No matter how tired you may feel. Be prepared. We don't know the time or when , but Jesus is coming. May God bless everyone !
Thanks for reply, There's several problems with that view.
One is Jesus said in Luke 19:42. Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in ""THIS THY DAY,"" the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
#1 Jesus said "THIS THY DAY". How could he be expecting them to recognize a that haven't come yet.
#2 Jesus said ""The things which belong unto thy peace!"" Revelation can hardly be called "The things which belong to their peace.
#3 Why would he hold them accountable for knowing the time of his visitation if he hadn't visited them yet. And because of it he tell them in Verses:43-44. For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; BECAUSE THOU KNOWEST NOT THE TIME OF THY VISITATION.
I also have it as you said, as the day Christ came in on the donkey, The important thing is It was prophesied as 69 weeks and confirmed by the days given as tho it was meant to be counted!!
And it seems they were held accountable for not knowing!!
Luke 19:41-44. And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
Saying, IF THOU HADST KNOWN, EVEN THOU, AT LEAST IN ( THIS THY DAY, )THE THINGS WHICH BELONG UNTO THY PEACE! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
They should have known by the information given in Daniel.
Everything about the 69th weeks was fulfilled TO THE DAY!! So the details in the 7th week will be fulfilled as accurate.
The Gospel is meant to share not store up to ourselves.
We need to take ownership.
Here is two verses I will attempt to draw a picture of the way we "play Christianity"
Consider these two verses in 1 John and James. next the other posted scriptures and then I will explain where we need to take ownership. So please bare with me.
1 John 3:17. and James 2:15-16.
Luke 19:10. For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
2 Corinthians 5:15. And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.
Matthew 5:14-15. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
Ephesians 2:10. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
I'm sure we're familiar with the slothful servant in the parable in
Luke 19:20-26.
NOW YO MY POINT.
We complain so much especially here in the US of America. about the spiritual decay and gross sin dating back to Slavery!! AND ALL THAT MATTERS IS WE HAVE THE GOSPEL STORED IN OUR HEART. Brother and Sisters getting it out undefiled should be top priority to the lost. In a way it parallels with the examples presented in
1 John 3:17. and James 2:15-16.
It's so much we all can do together if what's in our heart generated work rather a SHOW of Holiness.
WHAT'S THE POINT REASONING SCRIPTURE TO SOMEONE ABSENT OF THE SPIRIT?
THEY NEED IN THEM WHAT'S WORKING IN US!!
1 Corinthians 2:14. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
I did not mean to imply what you listed was wrong, but I guess a lot of it did not go along with what you posted, I do apologize. The countries you listed may come to be, but I do not know or try to figure out what countries will be involved.
As far as what I can say about the future, I feel it will be different than what many teach. I believe, as far as the countries that will be united with the beast we will not know until they are set up. I believe the beast is not a country but an angelic being from the bottomless pit along with the false prophet, with the power of Satan who will rule over those countries and the world.
When Satan is cast down all changes, what that will look like who knows but it will not be pretty.
Babel and Babylon are the same but translated differently, Babel was the start of sun worship, the host of heaven worship, and sanctified prostitution and human sacrifices. Babel started what God was constantly dealing with Israel, the gods of the countries around them.
So, my feelings are that Babylon at the end times must have similar religious attributes because of what is said in ( Revelation 17:6), ( Revelation 18:24) and ( Revelation 19:2) whether the blood and deaths of the prophets, saints, and martyrs of Jesus are from the beginning of Babel or during the 3.5 years of tribulation, that is if this Babylon carries out the punishment for not taking the mark, because many of us if we are still here, will face death.
This is probably not what you are asking for, sorry if not. If I may suggest something, not saying I know anything but it may help if you want to study it. ( Luke 21:20-24) you listed in your first post you said if the U.S. was taken out it would be easy for Israel to be invaded, true but, when Jesus rode into Jerusalem on Nisan 10 He cried and said, ( Luke 19:41-44). You may decide Jesus, in both cases was talking of the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple in 70 AD, not end times.
