There was no getting away from this fact: while he (& we) walk this Earth we have this nature from Adam ( Romans 5:12) which makes us all sinners & the proof is in our experience of both spiritual & physical death.

Page 2.

You wrote, "all are tempted, but temptation does not become sin unless you let it linger in the heart". I fully agree but since you've also said that you remain sinless by not allowing that temptation to bear fruit, the path is still open for you to be overcome at some point, which would then make you a sinner. It's heartening to read that thus far you have resisted & remain pure (as only the Lord & yourself could judge), but as said previously, if sin should overtake you, how then does it establish itself if only the new nature from God is in you? Adam/Eve never knew sin - Satan tempted them to sin, thereby placing in them his nature so that sin could take root & condemn them. Jesus never sinned - Satan tempted Him also to sin but He resisted him with the Word of God (Himself) & unlike Adam, the last Adam could not/never have Satan's nature imputed in Him.

What has perplexed us is your claim to be without sin. Now we can understand that you're saying that thus far you have deflected the Enemy's thrusts at you & remained guiltless. When we understand sinlessness, we can only find examples of this in Adam/Eve before their fall & in Jesus Christ; no other person in history has ever been recorded or observed as sinless. You were forgiven & cleansed from your sins in July 1994, but that was for your past sinful life. Nevertheless, the old nature (which you say has been destroyed), is still with you, to which Satan does battle, having had free access during your unsaved years & now raging more than ever, as a child of God. Romans 7, to which you believe Paul was speaking about his battle with sin as a Jew, is actually him speaking as a believer in Christ. This battlefield involved the flesh & the spirit that caused him great spiritual anguish. Yet, he found victory in abiding in Christ & had to admit that "with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin."

David, thank you again. I do agree with your understanding of sin, that it encompasses more than obedience to the Ten Commandments, though many 'Christians' today think nothing of uttering an expletive or telling a 'white' lie, considering that to be normal. Also, I agree with your example 1, in dealing with the entrance of sin into the mind ( James 1:15). Your example 2 (not Exodus 2, I assume), on Judas, I see differently. Judas already had sin in his heart as keeper of the purse ( John 12:3-6), being recorded as a thief as he probably dipped into it often. So sin was already there - Satan came to tempt him, sin revived & Satan gained another notch. As for Judas & the rest of the disciples, I never considered them to be saved - they were carnal men, moved by God to follow Jesus, to believe in His Message, & to await that day of Pentecost when they would be truly transformed & be born again.

However, sins like that of Judas, where contemplation & decision to act are necessary for sin to be the outcome, are not always so well defined. The other day while at the traffic lights, a driver went through a red light but the car going through the green light managed to brake in time. My immediate thought (& look on my face) was one of shock & anticipation of the worst - soon followed by a sense of loathing & mental derision of that driver. I did not have time to contemplate my response - it came out in an instant & sadly a response that was sin as it wasn't in keeping with how a life holy to the Lord would behave. No one witnessed my sin - but God did. So there would be times in our lives when we may not be able to make a decision to not sin, but yes, our lives should be so fine-tuned so as not to respond the way I did.

I am desiring to retire in the next 22 months. Need God's wisdom and guidance as i transition to my new life. Especially in my finances. As well as my relationship with my possible future husband. Need clarity to avoid unnecessary mistakes and stress. Need God's help.

Please pray for healing for my son and I,

Please pray for deliverance for my sister and her son.

Please pray for deliverance for myself and my son.

Please pray for my sister, Pam.

Thank you very much.

Reason why the word RAPTURE isn't found in the King James Bible. It is called: CAUGHT UP in the clouds.

This is where the term came from.

>> So we see that the English, RAPTURE, Latin RAPIO, and GreekHARPAZO, are cognates - they are the same word in different languages. But not only are they the same word, they have the same meaning. Anyone who has done a little reading from extra-biblical Greek and Latin, or has at least enough familiarity with those languages to use the classical Greek and Latin lexicons, is well aware of the fact that Greek (harpaz) and Latin rapio regularly bore the same sense of "remove from harm's way" that pretribulationists claim for the English word rapture. It was regularly used by the mythologists of the gods snatching their favorites out of harm's way. And it was regularly used in similar senses by the historical authors. I recently noted that Josephus used it of parents snatching their children up and running for cover when Titus sacked Jerusalem in 70 AD.

Jesus is not touching the earth during the Rapture. He's going to catch us up into the clouds, to meet him.

First: the deceased born again believers.

Second: alive and watching for Jesus, believers.

Would you please pray for me? I lost my job after working over forty years ? i have no income coming in and my heart is broken . I was the senior supervisor .They set me up illegally . We need income and food and Gods will please pray. Thank you Rick

Locust are in the Bible. It's insect and also a pestilence. If you Google "locust swarms in Africa", You will see news reports of swarms of locusts decimating the little food that they are able to grow. They desperately need help in feeding many starving people. They've pleaded with the world community to fund and assist in spraying the few crops they still have. Look at the comparison of a locust to a grasshopper. They just look evil.

May we all remember the Africans in our daily prayers and ask the Holy Spirit to guide our petition.

I ask that you continue praying for my Grandma and Grandpa. Please pray that they aren't sick in any way. I know I ask for prayers a lot but it's not in my control what is done but God can control everything. I just really need everyone to prayfor them if you could. I love them so much and they are all I have. Please pray for good health and blessing on them. I need prayers also as i am struggling with depression through all of this. I need prayers that something will change for the better and my Grandparents are well and I can get out of this depression. Please pray for us, we really appreciate everyone for their thoughts and prayers. Thank YOU

We know from the plagues of Egypt the locust was the insect.

The book of Joel also speaks in regards to locusts swarming, eating and destroying.

The book of Revelation also forewarns of the locusts which will plague unbelievers. Scorpion tales and human faces.

I'm glad to be a believer in Jesus Christ!

Prayer for my family , church family, my mother, my finances, higher heights and deeper depth in God

In Matthew 3:3

What is everyone's opinion on the locust was it a tree or bug ?

I want Christ will be my guard all the days of my life and to also reveal my spiritual senses to me and also make my family and I not to luck anything ....thank you.

Thank you,

There is 1 Earth and 1 Heaven

There are 3 separate and distinct Earth and Heaven Ages or Dispensations of Time.

Chapter 3 in the 2nd Book of Peter speaks of these three separate ages or time periods. They are:

1) "the world that then was" ( 2Pet 3:6)

2) "the heavens and earth which are now" ( 2Pet 3:7)

3) "a new heavens and a new earth" ( 2Pet 3:13).

The whole chapter should be read.

In general, everything mentioned in the Bible falls into one, a combination of the three, or all three of these chief Dispensations of Time.

Hi Lionjudah,

Thank you for the encouraging scriptures.

God bless you and your family.

Kind Regards

HELL OR NO HELL

Amos 3:7 Surely, the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

Isaiah 45:23 I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear.



Isaiah 60:14 The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto the; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet, and shall call thee, The city of the Lord, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.



Romans 14:11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

Revelation 12 is what I call an outline of events of the past and things to come and I'll tell you verses 7 to 9 are yet to come. Satan kicked to earth and stands up in Jerusalem looking like a messiah with supernatural powers claiming he is God returned and the world goes wild in a fake peace and they party like in the days of Noah's time. Don't believe Satan and his deceptions.

HELL OR NO HELL

Amos 4:7 Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

Psalms 22:27 All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.

Isaiah 66:23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.

Zachariah 14:7 But it shall be a day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening it shall be light.

Please pray for my marriage, to find a job a be successfull in my studies, to save my family from hell, may I be compassionate. May I hve prophetic or haling gifts. Help me to pray only in tongues !

Hi Chris, I'll try to clarify more as best as possible. Sin is the things you mention such as lying, stealing, murder. It also can be gossip and similar acts with evil intent. A very basic definition of sin is doing or not doing that which is against the will of God. Sin can be not doing what God says. Think of Jonah, God gave the order to witness to Nineveh, but he ran from the task.

