2 Bible verses that show you what is temptation

By -

Exactly! What is temptation? Apostle James has spoken so simple and so well what is temptation:
"But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by His own desires and enticed" - James 1:14

The key of this Bible verse here, at least for me, is the word "desire". Let's see what happened with Eve when she was tempted by Satan:
"So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate..." - Genesis 3:6.

What exactly want James to say in his letter to Christians about desires? When you were turned back to God, the old flesh still wanted you with all your old desires, but God already given you enough strength, courage and faith to conquer the temptation.

When you are born again, is about of Holy Spirit when God renew you in the faith of Jesus Christ. And because of Holy Spirit in you, you became a child and a son of God. Enough to understand that you and all godly Trinity are One. And that will help defeated temptation as you daily follow God!

Is important to walk daily with God so you may be courageous to defeat temptation meanwhile you will know God.

Stick to the Bible, God bless you and comment down below!

What is the righteousness in John 16:10? Powerful revelation!

By -
I am so excited to show you a incredible revelation of faith in God, but I would love to read with you John 16:8-11 . Let's read it: " And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgement; of sin because they do not believe in Me; of righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me no more; of judgement, because the ruler of this world is judged " Jesus has spoken these Bible verses above to His disciples about the Holy Spirit promised to all people who will belive in Jesus Christ, send by the God, our Father in heaven! Read also Acts 1:8 and Acts 2:1-4 . Right here I wanna explain you shortly what I believe is about. Is about the victory of Jesus Christ resurrected from death because in Him was found no sin to keep Him dead, and right now is stays to the right of God, our Father in heaven - that is about: believe in Jesus Christ resurrected who stays to the right of our Father in heaven, and he will come back on...

The great revelation of Matthew 7:23

By -

What is about? Well Matthew 7: 23 says that: " And then I will declare to them: "I never KNEW you; depart from Me, you who work lawlessness ". So what is about this verb " KNEW "? It's about the unity and identity in Jesus Christ and in the Father in heaven through Holy Spirit. Let's see Romans 8:11: " But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead DWELLS in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who DWELLS in you ". Now let's take a look to Romans 8:15. " For you did not receive a spirit of bondage again to fear, but you receive a Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father ". So in these first two Bible verses we see our identity in God as children of Him by Holy Spirit. It's so important!!! Galatians 5: 24-25 shows us to live in God and how. Let's see! " And those who are Christ's have crucified the fl...

If there is is only one God why are more than 4000 religins?

By -

Screenshots from Facebook I have seen from Facebook the next question, which, of course, I made a screen shot, and I already gave an answer to Mamodou Lamin Bajo  on Facebook. The question sounded like this: "If there's one God, why are there more than 4000 religions?" When human being has sinned, has lost the connection with God. God was there with Adam and Eve, but they couldn't comprehend God anymore, because the sin has broken the spirit of human being. The perfect human being in greatest relationship with God has become unperfected human being in confusion of understanding God and couldn't reach in relationship with God! But something remained deep in the human being: the thirsty of eternity, the thirsty of spiritual food. But they have lost connection with God, even if He was there to support them. So how they feed themselves spiritually? Will see that... If we understand that, then we can understand why human being, people (in gener...

What you missed from John 18:36?

By -
Image
Well, me tell you that this verse is about the identity of Christ which was important for Him to fulfill the Word of God and prophecies of grace. Lets see the verse mentioned in the title of what Jesus Christ said: " My KINDOM is not of this world. If My kindom were of this world, my servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My KINDOM is not from here ". Did you noticed Bold (B) words from the verse above? Yes! That's what I am telling you! Those words were come out from the mouth of Jesus! What this mean? Shortly , cause we don't have enough time, if you remember Jesus Christ said this world is settled in Satan through, well is about that Jesus will over come Satan and this sinful world when He will come back on the skies among of millions of angels. I cannot explain you to much right now because of time you can study closer the Bible relating to this subject. Why still is not the world part of the Kindom of G...

How it looks the sacrifice of Jesus Christ? Dramatic videoclip!

