Greetings hartons, Welcome to the forum! I don't think that Shelly gave you the answer that you were looking for, however, I am not quite sure what you are asking. What do you mean "who" did He say He would listen to? prayon | ||||||
263 | Dying to self | Rom 12:1 | prayon | 108898 | ||
Greetings Cheryl, I really like the way the poem describes being a living sacrifice. It is definitly not an easy thing to do. We can be so "fleshy" at times no matter how hard we try not to be. Being a living sacrifice is something that we need to work on daily. Many people think that giving of their time or money is being a living sacrifice but as the poem states it goes much deeper than that. We must give of ourselves in every aspect of our life. What you are talking of, the speaking out, the taking a stand, etc is part of being a living sacrifice. We are told to come out of our comfort zone and stand for the gospel against the persecution that the bible warns us that will come. Doing that is also being a living sacrifice. We are sacrificing our comfort for the cause of the gospel. prayon |

Greetings Chill, One more thing that no one mentioned that you could do is to talk to your pastor. Many times pastors have received a word of knowledge from the Lord and are able to give direction in areas we need it, including your purpose or destiny. prayon | ||||||
266 | Can i pray a similar prayer as Psalms 35 | Eph 5:33 | prayon | 104566 | ||
Most Assuredly! You can pray it word for word. Why change a proven thing? The bible is our guide and we can quote any prayer in it! I do it all the time - I just personalize it. prayon | ||||||
267 | Jude 1:9 and Zec 3:2 | Jude 1:9 | prayon | 104532 | ||
yes it does. Jude is telling here how Michael deferred to the ultimate sovereign power of the Lord. He followed the example of given in Zech 3:2 which gave the illustration of how Christians are to deal with Satan and demons. prayon | ||||||

270 | Who were baptized in Jesus name? | Acts 2:6 | prayon | 96614 | ||
Greetings Tynes, There is no way to get a specific number as you can see below. (Some verses say specifically "abaptized in the name of Jesus Christ and some do not. I have included both.) Matt 3:5-6 "Then Jerusalem, all Judea, and all the region around the Jordan went out to him and were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins" Luke 1:9 - " Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan." Luke 3:12A "Then tax collectors also came to be baptized" John 3:22 "Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He remained with them and baptized." In Acts 2:5 "the multitude came together"and were " baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins (v.38) and "and that day about three thousand souls were added to them (v. 41). Acts 8:12b-13 "both men and women were baptized. 13Then Simon himself also believed; and when he was baptized." Acts 8:38: " And both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he baptized him." Acts 9:18 "Immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he received his sight at once; and he (Paul) arose and was baptized." Acts 10:46 "And he commanded them (Cornelius' household) to be baptized in the name of the Lord". Acts 16:15 "And when she (Lydia) and her household were baptized". Acts 33b "And immediately he (the jailer) and all his family were baptized." Acts 18:8 " And many of the Corinthians, hearing, believed and were baptized." Acts 19:5 "When they (some disciples in Ephesus) heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus." This is not a complete list. prayon |

273 | How long were Egyptian plagues in all? | Exodus | prayon | 96407 | ||
Greetinngs Mouse and welcome to the forum, Moses lived 120 years. His life is divided into 3 time frames. His first 40 years were spent in Egypt(Acts 7:23). After murdering the Egyptian guard he fled to Midian where he spent the next 40 years of his life (Acts 7:30). Moses then wandered in the wilderness for 40 years. According to this time chart the plagues could not of lasted any significant amount of time. In one article I have read that the plagues lasted 6-10 months. Hope this helps. prayon |

274 | author of Thessalonians | 1 Thessalonians | prayon | 95612 | ||
Greetings Churchlady, Thessalonians was written in response to the report that Timothy brought back to Paul about the condition of the church and the rising persecution. Both of the books are known as the eschatological epistles. The main themes are the return of Christ, the rapture and the 2nd coming. Paul had been evicted from Thessalonica and wrote mainly out of his concern for the flock he had been separated from. Some of the purposes were: to comfort the church, answer false allegations to encourage the persecuted church remind them of the importance of moral purity condemn the sluggard lifestyle correct a wrong understanding of prophetic events difuse tension in the church teach the basics of Christian living. Hope this helps. prayon |

276 | why is it we were never meant to change | Bible general Archive 2 | prayon | 95191 | ||
Greeetings, As Makarios there are many aspects of your remarks I could address that show you truly have no idea of what the bible says but I will only address one thing. Your comment " a loving god (far be it for me to think i can think anything like god) would never doom so many "heathens" to death year after year." God did not comdemn any one to death. We condemn ourselves. All God asks of us is that we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior and live according to the principles set forth in the bible. We are the ones who choose to not honor His request, thus condemning ourselves to death. prayon |

277 | how do I know if God is speaking to me | John | prayon | 95120 | ||
Greetings kbus, This is in addition to Makarios answer. When you believe that God is speaking to you and you are not sure then first ask yourself does it completely line up with the Word? If not, then it can not be from God. If you are still unsure pray and ask God for a confirmation. As time goes on your discernment will grow and you will know. prayon |

278 | Why was Cain's offering unacceptable? | Gen 4:3 | prayon | 93997 | ||
Greetings jip and welcome to the forum, Cain's sacrifice was not acceptable because he came to God his way instead of coming God's way. The word offering here means minchaah min-khaw is from an unused root meaning to apportion, that is, bestow; a donation; euphemistically tribute; specifically a sacrificial offering (usually bloodless and voluntary): gift, oblation, (meat) offering, present, sacrifice (Strongs 4503). We know that God requires a blood sacrifice which Cain did not give. It is possible this is why the offering was unacceptable. It is also debated that He did not accept it because Cain may have been somewhat careless or indifferent. We must always go to God with the right attitude. prayon |

279 | What about an abusif husband? | Ephesians | prayon | 93607 | ||
Greetings paulie and welcome to the forum, Eph 5:21 says that a husband and wife should "be subject to one another out of reverence for Christ". This is talking of a godly relationship not one where one party is abusive to the other. Christ's relationship to the church was one of servanthood of all who followed Him and He gave Himself up for them. Never did He order people around, threaten, hit or frighten them. Another scripture Col 3:19 says that husbands are to love their wives and do not be harsh with them. If the man is not fulfilling his responsibility or obligation as a husband the wife is not obligated to be a dorrmat for him. Jesus does not expect a woman to stay and tolerate the abuse. The wife's obligation is to provide for her safety and the safety of the children. In any sort of abuse, whether it be physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual, the children are subjected to that abuse and will pay the price later in life if not at the present. In addition if the abuse cycle is not ended it will continue through the children to their spouses. It is better to remove them from the abuse rather than to allow them to be harmed. She is accountable to God for her children and the way they are raised. I am assuming that since this is a 15 year marriage that the children are older children. Children are vulnerable. They will desperately need counceling too. Nothing creates anger in children as quickly as abuse by parents or parent to parent abuse. Abuse in any form is a vicious cycle that needs to be stopped. Encourage this woman to seek Christian counceling. If intuitively she does not want to speak to her own pastor then there is probably good reason. If the pastor encourages her to be a "better wife" or to stay where she is at or even to lift up the abuse to the Lord (remaining where she is) then this person will not be a good resource for her. Remember ministers ususally have not received any formal training on the subject and have no comprehension about what she is going through. It is a good idea to contact a shelter for abused women. They will have different names for people who will be able to help. May God Give this woman courage and strength in her time of trial. prayon |
