Mary, the Untier of Knots

Mary the Untier of Knots, also called Mary the Undoer of Knots is a Baroque image by Johann George Melchior Schmidtner, which dates from around 1700.

It may be seen in the Catholic pilgrimage church of “St. Peter am Perlach”, otherwise Perlach church, in Augsburg, Bavaria, Germany.

The image shows the Virgin Mary untying knots while stepping on the head of a snake, symbolizing the Devil and also the prophecy in Genesis 3.15 “Thy seed shall bruise the serpent’s head.” As we know, the fruit of Mary’s seed is the savior Jesus Christ, who “bruises” and refutes the Devil with his holy teachings.

Prayer for My Parents to Accept My Boyfriend

Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for allowing me to have a safe day today. I thank you for introducing Your child into my life. I humbly come before You today as I would like to pray for my parents to accept my boyfriend. My boyfriend’s immune system is not that strong. When he was 10, he experienced depression and that cause his growth rate to slow. He could have reached 172cm.Compared to others, he is not very tall. In fact, he is 160cm, as as me.

When my mum saw him, she told me this is not possible because she will prefer my boyfriend to be tall and gives off a secure feeling. Lord, when he entered my life about a year ago, it was amazing. I found someone who I can talk to , someone who appreciates me for who I am. We started dating about half a year ago.

During this period, he is the best thing that has happened to me. Father, I went through one relationship where my ex was violent towards me. It took me a while to recover and I do see why he wanted to break. It was because it wouldnt do us good for sticking together. Although I did not know You back then, I thank You for seeing me through those hard times.

The breakup was hard, the tears were real. Still Father, I see the reason for that separation. And I thank You for that. But for this time, I hope You can help me and my boyfriend to tide through the obstacles ahead of us. It wont be easy but I believe with You, everything will turn out fine.
In fact, Im not from a Christian family but through him, I got to know You. I got to know Your goodness, Your love that is so unconditional. I got to know of Faith. Through him,

I see life differently. I thank Father for bringing him to my life. Pardon my greediness, but if You can, please give us some miracle. Allow him to have the strength to go through the obstacles laid for us. Allow me to never lose faith in Your goodness, in Your plans. Father, if we are meant to be, please make all things possible for us. I pray that he can grow taller, stronger.

I know it could be impossible. But I believe that, with God, Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit, please guide us through. Please give us the strength to walk through this journey. With Your grace and mercy, make things possible for us. Lord, i know there will be tough days. But I truly hope the ending would be a beautiful one.

And we will further need Your strength and mercy during the tougher times. We will be working on this too, to allow my parents to look beyond the physical but to the personality that shines within him. But with that, we will need Your grace and Your mercy to support us.
I thank Father once again to allow me to meet such a great boyfriend. But if You can do more, I pray for a great ending. Lord, I really do. In Jesus Name, I pray. AMEN.

The Rapture in The Bible

The rapture is a controversial topic among many Christians. Lets take a close look at what the bible say about the rapture, and answer some of the most common questions regarding end-times.

What is the Rapture?

The term ‘rapture’ has embedded itself in much of the modern Christian church due to the dramatization of the concept through literature and film, particularly through the popular Left Behind series.

The term is used to refer to a sudden taking away of Christian believers from the Earth.

Apparently, Christians will be ‘raptured’ just prior to seven years of ‘tribulation’ or years of extreme difficulty and suffering for those who remain living on the Earth. Non believers will be left behind to face the end times.

In this article, we will examine the Biblical basis for the concept of a the Rapture, as well as discuss the variations of beliefs regarding the circumstances which will surround that event.

What the Bible Says About the Rapture?

Many people are surprised to learn that rapture is not a Biblical term, but it is true. You will not find the word rapture in the Bible, particularly not in reference to the second coming of Christ or the removal of Christians from the Earth.

The term ‘rapture’ is ‘extra-Biblical,’ in a similar way that the terms ‘Trinity’ and ‘Triune God’ are also extra-Biblical. They are terms representative of concepts found within Bible passages, but which never had those exact terms applied to them by the writers.

The concept of the rapture is derived from the New Testament book of First Thessalonians and the fourth chapter, as shown in verses 15 through 17.

“For the Lord himself shall come down from heaven with commandment, and with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God: and the dead who are in Christ, shall rise first. ” [1 Thessalonians 4:16]

It is quite obvious that the basic definition of the rapture is taken from these verses.

The Bible does clearly state that their will be a time when Christians still living on the Earth shall be ‘taken up.’ The debate between Christians on this tends to be in two areas:

One being whether this scripture is meant to be taken literally or figuratively. Secondly, and more commonly, the debate is more one of timing. Is the rapture something that takes place several years prior to Christ’s final coming or as an integral part of that singular event?

When Will The Rapture Happen?

As stated above, the debate on the event labeled as The Rapture centers primarily about when this event will occur in relation to the other prophesied events surrounding the Second Coming of Christ.

Although there are several minor variations, the two primary camps of thought on the subject are the ‘pre-tribulation’ and ‘post-tribulation’ proponents. To understand their viewpoints, we must first examine what the Bible has to say about this period commonly referred to as the Great Tribulation.