The first consideration is the realization that one of God's greatest desires is the salvation of all mankind. God's desire is clearly stated.
The Great Commission in Matthew 28:19 says, Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.
This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth ( 1 Timothy 2:3-4).
It is God's desire that all should be saved. He loves you so much that He gave His one and only son as a ransom to pay for our sins.
Why pray
We should, we must, pray for the Salvation of others. What we are doing is asking God to move in their lives. Jesus said that He came to "seek and to save the lost" ( Luke 19:10). Jesus does the seeking and the Holy Spirit opens their heart. If you want to see someone's heart healed and their eternal future secured, you must be praying. Pray helps open the door to Jesus. Jesus taught that we "ought always to pray and not lose heart" ( Luke 18:1).
Why are so many still unsaved
If it is God's desire that all should be saved, then why are so many people still unsaved? 2 Corinthians 4:4 tells us the god of this world [the devil] has blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
Do not give up praying for others. While God will not force a person to accept and love Him, He can and does work hard to bring them to Himself by giving the person ideas, thoughts, dreams, visions, laborers to talk with them, and designing circumstances in their life to bring them face to face with the love of God.
In prayer, keep breaking Satan's power in their life, binding Satan, and claiming their salvation. Continuous prayer is powerful and faith does not give up. 1 Corinthians 13
Everything was to be done at the appointed time. Jesus knew they would try to Make him king before the appointed time.
John 6:15. When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone. But when the time came he didn't only allow himself to be presented as king he arranged it.
Luke 19:30-31. Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.
And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
And then...
Luke 19:37-40. And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, ""THE WHOLE MULTITUDE OF THE DISCIPLES"" began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
saying Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
Fulfilling Zechariah 9:9. Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
A time the Jews should have known from the many prophesies. And he met all the criteria
Daniel even gave them a time.
Daniel 9:25. Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem UNTO THE MESSIAH THE PRINCE SHALL BE SEVEN WEEKS, AND THREESCORE AND TWO WEEKS: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
The entire chapter of Luke 21 is a section of scripture that deals with the preaching of Jesus in Jerusalem, which begins at Luke 19:28 and ends at Luke 21:38. Chapter 21 can be broken down into several parts as such:
Luke 21:1-4 gives us the proper understanding of giving.
Luke 21:5-9, the prophecy concerning the temple.
Luke 21:10-19, the persecution against believers.
Luke 21:20-28, the prophecies of judgment against Jerusalem.
Luke 21:29-33, the parable of the fig tree.
Luke 21:34-36, the precaution concerning the last days.
Luke 21:37-38, the Passover week schedule.
There is a lot of information in Luke Chapter 21. Is there a particular verse or verses you would like to have some clarification on?
Jesus, in this passage, identifies Zaccheus as a 'son of Abraham' - but which one?
Abraham had two sons, Ishmael (the son by works, who was cast out) and Isaac (the son of promise) by faith. It is the second, Isaac, and Jesus also says that 'this day, salvation has come to this house' ie Zaccheus has been born again - evidenced by his change of heart/lifestyle.
This was Jesus' mission to the Jews, and ultimately, the entire world, to show them the necessity for spiritual rebirth in order to be right with God. This is why he told Nicodemus (a teacher of the law) 'You must be born again'.
Jesus told the woman at the well, 'Those who worship God must worship Him in spirit and in truth' - this can only happen when a person is 'born of the spirit' i.e. is born again.
Carleton Jesus is the Son of God a few more scripture refrences Part 2 - In Reply on Genesis 14 - 4 years ago

"The first man Adam is of the earth, earthy: the second man Jesus is the Lord from heaven" 1 Corinthians 15:47
"He can not deny himself" 2 Timothy 2:13
"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and forever" Hebrews 13:8
"For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world: but that the world through him might be saved" John 3:17

"And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. This signifying what death he should die" John 12:32-33
John Chapter 19- whole chapter
"In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins" Ephesians 1:7
"Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood" Revelation 1:5
"Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver or gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot" 1 Peter 1:18-19
"And he is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world" 1 John 2:2
"Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it" Acts 2:24
Luke 19:27 is a warning to those who would oppose Jesus Christ. The parable illustrates Jesus ascension to his Father's throne until the time he returns to establish his kingdom. In verse 14 he said, "But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us." Likewise most of our world stands in rebellion against the coming Lord and King Jesus Christ.
