  1. I'm so angry right now !!!!!!!! :( :(
    I had to leave the house pick up a few things.
    I run my errand and I go back to my house. There are 4 police cars and 6 police officers in my home. The front door had been knocked off the hinges, stuff everywhere, and apparently they were looking for something. So I'm stuck outside with this police officer and they are inside searching through everything, even our laundry. They checked inside my closets under my mattress. They tore my thi...ngs apart. So, as you can imagine, I'm getting upset, and I'm trying figure out what's going on.
    I asked if they had a search warrant, and if I could see it. The cop in my bedroom yells, "Where did you hide it at? We know it's here! We are searching."
    Then I yell back, "If I had an idea of what you're looking for sir, maybe I could help!" He shoots me the "you wanna go to jail?” so I shut up and watch one of the other police officers look down at his phone.
    Then he shouts, "Guys Stop! Hold on. We're in the wrong house! The Pokémon is next door!"
    Don't take life too seriously, and enjoy your day!

  2. In the Old Testament God would refer to himself as simply “I Am” (Exodus 3:14). That in itself is an awesome statement. Jesus later when talking to the Jews told them “Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM. (John 8:58). Jesus is not only saying that he existed since before his physical birth on earth, but he is identifying himself as being God, as being the I Am. Jesus again identified himself as the I am when he was being arrested in the garden. The soldiers asked if Jesus was “Jesus of Nazareth” and Jesus replied in such away that the soldiers fell to the ground. “Now when He said to them, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.” (John 18:6).

  3. The most significant question of the universe continues to be.. Who do we think Christ is?c256107c784273383a339ed7f0e29798.jpg Your answer to this most important question will not only determine your eternal destiny; but also reflects the way you live now. One of the most powerful thoughts a Christian possesses is the fact that Jesus Christ can NEVER be less than who He is... He is LORD.
    The Preexistence of Jesus Christ as God
    1. As taught by John the Baptist (John 1:1)
    2. As taught by the apostle John(1:11)3. As taught by the apostle Paul (1 Tim 3:16)4. As taught by Christ Himself (John 8:58)

    What was Christ Jesus the Savior doing before His Bethlehem appearance?
    a. He created the universe  ( John 1:3; Colossians 1:16). This creation included everything, from electrons to galaxies, and from angels to Adam.
    b. He was controlling this created universe  ( Hebrews 1:3; Colossians 1:17).

    c. He was communing with the Father - John 17:24.

    The Incarnation.  That God the Son could take upon himself the full nature of man and yet retain the full nature of God. The Bible declares that Christ was as much God as if He had never been man, and as much man as if He had never been God. When God the Son joined himself to a body at Bethlehem, it was an eternal arrangement. He will continue to manifest Himself in this body throughout eternity.

    The popular idea is that God would save everyone but He cannot force people to be saved. That God cannot interfere with mans free will. As Ezra said....

     

    It seems logical and reasonable and I do understand why many would believe that because I once did to.

    Predestination means that God created everyone to be with Him, but He also gives free will to accept Jesus as Lord and Savior.

     This required God's offer of salvation and man's responsibility to receive God's gift of eternal life by faith. God will never save anyone without their consent  It is to every Christians advantage to grow in the likeness of Christ.

     

  6. Read the whole thing not just one paragraph.. God predetermined that salvation would be by grace through faith in Christ crucified alone.. Thus, all are afforded the opportunity to be saved. Predestination has to do with more than just going to heaven. God has predestined that all who would believe on the Lord Jesus Christ would be conformed to the image of Christ. It is to every Christians advantage to grow in the likeness of Christ.   Life eternal and internal do not exist apart from Christ .

  7. Has God predetermined who will or will not go to heaven?  The term predestination the context of salvation literally means: knowing  who to choose or own before the beneficiary's decision will be made in agreement  with  the  call  to salvation. God who is omniscient already knew in eternity past who would respond in agreement with His offer of eternal life through Christ Jesus by faith.

    God predetermined that salvation would be by grace through faith in Christ crucified alone.. Thus, all are afforded the opportunity to be saved (Titus 2:11)  11 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men, God never predestined that people would go to hell (2 Peter 3:9) The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance. As a matter of fact, hell was purposefully and exclusively prepared for satan and his angels (Matthew 25:41) Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels. While it is both true and tragic that people are going to hell... they do so at their OWN choosing.   God has purposed that people would be born to be born again ( 1 Timothy 2:4) who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. This required God's offer of salvation and man's responsibility to receive God's gift of eternal life by faith. God will never save anyone without their consent ( John 1:12) But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name. Predestination has to do with more than just going to heaven. God has predestined that all who would believe on the Lord Jesus Christ would be conformed to the image of Christ. It is to every Christians advantage to grow in the likeness of Christ.   Life eternal and internal do not exist apart from Christ .

     

     

     

  8. Revelation 3:10-13..10 Because you have kept the word of My [a]perseverance, I also will keep you from the hour of [b]testing, that hour which is about to come upon the whole [c]world, to [d]test those who dwell on the earth. 11 I am coming quickly; hold fast what you have, so that no one will take your crown. 12 He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will not go out from it anymore; and I will write on him the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God, and My new name. 13 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’

  9. Jeremiah 17:7-8 .“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord
    And whose trust is the Lord.
    “For he will be like a tree planted by the water,
    That extends its roots by a stream
    And will not fear when the heat comes;
    But its leaves will be green,
    And it will not be anxious in a year of drought
    Nor cease to yield fruit.

  10. John 6:47-51..47 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50 This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread also which I will give for the life of the world is My flesh.”

    Christianity is based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. We as Christians not only follow the teachings of Jesus we are to also believe He came to save us. Christianity is anchored in love..God's love for us and our response to that love. Christianity is more than a religion. Christianity is a way of life based upon one's love of God and love of people.

     

  13. If you think you are sinless you need to face reality and realize you need a savior.read 1 John 1:8-10

    If we say that we have no sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us.

  14. I am asking for prayer for a parade and rally we Christians are putting on Saturday to stand up for Christian and Biblical beliefs when people are trying to destroy our beliefs and trying to stop us.We are showing that the harder they try to stop us the stronger we will get.

  15. When the word talks of sin causing death it's Spiritual death not physical death..when 10 people say so and one says 10 people are wrong who is right???

    Everybody has physical death..they are warning what sin causes..seperatiuon from God.

    I dust my feeet with this now.With some you can never concince..you need to ask your pastor and study for yourself.I won't go on about myself but I will say I have studied this over 40 yrs and am not dumb..so carry on if you wish.

  16. If spiritual death isn't for humans who is it for?

     

    Romans 6:23) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

    (Colossians 2:13) When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions.

     

    Study spiritual death because it IS real

    In Romans 6:23 death there is spiritual death not physical death.

  17. Spiritual death is separation of the soul from God. It is so important because eternity is forever.

     

    (Ephesians 2:1-3) And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience. Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.

    (Romans 6:23) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

    (Colossians 2:13) When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions.

    ( Ephesians 4:18) being darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart;
