Out of all the books in the Bible I have read, the book of Revelation has probably been the hardest for me to understand.

I have bought books talking about the meaning of its Scriptures, like books from Jack Van Impe (he is dead now), but still, the exact meaning of the Book of Revelation escapes me.

What do you guys say?

This was a prayer of King David, but I do not know if he was king at this time or not. David was a man of God who followed the Lord in obedience to his commands, as his life practice. He was not a perfect man, and there was a time in his life when he sinned against God and other humans grievously, but God used Nathan, the prophet, to point David to his sin, which then brought him to genuine biblical repentance. And I do not know if this Psalm was written before or after David’s moral failure, but God did forgive him.

Here David states that he himself was a godly man, so this was not the time in which he sinned grievously against the Lord. This was a time when his life was committed to obeying the Lord and to doing his will and to walking in his truth and righteousness. His heart and mind were surrendered to the Lord to do as he commanded. But it was also a time of trouble and distress, for he had enemies who sought to take his life, who did not honor God. But he had confidence that God would hear his prayer, and would answer him.

Now, perhaps some of us can relate to what David spoke of here and to some of David’s history. I know that I can. I also had a time of moral failure, but God brought me back around, and he forgave me, and not too long afterwards (4 years) he called me to writing down what he teaches me each day from his word and to post these writings on the internet. I can identify a lot with David’s heart and with his love for the Lord and with his desire to serve the Lord with his life, and with having people come against him, too.

But we read in the New Testament that if we follow Jesus Christ with our lives that we will be hated as he was, and that we will be opposed, mistreated, slandered, thought ill of, and persecuted for the sake of the name of Jesus, and for the sake of righteousness. We will have enemies if we are serious about our walks of faith in obedience to our Lord, and especially if we are verbal about our faith and the true message of the gospel of Christ which teaches us to die to sin and to obey God’s commands.

And when David wrote that God is good, and that he is ready to forgive, and he is abundant in lovingkindness to all who call upon him, he was not speaking of giving lip service only to the Lord or just asking God for favors. For all who call upon the Lord must call upon him in truth with a sincere desire to have a change of heart and mind resulting in a change of behavior, i.e. to truly repent of their sins. We must want to have our sins put to death so that we can now live for the Lord in walks of obedience to his commands.

He had a very bad case of it, insomuch that it practically swallowed up his entire life. He became so fearful and paranoid that he was calling my dad (his brother) on the phone every single day all the time wanting to talk to him. I think talking to my dad comforted him from his fears and paranoia, kind of like when a child hears his parents' soothing voice.

My uncle genuinely believed that everyone was out to get him and he was constantly looking out the windows of his house to make sure no one followed him home. It breaks my heart that he was living in such a bad state of paranoia!

But here is where it freaked me out: Sometimes he would call our landline phone (this was back in the 2000s or 2010s when landlines were still around and starting to go away) and leave us messages where he was almost yelling in fear begging for my dad to talk to him. It was like he actually thought it was an emergency or something.

I actually became afraid of my uncle after hearing those messages he left: I was only a teenager at this time and I thought he was completely psycho! I never wanted to talk to him. I was too freaked out.

Sometimes when he was talking to my dad he would calm down enough for them to talk about the latest football game. Both of them were into football.

My uncle is dead now. He died years ago, but I do remember that he was living a nightmare with his bad schizophrenia, and I truly hope he was born-again (I don't know), because I do feel like Jesus could have helped him live a better life. I just feel sad that his life was completely destroyed from this disorder.

I want everyone to have good lives. Sadly, that doesn't always happen.

RIP uncle Edmond.

Please, I just want the ladies only to answer this question, if they want to.

What are your hobbies ladies, if you have any?

I have a number of creative hobbies and crafts that I do in my spare time, but the list is so long that it would take me awhile to type it all up! So being that I am too lazy to do that, I will just say this: I am trying do something called Diamond Painting. I heard its popular, but being that I'm new to it I am having trouble doing it! Has any lady on here ever done Diamond Painting before? Can give me some tips?

A post from an X account explaining that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) celebrates Eve’s decision to eat from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil has gone viral, with 1.9 million views as of this writing. The post has drawn strong criticism from some Christians, who say it represents Satan’s point of view.

“In the LDS Church, we do not see Eve eating the forbidden fruit as a mistake or even a sin,” said a Jan. 27 post from the account Dem Saints. “To the contrary, we celebrate her courage and wisdom to partake of the fruit, transgress the bounds of Eden and become all that her Heavenly Father wanted her to be.”

