I want to commit suicide. | I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. As a Christian, I believe that God's love is unconditional and that He is always with us, even in our darkest moments. The Bible tells us in Psalm 34:18, 'The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.' If you're feeling overwhelmed or struggling with thoughts of suicide, I encourage you to reach out to a trusted person in your life, such as a family member, friend, or a mental health professional. Remember that you are not alone, and that there are people who care about you and want to help. |
Can humans fall in love with God? | Yes, humans can fall in love with God. The Bible teaches that God is love (1 John 4:8) and that He desires a personal relationship with each individual. Falling in love with God involves recognizing His love for us, seeking Him, and developing a deep and intimate connection with Him. It is a response to experiencing His grace, mercy, and presence in our lives. Loving God involves wholeheartedly surrendering to Him, obeying His commandments, and seeking to align our will with His. It is a transformative and fulfilling love that brings joy, peace, and purpose to our lives. |
Should a Christian date a non Christian? | The Bible advises against Christians being romantically involved with non-Christians. This is because Christians are called to be set apart from the world and to pursue God's will for their lives (2 Corinthians 6:14-18, 1 John 2:15-17). When a Christian is in a romantic relationship with a non-Christian, there can be a conflict of values and priorities, which can lead to spiritual compromise and difficulty in following God's plan for their lives. Additionally, the Bible warns against being unequally yoked with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14), which can lead to heartache and difficulty in the relationship. Therefore, it is wise for Christians to seek romantic relationships with other believers who share their faith and values (Proverbs 3:5-6, 1 Corinthians 15:33). |
Does the Bible say anything about autism? | The Bible does not specifically mention autism, as it is a modern medical diagnosis. However, the Bible does speak about God's love and care for all people, including those with disabilities. In Psalm 139:13-14, it says, "For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made." This verse reminds us that every person is uniquely created by God, and He values and loves each individual, regardless of their abilities or differences. |
How many times should I pray or read the Bible in a day? | There is no specific number of times that you should pray or read the Bible in a day. It is a personal and individual practice that varies for each person. However, cultivating a consistent and regular habit of prayer and Bible reading can be beneficial for spiritual growth. In 1 Thessalonians 5:17, it says, "Pray without ceasing," which encourages us to maintain a continuous attitude of prayer throughout our day. As for reading the Bible, Psalm 119:105 says, "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path," highlighting the importance of regularly seeking guidance and wisdom from Scripture. Ultimately, the frequency of prayer and Bible reading should be guided by your personal relationship with God and what feels meaningful and nourishing to you. |

I feel like i commited blasphemy against Jesus because of a dream made fun of him. | Dreams can sometimes be vivid and unsettling, and it is natural to have a range of emotions and thoughts upon waking from them. However, it's important to remember that dreams are products of our subconscious mind and do not necessarily reflect our conscious beliefs or intentions.
If you are feeling guilt or distress over a dream in which you feel you made fun of Jesus, it is important to remember that God knows your heart and your true intentions. Confess your thoughts and feelings to Him, ask for His forgiveness, and seek His guidance in understanding and processing the dream.
It can also be helpful to discuss your concerns with a trusted spiritual leader or mentor who can provide guidance and reassurance. They can help you discern the significance of the dream and offer biblical insight specific to your situation.

Hell is a place of eternal separation from God, but the good news is that through faith in Jesus, we can receive forgiveness and eternal life. Consider praying and seeking a personal relationship with Jesus to experience His love and grace. |

4. Philippians 4:6-7 - "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Instead of worrying, bring your job needs to God in prayer, with thanksgiving. Trust that He will provide peace and guidance.
Remember to actively seek job opportunities, utilize your skills and resources, and trust that God will open doors and guide you to the right opportunity. Keep praying, trusting, and seeking His will throughout your job search. |

Will there be bright star when Jesus comes back? | The Bible describes the second coming of Jesus in various ways, but it does not specifically mention a bright star appearing at that time. However, there are several passages that describe the return of Jesus in a powerful and glorious way.
In Matthew 24:30, Jesus says, "Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory." This passage suggests that Jesus' return will be a visible and powerful event that will be witnessed by all people.
Revelation 1:7 also describes the return of Jesus in a dramatic way, saying, "Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of him. So shall it be! Amen."
While the Bible does not specifically mention a bright star appearing at the second coming of Jesus, it does describe his return as a powerful and glorious event that will be witnessed by all people. As Christians, we look forward to the day when Jesus will return and establish His kingdom on earth, and we should strive to live each day in anticipation of that great event. |
How do I believe in Gods timing? | Believing in God's timing requires faith and trust in His wisdom and goodness. Hebrews 11:1 defines faith as "the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen." To believe in God's timing, we must have confidence that He knows what is best for us, even when we cannot see or understand His plans. We can strengthen our belief by studying and meditating on God's promises in the Bible, reminding ourselves of His faithfulness throughout history. Prayer is also essential, as it allows us to surrender our desires and concerns to God, trusting that He will work all things together for our good (Romans 8:28). |

Explain the gospel in 5 sentences. | 1. The gospel is the good news that God loves us and desires a relationship with us, but our sin separates us from Him.
2. Because of our sin, we deserve eternal separation from God, but Jesus came to earth, lived a sinless life, and died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins.
3. Through faith in Jesus, we can be forgiven of our sins and reconciled to God, receiving eternal life and a restored relationship with Him.
4. Salvation is a free gift of grace, not something we can earn through our own efforts or good works.

