Hi forum, I am studying the scripture to understand certain concepts - like baptism of the Holy Spirit, Pentecost and speaking in tongues. For a long time, everything I know has been based on teaching by others - and the things I have read in the English bible. I will like to start doing deeper study by understanding context of some of the bible verses - and I have decided to start by understanding jewish festivals. I do better with books - so I'll like book recommendations for this purpose. I found a few books on amazon, but since I don't want to read just anything - i'll like recommendation from people who are more familiar with the topic. Thank you.

Thank you for clarifying

Yes, this is my opinion too, but, I'll like to know if there's a scripture that supports otherwise.

Hello @Jason Yzaguirre Thank you for your response. I have a follow up question (from your response - quoted above), is it possible for God to want us to be poor? or want us to experience loss? Does that not go against His word and promises for us?

This morning, a question came to my mind (due to some situations around), and I could not answer the question, so, here it is, i'll appreciate all scripture based definitions... What is the difference between Wishful Thinking and Faith? Looking forward to your responses. Thank you.

Thanks. I don't think that counts then.

Thank you

So, yes to my question?

1Kings 17:8 - 16. God said (KJV) He has commanded the woman to sustain Elijah... But obviously, as we clearly see from the story, the woman had no idea about any command or instructions... ? Does it mean God can 'command' people to do things (and they do it) without their own knowledge?

What do you think of bitcoin Or crypto currencies generally?

@Hawkeye read the thread... (mostly)... I am not made a decision.

the concept of giving to the needy has been abused here... i personally hardly gives anyone who ask either physically or via phone or email... well, i mean people i don't know...

I think you should be grateful you spoke with a "fairly" sincere person... another person could have told you 100% goes to the charity...

Hi. A friend at the office, actually, our business development manager, needed a tool to help him keep track of clients he contacts... because he gets paid by how many clients he contacts, he was sort of desperate for a way to keep track on the move. He needed something simple, that loads fast, easily accessible, and preferably free. SO i created BDS for him. He liked it, said, this could be useful for a lot of people... and therefore, i decided to make it open to everyone interested. its here http://dbms.xyluz.com Its just a simple easy to use tool. I am open to suggestions on how to improve it. SO, please try it out and let me know what you think. Thank you in advance.

Please what do you mean by popping up? They made them, or they just appear somehow....