After the post went viral, the account posted on Jan. 29, “I created a simple one-tweet summary of last week’s Sunday School lesson and just Eve-pilled more than a million people. Sometimes Twitter is pretty cool.”

‘We Celebrate Her Courage’—LDS Post Praising Eve’s Choice To Eat Forbidden Fruit Goes Viral

Mark Eleven:
22 So Jesus answered and said to them, Have faith in God.
23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain,
‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart,
but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.
24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray,
believe that you receive them, and you will have them.
25 And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone,
forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.
26 But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.

Here is Jn 11 35 :

35 Jesus wept.

i guess Jesus is weeping over Adam and men's fall, but not sure.
What do you think, please ?

This is from my sisters' minister. He used to call himself a prophet. Anyway it goes for a bit over 2 minutes.

He says that God's voice is "quiet, calm, still, and small" based on 1 Kings 19:12:

"After the earthquake a fire came. But the Lord wasn’t in the fire. And after the fire there was only a gentle whisper."

What do you think? Could the voice of God that you hear sometimes not be "quiet, calm, still, or small"?

Apologies in advance if any of this info is repetitive. My wife's younger sister is oblivious to the fact that she's entrenched herself in an abusive relationship (verbally and emotionally we know for sure, unsure if it's abusive in any other ways). She's been with this guy maybe three years and has an 18-month-old daughter with him. She's nominally Catholic, only going through the religious motions because of how hard my wife is trying to bring her back into the Church. My wife and her parents are trying to get her to see how messed up this relationship is. He's 11 years her junior (23-24, so he's immature but also just not smart in any conceivable way). They were living together in Los Angeles when he decided he was going to move back to Arizona and finish getting his commercial pilots license. He wanted to move her and their daughter up here where we live ~500 miles north of LA. He rented them a one bedroom apartment about a mile away from us so she has our support in a lot of ways, she's completely dependent on him financially. He pays the rent, the bills, food, etc. But he weaponizes that responsibility by threatening to withhold if she does something he disapproves of (like finding a job of her own).

For a long time my wife and I were trying to encourage them to get married for their daughter's sake and in hopes that he would convert to Catholicism and my SIL would revert/convert as well. But as times gone by things have just deteriorated instead. We're suspicious his motives behind this current arrangement (I'm cynical so I assume he "sent her away" and moved to Phoenix so he could philander) cause as far as we can tell he hasn't re-entered flight school.

She's taken a gig nannying for a family who just moved to town and joined our parish. The upside is the mom is very disciplined, especially with the faith. For example, she gave my SIL a list of prayers she wants her to pray with the kids whenever she's watching them. These are things my SIL wasn't even aware of, that's how poorly she's formed in the faith (really not at all).

Anyway, I dunno what the point of me putting this whole story out there is other than context for the prayers I'm asking for. I mean, obviously God's will be done. IMO I think she's given the relationship a fair shot and it's just getting more toxic, to the point where it could start harming their daughter. I think she needs to be freed from it, then maybe she'll have the space in her life to really discover the faith and meet someone based on the morals and values that come from the faith rather than her own backwards secular values. Which I would think would be best for both of them.

If you guys have any thoughts or advice as well, I welcome it.

Thanks all.

Hello, my name is Thomas!. I've been a active seeker in god for over 14 years now. I am glad to be here. I have posted my testimony in the testimony section for those who are interested in it. My journey is a bit personal. I am diagnosed with schizoefffective disorder, which intertwines into my faith. I believe in Jesus christ, who came to earth 2000 years ago, to free us from sin. I see us as our Redeemer, because Adam and Eve sold humanity into slavery of sin for the knowledge of good and evil. And jesus had to be our kinsman redeemer by taking human flesh and blood and paying the price (death) to free us and redeem us from the price of the apple's price!
you can find my testimony here.

7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.

Let me set the Story. 14 years ago, I'm in my early 20's. 21/22 yrs old. (My birthday is today! Jan. 16th 36 years old) At that time, I have a "general" belief in Jesus and God, but not deep enough to search him or read the bible. Just a empty faith. My babysitter when I was a toddler, took me to church. I attended Awana's as a pre-teen/young boy. And in high school I attended a church with a girl, because I had a crush on her and her parents invited me to start going to church with them. Those parents even set up a "fellowship group", that got us high schoolers together at hangout spot. It had good Christian intentions, and at times there was Christian messages at the group, but it was mostly a hangout spot for kids supervised by parents. Then after high school, I attended an Apostolic Church for a year with my dad. So I was predisposed to the Lord, but I was young and my heart wasn't committed/fully invested. I believed, but I lacked "Depth".

