1 | The peace of Jerusalem? | Ps 122:6 | Pastor Glenn | 157326 | ||
Hello Mommapbs, I feel that based on history, as well as, Rev 12, Jews are a high priority target of Satan. Just as we pray specific prayers for those that have rule over us, or for the sick, we should also pray specific prayers for the people (woman of Rev 12) that brought forth our Savior. Isn't salvation of the Jews (John 4:22) and the gospel to the Jew first (Acts 1:8; Rom 1:16)? Praying general prayers for world peace is good, but more specific prayers can bring more specific results. James 5:16 Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. Brother Glenn |

Hello Deep input, There is a very good video that you can watch for free online: Go to http://www.johnankerberg.org/ and click on the link to watch this week's show. "Jesus, Salvation and the Bible: What do Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses Believe?" There are probably former followers on the show to testify some of the same things that we have told you here. Please check it out. Brother Glenn |

Hello deep input, You asked Is Mat 26:60-61 happening today? Yes it is happenning by Anti-Christ groups like the Jehovahs witnesses. I will try to explain. You wrote: “Hello Brother Glenn, I m not currently a member of the Jehovah Witnesses. I have study with them. I have studied with the Mormons. I was baptised as a baptist. I spent many years in a non-denominational church. There are many people who are like the false witnesses spoken of in mt 26:60-61. They say thing about the Jehovah Witnesses that they really dont know any thing about. And, I will say that in all my searching, they are walking closer to the bible than any other group.” Deep impact, please pay close attention to 1 John 4. It tells us who are closer to the bible ways. Ask yourself why it speaks of those that confess that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. Ask yourself why the Son of Man could forgive sins. Ask why He was Lord of the Sabbath. Why would He be allowed to wear the title of “King of Kings and Lord of Lords“. Mat 26:60 But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses, Mat 26:61 And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days. 1. They deny the deity of Christ. The false witnesses of Mat 26:60 are of anti-Christ spirit. The Jehovah’s witnesses are anti-Christ also for the same reason that is spoken of in 1John 4, as well as, 1Cor 12:3. 1Corinthians 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. 2. They also deny the personhood of the Holy Ghost. Why would blasphemy against the Holy Ghost be unpardonable if He is not a person. 3. They deny everlasting punishment of the wicked. “You talked of Jacob seeing God. I read this too. What does John 1:18 mean? Joh 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. “…and in acts 7:30 Stephen says that an Angel of the Lord appeared to Moses. Is God also an Angel?” Hebrews 1:5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? Hebrews 1:13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? “Haggar talked with the Angel of the Lord. This Angel had the authority to multiply her descendants exceedingly. (gen 16:7-13) God is spirit John 4:24. As far having eternal security, phil 2:12 tells me to work out my salvation with fear and trembling. If all of our sins past, present and future have already been forgiven, why would we need to confess them has 1 John 1:9 states.” Gen 16:10 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude. “I believe that the council of Nicea is a major heresy (leaven) that has corrupted the church. Also please see the notes on this web site concerning 1 John 5:7. That teaching comes from the council of nicea and has levened the whole loaf to the point of this verse being added to the Bible and worse people saying it is ok because it is the truth. Is it?” Well, aren’t we commanded to baptize in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost? Do you consider that command a heresy too? Brother Glenn |

4 | Pray Please for Her Soul - Diana | 1 John 4:2 | Pastor Glenn | 156980 | ||
Hello happyandfree, If you haven't already, You should ask your friend why the Jahovah's Witnesses do not focus on this scripture at 1 John 4:2. The name Jehovah is what they like to use to differentiate themselves from other Christians. And because of that, they are not really Christians. Please see my question at ID# 92778. Aren't "Jahovah's" Witnesses anti-Christ or else they would be called "Jesus Christ" Witnesses? Also, since they say that a God of "Love" will not bring everlasting punishment that makes them false prophets: Jer 14 15Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the prophets who prophesy in My name, whom I did not send, and who say, "Sword and famine shall not be in this land'--"By sword and famine those prophets shall be consumed! The focus of the Watchtower and Tract Society on the name "Jehovah" is totally misplaced emphasis. The scriptures already have the emphasis on the name of the Son! Acts 4:12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." The great conspiracy of Satan is really the "spirit of anti-Christ", not "anti-Jehovah". Scripture emphasizes a conspiracy against the Son (Anti-Christ)? 1 John 4 2By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3and every spirit that does not confess that[1] Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. How does the NWT render the above scripture? Also ask her if she agrees that the doctrine of the trinity "does not" teach that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are "one person"? However, they are "one God", but also three eternally distinct persons. The bible is clear that there is no other name given among men by which we must be saved. John 3 18"He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Ask her if she believes that you can be saved by the name Jehovah or by the name of Jesus Christ? Your brother in Christ, Pastor Glenn |

