Luke 5:1-11
Can we get saved by a person or named church denomination?
Acts 4:12 - "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."
John 14:6 - "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
Salvation can not come from another other (pastors, priests, religion, etc) but only from Christ Jesus.
But I have good news for you today!
John 3:15-18
"That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave 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. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."
Wow, isn't that beautiful? But you may ask yourself, "but I've done this or that sin and I've been too wicked." That's what the Pharisees believed. They saw the broken sinners and pitied them...turned them away. What did Jesus say to them?
Luke 5:32
"I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance."
Don't we have to do works to obtain mercy and Salvation from God? No, the only works are after Salvation from the fruit of the Spirit.
Ephesians 2:8&9
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast."
Let us never complicate the simplicity of the Bible and share this with everyone today. The most important gift you can give a strange, relative, friend or even an enemy are these verses (and there are many more) to Salvation. Please use your Holy King James Bible and God Bless!
Another priesthood established after 400+ yrs of captivity of Israel in Egypt. Established in Exodus 28:1, described & defined & detailed in; Exodus 28, Ex. 29, Ex. 30, Ex. 31, Ex. 35, Ex. 38, Ex. 39, Ex. 40, Leviticus 1, note the Name, Aaron being in the Levi lineage= Exodus 2:1, Numbers 26:59, if you want to study the laws of the Priesthood all the chapters of Leviticus, I recommend.
Numbers 3:1-45, clarified who was allowed to be in the Priesthood. Note: Numbers 3:32, Numbers 4, breaks down duties of each family, within that tribe, separated by GOD specifically, Numbers 3:12-13, Numbers 3:41, Deuteronomy also describe the duties. This continued through the book of Joshua. King David & king Solomon, re-established the Levitical Priests; 1Chronicles 6:10, then again at the return of the Babylonian captivity re-established by Ezra, Nehemiah, Haggai, & all Israel that returned.
Therefore by these recorded accounts it appears the priesthood that existed during the moment your referring to in Mark 15, were traditional heirs of the priesthood as established, in Exodus. Respected & upheld by Jesus himself= Matthew 8:4, Mark 1:44, Luke 5:14,
Please read Isaiah 53, Zechariah 13:6, John 18:35,
Interestingly in: Luke 1:5, Luke 2, Hebrews 5, Hebrews 6, Jesus Our High Priest.
They swayed Pilate, Matthew 27:24, Mark 15:15, Luke 23:4-23, John 19:8-15, yet GOD ordained it & Christ allowed it, John 10:17,
I find it useful to read & study many Books of the Bible to answer my questions within one part of another Book.
Hopefully these are helpful & fully answer your questions
Matthew 4:24, Matthew 8:8-13, Matthew 8:16, Matthew 12:15, Matthew 12:22, Matthew 15:20, Matthew 19:2, Matthew 21:14, Mark 3:10, Luke 4:40, Luke 5:15, Luke 6:18, Luke 6:19, Psalms 147:3,
John 16:23, Luke 11,
Hopefully these help, comfort, direct & encourage you as you seek GOD & HIS healing
Matthew 3-7, Matthew 5, Matthew 5:20, Matthew 9:10-13, Matthew 9:14-17, Matthew 9:27-34, Matthew 12:14, Matthew 12, Matthew 15, Matthew 16, Matthew 16:6,12, Matthew 19:3, * Matthew 21, Matthew 22, Matthew 22:15, it appears they were wrongfully referring to the book of Tobet, in 1611 version, Tobit 3:7,8, Matthew 22:29,

Hopefully these are helpful in your study, I included several Chapters to read next to verses, to read within context, for better understanding
I believe age is a great blessing from God.
God Bless You.
You are very welcome! Isn't it funny how that works? There are things I read in the bible over and over again, but still don't get it. Even if I ask someone to help explain it to me, it still makes no sense. It used to frustrate me. I used to think "What, am I stupid or something? Why can't I get this?" i mean, it's written in plain English. But then I realize I'm never going to get it unless God's Spirit reveals it to me. So the things I still don't understand, I have come to realize that it is God's way of telling me I'm not ready to understand it yet, and I'm good with that!
I'm glad I could help you. God bless!!!

The old man is like a leaky wine skin, the new man grows stronger .
I have always thought of it this way .
It could apply to other applications as well .
