2901 | Marriage as a Covenant Relationship? | Eph 5:32 | Searcher56 | 206925 | ||
son of god, God does say for a woman to love her man (Titus 2:4). Your thinking that it is an admonishment does not remove it as a command. Searcher | ||||||
2902 | Worthy of Honor but not of Respect | Eph 5:33 | Searcher56 | 65709 | ||
Word study ... Phobeo and Timao ... Mommapbs, greetings. Once again English translations lead to misunderstanding ... Phobeo (Strong's Number: 5399) means "to put to flight by terrifying (to scare away)" ... and in this case to reverence, venerate, to treat with deference or reverential obedience" ... I don't think you should be afraid. The same idea is carried elsewhere (Col 3:22; 1Pe 2:17; Rev 14:7, 15:4, 19:5).. Timao (Strong's Number 5091) used in 1 Peter 2:17, means to honour, to have in honour, to revere, venerate. They are two different words in the Greek. Steve PS A husband is to love his wife, even if she doesn't do her part. Read the book of Hosea. The wife, likewise is to do her part; no matter whather husband does ... as we all are. Our actions should not be dependent on other men. Searcher |

2903 | Rabbi Mark, can you explain this verse? | Eph 5:33 | Searcher56 | 65855 | ||
Are you a rabbi? If so, how? You said ... "The definition is exactly as I stated in my previous post." ... Yet, I only see you talk about fear. As you pointed out we have more than one word that we call fear, from the Greek. You said ... "You don't think anyone should be afraid. That is what you think." ... That is not what I said ... I am not sure where you got that. You said ... "We should not fear death. We should not fear evil. We should not fear the temptor." ... Please cite Scripture. You said ... "I am saying to fear with awe -- not with paranoia." ... Eulabeomai may be the word you are thinking of, since phobeo and phobos gives a different view. We get our word phobia from this. Even when you cited the Greek definitions, show that there is more than one meaning. Which I already pointed out. Searcher |

2905 | How should fathers treat their children? | Eph 6:4 | Searcher56 | 38182 | ||
Scripture ... Pro 13:24, Heb 12:6, Rev 3:19 ... Love and discipline go hand-in-hand. If I do not discipline my children, I hate them. Pro 13:24 He who withholds his rod hates his son, But he who loves him disciplines him diligently. Heb 12:6 FOR THOSE WHOM THE LORD LOVES HE DISCIPLINES, AND HE SCOURGES EVERY SON WHOM HE RECEIVES." Rev 3:19 'Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent. Searcher |

Michael, You did post in the correct place. I forgot to commend you that you are praying. My daughter and I have problems. I need to do whatever to not cause problems. But, we need to say no ... the book of Proverbs backs me up. They will make choices ... hopefully they will come to us for advice ... we need to show them our side and even dangers of the other side. We need to encourage each other to see both (all) sides ... write it down. Steve ... Searcher78@aol.com |

2907 | Urgent and swift help needed!! | Eph 6:12 | Searcher56 | 19787 | ||
Theresa, I went back and read your original post and some of the responses. First, whenever someone says something that you think is not Bibilical, be like the Bereans and check them out (Acts 7:11) ... then even verified what Paul said. Then, if you think they are wrong, speak up. Have them show you where in the Bible they get their support. You may also know of Scripture that proves them wrong. If they refuse to listen take it to the governing board of the church ... and I think you did this. If they don't want to act or if they person doesn't want to leave, open the Bible to Galatians 1:6-10. Go back to verse 9 and say anathama and leave. I have gone this far only twice, to their shock and one is no longer in the ministry. I don't know what happened to the other. Searcher |

2908 | satan days | Eph 6:13 | Searcher56 | 102974 | ||
You said "Thus, in Luke 22, as he faced the cross, Jesus said to the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, “this is your hour, and the power of darkness“. Before that, He had been led into the wilderness for forty days, to be tempted of the devil, and now he had gone into the Garden of Gethsemane. That was an “evil day”." ... was His being led nto the wilderness for forty days evil? ... was His being tempted of the devil evil? ... was His being in the Garden evil? ... was the power of darkness refering to it being night ... since it was Jesus who said “this is your hour, and the power of darkness“ ... read the context of the passage. |

