    How is Christmas supposed to feel?

    That’s right. This reminds me of the scripture where Paul says to people in Colossians, Colossians 2:6-7. So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with...

    John 14:1-31 (Jesus comforts his disciples; Jesus way to Father, promises Holy Spirit)

    Another scripture that comes to mind is one that Paul wrote to the people from the Philippians, https://bible.com/bible/116/php.1.1-6.NLT

    John 14:1-31 (Jesus comforts his disciples; Jesus way to Father, promises Holy Spirit)

    ““Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be...

    Born again = Righteous

    Jesus talks about being born again. But also some people say the Bible is just a hoax and without any evidence it shouldn’t be trusted. That must be why God loves when his people look towards him in faith, and trust to help provide for them spiritually. Because born again Christians are given...

    Suffering

    From what Jesus said, is that the Kingdom of God is with-in our midst. I thought that to mean as for people who choose to look and turn towards God and see the Lord Jesus Christ as his Son that was from above, being the Word of God made flesh whose named meant that he will save his people form...

    What do you mean by that Phil?

    When do you "expect" Jesus to return?

    Have you ever considered that Jesus Christ, became one with His Father, and sat on the throne with his Father as the King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords? That is what is explained in Revelation Chapter 4, which is 11 verses. It seems that the Lord God Almighty, was claimed to have created all...

    How is Christmas supposed to feel?

    Something you said reminded me of this scene with Martha and Mary, Pearl. Martha and Mary Luke 10 38As they traveled along, Jesus entered a village where a woman named Martha welcomed Him into her home. 39She had a sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to His message. 40But...

    Born again = Righteous

    The Death, burial, and resurrection is consequence for having the world reconciled to himself. 2 Corinthians 5: Ambassadors for Christ …18All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that God wasreconciling the world to Himself...

    What was the thorn in Paul’s side?

    Thank you for all who have added to the topic.

    Galatians 4:21-31;5:1-26 - Hagar and Sarah - Freedom in Christ

    I believe Genesis 16 explains more about Hagar and Sarah. Genesis 16 New International Version Hagar and Ishmael 16 Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, had borne him no children. But she had an Egyptian slave named Hagar; 2 so she said to Abram, “The Lord has kept me from having children. Go, sleep...

    Galatians 4:21-31;5:1-26 - Hagar and Sarah - Freedom in Christ

    Hagar and Sarah 21 Tell me, you who want to be under the law, are you not aware of what the law says? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman.23 His son by the slave woman was born according to the flesh, but his son by the free...

    What do you think it happens when Jesus died?

    Okay, you have a good day, Elie12 thank you for your time today.

    life... death...

    It is just sharing, if you believe that is between you and God or not. It has been nice to talk about the Lord with you and simply share. Because he died for you, and was raised again for you. To have newness of life which you can have a Father in heaven to pray to, and ask him to help you in...

    What do you think it happens when Jesus died?

    Not much deeper one can go than looking and reading scripture, questioning it only leads to either believing it happened, or not. That is all there is, faith, which pleases God. To seek out what is truth, do you believe that Peter was an apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ, having seen him raised...

    life... death...

    That is why I say study, and don't believe anyone except ask God for wisdom. Greetings from James 1 This letter is from James, a slave of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ. I am writing to the “twelve tribes”—Jewish believers scattered abroad. Greetings! Faith and Endurance 2 Dear brothers...

    life... death...

    What does those things mean to you, ElieG12, is the question. What does the spirit tell you about the words that Jesus Christ spoke to his disciples on the mount of olives? From my own taking of the meek shall inherit the earth - is similar to a person become from a fierce, angry person in the...

    What do you think it happens when Jesus died?

    Hello ElieG12, The reason people believe that Jesus went some where is because of what is said by Peter. 1 Peter 3 Suffering for Righteousness …18For Christ also suffered for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made...

    life... death...

    That is opposed to what Scripture says, about the Kingdom of God, and what Revelation 21-22, states about two groups of people being in the Heavenly Realm, under the new administration of Christ Jesus doing away with the old which was by Law with blessing and curses. the Bible also states about...
