Discuss Luke 5 Page 5

"When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord. For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught (the load or quantity drawn) of the fishes which they had taken:" At first Peter thought he was a nice guy and open to Jesus; willing to do what he himself thought looked useless. But Jesus shows him something from GOD!

The garment in this parable represents the teaching of Moses and the Prophets, as of how we are clothed in heaven with our righteous acts and knowledge of the Torah. Jesus, the Messiah is meant to repair the threadbare parts but he knows the disputes that lie ahead from the leaders of the Temple. They will be threatened and rouse the people against the Christ. Jesus stay on earth was short.

"And he said to them also a likeness; For no man takes a piece from a new cloth, and puts it into an old clothing; else both he breaks the new, and the piece of the new accords not to the old." (Wycliffe Bible) We cannot "accept" Jesus into our old falling apart sin-worn lives. We must be Born From Above, Born Anew, through the Water of Life of the Word, and the Baptism in the Spirit and in Fire.

Bud, Tresspass=sin, offense, immorality, wickedness, abuse, err, unlawful act, slander, etc; whatever the case may be if we do not forgive them for the transgression, iniquity, the Lord will not forgive us. God will have the final say at the judgment seat, so we had better take care of it, before we get there. . Matthew 6:15, Matt. 18:21 "brother sin against me."

LU2677; Thanks for the reply but to me there is a difference. Sin; transgression of divine law.
Trespass; in unlawful act causing injury to person, property or rights of another. In Math: he stated forgiveness against a person not GOD.

The Pharisees where about to stone a woman to death for the sin of adultery in John chapter 8. Jesus spoke for the woman and convinced the men to forgive her sin and set her free. By Jewish religious law her punishment for breaking the law of "do not commit adultery" was death but they forgave her the sin of adultery. Men can forgive sin but only by God can the dead be raised back to life.

Bud, I don't know what Insight 777 is saying about it but, Matthew 6:14,15, 18:21, talks about men forgiving other men. It is one of his commandments for his children.

Insight777: Were did you find that man can forgive sins, I can not find that in my bible. I did find were we can seek forgiveness if we repent of our sins and pray to the LORD for forgiveness.

Men can forgive sins which are a result of not following law either secular or religious.Jews forgave the sin of adultery

Jesus has started to show that He is God. He heals the body as well as the soul. He forgives sin and makes one whole. Thank you Jesus, our mighty Saviour and Jehovah.

While Jesus was on earth the children partied but the time has come when he is with the Father and the children shall fast. That means we must pay attention to our life on earth. Jesus is not here to forgive sins so easily! We can't assume we are saved while leading a wretched life. If we are forgiven doesn't depend upon us but the Father. Jesus has the ear of the Father. Pray and sin not

(12-16) When any of us came to the crisis point in our life, that led us to seek cleansing and forgiveness and salvation; did any of us do it because it was popular? or because of merely seeking relief from our distresses? Why do you think, that the Lord always kept His one on one dealings with people private? He never, NEVER, used His power for advertising, as so many think they have to do!

Let us listen the word of our God like simon did !

Gift:v37-38 we are the vessel that Christ cleans up so the spirit can move-in 2nd Corinthians 5:17. I sure messed up a lot(sin). I am thankful for First John 1: 6-10, 2:1-- Satan surely knows our weakest point he will never stop his attacks on the Lords people!! Put on all of The Lords armor-- Ephesians 6:11--- ! We are surely in the birth pains! Hang on stay near the cross WE are soon going HOME.

Vs 37.
I was born in a Christian family where Dad and Mam are in full time ministry.But this didnt/doesnt qualify my salvation,i got born again 5years ago but i use to struggle with an addicition of irotic videos(even pornography) inspite confersing Christ.The issue was i didnt renew my mind so it was like putting new wine in an old bottle.Transformation comes by the renewing of the mind

V. 14 - the leper; Jesus said "go and show thyself to the priest and offer for thy cleansing". I looked up just what all that 'offering' entailed; My goodness!! It'd take all day to do that!! Which is fine; what Jesus did for us was a lot more than that.

verse 5:27...Jesus says "follow me".. to
receive the Holy Ghost and do what he said to do, act the way he said to act in the gospel. submit your heart to Him and have the courage to say? thy will be done..our strength is the Holy Ghost and are true, sincere love for him...

GOD HAS A GOOD PLAN FOR EVERY BELIEVER THOSE WHO REALLY BORN AGAIN

this scriptures tell us how Jesus Christ demonstrated his healing power.Example is the verse 12-13 and many others.Also Jesus knows whats best in terms of direction so we should follow his directions.

The word of God is the most outstanding book I have ever sat down to read and it has helped me in my life like nothing else.

On Verse 36-39, The New garment or wine there is the Word of God and the Old garment or bottle is the Tradition, tradition is the thing ussually the elder do, the thing that they do because what others what their ancestors told them to do. and in this verses Jesus ask us Why we are living in this world doing the thing that others did. Why we are living everyday doing what our ancestors told us to do. Jesus Taught us to rely to believe and to live only into the Word of God, Jesus taught us to do only what the Word of God says, not what other people says. just always Remember this verse... Romans 12:2, And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

God is one and beside him they is no other God. also Isaiah 9:6 , Father is one and that is God. The Father which is being said here is God, and that is Jesus. Genesis 3:15 war was promised by God him self. Matthew 1:16 born Jesus, who is called Christ. John 10:30 Jesus is equal with God. John 10:33 and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God. Luke 5:20 Jesus said, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee. Luke 5:21 Scribes and Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who can forgive sins, but God alone? 1 John 5:6 Father, Word and Holy Ghost : and these three are one.

Hi Annie verse 10 Jesus was letting Simon know that he was going to use him to catch men by showing them the way to truth that their souls may be saved. In Matthew 16: 18-19 Jesus told Peter which is Simon Peter that he was giving him the keys to the kingdom of heaven and as you read following Peter he told in Acts 2:36-47 what must we do to be saved and this is the key Jesus gave him which is true for all of us today until the end. Just keep reading, praying and seeking God for understanding . God Bless

Benefits of Salvation 1. Forgiveness of your sins Luke 24:47, Acts 4:12, Luke 5:17 2. Heals All diseases Mathew15:26 Healing is bread for the children. 3. Redeems your life Psalms 124:4-8, Mark 9:21-22, Psalm 91:2-10 God preserves me from destruction!

Th man with palsy had good friends who led him to Christ to have his soul saved before healing him physically. Lord make me such friend in Jesus name.

verse 3-there were 2 ships and I asked myself why was it peter 's own that was used by the Lord as a point to preach d Word? this simply taught me that if I make myself available for the Lord to use me, He will make me outstanding wherever I go just as He blessed Simon with lots of catch

Our Lord is great, and my generations will serve him to the end.

There are many obstacles for those who have decided to seek Jesus. It needs faith and determination to stand up and remain focused to achieve this ambition.No multitude nor obstacle can stop your decision.

When I was a little girl my mom used to read it to me because when it is talking about faith so when she died I was so mad at god but one day someone came up to me and said go read Luke that reminded me of my mother when I was reading it so now I know why god took my mother because I have faith inside me I know that god is the one who is the one who gave me that faith

Just do as the Lord says. Don 't try to control a situation or problem. It won 't work our way no matter how much you try, just trust and do like He GOD says in his word and you will see it will work...
