1362 | Thorn in the flesh | Is 57:1 | CDBJ | 46283 | ||
Again I would like to say that I believe in healing as the Bible describes it. My point is that I don't go along with the sideshow healers that are so prevalent today. They make a mockery of the truth that is presented in the Word of God to the point that it is disgraceful: Nothing, more and nothing less! Most of those that I have met that follow this kind of action are the type that are dictated to by their emotions and they don't have enough doctrin stored up in their soul to fill a thimble. They are the moodiest bunch of believers that I have ever run into; they have wide emotional swings in their Christian walk, and can change almost faster then the weather: believe me when I tell you, I know because I have worked with many, most of which have a Holier then thou attitude that makes me bilious. Don't get me wrong I love them in the Lord! What disturbs me is the way they come across to unbelievers. Just like the old saying goes, "what they do, speaks so loud that I can't hear what they are saying". More oft then not, they have muddied up the water so much that the people they are around won't even listen to a clear presentation of the gospel from anyone else! This is something that I have seen and lived with and you couldn't convince me otherwise, no mater how hard you try. When people see this going on they figure, if this guy is right I don't want to be. 2 Cor. 5:20 A Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, Lets act like one, CDBJ |

Dear Scribe, don't misinterpret what I have said, I do believe in Devine healing, I just don't believe in, so called, devine healers! When someone isn't healed, at there shows, they blame it on the faith of the one that wasn't healed never on their actually not having the gift of healing, which evidently ended in the time of Paul. People have even been told to stop taking their medication, for serious problems that they have had, to show their faith is genuine and as a result have died. The, so-called healers have blamed the persons weak faith for the persons demise. I have seen the Lord heal people for his praise and glory and there was never a "healer" around. Yes I truly do believe in healing, but not the sideshow antics that are taking place at some gatherings where a believer's faith is questioned; where people are laid down on a stage like so much cordwood. Then to top it off people are duped out of there money for the furtherance of the sideshow, and the fancy lifestyle of the supposed healer. When the apostles had the gift of healing it was for the purpose of proof to their credentials, so that people would listen to their message about the saving work of Christ. They didn't do it for healings sake because sooner or later all that are healed will die of one thing or another and the same goes for the so called devine healers now days. If they have the gift of healing let see them go into the hospital and go room to room healing people then give a message of salvation to those standing by in amazement. When Isaiah talked of healing, it was from the sickness of sin and it's effects, and the results will go on forever, because the work of God's Son, Jesus Christ is a permanent work. Isaiah 53:5 (KJV) But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. This is what I have seen and heard and this what I know, CDBJ |

1365 | define speaking in tongues. | 1 Corinthians | CDBJ | 46157 | ||
Johnk, I agree with you 100 percent about what you said concerning the gift of speaking in tongues. They were show gifts that preceded the completion of the cannon of Scripture. It is even shown that Paul lost his gift of healing because he had to leave Trophimus in Miletum sick. 2 Tim. 4:20 Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick. Obviously Paul couldn't heal him of his sickness. Paul also made a statement in I Cor. 1 Cor. 13:9-10 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. 10But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. The word perfect comes to us from the Koine Greek word (TELEION) and is better translated completion and is in the neuter gender and is a reference to the culmination of God's Word which we call the Bible. It is evident that Paul was cognoscente of the fact that there would be a assembling of God's word into a single unit of scrolls. The only part of your statement that I think would be stretching a point is the plagues that are found in the book of revelation, with reference to prophecy of (this book), singular, the last book of the 66 that we have.

I wish you the best Nancy and I hope that you find your answers. It is just like I told you though you are asking the wrong persons. Jesus Christ is alive and is able to reveal himself to you if you really want to know what the truth is read the book of John in the New Testament. You sound like a very nice caring person but you need to see the reality of what God has done for you in the person of his Son. The fact is that Christ came into this world to pay a debt he didn't owe because we owed a debt we couldn't pay. 1 John 5:10-13 Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. 11And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. Acts 20:28 Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood. The best to you, CDBJ |

Hi Nancy, it is a translation from the Koine Greek and Hebrew, and the people that sponsor the forum sell them, I use one and they are great for a better understanding of the original language. CDBJ |

Hi Nancy, I must admit you are a very truthful person and I appreciate what you said, there aren't too many that would get on a Bible forum and speak as openly and truthfully as you have, you have more guts then I have. This force or loving power that you speak of that is supposed to be in all of us, If this force is so loving and caring doesn't it seem logical that he she or it would give us some kind of a format to go by instead of leaving everything all to chance? I think you know where I am going with this. There are some who would say that, the Bible was written by men, well who do they expect to write it, a duck or a fish. I use to think the same way that you do until I checked out the facts about the Bible. It isn't one book but actually 66 books that were written over a period of 1500 years by many different authors. I don't know if you are much into gambling, but I am sure you know what odds are. Well I love to play the stock market and I have found out that in order to be successful in the market one must put as many odds as possible in their favor, the long shots just don't pay off; the Bible is much the same when it comes to probability. Instead of checking a stock performance sheet, which is what one must do to check for probability of future performance, in the Bible one must check on the accuracy of predictions that are made and if they came to pass as predicted; this is called the answer to prophesy. The Bible contains 1,817 individual predictions concerning 737 separate subjects found 8352 verses. These predictions are by many different authors. That in it's self is amazing that they could all be in agreement; the reason being is because God inspired each one of them to write down his thoughts for mans benefit. Let me site you an example, over two thousand years before and up to four hundred year before the person of Jesus was born, there were hundreds of prediction made by different people in the Bible as to the berth of this man called Jesus: such thing as where, when, how why and so forth. The probability of all these predictions coming true in one person, as the actually did, was figured out by someone who likes figures and the odds were over 33 trillion to one. Now those aren't very good odds but that is just one example of the accuracy of the Bible. The Bible talks about the resurrection of the person of Jesus i.e. he came back from the dead, and this one fellow who didn't believe a word of it set out to prove it a myth and decided to write a book on his findings. After examining all the information that has been recorded both in the Bible and historical records that actually exist, he changed his mind half way through his book and became a staunch believer in the claims that the Bible makes about the person of Christ. So Nancy if these claims are true, why don't you give God a chance to prove it to you by reading the New Testament and ask God if this Jesus is alive, as the Bible claims, to reveal himself to you. If you are sincere and really want to know the truth, this one called Jesus who died and came back to life will communicate with you from the Bible. I found this out for myself and I ask you to take the challenge. God does love you and he wants to reveal himself to you but he say that he can only do it as you read his Word. Don't try to start in Genesis, start with the New Testament, CDBJ |

