  • Seeking the Favor of God - In Reply - 3 years ago
    The favor of God can be described as "tangible evidence that a person has the approval of the Lord." When we favor someone, we want to be with him or her. We delight in him/her. We connect with him/her in a way we don't connect with everyone else. We usually favor people who also favor us. IN THE SAME WAY, God shows favor to the ones who delight in, connect with, and give honor to Him. Isaiah 66:2 says, "These are the ones I look on with favor: those who are humble and contrite in spirit, and who tremble at my word." 2 Chronicles 16:9 says, "For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong on behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him." To be "perfect" toward Him means we seek His favor more than we seek the favor of anyone else, even ourselves.

    Proverbs 8:35; "For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favor of the LORD."

    Psalms 5:12 "For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favor wilt thou compass him as with a shield."

    Proverbs 3:4; "So shalt thou find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and man."

    Satisfy me Lord with favor and fill me with blessing in the name of Jesus!

    In the mighty name of Jesus, I claim...

    -help reading your Word, daily

    - divine wisdom from your Word

    - patience with my family

    - divine favor in family and business

    - prosperity, bless tithes and offerings

    -shield me from satanic attacks

    -help finding a better job, home

    - lend me angelic support

    - the release of finances

    Isaiah 26:3

    You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you, because he trusts in you.

    Luke 13:11; John 5:5; Acts 10:38; Acts 3:2; Acts 4:9

    Speaking words of faith strengthen your spirit. Stay strong and you will be blessed for it.

    Brother Rick:

    Isaiah 1:26 And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counselors as at the beginning: afterwards thou shall be called; The city of righteousness, the faithful city.

    Psalms 2:10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

    Proverbs 8:16 By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth.

    Psalms 149:9 To execute upon them the judgement written: this honour has all his saints.

    1 Corinthians 6:2 Do you not know the saints shall judge the world?

    Revelation 2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works until the end, will I give power over nations:

    Revelation 2:27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter they shall broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.

    Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved you.

    Sorry I realize without follow-up, 1st response a little unclear & not finished. The "independant" 3rd party research done about Autism linked to vaccinations, found: the liquid metals within the vacs to inject, [liquid metals like mercury become fluid before 90 at 90 we can remove impurities/other ingredient out of the metal like in simple water bath] [the mercury would sink to the bottom & other ingredient would float] [that's why mercury & other metals have reproductive health warning, because of settling within lowest parts of human body, when abortion occurs, through skin etc.]

    The increase of Autism, increased in States where Vaccination was 'requried' their scientific evidence found it effected "normal' children, beforehand then Autistic after vaccination because certain individuals were not able to absorb the metals.

    Hopefully this is helpful.

    I believe Romans 8:28, Luke 12:12,

    I believe through the experiences I've been through, trained & learned it's for the good of THE BODY of CHRIST. Matthew 10:8,

    Even with that said I am not an "Anti-vaxer" I believe we have the HOLY Spirit to guide us in all things. John 16:13, however we should all have the choice.

    Just because something was helpful, beneficial in the past doesn't mean we should put faith or trust in it now or future. Psalms 118:8, PsalmS 40:40

    The most recent vaccination actually has debate because of worse ingredients (graphite, which have high heat & electrical conductivity) & other very controversial 'evil' ingredients. Psalms 106:36-39

    GENESIS 1

    14 And God said, Let there be LIGHTS in the firmament of the HEAVEN to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

    15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

    16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the STARS also.

    17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

    18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

    19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

    No offense, but your claims are hollow. God made all provision for mankind. Read Proverbs 8:21-36

    The Bible, the ENTIRE BIBLE; is about a person: JESUS CHRIST. From Genesis to Revelation.

    > IF HE HAD WANTED TO INCLUDE A CHAPTER explaining: space, what's under the oceans, land masses, and all that scientific jazz__no scientists, archaeologists, geologists, Vulcanologists, meteorologists etc would've been able to be BORN AGAIN. Science was to teach them SOMEONE MADE ALL OF THIS!!! Romans chapter 1.

    In saying what you did, as Romans 1 says: You are without excuse. You've kicked the GODHEAD to the proverbial Curb.

    Genesis 1:1

    The Father purposes

    The Word (Jesus) speaks. ( John 1:1)

    The Spirit (Holy Spirit) Action. executes the spoken word.