2909 | Aixen7z4 Where does it say it is his day | Eph 6:13 | Searcher56 | 103006 | ||
Scripture ... Job 1-2 (1:12, 2:6); Rom 7:14-25; Jam 1:13-15 ... Your logic doesn't prove the Bible. You still haevn't shown "this is his day" In fact Satan is limited (Job 1:12, 2:6) . Even if he is free we are the ones who choose (Jam 1:13-15) .. we wrestle (Rom 7:14-25) ... and we choose - Satan cannot force us. |

2910 | Aixen7z4, Please cite Scripture. | Eph 6:13 | Searcher56 | 103007 | ||
Scripture ... John 10:17-18; Matt 4:1-11, Heb 4:15 ... You said ... Matthew 4:1ff Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. And when the tempter came to him. The point here is that Satan had 40 days plus with him. ... Satan came to Him after the 40 days AND NIGHTS ... "and when the tempter" ... nonetheless, I don't seeing it being "an evil day", since He was victorious each time (Matt 4:4, 7, 10) ... if fact, He was tempted in every way, just as we are, yet was without sin (Heb 4:15) ... being tempted is not evil, yielding is. You said ... Matthew 16:13ff When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?” … He saith unto them, “But whom say ye that I am?” And Simon Peter answered and said, “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God“. 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“. … From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day. Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, “Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee“. But he turned, and said unto Peter, “Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men“. The point here is that Satan did not have the whole day, just a moment within it. ... Even in this passage Satan didn't have even a moment in time ... in fact John 10:17-18 proves that Jesus was in control. You said ... Rev 2:13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: I take this to mean that Satan was holding sway in that city, night and day, in that period of time. ... You need to study extra-Biblical sources. Pergamum was the official center of emperor worship in Asia. It would not be logical to think Satan was holding sway in (only) that city, night and day, in that period of time. Rev 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days. I take it that his sway would last “ten days” in that (other) place. ... How is this "an evil day"? Note ... If Satan is not bothering me, I would be worried You said ... As for the length of time he spent with Job I have no Scripture, except one to indicate it was more than seven days (Job 2:13). ... How is this "an evil day" ... how is any of what happened to Job evil? The seven days is the length his friends were with him, silent. |

2911 | What is meant by "pray in the spirit". | Eph 6:18 | Searcher56 | 80023 | ||
Justasiam, welcom to the forum. Do we pray thru the Holy Spirit or does he pray thru us? If one intercedes, isn't he between the subject and object? Us - Christ - God (Rom 8:34) ... so I see us pray thru Him. Searcher |

2912 | Praying to the Holy Spirit | Eph 6:18 | Searcher56 | 221609 | ||
Cathy, Ask your pastor why in Acts 13:2, the Greek for said is eipen not apokrinomai, which means to give an answer to a question proposed, to answerto begin to speak. Which I think would need to be the word inspired to use make prove his side. Note eipen (epo is the root) can be answer, as well as commanded and other words. Searcher |

2913 | Praying to the Holy Spirit | Eph 6:18 | Searcher56 | 221626 | ||
God's day to you, Cathy. apokrinomai is to give an answer to a question proposed, to answer to begin to speak, but always where something has preceded (either said or done) to which the remarks refer http://www.biblestudytools.com/lexicons/greek/kjv/apokrinomai.html ... if you enter answer in the search window, you'll see other Greek words. For eipen, go to http://biblos.com/acts/13-2.htm ... select 2036, where you'll see epo ... with a list of related verbs ... there 613 occurrences of eipen. A primary verb (used only in the definite past tense, the others being borrowed from ereo, rheo, and phemi); to speak or say (by word or writing) -- answer, bid, bring word, call, command, grant, say (on), My Greek is not good ... but I think my choice is sound. May the words you say and mediation on your heart be acceptable to the Lord, Searcher |

2914 | how to handle controlling attitudes | Phil 2:5 | Searcher56 | 215444 | ||
God's evening to you, sista Donna, Let God be in control and listen to others. There is need for unity and even the leaders need to not wanting to be in complete control (Eph 4). The Holy Spirit gives us the spiritual gifts He wants us to have. He even adds gifts or changes and takes them away. We each have one or more gifts (1Co 12). We should never let the gifts control us.