Psalm 2 prophesies, "Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel." (v2:9) and, "Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him." (v2:12)
Let's discuss sin. The main reason God sent his only begotten (special) Son Jesus into this world, was to save us from sin. St. John 3: 16-17, For God so loved the world, that He sent his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved. What are we saved from? We can be saved from sin. Jesus is the light of the world. Verse 18: Every one that doeth evil hateth the light..." Verse 36. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
God is perfect, holy, loving, longsuffereing and excellent. Sin cannot and will not be in his presence. Jesus is perfect and he tells us in St. Matthew 5:48: Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect. When Jesus tells us to be perfect, he furnishes the Holy Ghost power for us to be perfect. Believe in Jesus, practice His doctrine of righteousness each and every day. We must exercise faith in God. Without faith it is impossible to please God. The Bible also tells us, "without faith we sin". We must sincerely love and trust God with all our mind, body, soul and strength.
Jesus told the adulterous woman, "Go in peace and sin no more." We are saved when we remove sin from our lives. St. Luke 14:33: ...There is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. Repentance is the key. We must stop sinning and live righteously. Every eye shall see Jesus, but none but the pure in heart shall see God. St. Luke 19:10: For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. We are lost without Christ in our lives.
St. John 8:24: ...Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. What is sin? It is trangressing the law of God. The ten commandments tells us what we cannot do. Ephesians 4:24...Put on the new man,
Hopefully I can help with a couple of your questions. The KJV is the best, oldest, version of the Bible we have. One thing that is quiet awesome of this site is when you look in the 1611 KJV section. They have every single page photographed, and posted here, of an original 1611 KJV Bible. Very cool. Many of the newer versions have had things removed and words changed. As the KJV is the oldest English Bible. So with just a couple of the verses you have. In Luke 19:23 the word they made "bank" was the original Greek word "trapeza" transliterated from Greek. This word means "a table or stool" or "a table or stand of a money changer to count money". The word is used thirteen times, in the New Testament, for "table" and just once for "bank". Seems ok instead of saying maybe "my money onto the money changers table". The other one is Isaiah 11:6. It has always been "wolf also shall dwell with the lamb". As you have "the young lion and the fatling together" in the same verse. Along with "the lion shall eat straw like the ox" in the next verse. The lion and the lamb thing was actually started in a song way back and got popular. Spreading but it was always "wolf also shall dwell with the lamb".
Thank you for your reply. The reason I ask is that in mark 2:22 says no one puts new wine in old bottles wasn't always wine skins? Also in luke 19:23 uses the word bank "Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury" Did they have banks when they translated 1611 kjv? Also in Isaiah 11:6 The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, wasn't it always "the lion shall down with the lamb? And the our father prayer in Luke 11:2, now says "Our Father which art in heaven" wasn't it always "our father WHO art in heaven"? I have many more discrepancies.
I recently returned to reading my Bible again and I appreciate the way you break down the Chapter explaining each Verse. I raised was as a Christian with my Grandmother and I believe in Elohim and that his Son Yashua did for our sins an in these last days I live for him.
I intend to get baptised as soon as I can regardless of this lockdown.
May Elohim continue to bless you in Yashua's name.
Praying For Family and Others on Jeremiah 34:19 - 4 years ago
When we begin to pray in earnest for family and friends; it feels weird. We don't have confidence in our abilities. Satan doesn't want you to pray! Fight against FEELINGS. The first consideration is the realization that one of God's greatest desires is the salvation of all mankind. God's desire is clearly stated.
The Great Commission in Matthew 28:19 says, Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.
