Ken4Christ:
You must be on drugs. Keep joking until the day you are left behind because it will take place in our generation.

E go shock you! The world is not controlled by your wishes. The Words of prophecy were very precise and if you did not see it, it means that you are one of those who Christ referred to as "having eyes yet see not and having ears, yet hear not, like idols"

You business anyway for you have a right to murder your own self.

SeniorMan715:
Throughout history, people from many backgrounds have considered the Bible to be a reliable source of truth. Today,
millions follow its teachings. Yet others dismiss the Bible as being irrelevant or fictitious.
What do you think? Can you find truth in the Bible?
Truthful Writers
Bible writers were very honest, often revealing their own mistakes and failings.
For example, the prophet Jonah wrote about his own disobedience. ( Jonah 1:1-3)
In fact, he concluded his Bible book by revealing how God chastised him, yet he made no mention of how he corrected his own attitude. ( Jonah 4:1, 4, 10, 11) The honesty of all the Bible writers indicates their sincere concern for truth.
Practical Truth
Does the Bible always give sound advice about practical matters? It certainly does. For example, note what the Bible says about maintaining healthy relationships: “All things, therefore, that you want men to do to you, you also must do to them.” ( Matthew 7:12) “A mild answer turns away rage, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” (Proverbs 15:1) Yes, Bible truths remain as practical today as the day they were written.
Historical Truth
Many archaeological discoveries over the years verify the existence of various peoples and places and the accuracy of events mentioned in the Bible. As an example, consider the evidence for one minor detail. The Bible states that in the time of Nehemiah, Tyrians (Phoenicians from Tyre) who lived in Jerusalem “were bringing in fish and all kinds of merchandise.”​— Nehemiah 13:16.
Is there any evidence to support this Bible verse? Yes, there is.
Archaeologists have discovered Phoenician goods in Israel,
suggesting trade between the two ancient nations. Furthermore, in Jerusalem, the remains of Mediterranean fish have been unearthed. Archaeologists believe that the fish were brought from the distant coast by merchants. After analyzing the evidence, one scholar concluded: “The statement in Nehemiah] 13:16 that the Tyrians sold fish in Jerusalem is quite plausible.”
Scientific Truth
The Bible is primarily a religious and historical book. But when it touches on scientific matters, it
harmonizes with true science. Note one example.
About 3,500 years ago, the Bible stated that the earth is suspended “upon nothing.” ( Job 26:7) This differed greatly from the myths that described the earth as floating on water or being carried by a giant tortoise. Some 1,100 years after the book of Job was written, people continued to believe that the earth could not just hang in midair; it had to have something to rest upon. Only three hundred years ago, in 1687, Isaac Newton published his work on gravity and explained that the
earth is held in orbit by an invisible force. This scientific
milestone confirmed what the Bible had stated more than 3,000 years earlier!
Prophetic Truth
How accurate are the Bible’s many prophecies? Consider one example: Isaiah’s prophecy about the fall of Babylon.
The Prophecy: In the eighth century B.C.E., the Bible writer Isaiah declared that Babylon​ which was only later to become the capital of a powerful empire—​would be overthrown and eventually become uninhabited. ( Isaiah 13:17-20) Isaiah even named the man who would carry this out​ Cyrus. He also described
Cyrus’ strategy, stating that rivers would “dry up.” And he foretold that the city gates would be left open.​— Isaiah 44:27– 45:1.
The Fulfillment: Some 200 years after Isaiah’s prophecy, a Persian king attacked Babylon. His name? Cyrus. Because Babylon was heavily fortified, Cyrus turned his attention to the Euphrates River, which ran through the city. His men dug a canal upstream to divert the river into a marshland. This dropped the river level enough to make it possible for Cyrus’ army to march through the thigh-deep water of the riverbed,
which adjoined the city walls. Incredibly, the Babylonians had left the gates that faced the river open! Cyrus’ army entered Babylon through the open gates and overthrew it.
However, one detail remained: Did Babylon become uninhabited? For some centuries, people continued living there. But today, Babylon’s ruins​ near Baghdad, Iraq— testify to the prophecy’s complete fulfillment. Yes, the Bible is reliable even when it discusses future events.
IS THE BIBLE A RELIABLE SOURCE OF
TRUTH, YES
Those are only a few of numerous examples that have led many to consider the Bible to be not just
trustworthy but “just as it truthfully is, as the word of God.”​— 1 Thessalonians 2:13.

Truth is, they know that the Bible says that which is True.

However, with that Truth, comes the raw Fear of God.

And because they are naturally anti-God as the Bible also pointed, therefore, the combination of their fear and anti-Godness makes them deceive themselves.

SanctifiedSista:
Acting by faith...u must build yourself by prayers and attending church ...as I entered into the sanctuary of God, then understood I...so that can help u, also ur personal testimonies.abraham has seen d hand of GOD that's why his faith was alive

And the records show that Abraham Obeyed God therefore God heard Him, as is Written.

God does not hear sinners. John 9:31, Psalm 66:18, Isaiah 59:2.

So even if you pray for 30 years non-stop and you are not compliant with the above Laws, you wasted your time. You did a vain thing.