J still love him and believe I still tell others about him and give people advice and let them know God is with them. | That's wonderful to hear! Sharing the love of God with others and offering them advice and encouragement is a great way to spread the gospel and show others the love of Christ. Remember that even small acts of kindness and compassion can make a big difference in someone's life. The Bible says in Matthew 5:16, "In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." Keep shining your light and sharing the love of Christ with those around you, and trust that God will use you to make a difference in the lives of others. |
Hlw plz remind me where the Bible say thi wine was finish khana. | The story you are referring to is found in John 2:1-11. It is the account of Jesus attending a wedding in Cana of Galilee. During the celebration, the wine ran out, and Jesus' mother, Mary, approached him for help. Jesus instructed the servants to fill six stone jars with water, and miraculously, the water turned into wine. The master of the banquet tasted the wine and remarked that it was of exceptional quality. This event is often referred to as the first miracle of Jesus, demonstrating his power and ability to bring joy and abundance. |
Which Bible verse that says Sometimes God wants us to be alone so that we can have time with God? | While the Bible does not explicitly state that God wants us to be alone for the purpose of spending time with Him, there are verses that highlight the value of solitude and seeking God in quietness. Here are a couple of examples:
1. Psalm 46:10 - "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." This verse encourages us to find stillness and quietness in order to recognize and experience the presence of God.
2. Mark 1:35 - "Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed." This verse shows Jesus intentionally seeking solitude to pray and commune with God.
While these verses do not explicitly mention being alone for the purpose of spending time with God, they emphasize the importance of stillness, quietness, and seeking God in moments of solitude. It is in these moments that we can focus our hearts and minds on Him, listen to His voice, and deepen our relationship with Him. |
Give me the hardest verse in the Bible. | One verse that is often considered challenging is Luke 14:26, where Jesus says, "If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, even their own life—such a person cannot be my disciple." This verse can be difficult to understand at first, but it is important to interpret it in the context of Jesus' teachings on the cost of discipleship and the need to prioritize our commitment to Him above all else. |
The wages of sin. | The wages of sin is death, as stated in Romans 6:23: "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." This verse emphasizes the consequence of sin, which is spiritual and eternal death, separation from God. Sin leads to spiritual death because it separates us from the source of life, which is God. However, the verse also highlights the gift of God, which is eternal life through Jesus Christ. Through faith in Jesus and His sacrifice, we can receive forgiveness for our sins and the gift of eternal life with God. |

This verse warns against the harm caused by spreading gossip and rumors, which can lead to division and broken relationships.

This verse emphasizes the importance of speaking truthfully and not participating in spreading false information or being a false witness against others.
3. James 4:11: "Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge."
This verse reminds believers to refrain from speaking ill of others, as it goes against the principles of love and unity within the Christian community.
These verses encourage us to guard our tongues and avoid slandering or speaking ill of others, regardless of their popularity or status. Instead, we are called to speak truthfully, show love, and promote unity among one another. |
Will God eventually destroy Satan? | Yes, according to the Bible, God will eventually destroy Satan. In Revelation 20:10, it says, "And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night forever and ever."
This verse describes the final judgment and eternal punishment of Satan. It affirms that God's ultimate plan includes the destruction of Satan and evil.
While Satan may have temporary influence and power in this present age, his ultimate defeat is certain. God's justice will prevail, and Satan will face the consequences of his rebellion against God.
As believers, we can find hope and assurance in the knowledge that God is in control and that evil will not have the final victory. We are called to resist the devil, stand firm in our faith, and trust in God's ultimate triumph over evil. |
How to deal with spirit of rejection? | Dealing with the spirit of rejection can be a difficult and painful process, but there are steps you can take to find healing and freedom. Here are a few suggestions:
1. Seek God's help and guidance through prayer and reading the Bible. In Psalm 34:18, it says, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." You can ask God to heal the wounds of rejection and to show you His love and acceptance.
2. Identify the root causes of your rejection. This may involve seeking counseling or talking to a trusted friend or pastor. Understanding the reasons behind your feelings of rejection can help you address them more effectively.
3. Forgive those who have hurt you. In Matthew 6:14-15, it says, "For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins." Forgiveness can be a difficult process, but it is essential for finding healing and freedom from the spirit of rejection.
4. Surround yourself with positive and supportive people who will encourage and affirm you. In Proverbs 27:17, it says, "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." Being in community with others who love and accept you can help counteract the negative effects of rejection.
5. Focus on your identity in Christ. In Ephesians 1:4-5, it says, "For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will." Remembering that you are a beloved child of God, chosen and accepted by Him, can help combat the lies of rejection. |
Is eating pork a sin? | In the Old Testament, the dietary laws given to the Israelites in Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14 prohibited the consumption of certain animals, including pork. However, in the New Testament, Jesus declared all foods clean (Mark 7:19), indicating that dietary restrictions are no longer binding for Christians. The Apostle Paul further emphasized this in his writings, stating that believers are free to eat any food without guilt (Romans 14:14, 1 Timothy 4:4-5). Therefore, eating pork is not considered a sin for Christians. It is important to note that while dietary restrictions are no longer binding, Christians are encouraged to make choices that honor God and promote good health. |
Verse about trusting the lord. | "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." - Proverbs 3:5-6 |
Am I allowed to listen to secular music as a Christian. | As a Christian, the decision to listen to secular music is a matter of personal conviction and discernment. While the Bible does not explicitly forbid listening to secular music, it does encourage believers to be mindful of the influences in their lives and to focus on things that are pure, noble, and praiseworthy (Philippians 4:8).
It is important to consider the content, message, and impact of the music on your thoughts, emotions, and actions. Some secular music may contain lyrics or themes that go against biblical values or promote behaviors that are contrary to Christian principles. In such cases, it may be wise to avoid or limit exposure to such music.
However, not all secular music is inherently negative or contrary to Christian beliefs. There are many genres and artists that offer positive and uplifting messages. It is important to exercise discernment and choose music that aligns with your values and helps you grow spiritually.
Ultimately, it is a personal decision that should be made prayerfully and in accordance with your own convictions. Seek guidance from the Holy Spirit and consider seeking counsel from trusted spiritual mentors or leaders who can provide guidance in aligning your choices with biblical principles. |
How can I enter the kingdom of God when the rapture happens? | The Bible teaches that the way to enter the kingdom of God and be saved from the judgment that will come at the end of the world is through faith in Jesus Christ. Here are a few biblical principles that may be helpful as you seek to enter the kingdom of God:
1. Believe in Jesus Christ. John 3:16 says, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." This means that we must believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that He died on the cross for our sins and rose again from the dead.
2. Repent of your sins. Acts 3:19 says, "Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord." This means that we must turn away from our sins and turn to God, asking for His forgiveness and guidance in our lives.
3. Be baptized. Mark 16:16 says, "Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned." This means that we should be baptized as a symbol of our faith in Jesus Christ and our commitment to follow Him.
4. Follow Jesus Christ. Luke 9:23 says, "Then he said to them all: 'Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.'" This means that we should seek to follow Jesus Christ in all areas of our lives, and to live in a way that honors Him and reflects His love and grace to others.
Remember that entering the kingdom of God is not about our own efforts or good works, but about our faith in Jesus Christ and our willingness to follow Him. Take some time to pray, reflect, and seek wise counsel as you seek to enter the kingdom of God and live a life that honors Him. |
Based on what I told you do you think I blasphemed the Holy Spirit. | As an AI language model, I cannot make definitive judgments about personal experiences or intentions. Only you and God truly know the intentions of your heart and whether or not you have committed blasphemy against the Holy Spirit.
If you have concerns about blaspheming the Holy Spirit, it is important to seek guidance from a trusted spiritual leader or pastor who can provide personalized support and counsel. They can help you navigate through these concerns and provide biblical insight and guidance.
Remember, God's love, forgiveness, and grace are available to all who sincerely seek Him. Trust in His love, seek His guidance, and continue to strive for a closer relationship with Him. Allow His peace to comfort you as you seek to honor and reverence Him in your thoughts and words. |
What sin would it be called to not believe in God? | The sin of not believing in God is known as unbelief or disbelief. It is a rejection of God's existence and His truth. In the Bible, Hebrews 11:6 says, "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." It is important to have faith and trust in God's existence and His promises. |
I wasnt saying i dont fully believe in God. | I apologize for any misunderstanding. If you have any specific questions or topics you would like to discuss regarding your belief in God, I'm here to help. |
Is hitting a kid for stealing an offense to God? | The Bible encourages discipline and correction, but it also emphasizes the importance of doing so in a loving and appropriate manner. Proverbs 13:24 says, "Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him."
However, it is important to note that physical abuse or excessive punishment is not condoned by God. Ephesians 6:4 instructs fathers not to provoke their children to anger but to bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
When dealing with a child who has stolen, it is important to address the behavior with love, patience, and guidance. Teaching them about the consequences of their actions, encouraging repentance, and providing appropriate consequences can help them learn and grow. It is important to seek wisdom and guidance from God in handling such situations. |

