    Jesus said, you will be hated by all men for My name's sake.

    I am not certain that those of the North are necessarily any worse than others everywhere who oppose themselves to God's Way. A lot of things happening in the world of men around us are very evil: in the north, the south, the east and the west; but is not our worst enemy to be faced and...

    Is The Rapture A Literal Event?

    I really stopped considering a rapture in the way that most people do a long time ago... because everyday people are dying naturally. Some few of them certainly are with God still. For them there is to be no "catching away" other than whatever has happened to them when the natural body died...

    Jesus said, you will be hated by all men for My name's sake.

    I would guess that the worst of the hate is coming sooner rather than later according to what I see around me today. I live in what has been called the "Bible Belt" but that is an old designation applied to this region first quite a few years ago. Oklahoma to me, is not worse than California was...

    Believers need to understand the Truth

    You should not be comprehensive and absolute in your statements. You say "everyone" knows, but you are wrong in that already for I know no such thing about our friend, @bbyrd009 . At times he may be difficult to understand, but really Jesus was very often hard to understand and many people did...

    Please explain this.

    Probably in part at least from all the hours spent out in the sun especially once the hair began to thin, I developed a melanoma [cancer] which they successfully cut off a few years ago. I have been very conscientious about wearing a hat since then... My hat doesn't go on top of Jesus but over...

    Jesus said, you will be hated by all men for My name's sake.

    Still no help. I watch very little TV so you should not be surprised that I have never heard of this "Luke P" nor of the "Bachelorette" series. Is knowledge of such things important to the OP?

    meme dump!

    If I were to type one up for you using those exact words and send it to you could attach it to a bottle of your "favorite" pills and go on from there...or?

    Who is a “Christian”?

    Read this verse and see how it relates to the question. It certainly speaks of a name for you and for me IF we are overcomers: "He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white...

    'Who is able to make war with him?'

    A couple of little things I do see in response to the two posed questions, not relating directly to the external nations or countries of carnal men but certainly pertinent: Who is like unto the beast? "Nevertheless man being in honour abideth not: he is like the beasts that perish." Psalm...

    The Manifestating

    I could be wrong on this as it is only a memory of something I heard or read somewhere. Among the Jewish faithful or traditional because of the following verse they await Elijah as the forerunner of the Messiah. So they actually leave some of their food for him to confirm that they really are...

    The Power to not sin in the flesh

    While we are walking in the Spirit, we are not sinning. While we are walking in the flesh, then we will go that wrong way again. The best and final solution of course is to come to the point where we are walking in the Spirit continuously. In this we will find ourselves 'praying without...

    Will the children of God suffer His wrath?

    I guess it is obvious to some that we do not have the same understanding. But, nevertheless, give God the glory! May He direct each of us to walk on the pathway that He puts before us.

    Will the children of God suffer His wrath?

    There is reality which is God and those with Him who never die. That which is here and which we may even call life, [the carnal flesh and the doings of the carnal flesh], is the temporal and within that temporal is often expressed to us [if we have "eyes to see" and "ears to hear"] types or...

    Will the children of God suffer His wrath?

    "For our God is a consuming fire." Heb 12:29 The same fire that killed the strongest soldiers of Nebuchadnezzar only burned off the ropes which bound the three faithful Hebrews who were thrown into that fire. I suspect Caleb and Joshua were tested and tried by those same things that killed the...

    The Don Quixote Syndrome

    Insofar as our carnal minds are able to see, these two may seem to be the same... which why someone really has faith in God must be continuously hearing His voice in order to discern the difference when it makes a difference. Did they not also speak of Jesus being beside himself because they...

    Will the children of God suffer His wrath?

    Consider who among the 600,000 men [without women and children] saved out of Egypt were allowed to continued into the Promised Land: Caleb and Joshua? Were they then the "children of God"? But... although allowed to enter in... that was only after 40 years of suffering in the desert. The others...

    Please explain this.

    In context according to the way that men have dissected the written Bible? Is the context not the whole of the scripture when it is properly ordered and interpreted? Consider that Jesus is the Word of God which is what you and others call the written Bible. It is His Flesh although dead on the...

    Believers need to understand the Truth

    All of that and also... God never changes. What He ultimately wants and requires of man has also never changed. He has never just done all of the work for men but rather has always provided the means for men to get it done. No sitting back and waiting for the promise. No sitting back with hands...
