And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken Me?
Psalms 22:1
(To the chief Musician upon Aijeleth Shahar, A Psalm of David.) My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, He said, It is finished: and he bowed His head, and gave up the ghost.

They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.

For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
Please pray for my eyesight, I've had vision trouble since I was a young kid but I fear it's getting worse. if it be in Gods will, may I see better.
Please pray for my family and I's spiritual lives. May we seek God everyday in all things & not be so complacent with sin in our lives or too busy to spend time with Him.
Please also pray for our family Bible studies. I'm going to be starting one with my cousin& hopefully brothers soon & they're not saved right now, but curious. May her and my brothers eyes be opened to the truth.
And lastly if it be on your hearts, please pray that I may find a husband with whom I can raise children with.
Thank you brothers and sisters, I will be keeping you guys in my prayers! Have a good day/night
( Deut 8:30) .."that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by EVERY WORD that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live".
The word (every) in Hebrew is #3605; it means the whole, hence all, any or every, to complete, (make) perfect. (MAKE PERFECT)!
( Mt 4:4) "But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD that proceedeth out of the mouth of God". (This IS prophecy for then, and prophecy for us today)
The word (every) in Greek is #3956; it means all, any, every, the whole. all (manner of, means).
( Jn 14:23-24) 23 "Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words , and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him". 24 "He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me".
The word (words) is #565; it means commandment, speech, something said.
The word (sayings) is #3056; it means something said (including the thought) the Divine Expression (i,e, Christ)
( Ps 12:6-7) 6 "The words of the LORD are (pure) words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth purified seven times". 7 "Thou shalt keep them O LORD, thou shalt ((preserve them from this generation for ever))". 7 times = 7 years = KJB
The word (pure) is #2889; it means pure (in a physical, chemical, ceremonial or moral sense) clean, sound, unadulterated, uncontaminated, innocent or holy.
( 2 Pet 1:19-21) 19 "a more sure word of prophecy". 20 "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation". We have that scripture today, and the New Testament in the KJB is that more sure word of prophecy!
21 "For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man; but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost".
The translators of the KJB were moved by the Holy Ghost to fulfill God's promise to preserve His Words for ever ( Ps 12:7)
Dear David i have prayed for your family today and for God to touch the lost people and draw them to him.Thank you for asking for prayer,love you brother.
Hello friends ,i want to ask you to be in prayer for my mom Paula ,the nursing home went thru her purse and took her meds without her consent.They claimed the dr. Didnt prescribe them.She is very angry and feels violated.I feel powerless because i am not that close to her,she is a distance and i dont drive.
First of all; the last sentence was somehow isolated from the proper text.
Secondly; I will need some time (probably until weeks end) to get more verses together related to God's attributes specifically related to being th Heavenly Father; as well as other unique characteristics of God. I still have an alphabetical "laundry list" as it were; but I am looking to focus on verses in this upcoming posting and perhaps attributes not easily assigned to one designation.
Here's the remaining ones that I have in alphabetical order; I have one person here who has some other ideas.

