 Christianity Etc › Re: Enter The Kingdom Of God Now! by Kei144(op): 7:20am On Jun 10, 2015 |
Actually, there is biblical explanation for the testimony that I presented in my last post. Ro. 6:3 Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptised into Christ Jesus were baptised into his death? Ro. 6:4 We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. Adam entered into a covenant with Satan, by eating the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil from Satan. We all inherited this covenant, having been born as descendants of Adam. Water baptism is a rite of spiritual exit from Adam's lineage and initiation into the name of Jesus Christ. People who had some experience in mysticism will be able to tell you the importance of initiation ceremonies. Through water baptism, a person takes upon her/him by faith the death that Jesus died on the cross. This death by faith disconnects a person from Adam's and all ancestral covenants. Rising from the baptismal water is initiation or resurrection into Jesus Christ. 1Pe. 3:21 and this water symbolises baptism that now saves you also — not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge [Or response] of a good conscience towards God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Ac. 8:15 When they arrived, they prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit, Ac. 8:16 because the Holy Spirit had not yet come upon any of them; they had simply been baptised into the name of the Lord Jesus. 1Co. 1:13 Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptised into [Or in; also in verse 15] the name of Paul? 1Co. 1:14 I am thankful that I did not baptise any of you except Crispus and Gaius, 1Co. 1:15 so no-one can say that you were baptised into my name. What about those who receive the Holy Spirit without water baptism? He. 6:1 Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God, He. 6:2 instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. The first century Church clearly understood the particular roles of both water and Holy Spirit baptisms. Unfortunately, the knowledge of the roles of these baptisms were lost in the Roman Catholic Church, which took over from the early disciples of Christ. The popular belief in most new churches today is that only Holy Spirit baptism is necessary. My thinking is that once you decide to become born again, it is good to receive both baptisms. Each one plays an important role. |
| Crime › Woman Arrested On Suspicion Of Stripping On Malaysia Quake Mountain by Kei144(op): 6:41am On Jun 10, 2015 |
Police in Malaysia arrested a foreign woman Tuesday who is believed to have been part of a group of tourists who stripped naked at the summit of Mount Kinabalu, according to Bernama, Malaysia's official news agency. The mountain was shaken by an earthquake Friday in which 16 people were killed. The indigenous people of Sabah believe the tourists' behavior on May 30, deemed disrespectful of local culture, angered the spirit of the mountain and was the reason for the earthquake, Bernama reported. The woman's name and nationality have not been released. She was arrested by police at Tawau Airport, in the eastern Malaysian state of Sabah, where she was about to leave for Kuala Lumpur, Bernama reported. Police have not said exactly why the woman was detained. http://edition.cnn.com/2015/06/09/asia/malaysia-kinabalu-quake-arrest/index.html

