1042 | Did OT saints go to heaven? | Dan 12:2 | CDBJ | 102833 | ||
Greetings Khuck, What translation are you using that suggest that there are seven scrolls and not seven seals on one scroll? Rev. 5:1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. All the translations that I have only mention one book or scroll, which comes to us from the Koine Greek, and it is the accusative, neuter, singular of the noun, BIBILON, and there are seven seals on the one book that must be broken before the contents of the book can be revealed. The contents of the book is the wrath of God and everything that takes place before the scroll is opened only leads up to God’s wrath, namely the seven seals, which are not the wrath of God but the wrath or vengeance of the devil and his man for the hour, the antichrist. Believers will not experience God’s wrath! There are believers in the tribulation period that can claim this same promise so why would the rapture have to occur before the tribulation, since it isn’t the wrath of God? 1 Peter 1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Gave a great day, CDBJ |

Hi Khuck, From what you are saying do you believe that the tribulation is the time of the wrath of God, and if so do you not believe the following? Philip. 1:29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake; 1 Thes. 3:4 For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know. 2 Thes. 1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: Could it be possible that the tribulation period is the wrath of Satan and not the wrath of God and believers will have to endure that period but they will be removed at some point during it and then God will pour His wrath on those that are left? 2 Thes. 1:5-9 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: 6Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you; 7And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, 8In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: 9Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; Notice when He will do this in the following verse! 2 Thes. 1:10 When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. Have a great day, CDBJ |

1044 | advice | Hebrews | CDBJ | 102231 | ||
Hello Taleb, Here all along I have been under the impression that this was a Bible study forum not a study on tradition, have I been misinformed? Jesus had more trouble with those that followed the mixed up traditions of the Jew more then any other group! Mark 7:9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. Mark 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye. The Pharisees and the Sadducees were great when it came to the traditions you are suggesting but Jesus told them of their future! Matthew 23:27-33 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. 28Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. 29Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, 30And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. 31Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. 32Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. 33Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

1045 | Spiritually, who are the seven churches? | 2 Tim 3:16 | CDBJ | 101410 | ||
Greetings compudex, With your understanding of II Tim 3:16, and what you are suggesting, “So reading and heeding the Words written to the Seven Churches has to do with us also.” In that case wouldn’t it be safe to say, using that logic, that since God told Noah to build an ark that I better start on mine? Wouldn't it be better to say that it might possibly pertain to us today? All Scripture has a primary interpretation and a lot of Scriptures have a practical application! 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Thanks Tim, I guess I read things sometimes without double-checking! That’s why it kind of surprised me that Searcher would say something like that, and here it’s because I can’t rear properly what people write. Again thanks for calling it to my attention, CDBJ |

1048 | An Arminian Consensus in the Forum? | 1 John 2:2 | CDBJ | 101097 | ||
If you think it is incomplete, I am afraid you are trying to add to grace and therefore you don’t understand what I was saying in the first place because the Lord hasn’t revealed it to you yet, and that’s not my responsibility but the work of the Holy Spirit. Ephes. 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephes. 4:21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: John 6:45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me. Have a great day, CDBJ |

1049 | An Arminian Consensus in the Forum? | 1 John 2:2 | CDBJ | 101090 | ||
It sounds to me like a lot of people are missing the issue! Sins aren’t the focal point since Christ has died on the cross for them. The issue now is Christ Himself and the Holy Spirit is the only one who can point this out to a person. The only issue now is faith in the One whom God has provided, believe it or reject it! Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would convince people of the only thing that will condemn them, which is not believing in the work that God did through His Son, Jesus! John 16:8-9 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9Of sin, because they believe not on me; John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. I would say that makes it pretty conclusive unless you don’t believe it and then it’s blaspheme of the work of the Spirit! John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Hi Searcher56, You mentioned something in you post that has me puzzled? You stated, “if a CHRISTIAN has unconfessed sin at death, they will go to heaven” Could you please expatiate on this statement? And where does the one, who has trusted and believed in Christ go, if they haven’t confessed every last big or little sin, just before they die? CDBJ |

1051 | Dear John: Is it possible? | Eph 2:3 | CDBJ | 99355 | ||
Hello John, If what you believe in hyper Calvinism is true, with regard to only certain ones being chosen, and that choosing doesn’t depending on the free will of man, then why do you waste your time trying to convince people of the fact, since it won’t make any difference anyway, they are already chosen? It’s like beating a dead horse IF you really believe it! CDBJ |