    You can't imagine anyone greater than you are. Worshipping stars and planets carries a death sentence. I used to be one of those people. And then Jesus appeared to me in a vision. I saw Him.

    2 Timothy 3:5. I was teaching something that had no power. He's the only one who can save you from the darkness just out of our range of sight. You haven't a clue what you are missing out on: Knowing personally the Person who made all of this. Knowing his mind, his heart, his voice in your spirit. Telling you that you are LOVED.

    Why say "If a man love me ... my Father will love him" ( John 14:23a) if the Father loves everybody? Proverbs 8:17 says, "I love them that love Me." Psalm 5:5 says, "Thou hatest all workers of iniquity" Notice it doesn't say works of iniquity; it says workers. This verse alone is a flat out repudiation of the teaching that, God hates sin but loves the sinner. Scripture says that "God is angry with the wicked every day." ( Psalm 7:11) John 3:36 says, "He that believeth not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abideth on him" Can God "love" the one on whom His "wrath" abides? Finally, Romans 9:13 says, As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

    Paul asks rhetorically, "What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? God forbid. For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion." Romans 9:14-15.

    As for the verses you cite to suggest that I am violating God's "love" command, those verses are directed to the community of believers in Christ. What applies to believers does not apply to those who believe and promote a false gospel and serve the god of this world. That's why I said before that you are not my brother. Jesus told the Pharisees, "ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep." The tares and the wheat look alike until they produce fruit and are ready for harvest. The tares turn black and their fruit is poison; the wheat turns golden brown and its fruit is life sustaining. You and most people who identify as Christians are tares sown by Satan. Most people can't see the difference between the the wheat and tares because they look so much alike. It's been my experience that the tares hate the truth and openly resist it and they attack those who hold the truth in God's written word. This is how I know that you and your like-minded fellows on this site are tares full of hatred for the truth of Scripture and those who promote the gospel of grace.

    My brother gambles with a friend for points only. They have fun. I like Yahtzee; it's just a game right? I like Fish Pond with my grandson too :D

    I look in Proverbs for wisdom.

    PROVERBS 19:4

    Wealth maketh many friends; but the poor is separated from his neighbour.

    PROVERBS 28:26

    He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.

    JEREMIAH 17:11

    As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool.

    Proverbs 6:15

    Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.

    Proverbs 8:10

    Receive my instruction, and not silver; and knowledge rather than choice gold.

    Proverbs 10:4

    He becometh poor that dealeth with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent maketh rich.

    Proverbs 11:29

    He that troubleth his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.

    16 These six things doth the LORD HATE: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

    17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

    18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

    19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

    Proverbs 8:13 - The fear of the LORD is to HATE evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

    Proverbs 11:2 - When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.

    Proverbs 16:5 - Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.

    Proverbs 16:18 - Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.

    Proverbs 26:12 - Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.

    Proverbs 27:2 - Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.

    Proverbs 29:23 - A man's pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.

    Jeremiah 9:23 - Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches:

    Romans 12:16 - Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

    Galatians 6:3 - For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

    James 4:6 - But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

    GOD did not create TIME in Genesis 1, or around 6.000 years ago, no, absolutely no.

    What prevails is the Word of GOD, do you agree? The WORD is GOD.

    Proverbs 8:v.22-23 and 30-31CJB, among others: (CJB-Complete Jewish Bible)

    22 "Adonai made me as the beginning of his way,

    the FIRST of His ancient works.

    23 I was appointed before the world,

    before the start, before the earth's beginnings.

    30 I was with Him as someone He could trust.

    For me, every DAY was pure delight,

    as I played in His presence ALL THE TIME.

    31 playing everywhere on His earth,

    and delighting to be with humankind.

    Many times before the GOD's Plan of retoration of all things, as was revealed to Moses, i.e. Genesis, there was a multitude in the Garden of Eden ruled by a Cherub, the son of morning, but today is the sosns of perdition, the man of sin. Isaiah 14:v.12 to 15 reveal:

    12 "How did you come to fall from the heavens,

    morning star, SON of the dawn?

    How did you come to be cut to the GROUND,

    conqueror of NATIONS?

