142 | question to smoke pot or not | Gen 1:12 | teragram123 | 54838 | ||
Not if Jesus is LORD. The only mind altering He says to do is 2 Cor. 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. 2 Tim. 3:8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. Asking if I can reveals a heart that is not submitted to the perfect will of God. My desires are still in control. |

you said it so well a "gateway drug" breaking down the barriers to even harder drugs. When the heart hardens in one area.. it allows new things to enter ones life. The old saying - what one generation does in moderation, the next will do in excess. What our past generations did by accepting the milder drug nicotine, has now come home to roost! Romans 2:5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God; |

145 | grace for the repentant heart | 1 Cor 9:17 | teragram123 | 54832 | ||
The church has been poor stewards with the gospel. It was never sent to the unrepentant. John the Baptist clearly stated to whom the gospel was sent.Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Matthew 3:7-12 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? [8] Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: [9] And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. [10] And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. [11] I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: [12] Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire. |

146 | God has not changed | Mal 3:1 | teragram123 | 54831 | ||
God is still a covenant God. 2 Tim. 3:1-3 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. [2] For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, [3] Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, The apostacy of these last days does not change what God is, even though mankind has broken his part of covenants, God still will require it at our hands. No sin is unpardonable if we confess it (except blasphemy of the Holy Spirit) but the American gospel has hardened us against repentance. What God calls sin is sin and must be confessed and cleanse or be required at our hands. The church must get back to the Commission of Christ.. the gospel. Eze 3:17-20 Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me. [18] When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. [19] Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. [20] Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumblingblock before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand. 21 Nevertheless if thou warn the righteous man, that the righteous sin not, and he doth not sin, he shall surely live, because he is warned; also thou hast delivered thy soul. |

147 | raising the dead- no possible today?? | Matt 16:24 | teragram123 | 54828 | ||
God has not changed. His promises are still for us. The problem lies within the believers. We in USA have been fed a diet of prosperity and an easy cross, live anyway you want and have Heaven too... USA is under a deceptive gospel. The book of Acts portrays a far differant gospel than what the USA church is believing. 2 Tim. 3:1-5 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. [2] For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, [3] Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, [4] Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; [5] Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. Matthew 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. Luke 18:8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? Matthew 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Many miracles are indeed taking place in other countries even the dead being raised! here is a good teaching site...http://www.watchman.ca/ |

148 | What makes Christianity different | John 14:6 | teragram123 | 54825 | ||
I knew God ... being raised Catholic... but I never knew Him in a way of a relationship... like a best friend. When I asked Jesus to forgive me of my sins and trusted Him in that by discontinuing to go to the confessional... a divine event took place in my life. The date of my new birth was March 23 1976. Christ became a personal friend, redeemer and Lord. His Word became my constant companion. I knew about Him before my conversion... but I know Him and know that He knows me now. I went from a religion to a relationship... most people have some sort of religion but that does not gain us our entrance into Heaven I could not truely know God the Father without knowing Christ His son for He is the only avenue to knowing the Father. John 14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. 2 Cor. 10:18 For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but whom the Lord commendeth. Now I know He knows me ... we speak daily! Matthew 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Knowing about God is not what it is about... but knowing Him and that can only be acchieved thru Christ alone... Mat 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. We can not know God the Father if we do not know His son 1 John 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. |

