181 | The scriptures and U.S. Mid East Policy | Rev 12:12 | Pastor Glenn | 137828 | ||
Hello Forum, I was recently led to a web-site that complains that Christian Zionists are helping to ruin the U.S. foreign policy in the middle east. They are saying that Zionists do not want peace. I think that the real danger is not Israel or Christian Zionism. I think that it is a lie to say that Zionists do not want peace. I heard that Arafat refused a Palestinian State deal years ago. The Islamic movement clearly wants to destroy Israel. Remember too, that before Israel even became a nation during WW II, the Nazis searched them out and destroyed 6 million Jews. This makes the scriptures perfectly clear. Satan hates Jews and Christians. Look at what is happening around the world and compare to Rev chapter 12: Rev 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. Rev 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. Rev 12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. Rev 12:15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. Rev 12:16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Notice that Satan hates both the "woman" (Israel), as well as, her seed (Christians). Please check out a video called "Former Muslims Testify About Islam" by going to the following link: http://www.johnankerberg.org/TV/ankjasrm-islam-wmv.html#IPR1 This is a real eye opener. Islam is a Satanic religion that hates Jews and Christians just as Nazism wanted to destroy Jews and Christians before. Even now Christian are being killed in Sudan, Africa! This is the spirit of Anti-Christ: 1John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 1John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 1John 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. 2John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. I know that some Christians feel that it is wrong to look at the world with a newspaper in one hand and a bible in the other. Am I wrong??? Pastor Glenn |

182 | Can unbelievers pray to God? | Prov 28:9 | Pastor Glenn | 133188 | ||
Did God hear Cain's prayer? Gen 4:13 Cain said to the LORD, "My punishment is too great to bear! Gen 4:14 "Behold, You have driven me this day from the face of the ground; and from Your face I will be hidden, and I will be a vagrant and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me." Gen 4:15 So the LORD said to him, "Therefore whoever kills Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold." And the LORD appointed a sign for Cain, so that no one finding him would slay him. |

183 | Bible ... be “a doubting Thomas."? | 1 Cor 13:8 | Pastor Glenn | 133145 | ||
"Now the tough part for us here on earth is to figure out what's NOT real. I would have to definitely include those deceptive acts called miracles by those doing the deceiving when those miracles DON'T meet the high standards as set forth in God's Word. " Exactly. By definition a "deceptive act" is not a "miracle" at all, but it is in the catagory of "lying wonder": 2 Thessalonians 2 9The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, 10and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, 12that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. Blessings to you too, Pastor Glenn |

184 | Bible ... be “a doubting Thomas."? | 1 Cor 13:8 | Pastor Glenn | 133012 | ||
Hello, Country Girl, You said: “Why do you think the episode of Thomas' doubting the resurrected Lord and verifying Christ's nail prints and wound in his side was included in our Bible? If I were to show up at your door claiming to be Jesus Christ, would you not expect to see some sort of Godly endorsement of such a claim just as in the first century? It seems the same principle should be applied to anyone who claims to have powers reserved for someone actually representing God as all Bible prophets did.” OK, now I understand that you are referring to “fake” healings, fake miracles, and fake “healers”. “Naturally you know my answer to your question frin James 5 so I won't address it at all.” No, I do not know your answer. Please address this scripture: Jam 5:14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: Jam 5:15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he hath committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. Jam 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. If I must gather from your previous posts, you seem to believe that “Jam 5:16 …pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” … was only for the first century church. I am honestly not sure if this is your position concerning this scripture. “Why do you think the episode of Thomas' doubting the resurrected Lord and verifying Christ's nail prints and wound in his side was included in our Bible?” Thomas was without excuse. Jesus had already told them that He would rise from the dead. Mark 16:14 Later He appeared to the eleven as they sat at the table; and He rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen. John 20:25 The other disciples therefore said to him, "We have seen the Lord." So he said to them, "Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe." John 20:29 Jesus said to him, "Thomas because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." Why did he say “…Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." Blessings to you too, Country Girl, Pastor Glenn |

185 | Bible ... be “a doubting Thomas."? | 1 Cor 13:8 | Pastor Glenn | 132991 | ||
Country Girl, Why do you apply this scripture to miracles through a third party? You quoted: “…"test the spirits."…” 1Jo 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 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. 1Jo 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 1Jo 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 1Jo 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. In light of Jesus’ teaching concerning miracles performed in His name: Mar 9:38 And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us. Mar 9:39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me. Mar 9:40 For he that is not against us is on our part. Is there any difference in how to interpret Christ’s words today? “… miracles manifested by human beings in today's world, again IMO, the Bible clearly teaches we should inspect and be "a doubting Thomas."“ In your “opinion“, where does the bible clearly teach to be “a doubting Thomas."? “As I've already mentioned, childbirth, healing of a cancer patient and all other events which simply CANNOT be explained by natural forces indeed are most likely examples of miracles. BUT they are directly manifested from and by God directly to the recipient with no other third human person intervening.” Does this mean that we should not apply this scripture these days? Jam 5:14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: Jam 5:15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he hath committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. Jam 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Please show at least one example where the bible teaches us to doubt. Pastor Glenn |

