2 Peter 2:1, 3 (NIV):
1*But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you.*
3*In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up.*
2 Timothy 4:1-4 (NIV):
1*In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge:*
2*Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.
3*For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.*
4*They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.*

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only son, that who so ever will believe on him, shall not perish but have everlasting life.
The Lord showed me something just now about this verse.
God is Love, Amore in Spanish,
we don't have to work for it. That's how much he loves us. Just as in the Garden at the beginning, called the Garden of Eden;
the curse showed up only after they were disobedient. Now God*blesses*us again, that we are given the Honor, and the*Privilege*not to have to work, or try to earn our salvation, or eternal life. We don't earn our salvation, no matter how much you work in the church, or do other things, you don't need to do anything, but but accept him, as savior. A Rich Father,*doesn't*make his kids work, for anything, some do, but not this one, called our God. Yahweh. HOw good is this.. it is really good.*

Hebrews 10:35
{{ Don't lose your fearless*confidence*in God, walking in faith, and not by natural sight.}}
What is distracting some of us. Going to church is not a problem with me, it is thinking that is the only time to be spiritually fed, and the bible is full of good words for us. Just like them*Israelites*going through the desert from*Egypt*being set free by*Pharaoh, king of*Egypt, they were told only take enough food for that day, that was called Manna it rained from the skys, cool, right, lol, and it was like bread, or some kind of bird, some people tried to hide it for tomorrow, and in the morning it turned into worms. Lesson, trust Yahweh, God, if he said so, do so, but can we live on something one day a week, it's like hiding it, and expecting it to be there, for*strength*the next day. WE are to get fresh manna, or fresh spiritual food, everyday, you don't know what you might be missing if you don't partake of the word yourself. The bible is full of good words, for us. NOt worms. Yay.

* I like to use the Living Bible it kind of is talking like you don't need to try to read between the lines stuff. so yeah, I'm not a KJV all the time, although I like some of it, but it is very difficult to understand, and I read that the Living Bible, or the New Living Bible was the closest to the original bible. Sounds good to me.
Sounds good to me.

** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * **{1 Peter 3:7}
*Husbands give HONOR unto the women, unto your wife, as the weaker vessel.*
This subject could be controversial in ways.
Some say women are equal, some say, emotionally were stronger, some say, there body builders, and stronger.
What I believe is being said, is to give honor unto the weaker vessel, as my interpretation is physically.
PHysically, there are many challenges, for women, as to men.
NOt to mention personal things, men don't get, but also were not to lift heavy objects as this could cause, miscarriages, or even before. My mom had 5 children, and started carrying heavy things around by the time she got into her 70's her uterus was dropping.
WEaker, I would say, my mind is not on working, but on family, if *all these news stories of women breaking down, trying to keep a home, family, and work, end up doing what they do, because of stress, it is a big*factor*on the women's emotions, to try to handle all this. I believe God created us totally different, not only physically, but emotionally, and hormonally, and, our*psychological*makeup is different.
The story men venus and women mars, something like that, they've proven the mind is differently created.
Why am I saying this, is this.
Men, unmarried, and married, are starting to role model after a leader. They talk cheap about women, like there not to be loved, as Jesus said, to love your wife, as he loved the church, I believe homosexuality is feeling very comfortable in the church, as to love/support a man more than your wife, or family. This is not from the Lord.
It says Give Honor unto her. Those who are not married, should look into the word, and listen to the HOly Spirit inside of us, who is the light, that shines in the dark places.
What then is church, if other religions are told they could beat their*wife's, or treat them as nothing, then what is happening in the churches, bad mouthing, and neglect is no different, it is not love, some religions accept hurt your wife, beat her, neglect her, *don't buy her anything, treat her like your in a different sect of a cult.
Why are divorces on the rise in "so called churches" even though CAtholic don't accept divorce, but some leaders, have been married more than 2, or 3 times.
Because it's not about money.
Jesus is love.
When love comes into action, it is not just a piece of paper, and then neglect your family, wife, dog, and cat, and just don't live anymore, following a religious cult. So many do this, the pastor who said, if you eat grass you'll be prosperous of something, the one who gave poison cool aide to drink and they all died, what's the difference, if you*separate*yourself listening to somebody, and not listening to the teachings of the gospel, you end up spiritually*
dead. It's an invader, a third person, who's comes in and tries to destroy your life, your marriage, your family, home, and future.
The intruder, the peeping tom, who gets into your business matters, socially, financially, and spiritually, telling you your not any good, neither is your wife, and family. There are people like this, and they will be brought down, and*
Jesus will be lifted up.*
REad the word, single men, looking to get married.
A wife, want's to be loved, and treated as Jesus said to do.
HOnor her, love her as Jesus did, and loved.*
That is a lot of love.
{A wife is a gift from God. bible verse.}
I know there are men who could truly love like Jesus said to, but there are those who are learning disrespect, and dishonor, and it''s not coming from knowing Jesus, maybe knowing about him, and doing your own thing.

