1181 | what man or who is luke talking about? | Acts 17:31 | CDBJ | 37565 | ||
Hi JMSCOTT, lets come at this verse in Acts from a little different tack. Lets start with John 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: This is in reference to Jesus, so that mean that all judgment that is talked about with man being judged, the one sitting in the judges seat is the God man, Jesus Christ. Acts 17:31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. He hath appointed a day is also found in 2 Thes. 1:6-10 Seeing 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; 10When 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. The man he hath ordained, that is John 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: He hath given us assurance because he raised him from the dead. Romans 1:4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: 1 Thes. 1:10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come. Hebrews 13:20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 1 Peter 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 1 Peter 1:21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. If it still doesn't sound clear get back with me, CDBJ |

1183 | Paul is commanded to wash away sins? | Acts 22:16 | CDBJ | 78025 | ||
Hi Joe.I think the real problem with some people is found within 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. Some people are missing that which it takes to understand what is being told them, because their receiver isn't working right;the power hasn't been hooked up yet. CDBJ |

1184 | ROMANS STUDY | Romans | CDBJ | 27601 | ||
Welcome Zion, I like the name that you are using. Is there is any possessive connotation to your name? God tells us that in order to exercise faith no mater how small, one must believe that God is and that he is able to perform what he says he will do. Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. The (he is,) in the verse is the (one and only), the ever existing one. In your comment that God must be the (one and only) does the phrase, Adonai Eloheinu, Adonai Echad, mean anything to you? Just curious, CDBJ |

1186 | what is true church | Romans | CDBJ | 174967 | ||
Greetings Lenpaul, The answer to you question: The context of II Thes. 2:11,12 is found in what precedes those verses. Starting in verse 9 of that chapter and speaking about the timing of the Lord’s return or what is commonly referred to as the rapture 2 Thes. 2:9-10 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, [10] And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Do you know about the love of the “truth” that it speaks of here and why those unrighteous ones mentioned will perish? CDBJ |

1188 | What is a "spiritual" act? | Romans | CDBJ | 184913 | ||
Greetings acm, With regards to you statement, “I think that when we act in the flesh it is just a act.But when we are in the Spirit,it be comes a Spiritual Act.” What actually constitutes being in the Spirit and not in the flesh and how do you know for sure when this condition exist? John 15:5 "I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me, and I in him, he bears much fruit; for apart from Me you can do nothing. CDBJ |

1189 | What is a "spiritual" act? | Romans | CDBJ | 184940 | ||
Greetings acm, Taking all that into consideration when is it then that some function, as you yourself suggested, in the flesh? In other words, how can one distinguish if someone isn’t just putting on a big act in order to get money from those listening? Titus 1:10-11 (NIV) For there are many rebellious people, mere talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision group. 11They must be silenced, because they are ruining whole households by teaching things they ought not to teach--and that for the sake of dishonest gain. The previous verses said “especially” but not entirely. Do you think it’s possible that maybe some of those TV types might play on people’s emotions? They sure know how to make all the proper noises but many don’t expound on Bible doctrine and it sounds like a bunch of hype. CDBJ |

1190 | What is a "spiritual" act? | Romans | CDBJ | 184966 | ||
Hi acm, I don’t like to mention any names as such I was just speaking in general terms the way Paul did. Titus 1:10-11 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: 11Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake. There must have been spiritual actors in Paul’s time as well. Galatians 1:6-9 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. If I were going to speak in generalities the way Paul did I would probably suggest most of the TBN showman bunch that stand on their experiences and feelings more then sound Bible doctrine. 1 Thes. 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Then there is the ploy where they start marching around the stage and shouting and rolling their eyes heavenward, that always an attention getter. Or they may expound on the personal revelation that God spoke to them as though they are something extra special. They seem to always get a better connection and a clearer understanding when people send in more money. Acts 20:28-31 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. 29For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. 31Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears. There are many precious believers that fall for that kind of stuff and even after being warned. Ephes. 4:14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 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 |