This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth ( 1 Timothy 2:3-4).
It is God's desire that all should be saved. He loves you so much that He gave His one and only son as a ransom to pay for our sins.
Overcoming Spiritual Blindness & Deafness.
We should, we must, pray for the Salvation of others. What we are doing is asking God to move in their lives. Jesus said that He came to "seek and to save the lost" ( Luke 19:10). Jesus does the seeking and the Holy Spirit opens their heart. If you want to see someone's heart healed and their eternal future secured, you must be praying. Pray helps open the door to Jesus. Jesus taught that we "ought always to pray and not lose heart" ( Luke 18:1).
Turn off all the media, so we can pray and hear The Holy Spirit.
If it is God's desire that all should be saved, then why are so many people still unsaved? 2 Corinthians 4:4 tells us the god of this world [the devil] has blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
You can watch some spiritual warfare videos on YouTube. I'll post on that later. Let's get our families freed and saved.
30. Peace - "For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility," Eph. 2:14
31. Prophet - "And Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his relatives and in his own household." Mark 6:4
32. Redeemer - "And as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last He will take His stand on the earth." Job 19:25
33. Risen Lord - "that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures." 1 Cor. 15:3-4
34. Rock - "For they drank from the spiritual Rock that followed them, and the Rock was Christ." 1 Cor. 10:4
35. Sacrifice for Our Sins - "This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins." 1 John 4:10
36. Savior - "For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:11
37. Son of Man - "For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost." Luke 19:10
38. Son of the Most High - "He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David." Luke 1:32
39. Supreme Creator Over All - "By Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities-- all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. Col. 1:16-17
Aside from Luke 19:13, where does it say to live our lives, bury the dead, and continue on until Christ comes back? Meaning, we should not put life on hold... we still have to work, learn, witness, etc.
The Holy Spirit will not be as active. There will be evangelizing by other people who missed the rapture.
The problem is the Antichrist getting his one world money system going; the Beast,
One world church and one world Leader: him. It's going to lead to receiving a Mark in your hand or forehead; to access buying power with your funds. I'd read Forbes. They are the ones pushing this one world calendar that's been in the news. Google that.
Bibles will be outlawed. Guns, I don't know. You'll have to Buy ammo now.
If you think all the current rioting is bad now; multiply that by 1000.
It was reported that in Israel someone re-did all the Palestinians names on maps, renamed to Israel properties. Genesis has the recorded deeds to the land. It is theirs.
No one has taken responsibility for that. It could be Russia & Syria that did that to further turn the world against Israel. Read JerusalemPost newspaper online; daily.
Prophesy teaches that USA will do something that will anger the whole world. That near the end, that Russia will be obliterated by God. China is working with Russia, Syria, Iran. Iran wants to take over Iraq. China is acting like they're the Antichrist but that's not true. Antichrist will most likely have Palestinian ancestry but deny it. He may not be married; doesn't have time for women?
Whatever happens it will happen quickly like it is now. Genesis 6:3, Luke 19:42, Galatians 6;16-17, 1 Peter 3:20; Psalms 78:39 to end. Read all that Bob.
Why would any of you neglect to be born again and risk going to hell, you and your family?? Can you watch yours or someone else's child be beheaded? If you don't take the Mark, you'll be beheaded. If you do take it, God will have to send you to hell.
What are you thinking? Can anyone hide from God and Antichrist? All this you see is going to be BURNED. 2 Peter 3:10-11. It'll make global warming look like a marshmallow roast. Super quakes, Wormwood Asteroid/star, super volcanoes!
Thank you Chris for the very helpful, thorough and expansive answer to my question. Truly appreciated and I do believe it gives me closure to my question. I know it is faith that is dominant in following Jesus. At the same time, when doing a deeper study questions do come to awareness and while my faith was not disturbed I could not get closure on my reasoning with it being an assumption that it was Mary's lineage in Luke 19:23.
