I don't know if Satan can read minds or not, but I know he will try to tempt you with all of his might. Just remember that God won't allow Satan to tempt you with something you can't handle. .................
1CO 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, that you may be able to endure it. (NAS) |

Remember that Satan is a fallen angel.(Is. 14:12-15)
1Peter 1:12 tells us that angels long to look into the new revelations that came through Christ. Only God is omnniscient.
Jude 6 speaks of the bondage fallen anges are under even now.
In Bible studies, we have often discussed how Satan is probably a student of humanity, having had the opportunity to study us for thousands of years. He can't read our minds, but he can read our countenance, our body language, our expressions, our lifestyle patterns. Even we can get good at doing the same with others, in our short lifetimes!
He probably uses anything that he can against us, and that's why sometimes we feel that he knows what's going on in our minds.
He will try to outwit us, and plans schemes against us. (2Cor.2:11) But we can resist him, (1Peter 5:9) and he will flee from us (James 4:7-8).
God bless you. |

But, there are a lot of Old and New Testament occurances that can relate to today and some are prophetic words for this time. I'm not sure about Jer 14 and 15, but scripture is for today. |

The immediate context would tell us that God encouraged Jeremiah to call out in his imprisonment, and God would reveal great things to His prophet. I would be hesitant to apply it to a Christian today.

Greetings Tio!
Basically, Jer. 33:3 simply means that God was going to reveal the Jeremiah the future of Israel.
He would bring judgement upon Israel, but He would also restore Israel and Judah. These things were not known by any man, because they were future events. But, God knew them and promised to tell Jeremiah, if He would call upon Him.

Hi TIO, Tim is correct here as far as he goes. He is probably cautioning you not to take it out of context and apply it to yourself too much. But I will not do that for although the word came to Jeremiah it is the word of God to us as well.
Tim mentioned Israel and Judah as they are mentioned in verse four. But we can also skip to verse 14, "Behold, days are coming,' declares the Lord, "when I will fulfill the good word which I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and the house of Judah. In those days and at that time I will cause a righteous (Branch) of David to spring forth; and He shall execute justice and righteousness on the earth." This Branch is none other than Jesus Himself. So you see, this word is for us also.
Jeremiah 33:3 talks of mighty things, verse 6 talks of revealing an abundance of peace and truth, and the Branch in John 4:25 is expected to "declare all things to us." John 4:25, "The woman said to Him, "I know that Messiah is coming (He who is called Christ); when that One comes, He will declare all things to us."
So, whether you want to hear mighty things or all things, call on Him and He will hear you and give you all that you need. God will give you life in His word, and that more abundantly. |

First "Gee" is offensive, it is taking the Lord's name in vain by shortening it and not keeping it holy.
Second, I gave a more detailed answer.

Greetings Ray!
Thanks for the extention! I didn't read that far down in my quick reply. The Messianic prophecy is definitely part of what Jer. 33:3 refers to and still fits my basic answer. It was part of the unknown future that God revealed to Jeremiah (the most IMPORTANT part).
You were also correct that I was concerned about how some might take Jer. 33:3. It is the kind of verse that those who want to add the message of Scripture love! ;-)

Hi, and welcome to the forum, I don't believe I talked to you before. United States in particular and the Western hemisphere are simply not mentioned in the Bible. To try to make a connection is forcing scripture. As far as nations go, God only wrote about nations that directly effect/effected Israel. The rest of the world (most of Europe Australia, Arctic Antarctic, most of Asia , most of Africa, North and South America is not mentioned or is included in the generalized term Islands. While we have a great nation, one which we all are proud of it is kind of presumptuous to try to place the US in Biblical prophecy in light of all the other nations that are not mentioned.
I hope this answeres your question

So, do you think we (the U.S.) are not touching Israel currently? We are certaining a main factor in the crisis in the middle east and have been for a long time. Do you think the terrorist attacks on Sept 11 have anything to do with Israel? Read Rev. 18..so I beg to differ. But, I am thankful for your insight. |

