DProDG:You can change the name but guess work is still guess work. It is only foolish people that take guess work as fact. |

Weah96:Well, I don't know. All I know is that evil was found in him. |

Pr0ton:Why don't you use your head to reason out love and see how it goes. Or do you use your head to find out if you are in love or not? My friend there are certain things you can't use your head to find out but you can search your heart and find the truth there. |

Hiswordxray: Illiteracy at its highest peak. Every thought, whether love or not, is sited in your brain. The heart, I repeat, is useless in this aspect. Only the illiterate and ignorant would think we think and reason with the heart. The Bible writers are no exception. 3 Likes |

Pr0ton:You know I'm not talking about literal heart (the organ). I'm talking about the right side of our brain that is dominant in emotions and feelings. |

Hiswordxray: This one got me laughing. Search your heart? For real? Like the heart is a memory center or some sort of storage device. Why are religious people inherently dumb? 2 Likes |

Hiswordxray: Good. So we are gradually leaving the heart and moving to the brain. So consequently, Bart Erhman has no criticization from you. Huh? |

Joshthefirst:Or maybe God too doesn't think when He put this in the Bible: "You are blameless in all you did from the day you were created until the day evil was found in you." (Ezekiel 28:15). He are brother, I love you and I don't what to argue with you. But if I'm saying things you don't understand you should go ahead and make your brother look like a fool in front of these carnal men. And if you want to voice out you should have approach me and I would try to explain myself, instead of implying that I don't think. Please show love to your fellow brother. |

Hiswordxray:How have I made you look like a fool? ?? Edit: I wasn't implying you didn't think. I was implying the person who asked where "evil was" didn't think. The post was addressed to him, not you. |

Hiswordxray:I may have overestimated your English comprehension... guesswork- ˈɡɛswəːk/ noun the process or results of guessing. guess- ɡɛs/ verb estimate or conclude (something) without sufficient information to be sure of being correct. unfalsifiable- adjective un·fal·si·fi·able \ˌən-ˌfȯl-sə-ˈfī-ə-bəl\ not capable of being proved false. How are these even related? |
Re: Who Is God Jealous Of? by Hiswordxray(m): 5:21pm On Mar 12, 2015 |
DProDG:Same thing. guess work is guess work no matter how you present it. |

ooman:my good friend, long time. Psalm 139:23 Search me, God, and KNOW my heart; test me and know my anxious THOUGHT. Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts. Examine me, and see if I have not represented my feelings as they really are. Keep on always searching me out and "trying my reins and my heart" (Psalm 26:2). My desire is to be proved and tested. |