MuttleyLaff:1Pe. 3:18 For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit, 1Pe. 3:19 through whom also he went and preached to the spirits in prison 1Pe. 3:20 who disobeyed long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. In it only a few people, eight in all, were saved through water, 1Pe. 3:21 and this water symbolises baptism that now saves you also — not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a good conscience towards God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ, 1Pe. 3:22 who has gone into heaven and is at God’s right hand — with angels, authorities and powers in submission to him. I always go by the words of the Bible. I don't believe in any doctrine other than what can clearly be seen in the Bible. The above passage says that water baptism is important in the salvation process, which is the process of entering the kingdom of heaven. Even in Acts 10:45-48 that you quoted previously, where gentiles received the Holy Spirit prior to water baptism, water baptism was still administered to them. Water baptism may not have any wonderful spiritual impact on a person, but it does include a person into the name of Jesus Christ. Incidentally, I have a particular testimony concerning water baptism. However, my experience can be regarded as a particular experience; it may not imply a general truth. In my second year in the university, I visited the Christian Union Fellowship (NIFES) of my university, following the advice of a friend who became born again. I had a wonderful encounter with God. For six weeks, I was moved by the Holy Spirit. Then my mother warned me against joining SU people; after the warning, I began to experience health and psychological crisis that eventually threw me out of fellowship with God's people. One month to my graduation, I followed another friend to Deeper Life Church; God once again manifested Himself to me in a great way and I decided within me that I will hold on to Jesus for life. Before long, my worldly friends pulled me back to their side. Then, two weeks to my degree exam, I began to have migraine headache that prevented me from reading. When one born again boy in my class got to know about my predicament, and my experience in Deeper Life, he prayed for me and I was healed that day. He sent his Deeper Life room mate to come and talk to me. I attended Deeper Life all through my degree exams and I was always filled with great joy and peace. The next month, I went for NYSC and I was such a wonderful Deeper Life Christian in camp. I was then posted to teach in a school. In my first month there, I was so much in the Spirit. Then I met a business man from my place and I began to enjoy riding with him in his car and he took me to all sorts of places. Before long, I fell out of Deeper Life and out of being born again. One month to the end of my NYSC, I learned that Christian corpers fellowship was going to hold at the residence of one female Yoruba corper (medical doctor) that was friendly with me, so I decided to attend. In that fellowship, God embraced me again and I was so full of remorse for my prodigality. There was this thought in me that I would soon move into the wider world and that if I backslid again, it may be difficult to recover me. I became worried bout my inability to remain in Christ continuously and feared that I might not make it to heaven. The next year, after my NYSC, I was baptized in the Deeper Life Bible Church. About one year after that, I was living in Lagos and I found myself in a situation where I did not attend any church service or Christian fellowship for up to six weeks, yet I knew in my heart that I solidly belonged to Jesus. Some years later, I wondered how I overcame the initial instability in my relationship with God and I traced it to my baptism in water. Apparently, there were some ancestral spirits that refused to allow me to be a born again. Water baptism separated me from those spirits; they no longer had power over my spiritual life, but they sorely troubled my worldly pursuits. |

MuttleyLaff:Ro. 1:3 regarding his Son, who as to his human nature was a descendant of David, Ro. 1:4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God, by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord. He. 1:3 The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. He. 1:4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs. He. 1:5 For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my Son; today I have become your Father”? [Or have begotten you] [Psalm 2:7] Or again, “I will be his Father, and he will be my Son”? [2 Samuel 7:14; 1 Chron. 17:13] He. 1:6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says, “Let all God’s angels worship him.” [Deut. 32:43 He. 1:7 In speaking of the angels he says, “He makes his angels winds, his servants flames of fire.” [Psalm 104:4] He. 1:8 But about the Son he says, “Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever, and righteousness will be the sceptre of your kingdom. He. 1:9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy.” [Psalm 45:6,7] He. 5:11 We have much to say about this, but it is hard to explain because you are slow to learn. He. 5:12 In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God’s word all over again. You need milk, not solid food! He. 5:13 Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. He. 5:14 But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil. The divinity that Jesus Christ possesses today, he inherited when God adopted him as his firstborn Son. The adoption took place after Jesus' death on the cross. so what EXACTLY are your justification(s) for water baptism in this dispensation? My justification for water baptism is that Jesus Christ, who is my model, went through it. Even though John the baptist tried to prevent Jesus from going through water baptism, Jesus insisted that he must fulfill all righteousness (Mt. 3:14-15). Jesus is my reference, not any pastor, neither any doctrine. I don't believe that there has been any new dispensation since the earthly ministry of Jesus. New dispensation will commence when Jesus comes for his own. |

