    Why Do Christians Pray “Thy Kingdom Come”?

    Going back through the posts, you agreed with everything except you thought Isa 2:2,3 was future, whereas I believe it is happening now. Perhaps you realize that when the Kingdom comes all governments will be removed from the earth, if you do then reading the parallel account penned at Micah...

    Does God want us to use His name?

    There is way more than 10 commandments for us Christians Cassy, as you likely know. We are actually still under obligation to obey 9 of those commandments, the Sabbath is no longer a requirement for Christians, or if we read it wrong, we are in a heap of trouble. God only has one name maam...

    Learning Christ

    Most people come to God via these two passages, Mat 28:19,20; Isa 2:2,3

    Why always be humble and gentle?

    They are fruitages of God's spirit Matt, although synonyms are used where they are itemized in Galatians 5. It is not always easy to display the fruitages of the spirit, but we should do our utmost to do so, as it is fruits that identify us as true followers of Jesus, correct?

    Not my own righteousness?

    Hi Matt, There are a couple of ways I can see this being taken sir, Paul was a zealous servant of God no doubt, he had made himself available to be used by God in about every avenue he could, yet he was technically an antichrist. So virtually everyone thinks they are righteous Pro 21:2 but many...

    Thousands of Israeli people Praying at the Western Wall

    And here I am again maam with an apology, I commented on something you said to what I thought was me, but you were talking to happy trails instead, my apologies for butting into your converstaion. Usually I pick up on that when there are multiple ones spoken to.

    Does God want us to use His name?

    Thanks much John, I would like to think that all of Jehovah's people display humility, it can be very difficult for sure, and it takes work. It is certainly not normal to us as imperfect humans, but I can say that age helps a great deal, I am 68, man where has the time flown to? ;)

    Does God want us to use His name?

    Sad but true my brother, satan is very accomplished at what he does.

    Thousands of Israeli people Praying at the Western Wall

    I am not familiar with that maam. One third of the angels followed satan, but I don't think the Bible gives a number other than the majority of humans will join him in his rebellion as evidenced by the passages I quoted. Let me know if you find a passage that indicates that Heart.

    When people use the term politics you generally think of government. I may be misunderstanding what you are saying maam, if you mean church politics, then yes I agree to a great extent. Jesus knew that God's Kingdom was no part of the world, not any government on earth, in fact he knew that...

    If you cannot believe the written Word, then I cannot help sir.

    Learning Christ

    Exactly Mike, so each of us has to determine what is truth. The Bible clearly identifies the path we are to take, it identifies who we are to worship and serve, and our assignment as well. Jesus set the example, and it is rather easy to identify those who teach what he as well as the rest of the...

    What was the purpose of hell/Sheol for?

    Another great question Matt, hell became necessary with the sin of Adam. All who die go there as an abode for the dead became necessary at that time. In reality it is God's memory, but literally it is the grave. It is not permanent, in fact everyone who goes there will be resurrected, and then...

    Why was Jesus sent?

    You are very welcome Matt, Thanks for asking sir.

    No disagreement on that maam, you are absolutely right God, nor His people, want anyone to perish 2 Pet 3:9. But what we want is irrelevant, each person has to choose life, and choose to accept the requirements for life. What we do as Christians is plant seeds of truth that will either find good...

    One and Triune God.

    What is the name of the holy spirit?

    Does God want us to use His name?

    His name differentiates Him from other gods Cassy, same as your name. Jesus used it and made it known, and since we are commanded to teach all the things he commanded, as his disciples we too use it and make it known. How important is it to use it? Romans 10:13

    Bible alone

    Apostles certainly were necessary for the time for sure, they had abilities that present day Christians are not given. There were if I am not mistaken 14 persons who held that title recorded in Scripture. They are: (Matthew 10:2-4) . . .The names of the 12 apostles are these: First, Simon, the...
