61 | What are our Rewards in Heaven | 1 Cor 2:9 | casiv | 25405 | ||
Hello shortstop45us, I believe we are unable in the flesh to understand the things we have promised, upon the redemption of our uncorruptible spiritual bodies(1Cor15) through the Love of Jesus. (KJV) 1Cor 2:9 - But as it is written,"Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him." 1 Cor 2:9 is quoted from Isa 64:4 which says,"For since the beginning of the world men have not heard, nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside Thee, what He hath prepared for him that waiteth for Him," I believe we cannot even begin to understand what He has in store for us nor do I think it is important for us to worry about, because the righteous know not the good they do. I believe 1Cor 2:9 and Isa 64:4 are beautiful verses which directly relates to the separation of the goats and the sheep of Matt 25:32-46. The goats being unrighteous and the sheep being righteous(not seeking rewards for their acts of kindness done in love). Matt 25:34 - Then shall the King say unto them(sheep) on His righthand,"Come, ye blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: Matt 25:35 - For I was hungred, and ye gave Me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave Me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took Me in: Matt 25:36 - Naked, and ye clothed Me: I was sick, and ye visited Me: I was in prison, and ye came unto Me." Then in Matt 25:37-39, the righteous ask the Lord when did they ever do these things to or for Him, they were unaware of their kindness, and the Lord answers them saying in verse 40," Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these My brethren, ye have done it unto Me." My point is that the eyes of the righteous never saw Jesus hungry and they gave Him meat, they never saw Him thirsty and they gave Him drink, they never saw in naked and they clothed Him, they never saw Him sick and they visited Him, they never saw Him in prison and they came unto Him nor did the ears of the righteous ever hear the calls from their Lord, which was through His brethren, but they did all these wonderful things for the brethren which Jesus recognized as being done to Him. In other words the righteous seek not gain or rewards for themselves but follow the two great commandments of the law, Matt 22:37 "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind". and Matt 22:39 "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." Material rewards are physical and of the world(satans lies), but the Father is Spirit and His promises in Truth are spiritual and are found in faith, hope and love. 1Cor 9:18 - What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel. 1Cor 9:19 - For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all. that I might gain the more. 1Cor 10:31 - Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 1Cor 10:32 - Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, not to the church of God; 1Cor 10:33 - Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many that they may be saved. Thanks for the question! The Father and Sons love will be found when we search for spiritual riches and not material riches. I hope this response helps in your search for Jesus and the love He has to give you from the Living Water. Peace IN Faith and Hope, casiv |

62 | Women speak in church? | 1 Cor 14:34 | casiv | 25606 | ||
Serious Apologies are owed to women from you men. I am appalled at the responses I have just read within this thread, with the exception of few. When you put yourself above anyone, that is called self exaltation, I don't think I need to go further with this word. I think you need to be reminded of the fact, if it were not for a woman carrying you for 9 months, giving birth to you, changing your diapers, wiping your spit, tying your shoes, cooking for you, cleaning for you,WHY? Because they had to? What is the difference between an Islamic women keeping her head covered and her mouth silenced from that of what I have just read of what you all have said in regards to Christian women? It's pretty obvious in the world today that satan has a big disliking for women, look at all the so called religions in the world and name one that is not perverted, which does not put women down? Do you know why women have been given the gift of child bearing? Because they are more blessed. They have been given the gift of unconditional true love through child bearing. Man has no clue of what that really means so he must put himself above the woman. Since I am not a woman it is not my place to correct you but remember my words in humbleness, that in the precious name of Iesous, you will all be corrected by a woman through scripture, because there is a great deal of scripture waiting for your Female teachers to teach you what Love is. In humbleness I pray one day you see clearly and humble yourselves when the time comes. Peace from the Living Water which is Love, casiv |

63 | RAPTURE! FACT OR FICTION | 1 Cor 15:51 | casiv | 18489 | ||
See King James version in the book of Ephesians ch 6 verse 11 which says Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to STAND against the wiles of the devil. We are to stand not fly away as so called scholars are teaching. Please continu to read the rest of this chapter in Ephesians. Also to understand what the wiles are see Ephesians chapter 4 verse 14 which says That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive. They are the wolves in sheeps clothing and hopefully some are the blind leading the blind. The rapture was brought about in 1830 by Margaret McDonald in Scotland, she was sick and dillusional. It might help if you read a book by McPherson titled the Incredible Cover Up and Ezekiel Chapter 13 in the King James version for what the FATHER thinks about those daughters of men who teach people to fly to save their souls. May the FATHER show you the way. Believe no man unless you check it for yourself. In the FATHERS service. | ||||||
64 | Ez. 13:20 and the Rapture? | 1 Cor 15:51 | casiv | 18708 | ||
Thanks for the info Tim, I will check the site. However either way you look at it we read the Bible to put on our gospel armour to stand against the wiles of the devil. Christians are being taught that they will escape the antichrist and satan by flying away in the rapture. See Eph 14:4 to understand what the wiles are. The rapture is going to happen but not by who people are being taught. Why is it not all Christian denominations believe in the rapture? Ezekiel 13 says what God thinks about those who teach his children to fly, look at multiple bibles and see where the word fly has been taken out and ask yourself why. Its awesome how our FATHER knew people would be taught to fly as a deception and He wrote about it in the old testament. | ||||||
65 | What is Ephesians all about? | Ephesians | casiv | 19808 | ||
The structure of the Epistle as a whole shows that the greater part is occupied with doctrine, one-half as it concerns our standing,and the rest as it affects our state. Thus showing that sound doctrine is both the foundation and the source of right practice. The structure of the epistle as a whole: (Introversion) A - Eph 1:1,2 Epistolary, Salutation B - Eph 1:3 - 3:19 Doctrinal. As to our standing C - Eph 3:20,21 Doxology B - Eph 4:1-6:20 Doctrinal. As to our state. A - Eph 6:21-24 Epistolary. Benediction |