What the Bible Says About the Great Tribulation

The Biblical basis for what has been referred to as the Great Tribulation comes primarily from references in the Gospels:

“Immediately after the tribulation … then shall appear the sign of the Son of Man [Jesus] … and he shall gather his elect” [Matthew 24:29“31; Mark 13:24-27; Luke 21:25-27]

This declaration of a time of tribulation or trouble is then coupled with the series of devastating events described in the prophetic Book of Revelation which culminate in a thousand year reign of Christ on the Earth.

Pre or Post Tribulation Rapture?

The fact is that both sides of the debate can provide you with a trail of scripture references that back their reasoning for believing in a rapture event that occurs prior to or following this period of tribulation.

To fully demonstrate those arguments would take much more time and space than we’ve allotted for this article. However, we can address the ‘attitude’ which the Bible encourages us to have in regards to the events of the future, particularly those which my cause us anxiety or concern.

The Attitude of Those Who Trust in Christ

“…I know the one in whom I trust, and I am sure that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until the day of his return.” [II Timothy 7: 12b NLT]
“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” [John 16:33 KJV]

In conclusion, the Bible clearly teaches that Christ will again return to gather his followers to himself, that he will take them up or ‘rapture’ them from the current Earth.

When that will occur can be debated and where he will be taking them may be debated, however, if you trust in what the Bible says, as a follower of Christ you need not fear tribulation or death. We follow One whom we can trust and who desires and offers us peace, now and for future days and events, as well.

20.

“Do not forsake your friend and your father’s friend, and do not go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity. Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother who is far away.” [Proverbs 27:10]

What do these bible verses teach us about God’s view of friendship?

After reading through the friendship Bible verses, you can see what god believes is the true character of a real friend. Friends are closer than a brother and their love endures through all just as in the case of David and Jonathan in the Old Testament.

A friend will lay down their life for you and sacrifice self often for your well being. Having said that, a true friend will also tell you the truth and give you council even when you don’t want to hear it.

He cares about you and is happy when he sees you happy, and will often pray for you. Even in an intimate relationship between a man and a woman as described in the Song of Songs, the spouse is called a friend. These Bible quotes about friendship can teach us a lot about how we should act toward our friends, especially when we are Christians.

Healing In The Bible

There are many instances of healing in the bible. But, does that prove that God actually heals believers who pray to him?

One of the most challenging times of any Christian’s walk with God is when they or a loved one face a time of illness.

For many, it is easy to know God can do anything, but when the need for a healing is personal it can be much more difficult to keep that faith.

So what does the Bible say about healing? The more that you study the answers, the more you will be able to find the strength to trust God even during the most difficult challenges.

Scriptures About Healing

There are many scriptures about healing in the Bible. Below are just a few of the many examples.

Now see that I, even I, am He, And there is no God besides Me; I kill and I make alive; I wound and I heal; Nor is there any who can deliver from My hand.

Deuteronomy 32:39

O LORD my God, I cried out to You, And You healed me.

Psalms 30:2

Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; Save me, and I shall be saved, For You are my praise.

Jeremiah 17:14

Behold, I will bring it health and healing; I will heal them and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.

Jeremiah 33:6

Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. {15} And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. {16} Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.

James 5:14-16

How to Pray for Healing

The first thing to keep in mind when praying for healing is the most well-known example of prayer in the Bible: The Lord’s Prayer. In this prayer is a line that can be so hard to say, especially when you have a desperate need such as for a healing.

Nevertheless not my will, but thine be done.

Luke 22:42

Just like Jesus petitioned God to be delivered from his crucifixion, we can petition God for healing. However, Jesus understood that what the flesh wants isn’t always what God wants. Therefore, prayers for healing should always include “not my will, Lord, but yours be done.”

That being said, the Bible also tells us to make our petitions known to God.

Fret not about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God.

Phillippians 4:6

When you pray about healing, seek to do so with a heart that trusts God. While it can seem almost impossible, try to pray without fear and without being anxious. This is difficult, but ask God to increase your faith and to give you peace through this time of trial.

What if Healing Doesn’t Come?

While we wish it could be different, the fact is that healing is not always going to come.

This doesn’t mean that God didn’t hear you or that He doesn’t care about you. The fact is that at the end of every life is death. Death is not a sign of a God who doesn’t care; it is just the natural end of every life. When death comes too soon – especially when a child is involved – it is so hard not to wonder how that could be just in God’s eyes. But remember what it says in Isaiah:

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”

Isaiah 55:8-9

Yes, it seem cruelly unfair when we lose a loved one or when we are sick with no sign of healing in sight, but we are looking at the situation with human eyes. God’s ways are higher than our, and we cannot understand them fully. Some think that the absence of a healing means God is angry or that the person who needed the healing did something wrong. We know that is not the case by what it says in the book of Matthew.

That ye may children of your Father which is in heaven: for He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

Matthew 5:45

It rains on the just and the unjust. There is no promise to the righteous that healing will always come. The promise is that God is in control and that, in the end, those who love Him will live with Him whether or not they ever get a physical healing in this life.
