     | 15,837 views

    There is a growing trend within some circles of Christianity to teach that a Born-Again Christian can declare and decree things over themselves, and others, as already done.

    The primary Scripture verse to support the teaching is: “Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.” (Job 22:28 KJV) The Hebrew word translated ‘decree’ in the verse is ‘gazar’ which is a verb in the masculine singular, and ...read more

Eventually, however, he was forced to share the responsibilities of government and he chose his 2 sons – Joel and Abijah – to assist him. He appointed them judges and sent ...read more