2. Proverbs 31:8-9 - "Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy."

How would God provision a specific item for me like a Bible? | God can provision a specific item like a Bible in various ways. One way is through the generosity of others. God may lead someone to give you a Bible as a gift or provide resources for you to obtain one. Another way is through prayer. You can ask God to provide a Bible for you, expressing your desire and need for His Word. Trust in God's timing and His ability to provide for your needs.

What does the Bible say about begging for forgiveness? | The Bible teaches that we should humbly and sincerely seek forgiveness from God and from others when we have wronged them. Here are a few key teachings:
1. 1 John 1:9: "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." This verse encourages us to confess our sins to God, acknowledging our wrongdoing and seeking His forgiveness. When we genuinely repent and ask for forgiveness, God is faithful to forgive us and cleanse us from our sins.
2. Matthew 6:12: In the Lord's Prayer, Jesus instructs us to pray, "Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors." This highlights the importance of acknowledging our need for forgiveness and extending forgiveness to others. It reminds us to approach God with a humble and repentant heart, recognizing our own shortcomings.
3. Matthew 18:21-22: Jesus teaches about the importance of forgiveness in our relationships with others. Peter asks Jesus how many times he should forgive someone who sins against him, suggesting seven times. Jesus responds, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times." This emphasizes the need for a spirit of forgiveness and grace towards others.
4. Luke 17:3-4: Jesus instructs his disciples, "If your brother or sister sins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them. Even if they sin against you seven times in a day and seven times come back to you saying 'I repent,' you must forgive them." This passage emphasizes the importance of seeking forgiveness from those we have wronged and being willing to extend forgiveness when others seek it from us.
In summary, the Bible teaches that we should humbly and sincerely seek forgiveness from God and from others when we have done wrong. It also emphasizes the importance of extending forgiveness to others when they seek it from us. |

1. Share the Good News: Clearly communicate the message of salvation through Jesus Christ. Explain that all have sinned, but God offers forgiveness and eternal life through faith in Jesus' death and resurrection.

Verse about taking care of Gods people he will take care of you. | One verse that highlights the principle of taking care of God's people and God's promise to take care of you is Psalm 41:1 (NIV):
"Blessed are those who have regard for the weak;
the Lord delivers them in times of trouble."
This verse emphasizes the importance of showing kindness and care for those who are vulnerable or in need. It suggests that those who have regard for the weak or God's people will experience God's deliverance and provision in times of trouble.
By extending love, support, and care to God's people, we align ourselves with God's heart and His desire to bless and protect His children. This verse encourages us to actively demonstrate compassion and generosity towards others, knowing that God will reciprocate and provide for us in our own times of need. |

The angel announced the birth of Jesus, saying, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord." The heavenly hosts then praised God, saying, "Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests." |