66 | what do you think about monday | Col 2:16 | casiv | 25555 | ||
Hello buffalo, Monday is a great day to have your sabbath. I believe the sabbath is to study the letter from the Father regarding His Son which upon doing so with the sincerity of your heart(Matt 13), you will have your eyes and ears opened to the love He has for you and He will heal you. Whether you goto a church or study at home, I believe anytime you read the Bible your are in the Fathers church by reading His letter to you, searching to understand His will. He does not dwell in temples made by mans hands(Acts 7:48;17:24). Mark 2:27 - And He said unto them,"The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: Keep reading the Bible. I hope this helps. Peace IN Faith and Hope, casiv |

67 | who are the spirits in this verse? | 1 Peter | casiv | 21249 | ||
Hello Lydia, It appears to me your question way back in February may not have been correctly answered. The Spirits referred to in verse 19 ch. 3 of 1Peter are the angels(sons of God) from Gen 6:2,4 which took daughters of men for wives and had children who were giants(nephilim in Hebrew). Compare 2Pet2:4 and Jude 6 which are considered to be toghether with this verse. They are the fallen angels which were evidently great in size, as well as great in wickedness, They were superhuman, abnormal beings; and their destruction was necessary for the preservation of the human race, and for the faithfulness of Jehovah's Word(Gen3:15). This is why the Flood was brought "upon the world of the ungodly"(2Pet2:5) as prophesied by Enoch(Jude 14). Hope this helps. Peace, Casiv |

68 | Not mixed Spirits | 1 Peter | casiv | 21932 | ||
Hello RCSROLL, Thanks for your response. Whether or not the fallen angels are to be redeemed I only know what scripture says. The structure of 2Pet2:4-8 is in relation to the "Ungodly of Old Time" as follows: vs.4-Angels vs.-4 cast down to Tartarus vs.5-The old world vs-5 The Flood vs.6- Sodom and Gomorrha vs-6-8 Overthrown With all due respects I think we need to let scripture speak for itself regarding God flooding the world. In my KJV it doesn't say the whole world just the ungodly world.(Not to start another discussion, just what my KJV says). 2Pet2:4 - For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgement; 2Pet2:5 - And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; Based on the above text in my opinion it doesn't appear the angels have much chance for redemption but that is up to God. Regarding "The Sons of God" in Gen.6:2,4 It is only by Divine specific act of creation that any created being can be called, "a son of God". For that which is "born of the flesh is flesh". God is spirit, and that which is 'born of the Spirit is spirit"(John 3:6). Hence Adam is called a"son of God" in Luke 3:38. Those "in Christ" having "the new nature" which is by direct creation of God(2Cor5:17,Eph 2:10) can be, and are called"sons of God"(John 1:13, Rom 8:14,15, 1John3:1). This is why angels are called"sons of God' in every other place where the expression is used int the Old Testament. Job 1:6,2:1,38:7, Psalm 29:1,89:6, Dan 3:25(no art.) We have no authority or right to take the expression in Gen 6:2,4 in any other sense. Moreover, in Gen. 6:2 the Sept. renders it "angels". Angels are called "spirits"(Psalm 104:4, Heb 1:7,14), for spirits are created by God. That there was a fall of the angels is certain from Jude 6. The nature of their fall is clearly stated in the same verse. They left their own(oiketerion). This word occurs only in 2Cor 5:2 adn Jude 6, where it is used of the spiritual(or resurrection)body. The nature of their sin is stated to be "in like manner" to that of the subsequent sins of Sodom and Gomorrha, Jude 7. The time of their fall is given as having taken place "in the days of Noah"(1Pet3:20, 2Pet2:7), though there may have been a prior fall which caused the end of "the world that then was"(Gen 1:1,2, 2Pet3:6). For this sin they are "reserved unto judgement", 2Pet2:4, and are in "prison" 1Pet3:19. Their progeny, called Nephillim(translated "giants"), were monsters of iniquity; and, being superhuman in size and character, had to be destroyed. This I believe was the one and only object of the Flood. Only Noah and his family had preserved their pedigree pure from Adam(Gen 6:9). All the rest had become"corrupt" destroyed(as Adamites). The only remedy was to destroy it, as it had become destroyed. This irruption of fallen angels was satan's first attempt to prevent the coming seed of the Seed of the woman foretold in Gen 3:15. If this this could be accomplished, God's Word would have failed, and his(satan) own doom would be averted. This is what I believe. A question I have regarding Jesus changing form is in Mark16:12 Jesus appeared in a different form than he had in verse 16:9? Also on the mount of transfiguration were Moses and Elijah in the spirit or in the flesh? What do you think? Thanks RCSCROLL I appreciate your thoughts. Peace in Faith and Hope, Casiv |

REV 1:10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, REV 1:11 Saying," I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and what thou seest, wrtie in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea." Many will tell you these churches were along time ago but the Lord's day is in the future. We are to understand in the spiritual sense not the physical sense as many men do. Hope this helps. |
