I have tried to advice someone to get away from Tarot cards and she also gives people messages from angels on the phone. I told her these are not from God and that a Christian should not do these things. She attacked me with such anger even tho I was being loving and gentle when giving advice. Later she asked me to forgive her for her hateful outburst and I did. She never stopped her sin. I just can't be in a same place with her ..she makes me feel sick.

I was in new age and you get so mislead and think what you are doing is good. Just love her and pray for her.. think how great it was that she asked you for forgiveness..
Thsnkyou for the video. Regarding spirits leaving a man and they find no rest, so they go back to their house.....once a person has rid themselves of the spirits how do they ensure tgey have Gods spirit in them....when/ how does this happen? If the person is left empty i imagine this is when the more wicked spirits would inhabit the individual? Is indwelling of Gods spirit something that needs to be earned after achieving deliverance? I hope my question makes sense
Please let me know if anything I've copied and pasted below is incorrect.... John 15-25: Jesus Says: "But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated Me without reason.’ John 15-26: Jesus Says: "When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father- the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father- He will testify about Me."
@@WatchmanWeis Thank you for taking time to respond. I should explain what I'm looking at. For John 15 verse 25, this is extremely important for me. So if we can please skip over 15-25 for just a moment and instead just focus on 15-26. I believe 15-26 is an extremely key step for an unbeliever to understand. Here is what I see with the two King James versions.... (King James) "But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:" (New King James) “But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me. Notice that the word "Me" is capitalized in the new but not in the original. Notice that originally, the Holy Spirit is the Comforter and then it changes to Helper. Now when I look at the Greek New Testament, from the original New Testament manuscripts I also found emphasis regarding The Lord Jesus' significance in the way it says "throughout" Jesus. In the Greek, I also see that "Advocate" is used instead of Helper or Comforter. (I am using below the original Greek in the modern Berean translation, shown here just below in combination with the Nestle 1904 translation shown next). Ὅταν ἔλθῃ ὁ Παράκλητος ὃν ἐγὼ πέμψω ὑμῖν παρὰ τοῦ Πατρός, τὸ Πνεῦμα τῆς ἀληθείας ὃ παρὰ τοῦ Πατρὸς ἐκπορεύεται, ἐκεῖνος μαρτυρήσει περὶ ἐμοῦ· Ὅταν ἔλθῃ ὁ Παράκλητος ὃν ἐγὼ πέμψω ὑμῖν παρὰ τοῦ Πατρός, τὸ Πνεῦμα τῆς ἀληθείας ὃ παρὰ τοῦ Πατρὸς ἐκπορεύεται, ἐκεῖνος μαρτυρήσει περὶ ἐμοῦ· If we are supposed to explain this complex verse to others, then shouldn't we use a translation which makes most sense to others? Indeed, The Holy Spirit is both Comforter and Helper, but for this verse, isn't it more appropriate Advocate because in modern times it will be associated by people as the Advisor. The Holy Spirit advises us on all details. It seems to make more sense to me to use a translation which people will understand. Can you tell me why you believe Comforter is the more correct translation? Most Greek versions I found use also the phrase, "the Spirit of truth" in the passage at the middle part. Truth would also fall under advocacy more than helping or comforting. In Matthew 7 it says all help will come from God. In Malachi 3 it says comfort will come from The Lord Jesus Christ. Can you please help me understand how best you think this passage should be explained to others? Without doing what Jesus tells us in this passage, the rest of scripture will be difficult for unbelievers to interpret. An unbeliever must understand the instructions given by Jesus to be able to learn from The Teacher, Who is God (Matthew 23-8), and The Holy Spirit of God.
@@Tom-and-Jerry-again The KJV "is" the Word of God with the English words perfectly translated by the work of Holy Spirit. It's proven to be so. Thank you. The answer to your question is this: The Comforter (Holy Spirit; which is God). Once a person is saved He indwells us and teaches us from within (Holy Spirit) and from without (The Word). They will come together in perfect unity. As we compare spiritual (Holy Spirit) with spiritual (The Word), we come to the lip of truth (Prov. 12:19) and are able to understand it. 1 Cor. 2:14.
@@WatchmanWeis Right, I completely agree with you that The Holy Spirit of God will help a person to understand The Word of God. But Jesus is instructing people in that verse who do not currently harbor The Holy Spirit of God within their hearts, minds and souls. It is the same today. Most people do not currently harbor The Holy Spirit of God within their hearts, minds and souls. John 15-26 are the instructions on how that process takes place in the most top level sense of the activity. Obviously, repentance and often many things must change in a person's mind and heart - it is not exactly just that verse only but all the instructions from The Lord Jesus Christ which are important. When The Lord Jesus Christ was asked difficult questions and when those asking used passages from The Torah in their questioning, Jesus used passages from earlier places in The Torah to answer them, often showing them how they were misguided. Today, in these modern days, we too discover the truth by using first The Holy Spirit of God, and if that does not work (person has not harbored), then that is not such an insurmountable issue - we have the exact Words of The Lord Jesus Christ and can read them as the Authority to discern other passages in The New Testament and even also in The Torah. You must admit The Torah has many places which will be confusing to unbelievers. Who needs to understand? Is the point of a preacher to include all those listening, unbelievers and believers both? Or is the point of a preacher to use words which have become mostly obsolete, knowing that the believers will use The Holy Spirit of God to understand? And by doing so, confuse and turn away the unbelievers with incorrect interpretations? Is this the way Jesus asked the disciples to introduce The Good News of repentance and Salvation in Christ? When I read those passages, it appears to me that Jesus said to explain things so they will hear but not understand for those that are not ready to understand - but not that it should be so difficult that nobody but the believers will understand. The Lord Jesus Christ said to us that He arrived for the sinners, that He is concerned about the sinners.
@@WatchmanWeis There will be millions of people listening who only speak english as a second language and many who will be new to The Word of God. Thank you for taking them into account. 2 Peter 3-9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
You mentioned death but did not define it. What about the "second death?" It is mentioned in The Bible. What about 2 Peter 3-8/9? What about the original translations of the word "hell?" How can you talk about death and judgement without defining what you mean? Are you talking about the body dying? Are you talking about God's Final Judgement? How many different "judgements" are there for a human soul? Is Jesus involved in all this or is it only up to God or only up to us with God? Did you think preaching on a global platform to the world was going to be simple and easy? I'm anxiously waiting for more videos, because you have entered into the world of sinners and billions of "yet to be believers." Subscribed.
This is not intended to be an answer to your question and is only an introduction to the topic to help expand the discussion. My understanding is that we are created in the image of God. My belief is we are powerful beings because of this. So if we allow something to control us, I wonder then if by doing that, we then transfer much power to it, which might be dangerous for us of for others? I often like to ask myself regarding all things of this world, "Does it control me, or do I control it?" I believe we should only allow God to have control over us, and we are best to control everything else, always with and alongside Guidance from God.