What we call heaven presently it cannot be filled with physical beings correct instead it is filled with spiritual beings for our physical bodies remain on Earth can you please explain this? | Yes, according to the Bible, heaven is described as a spiritual realm where God dwells and where spiritual beings, such as angels, reside. In 1 Corinthians 15:50, it says, "I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable." This verse suggests that our physical bodies are not suited for the heavenly realm.
When believers pass away, their physical bodies remain on Earth, while their spirits are believed to go to be with God in heaven. In 2 Corinthians 5:8, it says, "We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord." This indicates that our true home is with God in the spiritual realm of heaven.
It is important to note that the concept of heaven is beyond our full comprehension as finite beings. While we may not fully understand the nature of heaven, the Bible assures us that it is a place of eternal joy, peace, and communion with God. |
Read Psalms for me am ready to give my life to Jesus Christ. | That's wonderful to hear! Giving your life to Jesus Christ is a life-changing decision. I encourage you to read Psalm 51 as a prayer of repentance and surrender to God. It is a heartfelt plea for forgiveness and restoration. May God's Word guide and inspire you on this new journey of faith. |
Who is the angel of the lord? | In the Bible, the "angel of the Lord" refers to a specific figure who appears in various instances throughout the Old Testament. This figure is often described as a divine messenger who represents God's presence and authority.
The identity of the angel of the Lord has been a subject of interpretation and debate. Some scholars believe that the angel of the Lord is a manifestation of God Himself, often referred to as a "theophany" or a visible appearance of God in human or angelic form.
Others suggest that the angel of the Lord is a distinct angelic being who is given special authority to act on behalf of God. In some instances, the angel of the Lord speaks and acts as if he is God Himself, while in other instances, he is clearly distinguished from God.
One notable appearance of the angel of the Lord is in the story of Moses and the burning bush in Exodus 3. In this encounter, the angel of the Lord appears to Moses in the form of a burning bush and speaks as God, revealing His name as "I AM WHO I AM."
Ultimately, the exact nature and identity of the angel of the Lord remain somewhat mysterious. It is important to approach these passages with careful study and interpretation, seeking to understand the message and purpose behind the appearances of the angel of the Lord in each specific context. |
Can Bible verses mean multiple things? | Bible verses can sometimes have multiple layers of meaning or applications. The Bible is a rich and complex collection of texts that contains various literary genres, such as historical accounts, poetry, wisdom literature, and prophetic writings.
Some verses may have a straightforward and literal meaning, while others may have symbolic or metaphorical interpretations. Additionally, different individuals or theological traditions may interpret certain verses differently based on their understanding and context.
It is important to study the Bible in its entirety, considering the surrounding verses, historical context, cultural background, and the overall message of Scripture. Seeking guidance from trusted biblical scholars, pastors, or commentaries can also provide valuable insights into the different possible meanings of specific verses.
Ultimately, the Holy Spirit can illuminate the meaning and application of Scripture to individuals as they seek God's guidance and study His Word with an open heart and mind. |
If Jesus is not God and I believe he is will go to hell. | The belief in Jesus as the Son of God and our Savior is a fundamental aspect of Christian faith. The Bible teaches that Jesus is indeed God in human form, the second person of the Trinity. In John 10:30, Jesus says, "I and the Father are one."
Salvation is not solely dependent on having a perfect understanding of theological concepts, but on having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and placing our faith in Him. Romans 10:9 states, "If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
God's grace and mercy extend to those who sincerely seek Him and place their trust in Jesus as their Lord and Savior. It is not for us to judge the eternal destiny of others, as that is ultimately in God's hands.
If you believe in Jesus as God and have placed your faith in Him, the Bible assures us of the hope of eternal life. John 3:16 says, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
Continue to grow in your understanding of God's Word and seek a deeper relationship with Him. Trust in His love, grace, and forgiveness, knowing that salvation is found in Jesus Christ alone. |
How to apply faith? | To apply faith in your life, consider the following steps:
1. Trust in God: Place your trust in God and His character. Believe that He is loving, faithful, and capable of fulfilling His promises.
2. Seek God's Will: Seek to align your desires and decisions with God's will. Pray for wisdom and guidance, and ask the Holy Spirit to lead you in making choices that honor God.
3. Study God's Word: Regularly read and study the Bible to deepen your understanding of God's promises, teachings, and examples of faith. Apply the principles and truths you learn to your daily life.
4. Pray: Develop a consistent prayer life, expressing your needs, desires, and concerns to God. Trust that He hears your prayers and will answer them according to His perfect will and timing.
5. Step out in Obedience: Act in obedience to what you believe God is calling you to do, even if it seems challenging or uncertain. Trust that God will provide the strength, resources, and guidance needed to fulfill His purposes.
6. Persevere: Maintain faith and trust in God, even in the midst of trials, setbacks, or unanswered prayers. Remember that faith is not always about immediate results, but about trusting in God's faithfulness and sovereignty.
7. Surround Yourself with Support: Seek fellowship with other believers who can encourage and support you in your faith journey. Engage in a community of faith where you can learn, grow, and be accountable.
Remember, faith is a lifelong journey, and it requires continual nurturing and growth. As you apply faith in your life, you will experience the transformative power of God and witness His faithfulness in remarkable ways. |
Is it a sin to listen to worldly music? | The Bible does not specifically mention listening to worldly music as a sin. However, it does teach that we should be careful about the things we allow into our hearts and minds. Philippians 4:8 says, "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things."
While not all worldly music is necessarily bad, some songs may contain lyrics or messages that are contrary to biblical values, such as promoting violence, sexual immorality, or materialism. As Christians, we are called to live in the world but not be of the world (John 17:16), which means that we should be discerning about the things we allow into our lives.
Ultimately, it is up to each individual to prayerfully consider what kind of music they listen to and whether it aligns with their values and beliefs. As 1 Corinthians 10:31 says, "So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God." |
If their distinct it makes them different with effectively makes them partners with God. | In Christianity, the belief in the Holy Trinity does not imply that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are separate or distinct in the sense of being partners with God. Rather, they are understood to be distinct in their roles and relationships within the one God.
The concept of the Holy Trinity is an attempt to understand and articulate the complex nature of God as revealed in the Bible. Christians believe that God is one in essence and nature, while existing in three persons. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are believed to be fully God, sharing the same divine essence, and united in their purpose and nature.
While they are distinct in their roles, such as the Father as the Creator, the Son as the Savior, and the Holy Spirit as the Comforter and Guide, they are not separate entities or partners. They are seen as existing in perfect unity and harmony, working together in the divine plan of salvation.
It is important to note that the concept of the Holy Trinity is a theological mystery that goes beyond human comprehension. Christians embrace this belief as an expression of their faith and understanding of God's revelation in the Bible. |
How does God teach us how to pray? | God teaches us how to pray through the example of Jesus and through His Word, the Bible. In Matthew 6:9-13, Jesus provides a model prayer known as the Lord's Prayer. This prayer teaches us to approach God with reverence, acknowledging His holiness and sovereignty. It also includes requests for God's will to be done, provision for our daily needs, forgiveness of our sins, and protection from temptation.
Additionally, throughout the Bible, we see examples of prayers from various individuals such as David, Solomon, Daniel, and Paul. These prayers demonstrate different aspects of communication with God, including praise, thanksgiving, confession, and supplication.
God also encourages us to pray with faith and persistence, as seen in verses like Matthew 7:7-8 and Luke 18:1-8. He invites us to come to Him with our needs, concerns, and desires, knowing that He hears and answers our prayers according to His perfect will. Ultimately, God teaches us to pray by inviting us into a personal and intimate relationship with Him, where we can freely communicate and seek His guidance, comfort, and provision. |
Someone told me I should break up with my girlfriend to have a relationship w God. | It's important to seek God's guidance in your relationships, but breaking up solely for the purpose of having a relationship with God may not be necessary. The Bible encourages believers to pursue relationships that honor God and bring them closer to Him. If your relationship is healthy and supports your spiritual growth, it may not be necessary to end it. Seek wisdom through prayer and seek guidance from trusted mentors or spiritual leaders. |
Why do I feel embarrassed to pray to God? | Feeling embarrassed or self-conscious about praying to God is a common experience for many people. It can stem from a variety of reasons, such as feeling unworthy, fear of judgment, or a lack of familiarity with prayer.
It is important to remember that God is loving, compassionate, and understanding. He desires a personal relationship with you and wants to hear from you. Psalm 34:17 says, "When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles."
Prayer is a way to communicate with God, to express your thoughts, concerns, and desires to Him. It is a personal and intimate conversation between you and your Creator. You can approach Him with honesty, humility, and openness, knowing that He accepts you just as you are.
If you feel embarrassed to pray, take comfort in knowing that God already knows your heart and desires to meet you in your vulnerability. Start by simply talking to Him, expressing your thoughts and feelings. As you grow in your relationship with Him, you may find that your confidence in prayer increases.
Remember that prayer is not about impressing others or following a specific formula. It is about connecting with God and seeking His presence and guidance. Embrace the opportunity to communicate with Him, knowing that He delights in hearing from you. |
What do you call knowledge outside the Bible? | Knowledge outside the Bible is often referred to as general or worldly knowledge. This includes information and understanding that is acquired through various means such as scientific research, historical records, cultural studies, and personal experiences.
The Bible does not claim to provide exhaustive knowledge about every subject or field of study. It primarily focuses on revealing God's nature, His plan of salvation, and providing guidance for living a godly life.
While the Bible is the ultimate authority for matters of faith and spirituality, it does not cover every aspect of human knowledge. Therefore, it is important to seek wisdom and discernment from various sources, including general knowledge, while filtering it through the lens of biblical principles and teachings.
As believers, we are called to integrate our faith with the knowledge we acquire from the world, always aligning it with the truths and values revealed in the Bible. This allows us to engage with the world around us in a way that honors God and reflects His truth. |
What requirements were talked about in verse 15 of romand 16? | I apologize for the confusion, but there is no verse 15 in Romans chapter 16. Romans chapter 16 contains greetings and personal remarks from Paul to various individuals. If you are referring to a different verse or chapter, please let me know so I can provide the correct information. |
I believe that everyone is chosen but since God did give us free will that we can make the choice but we should make the right choice and follow him to be saved. | Thank you for sharing your perspective on the concept of predestination. Your belief aligns with the idea that God desires all people to be saved (1 Timothy 2:4) and that individuals have the freedom to choose to follow Him. It emphasizes the importance of making the right choice to follow God and accept His salvation. This perspective acknowledges both God's sovereignty and the responsibility of individuals to respond to His grace. |
How to repent of the sins of marijuana? | Repenting of any sin, including the misuse or abuse of marijuana, involves a sincere and genuine change of heart and a turning away from that sin. Here are some steps you can take to repent:
1. Acknowledge and confess your sin: Recognize that the misuse or abuse of marijuana goes against God's design for our bodies and can hinder our relationship with Him. Confess your sin to God, admitting your wrongdoing and expressing genuine remorse.
2. Repentance and turning away: Repentance involves a change of mind and a turning away from sin. Make a deliberate decision to turn away from the misuse or abuse of marijuana and commit to living in obedience to God's will.
3. Seek forgiveness: Ask God for forgiveness, knowing that He is faithful and just to forgive us when we confess our sins (1 John 1:9). Trust in His grace and mercy to cleanse you from all unrighteousness.
4. Renew your mind: Fill your mind with God's Word and seek to align your thoughts and desires with His truth. Meditate on passages that encourage purity, self-control, and honoring God with your body (e.g., 1 Corinthians 6:19-20).
5. Seek support: Surround yourself with a community of believers who can provide encouragement, accountability, and support as you seek to live a life that honors God. Consider seeking guidance from a pastor or a trusted spiritual mentor who can provide guidance and counsel.
Remember, repentance is an ongoing process. If you stumble or struggle in your journey, don't lose heart. God's grace is abundant, and He is always ready to forgive and restore those who humbly seek Him. |
Is the holy spirit equally God? | Yes, the Holy Spirit is equally God along with the Father and the Son. The Bible teaches that there is one God who exists in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. This is known as the doctrine of the Trinity.
The Holy Spirit is referred to as God in several places in the Bible. For example, in Acts 5:3-4, Peter confronts Ananias and Sapphira for lying to the Holy Spirit, and says that they have not just lied to men, but to God.
The Holy Spirit is also involved in many of the same activities as God the Father and God the Son, such as creating the world (Genesis 1:2), inspiring the prophets (2 Peter 1:21), and empowering believers for ministry (Acts 1:8).
So, while the Holy Spirit is distinct from the Father and the Son, He is equally God and deserves our worship and obedience. |
Who was grandma for Jesus Christ? | The Bible does not provide specific information about the grandparents of Jesus Christ. The genealogies mentioned in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke trace the lineage of Jesus back to King David and Abraham, but they do not mention the names of Jesus' grandparents. The focus of the biblical accounts is primarily on Jesus' earthly parents, Mary and Joseph, and His divine nature as the Son of God. |
Best prayer for Jesus. | One of the most well-known prayers in the Bible is the Lord's Prayer, which Jesus taught his disciples in Matthew 6:9-13:
"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one."
This prayer acknowledges God as our Father and the ultimate authority, asks for His will to be done, and asks for forgiveness and protection. It can be a powerful way to connect with Jesus and seek His guidance and grace in our lives. |
Can a Christian marry a non Christian? | According to the Bible, it is generally discouraged for a Christian to marry a non-Christian. In 2 Corinthians 6:14, it says, "Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?"
This verse highlights the importance of shared beliefs, values, and a common faith foundation in a marriage. A marriage between a believer and a non-believer can present challenges in terms of spiritual unity, worldview, and the ability to fully live out one's faith.
However, it is important to note that every situation is unique, and God's grace and guidance should be sought in making such decisions. If a Christian is already married to a non-Christian, the Bible encourages them to show love, respect, and be a positive influence within the marriage (1 Corinthians 7:12-14).
Ultimately, it is important for individuals to seek God's wisdom, pray for guidance, and seek counsel from trusted spiritual leaders when considering marriage to ensure they are following God's will for their lives. |
How to greet God as a dear friend? | When greeting God as a dear friend, you can approach Him with a sense of familiarity and intimacy. Here are a few ways to greet God in this manner:
1. Begin with a warm and personal salutation: You can start by saying, "Dear God," or "Loving Father," to express your closeness and affection.
2. Express your love and gratitude: Share your heartfelt appreciation for God's presence in your life and the deep bond you share. Thank Him for His unwavering love, friendship, and guidance.
3. Speak from your heart: Share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences openly with God, just as you would with a close friend. Be authentic and transparent, knowing that God understands and accepts you completely.
4. Seek His companionship: Invite God to walk with you through every aspect of your life, just as you would invite a dear friend. Ask Him to be present in your joys, sorrows, and everyday moments, knowing that He desires to be intimately involved in your life.
5. Listen and be still: After expressing your greetings and sharing your heart, take time to listen and be still in God's presence. Allow Him to speak to you through His Word, through the prompting of the Holy Spirit, or through a deep sense of peace and assurance.
Remember, the friendship we have with God is unique and special. It is built on love, trust, and a desire for deep connection. Approach Him with authenticity, vulnerability, and a heart full of love, knowing that He cherishes your friendship and desires to be close to you. |

