281 | Is Jesus Angry everyday? | John 3:16 | humbledbyhisgrace | 181713 | ||
Greetings shing! As a matter of fact, yes I do love to learn the word of God and I can understand your joy found in His word and in Him! Mind if I ask what you learned about God's anger from this verse? You said you were surprised so I'm curious if you understand that God's anger is a righteous anger not to be confused with the unrighteous variety we as sinners sometimes have. God bless and stay in the word with me and the other brothers and sisters in Christ. One day we will see the Lord God and stand before Him and worship Him together! Amen! Until then, we will read His word and learn all we can from His written word. By Faith, Steve |

Greetings once again shing! Thank you for your blessings and yes, I am too thankful for all the Lord God has done for us and continues to do for us. I have to say though, I fear your teaching for yourself and for others you may teach this to. Based on your statement "Those are the sinners my friend. Praise God I am not a sinner." what would you do with this passage of scripture? 1 John 1:8-10 (ESV) 1:8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1:10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. Who do you think 1 John was written to, believers or none believers ? (Believers!) Also, consider 1 Corinthians 3:1-3 (ESV) 3:1 But I, brothers, could not address you as spiritual people, but as people of the flesh, as infants in Christ. 3:2 I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for it. And even now you are not yet ready, 3:3 for you are still of the flesh. For while there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh and behaving only in a human way? The above passage is written to believers (See 1 Corinthians 1:2). 2 Corinthians 7:1 (ESV) Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, bringing holiness to completion in the fear of God. Again, the above passage is speaking to believers, yet evidently believers still contending with sin. There are other scriptures as well which speak to believers yet believers with sin found in them. For your consideration! God bless, Steve |

Greetings shing! You said "What I would do with 1 Cor is first of all know what Paul writing about and why. These are spirital babies, who have allowed sin in the church. Paul is trying to counsel and discipline God's children that haven't grown up yet." Would you agree that these "spiritual babies" are Christians, born again believers every bit as much a child of God as you or any other child of God is? You said "2Cor Pauling is defending himself and telling the church to grow up and act like mature children of God without sin like we are suppose to be." Again, are these not believers, born again children of God Paul is speaking to? shing, if these are born again children of God which the scriptures clearly say they are do you still maintain the believer does not sin? By Faith, Steve |

Shing, You have an interesting approach to discussing the word of God for a sinless person. You make the point I am trying to make to you. You make a false claim you cannot back with scripture. When confronted with scripture you fail to address it, i.e. you are not willing to be taught by scripture. You instead do as you accuse me of doing and that is, you reject the clear teaching of scripture. You are the one who chooses to pick and choose the scriptures. If not then why do you continue to avoid the scriptures presented in this discussion? I don’t wish to play games with God’s word. There are more then enough people out there twisting it and playing with it as if it’s a toy. I believe it to be the very word of God given to mankind. I am humbled by it, awed by it, amazed at it, ever trying to learn and understand it, but I refuse to play games with it as I believe we are to respect it and seek to learn and understand it and to help others to do so as well. I make no claims to be the authority over it, but I grow tired of so many so called “sinless”, “Christian” people and their games. This forum is intended for Bible Study. We as brothers and sisters in Christ may not agree on everything but the intent here is to study and discuss the word of God. It’s not a stage for false teachings. By Faith, Steve |

shing, I think you mean Proverbs 22:24 (ESV) Make no friendship with a man given to anger, nor go with a wrathful man, I'm sure that was just a typo but I wanted to add the correct scripture reference for others that may read along :-) By the way, I'm not angry. I was only trying to discuss the word of God with you. It is good for brothers and sisters to discuss the word of God and help each other understand. For one, none of us know it all so to conduct oneself as if they do is helpful to no one. There are many who read along with each post so it is good to ensure we do the best we can to accurately teach and discuss the word. And when another brother or sister points us to scripture that clearly teaches something different then what we are teaching or believe to be true we must be willing to forego our pride and accept the truth taught in scripture. If you disagree with a teaching then your disagreement should be backed up with scripture in order to bring out the truth. Even then we (the brothers and sisters in Christ) still may find ourselves in disagreement. However, I believe that God will bless us through our honest attempt to understand His truth and will lead us into that truth as we all continue to seek it. As I said, I'm not angry so please don't confuse what I say as anger. I have tried to discuss the word of God with you, I have also read your post to others. You come across as if you are unwilling to be taught by scripture. I pray that is not true but so far it appears to be so. By Faith, Steve |

