AMEN & AMEN! I tried to please GOD for 20yrs. giving out tracts & sharing. I finally asked HIM to prune me and a few weeks later the painful trials started with my husband losing his job. I felt a "glory" that GOD.was working in me as HE gave me an inner knowing and rest within. HE even took away every fear and would comfort me with words like: "I am your Dwelling, I am your Fulfiller, I am your Security and many more!" I had to work & self-pity filled me one day as I felt like a prisoner. HE immediately said, "can't I put MY people in prison?" GOD has given me that "joy unspeakable & peace that passes all understanding". Since then I have never had any fears for over 40 years because I know where I am. (Col.3:3; 1John 4:18) 💞💥

I have a story about grammar-about ‘that’. I too noticed that Paul was always saying “this happened so that…”, “this happened so that…” He was connecting the events in his life (suffering-but not only suffering) by wisdom from God with God’s hidden purposes. I prayed about it and as a job was sort of ‘drying up’ I encountered a teaching the following day that talked about the brook drying up in Elijah’s time and the way in which God redirects (not just supernaturally but naturally). My work was (in one place) was drying up. But _this happened so that_ by natural means, I would be redirected to my next assignment. God had given me the wisdom I had prayed for. Now, like Paul I could say, “this happened so that.” He gives wisdom to all without finding fault-God of grammar…

Leviticus 3: 12-17 of Leviticus 3:1-17(Laws for peace offerings) Leviticus 3:12-17 "12 " If his offering(😊❤) is a goat, then he shall offer(😊❤) before the LORD(😊❤). 13 and lay his hand on its head and kill it in front of the tent of meeting, and the sons of Aaron(😊❤) shall throw its blood against the sides of the altar. 14 Then he shall offer from it, as his offering for a food offering to the LORD(😊❤), the fat covering the entrails and all the fat that is on the entrails 15 and the two kidneys with the fat that is on them at the loins and the long lobe of the liver that he shall remove with the kidneys. 16 And the priests(😊❤) burn them on the altar as a food offering with a pleasing aroma. All fat is the LORD( the Lord God😊❤)'s . 17 It shall be a statue forever throughout your generations(😊❤'s) , in all your dwelling places, that you eat neither fat nor blood."( Leviticus 3:12-17 ESV Study Bible) It's it healther to eat less fat in animals' fat and also it's also good filter the meats of blood before eating the meats too. I think one the reasons many of God's people or us too in Christ do not eat blood when we are believers in Christ At to me in Christ, since trust God (😊100%❤) by faith ( trust) in Jesus(😊1st❤) day on and i do not food with plainly blood. Although sometimes when we cook beef we might it medium rare for others' prefer to me i like almost well done in Christ. I understand it might tastes better when a good piece of beef meat are not wasted when it is over cooked. I prefer no blood due my own belief in Christ and sometimes others told me overcooked a good piece of beef might ruin the meat. Well just do not overcook it during cooking process and just cook it with love and cook it right for everyone's taste bud in Christ. To me, i also do not eat blood plainly and i see others do but i prefer prefer eat meat just rightly cooked in Christ. Sometimes during colder weather, we tense eat more and some healthy fat in meats also help us to keep us warm from the cold and just remember to eat right and eat balance meal in Christ with exercises too in different forms and lately i also walk and do bicycling and taking subways and praying for every person i see on the train and tell others to work hard in Christ. I trust God knows i intentional since i trust in Jesus😊1st❤ , i already stopped eating blood pudding . I have seen other eat pig blood pudding which others like but i prefer due my belief in Christ not for me to eat. Everything is possible for us( me too) but not everything is beneficial to us. I trust God when he said do not eat raw blood for good reason for us in the Bible or at cooked it well before eating. I just prefer eat balancely Christ. I remember i saw others use blood of animals to make food and to me personally i prefer not to eat them. Even when it fully cooked if it's blood alone. I also love my family of God and family in Christ Jesus😊1st❤ too. While i was thinking how God tells us not to eat raw animal blood for healthy reasons in Christ. For example to me is pig blood pudding other cooked them and eat it which i respect them eat it but i prefer not to eat them myself due my belief in Christ from the Bible. From this, by God's grace in Christ. It leads to 1 Corinthians 8:13😊❤ and 1 Corinthians 8:12-13😊❤. Just like 1 Corinthians 8:12-13😊❤ said, "12 Thus, sinning against your brothers and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ(Jesus😊1st❤ our Lord and our savior too in Christ), 13 Therefore(😊❤), if food make my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble. "( 1 Corinthians 8: 12-13 ESV Study Bible) This is reason i do not eat food offer to idols. No idols and no mocking of our God of the Bible. Maybe that's lately i eat less and less meats and sometimes also eat meats but more healther vegetables more and also eat some meats for proteins in Christ too. Since some people i know personally who doesn't to eat a lot meat, so i yield to their diet and cook what they prefer to eat mostly in Christ and told me to cook mostly. It help me too by God's grace in Christ. Ephesians 2:8 ( God😊100%❤'s grace😊❤) in Christ. The not eating ( raw)blood or cooked blood plainly part from Ot😊❤ in Christ lead me to 1 Corithians 8:13😊❤ "13 Therefore(😊❤), if food make my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble. "( 1 Corinthians 8: 13 ESV Study Bible) I thank God for those of us who are many faithful God's servants( 😊❤'s) who work hard (😊❤) daily for God's people😊❤. Thank God for your faithful😊❤ services ( 😊❤'s) to God(😊100%❤ our Father in heaven) and to Jesus(😊1st❤ our Lord and our savior too in Christ) and may God's good Holy Spirit(😊❤) guide us all to do good😊❤ in Christ and faithfully to God (😊100%❤) like many God's faithful servants(😊❤'s) are doing now for our country😊❤ and to God's people😊❤ too in Christ. I thank God(😊100%❤) for you(😊❤'s) too in Christ(😊1st❤).