Matthew 25:33
And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. 34Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; 36I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’37“Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? 38When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? 39Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’41“Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: 42for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; 43I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’44“Then they also will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’ 45Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’ 46And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.

Matthew 25:33
And he shall set the sheep on his right hand That is, the elect of God, and true believers, such as have the grace of God truly implanted in them; the sheep the Father gave unto Christ, and made his care and charge, whom he, as the good shepherd, laid down his life for; and who know his voice in effectual calling, and follow him in the way of his ordinances and appointments; and are comparable to sheep for their meekness and innocence, their simplicity and usefulness, and their harmless and inoffensive lives, and conversations: these Christ will set on his right hand, as a token of his affection for them, and a mark of respect and honour shown them, and as a pledge of that exaltation and glory he will be about to raise them to.
But the goats on the left; that is, the foolish virgins, wicked, and slothful servants, graceless professors, who, because of the impurity of their hearts, the filthiness of their lives, and their offensiveness to Christ, are compared to goats: these he will place at his left hand, in token of his disaffection for them, as a brand of disgrace upon them, and as an intimation of that dishonour, and miserable condition they will quickly be in. These different situations plainly pre-signify how things will go with each, that one will be acquitted, and made happy, the other will be condemned, and become miserable.
Agreeable to which the Jews say F3, that there is a right hand and a left hand with the Lord: they that are on the right hand, are such as have done well, and are (twkzl) , "for absolution"; and they that are on the left hand are criminals, and are (hbwxl) , "for condemnation". Some think the allusion is to the two Scribes in the sanhedrim, who stood before the judges, one on the right hand, and the other on the left, and wrote the sentences; the one of those that were acquitted, and the other of those that were condemned F4.

*This is beautiful. I'll always remember those days, when I decided to take time away from work, and spend it raising my daughter. Those memories are something no one is able to take away, it is worth a zillion dollars, I wouldn't exchange having a dollar for *a cookie, instead of a billion. It is the time and love together, maybe it's just me, but then it's just me, how I am. Thank you for the verse, I was wondering where it went.

Going back on Track with Isaiah 8
8:12
Don't panic because of Syria, and Israel.
13;
Don't fear anything except the Lord who is your safety.
16:
Write down all these things, and entrust them to some Godly man, to hand down to future generations.
19:
So *why are you trying to find out the future from*witches*and mediums? Don't*listen*to them, Can he living find out the futue from the dead. Why not ask your God.
The witches, have no light or truth in them.
The Lord detests them, and abhors them.
16:
**There's a lot of action going on. A visit to Isaiah, telling him to write in CApital letter's that he*will*have a son, and his name.*
Wars with Syria, and Israel, and Judah, refused the message from Isaiah that a*redeemer*will be born
*A lot of*fighting's, *to destroy the past, and fighting to make a future, from the things that were prophesied.
A book that that isn't a sit back and enjoy, it is like a battle field of wars
physical wars, and spiritual wars, of witches and the wicked, are there*
to try to show themselves as powerful, but it says, in this chapter, that they will be destroyed.
It is*prophesied*that the anti Christ will come our of Syria. It directly says this.
It says, he will be extremely proud, and a very hard evil rebellious man.
In the book of Revelation the last book in the bible, it says, some believers will have their head cut off, if they don't change to their faith.
This mainly talks about after the*rapture*of believers.
This is happening today.
This is happening to those who do not want to deny their faith.
But it says, it will get worse.
"evil men, shall wax, worse, and worse."
It is just the beginning, it says, that Elijah and Moses, will come back to earth, and be killed by them, somewhere in the middle East, because both of these men were taken alive, and it says, "there is a time for every man to die once."
God keeps his word.
So he will send Elijah and Moses back, and they will be killed, and die, but they will be raised up again.*
I don't know why we were given such a book, with all wisdom, all knowledge, stuff the scientists are just finding out, and things were there from the very beginning, but it was*prophesied*that a virgin will*conceive, and his name will be called Emmanuel, "savior" and it did happen,
the rest of it will too.
Syria is on the upmost uprise of evil,
you could see the darkest, deepest evil of hatred on their face's, being unremorseful, relentless, and *without any mercy or compassion.

