  It's so sad seeing all these "easter" church services online, which by using that Satanic pagan word "easter" and not God's word "First Fruits" hides from your congregation Christ's fulfillment of God's 7 Holidays. By using the word "easter" your church remains in ignorance that God literally prophesied the VERY DAY of Christ's death on the cross, the VERY DAYS of his burial, and the VERY DAY of his resurrection. It's truly sad to see. I grew up in these churches in Lancaster, Pa, and I see they are still doing the same thing. It' so sad. Everyone in church remains ignorant of God's prophetic Word, which is why they have no "ears to hear" that Jesus is returning on God's 5th Holiday of the year "Feast of Trumpets", also knows as the feast "no man knows day or hour". Well, I guess the ignorance will continue for most church-goers right up until the day of Christ's return. Path...

I don't believe Jesus turned water into fermented (alcoholic) wine, Mary, but simply wonderful tasting non-fermented (zero alcohol) grape juice ... http://www.netbiblestudy.net/bulletin/new_page_90.htm Grab ya some Welch's 100% concord grape juice, and just imagine water turning into that beautiful sweet amazing tasting drink. YUM!!!!!! : ))) So much better tasting than alcoholic wines. And thus, "you have saved the best wine for last"

The Water Of Life John 7:38-39 "He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, 'From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.' But this He spoke of the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified." John 4:14 "But whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life." Proverbs 18:4 "The words of a man's mouth are deep waters; The fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook." Psalm 110:7 "He will drink from the brook by the wayside; Therefore He will lift up His head." Isaiah 12:3 "Therefore you will joyously draw water From the springs of salvation." Revelation 22:1-2 "Then he showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of God and of the Lamb, in the middle of its street On either sid...

  Hi Dini, See how this lesson fits in with your experience. You certainly hav been tested. Lesson 3: Rising Above Troubles (part 2) Read James 1:2-12 -  www.bible.com/bible/59/jas.1.esv

Jesus has given everyone a chance to find him to really really seek out until he comes If you stop and look around to other people who have what we want in the flesh, we will feel angry The only person we’re supposed to want to be like is Jesus For many years, I didn’t work sometimes I get a job sometimes I don’t have a job Before Jesus appeared to me, I was very poor. My parents were divorced. My mom was sick. Everything seemed very hopeless. But after he came to me, he made possibilities For money for work to take care of me, but only after he came, we have to want him to appear to us first after that like he said the kingdom of heaven, and after you find it, everything will be given to you

  Just because things go well for someone doesn’t mean that God loves them more. He has his purposes that we can’t understand or know. Look at Joseph. He was thrown in a well, sold into slavery, spent time in prison before having the honor of running Egypt. Daniel was put in a lion’s den before becoming a king’s advisor. Jesus did not have an easy life and had a horrible death. We just have to trust that God knows what he is doing. The story isn’t over yet. I think your suffering has made you strong. You have more capability than you realize. Jesus told Peter that each person has his own relationship with him and their own plan, so don’t compare. Find out what your plan is.

  Dini, the best thing is always to NOT compare your life to the life of others. You are unique to God and have a spiritual journey that is unique to you. Stay close to God through reading and praying the Bible. Keep asking God for wisdom about your life. I do not have your answers. You seem stuck in your father's house taking his money and not moving forward independent from him. Think about looking for a real job outside his house and saving money to gain some independence. Only God has wisdom for you. Not me.

  Dini, you are right to keep your eyes on the Trinity and what they have done and are still doing for you today. Fill your mind with God's thoughts from the Bible and it will push out the devil's thoughts and feelings. Keep moving forward with joy and peace in your heart today. Keep imaging yourself moving out of your father's house and being independent from him at some point in your life.

  Hi Dini, It is good you are thinking about your future. Keep reading the Bible and asking God for wisdom for your life. I have put Psalm 23 below. Blessings on your day with the Lord.   The Lord Is My Shepherd-Psalm 23 A Psalm of David. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

  Hi Dini, Adversity can make us grow stronger or it can defeat us. God can help us persevere. What did these men say about adversity:

  Lesson 9: Write these verses in your own words and explain how these truths should make a difference in your life. • 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. • Proverbs 28:13 Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper , but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. • Romans 12:1-2 A Living Sacrifice 12 z I appeal to you therefore, brothers, 1 by the mercies of God, a to present your bodies b as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2 2 c Do not be conformed to this world, 3 but be transformed by d the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may e discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. 4 • Colossians 2:6 And now, just as you accepted Christ Jesus as your Lord, you must continue to follow him. You have accepted Christ Jesus as your Lord.