    13 You thought to yourself, 'I will scale the heavens,

    I will raise my throne above God's stars. (God's stars? Read Daniel 3)

    I will sit on the Mount of ASSEMBLY

    far away in the NORTH. (In the NORTH? Psalm 48:v.2 CJB - (2) beautiful in its elevation, the joy of all the earth,

    Mount Tziyon, in the far NORTH, the City of the Great King. See, the City of the Great King is in the NORTH)

    14 I will rise past the tops of the clouds,

    I will make myself like the Most High.'

    15 "Instead you are brought down to Sh'ol,

    to the uttermost depths of the pit.

    GOD - the Word is GOD - has not begining , neither ending, GOD is from Eternity to Eternity, JESUS is the beginning and the ending, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

    Here is a beautiful passage with wisdom speaking This is from the King James Bible. Proverbs Chap9 is about wisdom too

    Wisdom's Call: Proverbs chapter 8.

    Proverbs 8:1-4

    1.Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?

    2.She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.

    3.She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.

    4.Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man....

    Proverbs 8:22-36

    22.The Lord possessed me (Wisdom) in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.

    23.I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.

    24.When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

    25.Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:

    26.While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.

    27.When he prepared the heavens I was there: when he set a compass on the face of the depth:

    28.When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:

    29.When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment:

    when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

    30.Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;

    31.Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.

    32.Now therefore hearken unto me O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my my ways.

    33.Hear instruction and be wise, and refuse it not.

    34.Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, waiting at the posts of my doors.

    35.For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favour of the LORD.

    36.But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.

    Hello Janoyce,

    Just to expand a little more to the truth S Spencer shared with you. As recently someone had a question similar to yours. The Love of God, Jesus Christ, is beyond what we can imagine. What I perceive as more important to ask is "do I love Jesus Christ"?

    God is Holy and hates sin. To repent from the sins of this world, giving your life to Him, and live to do His Will is very important. I will just leave a couple Scriptures for you showing how important it is for us to love Him with all our heart, soul, and mind. Our love for Him shall not be forgotten.

    Deuteronomy 7:9, Deuteronomy 10:12-13, Psalms 31:23, Psalms 97:10, Psalms 145:20, Proverbs 8:17, John 14:21,

    James 1:12, James 2:5,

    God Bless.
  • Edwin L Muir on 1 Kings 18 - 3 years ago
    After 46 years of finding a grace to raise my hands in thankful worship when a gratefulness graces me to do so. Ive been so encouraged of late with Ps 141:2. And now with this bold testimony of Elijahs again.Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice. My assembly does not lean readilly to this but an increase over the years, especially among the more earnest 30 to 40 aged women. We are a 1 Cor 11:1 to 16 Apostolic people. 1940s to the 80s Six of the Seven Presbyterian Wilson brothers were filled with the Holy *GHOST* with Jude 20 KJV manifestation, and started Six Churches throughout New Zealand. The reticent Seveth son, Fred Wilson was moved to plant The Church of Christ NZ Mt Roskill, which has satelite branches as does their planting in Osaka a Sister fellowship. A strong KJV base they were until Fred Wilson, the Apostles passing, later allowed the NKJV to usurp the KJV veracity, and personally I say sadly, as the fire has shown a weakening since. Verses messed with, not just spoil memory treasures but :weaken > John 1:12 to :confuse >meek with gentle to a : great travesty> Jeremiah 23 33 to 40 where the confusing wordoracle replacing the word burden. Removing the severe warning to any who even hint at the *ETERNAL ALMIGHTY* being able to be burdened in any way, Isaiah 40:17. Especially when such grace offered to the weakest Saint who would receive it 2 Cor 9:8. And the word may is slipping into the Benediction decree. And to put prayer into an always bowed head stance, is robbing us all of the great need to be instant in prayer, even at least one hand authoritatively raised at certain times. Form is replacing intimacy and power, which can only lead to infirmity at length, as we all are so faithfully chastened betimes. Revelation 3:19, *G* B Uall, Ps 138:8 Proverbs 8:30,31KJV. Philippians 1:6 will perform for the faithful, but those who neglect shall be counted among the lukewarm Prov 29:1.
  • Chris - In Reply on Isaiah 26 - 3 years ago
    That's Proverbs 8:13, but in any case, the biblical definition of evil, as I understand it, is 'any physical or mental act by anyone that contradicts or violates God's Holiness, His Commands & His Requirements'.

