  1. The scripture in Acts are being misread and misapplied as proven by how it goes against the scriptures here in Matthew 9:17; John 6:35, & the warning against it in 2 Corinthians 11:3-4 & the prophesy of these latter days in 1 Timothy 4:1-2 and thus going against this exhortation in Colossians 2:5-10. Scripture cannot go against scripture and so believers should not be applying scripture in Acts while glossing over how it goes against His words in the N.T. Example; when Peter is filled with the Holy Ghost, it is to testify how he was speaking as by the Holy ghost rather than Peter speaking of his own volition. Acts 4:7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this? 8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel, You cannot say Peter prayed for a filling of the Holy Spirit before answering that question because Jesus said this; Matthew 10:19 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak. 20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you. That is what had happened to Peter in Acts 4 when Peter and John were arrested, they were interrupted in preaching to potential believers that after they were released, Peter & John had told those company of potential believers what had happened and the new believers prayed that they would have the same boldness to preach as Peter & John had done and they were saved. We can know they were new believers by what they did after that, by how they sold everything and laid it at the apostles' feet to distribute it evenly among that NEW community of believers. So what they had prayed for, Peter & john were not filled again with the Holy Spirit when the new believers got saved for when they were wanting to preach like them. Usually, nobody in the service of the supernatural movement of the "spirit" will listen because they want to believe that phenomenon is of God, but the spirits of the antichrist does take their eyes off of the Son to chase after such visitation of phenomenon even if it is just a sensation of being filled as in receiving a spirit again. Scriptures testify that they are at risk of being left behind per the parable of the ten virgins for being out to the market seeking to be filled but while the door to the Marriage Supper is open, they can repent with His help, pray normally, ( tongues for private use is not of Him at all per 1 Corinthians 12:7-14 & 19-21 ) and chase no more after the spirits by resting in Jesus Christ as always Spirit-filled since salvation for why the wise were ready to go when the Bridegroom comes.
  2. Paul is asking Ephesians not to get drunk as in past tense but remain filled with the Spirit. Ephesians 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; That is Paul exhorting the readers to remain sober. Notice how fruit is singular in listing them as of the Holy Spirit? Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. When you have the Holy spirit, you have all those fruit listed of the Holy Spirit. If you sow to the works of the flesh, hence drunkenness, then you are not remaining filled with the fruit of the Holy Spirit called temperance which is self control. How can you as a believer apply this scriptural truth to your testimony of you believe that? Matthew 9:17 Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved. Matthew 9:17 is a about the testimony from God that we are always Spirit-filled and thus saved. How can Jesus words be true after coming to & believing in Him that we would never seek to be filled again to satisfy our hunger & thirst for God? John 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. How can a believer seek a continual filling of the Holy spirit when it ignores this warning from Paul not to seek such a thing? 2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. Indeed, we are complete in Christ for why we are exhorted to walk in Him as there is no more receiving of Him to be filled with. Colossians 2:5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ. 6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: 7 Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. 8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. 10 And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: Is it not after the rudiments of the world to keep receiving spirits? Then how can that rudiment exist in Christianity unless this prophesy is coming true? 1 Timothy 4:1Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; The real indwelling Holy Spirit would keep our eyes on Jesus Christ, the Bridegroom whereas the spirits of the antichrist would take our eyes off of the Son in seeking a continual "filling" as in a continual receiving of them by signs and & lying wonders.
  3. I would say the Spirit of God moved over the waters to wit God is not limited by anything, including gravity since He sets up creation. So on Day 2, when dividing the water, creating one firmament, the water planet, from the other firmament, the upper atmosphere or the first heaven, we see gravity being created here. do note how God did not say "good" on the 2nd day? That is because He was not done creating the earth that day until day 3. He would not call it good when creating the earth when He was not done yet. There is an error among Biblical scholars of the day as they apply the meaning of His words of tohuw & bohuw, the Hebrew words in Jeremiah 4:23 as if Genesis 1:2 means the same thing that the earth was a wasteland, but there was no earth that first day. The Greek word "pneuma" does not always refer to the Holy Spirit. from pnew - pneo 4154; a current of air, i.e. breath (blast) or a breeze; by analogy or figuratively, a spirit, i.e. (human) the rational soul, (by implication) vital principle, mental disposition, etc., or (superhuman) an angel, demon, or (divine) God, Christ's spirit, the Holy Spirit:--ghost, life, spirit(-ual, -ually), mind. Compare yuch - psuche 5590. When one cannot apply all the definitions to spirit, then it is defined by how it is used in the context of the message given. Tohuw is defined as from an unused root meaning to lie waste; a desolation (of surface), i.e. desert; figuratively, a worthless thing; adverbially, in vain:--confusion, empty place, without form, nothing, (thing of) nought, vain, vanity, waste, wilderness. Bohuw is defined as from an unused root (meaning to be empty); a vacuity, i.e. (superficially) an undistinguishable ruin:--emptiness, void. When defining the terms in the context of creation, earth was non-existent that first day; became a water planet with an upper atmosphere on Day 2 and God finished creating the earth on Day 3 for why He said it was good. So it is an error by those who apply the meaning of Jeremiah 4:23 to Genesis 1:2 since the context of the message is way different. As for why the plural of seas, it is for the readers of His words that at one time, all the seas were in one place. What else can you call all the waters that was in one place in the beginning of creation when land was established on day 3 and yet the seas are not all in one place as it is today? @FJK & @tim_from_pa & @teddyv & @BeyondET & @dad2
  4. You should doubt the translation. I see God asking Job to expose his hypocrisy as he was singing with the sons of God regarding His acts in creation whenever they come together to present themselves to the Lord in worship of Him.
