st.john: Have you ever thought about why we say "pray harder"? I have used that therm for many years. But one day I heard someone say that and it just did not add up. Is prayer hard? Maybe a better word would be pray more intentionaly? Maybe you can come up with a better term? Blessings. justme |

John: I was attempting to say that the word hard has tow different meanings in paryer. I think diligently or fervor is a much better wording to ask people to do. May I say to pray for that man you spoke of is very "hard" in reality. I can't imagine the pain and anger your family has been in. I do not know how a person lived and moves on after such a difficult situation. You are a follower of Jesus that shows for sure. Blessings. justme |

1268 | Define 'spiritual death' | 2 Cor 5:21 | justme | 83120 | ||
Graceful: With due respect, your theology is a real eclictic. No, most mainline Demonations do not believe Jesus went to hell! The bosom of Abraham was not the hell fire and eternal seperation that the unsaved go. In no way do accept that Jesus was seperated from the Father at anytime! Jesus was proclaiming He had fullfilled Psalm 22. Jesus was perfect. and did not sin. He bore our sins on the cross, by His Blood we are saved. I don't believe anyone on earth understands the Trinity well enough to explain it so clearly they can say this is the triune God. At best we fumble around using examples that fit within the scope of our earthly minds understanding. Duet. 29:29. I only know that all three are one, with destinct personalities. What ever that means. But when Jesus was on the cross the Three in one were all there. Jesus said He was in the Father and the Father was in Him. The Holy Spirit presense was there in the supernatural taring of the vail in the Holy of Holies, and the earth quake and the opening of the graves. I have no human wisdom to explain the Trinity. Do you honestly believe God would allow a created being (satan) to torture Jesus who by Him was everything created by, and without Him was nothing made. Col.1 I am not tring to make you upset but this is a very serious point of that the Godhead is over all, and would not allow satan to torture Jesus Christ. Peace. justne |

1269 | Define 'spiritual death' | 2 Cor 5:21 | justme | 83163 | ||
gracefull: I do understand your question. Jesus did physicaly die, as the death we die now. That is not "Spiritual death". Romans talks a lot on the second death which is "spiritual death" this second death is for those who have rejected Jesus Christ. Jesus did not suffer "spiritual death". There are those in the Word of Faith movement that teach this doctrine. I don't believe the Word of Faith movement is a demonation in the same way as Lutherians, Southern Baptist and the like are. I do believe it is growing at a rapid pace. Which from my perspective is a serious concern. We have been over that, and I do not want to bring resentment to the surface. All I can say is The Bible by it's self stands, and anything that does not fall in line with Scripture I reject. I wish for peace. justme |

1270 | I need help on how to tithe. | 2 Cor 9:7 | justme | 183227 | ||
Kalos: Your post brings to mind a thought I have never really come to a solid conclusion on, your or anyone elses opinion is welcome. For a person who is married and has say two children and is making just a dollar or two above minimum wage. For that person ten percent represents a lot more than sau a person making fourty thousand a year. I have believed more in sacrificial giving. Often I have heard of some who had to make a choice of not making a payment of giving. Some have even gone and given a "seed faith" (WOF) and still fell farther behind, and blamed GOD for not blessing them. I personally have a huge problem with those who give to get back. That is in my understanding of Scripture is not Biblical. I Pastoredthree churches that were in relatively poor comunities. Sometimes people coming to the church for assistance in utilities or food from the Deacon Board, made more money and had much more that me and my family, there was a total of six in our family. There were times that the Mission support funds were increased every year, but my salary was not increased in three years. I made know how difficult making our minimum budget. The blessing of the way Lord was to see how He used other people outside the church to help without being asked. These people were amazing in the fact they were used and blessed because they were sensitive to the Lords leading. I am sure that there are many Pastors that feel that the priority of caring for the Pastors needs are less important than the Missions fund or some other fund. Me and my wife, when budget time comes for the church, always make a suggestion that the pastor gets a raise. Because of what we experienced, we are more aware that the pastors needs must be a priority. I believe there is nothing more hurtful as to not show financial appreciation to the Pastor. We also experienced one church that went way overboard to make sure our needs were ment. There were only about 25 members, and were the most caring, loving people we have ever ministered with.

Doc: The father of the boy that this happened to was a pastor at the time, of some sort. I think this too speaks a lot about the fathers lack of belief and trust in the Bible. Thanks yor your reply. justme |

1272 | Should women be allowed to preach? | Galatians | justme | 50114 | ||
Dear srbaegon: What does you name stand for? The name is an interesting word. But back to your answer. When does culture and scripture conflict? Why not have women cover their head? Why allow women to speak in church today? Why not stome adulter's? My point was the verse in Timothy was directly related to the culture at that ime. Give it some thought. Galations 3:28 might have some impact on your thinking. I just wanted to add a tid bit to stir up some gray matter. agape, justme. |

Dear BradK: Should we bring back the thousand of women missionaries who have preached all over the world? Ther are teams of women serving all over the world wher men can't be found in large enough numbers to send. In America for more than 200 years there have been women preaching and pastoring. I prefere a man pastor my self. However, have you ever heard Dr. Billy Graham's daughter speak? Do you think that the culture of biblical times was inspired as the word is? I think our culture has educated women, which was most certianly not the case back at Pauls writting. If the church today depended upon men keeping it going it would fall appart. Many churches are supported by as much as 75 percent women. Re-read Gal.3:28. Do you not read there is neither male of female in heaven? Is not our Father God neither male or female, sexually, but complete in and of the Faters self? I just wanted you to see it in a new light. agape, justme |

Daer Srbaegon: I appreciate your explanations. Y respect your views, you come accross as a gentle soul. I respect that you practice what you say is your views. What you say and do are not in conflict. That I admire. I also practice what I believe. So we ar both children of The King and with that we shall have fellowship. Neither of our views are unorthodox. I am very close friends with Amish, and Menonite wher we live. We do not agre on many things but Jesus is our Lord and with that we focus on what we do agree. I am sure we can also. agape justme |

Dear Scribe: Brave soul, I am so proud that you can put into words much better than I have been able to. I am deeply wounded by the mean things I have gotten by meeeen and women who differ from my views. The love of Christ for women, and the fact that we are co-workers is totally ignored by some. Women are not second class humans or christians. I am a man and I am supprised that we agree. Thank you you have lifted my heart. Today was a real slammer for me. so bless you. agape, justme |

Dear William: I prefer a man pastor, not because women are not Biblically permited. I have a hard time because so many men will not support a woman pastor. I think you have the family, and culture and abortion, deadbeat dads and adultery, kinds thrown together in one pot. Where does the call of God enter the picture? How about a husband and wife as co-pastors? That protects men from counseling women ond visa versa. We live in very difficult times and perhaps things will soon get much worse. I believe each of us should spend more time praying for each other than being so critical. How anout you? aaagape, justme |

1279 | A Perversion of the Truth-Gal. 1:7 | Gal 1:8 | justme | 90406 | ||
The CurtMan: I appreciate your feed back and think I understand your point. What is so hard to pick up on in these notes that we send back and forth is the tone and the meaning behind what we are trying to conver with printed words. Wise is the person that knows what the enemy thinks and believes. When others don't care to learn what you know, it is their loss. However if I learn all I can from someone else, it is I who is by far more richer. I find it odd that there are so many that have studied cults and know how to witness to these people who are in the cults, but I see so very little results. Most churches have some kind of how to witness class each year. But little fruit seems to come from this teaching. I am not so sure little results because "a lot of Christians have a difficult time explaining the truth." Perhaps it's like trying to light a candel with no wick. Maybe we relate head knowledge rather than a changed hearts with being saved? Scripture says to renew our minds, yet I see the same old patterns live on in many of us. I think you have hit a point I can say yes this is so. Most of us do not find ways to put Scripture that we read and bring it into application. I am sure if we did the baptistry would be used every Lords day! It is hard for me to see the perspective of Christians who never witness. With that I am not sure if many Christians really know not only what they believe, but lets go further and say they may know what they believe, but not who they belive in, Jesus Christ. I stand guilty and have no excuse for my unfaithfulness in witnessing. Any thoughts? justme |

The CurtMan: Your pen name is not what you are, that's for sure. I will share a brief but serious testimony of my life right now. Quite recently I have been on the receiving end of The Lord Almighties mercy and grace. I have cancer. I am taking radiation teatments every day, five days a week. My wife drives me 25o miles a day to get these treatments. I have had very unsual, sever reactions. The pain has been beyond words. I have had 35 treatments, and 3 left to go. The doctors have said my reactions are quite rarer. In this period of teatment I have been shown great compassion, and kindness from people that have gone out of their way to help me and my wife to struggle theough this ordeal. We have found people who are open to hear about our Jesus Christ. We did nothing but be ourselves. Yet some have asked us about our faith. This has been to wonderful to express how blessed we continue to be. So in the midst of suffering the Lord is with us, and uses others to minister to our needs. This experience has been challenging, painful, and a blessing. I have never felt that I am isolated from our church or the Lord. We have concerns as to the final outcome, which we should know in 90 days if all the cancer is gone. I have a special peace that I am in the Lords direct will and no matter what the results, nothing can interfer with the love that binds to the Father. You see, I believe witnessing is done in the normal traffic pattern of our life. That I can sau works best for me. Any thoughts or ideas? Blessings. justme |
