161 | Submit . . . unless it hurts? | Eph 5:33 | glory777 | 66618 | ||
I differ with you in your opinion that the bible shows hatred for women. Rather, God shows no favoritism. Those who believe are "sons of God", men or women. Jesus used a woman to further the kingdom (the Samaritan woman at the well); when the adulteress was brought before Him, when the others would stone her (where was the man who was caught?)His answer freed her and condemned the others. It is man who added the laws to control women and the culture at that time, and even in this time in some countries who are considered second best. Look in the new testament at all the women that are commended. Each role that God ordained is important, it is the human nature that wants to put some in a lesser position than another. When a man becomes God and can see into the future as to what the result of his abuse will be, then he has a right to abuse his wife "for her own good". Jesus never hurt anyone. The man is to submit to God, he is never told to abuse his wife but to love her. Debbie |

OK all you guys- First of all, I don't think I want to rule. I love horses and I already have put in my application to clean the stables (Jesus will be riding a white horse, right?). Is the horse thing literal or not? If it is, you guys had better learn how to ride, because I think scripture mentions we will all be riding with Him when He returns to show Himself as Lord of Lords and King of Kings and takes over rule of the earth. Love you all- Debbie |

Now, I am going to ask a serious question! The falling away - is this true Christians or those who go to church but don't have a relationship with the Lord Jesus? Because otherwise we are talking about once saved always saved, etc and are going to get into another impossible discussion. My personal take on the immediate end times event is the believers at that time will be taken away, but there is enough knowledge that many who knew but didn't really understand what being saved was all about will find out real fast and then will make a decision. It almost sounds as though only the Jews will have a chance to decide for Christ during the Tribulaion. There are so many people who are church goers that know a little, have heard a little, that if the rapture happens when they see it, they will know that what they had heard had truth to it and will decide for Christ. Or am I reading to much of the "Left Behind" books? Shame on you Nolan! Debbie |

And yet, Ed, I know of people, who when the mention of Christ's returning have told me "I never heard of that". They don't see it as something that could really happen. All they see is salvation as having something to do with going to Heaven of Hell, and then don't realize that it is a heart issue. I think, when they see the people they love, who have told them what is required and they and other "fanatics" who have believed the same way are missing, they will know the truth. They know a little, but not all of the truth. Debbie |

Now we're going to get into mythology?! Pegasus, yet! It's bad enough I'm allergic to horses but now you have to go with feathers (I'm worse with them!). Debbie |

I also believe that the 144,000 who will be witnessing will not just be for the Jewish people. When you love Jesus, you don't just love a certain people group. Gentiles, I'm sure, will not be excluded from their witness. Nowhere does it say that the witnesses will be just from those in Israel, we have Jews in all parts of the world. Peace- debbie |

Everyman standing might be fighting, but what about women and children? I think there will be small groups of people who could hide out, especially if they are prepared for what is to come. If they could survive in remote parts of the world, they could be the ones who would be living during the millenium. I know it says somewhere about a person being 100 years old and considered as a child during this time, so although people may die during this time, they will be VERY old. Debbie |

169 | Women teaching or in authority | 1 Timothy | glory777 | 21632 | ||
Nolan- Seems to me that Mary was a very common name in those days, just as Jesus was. Unless specified, we can't KNOW that she was the adulteress who was forgiven. I agree that she was probably a different Mary altogether and the fact that it says that she was with the other women, followers and supporters of Jesus puts her with a group of women who would probably have lost their physical appeal on the street corner! (Sorry to all of you in that age group - myself incuded!) I don't think we are to add to scripture what it doesn't say. But she is such an example that no matter where we come from in life, Jesus can forgive, deliver, save and use us - no matter what age or social circumstance. Debbie |

AMEN!!!!! Debbie |

171 | WHY COULDN'T THE RIGHTEOUS | Heb 13:2 | glory777 | 20549 | ||
dltlshines- I can't help but think, when in the presence of our King, the things that we do for good will seem so trivial to us before Him, that it will be He who will call them to our mind. What a wonderful God we have. Debbie |

172 | Why is marijuana use prohibited? | Heb 13:17 | glory777 | 68130 | ||
jini- Some major problems with your thinking on this subject. In scripture it tells us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor.6:19) also that we should have self-control(2 Tim3:3) and slef control is one of the fruits of the Spirit. Genesis 2:9 says God gave the plants for men to use as food - not to get a buzz. Being with God could not be topped, nor could it be inhanced. It was when Satan got into the picture that things that were meant for our good got messed around. And it was when man gave into him that people turned from looking to the natural (or I should say Supernatural) high, which is having fellowship with God, to what they could misuse what the Lord put on this earth. I've been there. When people tell me how beneficial it is, I also know what a load of garbage they are trying to delude people with, along with deluding themselves. Debbie |

