    Thinking about killing myself

    Hi Ummza. I'd like to share where I'm at right now. Some similarities, and hopefully I may have something that is helpful. The Lord has had me going thru 'discipline' as talked about in Hebrews. Well during this time I am very isolated. I spend time with God when He leads me to. I do get to...

    Hebrews 12:1

    Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us... So who do you think these great cloud of witnesses are? I always thought them...

    Greek

    You know I was thinking the other day. If the argument that the KJV has words that are outdated, meaning the meanings of the words have changed some today, wouldn't the same be for the Greek words that always get looked up? Back then, some could've had different meanings too.

    James 5:14-16

    'Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church and they are to pray over him...and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him.' I heard this 'sick' is actually a sin sickness. What does the Greek say for this word? Then it says 'Confess your sins to one...

    Luke 45-51

    Woe to you! For you build the [a]tombs of the prophets, and it was your fathers who killed them. 48 So you are witnesses and approve the deeds of your fathers; because it was they who killed them, and you build their tombs. 49 For this reason also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them...

    Sober in the Spirit excludes what exactley?

    Seriously. I'm never sure what is or isn't sober in the spirit. Like is acting goofy, joking, is that not sober in the spirit? Or just even laughing at things? I don't get it. What are ways one is not sober in the spirit? I have a definition of calm and collected, temperate, dispassionate...

    Need clarity

    First, I want to say I really like this board because there are so many people in here that give good answers. The sermon on the mount. I never seem to really get clarity between these two sayings. It's like the answers are the same. Which they shouldn't be because why would Jesus repeat...

    What do you think this means

    'Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles had occurred in Tyre and Sidon which occurred in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. Nevertheless I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgement than for you.' Matt...

    A contentious subject, but...

    Ok, this is about tongues again. This question is for tongue speakers, tho, so maybe not so contentious. I speak in tongues a little hear and there. God has really had me glued to His Word these last two years as foremost of anything at all in my life. The tongues only comes out sometimes...