In the college school year of 2011-2012 I start dating a Girl named Rachel. While dating, I have a vision. This vision I forget about until about 6-8 months later when I have my 2nd experience that unlocks the memory of this vision. So its like a flashback memory. But the memory came to me so vividly, that I remember details about this vision, as if I lived it and actually experienced it.

So the first experience/vision.....I visited my father one weekend from college. While staying at his house overnight, I get up to use the bathroom. When i finish and pass my dad in the living room. (He slept on the couch), he was awake and told me to sit next to him. He then explained to me he wasn't my father, but he was really Gabriel. He placed his hand on my forehead. Immediately air rushed into my lungs and i sneezed with my mouth. At the same time, I felt the sensation of warm water being poured over me. I was then pulled out of my body into a separate "realm" that was above. This realm was pure black. Out of the blackness a Silvery/Blue face appears, and says "Thomas, I swear by my great name you are mine". He then asks me several times what I want, and I keep changing my answer. First it was to "live lives", then it was "for my mothers healing", then it was "just to be happy", then it was "to get out of the military", then finally I answered "I wanted to marry Rachel". I was sent off to bed, and as I laid in bed I heard a voice say to me, "My dad was going to die".....so I pleaded with the voice and said "Give my dad, mercy" (meaning his soul). [side note, 14 years later. he is still alive (but his life collapsed around him and changed majorly and he is doing really good now)] I fell asleep and forgot about this vision until my 2nd experience happened. I place this vision happening just before the Holiday Season 2011. I interpret this as a baptism of water and spirit.

3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? 5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Fast forward to Summer break. Rachel and I had broken up at the end of the school year, and i wasn't dealing with my emotions properly. I buried them, refusing to think about the pain and heartbreak. I started a job as a flagger for the oil and gas industry and we had plenty of downtime. Enough downtime where I had hours and hours to just sit and think. During this time my thoughts began to wander towards God, and missing not having a girlfriend. So I decide to pick up the Bible and read it at work. I read the Bible from cover to cover in 3 months for the first time on my own. During the timeframe I was power-reading the bible for the first time. I was sitting with a group of friends hanging out one day. When all of a sudden, i have the thought that God himself is going to smite me dead on the spot. This feelings of utter terror washes over me, and I am paralyzed with fear. The only thing I can do, is start crying loudly in front of everybody (seemingly random to everybody) and start praying in Glossolalia. (something I learned to do by only hearing my Dad do it once, Apostolics do it). While crying and praying in tongues in front of my friends, I felt the feeling and emotion of terror wash away from me, to be replaced with the feeling of Peace and Comfort and Reassurance. As I felt this way, my mind took control of itself. Thoughts were planted into my brain forcefully, and at the same time I heard a voice accompany them. This voice wasn't a whisper. It was loud and audible to me. The thoughts and the voice said "Thomas, You are the lonely sparrow, but I have given you wings, oh what mighty wings they are, spread them and fly." The feeling and voice disappeared and my mind relaxed, and I was left with my friends staring at me wondering what just happened.

Today, I equate this experience with Solomon's verse "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom". …9Instruct a wise man, and he will be wiser still; teach a righteous man, and he will increase his learning. 10The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. 11For through wisdom your days will be multiplied, and years will be added to your life.…

About another 4-5 months after the "Fear of the Lord Experience". I am reskimming the New Testament. I come across this verse where Jesus commands the Rich man to give away all his possessions and follow him. I took this seriously. Seriously enough to get a hold of a local church and give all my possessions away. ALL MY CLOTHES. I gave away all my electronics. EVERYTHING, but my vehicle, which was owned by my dad. I even called my boss and quit my easy flagging job. I literally owned nothing but my Dad's vehicle, my bed, my pillow, my blanket, the clothes on my back, and the socks and shoes on my feet. I still had a little bit of money in my bank account, not much. Less than a few hundred dollars, but if I had thought about it at the time, I probably would've emptied my bank account too, but that thought didn't cross my mind. At the time, I believed I was taking a leap of faith that God would provide for me. …

20“All these I have kept,” said the young man. “What do I still lack?” 21 Jesus told him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.” 22When the young man heard this, he went away in sorrow, because he had great wealth.…

My Dad catching wind of this, takes me to the hospital. I am diagnosed with Schizoaffective-Bipolar Type 2. Schizophrenia runs on my mothers side of the family. My grandmother had it, and my mother had it so bad, my parents were forced to divorce when i was age 3 for my safety concerns as a child. I interpret this moment of my life as "denying myself, and taking up my cross (schizophrenia).