MrPRevailer:
What are you trying to prove with these?

Everyone sees the atrocities and abominations committed in church and outside church by the very same people who are supposed to be ensamples of righteousness and the embodiment of holiness, as commanded.

But, they are as atheists and all unrighteous people.

Ken4Christ:
When did the rapture take place and who was raptured?

It started after the fulfillment of the prophecy in Joel 2:28. I bet you did not see that either.

paxonel:
when you hear that a Christian is saved, he is saved from what exactly?

Your illustration is physical occurence or what can happen in this life which doesn't necessarily apply in the sprit.

Salvation is spiritual

And everything spiritual alwaysl manifests, physically as it is always said.

Ken4Christ:
Where is Jesus presently?

Apostle Paul said his desire is to depart and be with the Lord - Philippians 1:23.

When the saints die or sleep in the Lord, their spirits go to be with the Lord.

Revelations 21:3 and 22/23

And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and GOD HIMSELF shall be with them, and be their God.

And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.

23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

Ken4Christ:
At rapture, they will return with Christ to put on a glorified body.

The rapture has taken place and it is not a space ship.

I now even see that the Hammurabi is Babylon.

Ur-Nammu & Shulgi: The Sumerian Renaissance

Ur-Nammu wrote down the first codified law system of the land, some three hundred years before Hammurabi of Babylon would write his, and governed his realm in accordance with a patriarchal hierarchy in which he was the father guiding his children to prosperity and continued health"

---------------------------------------------

and Babylon got its own visitation and destruction from God!

Jeremiah 51:56

For the destroyer is coming against her, against Babylon,
And her mighty men will be captured,
Their bows are shattered;
For the Lord is a God of recompense,
He will fully repay.

Jeremiah 51:55
Verse Concepts
For the Lord is going to destroy Babylon,
And He will make her loud noise vanish from her.
And their waves will roar like many waters;
The tumult of their voices sounds forth.

Her destruction is announced in Isaiah 47. In response to her wickedness, arrogance, self-indulgence and brutality towards the people of God the Lord pronounces a message of sudden doom:

But evil shall come upon you, which you will not know how to charm away; disaster shall fall upon you, for which you will not be able to atone; and ruin shall come upon you suddenly, of which you know nothing. (Isaiah 47:11 ESV)

"And so it was.

History tells us that the Babylonian Empire fell very suddenly and very unpleasantly to the Persians under Cyrus The Great in 539 BC. Later when Darius was King the Babylonians revolted unsuccessfully and as a consequence they experienced many of the same brutalities they had previously inflicted upon the Jews. The Babylonians themselves strangled many of their wives and children to keep them from starving to death during the siege or being taken as slaves by the Persians. After the city was defeated Herodotus says that the city gates were pulled down and 3000 of the leading citizens were impaled upon the walls. The once great city – the Queen of the world! – was defeated, devastated and despoiled.

Just like God said."

Especially as Ur, which is mentioned in the Bible is said to be a Sumerian city

"Ur was an important Sumerian city-state in ancient Mesopotamia, located at the site of modern Tell el-Muqayyar in south Iraq's Dhi Qar Governorate. Wikipedia.

Therefore if as is now proven, Sumeria
and by default Ur an all big and small Urs of different names has become extinct, it definitely proves that God wiped them!

And God had Said "He would make their lands desolate" which as is proven today is what will call a desert today which means a very dry and unfruitful and unflourishing place.

desolate
adjective
/ˈdɛs(ə)lət/
1.
(of a place) uninhabited and giving an impression of bleak emptiness

To even remember that when we were children, it used to be known that God indeed, wiped out many civilisations that were evil and wicked as He did to Sodom and Gomorrah and their little remains and ruins is what is called archeological findings.

In proof of the Truth of Bible, it is interesting how Ishmael is still with us but meanwhile Isreal's twin, Esau (Edom) is extinct; wiped out, "lost", as God had Said! Ezekiel 25:12-14.

Come to think of it, in the Bible we see that God Said that He was going to completely wipe out some Nations and peoples who had annoyed Him in full, even to the point that people would not know that they existed?

So isn't it obvious that all those civilisations which atheists love so much eg Sumeria, Hammurabi, Ur-,Nimmon... .what they deceivingly call "lost civilisations" in cover up of The Truth that is God, Who wiped them out and got them "lost" as He Said?

Matrixlord2021:
The scripture has pointed out that Deception would be the last end time game of the devil.
We are also told that if the days are not shortened,the VERY ELECT WOULD BE DECEIVED!!!...!

The Bible did not say "the elect", it said, "flesh"l. The elects are always under God's Protection.

The reason why God shortens it is because of our own cry because we hate to see these evils that people do.

paxonel:
Brainwashed or no brainwashed you are equally a Christian and are equally saved.

For me, going to church is good for one thing, and that is the connection

Don't deceive yourself, when you are saved, it clearly and indisputably shows like the man who was locked up for 20years until he was saved.

Unless and until the police came to save him, he can deceive himself while he was still in the room.

Maynmann:
Only imbeciles talk without thinking.
Listen to your advice hypocrite. I was staying in my place before you quoted me with your jargons.

