Salvation has been brought to every nation, tribe and tongue, of all who would believe. Meaning it is not only for Israel. God had previously for a very very long time only revealed Himself to Israel, and their mindset was that only they could know or have anything to do with God. Remember...

Job 1:8-12 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought? Hast not thou made an hedge...

What is obstructionist about repentance? Does that not address the needs of souls? You want to deal with the symptoms and I'm trying to deal with the disease. Go ahead and deal with the symptoms if you can but please don't try to obstruct those who are trying to diagnose and deal with the...

So awful. This world is so evil and it is overtaking the western formerly "Christian" nations as we near the end of the age. Time to get on the ark and load it up with souls. We can't save this world from being engulfed with evil and going under, we can only get souls saved, who are...

I think political concerns are really the least of our worries. What we are doing with politics is really fighting against the just judgments/chastisements of God. Which is not sin in and of itself, except that His judgment will not be turned away without repentance. "Except the Lord keep the...

That wasn't a Christian service, it was an ecumenical interfaith service with prayers being offered by representatives of other religions, some of them pagan, and it's an abomination to God for HIS people to participate and be unequally yoked with such. So sad.....it's not a good sign for...

Amen. Thank you Jesus. We may never know the half of what He suffered, soul and body, in bearing all the curses of all the sins of the entire world.

@Simonides - I believe Jesus suffered (on our behalf) due to all the curses of the sins of mankind that were laid on Him. Suffering is part of the curse of sin.

Yes Satan is behind the evil in this world, but God (Christ) is over him. I'm amazed at the Lord's ability to rule and reign sovereignly over everything without ever doing wrong. But I wont' argue with you at length about this. Just will leave you with these scriptures to consider: Rom 13:1...

God's sovereignty isn't easy to understand. He foreknew what Lucifer would do before He created him. The Lord also foreknew what Adam & Eve would do before He created them and the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. AND He already had a plan and solution...the Lamb was slain from the...

Isa 54:16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. Isa 45:6-7 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the...

Reading prayerfully, I think that scripture passage is actually redemptive on a personal level.....it is reading to me about the Lord dealing with our flesh and old man.

Isa 63:1-6 Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in...

Faith is not a matter for the fleshly brain, but a matter for the heart and spirit. The fleshly carnal brain is useful for dealing with earthly practical things, not spiritual things. We can only perceive God and His truths by our spirit/heart, once He has awakened and reconnected our...

Amen. We are to bring our thoughts CAPTIVE to the obedience of Christ...the living Word, and the bible also says "do not go beyond what is written". That is our place of safety....His sheepfold as I think of it, to keep us from wandering astray and blowing around with every wind....this way...

The Father didn't crucify His Son but yet it was He who GAVE His Son, foreknowing what men would do to Him and why......and also scripture says it pleased God to bruise His Son. The Lord is very much sovereignly ruling and reigning. Jesus said concerning His crucifixion that it was for this...

Well, that is the problem. Trying to take matters into our own hands to fix them...always leads to more problems, just different ones. That's the reason for the ol' pendulum effect.

Yes, but we must recognize and bow to the sovereignty of God in all things....He is the one who created the Destroyer to work havoc....and in Isaiah it says the Lord creates both good and evil. That is the reason we can pray to the Lord for help in time of trouble/tribulation. He is above and...

Forgiveness means to be freed/loosed from the debt of sin, the curse of it, as well as being freed from sin's dominion.

Amen. And that is because He shed His blood - the life (spirit) is in the blood - that we might receive a share in His Life (eternal/spirit) and that is what sanctifies the child of God - His Spirit is life - God's presence by His Spirit is what sanctifies our temple....this is why even the...