24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life[a] will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?

I feel as if I "lost my life" for his sake, when the oath was given to me "I swear by my great name you are mine". Because in the following year that followed that oath, i lost my position at ROTC in college, lost my girlfriend, dropped out of college, kicked out of the National Guard, lost my ambition and then I gave away everything i had to a church, and diagnosed with a mental illness that ran in the family. I effectively "lost" my current life. Now it has been around 14 years since those 3 experiences. A major reason why I chose to seek god during my time as a flagger, was to address my loneliness and the emptiness I felt over the breakup with Rachel. While dating Rachel, instead of the pet names "baby" or "sweetheart". I choose the name "Sunshine" to call Rachel. And I used that name pretty much exclusively, and for her only. Even years later, when I dated other girls. I always reserved that name for her. Even though the emptiness and pain didn't completely go away after we broke up, I attempted to move on and date other girls. But as time and the years passed, i kept finding that I still loved Rachel. And over these past 14 years, I have never stopped wrestling with Theology and my internal Thoughts and feelings to seek and find God. I settled into this "wrestling mindset" and even saw myself as a Biblical Jacob Archetype (once I realized the love for Rachel would never go away), wrestling with God.

Why did Christ give us some as apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers? It wasn’t so they would do all the work of the ministry, so that they would be regarded as “THE ministers,” and so they would be the ones doing all the preaching (prophesying). He gave them to us so that they would train us for the work of the ministry, but not with worldly means and methods and marketing schemes, but via the Word of God and what God instructs his church, the body of Christ, that we should all be doing.

“The Church” not only is not a building, and not a place you go to and then you leave until you go to it again, but it is not a place where the bulk of the body of believers in Christ sit as spectators while a handful of “professionals” do all the “ministering.” It should not be like going to a theatre. For the biblical church is the universal body of believers in Jesus Christ, and all of us are necessary to the proper working of the body, as EACH PART does its work. And our gatherings are to be participatory, not stage productions.

All of us who are of genuine biblical faith in Jesus Christ, who have died with him to sin and who have been reborn of God to walk (in conduct) in obeying him and his commands, have been given spiritual gifts of the Spirit of God, and we have been assigned our body parts by God, and we each have a part in the proper working of the body of Christ. And we are to be speaking the truth of God’s word to one another, in love, for the spiritual growth of the whole body of Christ, which happens when EACH PART is working PROPERLY!

We speak the truth of God’s word to one another so that those who believe in Jesus will no longer be influenced and led astray by some humans who in their cunning, craftiness, and deceitful scheming teach false doctrines and altered gospel messages which do not teach the truth. We speak truth so no believer will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin, too. And we are to stir one another up to love and good deeds. As well, we are to be helping fallen brothers and sisters in Christ back to biblical relationships with our Lord.

The Church Working Properly
An Original Work / January 30, 2026

Im 20 years old and recently I bought myself my first car. Its a small 1992 pickup truck. Low milege, 16km on the odo, and its in pretty good shape! I was overjoyed! My parents gave me a no-interest loan to help pay for it, which was greatly appreciated, as I didnt want to have to deal with financing through a dealership/bank loan. I got the truck and it was losing power, turns out it had a clogged fuel filter and then shortly after the battery died. Two pretty cheap and easy fixes I was able to do myself. Its been running perfect since. (last three weeks). Anyhow, I was praying, thanking God for His providence of the truck (parents helping, good condition, cheap fixes) and I got this DEEP wordless sense in my gut that said something akin to "That wasnt me/my providence" and now im confused. Ive BEEN confused, for three weeks. I dont even know how to explain it, it was this "knowing" of what was being said, there were no words attached. Was this God? Im honestly lost and I am unable to ask a christian elder irl right now.

I can sense God is near, and has been near me through the problems. That is the problem he has stood by and, at the very least, let the problems happen. I honestly think ALL counseling does is try to make you feel better. It does nothing to actually help. I can feel His presence, but it is in no way any kind of help. Comforting is 100% not help. I don't want to feel better about going through something. I want the situation to actually improve. I prayed and begged for Him to provide actual help, and He chose absolutely useless comforting instead. So why should I desire his presence, since it does nothing to change the situation?

When we moved down here to Alabama, we had no idea what the new climate would be like. As it turned out we can't plant in the summer time because its so hot no plants will grow. This surprised us.

Its zones 9a and 9b where we are at.

