Hey folks. So, I planted a seed in my aunt Sue; I witnessed to her. She didn't accept it. I tried using Ezekiel's Tyre prophecy and Daniel 9 and Jesus to prove the Bible, and I have my personal testimony. She just saw it as me just trying to find peace. She has been blinded. Pray to snatch her out of Satan's grip.
I know what family rejection and rift feels like. Praying for your Aunt Sue, that others will come along and water the work that you have done and that God will soften her hard heart. Blessings, Beloved.

Praying. I'm glad you were able to talk to her. Sometimes it takes many talks before somebody is ready. I've been witnessing to my coworker Christ for 2 years. He seems nearly ready, but is stubborn and won't make the plunge at this time.
I John 2:28 And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.
Yes, never be discouraged if someone you are witnessing to doesn't immediately decide to give their lives to the Lord. That doesn't mean they never will. There may be more conversations you'll be able to have with your aunt in the future now that you've introduced the subject. And it may very well be that, even though it appears she wasn't receptive to the message, she did hear it and will remember it someday in a time when she is looking for answers to the questions of life.
My eyes stay open through the watches of the night, that I may meditate on your promises. (Psalm 119:148)
After Trumps rally last night (8/22) I thought about the Word being a seed, a two-edged sword, going forth and not returning void, etc. (you fill in the blanks). Three dear Saints--Ms. King, Reverend Graham, and V.P. Pence--prayed and spoke passages directly from the Bible. We know God looks on a man's heart and we know the Holy Spirit gently convicts and His kindness leads to repentance. I pray for every person at that rally who may have considered the condition of his soul. Please Lord, put laborers in their path. God, how we need repentance and revival before the terrible day of the Lord. Thank you for our president and may he,too, be counted worthy.

EnochWalked: Do "basic rights" include the right to bring a "temporary" altar onto the mount and carry out rituals there? Anyway, it's April 18th in Israel now, so the next sunset there will I think mark the time for selecting paschal lambs. Red heifer sacrifice too?

EnochWalked: www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-797737 "Iranian commander warns Tehran could review its 'nuclear doctrine' amid Israeli threats". If the Saudis took control of Temple Mount (with Israeli help), might Iran target it with a nuke just out of spite?

EnochWalked: “We are hoping that soon the Third Temple will be built there, and we’ll be able to eat there from the Passover sacrifices.” (The source is biased, and the quote is possibly mistranslated, but it's not an unexpected thing for an MK to say nowadays).

yardstick: wasnt the passover supposed to be celebrated in the home?
Apr 18, 2024 18:19:53 GMT -6
EnochWalked: Good point, yardstick. I think this might be an allusion to Deuteronomy 16:16 though: "Three times a year all your males shall appear before the Lord your God in the place which He chooses: at the Feast of Unleavened Bread, ..." interpreted as the Temple.

EnochWalked: www.yahoo.com/news/iran-may-reconsider-nuclear-doctrine-134127569.html "Iran threatens to target Israeli nuke facilities; Middle East on 'precipice' of bigger war". The previous article mentioned strikes on/near Iran's nuke facilities too.

Apr 18, 2024 21:01:44 GMT -6
EnochWalked: That's a nice idea in theory, but what incentive does Israel have to grant that recognition, even if the negotiations were to occur? The Biden administration is effectively giving Israel a veto at the UN, which may make EU members act unilaterally.

Servant: @ew: The show from Blaze is interesting. I don't know what will happen if the Ark comes out in public if the Arab world consider the red heifer as a provocation.
Apr 19, 2024 21:29:54 GMT -6
EnochWalked: Servant, it's possible that the Ark will be accompanied by signs and wonders, and the Muslim countries might even celebrate it if the AC claims to be a descendant of Mohammed, for example. MBS would gladly fund a Temple in Jerusalem for such a figure.
