Colossians 3:17 (KJV)
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
Hebrews 12:28 (KJV)
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
Isaiah 24:21-23
21 In that day the Lord will punish
the powers in the heavens above
and the kings on the earth below.
22 They will be herded together
like prisoners bound in a dungeon;
they will be shut up in prison
and be punished after many days.
23 The moon will be dismayed,
the sun ashamed;
for the Lord Almighty will reign
on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,
and before its elders—with great glory.
I like how that passage shows us that the kings of the earth are not the good guys, but the bad guys, and that they are associated with satanic powers (powers in the heavens above), with the one sole exception of the Lord as the only good king.
A donkey's burial is too good for Castro.
Jeremiah 22:18-19

Psalm 136:1 (KJV)

2 Peter 3:10-11 (KJV)
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness,
“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found.

Isaiah 5:8
Do something Danke
I don't even know what that means.
These were the spoils which remained of the plunder taken by the fighting men: 675,000 sheep, 72,000 cattle, 61,000 donkeys, and as for persons, 32,000 young women who had had no intercourse with a man.
Genuine, willful, aggressive ignorance is the one sure way to tick me off. I wish I could say you were trolling. I know better, and it's just sad.
Excellent post. +rep
Okay, now it makes sense.I don't even know what that means.I saw it earlier and tried to figure it out on my own. I finally gave up and looked for a different translation. I'm not crazy about KJV.
Hebrews 1:1-2 (NIV)
God’s Final Word: His Son
1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe.
The NIV has some really bad translations. The study tools I like to use when I study the Bible is the Strong's Exhaustive Concordance and a KJV Companion Bible to get the best translation of the Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic translations.Okay, now it makes sense.

Imperfect as us..
AS IS ALL HUMAN LANGUAGE, and every translation since
The Word and Spirit can transcend that..
Heck.. I trust on it.
I once had an 8 Translation,, and it was handy at times. Kind of a fuller view..but it changed nothing.
I have Bibletime.. but often a quick query online will give me whatever scripture comes to mind..
How cool is that
Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

John 10:14-15 (KJV)
14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found.

John 11:25 (KJV)
25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
That's right. Jesus lays down His life for His sheep only, not every person in the world.
For ANYONE who accepts Jesus as their savior.
John 3:16-17 (KJV)
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
A person who accepts Jesus is a sheep. Jesus knows His sheep and His sheep know Him. The sheep hear his voice and He lays down His life only for them. You just quoted the verse that said that.
You remind me of another scripture lawyer who takes scripture and twist it to make his point.
The verse is a metaphor. Jesus is the Shepherd and the sheep are those who follow him.
“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
Regardless, Jesus says He lays down His life for His sheep. Jesus does not lay down His life for those who do not follow Him. The Bible teaches particular atonement.
