  1. It's in regards to a previous discussion of which that exact verse was brought up, Srecko Sostar, it is not of my own design, check the Strong's and maybe you will learn something for I addressed this to you before when you didn't believe the disciples carried money on them. Plus I only referenced it since we are, once again, discussing this passage. Here, this time I am holding your hand and directing you to the Greek Strong's 905 moneybag/money belt [a purse]: https://biblehub.com/greek/905.htm The irony here is the website you pulled the verse from even tells you: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+22%3A36&version=NIV https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+22%3A36&version=ASV https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke 22%3A36&version=ESV Bur wait, there's more. Check it for yourself on Biblehub, notes point to moneybag, money belt, a purse: https://biblehub.com/luke/22-36.htm If you are thinking women purses, then my friend, you fall upon man's understanding again and not the Strongs. That being said, nowhere in any review of this passage it is shown there was temptation involved when the cross-references gives you the answer and the very fact Jesus was showing the Disciples a lesson, a vital one that is to be learned, and it applies to us today, hence why I references the verses from Matthew and John. The big question now is where are you drawing temptation from in regards to the whole passage itself in this chapter? No cross-references to the passage alludes to temptation at all. Also if I may add, you are misusing the verse in James in regards to the passage for the wrong reasons. mainly when you have this verse referenced to Genesis 22:1, Matthew 4:7, James 1:14. Has nothing to do with Jesus and the lesson he was teaching his disciples in that particular situation.
  2. @AllenSmith34 The point was obvious. I didn't see how that was missed. BibleGateway and Biblehub even points to that lesson also, and that is pretty much holding your hand to lead you to the right answer.
  3. Caiaphas had sent soldiers to go after and arrest Christ Jesus during nightfall. Jesus was very aware of this, so during his final meal with his apostles, he asked them to get some swords. 2 would be used, and Jesus had them get the swords so he can teach them a vital lesson, which brings us to Luke 22:36-38 (moneybags [a purse] is also mentioned but last we talked you didn't believe they carried any). Later that night, one of the apostles, Peter, used a sword to attack a member of the mob that came for Jesus for he himself knew of the injustice that was taking place, read, John 18:10.Due to this, we see Jesus say to Peter, for he told him to return his sword to its place, for all those who take up the sword will perish by the sword, read Matthew 26:52, 53. This is the vital and yet powerful lesson Jesus taught that was in harmony within what Jesus prayed about earlier that night, hence the term, they must be no part of the world (John 17:16). What Peter did was not for him to make, but anything in regards to fighting such an injustice belongs to and is left to God. Sostar... The cross references even points to the very lesson Jesus was trying to teach. How did you miss that? You when to Biblegateway and it shows you there also. To show them a lesson which is in harmony with what he prayed about the night before. The cross-references even tell you. Not advice, a lesson. The other Apostles were also present when Jesus spoke, hence the talk about money bags/purse and food pouches. YHWH's Law and Jesus Law? You do realize Jesus is a mediator of the New Covenant, the very Law of which Paul addresses in a symbolic term as the Free Woman in direct reference to Sara or did you forget the Biblical Facts addressed to you in the last discussion?
  4. Steve Wozniak's (The Woz) Net Worth is estimated to be $100 million USD. Check this out: https://www.cnbc.com/2017/04/21/why-apple-co-founder-steve-wozniak-doesnt-trust-money.html and https://www.cnbc.com/2017/04/21/why-apple-co-founder-steve-wozniak-doesnt-trust-money.html As for Bill Gates, I'd say he is still richer, he is sitting at a Net Worth of estimated to $97.9 billion USD. The only riches among them I can think of is Amazon's founder, Jeff Bezos, who is having an estimated Net Worth of $161.6 billion USD. Then we have Warren Buffet at $89.2 billion USD.