1053 | Are you a follower of Jesus or a church? | Matt 10:32 | CDBJ | 98859 | ||
There is an interesting group of verses in Matthew that I have experienced first hand, when I first trusted in Jesus as my own personal Savior. Things have quieted down some but I still take abuse from many. Matthew 10:32-39 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. 33But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. 34Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 35For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. 36And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. 37He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. 39He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it. My own relatives said that I must have found religion or something; others said it’s only a phase of temporary insanity and he is becoming a Bible thumper. People can talk about God, and church, and denominations, all they want, without much flack; but when one emphasis the person and work of Jesus Christ and a living relationship with him, the adversary doesn’t like that even a little bit and he gets his dander up real quickly. 2 Tim. 3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. How many have had similar experience like this when you trusted Christ, and do you still have these problems? John 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. A person once made this comment, ”If you were ever arrested for believing in, and being a disciple of Jesus Christ, could they find enough hard evidence to convict you?” Notice, this isn’t asking if you attend or belong to a church or a group that professed to be Christians! Food for thought, CDBJ |

Hi Makarios, You are most kind! Whenever I speak of wit to my wife she says that I am half right! We have a great time teasing each other. It is so wonderful having a mate that loves the Lord and you know that they will spend eternity with you with Jesus. I almost lost her though several years ago and there is an actual prayer that I put on paper one night at about four in the morning, as I was pouring my heart out to the Lord. A SHORT PRAYER Oh Father I fear, and that for life, Not for me dare say, but for that of my wife. She’s a gem to me, now polished by years, The love of my life, a kindred in tears. I plead for her safety, her health, her well being, But the wear of cruel time is what I’ve been seeing. She loves you, Lord, and you are the best, I can’t compete when it comes to that test. Please let her stay here a while, and dispel my great fears, I love her move now in these golden of years. A helpmate for sure is what she has been, Always there by my side through thick and through thin. I know I’ve no right in this prayer I proclaim, But I ask this dear Father in Jesus’ sweet name. Amen |

Now that's a clasic, and it says exactly the way I understand it! CDBJ Here is another one by the same guy. THE TWO CHRISTIAN FAITHS ? There are two Christian faiths that reside upon this Earth. One emphasizes goodness the other a second birth. The first lay claims to being the best that they can be. But when it comes to heaven, they have to wait and see! The second ensures one heaven by believing what God said, By trusting in the Son he sent, who rose up from the dead. One expresses feelings for the brotherhood of man. The other promises deliverance, by faith in God’s great plan. The first takes bits and pieces from the Bible just for show; But when it comes to eternal life, the fact is, they don’t know! The other uses all God’s word to support a firm position. It brings them to a relationship through belief and true contrition. The first has a desire of where they want to be, But they’re enslaved by the curse of sin, and not as yet set free. The others bask in the love of God, provided by his Son, Because they trust in the promise, that He died for everyone. The first rely on deeds they’ve done, to gain God’s favored space. The second trust in the work Christ did, because it’s all by grace. He took our place for judgment and died for all our sins, And those that accept the grace of this, the Lord has welcomed in. So claim a promise from God’s word, he’s beholding to the task. Heaven and Earth may pass away, but God’s word will always last! By Charles D. Bickett, Jr. |

Hello Blessed, I agree with your post 100 percent but the interesting thing is that no matter how hard you try there are those who just cant see it and I have concluded that after awhile it’s just a waste of time, and here is why. 1 Cor. 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. This verse ties in with what Christ said to Peter in Matthew 16 Matthew 16:17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. All Scripture, in order to come to the proper conclusion, must have God as the teacher. This excellent teaching brings one to a total trust in God’s Son. John 6:45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me. Anything less then a 100 percent total trust in Jesus Christ for salvation isn’t effective salvation, and as a result some will argue with you till they a blue in the face, but the fact is they just don’t know yet until the Lord reveals it to them! They don’t truly know the Lord unless their faith is in Jesus entirely; not even the slightest bit of faith can be in anything else, including baptism, communion or any ritual of any sort, and still have it be considered true undivided faith in Christ, as God’s Word requires. The word for faith in the Greek, PISTIS, implies this when it speaks of salvation by believing in God’s Son, Jesus the Christ! As a result Jesus said, Matthew 7:21-23 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Many speak of faith and works, the teaching of the father is very exact when it comes to what would be considered work on our part. Here is the only work that we can claim as counting toward salvation. John 6:27-29 Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. 28Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? 29Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. Is that great or what, Jesus did it all and Jesus gets all the credit! Faith alone in Christ ALONE. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Hi Candy Lee, There is a little booklet out from, http://www.solagroup.org/products/books.html that goes into detail on this subject, that’s called, Understanding Scripture at Face Value, it covers the subject of figures of speech as well as a host of other things and I think I only paid fifty cents for it, CDBJ |