MuttleyLaff:1Pe. 2:21 To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps. A person could enter the kingdom of God and crash out later. A person's membership of the kingdom of God becomes permanent when God adopts her/him as His son. Only one person has been adopted by God as His son; Jesus Christ! He is an example to us. He began His life in the kingdom when he was baptized by John the Baptist. Baptism of the Holy Spirit and anointing with power followed after. Don't be deceived by doctrines crafted by human beings. Look unto Jesus and you will never make mistake. Some, without the receiving the Holy Spirit are already in the Kingdom of GodI am surprised that you believe that there are people who never received the Holy Spirit that are already in the kingdom of God. May be your idea of receiving the Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues. Ro. 8:9 You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. |

[size=14pt]The power of the kingdom of God[/size] 1Co. 4:20 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power. 1Co. 2:4 My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, 1Co. 2:5 so that your faith might not rest on men’s wisdom, but on God’s power. The Christianity religion is so full of talking and talking, but the kingdom of God is known by power. When a senior member of the Christianity religion comes to a place, s/he talks and talks; but when a senior member of the kingdom of God comes to a place, s/he demonstrates the power of God. The reason why the senior member of the kingdom of God is able to demonstrate divine power is because the holy spirit in her/him has acquired significant power from the Holy Spirit of God. A person with developed holy spirit within can destroy and overthrow the unholy spirit within her/him, and thereby live a holy life. S/he can do all manners of miracles. |

[size=14pt]Growing in the Spirit[/size] You enter the kingdom of God by being born into it. The Holy Spirit of God gives birth to a holy spirit in you. This holy spirit in you is just a spiritual baby. And there is also inside you an unholy spirit that was birthed by Satan, which we inherited from Adam. The unholy spirit is full grown and has been in control of our lives since we were born. So, even though you now have a holy spirit in you, the unholy spirit still dominates. In order for one to experience the power of the kingdom of God, the holy spirit within must be made to grow in stature and in power. Only the Holy Spirit of God can feed the holy spirit within. 1Co. 10:2 They were all baptised into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. 1Co. 10:3 They all ate the same spiritual food 1Co. 10:4 and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ. Jn. 6:54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. Jn. 6:55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. Jn. 6:56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. I personally nourish the holy spirit in me, when I pray, by asking God to feed my spirit with His flesh and to give my spirit His blood to drink. I also pray that God strengthens me with power in my inner being through His Holy Spirit (Eph. 3:17). As the holy spirit within grows due to continual divine nourishment, it increases in stature and in divine power. |

[size=14pt]How to enter[/size] Ac. 2:37 When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Ac. 2:38 Peter replied, “Repent and be baptised, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Col. 3:2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. The first thing a person that wants to enter the kingdom of God must do is to repent. Repentance means to no longer set your mind on earthly things, but on the kingdom of God. The result of this paradigm shift is that you will begin to lose out in the things of the world and begin to grow in the spiritual life of God. You now submit yourself to a minister of the gospel who will baptize you in water into the Lord Jesus Christ, so that Jesus Christ becomes your Lord. You commonly hear preachers say that people should receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and saviour; the proper way to do it is by baptism in water. Jn. 3:5 Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, no-one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Jn. 3:6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit [Or but spirit] gives birth to spirit. When you have been baptized in water, you have been born of water; it remains to be born of the Spirit. In order to receive the Holy Spirit, all it takes is to pray to God to give you the Holy Spirit (Lk. 11:13) and believe that you have received. The minister that carried out the baptism in water can also pray for the person baptized to receive the Holy Spirit, immediately after the water baptism (Acts 19:6). Speaking in tongues is not a necessary indication that you have received the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is a spirit and the mouth that speaks in tongues is just flesh. Flesh and spirit do not often go together. A person who receives the Holy Spirit has been born into the kingdom of God. |

Mk. 1:15 “The time has come,” he said. “The kingdom of God is near. Repent and believe the good news!” God threw open His kingdom to mankind during the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, up till this day, mankind has not understood what the kingdom of God is really all about. All that mankind has been able to do is to form a religion that is about Jesus Christ. Today, more than two billion people belong to the Christianity religion; but very few of these belong to the kingdom of God. What is the problem? The problem is lack of understanding. Everybody talks about the good news or gospel, but very few understand that the good news is simply that God has thrown His kingdom open to mankind. Any person who understands and believes the good news should ask, how do I get in? 1 Like |

