2. ( Acts 7:55,59, 60) Stephen after saying this, he fell asleep in death. (the vision he saw was in heaven)
3. ( 1 Corinthians 15:6) 500 seen Jesus appear after his death. but some of
them died.
4. Some of Jesus apostles died of old age, most died under roman oppression (by the "ad." "c.e." Jews)
(they were put in prison like Paul as you brought out in Philippians 1), some died in captivity.
Verse 17: Those alive or remain will like Jesus will go to heaven.
( Revelation 14:3/ 144,000). notice the first died. if the second is to be caught up together with them.
they will have to die from flesh...to be taken from earth. ( Acts 1:9,10; Revelation 20)
so no... rapture is not a word in the bible. when Jesus was impaled the scripture said
after that his spirit ( Matthew 27:50 invisible/ john 4:24) yielded up. no human can see the spirit.
( Jas. 2:26)
Hopefully this helps
Hello Victor,
Is the Holy Spirit a person?
Jehovah's is a spirit ( Psalm 83:18; John 4:24). and he made his Angels spirits ( psalm 104:4);
and he blew his spirit into Adam nostril "the breath of life." when a men or human dies, his breath goes out. and the spirit returns to God (not the flesh itself.. because the body is flesh made from dust - Genesis 2:7).
the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, these qualities is his spirit. this he has created men in his image to display these qualities to take care of the earth. -
Galatians 5:22,23
According to Matthew 28:18-20 Jesus said go therefore baptizing in the name of the father, the son and the holy spirit (the accurate term is holy spirit because John 4:24 accurately says spirit). Also, Jesus is not God ( John 5:19) but he was raised up as a spirit again; and he is a Angel.- John 14:28
Point: God can give his spirit to anyone to serve his purpose- Luke 1:35. if we worship God, we must worship with spirit and truth- john 4:24. anyone who want to worship in truth...should believe in the word of God ( 2 Timothy 3:16,17). by this God will give his spirit and truth will speak.
To illustrate: person 1, person 2, and person 3 are all different people. God will and can give his spirit to person 2 to carry out a particular task. God may want person 2 to completes that task fully. he may use person 3 or person 1 to do something completely different or accomplish the same purpose. (so yes the spirit basically belongs to God, because he is a spirit and the source of distributing that spirit to accomplish his purpose.- Genesis 1:1,26,27 ). no human can force God to do this or that. he is the boss of the spirit.- Isaiah 43:11-13
hope these scriptures help.