Frances,
So, they would pour new wine into new wineskins. And then when the wine stopped expanding, the skins would harden and you would have a container. However, if you were to pour the wine out after the wine skins have hardened, and pour new wine into the old wine skins, and the wine began to ferment and expand; the skins are not going to go with it because it has hardened now. It will break!
So, nobody puts new wine into old bottles else the new wine will burst the skins, and be spilled, and the wineskins shall perish.
Luke 5:38-39 can be taken together: The word better in Greek means useful. What Jesus is saying is that there's an old dying religious system that people just will not give up, because when Messiah comes, He's going to set up His kingdom. And you cannot mix the new with the old. Jesus did not come to breathe life into the old Jewish religious system.
He called people to follow Him. When He went into the synagogues, He said everything that you're studying here is about me. But He didn't have a building, He didn't have a church. He walked through the villages, and lived in the hills because He was not establishing a religious system.
And He says the two don't mix, the old and the new. You can't pour new wine into an old dying religious system. Nor can God pour His spirit into somebody that says, "the old is better, no thanks, I like the old system!"
Hope this helps you out!
I am going to use two posts to cover those 6 verses), and hopefully this will help you. The second post will be ( Luke 5:34-39/Part 2)
In Luke 5:34, Jesus is using the language from Isaiah Chapter 61 where Messiah is presented as the bridegroom, and the believers in Messiah are the bride. He says look, its wedding day. Fasting is for grief. If you are going to have a celebration, you don't fast!
Luke 5:35: Jesus says, But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and in the Greek it's an act of violence, He is violently removed from them, and then shall they fast in those days. He will be taken away, it will be a time of grief, and then they will fast.
Luke 5:36: The ladies here should know more about this than us men do. If you have a tear in a garment, and Jesus is talking about un-shrunk material. You take old material that has already been through the shrinking process, and some new material that hasn't shrunk at all, and then you take some of the new material and use that as your patch. What happens when you wash it? The new material is going to shrink up and pull and it will eventually tear. They do not match. They do not go together!
Luke 5:37: And no man puts new wine into old bottles. Now the word "bottles" in Greek is wine skins, but they use them for bottles. What they would do is take new wine skins, form it so that you have a funnel at the top, and they would pour new wine into new wineskins, and then the wine would ferment and expand and the wine skins would expand with it.
Thank you,
Frances
Just thinking: even though Lazarus in real life may not have been financially poor, his sister had been tormented by 7 demons, in front of the ' religious ' for they judged her openly, Lazarus who dwelt with his sister/s suffered.
Jesus walks in, delivers, redeems, forgives, restores & teaches GOD's words. Mark 16:9, Luke 5:17, Luke 5:29-32, Mark 2:14-17, Matthew 9:10-13, Luke 8:2, Mark 16:9,
John 11:2, John 12:1-11, Luke 7:36-50, Luke 8:2, believing Mary to be Mary Madgelene, & reading John 11:2, (as the only time Jesus feet were anointed with oil, & wiped by a Mary's hair)
Luke 16, interestingly in the Parable/story the "rich" man cried "Father Abraham, have mercy._.._" & "if they hear not Moses an the Prophets._."
John 11, & John 12,
There are other verses throughout scripture; starting with the "Elohim" in Genesis where man is said to be made in "our image" ( Genesis 1:26); other verses in Psalms about the presence of the Spirit or Christ ( Proverbs 8) since the beginning further prove this point. 1 Peter 1:2 shows all 3 parts of the Godhead; and that is repeated many other places. Perhaps the greatest proof to many is Isaiah 53 which mentions clearly that "God is with us". It is prophetic of Christ being "King of Kings" along with His sufferings and deity. It is only by divine revelation that Christ is known as being Lord and worshipped as Christ stated to Peter in Matthew 16:17. It is only by the Holy Spirit that Christ can be acknowledged (or fully understood) as coming in the flesh and any other spirit that says he didn't is not from God ( 1 John 4:2).
Truly; the righteousness of God coming in the form of a man was the only thing that could forgive us since the fall. He had to be as the second Adam ( 1 Cor. 15:45). The completion of this is the Rapture and or resurrection where we shall be in a glorified body! What is most sobering is that although He is the first of the Firstfruits risen from the dead; He alone will bear the scars as Psalm 22:16 states that they have "pierced His hands and feet." The hatred of the Pharisees was that He claimed to be God forgiving men's sins ( Luke 5:21). Hopefully this is a good start in your search for an answer to your question.
