Hi @Nancy, I have only now seen your OP. Let me work through it slowly and give it some thought. :) * Looking at this verse (Luke 11:13) first. The marginal notes in my Bible inform me that the reference to 'Holy Spirit' (Gr. pnuema hagion) in this verse, refers to spiritual gifts, because...

'Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen: Thus says the Lord Who made you And formed you from the womb, Who will help you: ‘ Fear not, O Jacob My servant; And you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen. (Isaiah 44:1-2) Hello @michaelvpardo, Thank you for quoting Isaiah...

Thank you, @Ben Abraham, You observations are a blessing. In Christ Jesus our risen and glorified Saviour, Lord and Head. Chris

'And what is the exceeding greatness of His power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of His mighty power, Which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and...

'But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. .. For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, .... nor uncircumcision, but a new creature. And as many as walk according to this rule...

Hello there, I have changed the wording of the OP, because I realised that I had made a mistake, and didn't want what I had written to become a stumbling block to someone else. We must be so careful what we say concerning God's Word, and be absolutely sure that we are accurate. Thank you In...

Hello @GEN2REV, Thank you for your input. It is appreciated: for it promotes further thought. I realise that the word, 'seed,' can be used in either a singular or plural sense. In relation to Genesis 3:15, the notes in my Bible margin declare 'the seed of the woman' to be singular, so I...

'I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not...

'These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD (Jehovah) God (Elohim) made the earth and the heavens,' (Gen 2:4) Hello @Robert Gwin, 1) I saw no alteration so there was nothing to justify. I just quoted what was written. 2) The...

Hello @Robert Gwin, Yes, what you say concerning the great adversary, and enemy of our souls is true. However, you missed the point that the Scripture I quoted was making. For the Pharisees to whom Jesus spoke the words quoted in Matthew 6 (above) had 'light', they were not ignorant of the...

Hello @Robert Gwin, With respect, what your organisation believes is of no interest to me, and what Christendom generally has to say, is of little concern to me either. What the Scriptures say is all that concern me, and my faith is in Christ Jesus my living Lord and Saviour, and on the...

'The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit Thou at my right hand, until I make Thine enemies Thy footstool. ' (Psalm 110:1) Hello @Robert Gwin, The word of God uses many names when referring to God, it all depends on the context, the circumstance in which reference to Him is being made. I listed them in...

Hello @Robert Gwin, I made no mention of Satan in my post: but agree that the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ is Almighty God, and able to save to the uttermost those who come unto Him for salvation, through faith in the all-sufficient sacrifice of His Beloved Son. In Christ Jesus Chris

'And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of...

'And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.' (Genesis 3:15) Hello there, Speaking to the serpent (Revelation 12:9, 14, 15 & 20:2) in the verse above, God (Jehovah-Elohim) refers to the serpents...

Hello @michaelvpardo, Yet, I understand the word 'gods' in the case of Psalm 82:6 to refer to men who represent God regarding civil affairs in the assembly of Israel, such as Moses for example (references above), who act as judges on God's behalf (Exodus 7:1 & Exodus 4:16). Though I know that...

And He saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of My cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on My right hand, and on My left, is not Mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of My Father. ' (Mat 20:23 cp. Mark 10:40) 'But of that...