SHALOM! plaetton: THE TYPICAL OYINBO ATHEIST FINDS THAT HE IS UNABLE TO FIND A LOGICAL ARGUMENT AGAINST GOD- THEREFORE, HAVING NO POINT IN HIS LIFE, THE ATHEIST LIES ABOUT THE BIBLE, IN ORDER TO BLUFF THAT HE HAS A POINT. [The WOMAN Atheist merely follows the lead of some MALE Atheist- being incapable of sinking to such depths of unawareness without a suitable anchor. Women are reminded one-a-month, from MENARCHE to MENOPAUSE, that there IS a SUPERIOR POWER to themselves, whose Will they cannot Deny.] . EXODUS 20:1-7. AND God spake all these Words, saying, 2. "I [am] The LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the House of Bondage. 3. "Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4. "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in Heaven above, or that [is] in the Earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the Earth: 5. "Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I The LORD thy God [am] a Jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth [generation] of them that hate Me; 6. "And shewing Mercy unto thousands of them that love Me, and keep My Commandments. 7. "Thou shalt not take The Name of the LORD thy God in vain; for The LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh His Name in vain." . EXODUS 34:12-16. 12. "Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a Covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee: 13. "But ye shall destroy their Altars, break their images, and cut down their groves: 14. "For thou shalt worship no other god: for The LORD, whose Name is Jealous, is a jealous God: 15. "Lest thou make a Covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his Sacrifice; 16. "And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods." . DEUTERONOMY 4:23-24. 23. "Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget The Covenant of The LORD your God, Which He made with you, and make you a Graven Image, or the likeness of any thing, which The LORD thy God hath forbidden thee. 24. For The LORD thy God is A Consuming Fire, even A Jealous God." . DEUTERONOMY 5:1-11. AND Moses called all Israel, and said unto them, "Hear, O Israel, the Statutes and Judgments Which I speak in your ears this day, that ye may learn them, and keep, and do them. 2. "The LORD our God made a Covenant with us in Horeb. 3. "The LORD made not This Covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day. 4. "The LORD talked with you face-to-face in the mount out of the midst of the Fire, 5. ["I stood between The LORD and you at that time, to shew you The Word of The LORD: for ye were afraid by reason of The Fire, and went not up into the mount;] saying, 6. 'I am The LORD thy God, Which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the House of Bondage. 7. 'Thou shalt have none other gods before Me. 8. "Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in Heaven above, or that is in the Earth beneath, or that is in the Waters beneath the Earth: 9. 'Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I The LORD thy God am a Jealous God, visiting the Iniquity of the fathers upon the Children unto the third and fourth Generation of them that Hate Me, 10. 'And shewing Mercy unto thousands of them that Love Me and keep My Commandments. 11. 'Thou shalt not take The Name of The LORD thy God in vain: for The LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh His Name in vain.' " . DEUTERONOMY 6:10-25. 10 And it shall be, when The LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not, 11. And houses full of all Good Things, which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full; 12. Then Beware lest thou forget The LORD, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the House of Bondage. 13. Thou shalt fear The Lord thy God, and serve Him, and shalt swear by his Name. 14. Ye shall not go after other gods, of the gods of the people which are round about you; 15. [For The LORD thy God is a Jealous God among you] lest The Anger of The Lord thy God be kindled against thee, and destroy thee from off The Face of the Earth. 16. Ye shall not tempt The LORD your God, as ye tempted Him in Massah. 17 Ye shall diligently keep The Commandments of The LORD your God, and His Testimonies, and His Statutes, Which He hath Commanded thee. 18. And thou shalt do that which is Right and Good in The Sight of The LORD: that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest go in and possess the Good Land which The LORD sware unto thy fathers, 19. To cast out all thine Enemies from before thee, as The LORD hath spoken. 20. And when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, "What mean the Testimonies, and the Statutes, and The Judgments, Which The LORD our God hath Commanded you?" 21. Then thou shalt say unto thy son, "We were Pharaoh's Bondmen in Egypt; and The LORD brought us out of Egypt with a Mighty Hand: 22. "And The Lord shewed Signs and Wonders, Great and Sore, upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his household, before our eyes: 23. "And he brought us out from thence, that he might bring us in, to give us the land which he sware unto our fathers. 24. "And The LORD Commanded us to do all these Statutes, to fear The LORD our God, for our Good always, that He might preserve us alive, as it is at this day. 25. "And it shall be our Righteousness, if we observe to do all These Commandments before The LORD our God, as He hath Commanded us." . JOSHUA 24:15-25. 15 And if it seem Evil unto you to serve The LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of The Flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve The LORD." 16. And the People answered and said, "God forbid that we should forsake The LORD, to serve other gods; 17. For The LORD our God, He it is that brought us up and our fathers out of the land of Egypt, from the House of Bondage, and which did Those Great Signs in our Sight, and preserved us in all the Way wherein we went, and among all the people through whom we passed: 18. And The LORD drave out from before us all the people, even the Amorites which dwelt in the land: therefore will we also serve The LORD; for He is our God." 19. And Joshua said unto the People, "Ye cannot serve The LORD: for He is an Holy God; He is a Jealous God; He will not forgive your Transgressions nor your Sins. 20. "If ye forsake The LORD, and serve strange gods, then He will Turn and do you Hurt, and Consume you, after that He hath done you Good." 21. And the people said unto Joshua, Nay; but we will serve The LORD. 22. And Joshua said unto the people, "Ye are witnesses against yourselves that ye have chosen you The LORD, to serve Him." And they said, "We are Witnesses." 23. "Now therefore put away," said He, "the strange gods which are among you, and incline your heart unto The LORD God of Israel." 