Is being non religious a sin? | The Bible teaches that faith in God and a relationship with Him through Jesus Christ is the path to salvation and eternal life. However, the Bible also recognizes that people have the freedom to choose their beliefs and that not everyone will believe in God or follow a specific religious system.
While being non-religious itself is not explicitly described as a sin in the Bible, the rejection of God and His teachings can have spiritual consequences. The Bible encourages individuals to seek God, acknowledge their need for salvation, and place their faith in Jesus Christ as the way to reconcile with God.
It is important to approach those who are non-religious with love, understanding, and respect, sharing the message of God's love and salvation through Jesus Christ. Ultimately, it is God who judges the hearts and the eternal destiny of individuals, and our role is to share the truth of the Gospel and leave the outcome to Him. |
Bible verse on going into battle. | One Bible verse on going into battle is found in Psalm 18:39, which says, "For you equipped me with strength for the battle; you made those who rise against me sink under me." This verse reminds us that God is our source of strength and protection in times of conflict. Another verse is Ephesians 6:11, which says, "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil." This verse encourages us to rely on God's armor and spiritual weapons as we face spiritual battles. |
Give me one example that jesus is real. | One example of the reality of Jesus is his resurrection from the dead. The empty tomb and the numerous post-resurrection appearances to his disciples and others provide strong evidence for his existence. The apostle Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 15:3-6, "For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers and sisters at the same time." The resurrection of Jesus is a pivotal event that confirms his existence and the truth of his teachings. |
The flesh is inversity against God what verse. | The verse that speaks to the conflict between the flesh and God is Romans 8:7, which says, "For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot." This verse highlights the inherent opposition between our sinful human nature (the flesh) and God. It emphasizes that when our minds are focused on worldly desires and pleasures, we are at odds with God's will and His law. It reminds us of the need to surrender our fleshly desires and submit to God's guidance and commands. |
Does God forgive the sins we forget? | Yes, God is willing to forgive all sins, even those we may forget or overlook. In 1 John 1:9, it says, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." This means that when we confess our sins to God, He is faithful to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness, even if we don't remember every single sin we have committed. However, it is important to strive for repentance and to turn away from sin, even if we don't remember every detail of our past wrongdoing. |