Jesus said otherwise in the Bible. Luke 19:10, Acts 17:26, John 12:46 - he came to save the lost of all people, not just who you claim are your 'own people'. Why do you care about skin color so much? Why not eye color? Why not height or weight? We're all individuals of equal value, not members of fictional political tribes. Satan is deceiving people into believing they are unequal and trying to divide everyone and some are believing the lie.
Lamentations 4:7 - you know Jesus was from Nazareth, right? This says they're white so that counterbalances the assumption that because someone's hair is like wool it must be black. Other races can have wool-like hair too. There's plenty of hair variety within the races.
The virus is a diversion for the antichrist who comes before the Lord Jesus and the great revival to save many souls.God bless everyone keep the faith put on the armour of God the battle is closer than ever before.
Jesus already said exactly who he came for. Luke 19:10, Mark 2:17. He came for the lost and sinners. Who is lost and a sinner? Romans 3:23 - Everyone. So, Jesus came for everyone- that's exactly what the Bible says. Jesus gave a firm warning to those who try to deceive others by twisting or denying what Jesus said: Mark 8:38, 1 John 2:22-23.
Hi, Pastor, I'm a sheep. In response to your comment & questions. I picture Jesus over turning the tables Matthew 21:12 , I believe it wasn't just for that day. Matthew 21:13 , TODAY some ''Churches'' have books, merchandise, purchasable resources, purchasable Bible studies, expensive retreats, concerts etc. It is very difficult for some people to afford these, therefore leaving several out of the ''family'' events. James 1:27
When someone is in need, they have no choice to be in subjection to usury or do without. Matthew 25:31-46
I hope this is helpful & opens your heart to another perspective.
If you don t give ten five ones it shall be taken away. If you give and put from thou bank you shall get ten pounds. Loose the colt and bring him to Jesus. Anyone wants to know let him know it s for Jesus. He is calm and gentle. He shall protect and prosper. Be well in Jesus name. God will always be here for you. God loves you and wants to be here for you. Pray in Jesus mighty name
30 Saying, Go ye into the village over against you in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither. And when he sit on the colt which was never sit on, The colt didn't buck, jump or nothing, he was very calm. I tried riding a horse once, bare back. He left me between the heaven and the earth and I landed on my butt.
Thanks for reply, There's several problems with that view.
One is Jesus said in Luke 19:42. Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in ""THIS THY DAY,"" the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
#1 Jesus said "THIS THY DAY". How could he be expecting them to recognize a that haven't come yet.
#2 Jesus said ""The things which belong unto thy peace!"" Revelation can hardly be called "The things which belong to their peace.
#3 Why would he hold them accountable for knowing the time of his visitation if he hadn't visited them yet. And because of it he tell them in Verses:43-44. For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; BECAUSE THOU KNOWEST NOT THE TIME OF THY VISITATION.
That happened in 70 AD.
God bless.
I also have it as you said, as the day Christ came in on the donkey, The important thing is It was prophesied as 69 weeks and confirmed by the days given as tho it was meant to be counted!!
And it seems they were held accountable for not knowing!!
Luke 19:41-44. And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
Saying, IF THOU HADST KNOWN, EVEN THOU, AT LEAST IN ( THIS THY DAY, )THE THINGS WHICH BELONG UNTO THY PEACE! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
They should have known by the information given in Daniel.
Everything about the 69th weeks was fulfilled TO THE DAY!! So the details in the 7th week will be fulfilled as accurate.
God bless.
What comes out the mouth comes from the heart,
The Gospel is meant to share not store up to ourselves.
We need to take ownership.
Here is two verses I will attempt to draw a picture of the way we "play Christianity"
Consider these two verses in 1 John and James. next the other posted scriptures and then I will explain where we need to take ownership. So please bare with me.
1 John 3:17. and James 2:15-16.
Luke 19:10. For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
2 Corinthians 5:15. And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.
Matthew 5:14-15. Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
Ephesians 2:10. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
I'm sure we're familiar with the slothful servant in the parable in
Luke 19:20-26.
NOW YO MY POINT.
