761 | how many years did it take | Gen 6:14 | CDBJ | 140232 | ||
Hi Brad, Couldn't it have been 120 years since the Bible doesn’t have to be progressive? Genesis 6:3 And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. Once man’s flesh is destroyed his residence on this earth ceases. Man’s soul is eternal but his flesh subjects him to an earthy state. By God sending the flood, 120 years from this pronouncement, He would destroy man’s flesh and commit man's soul to an imprisonment. 1 Peter 3:20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. Many try to say that the verse in Gen. says that a person can only live to be 120 years old, which has been proven false because people have lived longer then that and God doesn’t make mistakes. It’s only several verses late that God tells Noah how to prepare the ark as the provision to escape the flood. I personally think, as result, Noah was 120 years building the ark. CDBJ |

Greetings Greentwiga, Are we to concur that you are writing a book with conclusive evidence of your finding and that all of the other biblical historians are way off base, with their erroneous calculations? Seeing that you are outnumbered by the biblicist that hold to the view that the Garden of Eden was located somewhere in Mesopotamia, or what today is known today as Iraq; what are the chances or odds that you are wrong? Every biblical scientist has given the odds of their calculation and they are more then anxious to reiterate their exact calculations to verify their hypothesis: please give more details, this could be interesting! Have a nice day, CDBJ |

Hello greentwiga, Did the “scientists” come up with this idea, “That the Garden of Eden was in Turkey”, before or after they tried to convince everyone of evolution? I personally would have been more impressed if it was a Biblicists that figured it out, but apart from that; how did they come to this conclusion, which I realize would be extra biblical? CDBJ |

Hi Russ, I have read numerous translations of the Bible and the salvation message is relatively clear in all of them. When it comes to other doctrines in the Word, or deeper things, some are misleading and are bad translations. When it comes to conveying the message of Christ to average English speaking people or the Gospel, the Koine English, or common English, of the New Living Translation is hard to beat but there are places in that translation that miss the meaning, of what the Koine Greek actually says. Here is an example of my favorite verses of Scripture. 1 John 5:10-13 (KJV) He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. [11] And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12] He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. [13] These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. 1 John 5:10-13 (NLT) All who believe in the Son of God know that this is true. Those who don't believe this are actually calling God a liar because they don't believe what God has testified about his Son. [11] And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12] So whoever has God's Son has life; whoever does not have his Son does not have life. [13] I write this to you who believe in the Son of God, so that you may know you have eternal life. These verses are very precious to me, CDBJ |

766 | WHERE are they taken? | Luke 17:36 | CDBJ | 140027 | ||
Hi Doc, I assumed that you checked most of the popular commentaries, but then I am not sure what you have available to you? Look what I found in one of the first ones I checked! Hard Sayings Of The Bible, “Where there is a dead body, there the vultures will gather” means in effect “Where there is a situation ripe for judgment, there the judgment will fall.” That must be the blind squirrel and the acorn concept, but you still might want to check out pastor Thieme, or as some of us call him, “Didaskalos”, CDBJ |

767 | WHERE are they taken? | Luke 17:36 | CDBJ | 140009 | ||
Hi Doc, I know I heard Bob, pastor Thieme, teach what I have commented on with connection to Luke 17:36 and the Hebrew idiom. I was under his teaching for close to 25 years and he has thousands of hour of studies on tapes, since he has held services six days a week for over 50 years, but to put the exact time and date on it escapes me. Pastor Thieme speaks fluent Hebrew and Koine, along with several other dialects of Greek. Billy Graham once made the statement, “Pastor Thieme is one of the best scholars alive in the United States when it comes to the Hebrew and Greek of the Bible.” When one is on the back side of sixty, as I am, the old computer just doesn't work like it did when I was in my thirties. I sure wish I could help you more but if you would get a hold of them at Berachah Church I am sure the could pinpoint what was taught and even send you the tape. I wish I could do better, CDBJ |

768 | Prove "Greatest...moving of the Spirit" | John 2:1 | CDBJ | 140008 | ||
Hello diasperio, There is a verse that claims the following, 2 Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: If I am reading it right it state the everything that we claim, isn’t inspired by God, but what the Bible claims is inspired. If you would please support your claims with Scripture we would be more then interested to hear what you have to say, otherwise what you say will fit into the following category; and it won’t be looked up or read unless you write it all out! Proverbs 16:25 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. The Bible clearly shows that the best interrupter of Scripture is Scripture it’s self. Psalm 119:160 (ASV) The sum of thy word is truth; And every one of thy righteous ordinances endureth for ever. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Greetings Kalos, I know we both hold the same view with respect to the rapture and Jesus had just finished His dissertation of what we call the rapture starting in verse 20 of Luke 17. The ones taken are the believers, to meet the Lord in the air, and the ones left will face the wrath of God which begins with the seven trumpets and destruction by fire. 2 Thes. 1:7,8 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, [8] In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ The timing of this situation is listed in the same chapter. 2 Thes. 1:10 (A) When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, It is also expounded on in, 2 Thes. 2:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, Those left will face God’s wrath of fire the way I see it.