I'll leave perhaps an open forum here for other descriptions from A to Z. Eventually it is hard to avoid overlap of scriptures as many cover more than one concept and eventually; of course we could end up with most of the Bible for scriptures referenced on the subject!
It may seem redundant to speak of God being an attribute of God but His uniqueness nonetheless has certain characteristics. God sees; feels; hears and smells according to various scriptures. He is a jealous God and angry without sin; as well as having all other traits of perfection. Since man was created in God's image; we need not confine that just to physical appearance; in fact it is the invisible attributes of man such as the soul which we can also compare in some sense to the Spirit of God to get a better handle on His innermost thoughts in communing with Him.
Specifically as Father; God of course chastises all that He loves; He has adopted us into His family and of course He is a father to the fathrless. There certainly are verses where nursing mothers are brought up as well; God has tender attributes and through Christ the children were clearly on His heart (See Psalm 8); and we all have to be as children if we are able to enter the Kingdom of God ( Matthew 18:3). He has delegated authority to the Son; and we as firstfruits are also to be given authority to rule and reign over the earth after suffering here on earth ( 2 Tim. 2:12).
As God; of course we can look at the 3 "O"s (omnipotence; omnipresence; omnicience) or any other characteristics that make Him unique as compared to the rest of His creation. It is perhaps what we cannot understand that is the most profound; such as the subtle ways that He draws us to Him; ways that the Spirit moves which can't be readily defined by all known doctrines or specific scriptures; of unpredictability in case our comprehension somehow wants to confine Him to our own conceptualization of a box. Such things perhaps can be seen with why He has subtle markings on some creatures; novel stars in the universe etc. For every issue "solved" in science another mystery surfaces; man will never know it all
As God of course He can't sin; therrefore all that He says is truth. H
Hugging and kissing, generally touching, when meeting friends is very common and accepted here. People tend to be very emotional in my country and they don't hide it, actually they like it. On the other hand it is true that we live in an age where the sin in the world exceeds limit after limit (I am wondering what is coming next) and the society has changed radically lately especially during the last 10-15 years. People tend to be violent, without mercy and compassion for others. Crime and especially crime involving children becomes more and more frequent. People realize that and tend to not trust anybody, and they get suspicious and scared for their children. And it will get worse and worse like the Scriptures say about the people of the last times. But we, christians, must be the light and the aroma in this world.
On Friday I was invited to a wedding. A (true) christian wedding. All people, men and women, dressed properly, behaving properly...a very good impression. There were people that were invited that weren't christians(just christians by custom, but not true ones). They were surprized by the way people were dressed and behaved. When one goes to a secular wedding, the first thing they notice is the nudity of women (I don't mean anything about women, it is just the fashion today). Men full with tattoos, unshaved, etc etc. (fashion as well). A very bad impression. In the old times the Greek Orthodox church wouldn't permit people like that entering the churches. But this has changed now and nobody reacts, and things get worse and worse. So those people were nicely surprized. They really liked the wedding and some asked if they could come sometime and visit our church. This is how we can attract peope to Christ. People still understand what is right and what is wrong. And the right things attract people, at least the sincere ones. Well we started from the "holy" kiss. Yes Paul talks about holy kiss, initiating from a holy love, God's love. GBU
Heavenly Father, yes, RicoUS is right. Some of us have been waiting for years for the manifestation of God's healing power. Lord Jesus please bring victory from these battles. For three years we have been pleading for a miracle for me and now Lord our daughter was diagnosed as having cancer just last week. O Lord answer RicoUS prayer for my daughter and me. Heavenly Father, I ask for You to answer RicoUS personal prayers. RicoUS is my brother. Amen
Saints, I ask that you please agree with my husband and I for healing for our daughter, Monique. She was diagnosed with colon cancer that has spread to her liver and lungs last week. She has been healthy her entire life.
Then overnightshe is dying. So, from now on we will no longer claim she is sick, we claim a miracle. All for the glory and honor to our living God.
Our Heavenly Father sent Jesus to destroy the works of satan. By Jesus' stripes she plus all my brothers and sisters who need healing are healed.
Father please move mountains in our lives, please send the deliverance we have been waiting for so long. Asking for strong protection and breakthrough for us and all in need. Lord Jesus please fight our battles ( Ex. 14:14). Please send strength and encouragement and please also help with these conflicts and cares. Help us to cast them on you. Amen.
Lord Jesus please in your mercy grant healing to Gigi and her loved ones. Please protect and strengthen them Lord. Thank you. In your holy name I pray. Amen.
I will pray for your son's salvation when I pray often for the salvation of my three sons and the children of others on this site who have asked the same blessing for their children. We love our children. When ours were born and we brought them up in the faith we did not imagine that they would become prodigals and for so long. But I trust that God will woo them back and bring them to Jesus once again. I keep on praying for this, because we are instructed to persist in prayer, especially for that which is within His will. He will certainly do what He has willed.
The Lord is my healer. Our bodies are made truly amazingly resilient all things considered, especially that we are in the process of dying (due to sin) even as we are born. Getting some pretty big bruises from this fall but they are not too painful. My neck is hurting though, and so will be icing that over the next few days. Must have injured the neck when my jaw hit the table in a sideways fashion. I guess I will need to be more careful about keeping my balance.
Yes, Jema, Galatians 3:28 says we are all one in Christ without rank, but equal and equally blessed with the workings of the Holy Spirit.
I am certainly aware that what women, you and myself included, say in fellowship with others may not be accepted by some men due to the verse discussed in Giannis' post, (but he is not one of them) but each man or woman is to be obedient to the promptings and instructions of the Holy Spirit as to what to say to and what to receive from other believers regardless of their gender. You and I are responsible for what we say and do not need to own what others are willing to receive. If their convictions towards receiving biblical insights from women don't allow them to do so, then I believe God will bring the same insights to them from a man in the future according to His will. So I don't fret over this.
I am thankful for this forum and blessed by those who participate. Being pretty much a homebody since Covid and retirement, I don't get a chance each day to share insights with others outside my family often, so this forum allows for us to use our minds that God has blessed us with that are being transformed by the Spirit to be as the mind of Christ.
As always, I keep you and yours in prayer due to your persistence in asking, which is suc a good thing to do. May this day be more blessed that yesterday for you and family.
It is a great again to be in the number one more time! Thank you Father God for awakening me up this morning and starting me on my day. You are truly grateful to your children and I heartedly thank you. Continue to heal my mom and my dear friend that is in the hospital. I pray for full recovery for them and everyone else who is sick and shut in. Lord Thank you!!!
do you perceive what the Holy Spirit of Truth is revealing here?
Hebrews 6:1
therefore leaving the doctrines of Christ---not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works. meaning sinning & repenting as a way of a Christian life
one of these doctrines was that of baptisms, its in the plural form, He's distinguishing from John's, which was only a type & shadow of Christ baptism. John only reach to the cleansing of the flesh, symbolic of the ritual cleansing of the Jewish law, which he was under.
Christ, the Substance brought the better things to come, the baptism that John point to & desired, it reaches to the heart, the center & seat of our very being. Hebrews 9:14
Cleansing out the seeds of the evil one. Hebrews 10:22 evil conscience--his presence must be there Mark 7:21
Thus, Holy Spirit is revealing there's Ephesians 4:5 that's required to reach to this state of perfection were we sin no more.
Friends, as I lay here, after responding to bro Dan last thread, I continue to feel the springs from the Fountain of Life bubbling up within me, my cup is running over, so I added then added again to that which I received,