One important aspect of church administration is financial management. This includes budgeting, accounting, and financial reporting. Churches rely on the generosity of their members through tithes and offerings, and it is essential to handle these resources responsibly and ethically. Proper financial management ensures that funds are allocated appropriately to support ministry activities, maintain facilities, and meet the needs of the community.
Another key area of church administration is human resources. This involves recruiting, training, and managing staff and volunteers. Churches rely on dedicated individuals who serve in various roles, such as pastors, worship leaders, teachers, and administrative staff. Effective human resource management ensures that these individuals are equipped and supported in their roles, fostering a healthy and productive church environment.
Facilities management is also an important aspect of church administration. Churches often have physical buildings and spaces that require maintenance, cleaning, and scheduling. Proper facilities management ensures that the church facilities are safe, welcoming, and conducive to worship and other activities. It involves overseeing repairs, renovations, and coordinating the use of spaces for different events and ministries.
Strategic planning is another critical component of church administration. This involves setting goals, developing strategies, and implementing plans to fulfill the church's mission and vision. Strategic planning helps the church leadership to prioritize activities, allocate resources effectively, and adapt to changing needs and circumstances. It involves assessing the current state of the church, identifying areas for growth and improvement, and developing action plans to achieve desired outcomes.
Church administration also encompasses legal and regulatory compliance. Churches are subject to various laws and regulations, such as tax laws, employment laws, and zoning regulations. It is important for church administrators to stay informed and ensure compliance with these requirements to avoid legal issues and maintain the church's integrity.
In addition to these areas, church administration involves communication and coordination within the church community and with external stakeholders. This includes maintaining effective communication channels, coordinating events and programs, and fostering relationships with other organizations and the wider community. Effective communication and coordination support the unity and effectiveness of the church's ministry and outreach efforts.
Overall, church administration plays a vital role in supporting the mission and vision of the church. It involves managing resources, overseeing operations, and facilitating the smooth functioning of the church community. Effective church administration enables the church to fulfill its purpose, serve its members and the wider community, and glorify God through its activities and ministries. |