We complain so much especially here in the US of America. about the spiritual decay and gross sin dating back to Slavery!! AND ALL THAT MATTERS IS WE HAVE THE GOSPEL STORED IN OUR HEART. Brother and Sisters getting it out undefiled should be top priority to the lost. In a way it parallels with the examples presented in
1 John 3:17. and James 2:15-16.
It's so much we all can do together if what's in our heart generated work rather a SHOW of Holiness.
WHAT'S THE POINT REASONING SCRIPTURE TO SOMEONE ABSENT OF THE SPIRIT?
THEY NEED IN THEM WHAT'S WORKING IN US!!
1 Corinthians 2:14. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
Love is not hiding the Gospel it's presenting it.
God bless.
I did not mean to imply what you listed was wrong, but I guess a lot of it did not go along with what you posted, I do apologize. The countries you listed may come to be, but I do not know or try to figure out what countries will be involved.
As far as what I can say about the future, I feel it will be different than what many teach. I believe, as far as the countries that will be united with the beast we will not know until they are set up. I believe the beast is not a country but an angelic being from the bottomless pit along with the false prophet, with the power of Satan who will rule over those countries and the world.
When Satan is cast down all changes, what that will look like who knows but it will not be pretty.
Babel and Babylon are the same but translated differently, Babel was the start of sun worship, the host of heaven worship, and sanctified prostitution and human sacrifices. Babel started what God was constantly dealing with Israel, the gods of the countries around them.
So, my feelings are that Babylon at the end times must have similar religious attributes because of what is said in ( Revelation 17:6), ( Revelation 18:24) and ( Revelation 19:2) whether the blood and deaths of the prophets, saints, and martyrs of Jesus are from the beginning of Babel or during the 3.5 years of tribulation, that is if this Babylon carries out the punishment for not taking the mark, because many of us if we are still here, will face death.
This is probably not what you are asking for, sorry if not. If I may suggest something, not saying I know anything but it may help if you want to study it. ( Luke 21:20-24) you listed in your first post you said if the U.S. was taken out it would be easy for Israel to be invaded, true but, when Jesus rode into Jerusalem on Nisan 10 He cried and said, ( Luke 19:41-44). You may decide Jesus, in both cases was talking of the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple in 70 AD, not end times.
God bless,

Luke 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
The Great Commission in Matthew 28:19 says, Go therefore and make disciples of all nations.
This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth ( 1 Timothy 2:3-4).
It is God's desire that all should be saved. He loves you so much that He gave His one and only son as a ransom to pay for our sins.
Why pray
We should, we must, pray for the Salvation of others. What we are doing is asking God to move in their lives. Jesus said that He came to "seek and to save the lost" ( Luke 19:10). Jesus does the seeking and the Holy Spirit opens their heart. If you want to see someone's heart healed and their eternal future secured, you must be praying. Pray helps open the door to Jesus. Jesus taught that we "ought always to pray and not lose heart" ( Luke 18:1).
Why are so many still unsaved
If it is God's desire that all should be saved, then why are so many people still unsaved? 2 Corinthians 4:4 tells us the god of this world [the devil] has blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
Do not give up praying for others. While God will not force a person to accept and love Him, He can and does work hard to bring them to Himself by giving the person ideas, thoughts, dreams, visions, laborers to talk with them, and designing circumstances in their life to bring them face to face with the love of God.
In prayer, keep breaking Satan's power in their life, binding Satan, and claiming their salvation. Continuous prayer is powerful and faith does not give up. 1 Corinthians 13
I will add to this tomorrow. Mishael
Everything was to be done at the appointed time. Jesus knew they would try to Make him king before the appointed time.
John 6:15. When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone. But when the time came he didn't only allow himself to be presented as king he arranged it.
Luke 19:30-31. Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.
And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
And then...
Luke 19:37-40. And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, ""THE WHOLE MULTITUDE OF THE DISCIPLES"" began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
saying Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
Fulfilling Zechariah 9:9. Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
A time the Jews should have known from the many prophesies. And he met all the criteria
Daniel even gave them a time.