  5. That you know of. Look at the plant life. Why the need for them to be bearing seeds and fruits right off the bat on the third day? I would say for living things to eat right away when they were created the fifth day for marine life & sixth day for land life. So what if only parent particles were only present at creation as that is the assumption you are giving here? Maybe when science figure out how to remove daughter particles that came from parent particles by rate of decay, would the object cease to exist? Would they discover its function then? Or God had another reason to give it an age/function to it that we do not know about? As it is, I read the earth was not there that first day but just water as time was created that first day. Gravity was created that second day as earth became a water planet with an upper atmosphere before the third day when God laid the foundations of the earth, thus completing the creation of the earth in those two days whereas it did not exist at all the first day. Then the universe was created the fourth day and that is how God did it in verse 1 of Genesis. Only He can help you see it, brother.
  6. Given the turbulent weather, especially considering the asteroid impacts had to cause the biblical global flood, with debris in the air from that and erupting volcanos, it may be a bit arduous for them to do that for why God had birds on the ark too.
  7. Yes. That is true since their radiometric dating method depends on that there was no global calamity within the last 55,000 years, thus ignoring the obvious global Biblical flood. Radiocarbon is key to understanding Earth's past There is also the assumption that in this rate of decay where daughter particles comes from parent particles as starting from creation, they are also assuming that there were no daughter particles already present at that creation moment in that day that would give an age to the earth. Some will say that there was function to age in living things, but there may be a function to age in non-living things too but we just do not know it yet. @FreeGrace
  8. I point out again that it is your translation of the scripture that is preventing you to see the truth in His words. If the prior post that is still pending moderation to pass on the age of the earth question of yours, here is something else for you to reconsider your translation of the earth being a wasteland as if the Lord remade everything. Psalm 104:5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. Ponder the significance of that verse since this is about laying the foundations thereof and not remaking the wasteland. There is more: Job 38:4 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. 5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? 6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; Doesn't read to me as if He was remaking a wasteland but establishing land on that third day.
  9. You can apply that when He sets up His kingdom of Heaven on earth but that does not negate the Marriage Supper held in Heaven before He comes as that King of kings as this is testified in Revelation 19:1-10 before the heaven opened for Him to return with the saints to do battle and defeat them in Revelation 19:11-21. Revelation 19th Chapter
  10. Not when He gave them the commandment to go forth & multiply on that sixth day. Had to be soon after that day of rest. Did He take off from the Garden of Eden in that day of rest? Man fell on the first day of the next week after creation? It would explain why the Lord had risen on the first day of the week, but when we see Him face to face, we shall know for sure then. The questions was to get you to think about why the maturity in living things for why you should consider that there may very well be a maturity in non0-living things. Just because we cannot fathom the why of it yet or the function of it, does not exclude the possibility for it. Since the universe did not exist until the fourth day and her lights were commanded to shine upon that earth that fourth day, you cannot go by how the old the universe is or the earth is by that speed of light. And you have no proof that no daughter particles that were not present at creation with parents particles for you or science to say you can tell how old the earth is. Especially when science based their radiometric dating upon that faulty assumption that there was no global calamity with the last 55,000 years when the Bible testifies to a global flood that covered the mountains. Radiocarbon is key to understanding Earth's past Genesis 7:19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered. 20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered. Psalm 104:5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. 6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains. 7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away. 2 Peter 3:3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, 4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. 5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: 6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. Dare we consider mockers in that field of science?