  5. @James Thomas Rook Jr. The response was directed to @Jack Ryan. I say this because anyone who actually helps people, those of a community, with these problems take offense to that, granted when you yourself have heard the stories, the actions taken, the very fact that so and so relapsed and feel like his or her life is over, and so forth, it is a list of things. This is why I stated to look up Pillow in that community and you will see for yourself how people respond. We mustn't start with Otakus either because that is a whole other can of worms of which people, mainly Americans, bash the culture practiced by some youth in Japan, which seems to have a spilled a bit over into the US and EU, granted it is known some Otakus only do such, hence Pillow, because of their emotional and or current state as well as their self-esteem. The very reason why I even told Ryan if he had posted this or something similar regarding a pillow, it will anger those who help people avoid masturbation and pornography, it will sadden and put more burden on those who are fighting to get away from masturbation and pornography, and by reading their experiences, even hearing them in person, it shows, and the feeling is there. People fight with their inner demons everyday, mainly in this domain, we should be giving them a reason to let their guard down, the very reason why that community and the Reboot family exist, for they know how it is and how to handle things. That being said, regarding that small clip you posted and what I said before to you, any contact and or touching/or simulation of the male and or female reproductive organs is sexual contact. It is considered as pornea, it is also in the same category of masturbation. Other than that, it does it you in the feelings when you have to hear what someone who is dealing with that has to say. But I guess soon I will make a thread regarding this in full detail and how today's society and culture in the US and EU embrace such things as if it is normal when in reality it is not.
  6. @James Thomas Rook Jr. No money, no honey, no food on table = Going to have a bad time. For some guy's they will have that one wife that will say: "My mother was right, I should not have married you" and a whole list of other things.
  7. The Russians are currently on the side of Iran and Syria, as for Israel, they are with the US and the UK. Israel, is pretty much that one guy in the team that cannot take a loss so easily, resulting in acting out in the way they do to get a reaction. Things like this is taking place due to how Israel and Iran are with each other and Israel's attempts to try and provoke Iran. But it is crazy how Israel has jumped the gun several times now, while at the same time committing crimes of their own in their own area. Eventually things will tip off the scale and far more serious things will take place, and seeing how gullible Trump is, he will have his way in this also, alongside with the puppet masters from the Shadow Government who are tickling his ears. As of now, everyone's eyes is on Israel, those, that are aware of course.
  8. I've addressed the prisoner in my last response, 2nd half, and such a person should be kept in prison and we should be open to do more to prevent such issues to begin with. Wanda Barzee didn't even go through a health assessment and didn't cooperate with such at all regarding mental health and risk, she never showed up to her own parole hearing and yet the Justice System allows her to roam about freely. Even Elisabeth Smart herself stated that she does not understand why such an incomprehensible thing have been done, but also trying to explore options, and I quote: "I am trying to understand how and why this is happening and exploring possible options... And will work diligently to address the issue of Barzee's release as well as to ensure changes are made moving forward to ensure this doesn't happen to anyone else in the future." Barzee still remains a threat, and just putting her out there, a prisoner who had showed to not be so acceptive of what was already stated, shouldn't be out there at all. If we can keep Ariel Castro in prison, we can do the same with Wana Barzee. And as it can be seen, there is huge outrage. I wouldn't call it an essay, just and extended response, and I thank the one called Cos for that. But things such as human trafficking and kidnappings irks me because it is common to folks who are of the same nationality like me, and the very fact I have to live with the same nonsense that is running rampant like a virus and it goes far deeper than that. That being said, like I stated before, the real monsters should be kept in cages, like Ms. Smart and others, they are seeking better solutions to increase the prevention of such things taking place, we do not need more to suffer like Elizabeth Smart and others, some even killed in the future. No one should be subjected to go through that. Elizabeth Smart herself will soon be speaking out on the matter, and we will soon see what she has to say in connection with her statement.
  9. And here we have it, once again US ally, The Israelis taking action, as stated before, they do not like the idea of the Iranians being in Syria, moreover, they don't like the Iranians as I kind of said something similar a while back here: . More information of this will eventually come out, but this is what it is for now, awaiting more information on this myself for there are people already digging deep into this situation. Quoting the source [The Syrian Girl]: Syrian air defense systems have intercepted Israeli rockets that were fired over Syria's annual Damascus international fair held near the international airport. Tens of thousands of people were attending the party. Some are asking why would Israel attack a party? Perhaps it's because Damascus's annual international fair is targeted at international investors, especially for reconstruction! Last year, US backed terrorists struck the international fair with mortars killing six people. It's clear they want to embarrass Damascus in front of potential reconstruction investors:Â https://www.reuters.com/article/us-mideast-crisis-syria-mortar/six-people-killed-in-mortar-attack-at-damascus-fair-monitor-idUSKCN1B00MX Israel will, of course, claim they were targeting Iranians, as if they have a right to! Here is other angles the missile(s) situation: Â Â
  10. People give their life for family. People give their life for members of their community and or faith. Some people give their lives for a dog or cat they care about because the animal is of the family, sometimes it is the animal themselves who save the owner. People give their life to defend their serve to God, even for God if met with a situation, for they believe their name is in the book of Life and God will bring them back. So it is no surprise that a Christian who give his or her life for another Christian. I recall a story back then a little boy gave his life to stop a bomb from going off killing people close to him, hie Father, family and friends consider him a hero. Another young one who gave his life to stop those close to him from being killed by an out of control car, and he was very very young, I believe between the ages 5-7, for if it was not for him, those close to him would also be dead, and he is deemed as a hero. And there are many, many examples.
