A closer walk with Jesus every day!!!:)
God works with people as the Grand Potter. Guess that's why we made of clay. Formed in womb and molded in life. From a marred piece of clay to glory. I'm not seeking. I already found. tho I was lost. YeHaw. If anything I am seeking what God has revealed to others that I may have missed. Cause sometimes I'm Sloooow!

Hello everyone out there.

How can who is His not believe? Matt. 13:18 to 50
Well, that would be because of Isaiah's prophecy, which is listed right in the scripture:

==========================================================

This is why I speak to them in parables:

‘Though seeing, they do not see;

though hearing, they do not hear or understand.’

In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled:

‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding;

you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.

For this people’s heart has grown callous;

they hardly hear with their ears,

and they have closed their eyes.

Otherwise they might see with their eyes,

hear with their ears,

understand with their hearts,

and turn, and I would heal them.’

=================================================

Those whom Jesus was speaking to in parables, was that generation of Israel and that in fulfillment of Isaiah's prophecy listed above. But as Paul wrote regarding Israel:

"Just as you (Gentiles) who formerly disobeyed God have now received mercy through their (Israel's) disobedience, so they too have now disobeyed, in order that they too may now receive mercy through the mercy shown to you. For God has consigned everyone to disobedience so that He may have mercy on everyone.

Just look at the prophecies that were full filled in the short span of our Lords life. I think it is so sad some wont be with the Lord in the end.

Thank you seeker. Just as the Lord did everything the Father told Him we must do the same. Those who are blessed will pass the blessing on. God gave me this saying. "Wisdom is gained in silence, and passed on in deeds". You know like when your thinking about something but then all of a sudden something comes to you out of no where? Anyway you will pass on what is revealed to you as well as I. Its our duty.

Hello, I do like it here. There's nothing I would rather be doing. I can praise God, talk about God all day and all night. I have to get use to where I post my reply so I'm not doubling up. Did you have any questions? want a nice read? "The Valley of Vision". It's a book of prayers from The Puritans. Are from the 16th century. They are deep and heart felt. The saying, "I believe, but help my unbelief" is from the Puritans. God Bless

I said at birth. I've always been His. Gods been in my heart all my life. Yet a sinner I am.
You must be born again. Then you will not be a sinner any more. You were born a sinner, now you need to get saved. Come to Jesus today. Satan has deceived many, but it is not too late, Anthony.

Read Chapters 14 &54 of Psalms. None are good. We are saved by Grace.