Ages and Dispensations Age—Revolution of Time: 1.Age defined - means any period of time whether long or short; time; season. In this sense there are numberless ages 2.Past ages 3.Present age 4.Future ages 5.Creative ages 6.Five main ages in time: (1)The antechaotic age—from the original creation to chaos during which time Lucifer ruled the earth in perfection, before he fell and caused the earth to be flooded (This age took in all the period of the dateless past, the original creations, Lucifer's reign in perfection (Eze 28:15), the period of rebellion by Lucifer and pre-Adamites, the war between heaven and earth which culminated in Lucifer's defeat (Isa 14:12-14; and the chaotic period on earth after Lucifer's defeat (Gen 1:2; Jer 4:23-26; 2 Pe 3:5-7). These periods were of unknown length, and could be called the Eternal Past. (2) The antediluvian age—from the beginning of the six days of restoration of the heavens and earth to a second habitable state (Genesis 1:3-2:25) to the flood of Noah's time; or, from the flood of Lucifer (Genesis 1:2) to the flood of Noah (Gen 6:8-8:14). This age included the dispensations of Innocence and Conscience—1,656 years (Gen 5). (3) The present or postdiluvian age—from the flood of Noah (Gen 6:8-8:14) to the Millennium (Rev. 19:11-20:7). This age takes in four dispensations: Human Government, Promise, Law, and Grace—already over 4,545 years by A.D. 2000. (4)The age to come—from the second coming of Christ to the New Heavens and New Earth This age will last 1,000 years (5)The age of the ages—from the end of the Millennium (Rev. 20:4-10) into all eternity when God will move His capital city from the planet Heaven to the planet Earth to reign forever This could be called the Eternal Future. Dispensation—A Moral Time: 1.Dispensation defined. The word itself is not in the Old Testament, but is used four times in the New Testament This does not mean that there were no dispensations in the Old Testament program any more than it means there was no devil in Old Testament times simply because the word "devil" is not used in the Old Testament. The Greek word means an administration, stewardship, dispensation, or guardianship. It refers to a moral or probationary period in angelic or human history during which God dealt with angels or human beings according to a particular test or responsibility, under which each was to remain true to his trust of administering affairs for God under His direction. 2. Nine Features of Each Dispensation: (1)Definition or name (2)Length of time (3)A favorable beginning (4)Test for responsible agents (5)The purpose of God in each one (6)The means of God in accomplishing His purpose (7)The failure of responsible agents (8)Judgment of God upon responsible agents (9)God's provision of reconciliation for fallen agents When these nine points regarding each age or dispensation are understood, then God's plan for man as a whole becomes clear. Each dispensation has its own particular beginning and ending; each is characterized by distinctive principles of God's dealings; each has a favorable beginning; each has a definite test; and each ends in failure and judgment, except the final and eternal one. Nothing but confusion can arise from reading certain meanings into Scripture that do not apply to a particular age. In each dispensation, God has a definite and different immediate purpose, all working toward the ultimate purpose of ridding the universe of all rebellion so that all free moral agents will be willingly and eternally subject to God, Christ, and the Holy Ghost, as originally planned, with God all in all forever Some part of one age may apply to another, but forcing the purposes of God to be the same in every age distorts Scripture and confuses the understanding. Study the history of each period carefully, and the prophecies given in each that predict a definite change in God's dealings or plan to the ultimate end. Harmonize all passages with the whole plan of God revealed in Scripture. Then one can see from God's perspective His purposes and plans for free moral agents who prove worthy of eternal trust 3. The Bible Divided Dispensationally: (1)The original creations (Gen 1:1) (2)The chaotic earth (Gen 1:2) (3)The restoration of earth (Gen 1:3-2:14) (4)The dispensation of innocence (Gen 2:15-3:21) (5)The dispensation of conscience (Gen 3:22-8:14) (6)The dispensation of human government (Gen 8:15-11:32) (7)The dispensation of promise (Gen 12:1-Exo 12:37) (8)The dispensation of law (Exo 12:38-Mat 2:23) (9)The dispensation of grace (Mat 3:1-Rev. 19:10) (10)The dispensation of divine government, or the millennium (Rev. 19:11-20:15) (11)The dispensation of faithful angels and the redeemed—the new heavens and new earth, the eternal perfect state (Rev. 21:1-22:5).

153 | Code to the Bible? | Bible general Archive 1 | teragram123 | 54769 | ||
There is a book written on this subject... "Bible Code" ... I don't remember the author. But it goes into much detail explaining the code of the Bible... but clearly reminds us to not look to these codes nor use them in any way for guidance, but simply to remind ourselves of the omnipotence of God! Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. [6] In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. --- teragram123 | ||||||