2 *Corinthians*11:13
Even as Eve was beguiled in her mind, be not corrupted from the simplicity of
Christ.
I watched that *movie again I posted in the good nite thread.
Based on a true story, Freedom can't be contained.
Many lived the simple life. There was a movie by Paris Hilton,*daughter
of the Hilton Hotel's," called the simple life.
They wanted to do ordinary things, to get their hands dirty, and feel life in their fingers, and hands, hearts, and lives.
Adam n Eve seemed to have that*simple*life.
There was no need for all the things today that says we need all this, and more.
Those who lived in Tee pees, worshiped the Great Spirit which is God, and said they didn't have churches, or organizations, but prayed *daily, in groups.
That is a simple life.
This scripture says just that, Just as Eve was,*deceived*into thinking there needs to be*something*more.

"And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind. And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also? Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth."

*Heya beloved of the Lord. Just want to say some thing about this verse. If you ever wanted to look into the eyes of Jesus, these are the glasses to look through, to see exactly who Jesus is. Any wonder Jesus said, if you don't become as little children, in no wise will you enter into the kingdom of God. A little child*doesn't*see faults in people, they don't know what sin is, even though they will need to be taught right from wrong, they are to pure to be finding fault in others, and having too much fun being free being alive, and loving life, trusting parents. Love*doesn't*come with darkness, it is not 2 sides of it, like night and day, it says, God is love, and he never changes, neither does he slumber. Looking at the world and people, through this scripture you will look at it through Jesus's eyes. People judged him yet he never judged any one.
NOt even the women caught in adultery, he said to her accusers, who here is without sin throw the rock at her. It is the eyes of the vulture when you try to find sin in others, a vulture eats the dead carcasses of animals. Sin is spiritual death.
To do this, the light of the Lord is not lit, as the person only becomes a judge, and fault finder, and there is no love in it, no light, for Christ said, I am the light of the world. This is who Jesus is. His eyes are that of a creator that loves his creations. He cried and said, oh*Jerusalem*I would take you under my wing, as a mother hen,, but you refused me. This is real freedom, to see people as Jesus does, let it speak to you, the HOly Spirit, my words can't explain it further. That those who see, wouldn't see sin, for it causes judgement and pride, and those who don't see the truth, would see. "Love covereth a multitude of sins." This is the bible verse, a multitude is a lot.

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that who so ever believeth on him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

God didn't judge anyone. It says he loved the world. He wraps his arms around us, and said, I love you, it's up to us, to choose. Chose this day who you will serve. bible verse.*

[SUP]8[/SUP]*Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
[SUP]9[/SUP]*But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all*men, as theirs also was.
[SUP]10[/SUP]*But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
[SUP]11[/SUP]*Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of*them*all the Lord delivered me.
[SUP]12[/SUP]*Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
[SUP]13[/SUP]*But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
[SUP]14[/SUP]*But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned*them;
[SUP]15[/SUP]*And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
[SUP]16[/SUP]*All scripture*is*given by inspiration of God, and*is*profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
[SUP]17[/SUP]*That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

*The scripture I wanted from this chapter was, All of us who live Godly lives, will suffer persecution. But this is really very good. I know that we as a family here, and I do love many, many maybe all here, I do, because we love him but we've been hit with the whip at times, our hearts set on fire by the love of God, and then the fires of hell, set ablaze from the evil ones, as fiery darts of words, like James talks about, words like from hell. The Lord is faithfull, and at the same time that this is happening, like a wicked wind, and dark clouds, and storm, at this very same time, the Lord is with us, in the storm, we must not fear, don't bow down to it, we are conquerors through him, who shed his blood for us, Christ Jesus, and it says, we are MORE THAN A CONQUEROR. We stand up to this, and say in Jesus name go from us, unclean spirits, by the power and the authority of the name of Jesus. We will not bow to*Goliath, his words, and wickedness will be no more, this is the word of the Lord, and it shall be as it is said. The wicked will flea, and they shall be no more. Praise HIm. I fight for the right to be free, and not in bondage to fear. I am free, because I've been set free, and who the Son of God, has set free is free indeed. At your name Jesus, we are free, to love, for you set us free from fear, "for perfect love" your love Lord, casts out fear. Amen.