Two simple things the OP could do when he senses that he is about to ejaculate, in order to prevent early ejaculation, are: Think about something else: something distracting, boring or annoying Take a deep breath before ejaculation: this can delay orgasm by slowing ejaculation and stimulation |

Ge. 2:8 Now the LORD God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. Ge. 2:9 And the LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground — trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Just after God created mankind, He put mankind in the Garden of Eden. At the centre of the garden were two spiritual trees: the tree of life (the Holy Spirit of God) and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Lucifer—Ez. 28:13). God warned Adam to never eat the fruit that Satan gives, otherwise he would die. The fall of man occurred because mankind received the fruit of Satan. Once that happened, mankind acquired the nature of sin and thereby became separated from God. It became impossible for mankind to feed on the fruit of God (the fruit of the tree of life). He. 10:5 Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: “Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me; He. 10:6 with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased. He. 10:7 Then I said, `Here I am — it is written about me in the scroll — I have come to do your will, O God.’“ All the sin offerings of the Old Testament could not make a human being good enough to feed on the fruit of God. When God’s appointed time for mankind to have the opportunity again to eat His fruit came, God prepared a new human being (an Adam). In order for mankind to have the opportunity to eat the fruit of God, this new Adam must perfectly do the will of God and thereby nullify the disobedience of the first Adam. The new Adam is Jesus. By the time he was around thirty years old, the Holy Spirit (the tree of life) came upon Him and birthed in him a holy spirit, during his baptism in water that was administered by John the Baptist. Shortly after the baptism, Satan (the tree of the knowledge of good and evil) appeared to him and tempted him like he did the first Adam, but Jesus Christ never yielded to the temptation. Consequently, God anointed him with great power and he began his earthly ministry. All through the period of the earthly ministry, the temptation to follow the way of Satan was always there, but Jesus never yielded to the temptation. The final test for Jesus was to fulfill God’s real purpose in bringing him into the world, which was to die for the sins of mankind. Jesus chose to do the will of God and died as a sacrifice of atonement for the sins of mankind. God resurrected him and adopted him as His eternal first born Son (Ro. 1:4). Jn. 1:9 The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world. Jn. 1:12 Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. Jesus Christ has opened the way for mankind to receive the Holy Spirit of God. Any person who receives the Holy Spirit has the right to become a son of God.

The Luo tribe was part of those Cushite people. But the Luos are not Jews, since they did not have circumcision in their culture.

Why is it that a lot of things you hear in the churches do not agree with the Bible? I have always heard that Jesus ministered on earth for 3½ years. This morning I decided to see if I could see in the Bible the time of the year Jesus began his ministry. And I saw in the gospel according to John not only the time when Jesus began the ministry, but also all the time that the ministry covered. So, popular church leaders of the past just came up with their own ideas and the church people accepted these ideas as God's ideas, because the popular leaders were called men of God. Ideas like trinity and assumption of Mary are nowhere in the Bible. Modern Christians still hold to these ideas and accuse any person refuting them of blasphemy. Jesus began his ministry in the month of Abib (Nissan). He was crucified just before Passover of the third year. The ministry lasted two years and two weeks, by Jewish calendar; roughly two years of the Gregorian calendar. In order to get the timing in the gospel of John, begin at Jn. 1:32. Jn. 2:1 On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, Jn. 2:2 and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. This was third day of Jesus' ministry. Jn. 2:13 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Jn. 2:23 Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many people saw the miraculous signs he was doing and believed in his name. [Or and believed in him] Jn. 4:45 When he arrived in Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him. They had seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, for they also had been there. Jn. 6:4 The Jewish Passover Feast was near. This was the beginning of the second year; in the month of Abib (Nissan). Jn. 7:2 But when the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near, Jn. 7:3 Jesus’ brothers said to him, “You ought to leave here and go to Judea, so that your disciples may see the miracles you do. Jn. 10:22 Then came the Feast of Dedication [That is, Hanukkah] at Jerusalem. It was winter, Jn. 10:23 and Jesus was in the temple area walking in Solomon’s Colonnade. Jn. 11:55 When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, many went up from the country to Jerusalem for their ceremonial cleansing before the Passover. This is the month of Abib (Nisan) of the third year. Jn. 12:1 Six days before the Passover, Jesus arrived at Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. Jn. 13:1 It was just before the Passover Feast. Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he now showed them the full extent of his love. [Or he loved them to the last] |

