261 | will we die if we charge interest? | Deut 23:20 | New Creature | 50570 | ||
I agree, we have to separate needs, such as food, clothing, shelter, from wants. 1 John 3:17 But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels [of compassion] from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? 18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth. and also: James 2:15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be [ye] warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what [doth it] profit? |

262 | When were we a Christian Nation? | 2 Chr 7:14 | New Creature | 107942 | ||
Greetings Hank; Your reply, especially where you stated; "Has this nation slipped so far on its banana peeling that it will never again find the anchor that its Christian roots gave it? Is there a point of no return for a nation and has this nation reached it? Will God remove His protective hedge?" Brings to mind the following Scripture. 2 Tim. 3:1-7 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. It appears at least to me from Scripture, that the nearer we get to the end, the further removed from God people and society will be. So the downward spiral away from God shouldn't surprise us, because we are told of it actually happening. Shalom New Creature |

263 | don'y understand your answer | Job 1:6 | New Creature | 180740 | ||
I have seen the following verse used in support of the idea that God cannot look upon sin. Hab 1:13 Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he? |

264 | What did you learn today? | Ps 119:11 | New Creature | 41677 | ||
Thanks Love Fountain, concerning your comment: "May you be born from above and blessed by the word of God." I can assure you that I truly have been born again, or born from above, which ever you prefer, and I am a Child of God, and also that His word has been a blessing to me and continues to be, Col 1:9 I, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness; 12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: 13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated [us] into the kingdom of his dear Son: 14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, [even] the forgiveness of sins: God Bless you |

kalos; The only name attached to the quote I found was H. Moore. I couldn't say for sure whether or not it was Holmes Moore. I'm sure it's possoble. I never heard of Holmes Moore myself. I do however get Adrian Rogers and David Jeremiah daily on my local Christian radio station. I like to listen to Ravi Zacharias program entitled "Let My People Think" which airs each Sunday morning in my area. Grace and Peace New Creature |

266 | Predestination | Eccl 6:10 | New Creature | 197465 | ||
Doc said: "According to the apostle Paul, God 'works all things according to the counsel of His will' (Ephesians 1:11). Paul said all things; not some things or even most things but all things." This is one of the few times I have ever seen someone of the Reformed faith say that "all" really does mean "all" and not some. Doc; I hope you are consistant and believe "all" in each of the following verses means "all" and not some. John 12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto myself. 1 Ti 2:4 who would have all men to be saved, and come to the knowledge of the truth. 1 Tim 2:6 who gave himself a ransom for all; the testimony to be borne in its own times; 1 Tim 4:10 For to this end we labor and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of them that believe. Tit 2:11 For the grace of God hath appeared, bringing salvation to all men P.S. before you ask, no I am not a universalist theologically speaking. Let me close with this quote from an Early Reformer named Zanchi. "God doesn't decree which individuals will be saved, but rather decrees what sort of individuals will be saved, namely believers in Christ Jesus." Yours in Christ NC |

Doc While I appreciate the fact that you took the time to compose a lengthy reply, it doesn't specifically address the main question I asked you in my previous reply, which was whether or not you would be willing to remain just as consistant in how you interpret "all" (pas) when it comes to the other verses which I posted in my last reply to you, as you were in your one post to rachellynn.

269 | So how do you hear God's voice? | Eccl 7:17 | New Creature | 135949 | ||
your welcome joy; One other suggestion on hearing God's voice. Someone has said: "In order to hear God's voice, first turn down the world's volume." We live in such a busy fast paced, noisy world these days. We need to get alone in a quiet place, and spend time alone with God in prayer and in His word. New Creature |

271 | How did sin originate | Is 14:12 | New Creature | 43941 | ||
But if Lucifer was created good originally and there was no sin, what then was the process which caused Lucifer to commit the first sin? | ||||||
272 | How did sin originate | Is 14:12 | New Creature | 44081 | ||
Robert, thank you for your well thought out reply, along with the way you used the Bible to support your position. I think your answer was very helpful to me. The following verse which you posted reenforced my belief that Lucifer was created perfect. Thou wast upon the Holy mountain of God; Thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in all thy ways from the day thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. Ezekiel 28 :14-15 And we know that this being, which was created perfect, was the originator of sin, and in fact is called the father or author of lies. So if Lucifer was created perfect, then Lucifer must have been created by the Sovereign God with the "free will" of choice. God must allowed Lucifer and the 1/3 of angelic beings to exercise their God given right to choose to either obey or disobey. And Adam and Eve must of also exercised their God given freedom of choice to disobey God in the Garden. I think you helped me think this through, although that raises more questions in my mind, like, after the fall in the Garden, does mankind in their fallen state, still possess a God given ability to choose right or wrong, or was that lost in the fall? If you would like to help me with this question also I would appreciate it very much Again, I thank you Robert |

277 | Does God choose us? | Jon 2:9 | New Creature | 193470 | ||
I would like to make a comment on a portion of your Mark Webb quote. Webb stated: "If you perish in hell, blame yourself, as it is entirely your fault. But if you should make it to heaven, credit God, for that is entirely His work!" So let me see if I understand If you are saved, it's entirely God's doing, and not to your credit at all. If you are damned, it's entirely your own fault, and not God's fault at all (even though God controls everything). |
||||||
278 | Does God choose us? | Jon 2:9 | New Creature | 193530 | ||
If God is truly in control of all things, then he must cause every event, be it human or otherwise. And if He controls every event including the choices people make, then why are humans found at fault for choices which were beyond their contol to begin with? |

My posted notes have raised theological questions, but I don't see how they could be said to be unamicable. I haven't called anyone names or labeled anyone who disagrees as teaching that which is false. I believe my questions have been respectful and honest. I don't personally know in what manner I have not kept up my end of the agreement to remain peaceable in discussing a few of the more difficult theological question that often arise. Isn't that why this forum is titled STUDYBIBLE forum. Isn't that what we are currently doing? | ||||||
280 | Saved from sin? | Matt 1:21 | New Creature | 104682 | ||
Mommapbs; Thanks I typed it in a hurry, I didn't have much time. So here it is the way I intended it to read Someone once explained it to me this way: "We have been saved (past tense) from the penalty of sin, which is called justification. We are being saved, (present tense) from the power of sin, which is called sanctification. And we yet shall be saved, (future tense) from the presence of sin, which is called glorification."
