  1. “People who do not have God’s Spirit do not accept the things that come from his Spirit. They think these things are foolish. They cannot understand them, because they can only be understood with the Spirit’s help. We who have the Spirit are able to make judgments about all these things. But anyone without the Spirit is not able to make proper judgments about us. As the Scriptures say, “Who can know what is on the Lord’s mind? Who is able to give him advice?” Isaiah 40:13 But we have been given Christ’s way of thinking.” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭2‬:‭14‬-‭16‬ ‭
  2. “My dear friends, many false prophets are in the world now. So don’t believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see if they are from God. This is how you can recognize God’s Spirit. One spirit says, “I believe that Jesus is the Messiah who came to earth and became a man.” That Spirit is from God. Another spirit refuses to say this about Jesus. That spirit is not from God. This is the spirit of the enemy of Christ. You have heard that the enemy of Christ is coming, and now he is already in the world. My dear children, you belong to God, so you have already defeated these false prophets. That’s because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. And they belong to the world, so what they say is from the world too. And the world listens to what they say. But we are from God. So the people who know God listen to us. But the people who are not from God don’t listen to us. This is how we know the Spirit that is true and the spirit that is false.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭4‬:‭1‬-‭6‬ ‭
  3. ““A farmer went out to sow seed. While he was scattering the seed, some of it fell beside the road. People walked on the seed, and the birds ate it all. Other seed fell on rock. It began to grow but then died because it had no water. Some other seed fell among thorny weeds. This seed grew, but later the weeds stopped the plants from growing. The rest of the seed fell on good ground. This seed grew and made 100 times more grain.” Jesus finished the story. Then he called out, “You people who hear me, listen!”” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭8‬:‭5‬-‭8‬ ‭
  4. Some things in the Bible are prescriptions see below “That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife. In this way two people become one.” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭2‬:‭24‬ ‭ Some things are descriptions see below Various Biblical accounts of men having more than one wife. Just because you read about people doing things in the Bible doesn’t mean it was the prescribed course of action.
  5. “Hearing the law does not make people right with God. They will be right before him only if they always do what the law says. Those who are not Jews don’t have the law. But when they naturally do what the law commands without even knowing the law, then they are their own law. This is true even though they don’t have the written law. They show that in their hearts they know what is right and wrong, the same as the law commands, and their consciences agree. Sometimes their thoughts tell them that they have done wrong, and this makes them guilty. And sometimes their thoughts tell them that they have done right, and this makes them not guilty. All this will happen on the day when God will judge people’s secret thoughts through Jesus Christ. This is part of the Good News that I tell everyone.” ‭‭ Romans‬ ‭2‬:‭13‬-‭16‬ ‭
  6. Agreed. “God says, “Stop fighting and know that I am God! I am the one who defeats the nations; I am the one who controls the world.” The Lord All-Powerful is with us. The God of Jacob is our place of safety. Selah” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭46‬:‭10‬-‭11‬ ‭
  7. Why do many Christians have a strong disdain for Jewish people? I don’t think true Christian’s have a disdain for anyone based on race. Those may be the ones with his name in their lips who’s hearts are far from him.
  8. “God says, “Stop fighting and know that I am God! I am the one who defeats the nations; I am the one who controls the world.”” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭46‬:‭10‬ ‭
  9. “Control yourselves and be careful! The devil is your enemy, and he goes around like a roaring lion looking for someone to attack and eat. Refuse to follow the devil. Stand strong in your faith. You know that your brothers and sisters all over the world are having the same sufferings that you have. Yes, you will suffer for a short time. But after that, God will make everything right. He will make you strong. He will support you and keep you from falling. He is the God who gives all grace. He chose you to share in his glory in Christ. That glory will continue forever.” ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭5‬:‭8‬-‭10‬ ‭ “God has blessed you in ways that serve Christ. He allowed you to believe in Christ. But that is not all. He has also given you the honor of suffering for Christ. Both of these bring glory to Christ.” ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭1‬:‭29‬ ‭
  10. “Even if I walk through a valley as dark as the grave, I will not be afraid of any danger, because you are with me. Your rod and staff comfort me.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭23‬:‭4‬ ‭
  11. @farouk I find this entire post very unusual. Many pushed pages. What is your intent? Surely you have made your point by now? What goal are you trying to reach?
  12. I have not asked anyone about this to know. When I’m in church I never look for tattoos. A Christian should know if you believe something is wrong, then it is no matter how many people tell you that it is okay.
  13. Hey @Sower!! You are welcome thank you for the positive feedback.
  14. Hi Farouk thank you for sharing! I hope you are having a wonderful day.