5 | Does a person who never hears about Jesu | Rom 2:14 | Pastor Glenn | 151945 | ||
Hello otis, My comments are along the lines of Seedling's scripture (Titus 2:1). What about those that lived before Christ or even before the law of Moses? Weren't they in the same situation? Would your question apply to them? Did they "hear the gospel or even the name of Jesus?" Abraham is one who died before Christ, of course he has salvation. The greatness of God's plan of salvation through Jesus Christ is that it covered all people of all time: Gal 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. Also see Hebrews chapter 11. Hope this helps, Pastor Glenn |

6 | how did judes die | Matt 27:8 | Pastor Glenn | 151942 | ||
Hello revgeary60, The chief preists bought the feild using Judas' money. He had already hung himself, but afterwards, his body fell from the tree and his belly burst open. The field was called the field of blood because it was purchased with the blood money to betray Christ. Your brother in Christ, Pastor Glenn Matthew 27 3 Then Judas, His betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, was remorseful and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4 saying, "I have sinned by betraying innocent blood." And they said, "What is that to us? You see to it!" 5 Then he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself. 6 But the chief priests took the silver pieces and said, "It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, because they are the price of blood." 7 And they consulted together and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in. 8 Therefore that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day. 9 Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, "And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the value of Him who was priced, whom they of the children of Israel priced, 10and gave them for the potter's field, as the LORD directed me." |

7 | Compare to Romans 10:9; 1 Cor 12:3? | Phil 2:11 | Pastor Glenn | 146453 | ||
Hello Mommapbs, First of all, my heart really goes out to you and your family after the sudden death of your son-in-law. Phi 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: Phi 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; Phi 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Rom 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 1Co 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. Lets add another: 1Jo 4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 1Jo 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. We are ruled by either the Holy Spirit or the spirit of antichrist. But dispite this, people try to remain neutral. This is acknowledging Christ's deity because God is jealous and does not share His glory: Isaiah 42:8 I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. Isaiah 48:11 For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another. Joh 17:1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: Joh 17:2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. Joh 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. Joh 17:4 I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. Joh 17:5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. Your brother in Christ, Pastor Glenn |

8 | Why didn't God create us without sin? | Gen 3:15 | Pastor Glenn | 146386 | ||
Hello bjlamberth, You asked, “Since God is omnipotent and omniscent, why did He allow sin to take over all mankind? “ We are all the offspring of Adam. Adam’s sin condition passes to his seeds (us). Christ became part of our human family tree (this was required). Since Christ is God and He was born of the Holy Spirit, the sin condition did not affect Him. But, if we accept Christ, we have the Remedy for sin. Hebrews 10:10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. “Why didn't He make us sinless?” Then that would require a separate death on the cross for each of us. “He could have created us without the abilility to sin, so why didn't He?” Good question. Can we truly love God if we had no free will? If we were to have no ability to sin (choice), then we are a far inferior creation. God created man for His very honourable purposes: Hebrews 2:6 But one testified in a certain place, saying: "What is man that You are mindful of him, Or the son of man that You take care of him? 7 You have made him a little lower than the angels; You have crowned him with glory and honor, And set him over the works of Your hands. 8 You have put all things in subjection under his feet." For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now we do not yet see all things put under him. 9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone. 10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings. 11 For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren, “And why did He not prevent His angels from taking over (Satan and his angels who fell from grace)? These questions have been asked by my 23 yr. old daughter. She feels that God is just using us as playing pieces in a chess game. “ God is not using us, but He is using Satan and death (our own mortality) to scare us to Christ. That may sound cruel, but wouldn’t it be more cruel to allow us to simply wander further and further away? “I told her that God gave man the will to choose for himself and he chose to sin. God's gift of redemption by giving us His only begotten Son shows His awesome love for us in spite of our freewill to choose to sin. Can you better help me answer her question re: this? “ You gave an excellent answer. 1Ki 18:21 And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word. Luk 7:41 There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty. Luk 7:42 And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most? Luk 7:43 Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged. Luk 7:44 And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head. Luk 7:45 Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet. Luk 7:46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment. Luk 7:47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. Your brother in Christ, Pastor Glenn |