186 | old testiment of use today | 2 Tim 3:16 | Pastor Glenn | 132535 | ||
Welcome bsc, Please clarify from your associates whether they meant: 1. the "Old Testament" (first 39 books) 2. the "Law of Moses" (commandments) 3. the "Old Covenant" (God's agreement with His people) It really makes a big difference on how we answer this. People often confuse these. |

188 | Christian Voting? | Gen 47:20 | Pastor Glenn | 132319 | ||
Christian Voting The question of Christian voting came up in another thread. At least one person expressed the question that we are not of this world so why should we vote? I wanted to point out the differences between our representative government and the most kingdoms (dictatorships) that we see in scripture. We are given a measure of ruler-ship (self rule) in the United States. Do we just throw that ruler-ship responsibility away? What if Joseph had thrown away his ruler-ship (Gen 47; Acts 7:10): Gen 47 6The land of Egypt is before you. Have your father and brothers dwell in the best of the land; let them dwell in the land of Goshen. And if you know any competent men among them, then make them chief herdsmen over my livestock." 20Then Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for every man of the Egyptians sold his field, because the famine was severe upon them. So the land became Pharaoh's. 21And as for the people, he moved them into the cities,[1] from one end of the borders of Egypt to the other end. First of all I wish to ask the question; aren’t we Ambassadors for Christ? 2 Corinthians 5:20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God. Also, we are “salt” and “light”, so I wonder what this scripture means to a person that thinks that he does not need to vote: Mat 5 13 "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. 14"You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. How does this reasoning affect how we rule our own households or churches? What can we say to our children that reject God in their lives? 1 Corinthians 6:3 Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life? Any comments? |

189 | Does Islam fit? | 2 John 1:7 | Pastor Glenn | 129223 | ||
mommapbs, I wanted to add a bit by pointing out the way that the Koran (or is it "Coran"?) recognizes the prophets of the bible and attempts to build on their teachings after "rewriting" lies into them. I had a muslim co-worker that I tried to witness to a few times after getting very much aquinted. This led to my reading up from the Koran from the public library. Want to know what I found in it? The Koran rewrites the story of Abraham offering up Ishmael instead of Isaac, thereby making Egyptians children of the "promise" to make Mohommed greater than Jesus Christ. This shows how important it is to point out the truth of how the Jews are God's chosen people. Also how important it is to point out God's identification of Himself as the "God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob". How all of the new and old testament prophets were Jews. So why does Islam hate Jews? Why does the Koran teach hate towards Jews? Why do they thow out the bible and replace it with the Koran? The bible builds one book on top of the other using historical facts and predictions of future events that have been fulfilled time after time. When the new testament was written, sciptures from the old testament were properly used to build on, like Isaiah 53. The problem with Islam is that it shows the same likes and dislikes of an angry fellow we see in Rev 12. Also, Jesus taught of building on a rock. The scriptures teach of the "Stone" that the builders refused is become the head of the corner. The Chief cornerstone. Psalm 118:22 The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. Matthew 21:42 Jesus said to them, "Have you never read in the Scriptures: "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. This was the LORD's doing, And it is marvelous in our eyes'? Mark 12:10 Have you not even read this Scripture: "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. Luke 20:17 Then He looked at them and said, "What then is this that is written: "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone'? Acts 4:11 This is the "stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.' 1 Peter 2:7 Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone," Yes, Islam is antichrist to the fullest extent. They do not build on anything but lies. Yes we should speak out against all sin even as John the Baptist did and was beheaded. So we must consider our loved ones when they "shack up" instead of getting married, or seek wholesale devorce, or get drunken, or curse, or lie or steal while still calling themselves "Christian" even within our churches. We owe it to them to speak out with gentleness and love. Any comments? Pastor Glenn |

195 | "beheading" in modern times? | Rev 20:4 | Pastor Glenn | 124778 | ||
Hank, I also like Jesus' words in Mat 24 as He said "...See that you are not troubled...": 6And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. He then tells us more: 7For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences,[2] and earthquakes in various places. 8All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9"Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name's sake. 10And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13But he who endures to the end shall be saved. 14And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come. I think that emphasis needs to go on verse 13: 13But he who endures to the end shall be saved. As a nation, I think we really need to repent beginning in our churches where adultery is tolerated, homosexuallity is accepted, and devorce is rampant, to name a few. Pastor Glenn |

Justme, I now pray for your healing as in James 5: 13 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. 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. 17 Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months. 18 And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit. I cannot lay hands while praying, but I trust many others on this forum will also pray for you tonight that God will bring healing tonight. May God bless you richly, Pastor Glenn |

"...And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God..." Rev 20:4 Just when I was beginning to think that "beheading" was over with in modern times, terrorists begin it again. In general, persecution is not so bad yet in the United States. But times are changing. Any comments? Pastor Glenn |