1191 | An interesting discussion/question | Romans | CDBJ | 204994 | ||
Hello Jamison, If I am reading you right are you telling us that you believe that Jesus is the way the truth and the life? Do you also believe the rest of the verse that says, “No man cometh unto the Father, but by 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. Just curious, CDBJ |

Thanks Jamison for the response, I would like to read your take on the word "faith". As it is used in the following; Ephes. 2:8-9 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9not of works, lest anyone should boast. And do you think it is scriptural, or possible, for a person to have faith in more then one object and still be able to claim the everlasting life that resides only in the person of Jesus Christ? 1 John 5:12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. John 3:36 He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." CDBJ |

That was an interesting post and when we look at it that way the same thing was reflected in the life of Christ, he said in essence that the price was paid and then he died physically; his work here was completed in the physical body. John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. CDBJ |

Tim, now you are even getting my interest up with that statement. We could elect a Forum Pope! I more or less stay out of the A and C debate as much as possible because neither one has ever been proven, or this debate wouldn’t even be going on. The idea of a Forum Pope might work though and just think of all the money the forum could make charging for each post? Do you think though that after a while we would quit using the Bible as our source of information and guide and depend on him for truth and guidance: we could call it excaforum. |

1195 | How can you prove God exists? | Rom 1:20 | CDBJ | 175589 | ||
Hi djktk and welcome to the form, I have found that most who claim to be atheist are really agnostic; the just don't have a personal knowledge of God yet. If a person will be honest with you they will admit that they don’t know all that it knowable in this world. And there is somebody out there somewhere that knows a little something that they don’t have any knowledge of. If they will give you the benefit of stable reasoning then maybe you can point them in the right direction. God tells us that we are all dead spiritually and he is the only one that has the ability of communication with us on spiritual matters. Have you every tried to get a psychically dead man to do something when you talk to him; kind of a waist of this isn’t it? 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. All people were or are dead spiritually from the point of physical birth and can’t understand the things of God. God can and wants to prove his existence to the world but the world keeps stiff arming God, as it were, just like a runner when playing football. God speaks through his word, the Bible, and if a person “really” wants to know if God exists then get them to read the Gospel of John. “But”, before they do, tell them to ask God to reveal himself to them while they are reading his words. “If they are serious” and really want to know, God will do his part and show them the truth about himself, and they will have a personal experience with the living God. Hebrews 11:6 (B) for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. The truth about God is contained in his Word. If one is willing to believe what God say in his Word, God says that he will free them. John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. God can free those that are dead spiritually from the grip that death has on them and they can be a changed person, if that’s what they want and they would like to live the abundant life. John 10:10 (B) I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Hi MD, That was a very informative post, you seem to know the Bible pretty well! Do you think you could take a few minutes and fill out a little something, in your “User Info” in the Resources section?

1197 | What does Romans 2:1 mean. As Christians | Rom 2:1 | CDBJ | 199573 | ||
Greetings, I believe it helps when we stop and realize it’s the old sin nature within us that produces the overt action of an actual sin; when our volition gives in to temptations and none of us are secure from the problem until such time as we will be removed from the flesh; by death or the rapture which ever occurs first. 1 John 1:7-8 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. Paul himself realized his shortcomings with the problem: Romans 7:24-25 Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death? 25Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, on the one hand I myself with my mind am serving the law of God, but on the other, with my flesh the law of sin. The recipients of the righteousness of God in Christ have the evidence of two natures, as it were; but only one is in control at any given point in time. Ephes. 4:30-32 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. 32And be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you. The exercise of 1Jn. 1:9 eliminates a host of problems before they get too far out of hand. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Have a great day, CDBJ |

1200 | Who is the "you" in Psalm 5:5? | Rom 5:8 | CDBJ | 42338 | ||
Since David is the writer of the Psalm is he, according to your answer talking to himself, since (you) is in the second person singular, I think not! Did you read the first four verses before you gave your answer? Psalm 5:1-5 For the director of music. For flutes. A psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my sighing. 2Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray. 3In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation. 4You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil; with you the wicked cannot dwell. 5The arrogant cannot stand in your presence; you hate all who do wrong. I think you better give it another shot it's pretty obvious who the YOU is. |