11 | God's Wrath, Why God approaved of death | Lev 18:25 | Pastor Glenn | 145756 | ||
Hello Peter, Welcome to the forum. To the question of "the story of blood religion, narrowly tribal, telling of a God of Wrath who approves the destruction of all outside groups....", I would point out that God has not changed. He was then, and still is, the God of Justice. By "outside groups", I suppose that you mean non-Jews. Outside groups of the bible are those that are "outside of faith". God is not a racist God. Job 4:8 Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same. Proverbs 14:34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people. Maybe it would be Good for you to study the following scriptures in context in his bible. God is very even handed with all people. Leviticus 18:25 And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants. Leviticus 18:28 That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you. Leviticus 20:22 Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out. Deu 8:19 And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish. Deu 8:20 As the nations which the LORD destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the LORD your God. Eze 33:11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel? Eze 33:12 Therefore, thou son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression: as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall the righteous be able to live for his righteousness in the day that he sinneth. Eze 33:13 When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it. Eze 33:14 Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right; Eze 33:15 If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die. Eze 33:16 None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned unto him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live. Eze 33:17 Yet the children of thy people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal. Eze 33:18 When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall even die thereby. Eze 33:19 But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby. Eze 33:20 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O ye house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways. Now, as to the question of those that died before Christ, Abraham is one who died before Christ, of course he has salvation. The greatness of God's plan of salvation through Jesus Christ is that it covered all people of all time: Gal 3:8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. Gal 3:16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. Hope this helps, Pastor Glenn |

12 | Does sin cause sickness? | James 5:14 | Pastor Glenn | 145679 | ||
Hello Newoldstock, Mark 2:9 Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk? Jesus Christ is the remedy for both sin , as well as, for sickness. "How come 5:15 links sins to sickness?" No, it does not. "Does sin cause sickness?" Sometimes. "Does healing sickness also heal sin and visa versa?" No. "And why would James say "if" when all have sinned and continue to sin?" If the sickness was a consequence of sin, then it would be forgiven. Joh 9:1 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth. Joh 9:2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind? Joh 9:3 Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him. Pastor Glenn |

13 | The origin of God and His identity. | John 1:1 | Pastor Glenn | 145675 | ||
Hello Nrgarcia, Welcome to the forum. There is only one true God, the God of the bible that created all things. John 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. Since God created all things, including time, He stands outside of time. He is not affected by time. He is eternal. By definition, if God would have had a beginning, then He would not be God; whatever brought Him about would be the true God, right? Does this make sense to you now? :o) Pastor Glenn |

Hello Deont, Prov 18 21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit. (NKJV) Every word that we speak is being recorded for court (Judgement Day): Matthew 12:36 But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. "what you say is what You get" is true only for trusting God (having faith in Him). A good example of this is immediately before the battle of the boy David vs the giant Goliath. The giant "spoke": 1 Samuel 17 44 And the Philistine said to David, "Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field!" But David also "spoke": 45 Then David said to the Philistine, "You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. 46 This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. 47 Then all this assembly shall know that the LORD does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD's, and He will give you into our hands." David's words clearly indicated his faith in God. God honoured David's words and faith by giving him the victory. Whereas, the giant's words showed faith in himself. 1 Peter 5:5 [ Submit to God, Resist the Devil ] Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble." [ Proverbs 3:34] Pastor Glenn |

18 | Is the "new man" sinless? | 1 John 3:9 | Pastor Glenn | 144310 | ||
Hello MJ Head, "my question is, how could that which is born of God be even capable of sin? " 1 John 3:9 No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. That which is born of God is "spirit". The new man consists only of the spirit of the three part man. We are "spirit", "soul", and physical "body". The natural physical body will sin. It has selfish carnal beastly desires. It cannot be saved. The "soul" must choose daily to walk after the "spirit" because the spirit cannot sin since it has been born of the Holy Spirit. Whenever the soul chooses to walk after the flesh, we sin. On the other hand, whenever the soul chooses to walk after the spirit, we cannot sin. I liken this to choosing to drive one of 2 cars that we may own. The fleshly vehicle will lead to death and destruction. But, the spiritual vehicle (putting on the new man Eph 4:24) leads to life everlasting. Again, this is a daily choice by the believer. I included the scriptures that you cited: 1Jo 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1Jo 1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. 1Pe 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. Eph 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Eph 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Your brother in Christ, Pastor Glenn |

Hello Nelson9770, If someone warns us to leave our house because it is on fire, there is no time to complain about whether it is unfair to warn us. God simply wants us to turn from our wicked ways so that we don't die in our sins: Eze 33:11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel? Eze 33:12 Therefore, thou son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him in the day of his transgression: as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not fall thereby in the day that he turneth from his wickedness; neither shall the righteous be able to live for his righteousness in the day that he sinneth. Eze 33:13 When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it. Eze 33:14 Again, when I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; if he turn from his sin, and do that which is lawful and right; Eze 33:15 If the wicked restore the pledge, give again that he had robbed, walk in the statutes of life, without committing iniquity; he shall surely live, he shall not die. Eze 33:16 None of his sins that he hath committed shall be mentioned unto him: he hath done that which is lawful and right; he shall surely live. Eze 33:17 Yet the children of thy people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal. Eze 33:18 When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall even die thereby. Eze 33:19 But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby. Eze 33:20 Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O ye house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways. |