    Where evil began, was in the heavenlies, as the "covering cherub" ( Ezek 28:14,15), using his power of choice, allowed pride to develop in a skewed way resulting in anger & rebellion against the Most High. He, as all the beings in God's Presence, ought to have been 'proud' to be created to worship & serve the Eternal God, living in all Holiness & Perfection, but Satan allowed what ought to be directed towards God to be reversed & directed to himself. And that has been the root of man's sin from the beginning: that he can be as God, to fulfil his own will & desires, disregarding what is true & holy. From the 'smallest white lie' to the most heinous of crimes, they all demonstrate man's pride to believe that he has the power to rule his life, for he alone is the god of his life.
  • Richard in Christ - In Reply on John 3 - 4 years ago
    Hello Brooke,

    I like your question because it is the same thing I used to think. In my belief. Once you are saved by the Lord Jesus Christ and have a personal relationship with God there is no more need to fear Him. As pure love, for Him, will take over and your entire life with everything you do surrounds Him. In living your life after the foot steps of Christ. Living a life that makes God happy. After repentance from things of this world and living a life of Holiness, grace, and truth. Actually doing our best seriously to stay away from the sins of this world because that is what makes God happy.

    Another way to look at it is the Hebrew word "yirah" for "fear" can also mean "respect, reverence, or piety". Hopefully people won't take this the wrong way and that I don't think there should be fear of God. As one of the verses states, that Adam posted, how God is Almighty and can destroy the body and soul of the evil and wicked. Sometimes fear is what may drive people toward God. Of coarse you have to believe in Him first which is a big problem in this world today.

    So if you truly have an intimate relationship with God. There is no need to fear Him as love overcomes fear. Of coarse your respect and reverence for Him will be through your love. Living your life for Him. Your true love will shine to Him. Here's a couple verses you may like. God Bless you sister.

    The favor of God can be described as "tangible evidence that a person has the approval of the Lord." When we favor someone, we want to be with him or her. We delight in him/her. We connect with him/her in a way we don't connect with everyone else. We usually favor people who also favor us. IN THE SAME WAY, God shows favor to the ones who delight in, connect with, and give honor to Him. Isaiah 66:2 says, "These are the ones I look on with favor: those who are humble and contrite in spirit, and who tremble at my word." 2 Chronicles 16:9 says, "For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong on behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him." To be "perfect" toward Him means we seek His favor more than we seek the favor of anyone else, even ourselves.

    Proverbs 8:35; "For whoso findeth me findeth life, and shall obtain favor of the LORD."

    Psalm 5:12 "For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favor wilt thou compass him as with a shield."

    Proverbs 3:4; "So shalt thou find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and man."

    Satisfy me Lord with favor and fill me with blessing in the name of Jesus!

    I am happy to hear you are a sister in Christ. I know sometimes our hunger for the Word of God can grow in leaps & bounds.

    I've kind of adopted a lifestyle of methods to satisfy my thirst and hunger for Gods Word through scripture. I seem to experience more growth through praise and worship and just sitting quietly beside my bed on the floor, before the Lord: listening for His voice.

    King David frequently sat quietly before the Lord: Psalm 63:6, Proverbs 8:34

    I stay in touch with the prophetic community through Youtube. You have to know some people... you don't want to hear false prophesy or teaching. If the Bible doesn't agree with it, then it's from the flesh.

    HMM Good question maybe its the people that were made on the 6th day and their decedents Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

    27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

    28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon
  • SUICIDE or LIFE IN THE SPIRIT - In Reply on Isaiah 13:10 - 4 years ago
    Hebrews 12:25 and 1 Corinthians 10:13 are the strongest scriptures for not committing suicide.

    If one is going to throw their lives away, why not give that life to Jesus? Give your life to Him, and take Jesus's Life so you can live. Call on Jesus and receive help.

    1 Corinthians 10:13

    There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a WAY TO ESCAPE, that ye may be able to bear it.

    1 Corinthians 3:16-17 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

    Ecclesiastes 7:17 Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest thou die before thy time?

    Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

    James 4:7-10 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

    Romans 14:7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

    1 Corinthians 6:19-20 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

    1 John 1:9 - If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

    John 16:33 - These things I have spoken unto you, that IN ME you might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

    Proverbs 8:36

    But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.