  11. Or perhaps such insects were hidden well within the fur and skin of animals on the Ark itself. You do realize animals and the like carry bugs on them, perhaps fleas as well? As for Cockroaches, those things tend to survive anything, literally. Speaking about Roaches, for Educational Purposes I will link a video below, which is somewhat related:  Other facts: https://www.pestworld.org/news-hub/pest-articles/fascinating-cockroach-facts/  As for fun, Houston flood so bad roaches got boats, somewhat intelligent too: Â
  12. And? One who masturbates and has an addiction to pornographic imagery is not a joke, regardless of who they are. Why not counsel such ones then be on-board with those who make fun of them? That being said, I dare you to post this in the Anti-Masturbation and Pornography Reddit and see how well that goes with you, for they do not take kindly to those who post such things like that an they don't care what faith you follow,, they will go against you when they themselves know that people can be helped with such a problem: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/ or perhaps take a look here for someone had something interesting to say to help himself avoid masturbation and pornography: or Look it up via Google and you will find the Christian subreddit, they won't take kindly to that either. Instead of joking about the problem, be a solver of the problem, but it would seem not a lot of people in the US are very embracing of helping such ones with problems, this is why I thank God that can speak some experience to children so they do not fall to such a habit that is a very tough cycle to break away from. I also suggest you look up "Pillow" in that subreddit and see the stories of some people and those that actually are solvers of problems who help such ones out, rather than be like the types of individuals to bash and make fun. What next for you? You want to joke about people who are affiliated with Otaku (???) culture as well? Those they they themselves have problems far greater than themselves?
  13. Going after the problem is not a meaningless phrase, for it was, people like Luara Silsby would not have been able to continue what she has been doing, of which she sees as just, but in reality it is unjust. When we "Go after the Problem" we do everything in our power to prevent problems such as this so no one would have to end up like Elizabeth Smart, no one would end up like Berry, DeJesus, and Knight, no one would end up like the recent situation regarding the now deceased Kiera Bergman, Karina Vetrano, Mollie Tibbetts. It does not just stop at the kidnapping, the rape and killings, it goes further beyond that of which is out of our control and such continues to spread like a virus. Better solutions help to make some changes, but if we are going about things the wrong way nothing can be done, and the cycle will continue and trying to prevent something will be lessened. As for the prisoner, such a person should not have been released, knowing the situation she herself was in and what she contributed to by her hands. The other factor is the Justice System is broken, double standard, unfair, sympathetic to someone of sex mainly if such is fancied by the judge, etc. We can throw a man who isn't Caucasian in jail for 20 years for stealing food, a box of cards and or other things from a store, but should the same action be done by someone else, they get less time, for murders done by a rich teenager who got off Scott-free and yet his friends are the one taking up a place in Sheol while the mother of such a child sees him as a saint. Or the fact that we have a swimmer who tried to rape a girl behind a dumpster, only to be caught and nearly avoided jail time because the Judge feels sorry for him, but if it was someone else, he'd be crucified before going to prison. This is why some of us fight for better solutions when it comes to things. I have some things, but I rather not say on here because such has affected several who are close to me, and sitting around and not trying to get the underhand on the problem will not help anyone case, hence why I stated their are better solutions, but some people don't attempt and are try for such and will be too late when a problem and or situation worsens. That being said, we keep the real monsters in cages, we don't let them go out for recess otherwise they will escape to do the same thing that got them locked up to begin with. Monsters who do escape will try to blend in with others only to strike again, even going as far as to seek authority and or some upper position to enact his or her misdeeds.
  14. John, if there is only 144,000 seats to the house party and those seats are for those invited, don't expect to enter and seat at the seat of which you are not suppose to be sitting at for you haven't been invited. That being said, be happy that Eternal Life is a possibility.