Ex: An evil thought enters the mind. You decide what to do with it, to cast it out or harbor it in your heart. If you cast it out, it's over. Victory against temptation. If it goes into the heart to continue, there is where sin develops and one begins to act out on it. See 1 Co. 10:5 "Casting down imaginations" I can only resist temptation because of God's Spirit in my heart from sanctification. Ex. 2: Judas; things such as covetousness/love of money was a temptation, he harbored it in heart and acted by betrayal for 30 pcs silver. Luke 22:3 Satan entered Judas because he did not cast temptation out but rather dwelled on it and acted on it. We know the rest, he betrayed Jesus and later regretted it, then in despair hung himself. He was saved at one time, temptation took hold, he betrayed Jesus, and lost out.

James 1:12-15 "Blessed is the man that endureth temptation" Fact, all are tempted, but temptation does not become sin unless you let it linger in the heart. Temptation itself is not the sin but if it reaches the heart then it becomes sin.

Consider these too; Ep. 4:3-6 Only 1 God who teaches all the same, no confusion in 1; 1 Co. 14:33, 1 Co. 1:10 speak the same thing, not language but in belief.

I did not always know much about God. When I got saved, the Holy Spirit taught me truth and I then can read and understand the mysteries in the Bible. And to be clear, salvation and sanctification are 2 separate acts required to be fully saved from sin. Think OT tabernacle with 2 rooms, both with altars to apply blood sacrifice. Today Christ is the our sacrifice. If we believe and obey.

I want the Lord to give me a good job,wealth, good health,zeal to work in his vine yard, and let that good things which is said about me manifest speedly , I want every foundational curses broken in my life and I need a life partner that suits me,I want peace and joy to be returned to my family,I want healings for my mum and sister,I want Dad to be free from the boundage of the enemies,and let the Lord perfect that which concerns me,I want a job for my kid sister and dad in Jesus name.

One more thing. If you truly are a believer and believe in Jesus Christ with all your heart the you have nothing to worry about at all, nothing! What is going to happen to you is you take the best day that you have ever had in your life and times that by one million and that is what you are headed for when you leave this world and that is going to be a lot sooner than we know, this time on this earth is very very short! Lord Jesus please help all these people that are having so many bad things going on in there lives, they need you so bad Jesus. Amen

I am praying for everyone on this site that is having so many bad problems in there lives! I am praying for everyone at the same time because there are so many and it is so heart breaking. What problems are minor to us is major to someone else but most of these sound really serious. I pray for all these people every day and every night when I go to bed that our Lord Jesus will here there prayers and help them and he will and you never know when or what he will do but he will. Good luck to everyone and you are being thought about and prayed for every day. Thank you Lord Jesus for everything you have done for us and everything you still do for us. Amen

Hi J J,

Sorry to hear that you live in a bad place. God bless you and your family.

Kind Regards.

Claire

Heavenly Father,

Please protect J J, Like you protected Noah and his family during the flood, and please open the doors of heaven for J J, like you opened the Red sea for Moses.

Thank you father, In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

b. even given that you are able to avoid such sins & remain sinless, the question arises: can a person who has no sin (therefore no sin nature) can, even in temptation's provocation, contemplate whether he chooses to sin or not? I'm certainly not in that position because I know when temptation comes, its appeal is to my sin nature & from there I make the decision with the Spirit's help & word to my heart. But if no sin nature exists (as was also with Jesus), then how can there be a choice to sin or not, as there's no evidential sin in you & nothing for that temptation to take hold of to cause sin?

For sin to take root there must of necessity be a 'fertile' ground for it to germinate - & in your case (as you say) you only have the new nature given by the Spirit (the old being done away with), & this new nature simply cannot be invaded by all manner of evil. So, as I see it, you don't really have a choice to sin or not - your nature doesn't allow you to have one.

Truly, a very difficult concept for me to grasp.
