    Prayer for peace in the world

    One that comes from the heart and in sincerity. Pray that God will work in the hearts of mankind and turn them from their wicked ways. And for those who were put in the path of this terrible infection, healing, safety, and a swift end to it. I sing alot and I love music. So I add my voice to...

    What is the purpose for the judgment of God?

    Deu 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. Psa 103:6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed. Ecc 5:8 If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting...

    What constitutes penance!

    I believe the Pharisees and Saducees are being addressed with this quote. They were coming to John's baptism. Not because they believed they were sinners and needed to be washed, but rather to make a show of themselves before the people. They didn't believe they were sinners, so John asked them...

    Who has the authority…

    Jhn 9:6 When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Ever...

    The deaths of Steven and Jesus

    I'm going to venture a guess, because I'm not sure about the laws. Jhn 18:28 Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover. Jhn 18:29 Pilate...

    What constitutes penance!

    Pro 24:15 Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place: Pro 24:16 For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief. *This is not for you @theefaith , this is for my own benefit. Rom 14:1 Him that...

    The Revelation Ending

    This reminds me of Jeremiah Chapter 36. Jeremiah was told to write in a scroll all the evil that Israel, Judah, and all the nations had committed. Jehoiakim who was King at the time, heard what was written in the scroll, and took a penknife and started cutting out things he didn't like...

    What constitutes penance!

    ok. Can you define these penances in your own words. What is prayer? What is fasting? What are alms? What is self denial? And what does carrying the cross mean to you. In your own words. I just would like to know how you understand them and perform them. Thank you Hugs

    What constitutes penance!

    we have free will... check and a sin nature... define sin The just man sins seven times a day... not 6 not 8, but 7? Show me. Sin causes a seperation from God's grace... Eph 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved; ) Sacrament A...

    What constitutes penance!

    Isa 58:1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. Isa 58:2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me...

    What constitutes penance!

    Mat 6:5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. Mat 6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and...

    Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated

    Gen 25:32 And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? Gen 25:33 And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. Gen 25:34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat...

    Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated

    Gen 25:29 And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint: Gen 25:30 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom. Gen 25:31 And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright. So, My brother been...

    Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated

    Gen 25:27 And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents. Gen 25:28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob. It's the "but"... why the "but" ?

    Gen 25:23 And the LORD said unto her (Rebekah), Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger. This is what the Lord said.. Two nations are in thy womb...