Blessings, Tim - I'll be praying for your daughter and you and your wife. Don't ever let anyone buy into the argument that pot doesn't lead to other drugs, either. I know. If you are around people that use pot, you eventually will come into contact with the other stuff. It isn't hurting them (yeah, right) so it is OK for me. Etc. Etc. Just keeps getting deeper and deeper. My heart goes out to you, and to anyone that has to deal with the problem. Debbie |

174 | Is God ONE or is God THREE? | James 2:19 | glory777 | 36052 | ||
Prove all things- If that is true, then why is the Holy Spirit capitalized? If He is just a power, as electricity is a power, then why was he shown descending as a dove, a seperate entity, over Jesus when He was baptized? It was at this point when all three members of the Trinity were present at the same time. Debbie |

175 | Isn't the computer bad? | Revelation | glory777 | 16853 | ||
Ed- If the bible says the mark or number of the beast is 666, the way my computer has been acting lately - it may fit! Debbie |
||||||
176 | What is 666? | Revelation | glory777 | 23290 | ||
EdB- No, the bible does not mention computer chips, neither does it say that it will be written on the hand or forehead in indelible ink or tattooed. We just don't know. Even if John was shown one in his vision, how would he describe it? However, the invention of chips gives us just one more possiblility of how it could be done. Revelations also does not mention satelites and TV, but how else could people all over the world see the witnesses lying dead in the street for 3 days and then being taken up? Again, not to say that that is how it is going to be seen, but it gives us one way that it could be possible that was not available not too many years ago. Which brings me to the point - watch and pray!! More things are available in our "natural" world that makes the things written in Revelation something we can imagine happening without using a lot of imagination! Debbie |

177 | and a jezebel spirit..? | Rev 2:20 | glory777 | 16542 | ||
Blessings, Cate- Also note that Ahab gave up his authority of being the leader to Jezebel. In many marriages of today, the Jezebel spirit is alive and strong, with the woman doing and using everything in her power to take over the male leadership role. This is totally going against the will of God, as Jezebel did then. Debbie |

178 | what does rev6.6 refer to | Rev 6:6 | glory777 | 17036 | ||
According to the notes in my bible, "a denarius was the daily wage for a laborer, which ordinarily would buy eight times the amount of wheat and barley as under these conditions. The oil and the wine, symbolic of luxuries, likely means the famine is viewed as limited. It does not depict worldwide rampant starvation." From the Spirit filled Life Bible. Inflation to the max. Debbie |
||||||
179 | who are the 144,000 | Rev 7:3 | glory777 | 72516 | ||
Another explaination I have heard is that the 144,000 are actually Jews (12000 from each tribe of the 12 tribes of Israel). We have to be careful and realize that some things are symbolic but not all things have to be and that some things that we take as literal do not have to be. A lot in Revelation we will just have to wait and see which interpretation is correct!:) Debbie |

180 | Does this mean that it is wrong to ask? | Rev 17:16 | glory777 | 59896 | ||
Man, I'm sorry I even answered this the first time and got the ball in a "spin"! Eschatology is an important part of the bible. We are to be prepared for what is to happen, know the signs to watch for and I believe it will be perfectly clear when it does - no debate neccessary. The book of Revelation especially comes along with a blessing for reading it(Rev. 1:3)so we should study it. We should know the order of things, even if they are not things we understand now. There is enough in the prophetic books to let us know the season is near but to guess at what specific roles certain leaders or countries will play in it is setting us up for ridicule. Pastor Glenn, you pointed out the hatred toward Christian missionaries, etc. Again, I could point to Hitler - who many thought was the antichrist - who hated Jews, Christians, etc. and set up means to try to eradicate them all. They were wrong, as we know. Other times in history, events made it seem as though the times were right. Now we see a lot more in our technological world that makes sense of the things written in Revelation. So, I do believe the time is nearer. But there are still things we do not understand, and until we do, I think we should pray about these things, keep them in our minds, keep our eyes open, do the work the Lord has for us now, and wait for the total revelation to be revealed to us. PEACE to you all- Debbie |