Daniel 9:25. Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem UNTO THE MESSIAH THE PRINCE SHALL BE SEVEN WEEKS, AND THREESCORE AND TWO WEEKS: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
But they couldn't perceive. Matthew 13:14.
as Ron stated.
And it seems they were held accountable in
Luke 19:41-44.
Goodmorning and God bless.
The entire chapter of Luke 21 is a section of scripture that deals with the preaching of Jesus in Jerusalem, which begins at Luke 19:28 and ends at Luke 21:38. Chapter 21 can be broken down into several parts as such:
Luke 21:1-4 gives us the proper understanding of giving.
Luke 21:5-9, the prophecy concerning the temple.
Luke 21:10-19, the persecution against believers.
Luke 21:20-28, the prophecies of judgment against Jerusalem.
Luke 21:29-33, the parable of the fig tree.
Luke 21:34-36, the precaution concerning the last days.
Luke 21:37-38, the Passover week schedule.
There is a lot of information in Luke Chapter 21. Is there a particular verse or verses you would like to have some clarification on?
-
Two thousand years, or so, ago
Jerusalem rejoiced
for all the future hopes they had
at last were being voiced.
-
The King had ridden into town;
a donkey was His ride.
They laid their clothes before Him and
"Hosanna!" they all cried.
-
To make His travel smoother, they
put palms along His way.
To them, these branches symbolized
a victory that day.
-
They hoped that He would free them from
the Romans' rule for good.
It's true, He came to free them, but
they all misunderstood.
-
They had it wrong when He once asked
"Who do you say I am?"
They all were thinking lion when
He came to be a lamb.
-
When He was crucified, then rose,
there was no gleeful throng.
They thought their hopes were ended, and
Thank God that they were wrong.
-
The King for which they paved the way
with branches where He trod
had paved the way for all our souls
to reconcile with God.
-
We just began to have a chance
to enter Heaven's gate.
The King has paved the way for us,
so let us celebrate.

(See Matthew 21:1-11, Mark 11:1-10, Luke 19:28-38, John 12:12-16)
Abraham had two sons, Ishmael (the son by works, who was cast out) and Isaac (the son of promise) by faith. It is the second, Isaac, and Jesus also says that 'this day, salvation has come to this house' ie Zaccheus has been born again - evidenced by his change of heart/lifestyle.
This was Jesus' mission to the Jews, and ultimately, the entire world, to show them the necessity for spiritual rebirth in order to be right with God. This is why he told Nicodemus (a teacher of the law) 'You must be born again'.
Jesus told the woman at the well, 'Those who worship God must worship Him in spirit and in truth' - this can only happen when a person is 'born of the spirit' i.e. is born again.
"his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh" Romans 8:3
"The first man Adam is of the earth, earthy: the second man Jesus is the Lord from heaven" 1 Corinthians 15:47
"He can not deny himself" 2 Timothy 2:13
"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and forever" Hebrews 13:8
"For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world: but that the world through him might be saved" John 3:17
"This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acception, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners" 1 Timothy 1:15
"For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost" Luke 19:10
"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved" Acts 4:12
"And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. This signifying what death he should die" John 12:32-33
John Chapter 19- whole chapter
"In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins" Ephesians 1:7
"Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood" Revelation 1:5
"Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver or gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot" 1 Peter 1:18-19
"And he is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world" 1 John 2:2
"Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it" Acts 2:24
1 Corinthians Chapter 15 whole chapter
Psalm 2 prophesies, "Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel." (v2:9) and, "Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him." (v2:12)
God is perfect, holy, loving, longsuffereing and excellent. Sin cannot and will not be in his presence. Jesus is perfect and he tells us in St. Matthew 5:48: Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father in heaven is perfect. When Jesus tells us to be perfect, he furnishes the Holy Ghost power for us to be perfect. Believe in Jesus, practice His doctrine of righteousness each and every day. We must exercise faith in God. Without faith it is impossible to please God. The Bible also tells us, "without faith we sin". We must sincerely love and trust God with all our mind, body, soul and strength.