Hi Nancy, it's me again, CDBJ I was the first one to answer your post, it looks like you are raising some of the constituent's dander? Just remember it is a Bible forum and not a theological forum. Let me ask you a question just out of curiosity, and please don't get mad at me again. I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings, that's not my object, and nobody really has to answer to what I think any way, I am a nothing, so don't assume that I am some lawyer trying to trap you with words. Now I will tell you that I haven't read all the threads from the time you started this post, so if you don't like where I am going just brush me off and I will understand. Just remember these are not my ideas but what God has spoken to mankind through his Word the Bible. The Bible says this, Hebrews 9:27 (KJV) And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment. Now since God tells us this is going to happen, and we can assume that he isn't pulling our leg, it would behoove us to start thinking about what we are going to say on our behalf. Lets suppose that you just took your last breath, and then all of the sudden there is this tremendous bright light in front of you and you find yourself on your knees before a manly figure sitting on a throng. You are scared to death, pardon the pun, because you know that it is God himself because of the question he ask you. He ask you, Nancy why should I let you come into my kingdom; nothing more and nothing less? What would you tell him, how would you be prepared to answer? Now be honest as best you can and remember you can't put one over on this judge, like some may foul mother nature; he wants the truth and the next few million years depends on your answer. I am looking forward to your answer, CDBJ |

Hi Joe, you mentioned, www. Joniandfriends.org, well she was at our church a couple of Months ago and gave us her testimony, it was very impressive how she is being used of the Lord. She sure puts her faith in the Lord and is a shinning and living example of the following verse. 1 Thes. 5:18 (KJV) In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. She has surely fulfilled Romans 12:1 with her life. Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. Those that get off on this healing kick and think that we are all going to be pictures of health are living in a dream world. I just hope for their sakes that the Lord doesn't give them a big dose of reality some day because if he does their faith will be shattered beyond their imaginations. CDBJ |

Thanks for your response, I have found that about the only time that one might be picked on in this forum is when they come up with some off the wall doctrine. You are right as far as I can see it that we will never know all there is to know about God as long as we are in this body, but we are commanded to keep growing in the knowledge of him. 2 Peter 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen. It helps all those in the forum when new people fill out their personal profile. It shows to all just where you stand along with a little background. We often think that when someone doesn't fill out a personal profile that they are trying to hide something or that they have something up their sleeve. You can see any ones profile by clicking on the author. Thanks again, CDBJ |

Well, I tried to find ineffable and I couldn't find it in the translations that I use, but then again there are many translations of the Bible, and I don't have access to all of them. You said in your answer, , Please look up the word "ineffable" unless you already know what it means. THAT is what I believe. I am not trying to stir up trouble, just find the verse that people are referring to when they say, "Jesus said He was God in the Bible." You say that you believe in ineffable, that' nice? Now unless your conscience is bothering you, I don't know that anyone has accused you of stirring up any trouble, lest wise nothing that I have read. What seems to be the problem, did I say something that offended you, if I did I am very sorry. All I ask in my post was for your opinion, and your answer, as I see it, is that you believe in ineffable. Thank you very much, CDBJ |

You won't get any argument from me on this point. Apart from Jesus Christ we have nothing and therein lies all my hope. People can talk about God till they are blue in the face but until they come to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as the Son of God they are out in leftfield; and you can go to the bank with that!

1378 | Can you lose your salvation? | Revelation | CDBJ | 45660 | ||
My sentiments exactly, I didn't do anything to get it, so how can I do anything to lose it; and besides all that God the Father has given me to his Son, I belong to him and I am sure that he is able to keep track of and keep something that belongs to him. John 6:39 (KJV) And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. Brother, that's you and me! I have had pets that have wondered off on their own and I didn't know how to find them, but the way I see it, God doesn't have this trait, of not having control of his things to the point that he loses them.

Yes and appart from all this if they don't trust in the finished work of Jesus Christ and believe in him they are still going to hell and this isn't my idea it's what the Bible teaches. Do you disagree with this, that all I am saying. CDBJ | ||||||
1380 | Bronze snakes? | 2 Kin 18:4 | CDBJ | 45560 | ||
I think that we spend too much time telling people that they are saved when they arn't. They believe they are saved because we tell them so. It should be the Lord telling them and then they would know for sure because he says so in His Word. Faith in Jesus has to be alive an personal not just a meaningless ritual! 1 John 5:10 A He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: Someone once said, "If you were ever arrested for being a follower of Christ, could they find enough evidence to convict you, and going to church doesn't count?"