  Yes, Dini, you are a clean, pure woman of God and your spiritual husband is the Lord Jesus Christ. You are His Beautiful Bride. It is really important that you spend time each day imaging yourself this way. This will build a new wiring in your mind that will be full of holy thoughts and feelings. Reading Scripture with the Holy Spirit will help also build this new wiring.   Dini, I don't think I got your answers to Lesson 8. I have put it below again.  Lesson 8: The Word of God 1. What is the spiritual food of a Christian? (Matthew 4:4) 2. According to 2 Timothy 2:15, how can you be a good worker for God? 3. According to 2 Timothy 3:16-17 where does Scripture come from and how can it help you? 4. Who are Christ's disciples? (John 8:31). 5. When should you think about God's words? (Psalm 1:2) 6. Read Psalm 119:9-16. Which verse speaks to you the most? Why?

What a wonderful testimony to God’s grace and faithfulness to you. He is working in your life and it is exciting to see. Change comes with struggle and difficulty, but it does come. I think you will be able to move forward as God guides your decisions. I read from Timothy Keller’s book on Proverbs every day. Here is another section—actually about Job—that you may find interesting. “Like Job, we too get no full explanation for our suffering. Yet we know what Job did not—that God joined us here in our darkness, and that, though truly, perfectly innocent, he perished. Jesus also experienced the absence of God, the betrayal of friends, physical agony, and nakedness. In Gethsemane, Jesus saw that if he obeyed God fully, he ‘d be absolutely destroyed and abandoned in hell. No one else has ever faced such a situation. Jesus truly “served God for nothing.” The evil that assaulted Jesus, in the end, defeated itself. The death of Jesus for our sins means that someday God can judge and destroy al...

  Hi Dini, Let’s get started on faith and practice. Lesson 1 - Practical Christianity, Introduction Read James 1:1-2 -  www.bible.com/bible/59/jas.1.esv

  Lesson 7: The Church 1. Paul frequently compares the church to a human body. According to Ephesians 5:23, Who is the only head of the church? 2. I Corinthians 12:12-13: a) How do these verses see the Body of Christ? b). How do people become members of the Body of Christ? 3. As members of Christ's Body, how should we feel toward each other? (I Corinthians 12:25-26) 4. Read Acts 1:6-11. a) Where does the church get its power?  b) Where does the Bible say Jesus went physically? 5. Describe in your own words how Jesus will come again for His church (Acts 1:10-11). Who knows when that will be? (read also Mark 13:32-33) 6. Although Jesus is spiritually present in our hearts through the presence of the Holy Spirit, He is also with God the Father in Heaven. (All of the Trinity are omnipresent--everywhere at the same time). In the future, Jesus will return to judge the world and rule the nations (Matthew 25:31-32). In the meantime, the church is to be His witness on Earth and bring a...

  Lesson 48: Jesus is Coming Back! Print Modified on: Tue, 8 Dec, 2020 at 12:08 PM Lesson 48: Jesus is Coming Back! Revelation 22:6-21 6 And he said to me, “These words are trustworthy and true. And the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent His angel to show His servants what must soon take place.” 7 “And behold, I am coming soon. Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.” 8 I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me, 9 but he said to me, “You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God.” 10 And He said to me, “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near. 11 Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy.” 12 “Behold, I am comi...

  Lesson 47: The River of Life Revelation 22:1-5 1 Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 through the middle of the street of the city; also, on either side of the river, the tree of life with its twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. 3 No longer will there be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His servants will worship Him. 4 They will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads. 5 And night will be no more. They will need no light of lamp or sun, for the Lord God will be their light, and they will reign forever and ever. We will use these verses about what our eternal home will be like to contrast with things we tend to want or believe to create our own version of heaven. Verse 1 describes a river of the water of life; we want something to drink that is more exciting tha...

