Carmel……..Jesse was the,  “SEED” that came first, then comes the roots,  and from the roots, spring forth another branch from that same tree and it produced “offsprings” or seeds all from the one and same tree,  and in the case of Jesus and king David that root stock was Jesse.  Just as scripture shows us all, who have the ability to underst…[Read more]

Jodi…….Another excellent post on, Jesus being “the root and offspring of David” , Hope everyone reads it and thinks about, what you have written.

peace and love to you and yours Jodi………gene

Hi Jodi,

Revelation 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches.
I am the root and the offspring of David,
and the bright and morning star.
You: Rhizaroot– a root
that which like a root springs FROM A ROOT, a sprout, shoot

The above Jodi is YOUR CONFUSION!

PRODUCE THE MEANING OF THE ABOVE WITHIN A DI…[Read more]

@Danny,

I said “worship” not “honor”; these are two distinct words, one show reverent devotion and the other is high respect. This verse you quote is a little troubling for me since is says to merely “honor” God; no, what God deserves is our complete devotion

In Matt 4:10 and Luke 4:8 Jesus says, “You shall worship the Lord your God, and him o…[Read more]

@desiretruth

Hi desiretruth,

You: Is your worship about Jesus, God, or the belief in christianity? There can only be one…

Me: I worship both God and His Son Jesus Christ.

John 5:23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.

Amen and Amen.

Hi to all

Here is one subject to Devotional

Our Greatest Need: To Grow Up and Become Like Jesus

In His last prayer for His disciples Jesus uttered these words, “That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me..and the glory which thou ga…[Read more]

Hi Carmel and All,

Trees have roots as in plural.

Isaiah 11:1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots.

Revelation 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning…[Read more]

Danny…….Desire Truth is right on his last post to you brother,  who is your “first love” ,  Remember what Jesus told the church at Ephesus, in revelations. They lost their “first love” for God the Father, and unless they repented, they would lose their standing.

peace and love to you and yours…….gene

DesireTruth……..Are  we in agreement, on this, By the “works”  of law, (the way law works)   no flesh can be MADE RIGHT IN THEIR HEART?   Do we at least agree on that?

peace and love to you and yours……..gene

@Danny,

Is your worship about Jesus, God, or the belief in christianity? There can only be one…

@desiretruth

Hi desiretruth,

If you don’t want to accept God’s Son, Jesus Christ, then why are you here? This is a Christian forum.

Nobody needs your disbelief.

Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 2:38

To all…….What Jodi is posting here is exactly right, please read her posts very carefully and think about what she is saying.

peace and love to you all and yours………gene

Desire Truth……you ask , “please explain the difference between a commandment and a Law.  I tried to Show you what a law was , It is a “enforced ” commandment.  While a commandment by it self is simple a word, that is not being enforced on a person. God commanded the people of Israel a lot of times and they did not obey him ,  that is why he turns…[Read more]

@Gene,

We seem to be going in a circle and as I have said in the past, I hate merry-go-rounds. Please explain the difference between a “commandment” and a “law” AND give an example of each from scripture.

I’ll get to your Ex 20:20 in the christian bible; Ex 20:17 in the Hebrew bible…fascinating stuff.

18 And all the people were seeing the thunder and the lightning and the sound of the ram’s horn and the mountain smoking, and the people saw, and they trembled, and they stood at a distance. 19 And they said to Moses, “You speak with us, and we will listen, but let not God speak with us, lest we die.” 20 And Moses said to the people, “Do not be…[Read more]

Hi Desiretruth???

You: @Carmel,
You are one of those people
who believes they are the most intelligent person in the room

ME: IT IS YOUR TASK TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IS THE TRUTH, DO YOU KNOW HOW?

I TELL YOU:

BY SIMPLY IGNORING ALL YOUR BLAH, BLAH, AND BLAH, AND HUMBLY PRODUCE THE SCRIPTURE THAT IN YOUR LEVEL…[Read more]

@Carmel,

You are one of those people who believes they are the most intelligent person in the room and then they open their mouth, in this case begin writing, only to prove they are the biggest fool in the room.

You made the wild claim they were THREE “immaculate conceptions”, conceptions done without the combination of sperm and egg, and I am…[Read more]