    If they will trust Jesus and be born again

    John 3, and receive the Holy Spirits baptism; God will turn your spirit ON and you will experience a new, different kind of life. People who are alive spiritually can suddenly HEAR the voice of their Heavenly Father, speaking to them through their innermost being. The Holy Spirit comes alongside to Comfort and protect the new Life. Do it.

  • Paul on Exodus 9 - 4 years ago
    Proverbs 8:27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:

    We existed with God before the world was formed.

    And there was a war in heaven.

    Pharaoh killed Israel's first born males to genocide Israel.

    I believe once Pharaoh acted to destroy God's people, he lost his free agency and God then showed His power thru Pharaoh and Moses destroying all the first born males of Egypt.

    We are in a battle of good and evil.

    The battle is real.

    So real, God gave His Only Begotten Son for God so loved the world.

    I'm a Mormon.

    I am passionate in my faith in Christ.

    I will discuss my beliefs but if you are derogative I will be derogative.
  • Paul on Exodus 9 - 4 years ago
    Why would God harden pharaoh's heart and use Pharaoh to destroy and show His power?

    Paul says, For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power"

    I believe the answer involves a pre-existence, meaning we existed before we came to earth.

    Pharaoh was a vessel of dishonor and would not purge himself becoming a vessel of honor.

    Scriptures verifying a pre-existence:

    Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

    Romans 11:2 God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying ...

    1 Peter 1:20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you ...

    Psalms: 90:1-2 (A Prayer of Moses the man of God.) Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.



    Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.

    Proverbs: (Wisdom, she is speaking of being with the Lord before and during Earth's creation)

    Proverbs 8:4 Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.

    Proverbs 8:30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;

    Proverbs 8:23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.

    Proverbs 8:24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

    Proverbs 8:24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.

    Proverbs 8:25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:

    Proverbs 8:26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
  • Mishael - In Reply on Numbers 28:15 - 4 years ago
    You need to get another Bible with center of the page reference columns. Each alphabet or number refers to another scripture that adds more illumination to the first. Some are current to that time or they are prophetic (future). You have to get what you need to study these things deeper. Sometimes you have to buy reference books. I highly recommend a large print encyclopedia with a full concordance. Try AbeBooks to get previously owned. Google them.

    Here is a few on Leviticus

    16:5 see Lev 4:14, Numbers 29:11, 2 Chron. 29:21, Ezra 6:17, Ezekiel 45:22

    16:8. See chapter 9:7, Hebrews 7:27-28

    16:9 see Proverbs 16:33

    16:10 see Isaiah 53:4-10, Romans 3:25,

    2 Corinthians 5:21, 1 John 2:2

    At the end of all that you will see that Jesus was the Scapegoat for us. He has already made atonement for us.

    You're going to have to look this all up and then ask THE HOLY SPIRIT to teach you what it means today. He's your Teacher.

    It means prayer on your part, and turning off all racket to sit quietly before the Lord for answers. You will be amazed at what you learn. Psalm 63:6 and Proverbs 8:34
  • Mishael on Laborers in the Harvest - In Reply on Matthew 28:19 - 4 years ago
    Your gift is much needed in the prayer request room. Don't go away.

    Speaking as an old street minister/ evangelist from the 80's... God still works through us.

    I didn't go to college or seminary! I Have been in the school of the Holy Spirit for the past 35 years! He teaches me everything He wants me to know.



    All I have to do is sit still and Listen.

    Psalm 63:6, proverbs 8:34

    I'm not going to get into testimony now. I'd rather talk about the Holy Spirit. Come over to those who seek help from God; who need someone who can pray with wisdom and discernment.

    Matthew 24:37 - But as the days of Noe (Noah) were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

    Mat 24:38 - For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

    Mat 24:39 - And knew not until the flood came, and took (WHO?) them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of

    man be.

    Mat 24:40 - Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

    Mat 24:41 - Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

    Mat 24:42 - Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

    The WICKED were TAKEN and Noah was LEFT BEHIND at the end of the flood.

    Luke 17:26 - And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

    The WICKED were TAKEN and Noah was LEFT BEHIND

    1 Peter 3:20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.

    The WICKED were TAKEN FIRST and Noah was LEFT BEHIND

    Luk 17:27 - They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

    Luke 17:28 - Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

    Lot was left behind - the wicked were taken

    Luke 17:29 - But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

    Luke 17:30 - Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

    So do we want to be taken or left behind?

    Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