By -
Image
Recently I just upload for you on Youtube a videoclip with a antelope that has sacrifice her self for her baby. What I could understand is that that antelope mother has loved her baby antelope more then her life, more than her body. I connect this with John 3:16 where says that God has loved us so much that motivated Him to give everything for us, humankind: Jesus Christ, her beloved Son sacrificed on the cross for our sins. Jesus Christ didn't loved His life, nor His body. He died for our sins. The difference between Jesus Christ and that antelope is that Jesus Christ is God and human being in the same time, is our Lord and Savior, our Redeemer that has been resurrected with the power of Holly Spirit, cause in Him was no sin. His sacrifice this way was good before God. Dear friends! If you like this post, kindly you can comment down below and (please) do share your great response! God bless you!

What is the sin?

By -
Image
Making short, if you want to understand what is the sin, you have to go in Genesis, chapter 2 , when Eve has been tempted by Satan. Important is to see how she has been tempted by Satan. What the Bible says about Eve? She saw the tree of knowledge beautiful and good to eat because she believed the lying words of Satan. One more is to see the origin of sin, when Lucifer (Satan) wanted to be like God. He saw himself the most beautiful angel and had the biggest position in heaven of God. He was the liders of worship and praising. He was a good commercial person - Ezekiel 28:16 . He was in Eden before humankind being created (read Ezekiel 28:13, Luke 10:18 ). People say that the origin of sin is pride, is Lucifer. It might be that. What I say here is that the sin is any action that comes against God in any way, no matter how. This is the sin.  Why God is against the sin? Well, I have a answer for that: discover God and you will see how is God. The answer is simple: God is Holy...

Not by strength and power, but by My Spirit

You may you read when Holy Spirit was hovering on the dark surface on the Earth at the beginning of the world, when our planet still didn't have a form and was void. Right in that time, when Holy Spirit was hovering over the surface of the Earth, God said "Let there be the light" and it was - Genesis 1:3. When Jesus healed people from their diseases, He simply said "Be healed" - Luke 5:13 , because Holy Spirit was upon Jesus Christ - Isayah 61:1 . When the virgin Mary asked the angel how she will have the Son of God in her womb, the angel answered: "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, the Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God" - Luke 1:35 . When Gideon had to fight against Midianites, God has guide Gideon to chose only 300 people who lap the water like dogs of whole camp of Israel, those who were completely unskilled to fight. The camp of Midianites wer...

Praise the Lord - the key of victory in temptations

By -

There is no Christian who is not facing temptation in his or her life. Even our Lord, Jesus Christ has been tempted by Satan, but successfully has defeated Satan by the Word of God. The paragraph from Judges 7 shows us how to defeat out battles: worship and praise the Lord daily!  Now let me tell you something: devil knows that worship is a great key of victory of God in our lifes and devil is fighting hard that we may not see worship and praise to God is not valuable, is in vain and useless. Well that's a big lie, cause Jesus called Satan the father of lie! Gideon and 300 were praising and worshiping the Lord on the road of fight and they had the victory against Midianites.  What Jesus said about in prayer "Our Father in heaven" that "do not lead us into temptation". Well, the apostle Paul said to Corinthians that God will not allow temptation over our power to defeat us and God finds a way to escape from temptation.  When Jesus was tempted b...

Alien means extraterrestrial, somebody more than human being. To understand what means alien we have to see that all angels and demons are aliens! What ever you in entertainment movies is nothing. Let's see what about our Lord, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Greatest of the greatests! First let's see what Luke 1:35 says when the virgin Mary asked the angel of God how she will have the Son of God in her womb: " The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest One will overshadow you; therefore, also, the Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God" . Is that verse make you clear? If not let me give you another one. Let's see what John 1:3 says: " All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made ".  If this verse is not enough, let me give you Daniel 3:24,25 where the three friends of Daniel were cast in fiery furnace because they didn't wanna worship and to bow dow...

Why the Bible is so important?

By -

I have to Bible verses for this subject and these are Joshua 1:8 and 2 Timothy 3:16 . When you face temptation, trials and other unexpected situations (even are good or bad), you need to know the Bible to handle. Before giving you these Bible verse I want to give strong Bible verse from John 6:63 . Let see this Bible verse: "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I speak to you are spirit, and they are life".  This Bible verse is so profound and was spoken by Jesus, not by any apostle of Jesus! When Jesus was tempted by Satan, He defeated Satan with the Bible. Now cause you saw the Bible verse above, let's see what Joshua 1:8 say: " This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success". Now let's see what 2 Timothy 3:16 say a...
