I have issue with the Holy Spirit being a person, or part of the man made trinity. Specifically, the Holy Spirit is "poured out", which doesn't describe a person. The Spirit is not a person that can be poured out. It's a Spirit and blessing from God.
Isaiah 44:3 "I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground; I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants."
The outpouring of the Spirit is a completed prophecy that ushered in the church age and the New Covenant in which all believers are given the Holy Spirit. Fact is the Holy Spirit has already come to us in salvation, and doesn't leave.
Hello, the Bible is 100% clear there is only one God. There are not many Gods. There are false gods, but they aren't real. There is only one real God. If you believe the Bible, it says this many times througout.
1 John 5:7 - this clearly says the father, son (Word), and spirit are one.
James 2:19
Isaiah 44:6
1 Timothy 2:5
So, if the 3 parts are one, and if there's only one God, then the 3 parts are not separate Gods, but part of the same one God. Just like the skin of an apple is an apple, and the core is an apple, and the seeds are an apple, it doesn't mean it's 3 apples, but the same one, just different functions.
Isaiah 7:14 14Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Isaiah 9:6 6For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 44:6 6Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
Prophesy Fulfilled
Matthew 1:21 Context 20But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. 21And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. 22Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet,
Revelation 22:13 13I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
John 1:3 Context 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Titles used in the Bible = Word, God, Spirit, Holy Spirit, Redeemer, Almighty Father, I AM, First & Last, Wonderful Counselor, Lord, Alpha and Omega, etc = all these titles belong to JESUS.
Brother Chris, the following might help us all to really know who our God is. As Christians, we all believe in God, but at one time or another, we were also exposed to the preaching of false teachers.
JESUS is LORD, God with biblical proofs, no Trinity
Old Testament Prophesy of Isaiah is very important, as his prophecy was fulfilled in the New Testament and revealed the name of God, whose name was kept secret in the Old Testament:
Isaiah 44:6 6Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
Isaiah 7:14 - Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
New Testament Prophet Isaiah prophecy fulfilled.
Matthew 1:24 Context 21And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. 22Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, 23Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
Apostle John in Revelation
Revelation 1:8 - 9 8I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. 9I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Revelation 22:13 13I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
Revelation 1:17 - 18 17And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: 18I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
Suzanne, May the Spirit grace you with his understanding of his words:
Do Gods creatures have FREE WILL; or, are we the WORKS of the creator?
Ephesians 1:11 In whom (Spirit) also we have obtained (by grace) an inheritance (children), being predestinated (you have not chosen me, but I have chosen you. John 15:16) according to the purpose of him (Spirit) who WORKETH all things after the counsel of HIS OWN WILL:
Philippians 2:13 For it is God (Spirit) which WORKETH in you both to WILL and to DO of his good pleasure.
Colossians 1:29 Whereunto, I (Paul) also labour, striving according to his (Spirit) WORKING, which WORKETH in me mightily.
Isaiah 26:12 Lord, thou (Spirit) wilt ordain peace for us: for thou (Spirit) also hast wrought (WORKED) all our WORKS in us.
Isaiah 44:26 ......that PERFORMETH the counsel of his (Spirit) messengers....
Psalm 57:2 I will cry unto God most high that PERFORMETH all things for me.
Proverbs 16: 33 The lot is cast into the lap (we were predestined); but the whole disposing (WORK) thereof is of the Lord (Spirit)
Proverbs 21:1 The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord (Spirit), as the rivers of water: he (Spirit) TURNETH it (man's heart) whithersoever he (Spirit) WILL.
Job 12:9 Who (man) knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord (Spirit) hath wrought (WORKED) this?
Job 23:14 For he (Spirit) PERFORMETH the things that is appointed (predestined) for me....
Job 23:10 But he (Spirit) knoweth the way that I take: when he (Spirit) has tried me, I shall come forth as pure gold.
Hebrews 4:3 For we which believed do enter into rest.....the WORKS (we are the works of the Spirit) were finished before the foundation of the world.
Hebrews 4:11 Let us (works of the Spirit) labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of UNBELIEF.
If you're enquiring about the meaning or use of this word, Jeshurun, then I share the following:
Jeshurun means 'upright one or blessed one'. It was a term of endearment applied to Jacob (Israel) as God's beloved, His special people. We see the word appearing in Isaiah 44:1,2; Deuteronomy 32:15, 33:5, 33:26,27.
Even though Israel often failed the God Who loved them dearly & provided for them, God still waited for them to return to Him & love Him instead of idols. God still through all this spiritual adultery, called them "Jeshurun".
The Word of God is God ( John 1:1) and is not of any private interpretation ( 2 Peter 1:20).
The natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of god: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them because they are spiritually discerned ( Cor. 2:14).
You cannot just change the word 'born' to 'baptize'. The word of God is not of any private interpretation. The water is the living water (Christ) and unless a person is born of the water and the Spirit , he cannot enter into the kingdom of God ( John 3:5; Isaiah 44:3,4; Matthew 3:11; Titus 3:5).