Now let us take a three-day journey into the desert to offer sacrifices to the LORD our God, or he may strike us with plagues or with the sword.” The Israelites were originally meant to enter the Promised Land in the third year of their journey from Egypt to the Promised Land, but when their faith in God was tried, they failed, thereby extending the period of the journey to 40 years. 1Co. 10:11 These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfilment of the ages has come. The movement of Israelites from Egypt to the Promised Land is a type of the transition of God’s people from mortal to immortality, during the end time. The transition will be a three-year process. November 2017 is in the third year (using Jewish calendar). This means that we are currently in the first year; the first year began on 20 March, 2015 (the month of Passover). 1Co. 10:1 For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers, that our forefathers were all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea. 1Co. 10:2 They were all baptised into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. 1Co. 10:3 They all ate the same spiritual food 1Co. 10:4 and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ. If you are aspiring to be one of those that will be adopted as sons of God, you must be baptized into Jesus Christ in water and in the Holy Spirit (Jn. 3:5). You must daily eat spiritual food and drink spiritual drink. Spiritual food has to do with gaining spiritual knowledge and spiritual drink is about continuing to grow in the measure of the Holy Spirit (living water). God has raised up end-time deliverers (Moses), who will lead His people into becoming mature sons. These end- time deliverers will become prominent as from Pentecost (24-5-2015). 1Pe. 4:7 The end of all things is near. Therefore be clear-minded and self-controlled so that you can pray. 1Pe. 4:8 Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Prayer is the key. In order to be able to pray effectively, you must tell yourself the truth that nothing of this world that you have now or will acquire tomorrow matters, because this world has no future. If there are only 30 months to rapture, what again are you pursuing in this world? Focus your attention on spiritual matters! You must relate with people on the basis of love. Our society is known for people cheating, robbing, swindling and extorting from, others, for selfish gains; your life must instead be characterized by goodness towards people. Col. 3:14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Col. 3:15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Col. 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. Col. 3:17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. |

[size=14pt]Strive to Enter[/size] Lk. 13:23 Someone asked him, “Lord, are only a few people going to be saved?” He said to them, Lk. 13:24 “Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to. Lk. 13:25 Once the owner of the house gets up and closes the door, you will stand outside knocking and pleading, `Sir, open the door for us.’ “But he will answer, `I don’t know you or where you come from.’ There are 30 months from the time when this tract is written to November 2017. In those 30 months, those who are wise will do everything to qualify to be one of those that will be adopted by God as His sons. Only a few people will make it. |