Hi Jeff, I agree what you are saying in Matt. Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. The big problem is man doesn’t know where everyone is and he can’t get the job done sufficiently, but there is someone who can, the Lord and His wrath will follow right after all the nations have heard His message; this is the final chance for people to trust in the Lord and to praise Him for who and what He is! Rev. 14:6-7 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, [7] Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. The previous two verses are the execution of exactly what Jesus was saying in Matt. 24:14, only with more details given on exactly how the gospel will reach everyone. CDBJ |

773 | when will the rapture take place | NT general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 139893 | ||
Hi Jeff W, Many think that the tribulation period is the wrath of God, which believers won’t endure and that’s true, but I see the tribulation period as mentioned in Matt 24: as the vengeance of the adversary which believers have been suffering for a long time only then it will reach Luke 17:26-30 And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. [27] They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. [28] Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; [29] But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. [30] Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. When Scripture says every eye shall see Him, it’s going to be believers and unbelievers; we, believers, will be looking up for deliverance and the unbelievers are going to be looking for a cave to hide in because God is going to clobber them! God is going to flash out of the darkness of the clouds, that have just been instantly rolled up like a scroll, that have been covering the Earth for days. When it starts it's going to happen so fast that it's incredible. I believe that the rapture and the wrath of God will be back to back events occurring on the same day and that is what the previous verses about Noe and Lot are telling us. Noe and Lot represent believers, they and them represent unbelievers. CDBJ |

Greetings kw5kw, and welcome to the forum. I was saved reading a Douay Version of the Bible but shortly there after I started reading the KJV and all of the verses that I have memorized are from the KJV. We use the NIV in the church that I attend but if “I” were to pick a single version, that I like best, as far as being the closest to the actual meaning of the originals, it would probably be the ASV. I don’t know what it is about the KJV with me, but I guess the old saying applies, “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks”. I have to laugh to my self some times in church because a lot of the pastors get going, and even though we are looking at a particular verse of Scripture in the NIV, they will quote from memory the KJV with out even realizing it. When I get down to serious study I use about 10 different translations and even the Koine Greek, to get a better understanding of certain words. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Hi Hank, You make me laugh because I was thinking the same thing; the only difference is I figured that the poor guy must have cut up a bunch of verses out of his Bible then put them in a hat, picked them out with his hands over his eyes then typed them out for the forum! 2 Tim. 2:15-16 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. [16] But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. What a shame I hope he ment well, CDBJ |

Hi Ray, There isn’t a capital letter large enough to cover the respect and glory that is needed with regards to God The Father and His Son, my Lord Jesus Christ!!! These post are falling in along the lines of those the say that some have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior but they haven’t made Him the Lord of their lives yet. We can’t make Jesus Lord of anything, He is what He is and there is nothing that I, or anyone else, can do that is going to change it. Those poor people are living with delusions of grandeur, if they think God the Son isn’t the Lord of their puny miserable life! It’s a good thing that God has a great sense of humor or we would all go home the minute after we trust in Jesus for our salvation! John 10:10 (B) I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. Who is making Jesus the Lord of their life in this next verse? Hebrews 12:6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. I appreciate your gallant effort, but I personally believe that there are much bigger fish to fry, CDBJ John 4:35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. |

Well Ray, since I’m not writing a new translation of the Bible and I don’t throw any weight around in Washington anymore, you are beating a dead horse. You are casting in a pond that doesn’t have any fish in it if you catch my drift. You would be better off talking to King James if he will answer your calls! CDBJ |

Yes, you are absolutely right, but one must realize that God has revealed more to some then to others, and that’s why Paul was in such a big hurry to get out of here! 2 Cor. 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Paul saw some things that would blow our minds! 2 Cor. 12:2-7 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven. [3] And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) [4] How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter. [5] Of such an one will I glory: yet of myself I will not glory, but in mine infirmities. [6] For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me. [7] And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure. Time here on earth is but a diagonal scratch across the lengthy line of eternity, CDBJ |