At times, we all use words without realizing or knowing the actual meaning or origin of them. I do not condemn you. I merely point out how the dictionary defines the word "gee."
"*gee* (interjection) Used as a mild expletive or exclamation of surprise. [Alteration of JESUS.]" (American Heritage Dictionary) |

If you can get really picky about it, any expletive can be said to be the same thing in some form or fashion. I think as long as you don't actually say it, you're OK. Otherwise we couldn't say anything. :) |

Dear Norrie,
Greetings in Jesus' name!
As on that used as many expletives as possible in a previous life (son of a soldier), I can say that it is difficult to stop. But maybe that is the point! Stop saying so much. :-) We may call them exclamations or even expletives, but if the tone is a curse, it is not pleasing to God. Friend, I understand your concern about being too picky, but if we think about all of the 'abbreviated' curses and complaints that spill forth from our lips, most would be stillborn.
On another related topic, at what age would you allow children to express themselves? Is this what we want in the next generation of Christians? Not me! In my position as an educator, I can clearly see that these 'expressions' do not release stress, but encourage it! Teaching self-control to kids, especially self-control of the tongue allows it to be of more use for the Lord, IMHO.
I know that many will cry 'legalism!' That is your prerogative. But remember:
"Do not be hasty in word or impulsive in thought to bring up a matter in the presence of God. For God is in heaven and you are on the earth; therefore let your words be few." Ecclesiastes 5:2 NASB.
Peace and wisdom in Christ Jesus, charis

I assume you are inferring that the description of the destruction of Babylon we see in Rev 18 is what took place in NY? While NY was horrendous it isn’t the total or even approaching the total destruction we see described in Rev 18. So no Rev 18 doesn’t show me anything in relation to the US.
Yes we do have a active role in Israel now, but we apparently don’t in the End Time future since there are no references to US in any end time prophecy. Try as you may there simply isn’t anything that can be understood to be the US at the moment. And to try to do so as you have been told is forcing scripture.
Now I’m sure there are many ‘Prophecy Experts’ both on TV and writers that are trying to show the US in End Times. I ask you one question aren’t they the same men that were WRONG about Y2K? They are the same ones that continued to make money from their lousy prophecy even after they were told by experts and prophecy students alike that Y2K would not be a disaster. If you want to believe them fine!
Stop trying to find the US in the Bible. I suggest you read the Bible resting in the fact that no matter what happens Jesus Christ has promised not to leave nor forsake his flock. Our future and the future of the US rests in Christ Jesus!
Come quickly Lord Jesus

Ok...let me rephrase my question....Do you think these occurances that took place on Sept 11th (that just happen to be in the U.S.) have anything to do with what scripture states as the "End Times". Think carefully now! The Lord said some will have their eyes blinded and will not be able to see what is going on around them. I believe we are seeing the rise of the anti-christ already. Anybody got their eyes open?...and if the U.S. is NOT mentioned in scripture...then what? Total destruction? or do you think we are just kept out of it? come on people....we are believers in Jesus Christ and His word tells us what to look for...anybody else looking? |

You evidently have a theory why don’t you share it? As I and many other forum contributors have said we don’t see the US in Bible prophecy and especially Sept 11. However you apparently do, tell us where and be specific. Maybe you have something to teach us but until you tell us what it is we remain “blind” as you put it.
As for a reason why the US not in Biblical Prophecy I believe something happens and we are no longer major players. We must then ask the question, “Why?”
There could be many reasons. The US could be destroyed or rendered helpless by war, internal war, economic disaster, natural disaster, collapse of civilization, anarchy, and etc. Or the US could by this time have adopted a policy of non inference, isolationism, or total disarmament. We also could very much be included but referred to in general terms of a member of the Antichrist’s confederation.
Right now we see through the glass dimly but as the time approaches and it is coming fast we will understand more and more.