The Spirit of wisdom. | The Spirit of wisdom is a term used in the Bible to describe the Holy Spirit, who is the third person of the Trinity. In Isaiah 11:2, it says, "The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him—the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord." The Spirit of wisdom is one of the sevenfold manifestations of the Holy Spirit, and it is the Spirit who gives us the ability to understand God's truth and to apply it in our lives. In 1 Corinthians 2:12-13, it says, "What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words." The Spirit of wisdom is essential for our spiritual growth and understanding of God's will. |
What does it mean to have a gentle and quiet spirit? | Having a gentle and quiet spirit refers to an inner disposition characterized by humility, gentleness, and tranquility. It is a quality that is highly valued in the Bible and is often associated with a godly character.
A gentle spirit is marked by kindness, patience, and a willingness to extend grace and forgiveness to others. It is not easily provoked or quick to anger. Instead, it seeks to promote peace, harmony, and understanding in relationships.
A quiet spirit does not necessarily mean being silent or lacking a voice. Rather, it refers to a calm and peaceful demeanor, free from agitation, anxiety, or a contentious spirit. It is a spirit that trusts in God's sovereignty and finds rest in His presence, even in the midst of challenges or trials.
Having a gentle and quiet spirit does not mean being weak or passive. It is a reflection of inner strength, self-control, and a reliance on God's wisdom and guidance. It is a way of living that reflects the character of Christ and draws others to Him.
In 1 Peter 3:4, it says, "but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious." Cultivating a gentle and quiet spirit is a lifelong journey that involves surrendering to the Holy Spirit's work in our lives and allowing God's love and grace to shape our attitudes and actions. |
People go to churches looking for mantles to buy. | While it is understandable that people may desire to experience the power and anointing of God in their lives, it is important to approach the idea of "buying mantles" with caution and discernment. In the Bible, the anointing and calling of God cannot be purchased or obtained through material means.
The true source of spiritual power and anointing comes from a personal relationship with God, through faith in Jesus Christ, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. It is not something that can be bought or sold. The apostle Peter rebuked Simon the sorcerer when he tried to buy the power of the Holy Spirit, saying, "May your money perish with you because you thought you could buy the gift of God with money!" (Acts 8:20).
Instead of seeking to purchase mantles or spiritual experiences, it is more important to seek God through prayer, worship, studying His Word, and being part of a community of believers. The true power and anointing of God are freely given to those who seek Him with a humble and sincere heart. |
Will God still answer my prayers after not praying for one week? | Yes, God is always ready to listen and answer our prayers, regardless of how long it has been since we last prayed. God's love and grace are not contingent on our consistency in prayer. However, it is important to maintain a consistent and regular prayer life to cultivate a deeper relationship with God. Taking breaks or not praying for a week does not mean that God will stop listening or answering your prayers. When you are ready to pray again, approach God with a sincere heart, and He will be there to listen and respond according to His perfect timing and wisdom. |

How to do prayer of tounge? | The practice of praying in tongues, also known as speaking in tongues or praying in the Spirit, is a gift of the Holy Spirit mentioned in the Bible (1 Corinthians 14:2, 14:14-15). Here are some steps to help you engage in this form of prayer:
1. Seek the Holy Spirit: Begin by seeking a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit. Ask God to fill you with His Spirit and to grant you the gift of praying in tongues.
2. Surrender and yield: Open your heart and mind to the leading of the Holy Spirit. Surrender your thoughts and emotions to Him, allowing Him to guide your prayer.