286 | Why Did god call jesus his begotten sun? | John 3:16 | humbledbyhisgrace | 209257 | ||
The Son is not an Angel! He is God the Son! Angels are created beings. Created by God! Note that even the passage you point to teaches who did the creating! See John 1:1-3 also. He is not the FIRST son of God, He is the ONLY begotten Son of God! (John 3:16, John 3:18). He was not "founded" as you say, even the scripture you point to shows that. Jehovah Witness teach it like you do. Are you a Jehovah Witness? Steve |

Mark, Scripture does not teach Jesus the Christ, the only begotten Son of God was created! None of the passages you reference teach this and indeed no passage of scripture will teach it. Hebrews 1:3 says that He (Jesus) is the "radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature". Exact representation does not allow for the concept the He was created. In fact, to be the "exact representation" clearly proclaims the deity of Jesus. John 1:1-3 should help clear this up for you. John 1:1-3 (NASB) 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 1:2 He was in the beginning with God. 1:3 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. The Word spoken of here is Jesus the Son of God and it clearly says the Word was God. Verse 2 clearly tells us He was in the beginning with God. All things! Don't miss this! ALL THINGS came into being through Him and nothing came into being but through Him. He did not create Himself! Scripture clearly teaches that Christ Jesus is indeed God. He God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are eternal. From eternity past to eternity future Christ Jesus was and will be! Hope this helps. Steve |

Greetings Brother Tim! This is an excellent post! The way the question was ask and the gracious way in which it was answered speaks volumes in my opinion. Sorry my opinion doesn't count for much but that's all I have to offer :-) I have a lot of it though ;-) There is much more taught in this little interaction then just the answers that were given. Praise God! Great example Brother! Your Brother in Christ, Steve |

Greetings Carol, Welcome to the Study Bible Forum! They were made clean by His blood! (Revelation 1:5) Read verses 13-16 to get a better understanding of what He was doing / teaching. The text does not allow for your interpretation. God bless, Steve |

Matt, You sound as one who has never dealt with any of these false teachers? For your edification, I pointed the user to the web site of Matt Slick (Christian Apologetics and Research Ministry) which is one of the best apologetics sites on the web. Brother Slick has dedicated his time and efforts to the ministry of apologetics and freely shares the information with others. It's a great site for equipping the saints to understand the biblical truths and the many false teachings out there. Steve |

Your welcome DW! By the way, Val pointed out another web site. See her post for details! I was just checking it out. Never been there before but so far I really like it. I would say it's another good one for you to reference! Steve |

Val, I like the site you referenced. I had not been there before but I like what I've seen so far. Thanks for the link! Steve |

Well Matt (?), based on your post it was the most logical assumption. There is plenty of information on the web regarding apologetics. Many good sites have already been recommended in this thread. Spend some time checking them out. They can do a much better job for you then I can in explaining apologetics. By the way, you remind me a great deal of bowler. Your writing style, argumentative personality, understanding of sola scriptura, apparent method of interpretation, context, etc... Did you use to hang out here on the forum as bowler? Steve |

296 | No Fruit? | John 15:8 | humbledbyhisgrace | 205385 | ||
John 15:8 (NASB) "My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples." The desire is to bear much fruit! The question is, if we find ourselves in a place where not much fruit or perhaps no fruit is being produced that perhaps it is God's way of telling us to move on? Steve |
||||||
297 | No Fruit? | John 15:8 | humbledbyhisgrace | 205387 | ||
Sorry, I posted as a note instead of a question. Disregard this one! Steve |
||||||
298 | No Fruit? | John 15:8 | humbledbyhisgrace | 205438 | ||
Doc, I think I understand what your saying. And in fact, I was thinking in the broader since of the meaning. The desire to bear much fruit is to do more. Grow as a disciple of Christ. Not only in my walk, but in His work. But isn't there a broader meaning to bearing fruit? Would we not see others not only becoming disciples of Christ but growing as disciples of Christ? Steve |
||||||
299 | No Fruit? | John 15:8 | humbledbyhisgrace | 205439 | ||
Jeff, "Deeper consideration of why there is little or no fruit would require evaluating our own obedience and participation. " I agree. But considering the measure, in all my walk I have always found myself to fall short. This is part of the struggle! Yes, move on can be either or both :-) Steve |
||||||
300 | No Fruit? | John 15:8 | humbledbyhisgrace | 205445 | ||
Val, It seems to me the fruit could be considered in a broader context. Not just us growing as disciples, but also as you have pointed out. Part of being a disciple is preaching the gospel which we know is the the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes! Amen! Steve |