I don't believe that the Greek word for baptize was supposed to mean something else, so someone can feel off the hook from being baptized. I don't believe that just because someone found another Greek word they prefer that people are somehow free of Jesus's commands to be baptized. Jesus talked about water baptism, baptized people, and His disciples were then called to baptize in water to fulfill the command. It says it plenty of times in the Bible.
The Bible says to repent and confess:
"I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance" Luke 5:32
"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9
When God says something and man says something different, I believe God's Word over man's word. The gospel isn't complicated and doesn't take Greek or Hebrew scholars to understand but a desire to seek and follow God. I've noticed on many occasions when someone finds something they aren't comfortable with in the Bible, they go to the Hebrew/Greek and try to make it mean something other than what it means. But its already translated and already means what it says.
God bless...
many people he told them to present themselves in the temple and offer the offering in the old testament example
Luke 5:12-14, Mathew 8:1-4 Mark 1:40-41, luke 17:12-16 under the law of moses because their backgrounds were
Judean. When he healed Gentiles he never made that a point to say go to temple or see priest , the centurions servants
son is a perfect example he the centurion said you say it I believe it!. The condition was always believing because if
you don't believe you can't receive.
Good observations.
One, God listens to those who ask for healing two: some people do not have an inner sense of God and they want things demonstrated publicly. Then they failed to want to believe them
Three: God can be very generous just as he was in pointing out to the disciples to try dipping their nets one more time
four: God is very generous to us each day and when we take time to be grateful to God and other people I life changes and we become empowered.
2 Chronicles 20:1-4, Ezra 8:21-22, Esther 3: , Esther 4:1,3,7,8,11,14,16, Isaiah 58:6-14, Jeremiah 36:7-10, Joel 1:12-15, Joel 2:15,
Jonah 3:3-6,
Matthew 6:16-18, Matthew 9:14-15, Mark 2:18-20, Luke 5:33-35,
People are deceived if they believe everyone goes to heaven regardless of how much sick and vile evil they commit against God, like Hitler mass murdering people. Jesus already said most people will go to hell. Just read the gospels and his many parables. They are all similar themes- warning after warning.
Jesus died for everyone, but forgiveness is contingent upon someone humbling themselves, repenting, confessing, believing, declaring Jesus is Lord and accepting the gift. Acts 2:38 - this requires an action. It doesn't say 'Do nothing and ye shall receive the gift' or 'Keep sinning as much as you want...' Here's another action requirement: repentance: Luke 5:32. Here's another confessing: 1 John 1:9.
Romans 10:9 - notice the "If..." People don't say "if" unless it's conditional. Salvation is conditional.
This says to believe: 1 John 5:13. It doesn't say 'not believing is totally fine.' Romans 12:2 - this says to be transformed and to not conform to the world. That's a big bummer for those hoping for a free get out of hell free card to enjoy a lifetime of sin and guilty pleasures. Look at this: John 8:11 and even this: James 2:26. Another: James 4:6. Reading the Bible for what it is paints a very different picture than the little summaries people like to spread around. People who ignore all the Bible's teachings and do whatever they want should be afraid for their soul: Luke 12:5. God bless.
Matthew 9:12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
Luke 5:31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
Luke 8:43 And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any,
Luke 8:48 And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.
I have had my shots
Luke 15:1-7
Luke 15:11-32 this is the story referred to as 'prodigal son'
In addition to prayer, God also wants us to help ourselves. Here's some scripture for you.
Colossians 4:14 Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas, greet you.
Luke 4:23 And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country.
Jeremiah 8:22 Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
Luke 5:31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.
Matthew 9:12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
Mark 2:17 When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repent
God provides mankind with gifted minds in a multitude of various fields, including Medicine, Pharmacy, and other varied fields including psychology: the science or study of the mind and behavior. God provides us with these people that can help and cure, or at least help us to manage our health, both physically and mentally.
A wise person will not rule out a service provider based on their religious belief or lack of. That's like turning down emergency bypass heart surgery because the doctor might be an unbeliever. Could be the greatest heart surgeon of all time, but not doing it. Can't let you fix the hole in my roof because you're not a christian.
Be wise, and humble and look at all your options, including prayer.
God Bless.
