What does the bible say about grandparents favoring one grandchild over another?
The Bible doesn't say specifically "Grandparents must not .....", so you have to look at parental examples and extrapolate it:-
David is a good example of what NOT to do:
-he was a bad parent, his family life was atrocious, he didn't discipline his children, allowed them to do whatever they liked;
-He committed adultery with Bathsheba, who was his advisor Ahithopel's grandaughter, so since girls in those times were married off ASAP she was probably in her teens. (At the very least it would make David a cradle-snatcher.)
In the New Testament, ( paraphrasing Paul), he told fathers not to play favourites or favour one child over another and cause them to hate you.
Speaking personally, I am a grandparent and can relate to this: my father was a "hands-off" parent while my mother openly and blatently played favourites, and it wasn't me! (It still hurts.) With the grandchildren I have my favourites, and I have some I don't like as much but I try not to show it too much, but to share it equally around (if that makes sense). They didn't ask to be born, and their behaviour and personality is determined at least as much by their parents' combined genes as by their environment. I can't control who my children marry [and thus the genes of their children], I can't control their environment at home, but I can control MY environment. Think of yourself as a piece of pie, and when they are together give everyone an equal-sized piece, but if they come to you individually there's nothing wrong with giving them a second slice. Try not to play blatant favourites when they are together, but one thing you must do when they ask questions is to always tell the truth. Remember that you are accountable to God.
The short answer to your question is, basically, don't.
Do I stand up for praise and worship in church?
This is a great way to engage in praise and worship -- if it's acceptable in your church. If others don't you might want to have a discussion with your leaders or others in you congregation. But if the Spirit move you ... obey the Spirit of the Lord!

"and peter said unto them :repent, be baptized,everyone of you, and ye shall receive the gift of the holyghost.for this blessing is unto :you, your children, and those that are afar off, even as many as the lord our god shall call."(acts2:38-39)

How many Pentecostal people are in the world?
The number of Pentecostals in the world is difficult to determine. According to one source written in 2004, the number is 250 to 500 million. If only traditional churches, like Assemblies of God or those with the Pentecostal name, are considered, the number is lower. If the term Pentecostal refers to all churches and movements that emphasize the Holy Spirit (such as Charismatics and Full Gospel), the number is higher.
According to another source, the number is 279 million, but those who consider themselves "Charismatic, Full Gospel, etc. are not included in that number. The source also states that the movement is growing worldwide.

The influence of pentecostal movement in society?
The Influence of Pentecost in our society.
Pentecost in not a religion. It is an experience!. It stands for the Day of Pentecost..that is spoken of in the bible...in the Book of Acts. The Spirit of the Lord fell on those that were in the "upper room". They spoke in a heavenly language....that came from God. It signified that HIS Spirit....had filled their being.
When the Holy Spirit enters into our being....it can become our strength and power to be overcomers of the evil vices of this world. With prayer and reading of the Word of God....the Holy Spirit will lead us and guide us into all truth. It will give us a desire to
live a Christian life....free from the sins of this world.
The Pentecostal experience will cause us to love our fellow man. To be kind, gentle and
compassionate. Truthful! It can be a great asset to our society. It takes a real man or
woman to live in this society for Christ. But it CAN be done.
Many who call themselves Pentecostal....have disgraced the name. But you will know a
TRUE Pentecostal....by their Fruit. They will be trustworthy. They will have the love that
Christ had for others. They will do good works. They will be of good character. They will
be "church goers".
OH...definately....REAL....Pentecostal people can have a great influence on our society.
Our society is really looking for something to satisfy the longing that they crave. God
made us with an emptiness....that HE knew....only His Spirit could fill...and...satisfy!
The Pentecostal movement will suffer....because the Pentecost experience is God's plan today....for our salvation. And Satan happens to know that. He will do all within
his power to tear it down and try to destroy it. It is REAL...it is God's Spirit in us...and
GREATER IS HE THAT IN WITHIN US.... than he that is in the world!
How do you get an evil spirit who visits you in your dreams to stop?
It is felt that demons tend to show interest in those who manifest an interest in their activities. If you want to free yourself from demon involvement, don't show interest.
1. Get rid of any occult paraphernalia, entertainment or literature
2. Read the Bible daily, even out loud if possible, and think about what you're reading
3. Pray for God's help and protection
4. Don't watch movies or entertainment pertaining to violence and occult subjects, especially just before bed
Remember that according to the Bible, "...the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one" (1 John5:19)(2 Corinthians 4:4) and he's looking for opportunity to keep humans away from God through deception, fear and confusion.( John 8:44)
(1 Peter 5:6-10) " Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt YOU in due time; while YOU throw all YOUR anxiety upon him, because he cares for YOU. Keep YOUR senses, be watchful. YOUR adversary, the Devil, walks about like a roaring lion, seeking to devour [someone]. But take YOUR stand against him, solid in the faith, knowing that the same things in the way of sufferings are being accomplished in the entire association of YOUR brothers in the world. But, after YOU have suffered a little while, the God of all undeserved kindness, who called YOU to his everlasting glory in union with Christ, will himself finish YOUR training, he will make YOU firm, he will make YOU strong. "*(Acts 17:27)
(Acts 19:18-19) ". . .And many of those who had become believers would come and confess and report their practices openly. Indeed, quite a number of those who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them up before everybody. And they calculated together the prices of them and found them worth fifty thousand pieces of silver."

This is more of an opinionated question/answer but for me I think it depends on the style of the particular youth person, how they were raised, and whether God is dealing with them spiritually.

Is pentecostal right or wrong?
You have to make that decision, pentecost is not the only denomination. Not all denominations teach the right thing, pentecostals believe in the bible and the Holy Ghost dwelling inside of you. There is a heaven and hell and hell is not a nice place to be. So it's all up to you, but as far as my answer yes pentecost is right.
How do you reach Prophet Dr Edward Owuor?
The email to contact the Ministry is at the bottom of their website:
- iesus : from greek
- ioshua : from hebrew
- ieshua : from hebrew
The Latin letter used before "j" was added was "i", it served both purposes.
Did Solomon send the ark of the covenant to Ethiopia?
There is no reference to this in the Bible, so the answer would be, 'we don't know.' In Jeremiah 52, when the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians is recorded, there is no reference to the Ark, although many other things are mentioned specifically. This does not mean that the Ark was not in the temple, nor that it was not taken to Babylon. It may have been an unmentionable disgrace to mention this, or something else may have happened to it.
