Zone1 A Bible Study Done in Good Faith - "In Jesus' Name"? Yes - for a time at least but there is more to the story....

[Ace Nova]

yes for a time what?

quite deleting stuff from thread tyrant.

Out of an ultimate act of love - Jesus not wanting his Apostles to feel remorse and despair - blesses them, - in order for their "joy to be complete"... He tells them "Do not worry, although you won't be able to ask me anymore - anything you ask my Father, in my name, will be done - so that your joy can be complete".


This was a sacred gift given to the Apostles during one of their darkest moments - full of pain and despair. It was meant as a temporary act of love - to get them through their time of grief, by knowing that he is from God because God will provide anything asked in his name.


He immediately goes on to say, "Soon, I will no longer use figures of speech but will tell you directly. On that day, you will still ask in my name but by then, I will no longer intercede on your behalf." Because. by then, if you truly believe in me and love me, you will be able to ask the Father directly and he will provide because of your love and faith in me.

IN jesus's name I send forth the the power of the holy spirit and the archangel Michael to conquer all enemies of goodness, amen.

Did it work?

Probably not. For starters, who is anyone to "command The Holy Spirit"? or "St. Michael The Arch Angel?" We can "ask" to do so and so forth but "stating that you "send forth the power of Holy Spirit and the Arch Angel Michael" as if you were some sort of Super Hero blasting away at "bad guys" isn't the way it works.

Even if you insist on praying "In Jesus Name" - Jesus specifically states that "anything you ask of The Father in My Name" So whenever praying in "Jesus' Name" the prayer should always be directed to God The Father first.

And most importantly, your idea of "all enemies of goodness" could be vastly different than what God The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit consider "all enemies of goodness".

This post would be a "graduate level" course of understanding - advanced - so no, it would not be intended for "the children" of the faith. (Newly Christian, etc)

Would that graduate level course be at Bollocks University, in the state of Wankerville ?

Although mildly amusing, I would expect better material from you by this point.

I thought that last one was apt and hilarious .

You are probably a spooky False Spirit so I am saving my garlic soaked barbs for later .

BTW . I often channel Ezekiel and he has hinted at you being a False voice . Isiah on Fridays so I shall be chatting to him .

It's a fairly standard prayer.

it worked well.

enemies of goodness know who they are.

the rest is between them and Lord Jesus, king of the Jews.

Christians do pray directly to the Father, but end prayers "in Jesus name", which has different meaning to different people such as by the authority of Jesus Christ, or as a follower or disciple of Jesus Christ, or as one who has taken the name of Christ as bethrothed to him.

Jesus proclaim Himself to be the Messiah
I'll just give one example ie Jacob's well

the ignorance of Biblical exegesis on this thread is amazing

And, the woman at the well wasn't a Jew, nor a Samaritan.

I think you're wrong.

A Samaritan woman came to draw water, and Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink.

She was an Israelite (as was the Canaanite woman) living in Samaria. Jesus was "sent only" to the lost Israelites and instructed the disciples to avoid the Samaritans but to go instead to the lost Israelites as well. Read carefully the accounts.

how could she be an Israelite if Jesus told her, her form of religion was corrupt and that Jews had the correct form of religion

This thread was not intended to "attract" anyone to the Faith - it was done in Good Faith for the faithful in Christ - so we can better understand the teachings of Jesus - and the nature of God.

This post would be a "graduate level" course of understanding - advanced - so no, it would not be intended for "the children" of the faith. (Newly Christian, etc)

It is bollocks given that we now have Morphine and lots of other ways to combat pain and suffering .

The Essene Monk is redundant , though that does not nullify his alleged kind act .

But it does perhaps show that Jesus the Essene Priest had taken on some human qualities as a likely Alien Hybrid .

Jeroboam corrupted the religion when Israel was divided. The Levitical priesthood remained in Jerusalem with the Jews. The descendants of the northern kingdom living in Samaria and Canaan were in spiritual "darkness" until Jesus.

Matthew 4

12 "Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee;

13 And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim:

14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;

16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

Interesting that Zacharias, father of John the Baptist and member of the Aaronic priesthood recognized that Israel was in spiritual darkness and looked forward to the advent of Christ.
