Jesus Christ Teaches about Evil People Saying "You Are From BELOW"

the strange part is modern historians try to reconcile this

Sumerian tablets the two main rulers of earth were Enlil and Enki. These brothers ended up having a falling out.

Enlil/Yaweh is the ruthless one. Hateful of man for the most part not wanting them to be any thing more than slave who could not reproduce and thought of them as animals.

And it was Enki, who loved man and always wanted to show him things, help them, and ultimately save them from the flood.

Enki/Lucifer,stands for and goodness

Enlil/Yaweh is the evil one

as in: how did history become changed when the hebews translated the older cultures now known before them

it`s a problem

My neighbors, husband and wife team, are both school teachers. They just had a child last year and spend every moment they can with their precious little one throughout the summer.

God Bless You!

The fate of the wicked.

that is interesting:

John 7

1After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.

2Now the Jew's feast of tabernacles was at hand.

3His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.

4For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.

5For neither did his brethren believe in him.

6Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready.

7The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.

8Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast: for my time is not yet full come.

9When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee.

10But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.

who was jesus talking to

The scriptures clearly teach that God cannot be the author of evil. James 1:13 states "Let no one say when he is tempted. 'I am being tempted by God'; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone." And further "Every good thing bestowed and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation, or shifting shadow." (emphasis added) We know that God is not a God of confusion (1 Cor 14:33). Psalm 18:30 tells us "As for God, His way is blameless" and "Thou art not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; no evil dwells with Thee (Psalm 5:4). Also, "The Lord is righteous in all His ways, and kind in all His deeds." (Psalm 145:17)

Now, we know that all of these Scriptures cannot be wrong on the nature of God, so we must re-examine your exegesis of the Hebrew word ra'. Hebrew is an ancient language that was much more limited in scope than say Greek. Frequently, the same words were used in several contexts to mean different things. Why, even in English the word blue could mean a color or someone feeling depressed.

The word ra' is used throughout the Old Testament with several meanings. It is used many times to mean something morally evil or hurtful (Job 35:12, 1 Sam 30:22, etc.) but it is also used to mean an unpleasant experience (Gen 47:9 and Prov. 15:10). It is used to describe fierce beasts (Lev. 26:6), and even spoiled or inferior fruit (Jer 24:3). Certainly, the figs that Jeremiah was looking at were not evil in the sense of morally reprobate!

In Isaiah 45, the word evil is used in a contrast to the peace and well-being discussed before it.

1 Kings 22:22
And the LORD said to him, With which? And he said, I will go forth, and I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, You shall persuade him, and prevail also: go forth, and do so.

2 Thessalonians 2:11
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2 Thessalonians 2:12
That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

It separates them it seeks them and it pulls them out by pulling what was in their hearts out....pleasure in unrighteousness

Another teaching about the wicked. They die a second death and will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

Yes, and a third death, and a fourth death, and a fifth death..........and many many more, depending upon how many times they must retake THIS classroom of lessons!

Until they get it right.......and then get off this merry-go-round!!!

Anyways, that's another way of looking at it......?

Good afternoon obeWaneKenobe...

Well, i'm sorry to tell you this but according to Scripture there are only 2 deaths. The second one is the final decision.

Well maybe that's because the guy giving the lesson in the bible, didn't know there were more?

Jesus said:

7 "The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify about it that its works are evil".

John 7:7

The great thing about being in spiritual kindergarten is that your lessons are as simple as you are and just as easy to understand.

Don't be silly!

Have you formed an opinion on elenin?

Comet or brown dwarf???

Have we become so desensitized to sin, that we don't recognize evil anymore?

I mean, there is the apparent evil such as murder, pedophilia, rape, incest--you get the picture.

But then there is the subtle evil, which is what, I believe, is the message of this thread.

In Genesis chapter 6, verse 5: "Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually."

That is difficult to comprehend about man--"thoughts of his heart was only evil continually."

What were the evil thoughts of his heart that angered God to the point of wiping them all out, except for Noah and his family along with an ark of animals.

I think this is why it has become so hard to reach people these days with gospel, because evil is under disguise.

Matthew 7 verse 11, where Jesus Christ himself calls a group of people evil. As it states, these are words directly from Jesus Christ's own mouth:

"If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him!"

Imagine being there at that moment when He said that. What is the evil Jesus is referring to? We are evil, but we can give good gifts.

Exactly. To me it goes with...

"All have sinned"

We all need our Savior, Jesus Christ. Good deeds is not

good enough.

God is completely Holy... we are unholy.

In the book of Isa. (not sure where), it states - All our righteousness are as filthy rags.

Lets not forget, we are still sinners.
Jesus Christ is our righteousness