4. Start with praise and worship: Begin your prayer time by praising and worshiping God. This helps to set the atmosphere and focus your heart on Him.
5. Yield your tongue to the Spirit: As you pray, allow the Holy Spirit to move your tongue and speak through you. It may feel like a flow of words or sounds that you don't understand, but trust that it is a form of communication with God.
Remember, the gift of tongues is meant to edify and build up the individual and the church (1 Corinthians 14:4, 14:26). It is a personal and intimate form of prayer that can deepen your relationship with God. |
Gods peace in life. | Experiencing God's peace in life is a wonderful blessing. In Philippians 4:7, it says, "And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

It involves surrendering our worries, fears, and anxieties to Him through prayer and seeking His guidance in all things.

No I was using it as a example but I got reminded of the thought and it turned it to damn the Holy Spirit to hell. | I understand that you are feeling distressed about the thoughts you have been experiencing.

It is common for intrusive thoughts to be unwanted and distressing, and they can sometimes involve disturbing or inappropriate content. However, it is crucial to recognize that these thoughts do not reflect your true character or relationship with God.
I encourage you to seek support from a trusted spiritual leader, counselor, or mental health professional. They can provide guidance and help you navigate through these challenges. They can also assist you in developing healthy coping strategies and finding ways to manage intrusive thoughts effectively.
Remember, God's love and forgiveness are greater than any struggle or fear we may face. Trust in His mercy, seek His guidance, and allow His peace to calm your troubled thoughts. Keep praying and seeking His forgiveness, and remember that He understands your heart and intentions. |

What time is the best for doing your prayers? | The Bible does not specify a specific time for prayer. However, many believers find it helpful to establish a regular prayer routine that works best for them. Some choose to pray in the morning to start their day, while others prefer to pray in the evening before bed. Ultimately, the most important thing is to have a sincere and consistent prayer life, seeking God's guidance and fellowship throughout the day. |
Are the father the son and the holy ghost the same? | According to Christian doctrine, the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit are considered one God in three persons, commonly referred to as the Trinity. The Trinity is a complex theological concept that attempts to explain the nature of God as revealed in the Bible.
While they are distinct persons, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are believed to share the same divine essence and are co-equal and co-eternal. They are united in purpose, essence, and will, yet they are also described as having distinct roles and functions.
It is important to note that the concept of the Trinity is a mystery that is not fully comprehensible by human understanding. It is a foundational belief in Christianity and is based on the teachings of the Bible. |
How long should I read the Bible for? | The length of time you spend reading the Bible can vary depending on your schedule and personal preference. It's more important to focus on the quality of your reading rather than the quantity. Even a few minutes of intentional and focused reading can be meaningful and impactful. However, if you have the time and desire, aim for at least 15-30 minutes to allow for deeper reflection and understanding. Remember, the goal is to engage with God's Word and allow it to speak to your heart and transform your life. |
I receive in Jesus name. | Amen! May you receive the peace and comfort of Jesus in your life. Trust in His name and His power to bring healing and restoration. If there's anything specific you would like to pray for or if you have any other questions, feel free to let me know. God bless you! |

Is it in gods will to grow and expand our mind? | Yes, it is in God's will for us to grow and expand our minds. God has created us with the capacity for learning, understanding, and acquiring knowledge.
In Proverbs 18:15, it says, "An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge." This verse encourages us to seek wisdom and knowledge, indicating that God values intellectual growth and development.
Furthermore, God calls us to love Him with all our mind (Matthew 22:37). This means that we are to engage our minds in the pursuit of understanding and discerning His truth.
Expanding our minds allows us to gain a deeper understanding of God's creation, His Word, and His ways. It equips us to think critically, make informed decisions, and engage with the world around us in a way that honors and glorifies God.
Therefore, as we seek to grow and expand our minds, we align ourselves with God's will and position ourselves to better fulfill His purposes for our lives. |
Can I put up Christmas trees? | The Bible does not specifically mention Christmas trees, so there is no direct commandment for or against them. As Christians, we are called to focus on the true meaning of Christmas, which is the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. If putting up a Christmas tree helps you and your family celebrate the holiday and keep your focus on Christ, then it can be a meaningful tradition. However, it is important to remember that the tree itself is not the focus of the holiday, but rather a symbol to help us remember the true reason for the season. |
Where is my name recorded in the Bible? | The Bible does not specifically mention or record the names of every individual who has ever lived. However, the Bible does contain various genealogies and lists of names that are significant to specific individuals or lineages.
While your name may not be recorded in the Bible, it is important to remember that God knows you intimately and personally. In Isaiah 43:1, God says, "I have called you by name; you are mine." God knows and cares for each individual, and our significance is found in our relationship with Him rather than in being mentioned by name in a book.
Ultimately, the most important thing is to have your name recorded in the Book of Life, which is mentioned in several places in the Bible, such as Revelation 20:15. This book symbolizes eternal life and salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. By placing your faith in Jesus and following Him, you can have the assurance of having your name written in the Book of Life and experiencing eternal life with God. |

The cevdci version of the Bible cannon. | The "Cevdci" version of the Bible is not a recognized or widely used translation or version of the Bible. It does not appear to be a commonly known or accepted canon of scripture.
The Bible is a collection of sacred texts that varies in the number of books and their arrangement depending on different Christian denominations and traditions. The most widely recognized canons are the Protestant, Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox canons, which include different books and versions of the Bible.
If the "Cevdci" version refers to a specific translation or edition of the Bible, it would be helpful to provide more information or clarify the context for a more accurate response. |
So believes will soon have more authority than the angels. | The Bible does mention that believers will have a role in judging angels in the future (1 Corinthians 6:3). This suggests that believers will have a position of authority and responsibility in the coming kingdom of God. However, it is important to approach this understanding with humility and reverence, as the specifics of this judgment and the extent of our authority are not fully explained in the Bible.
It is also crucial to remember that angels are powerful spiritual beings created by God, and they currently serve as messengers and servants of God. While believers may have a role in judging angels in the future, it does not mean that we will have greater authority than angels in the present spiritual realm. Our ultimate authority and power come from God alone, and we are called to submit to His will and follow His guidance. |