  11. In order to ascertain that climate change is an extremely political serving agenda is to determine towards what end it is serving towards as well as determining if it is true or not by discerning the spirit behind it that is pushing it and other "things" too. Climate change is happening but what they say is the cause of it, when Biblically, it is just masking the reaction from God for why the world is the way it is in nature. Isaiah 42:14 I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once. 15 I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools. Psalm 96:11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof. 12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice 13 Before the Lord: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth. Psalm 97:1 The Lord reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof. 2 Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne. 3 A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about. 4 His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled. 5 The hills melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. 6 The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory. Psalm 114:4 The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like lambs. 5 What ailed thee, O thou sea, that thou fleddest? thou Jordan, that thou wast driven back? 6 Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams; and ye little hills, like lambs? 7 Tremble, thou earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob; God is behind that climate change and the devil is masking it through false science and the people behind the coming New World Order so they do not see the Lord as coming to judge the earth, les they repent & He heals their land.
  12. Since we are talking about the political forces pushing the climate change; What the FBI Knew Before 9/11 And FBI had informant in crowd during Capitol riot: report That is the reality but how the media is controlled by these people behind for climate change, can water down these suspicious pattern all they want, but the government have been known to be behind Psi Ops & MK-Ultra for any of us to think otherwise. MK-Ultra Official report above and grounds for suspicions below. MKULTRA alive and well with False Flags & School Shootings I vaguely recalled an episode from Numb3rs where a former F.B.I. agent admitted to leading a peaceful protester to bomb an Army Recruiting Center. Looking it up on the web search engine it is episode 16 "Protest" of Season 2. Protest I know it is a fictional episode but is it based on something true? A SHORT HISTORY OF U.S. LAW ENFORCEMENT INFILTRATING PROTESTS Looks like it. I do not want to be right but there is enough grounds for this paranoia. Seeing Bible prophecies unfolding, the evil people behind the New World Order are here working towards that end. So maybe you should be going before that throne of grace instead and asking Jesus to perfect that which concerns you so as not to be found abiding in iniquity nor pushing that false science & that climate change for what it is being used for. We also need His help to be willing to go and not be overcharged for the cares of this life that the day takes us unaware. Luke 21:33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. 35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
  13. Why Do Vaccinated People Represent Most COVID-19 Deaths Right Now? That was published in November of 2022 after your report of the one done earlier. They explained it away, or tried to, but there it is.
  14. I tried to find a neutral web site that acknowledge the shooting by a transgender and why they were holding that "Day Of Vengeance" after that shooting to supposedly hold a peaceful protests after said shooting, but yet they had to delete tweets by transgenders inciting violence. ‘Trans Day of Vengeance’ protest to take place after Nashville school shooting Now to be fair, just as the F.B.I. incited the conservatives on Resurrection Day, they could very well be behind that in getting that transgender community started and so it is a good thing that other transgenders stepped in to defer other transgender from that. Fortunately the conservatives or those looking for an excuse to do evil, God prevented them from acting on these threats from transgenders in the media. Just like it took that young black lady to shame the BLM protests in her neighborhood not to vandalized these "Mom & Pop" stores because in the time of the pandemic, they rely on these stores. I thank the Lord for getting those BLM protesters to listen to her. So in the time of the Pandemic when the government was advising people & even threatening some to avoid public places like churches and eating out and so forth. Why the government can shut down church gatherings during pandemic Granted, this is an opinion but he is writing to the fact on how some governors are setting limits in some ways and outlawing it in other ways. Anyway the point of that is how hypocritical our government is allowing these so called mass peaceful protests to happen in the time of the pandemic. Or was it hypocritical? Was it intentional to help spread the virus? "They" know but more importantly, God knows too, even if we do not know but can only suspect. Should it ever come out, I suspect the Lord will need to intervene to keep Americans from rioting just so the government gets what they want; NATO in for that Police State and goodbye to Freedom for ever and hello New World Order. Or so the evil behind all this had hoped in spreading the net for the American people. Thing is, the great tribulation rapture will happen before then for why a third of the earth will burn up ( USA & western hemisphere ) and thus sets the stage for the New World Order & the mark of the beast system for the rest of the world. So the net they had hoped to spring on the American people, they, themselves shall fall in it where there will be no escape but to call on the Lord to save their souls before they die in that fiery calamity that shall consume one third of the earth. Just eyeing Trump in his speeches on YouTube while on "trial" is how I can see how that might be another set up by our government to incite the conservatives and those liberals that are fed up with the Democrats woke stuff of imposing it on every one, to act out. I hope the Lord will intervene again to lead the nation away from temptation and to deliver us from the evil ones, but since very few are heeding His words in following Him and falling in these apostate movements of the spirit & even in religious bondages in various ways, it does not look good but for God to come & judge His House first at the pre great tribulation rapture event. A wake up call is coming.