  15. @James Thomas Rook Jr. True, but whenever anyone speaks of Russia ROC would be obvious, as of recently, they have been growing and growing in power since they are technically shielded by the Kremlin. But yes, the 777 Crew most likely will be on this because they themselves are not a fan of corruption in Russia, as is others like them. But I mentioned them before. Anyways I am giving it a few days until they and their connections get more information on this story, for they watch everything even JWs in Russia from the Soviet Era home defenders. But it is crazy now because of one's faith now they can be harassed and targeted. These JWs are likely they don't live in Chechnya because if they did, they'll be dealing with this guy, Ramzan Kadyrov and or his people. Remember the story of Enoch when it says "He was no more"? That could happen to any JW if they lived in that area, for such has already been done to some people there against their will, perhaps looking at them the wrong way will win you that one way ticket to the camps.
  16. Going after the real problem, that is the better solution. Such a thing cannot be 100% stopped, that is like saying you can end world hunger and famine at the flick of the wrist. We can only prevent some instances, but we cannot prevent all of them sadly. This is coming from a guy who's people's children were almost subjected to human trafficking by the Americans, although we stopped this one, we cannot say much for the others because stuff like this isn't easy to deal with. The same goes for the human black market and the vampires for project Ambrosia.
  17. @Anna I guess so, makes one easy to deduce, that's like finding out Bruce Wayne is the Batman, minus the shock value, for in this case, we already know who is behind the mask. On another forum, if you have multiple names/accounts, one can be called out by an admin/members or even banned, or given warning. at the other Christian forums I use to be on, someone got blasted by an admin on the entire forum. Mainly when you have some folks who agree with themselves or liking their own comments from the other account.
  18. I've explained the 777 crew to you before, an independent Russian outlet media that has not been stomped out by the State Duma's censoring of the internet and media, the same goes for Free Radio Europe who also operate in Russia, as is a list of others. Those who have not been stamped out get the worse kind of punishment so they can be silenced while Kremlin controlled media hides the truth. This is why whenever something outside the US takes place, best to go to the actual area itself by looking things up in their language. RoC stands for The Russian Orthodox Church and as of recent days now they ramped up. Cyrill should not be underestimated, mainly if you live in Russia, perhaps he will swing a golden cross and his luxurious chain into the face of a Non-Orthodoxy, it didn't stop his followers from kicking people out of their homes by force, although didn't use such items, they had, as they say in slang, "gangsta-type" way of removing someone from their home if not the FSB or the police. I had a video of this somewhere and it is not pretty how they evicted a woman from her home.
  19. She should not be kicked out because some political folk had their undies in a bunch. If the girl refuses to stand or salute to the flag so be it, she should not be attacked for it. One of the reasons I do not take kindly to political figures, they will have my respect and attention, but never me submitting to them. They've done enough damage already, but as they say, man will drive other men into ruin and will only dig their own way to Hades.
  20. @James Thomas Rook Jr. I don't think it would be of concern to them, but they will react as they did in Mexico, Puerto Rico, Texas, Haiti, Japan, etc. it won't be much of a difference with Hurricane Florence since the faith group does relief work to help their own, first, and go for anyone else, as is done before with them, and like before any relief work they do will be flagged and removed and they will be spoken of as the faith group that did nothing - has I made mention of last year. The biggest concern for everyone is that this is a slow moving storm and slow moving means catastrophic damage, as in if their are plant facilities in the area, of which can raise the danger level even higher, and slow moving also increases the chances of little to no survivability with all that water in it's wake. Other than that, natural disasters such as earthquakes even even hurricanes like this are signs and the Bible speaks of such things. But let us not get carried away like others who claim the hurricane, as done before, it God's anger against mankind, the Christians who stated this a while back for Hurricane Irma because the hurricane looks like a skeletal figure's face (The Grim Reaper) are in error, the same goes for those speak of conspiracy in regards to said hurricanes, including this one. Also I'd like to add that $10 million was transferred from FEMA to ICE, I don't have sympathy for both of them for their actions, as well as The Red Cross who made fool's those half my family originates from.
  21. @James Thomas Rook Jr. Well time for me to go to my Russian buddies and possibly see what the 777 crew has to say. But it seems the RoC have already taken the place of JWs n the streets of Moscow and St. Petersburg.
  22. Hopefully while drinking it does not come with getting Bruce Lee'd in the face or IP Man'd across the room.
  23. @Jack Ryan I guess the game is over then because that question posed is complex, and yet extremely easy...
  24. The Jezebel woman spirit that had been expressed by the Spiritual Mother of the UN of old shows strongly in Nikki Haley. People need to be very careful with her and those in her inner circle.