[size=14pt]No One Knows the Time[/size] Mt. 24:36 “No-one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. It is usual for people to say that even Jesus Christ does not know the time when the world will end. That shows how little people know about Jesus Christ. During his ministry on earth, Jesus was basically a man. He was limited in knowledge. That is why when the rich young ruler called him “good teacher” (Lk. 18:18), he rejected such honour. But after his resurrection, God glorified him and made him an exact image of Himself, so that there is nothing that God knows that Jesus doesn’t know. In fact, Jesus revealed the timing of the end of this world to Apostle John. Re. 12:1 A great and wondrous sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. Re. 12:2 She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth. Here we see a very important astronomical sign that points at a very important end-time event. Free-download astronomical software, Stellarium, has enabled us to know the timing of the sign of Rev. 12:1-2. The sign of Rev. 12:1-2 will be in the sky on 23rd September, 2017. Re. 12:5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who will rule all the nations with an iron sceptre. And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne. Rev. 12:5 describes the adoption of the sons of God just prior to the rapture. In the astronomical sign, star constellation Virgo is the woman and planet Jupiter (the king planet) is the child in Virgo. The child is born at the instance when Jupiter exits the constellation boundary of Virgo; Stellarium shows that this takes place on 13th November, 2017. One other interesting occurrence that same day is that Venus is in conjunction with Jupiter; this same occurrence formed the super-bright star that Magi from the east saw on the day Jesus was born (Mt 2:1). Going by Rev. 12:5, the rapture will take place in November, 2017. |

Seven years from now, less than 5% of the people alive in the world will be alive. This world is quickly coming to an end. Only very few people in the world today will make it into the new world that will soon emerge. This means that nearly 7 billion human beings will die within the next seven years. It means that there is practically no future, until the new world begins. Nothing you have now actually matters and nothing you will get tomorrow will matter; because there is no future for anything that you have or will get. |

[size=14pt]About to begin![/size] I am raising up Deliverers like Moses that will lead many out of the darkness if they will listen to them. It is never my desire to destroy. It is men who have destroyed the earth, and destroyed nature, and people. And there are those who test me by not listening for My instructions that would keep them from harm. I WILL ARISE WITH HEALING IN MY WINGS, and you WILL grow fat as stall fed calves! I will pour out My anointing that breaks the yoke of bondage over people’s lives. LISTEN to Me in the quietness. Wait on Me that you may receive all you need for this hour at hand. You need wisdom from ABOVE, not earthly wisdom! http://ft111.com/priscilla.htm Ac. 1:4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. Ac. 1:5 For John baptised with [Or in] water, but in a few days you will be baptised with the Holy Spirit.” Ten days to Pentecost. Ten days to the latter rain. Wait and pray for living water to flow over your soul. |
| Politics › Vatican To Recognize Palestinian State In New Treaty by Kei144(op): 5:16pm On May 13, 2015 |
The Vatican said Wednesday that it had concluded a treaty to recognize Palestinian statehood, a symbolic but significant step welcomed by Palestinians but upsetting to the Israeli government. Formal recognition of a Palestinian state by the Vatican, which has deep religious interests in the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories that include Christian holy sites, lends a powerful signal of legitimacy to the efforts by the Palestinian Authority’s president, Mahmoud Abbas, to achieve statehood despite the long paralyzed Israeli-Palestinian peace process. Israel has grown increasingly alarmed about the increased international acceptance of Palestine as a state since the United Nations upgraded the Palestinian delegation’s status in 2012 to that of a nonmember observer state. A number of European countries have also signaled their acceptance of Palestinian statehood. A statement from a joint commission of Vatican and Palestinian diplomatic officials, posted on the Vatican news website, said “the work of the commission on the text of the agreement has been concluded,” and that it would be submitted for formal approval and for signing “in the near future.” Hanna Amireh, head of a Palestinian committee on church affairs, said the treaty was a broad one regarding the Vatican’s interests in the West Bank, East Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip, including the standing of churches and church courts and taxes on church charities, institutions and lands, as well as other cultural and diplomatic matters. He said it had been under negotiation for about a year. “The Vatican is the spiritual capital of the Catholics, and they are recognizing Palestine, that’s the chief importance,” said Mr. Amireh, who is also a member of the Palestine Liberation Organization’s executive committee. The move counters an image of Palestinians as militants or terrorists, he added, as a “recognition of the Palestinian character that has a clear message for coexistence and peace.” http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/14/world/middleeast/vatican-to-recognize-palestinian-state-in-new-treaty.html?emc=edit_na_20150513&nlid=54795170&_r=0 |
