Oops sorry meant to say names are NOT mentioned in parables.
Disciples were astonished and said how can the rich be saved and Jesus replied with God all things are possible.
People in heaven will see their loved ones suffering in hell but being like angels they will not have regrets and also...
1. In this case, it is not mentioned that it is a parable. Person names are included in parables.
2. Being rich need not be a ticket to hell. Matthew 19:23-26
3. In heaven they are like angels of heaven. They neither marry or given in marriage. No relationships.
GIFT of tongues must accompany the GIFT of interpretation
1 Corinthians 14: 27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to...
New to the forum after several years and some observations for what it is worth. I think this forum is for discussions and learning. There are Christian snowflakes throwing around names like judgmental, Pharisee, etc. If you don't agree you don't have to be disgusted or bitter, just move on.

Jude 1:3 - 'Beloved, while I was making every effort to write you about our

earnestly for the faith which was once for all handed down to the saints.
For certain persons have crept in unnoticed...
Romans 5:5 (NIRV) God has poured his love into our hearts. He did it through the Holy Spirit, whom he has given to us.
God's love is the answer to all love questions -- to feel, to give, to receive, etc. Being filled with the Holy Spirit through prayer will set our hearts straight!
Praise Jesus, who is the alpha and the omega, the first and the last, counselor, mighty God, prince of peace, everlasting Father, ....Hallelujah!:clap::clap::clap:
If we love a person, we would be glad to hear what that person has to say. Similarly, if we love God, we would love to hear what He says in His Word. As mentioned before, we cannot keep the 2 great commandments without the love of God within us: it is impossible with natural human love to keep...
(NIV) Psalms 17:
14 By your hand save me from such people, LORD,
from those of this world whose reward is in this life.
May what you have stored up for the wicked fill their bellies;
may their children gorge themselves on it,
may there be leftovers for their little ones.
15 As for me, I...
Sounds like the thought is not complete...
Romans 5:5 .....because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
Through the iterative process of infilling of the Holy Spirit and removing all other strange loves our hearts can be completely filled...
Or better yet join the worship group and begin to worship God despite rejections, miscommunications, unintentional oversights and other human flaws...just a thought
;-) Jesus loves you.
Assuming your conscience is clear towards God...He has given you the understanding that yielding to temptation is sin..and you do not want to sin...Just go to Him just as you are...tell Him that you're finding it difficult to overcome and you need His grace and strength to say no...(For without...
How do I love God with with all my heart, soul, and mind?