  Lesson 46: The New Jerusalem Revelation 21:9-27 9 Then came one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues and spoke to me, saying, “Come, I will show you the Bride, the wife of the Lamb.” 10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great, high mountain, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God, 11 having the glory of God, its radiance like a most rare jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. 12 It had a great, high wall, with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and on the gates the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel were inscribed— 13 on the east three gates, on the north three gates, on the south three gates, and on the west three gates. 14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. 15 And the one who spoke with me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls. 16 The city lies foursquare, i...

  Lesson 45: New Heaven and New Earth Revelation 21:1-8 1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. 2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be His people, and God Himself will be with them as their God. 4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” 5 And He who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” Also He said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” 6 And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of lif...

  Lesson 44: The Final Judgment Revelation 20:7-15 7 And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be released from his prison 8 and will come out to deceive the nations that are at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea. 9 And they marched up over the broad plain of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city, but fire came down from heaven and consumed them, 10 and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. 11 Then I saw a great white throne and Him who was seated on it. From His presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them. 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the bo...

  Lesson 43: The Millennial Kingdom Revelation 20:1-6 1 Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding in his hand the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain. 2 And he seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, 3 and threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he might not deceive the nations any longer, until the thousand years were ended. After that he must be released for a little while. 4 Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. 5 The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. 6 Bles...

Dini, that is a good verse to memorize. Good for you. I don't think I ever received your answers to the lesson #6 below. Lesson 6: The Resurrection 1. What did Jesus tell His disciples in Luke 18: 31-33? 2. If Jesus had clearly predicted that He would rise from the dead and then failed to do so, what would this say about Him? 3. What did Jesus' friends do to make certain His body would not be taken? (Mark 15: 46) 4. What did Jesus' enemies do to make sure His body would not be taken? (Matthew 27:62-66) 5. List all the individuals or groups who actually saw the risen Christ, according to I Corinthians 15: 4-8. 6. What did Jesus do to prove He was not a hallucination? (Luke 24:36-43) 7.What would be true if Christ had not risen from the dead? (I Corinthians 15: 17) 8. Describe the change in Peter's life comparing Luke 22: 54-62 and Acts 4:1-22.  

  Lesson 42: Rider on a White Horse Revelation  19:11-21 11 Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. 12 His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems, and He has a name written that no one knows but Himself. 13 He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which He is called is The Word of God. 14 And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following Him on white horses. 15 From His mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. 16 On His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords. 17 Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and with a loud voice he called to all the birds that fly directly overhead, “Come, gather for the great supper of God, 18 t...

  Lesson 41: Marriage Supper of the Lamb Revelation 19:6-10 6 Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns. 7 Let us rejoice and exult and give Him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His Bride has made herself ready; 8 it was granted her to clothe herself with fine linen, bright and pure”— 9 And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.” 10 Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said to me, “You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God.” For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. All through the New Testament we see images of and reminders for how the Church (all true believers since Jesus’ mini...

  Hi Dini, God gives us the general plan in allegorical terms. Lesson 37: Explanations, part 2 Revelation 17:8-18 8 The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to rise from the bottomless pit and go to destruction. And the dwellers on earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world will marvel to see the beast, because it was and is not and is to come. 9 This calls for a mind with wisdom: the seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman is seated; 10 they are also seven kings, five of whom have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come, and when he does come he must remain only a little while. 11 As for the beast that was and is not, it is an eighth but it belongs to the seven, and it goes to destruction. 12 And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received royal power, but they are to receive authority as kings for one hour, together with the beast. 13 These are of one mind, and they hand over their ...

  Lesson 40: Rejoicing in Heaven Revelation 19:1-5 1 After this I heard what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying out, “Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, 2 for His judgments are true and just; for He has judged the great prostitute who corrupted the earth with her immorality, and has avenged on her the blood of His servants.” 3 Once more they cried out, “Hallelujah! The smoke from her goes up forever and ever.” 4 And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who was seated on the throne, saying, “Amen. Hallelujah!” 5 And from the throne came a voice saying, “Praise our God, all you His servants, you who fear Him, small and great.” A question that is often asked by someone who has just buried a loved one who did not know Jesus as their Savior is, “How will I not cry when I still miss my loved one in Heaven?” The best answer I know for this question is found in Romans 8:18; our joy and glo...