24. And the people said unto Joshua, "The LORD our God will we serve, and His Voice will we obey." 25. So Joshua made a Covenant with the people that day, and set them a Statute and an Ordinance in Shechem. . EZEKIEL 39:21-29. 21. "And I will set My Glory among the Heathen, and all the Heathen shall see My Judgment that I have executed, and My Hand That I have laid upon them. 22. "So The House of Israel shall know that I am The LORD their God from that day and forward. 23. "And the Heathen shall know that The House of Israel went into Captivity for their Iniquity: because they trespassed against Me, therefore hid I My Face from them, and gave them into the Hand of their Enemies: so fell they all by the sword. 24. "According to their Uncleanness and according to their Transgressions have I done unto them, and hid My Face from them. 25. "Therefore thus saith The Lord God; 'Now will I bring again the Captivity of Jacob, and have Mercy upon The whole House of Israel, and will be Jealous for My Holy Name; 26. 'After that they have Borne their Shame, and all their Trespasses whereby they have Trespassed against Me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid. 27. 'When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, and Am Sanctified in them in The Sight of many Nations; 28. 'Then shall they know that I am The LORD their God, Which caused them to be led into Captivity among the Heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them any more there. 29. 'Neither will I hide My Face any more from them: for I have poured out My Spirit upon The House of Israel,' " saith The LORD God. . JOEL 2:18. 18. Then will The LORD be Jealous for His land, and pity His people. . NAHUM 1:1-3. THE Burden of Nineveh. The Book of the Vision of Nahum the Elkoshite. 2 God is Jealous, and The LORD Revengeth; The LORD Revengeth, and is Furious; The Lord will take Vengeance on His Adversaries, and He Reserveth Wrath for His Enemies. 3. The LORD is slow to Anger, and Great in Power, and will not at all Acquit the Wicked: The LORD hath His Way in the Whirlwind and in the Storm, and the Clouds are The Dust of His Feet. . ZECHARIAH 1:12-15. 12. Then The Angel of The LORD answered and said, "O LORD of Hosts, how long wilt Thou not have Mercy on Jerusalem and on the Cities of Judah, against which thou hast had Indignation these threescore and ten years?" 13 And The LORD answered The Angel that talked with me with Good Words and Comfortable Words. 14. So The Angel that communed with me said unto me, "Cry thou," saying, "Thus saith The LORD of Hosts; I am Jealous for Jerusalem and for Zion with a Great Jealousy. 15. "And I am very Sore Displeased with the Heathen that are at ease: for I was but a Little Displeased, and they helped forward the Affliction." . ZECHARIAH 8:1-8. AGAIN The Word of The LORD of Hosts came to me, saying, 2. "Thus saith The Lord of Hosts; I was Jealous for Zion with Great Jealousy, and I was Jealous for her with Great Fury. 3. 'Thus saith The LORD; I am Returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called A City of Truth; and the Mountain of The LORD of Hosts The Holy Mountain.' 4. "Thus saith The Lord of Hosts; 'There shall yet old men and old women dwell in the streets of Jerusalem, and every man with his staff in his hand for very age. 5. 'And the streets of the City shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets thereof.' 6. 'Thus saith The LORD of Hosts; 'If it be marvellous in the Eyes of the Remnant of this people in these days, should it also be Marvellous in mine Eyes?' " OF ALL THE SIXTEEN PLACES IN THE BIBLE WHERE THE WORD "JEALOUS" OCCURS, THESE ELEVEN SCIPTURES ARE WHERE THE TERM IS DIECTLY APPLIED TO GOD. The POINT being that YAHWEH GOD JUST RESCUED The Children of Israel from 400 years of SLAVERY. As HE PROMISED that He would to ABRAHAM. Are you insane or mentally-deficient, that you do not understand that THESE PEOPLE were SELECTED BY GOD- being created by HIS DIRECT INTERVENTION? . GENESIS 17:1-8. AND when Abram was ninety years old, and nine, The LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, "I (am) The Almighty God; walk before Me, and be thou perfect. 2. "And I will make My Covenant between Me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly." 3. And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying, 4. "As for Me, behold, My Covenant (is) with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. 5. "Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy Name shall be Abraham; for a Father of many nations have I made thee. 6. "And I will make thee exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. 7. "And I will establish My Covenant between Me and thee and thy Seed after thee in their Generations for an Everlasting Covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy Seed after thee. 8. "And I will give unto thee, and to thy Seed after thee, the Land wherein thou art a Stranger, all the Land of Canaan, for an Everlasting Possession; and I will be their God." GOD WANTED THIS ONE PEOPLE- THAT OWED HIM EVERYTHING- TO RUN ESSENTIAL MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS ON THE EARTH. No god cared for them. No god cares about fixing the Earth. Therefore Yahweh God could ill AFFORD for the Children of Israel to go worship the very Entities that were KILLING THEM, and spoiling the Earth. The universal definition of Jealousy is thus: INSTEAD OF HONOURING GOD FOR TRYING TO CREATE A POLICE FORCE TO SERVE AND PROTECT YOUR WORTHLESS LIFE, YOU RESPOND WITH BLASPHEMY? . PSALM 1:1-6. BLESSED is the man that walketh not in the Counsel of the Ungodly, nor standeth in the Way of Sinners, nor sitteth in the Seat of the Scornful. 2. But His Delight is in The Law of The LORD, and in His Law doth he meditate day and night. 3. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season, his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. 4. The Ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the Wind driveth away. 5. Therefore the Ungodly shall not stand in the Judgment, nor Sinners in the Congregation of the Righteous. 6. For The LORD knoweth The Way of the Righteous: but the Way of the Ungodly shall perish. THE FALSE GODS ARE DEGENERATED BEiNGS WHO DISGUISE THEMSELVES WITH HOLOGRAMS, TO HiDE THEIR TRUE NATURE. Theu create FALSE Religions in order to HERD Humans like DAIRY CATTLE, whom they drain of Spiritual Energy every Day- until only about 1% remains from day-to-day. Spiritual Discipline interferes with this process, so that our Energy Allotment PILES UP, until the state of HOLINESS is achieved, and the TEN TALENTS begin to rehabilitate. . THE TEN TALENTS. (Matt. 25:1-46) 1. TOTAL RECALL. 2. EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION. 3. TELEKINESIS. 4. TELEPORTATION. 5. TRANSLATION. 6-10. ETERNAL LIFE. THIS is what you should be focusing your attention on. |