Jesus told the adulterous woman, "Go in peace and sin no more." We are saved when we remove sin from our lives. St. Luke 14:33: ...There is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth. Repentance is the key. We must stop sinning and live righteously. Every eye shall see Jesus, but none but the pure in heart shall see God. St. Luke 19:10: For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost. We are lost without Christ in our lives.
St. John 8:24: ...Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. What is sin? It is trangressing the law of God. The ten commandments tells us what we cannot do. Ephesians 4:24...Put on the new man,
Hopefully I can help with a couple of your questions. The KJV is the best, oldest, version of the Bible we have. One thing that is quiet awesome of this site is when you look in the 1611 KJV section. They have every single page photographed, and posted here, of an original 1611 KJV Bible. Very cool. Many of the newer versions have had things removed and words changed. As the KJV is the oldest English Bible. So with just a couple of the verses you have. In Luke 19:23 the word they made "bank" was the original Greek word "trapeza" transliterated from Greek. This word means "a table or stool" or "a table or stand of a money changer to count money". The word is used thirteen times, in the New Testament, for "table" and just once for "bank". Seems ok instead of saying maybe "my money onto the money changers table". The other one is Isaiah 11:6. It has always been "wolf also shall dwell with the lamb". As you have "the young lion and the fatling together" in the same verse. Along with "the lion shall eat straw like the ox" in the next verse. The lion and the lamb thing was actually started in a song way back and got popular. Spreading but it was always "wolf also shall dwell with the lamb".
Hope that helps some. God Bless.
I intend to get baptised as soon as I can regardless of this lockdown.
May Elohim continue to bless you in Yashua's name.

Overcoming Spiritual Blindness & Deafness.

Turn off all the media, so we can pray and hear The Holy Spirit.
If it is God's desire that all should be saved, then why are so many people still unsaved? 2 Corinthians 4:4 tells us the god of this world [the devil] has blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

Thank you!
The problem is the Antichrist getting his one world money system going; the Beast,
One world church and one world Leader: him. It's going to lead to receiving a Mark in your hand or forehead; to access buying power with your funds. I'd read Forbes. They are the ones pushing this one world calendar that's been in the news. Google that.
Bibles will be outlawed. Guns, I don't know. You'll have to Buy ammo now.
If you think all the current rioting is bad now; multiply that by 1000.
It was reported that in Israel someone re-did all the Palestinians names on maps, renamed to Israel properties. Genesis has the recorded deeds to the land. It is theirs.
No one has taken responsibility for that. It could be Russia & Syria that did that to further turn the world against Israel. Read JerusalemPost newspaper online; daily.
Prophesy teaches that USA will do something that will anger the whole world. That near the end, that Russia will be obliterated by God. China is working with Russia, Syria, Iran. Iran wants to take over Iraq. China is acting like they're the Antichrist but that's not true. Antichrist will most likely have Palestinian ancestry but deny it. He may not be married; doesn't have time for women?
Whatever happens it will happen quickly like it is now. Genesis 6:3, Luke 19:42, Galatians 6;16-17, 1 Peter 3:20; Psalms 78:39 to end. Read all that Bob.
Why would any of you neglect to be born again and risk going to hell, you and your family?? Can you watch yours or someone else's child be beheaded? If you don't take the Mark, you'll be beheaded. If you do take it, God will have to send you to hell.
What are you thinking? Can anyone hide from God and Antichrist? All this you see is going to be BURNED. 2 Peter 3:10-11. It'll make global warming look like a marshmallow roast. Super quakes, Wormwood Asteroid/star, super volcanoes!

Lamentations 4:7 - you know Jesus was from Nazareth, right? This says they're white so that counterbalances the assumption that because someone's hair is like wool it must be black. Other races can have wool-like hair too. There's plenty of hair variety within the races.
When someone is in need, they have no choice to be in subjection to usury or do without. Matthew 25:31-46
