Bible Note: Hi He-man, Webster for anathema: Gr, thing devoted to evil; previously, anything devoted. 1 a thing or person accursed or damned. 1) 1 Cor 11:32, "But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the **Lord in order that we may not be condemned along with the world." Romans 1:18, "For the wrath of **God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness." 2) 1 Corinthians 12:1, "Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware. 2 You know that when you were pagans, you were led astray to the dumb idols, however you were led. 3 Therefore I MAKE KNOWN to you, that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus is accursed"; and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord,"/ except by the Holy Spirit. 4 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same (Spirit)." Romans 1:19, "because THAT WHICH IS KNOWN about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. 21 For even though they knew God,/ they did not honor Him as God, or give thanks; but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible (God) for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures." Romans 9:5, "...from whom is the (Christ) according to the flesh, who is over all, God blessed forever. Amen.

Hebrews 10:36, "For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God, you may receive what was promised. 37 For yet in a very little while, He who is coming will come and will not delay. 38 But (My) righteous one shall live by faith;..." Galatians 3:6, "Even so Abraham believed (God), and it was reckoned to him as righteousness." 4) 1 Cor 16:22, "If anyone does not love the **Lord, let him be accursed [Gr. anathema]. Maranatha. Romans 1:18, "For the wrath of **God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousnes,..."