Is this considered pain. My life has already been hell, now after reading the Bible he's almost adequate me bed ridden

[@Shawn-q3x]

I and my Father are one” does not make Jesus “God” (John 10:30): The Father shares His glory with Jesus. In John 17:22, Jesus said “and the glory which you have given to me, I have given to them; that *_THEY may be ONE, even as WE are ONE.”_* All of God’s children must be able to say “I and my Father are one;” if not, then we do not belong to God the Father. When they have seen us, they have seen the Father-His spirit, power, and glory radiates within us (John 14:9). As God has said, “I will live in them, and walk in them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people” (2 Corinthians 6:16). Jesus is not God, and neither are we.

This is salvific in nature. "Before Abraham was, I AM". "The word was with God and the word was God". If you do not believe Jesus is God, you do not believe his words. And if you do not believe his words, you do not have salvation. Think about it, you probably spend the majority of your time making this argument. I know this isn't the only video you put this on. Either you have sight, or you are blind. Why does it matter to you that others believe Christ? This you have is not understanding the nature of God and the trinity. Stop trying to tell everyone they are wrong, examine your heart and read the Bible.

We aren't God, but Jesus is the Word made flesh. The Word was with God and the Word WAS God.

[@Shawn-q3x]

@ It is you and many in the world who call Jesus "Lord, Lord" that needs to "examine their heart." This has nothing to do with your heart---it has everything to do with comprehending the word of God by way of the _Holy Spirit,_ not what your heart "thinks" the word says. This is why it is written, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" (Jeremiah 17:9). You hear sweet nothings from MAN and believe you know the truth instead of listening and asking for revelation from the Holy Spirit. That is the problem with the world today. You say if you do not believe his words, then you do not have salvation? That is true---believe the words of Jesus because they come FROM the Father (John 12:48-50). When Jesus says his Father is his God---believe it (John 20:17). When it reads that there is only ONE GOD, the Father---believe it (1 Corinthians 8:6). You ask why it matters to me that others believe in Christ, when we are told to warn those while it is called today? If you knew that most of the world believes in a lie that will send them to hell, why would you not obey your Father and tell them the truth? I know I have salvation, but the world will continue to call Jesus "Lord, Lord" as if he is God---and he will say on behalf of the Father "I never knew you, depart from me" (Matt 7:21-23). Repent.

As I said then, We aren't God, but Jesus is the Word made flesh. The Word was with God and the Word WAS God.
