Thank you frederickdoc. I am getting tired and need to go. We will visit another time.
I like Aaron raised his in Blessing hands up until the spirit of the Lord came apon whole room
When Jesus ascended his hands were raised blessing just as Aaron that's the last image you have and the blessing is still in motion
Now you have my attention. I will look into that. Thank you.
Melchizedek .clue u in, if you look at Isaiah 11. talks about branchtown, the Branch ,thats NetZer this prophecy is the one that fooled the religious leaders,that pretty much knew the word of God, word for word , because Jesus hometown didn't exist in the Old Testament you'll notice in the Gospel some that knows Messiah comes and those who think where Messiah comes they will say Jesus of Galilee like the religious leaders . Go now & See what Andrew Phillip say?
Then in Isaiah,pay attn to Parah grow is the translation RUACH pay closer attn have fun translate from the old words also hebrew greek Aramaic
Isaiah prophecy is like about at least seven prophecies jesus fullfilled and ajso know how jesus quotes Isaiah regularly and adding to it or explaining Better
By the way king of Salem means King of Peace .i use salem so now you never forget once you know orig Jerusalem that also means peace
The word reveals Paul prayed and sang with the spirit, and was glad he spoke with tongues more than those he addressed:
"For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.
What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.
Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?
For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:" 1 Cor. 14:14-18
The Word reveals Spiritual gifts are manifestations of the Spirit:
"Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. (1 Cor. 12:1)
And there are diversities of operations, (different operations) but it is the same God which worketh all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. (1 Cor. 12:6-7)
For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom;
To another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
To another faith by the same Spirit;
To another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
To another the working of miracles;
To another prophecy;
To another discerning of spirits;
To another divers kinds of tongues;
To another the interpretation of tongues:
But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. (1 Cor. 12:8-11) Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret. (1 Cor. 12:13)
Paul is NOT saying that he prays in an unknown tongue. In 1 Corinthians 14 Paul uses a third‑class conditional clause—ἐὰν + subjunctive—to speak hypothetically about himself: “If I should pray in a tongue…” (ἐὰν προσεύχωμαι). This construction belongs to the subjunctive mood, the Greek way of expressing a situation that is possible but not asserted as fact. By choosing this form, Paul is not claiming that he personally prays in a tongue; he is creating a first‑person hypothetical to expose the logic of the situation. His point is that even if he himself were to pray in a tongue, the act would be unfruitful without interpretation, because the mind would remain unengaged. The grammar signals that Paul is reasoning from a hypothetical scenario, not describing his own practice, in order to show that intelligibility—not ecstatic speech—is what builds up the church.
If you want, I can also craft a shorter version or one that highlights the contrast with 1 Corinthians 13’s “If I speak with the tongues of men and angels…” using the same hypothetical self‑reference device.
Exactly! Paul doesn't suggest that we ask someone else to interpret, he commands that the person speaking interpret.
A question.
Years ago. A friend, while sitting in a local church, had the opposite of feeling the spirit.
Like his internal organs were being squeezed and the air was being squeezed out him.
This happened to him on two different occasions.
Also, I heard of another guy having a similar experience in that church building.
What was this?
Since it is obvious that your native language is not English, I will guess Cantonese.
Are you ashamed of your native tongue? You should not be.
Show me a verse from the Bible that specifically says that someone who goes by the name 'Lamar' on the world wide web Christianchat.com is a genuine Christian first. How about a verse that proves that the United States exists while you are at it?
The problem with my requests is similar to the problem with yours.
I disagree.
The type of errors you are making suggest someone from southern China, possibly Hong Kong.
I dont know it could be a few things was the result a Glory to the lord ?
Feeling pain of others to know what to address is possible.
Then it could be something removed that the lird needs out of them .
I did see one time after a miricle The Devil choking someone
In any situation the Lord himself will show tell and sometimes it may take years to get the full picture of what had happen. I need more of their event was it comforting? Lead to comfort
Or just bad and that left them empy? What interests me the most is why they told you?