So we planted in the winter instead and our plants have been growing just fine! Go figure. We have actually received a bumper crop this past winter and have eaten nearly everything we have grown. I guess we have learned that being in a climate that gets as hot and humid as ours does, we have to always plant in the winter to avoid the really harsh heats that will kill all of our plants.

I mean, this has never happened to us anywhere we have lived. Its like we have to garden in reverse just to get anything. Does gardening in the winter sound strange to you? Because it does to me.

Canadian born actress and screenwriter Catherine O'Hara has died at her home in Los Angeles, following a brief illness, according to her agent and manager. She was 71 years old and was known for absurdist comedy. She enjoyed a six-decade career in TV and film playing sometimes over-the-top, but endearing characters.

In one of her most memorable roles, O'Hara played the freaked-out mom of rascally son Kevin (Macaulay Culkin) in two Home Alone movies. Later, she portrayed the self-centered, whiny matriarch in the riches-to-rags TV sitcom Schitt's Creek — a role for which she earned an Emmy and a Golden Globe Award in 2020.

A pedestrian was injured after being hit by a vehicle outside of Fremont High School during a student-led demonstration, officials said.

At one point, a few students entered the street, officials said. A student was hit by a car that stopped in front of the crowd, then began moving.

[As some of the footage shows, the driver had gotten out of the car, gets back in, and then accelerates straight forward, hitting the girl hard enough to knock her up and off her feet.]

Nebraska Rep. Mike Flood released a statement after the incident.

"This is not what we do in Nebraska - this is not ok. The video of the girl being hit by a car at the school protest is disturbing. While initial reports say that the girl was alert and talking when she was taken away, we are praying for her and her well-being. The incident needs to be fully investigated by law enforcement. It is critical that our country preserve the ability of people to safely protest," Flood said.

Members of the organizing group [Faith in Action] sat on the floor of the Hart Senate Office Building and carried banners that read "Do Justice, Love kindness, Abolish ICE."

A U.S. Capitol Police spokesperson said "it is against the law" to demonstrate inside congressional buildings and that 54 demonstrators were arrested.

Richard Mitchell Jr., 62, of Hanover, and Sara Tresnak, 51, of York, have both been charged with ethnic intimidation following the fight, which happened Jan. 10 at the Hanover Eagles on 105 Park Street in Penn Township.

The victim reported that the couple had asked where she was from, and she answered Baltimore.

They then asked what her ethnicity is, and she said her dad is Black and Puerto Rican, and her mom is Italian, according to police.

How can you truly know the person you’re planning to marry? Can you actually have peace going into the marriage? In the most recent episode of their podcast, Jinger Duggar Vuolo and her husband, Jeremy, discussed how they navigated their fears on this topic prior to marrying each other.

“I was so afraid of not knowing who that person was going to be deep down. I always had this lingering fear of like, ‘Oh no, if I enter a relationship with someone and if I’m married to them, how will I ever truly know who they are?’” Jinger said. “I think a lot of that stemmed from fear of what I had been through, you know, even just seeing people make choices that were really painful and hard and not knowing exactly who that person was. It was scary for me.”

The video shows Oz being driven around a section of Van Nuys where he says that about $3.5 billion worth of medicare fraud has been perpetrated by hospice and home care businesses, claiming that “it’s run, quite a bit of it, by the Russian Armenian mafia.”

At one point in the video, which was posted Tuesday on the agency’s official social media accounts, Oz stands in front of a sign for an Armenian bakery and says, “you notice that the lettering and language behind me is of that dialect and it also highlights the fact that this is an organized crime mafia deal.”



In a letter to the Department of Health and Human Services, Newsom called on the agency to investigate “Dr. Oz’s baseless and racist allegations against Armenian Americans in California.”

Movses Bislamyan, the owner of the store whose sign is pictured in the video, told ABC7 News that he saw about a 30% drop in business the day after the viral video was posted.

“I am really disappointed,” he told the station. “Recording my signs, my location, and talking about some kind of fraud going on here. We have nothing to do with it.”

Hey, but your sign has weird looking letters on it. Turkish Americans going after Armenian Americans. Such great optics! And really, what is this celebrity video supposed to do? As Oz himself says "CMS and law enforcement will keep doing the actual work: going after fraudsters, period.” Well, let them get on with it, then. Have they done as much as the state of California?

Since 2021 the state Department of Justice has charged 109 people with hospice-related fraud and filed 24 civil suits related to hospice fraud. In the last two years, 280 hospices have been shuttered with their licenses revoked, according to data from the California Department of Public Health, which oversees licensing.