We invite you to study what it means to repent ( Acts 26:18) and the baptism of repentance ( Mark 1:4; Luke 3:3; Acts 13:24; 19:4), as it means a lot more than what by nature you have been conditioned to believe.
Water baptism and circumcision was an act of faith but could not save people. Then the next question should be asked: Faith in what?
Do you believe that God will break all of the promises He has made to Israel, the "apple of His eye?" ( Zechariah 2:8).
Are you convinced that He will just forget His chosen people ( Deuteronomy 7:6, Isaiah 44:1, etc., etc., etc.)
God is the Judge ( Psalms 54:1).
You search the Scriptures to try to condemn God's chosen people and call Jews cursed.
The Olive tree that your are trying to be grafted into as the wild branch are these same cursed Jews? Look at Romans 11:16-22.
And what are you going to do with the words of Luke in Acts 28:26-29?
Are we not going to believe another promise of God just so you can condemn our brothers?
26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:
27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.
29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
Will the Jews that love God not see and understand when the Messiah returns;
and "every knee" will bow? ( Romans 14:11, Philippians 2:11)
Matthew 24:36 is all red letter so that means Jesus is speaking. Listen. Mark it in your Bible.
"But of that day and hour knows NO man, no, not the angels of Heaven, BUT my FATHER ONLY."
Jesus is seated at the right hand of God, making intercession FOR THE SAINTS.
Don't wait till the last minute to be born again, tell people you love, about salvation, to talk to those who are ready to hear it. Put Chick tracts on windshields. Don't harden your hearts. Everyone spends time on Facebook and Twitter. We're all experts on talking. Make it count for a someone. It is time. Anybody remember Billy Graham? One of the greatest soul winners! He taught us on prophesy! It's not hard
Knowing that Jesus is our Lord and savior during these every day warnings of the caronavirus....we can be the Lord's witness of why we are not afraid....Jesus is Lord of all...and healer...his will show be ...
Hey Matt, scripture has alot to say about abortion. Simple answer, it's murder and an atrocious sin. Please read these passages. Jeremiah 1:5, Psalm 139:13-16, Job 10:8-12, 31:15, Isaiah 44:2, Psalm 127:2, Deuteronomy 27:25 30:19, Exodus 20:13. Scripture is clear that God has formed and made us all, and knows us in our mothers womb. So to kill that undelivered child is abomination in Gods eyes
Brianna, please read and ponder on these KJV Bible scriptures, and know that our Lord Jesus Christ was Almighty God. Titus 2:13Acts 20 28 Revelation 1:5-6Revelation 5:8-9Revelation 22:13Revelation 22:16Revelation 2:8Revelation 1:17-18Isaiah 9:6Isaiah 43:10-11Isaiah 44:6Isaiah 44:242 Peter 1:1John 1:3Colossians 1:16Colossians 2:9John 1:1-3John 5:17-18John 8:24.
As Yahchanan indicates, the entire Bible is an invitation to accept God and praise Him as the creator and ONLY GOD. There are but two choices: receive Jesus as savior or refuse to accept Him and pay the penalty.
The Holy Spirit only comes from God the True Creator of the world and man.
Lets be careful with spiritisism We may think that we have the Holy spirit from God and yet it is the spirit from other evil gods, which claim to have the 'holy'spirit also.
So many people are possessed with the evil spirits thinking that they have the holy spirit. Even healing in the name of the 'Holy' spirit. Beware!
Yes, the Lord has redeemed me. He has justified me. He has removed all records of my transgressions and sins out of my life. I am free!!! Praise the Lord!!!
Thanks to Jesus' ransom sacrifice we can have our sins blotted out. This doesn't mean that they completely go away but his ransom is so great that it covers over those sins and allows us to have a relationship with Jehovah God.
Israel Jantzen :JESUS CHRIST has already destroyed the temple (HIS body) on the cross and is building HIS new temple by everyone that receive HIM. All christens are apart of HIS temple, which HE is the head. Are you apart of HIS temple, if not ask HIM to accept you in, HE is love and waiting for all to be part of HIS temple.
Isa 44-45 say that Cyrus would rebuild the temple, but Ezra and Neh say that it was rebuilt during the reign of Darius, three kings later. That is not a contradiction if Cyrus is actually a type of Christ at his second coming, when Ezk 37 says Christ will build his own temple. Notice that that necessarily means that Christ will destroy the third temple that Israel is planning to build.
He that is of God will hear God's words; so then, the Jews who don't believe in Jesus Christ are not of God. And the Lord Jesus said to them, If you will not believe that I AM, you will die in your sins. "Many shall come from the east and from the west, and shall sit down with Abraham and all the Prophets in the kingdom of God; but the children of the kingdom shall be cast out."
Isaiah 44:3 "I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground; I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants."
The outpouring of the Spirit is a completed prophecy that ushered in the church age and the New Covenant in which all believers are given the Holy Spirit. Fact is the Holy Spirit has already come to us in salvation, and doesn't leave.