Repetition is proof you have nothing to say.

Maynmann:
Listen to your advice hypocrite. I was staying in my place before you quoted me with your jargons.

Every normal person knows that "Stay in your place" means "you can now return to your own business as this issue can not reasonably continue."

SeniorMan715:
I too know he's just Contradicting himself

Is that not how Satan does, in sometimes using The Truth to do evil exactly like Satan did to Christ in quoting scriptures twistingly?

MrPRevailer:
It's a command.
Hebrews 10:25 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

It is also Commanded

Psalm 26:4-5
4 I have not sat with vain persons, neither will I go in with dissemblers. 5 I have hated the congregation of evildoers; and will not sit with the wicked.

Psalm 1:1
1 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.

Corinthians 6:14
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

Sunnyshinylight:
Many go to church for classic reasons, others attend because of miracles, or maybe healing and deliverance.

Some other rush in, because they heard the man of God is very powerful, what's your driving force going to church every Sunday......?

A wonderful soul said this and I was really blessed.......

Most go to church so that people would not know that they are devils.

Maynmann:
Did you sin this week?

You can not know, so just stay in your own place.

kpakpandoN:
Many people do not receive from God because they do not have faith...

This is only True by 20%.

People do not receive from God because they are Evil. John 9:31, Psalm 66:18, Isaiah 59:2

SeniorMan715:
Direct this to the person insinuating that Abel wasn't a sinner

He keeps malice with me.

Maynmann:
And people still sin again, ask for forgiveness, sin again, ask for forgiveness. Lol.
You haven’t sin this week?
Do you genuinely repent if you keep sinning?

People do that but do they stop to check whether God has Truly forgiven them?

No!

They, fatally deceive themselves and think that God was joking when He said "go and sin no more"

They do not see that there is no second "go and sin no more" which is what Paul was warning in saying "shall we continue in sin? But because like you, they love to sin, so they deceive themselves and allow people to deceive them even when they can see, if they truly want to see The Truth which is that God has not really forgiven them as proven by their normal miserable lives.

For when God has truly forgiven you, your living changes; goodness and favours and blessings and open doors continuously suddenly falls around you, a phenomen which you never had before.

That is how it works!

SeniorMan715:
Yes everyone is a sinner inherited from Adam, until you obtain repentance, Accept the Truth and live by it your sin will be forgiven

It's the other way round!

We Accept The Truth. (The Law). and know that we are guilty hence werequest for forgiveness as we change our minds that from that day onward we shall abide with The Law.

Then in compliance with The Law we do not do those things that are against The Law (go and sin no more, The Law)

2 Chronicles 7:14
if my people, who are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear

Then, if we continue in that way (for a very long time) you would find that, you are "clean" and that your sins have been forgiven. That is hopefully, God has not yet rejected you (cut you off) as He does to those whom He called but they did not answer. Proverbs 1:24/1 Chronicles 28:9

SeniorMan715:
Jesus was a perfect being he was never a sinner.
All descendants of Adam are sinners.

Tell that devil that, that is why everyone is under Law, except Jesus, The Law Himself.

Abel was born AFTER Adam had obtained the hereditary disease callled sin. Therefore, Adams sperm birthing Abel was already compromised with sin of which eve had already given birth to Cain before Abel was born. So, Abel was already dirty as David rightly observed "in sin was I conceived".

But Jesus was implanted by The Holy, in a female preserved holy and undefiled (virgin), by The Holy.

Therefore, while Christ was Holy and Perfect all the way, Abel was born in sin and conceived in sin.

MyVILLAGEpeople:
You did not answer my question.

No one is going to heaven but to a New heaven and New earth, since this present heaven and earth is corrupted and appointed for destruction.

SeniorMan715:
The Bible says that people receive “the mark of the wild beast” because they follow it “with admiration,” to the point of worshipping it.
( Revelation 13:​3, 4; 16:2)
They do this by giving worshipful honor to their country, its symbols, or its military might.

They already took the mark which is why they love sin and evil.

MyVILLAGEpeople:
What about our forefathers that didn’t get to hear about Jesus before the missionaries came ?

Where will they end up in ?

They had The Law (God's Law called Natural Law. So, same thing.

Righteousness2:
...

We are not going to heaven but to a New heaven and New earth, since this heaven and earth is corrupted and appointed for destruction.

KnownUnknown:
I didn’t even bother to answer the slowpoke. That’s one of the characters around here I have absolutely no regard or respect for. Such an absurd character.

As if we all have not seen that you do not have any reasonable thing to say after I answer you.

LordReed:
It was thought of, told and written by men.

And we know the one that can not come from a man

Okay, you want to be the one who speaks last.

KnownUnknown:
Look at the Jewish priest chanting rubbish in this movie scene that depicts “possession”. Our people would look at this and believe it to be effective and benevolent but a similar scene would be viewed as ineffective or malevolent.
The notion that this culture and their nonsense are special is probably the most absurd idea in the world. I blame the ancient Roman government...

Wow a person who lives under television and movies.

Our people see the real and live and natural and unmovied display of a person possessed by an evil spirit.

LordReed:
