You're right the seed of the woman is Christ. That seed was created in the womb of Mary. Then it was born, became Jesus Christ who is the seed also called The Promise seed from Genesis 3:15. Listen to the teaching again. I think you will see that clearly. God bless you abundantly in the name of Jesus Christ. Steve
God bless you. May I suggest that on my website, stevejaynes.com, under the classes and teaching page, I have the entire course on the Last Supper Through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ and a class on How to Read the Bible for Understanding and Power? I put these two classes together to help Bible students understand how to accurately understand the Bible when they read it.
Can't you see the contradictions you make.. You say "I believe that "God" is a healing power and I can be healed".. Why would you need to be healed if you have no fear?..
That's how you defeat fear trusting in God, knowing God's Word, believing it, and acting upon it will defeat fear. God's word clearly tells us that fear hurts us, and we need to defeat it with God in His Word. A simple word study would help you to understand this.
@@gladtidi Fear is literally the ONLY reason to believe the things you do.. I know this because I was once like you... When you wake up and realize that "he" is the liar, using your fear against you, then you just might be able to actually defeat fear... But as long as you believe that you need him to protect and heal you, then you haven't "defeated fear" AT ALL...
We're not to fear God but to love God it's the goodness of God that lead us a man to repentance the word fear in the Bible means reverence awe or respect and of course love for a wonderful God
@@gladtidi Then why does the bible use the word "fear", rather than "reverence awe or respect"?.. That is like saying that when it says good it means evil... Oh, wait.. Now it makes sense...
There is absolutely nothing mysterious about Biblical "tongues" - and there is only one type - when referring to something spoken, they are nothing more than real, rational language(s); usually, but not always, unknown to those listening to them, but always known by the speaker(s) - it’s their native language (in some cases, it is a language the speaker has learned). In contrast, the “tongues” Pentecostal and Charismatic Christians are producing today is an entirely self-created phenomenon. It is non-cognitive non-language utterance; random free vocalization based upon a subset of the existing underlying sounds (called phonemes) of the speaker’s native language, and any other language(s) the speaker may be familiar with or have had contact with. It is, in part, typically characterized by repetitive syllables, plays on sound patterns, alliteration, assonance, and over-simplification of syllable structure. It is also interesting to note that any and all phonological rules (rules governing how sounds are put together in a given language - what is allowed and what is disallowed) governing a speaker's native language, will _also_ govern their tongues-speech. Further, this subset of phonemes mentioned above typically contains only those sounds which are easiest to produce physiologically. Occasionally some speakers will use two or more subsets of phonemes to generate glossolalia, producing what, to them, sounds like two (or more) distinct “tongues languages”, thus claiming to be able to speak in “divers tongues”. There is absolutely _nothing_ that “tongues-speakers” are producing that cannot be explained in relatively simple linguistic terms. Conversely, when it comes to something spoken, there are absolutely _no_ Biblical references to “tongues” that do not refer to, and cannot be explained in light of, real rational language(s), though it may not be the explanation you want to hear, and it may be one which is radically different from what you believe, or were taught. _Nowhere in the Bible is modern tongues-speech advocated or evidenced._ “Praying in the Spirit” does _not_ refer to the words one is saying. Rather, it refers to how one is praying. In the three places it is used (Corinthians, Ephesians, and Jude), there is absolutely zero reference to 'languages' in connection with this phrase. “Praying in the Spirit” should be understood as praying in the power of the Spirit, by the leading of the Spirit, and according to His will. I'm not doubting or questioning the 'tongues experience'; glossolalia as the spiritual tool that it is, can be very powerful and, for many people, the experience is profound. As one commenter put it, “Speaking in tongues distracts the ego/analytical/conscious mind while leaving the subconscious (the heart) wide open to import the divine." Both the spiritual and physical benefits of using this tool are also well documented. Again though, it is important to note that this same statement can be made for virtually _any_ other culture that practices glossolalia. Religious and cultural differences aside, the glossolalia an Evenki Shaman in Siberia, a vodoun priestess in Togo and a Christian tongues-speaker in Alabama are producing are in no way different from each other. They’re all producing their glossolalia in the exact same way; they just have different explanations and beliefs as to why they’re doing it, and where it comes from. It is only in certain Christian denominations where is it construed as something it never was. For many tongues-speakers, a lot of it seems to be about perception. To use an analogy, why is that when people with Schizophrenia say that someone is watching and following them, we tend to think it’s paranoia, but when your mum says it, you go to the police? Same perception and associated claim (i.e. each perceive that someone is watching and following them) The (probable) validity and meaning of the claim hinges and changes on the difference in the physical state and capacity of who is doing the perceiving and claiming. Same as with glossolalia - it’s validity, so to speak, tends to hinge on how it is perceived by the individual from what they are experiencing….or, perhaps even more so, what they were _taught_ to experience. I tend to think it’s a bit of both. ‘Tongues’ (read, *‘languages’* ) - the divine gift, is the God given ability to effortlessly learn to speak and be understood through real-language barriers. It is not xenoglossy, nor is it modern tongues-speech. As a point of note, I’m a Linguist, and let me also add here that I am neither a so-called ‘cessationist’ nor a ‘continuationist’ - I do not identify with either term; in fact, I had never heard the two terms until just late in 2016. As far as I’m concerned, quite frankly, since the Biblical reference of “tongues” is to real, rational languages, obviously “tongues” haven’t “ceased”.
That's not what the Bible says. The Bible tells us exactly what it is. What I presented is the accuracy of God's Word. Not myths or misinterpretations but the Word of God s it was presented to men of God as they spoke for God. If you really want to know what speaking in tongues is and how it is profitable to listen to the teaching
@@gladtidi Yep, it does - it tells us when referring to something spoken, "tongues" are real, rational language(s). Absolutely nowhere in the Bible is modern tongues-speech evidenced or advocated.
You are right there is nothing mysterious about Biblical speaking in tongues. All you have to do is look at the Scriptures that deal with it. They clearly laid out their function, how to use them, and how to benefit from them God wants us to have. God wants us to have a really good spiritual connection with him. Speaking in tongues gives this to the believer. Listen to the podcast, it's well documented the benefits of speaking in tongues.

God bless you, I have started videoing the class, but I an waiting for my 2nd editions release date to start showing them. I will show one video per week. I thought it would be done by now. We will just have to wait for the publisher to get it done.
