Hank:-) Greetings from the fine state of Missouri! Up here in the Ozarks we say "Birds of a fearher don't flock appart." At least as far as my family goes. You all have have to think about stepping outside the box. I especially thought your response about the JW and stating how the Forum is under the watchcare (that's a good SBC saying) of proven sound Biblically mature Christians was very well stated. I am proud of your kind direct way to put it down and not changing the standard of excellence in the Forum. Blessings to you my friend. justme |

Hank: You bring to my memory a very sad thing that happened to a member of my congreation of the first church I pastored. A retired couple who lived in the small town, a farming comunity, of Turney, Missouri were faithful "seed planters" of Orals. Their idea of helping build this hospital that Oral said was there to help supporters, was that if there ever came a time they need help it would be there for them. This couple gave more than 18 thousand dollars! I became aware of their support for Oral, because this couple called me for help. They told me how she had a kidney that had stopped functioning and needed to be removed ASP. They had contaced the "City of Faith Hospital" and were told if they had insurance they could come. Their faith was nearly destroyed! They were hurt beyond what you could imagine. Together we got her on welfare and she had her kidney removed under special help to older people with low incomes. They had sent Oral their money they had saved up for retirement! To here you say the "the City of Faith" is a wasteland is no suprise to me. I can assure you that God will watch over His own, and provide for them. I also can be sure that those who say "God said thus" and it just ain't so, will be judged. They do reap what they sow. I and many others who have seen people like Oral, and A. A. Allen and the like can testify they do fall and it is not a pleasant. One cam recall Jimmy Swaggart's huge minisrty, and remember his fall. My prayer is that each of us that have anyone watching our live would be an example to attract others to Christ. Blessings to you Hank..Uall! justme |

784 | What is iniquity in Matthew 7:23? | Matt 7:23 | justme | 74125 | ||
giboone: Having read this very long thread that you have noteworthy been involved in, I for one find your theology and Biblical knowledge quite remarkable. I made some observations that stand out rather clearly to me about you, in your notes and responses to others. Clearly you do not except what the book of Acts says about Peter and the sheet, and that all living things were now to be eaten. In your notes to Hank, you showed you are able to defend your opinion with a well crafted and thoughtout opposition. I find it odd that with your knowledge of Scripture you still consider yourself a truth seeker. Clearly the knowledge you have did not come about in a short duration of study. The evidence of Biblical knowledge you display shows much study and reasonong have taken place in your heart and mind. There is little doubt in my mind as to you stand on the questions Hank and others asked you, it was clear to me,after reading all you notes. Greg, the thing that stands out so transparent is that you have head knowledge beyond most who call themselves Christians. Which I humbly but have no reluctance in making it clearly understood. Greg as you know the thing that is clear, what you do not have is genuine love for other believers. Christ said that Love would be one way to tell believers in Christ by, was their love for each other. Greg, there is more than enough knowledge to get what you need to become born again. However, if you are so determined to defend your unorthodox beliefs about keeping the law over accepting the Grace and Mercy of Jesus Christ who has set you free if only you would come out of the life of living under the law. Seldom does someone of your deternation and knowledge make the step of faith into wisdom in Chist. You have my sincere pity, for you have head knowledge, but you heart is hard, and you may be so smart that child like faith may be impossible for you, that Greg is very sad. You well may be too smart and wise in your own eyes to see you have become futile and foolish in your search for knowledge you have'nt found the TRUTH AND THE WAY.....Jesus Christ. Peace. justme |

785 | What is iniquity in Matthew 7:23? | Matt 7:23 | justme | 75091 | ||
giboone: The correct translation is HOLY SPIRIT, there is really no such thing as ghost in the NT. I will state you are more educated in defence of your religious ideas than almost anyone I have seen recently in our forum. However, being well educated in Biblical knowledge does not mean you have saving faith. I belive you have said faith based on works and keeping ritual, but you appear to be quite unorthodox in your understanding of what Christ is and has done. I am sorry for you. You have come to many wrong conclusions, and my deepest sympathy is extended to you. God have mercy upon you. I really have nothing much left to say. justme |

giboone: I got your last note first, and then this one. I will respond that Several have tried to say Greg you are headed toward a cliff. However you are so strongly self assured that you can not hear a word that is being spoken. I would say it appears you are unteachable, and you will most likely Find the Forum to be frustrating for you. Again I say with respect and kindness there is nothing else for me to say. justme |

In the Andes: Hi friend, justme again. I don't agree we should mainly study Oomans to Jude. You leave a huge hunck og the "GOOD NEWS" out. I would point out that the Sermon on the Mount is a crutial instruction for us all. Again what would we do with out refering to John Chapter 3. I have known Christians who would argue the very opposite that the first five five books of the NT are the most importany. I think the NT is exactly as God intened.... all to be read in context. agape, justme |

McGracer. I agree with you. However I can remember going in to the Navy in 1964 and the Giddeons gave me a New Testament, which I carried several years. Every man who will take one is offered a NT. Is that not significant? The NT has the total plan of salvation. I dare say if we just handed out Old testaments you would see many come to Christ. I am just trying to make a point. The testaments make up a wholr. agape, justme |

Hank: Now I want to "side bar" with you here. I can not stand, actually sit, by and let you claim all the credit for being so dismally ignorant. I have long considered that when it comes to being ignorant that I am sure I am far more ignorant than you! I am not sure if I am close to first or last plaace. Perhaps most ignorant would be the place in which I am not to far from. Now please remember ignorant is not related to stupid. Stupid means you won't or can't learn. Ignorant is you are unaware, or don't have full knowledge. So please save some honor for me! I am sure after two or three decades more I will be up to the ignorance level of some of our more educated Forum writers. So please be patient with me. You see I am where you were a long time ago. I hope that finding the most ignorant person in the forum does not become a low, high place to be. Maybe this note will spur a whole new long series of notes? agape, justme |

I am some what confused by your response. However I do agree any man or woman who is a Christian and makes a covenant will be accountable to God for it. That Conenants are nothing to be takenin jest. agape, justme |

791 | freely YOU have recieved... go do likewi | Matt 10:8 | justme | 63023 | ||
teragram123: I genuinely enjoy your posts, notes, and questions. Would you consider doing me a personal favor? If you would take a little time to fill something out about yourself in the Upedate User Info, I would really like to know about you. You are interesting and this would help us all. Now about "ministries" charging fees or price amounts. I have seen the cost od church summer camps go up so high that when I a pastor I could not afford to send my own kids! That broke my heart, and my children missed out on what I enjoyed so much in my growing up. I would like to share with you a ministry that has been a part of my life from 1956 to now. This ministry has never asked for a dine. They have followed me while in the United States Navy to all the places I have lived. This ministry has kept me in Gods Word and given me encouragement, and even admonishment when I needed it! The ministry is OUR DAILY BREAD. produced by RBC Ninistries. I was 11 years old when it first came out. I have recieved it with out fail all these years. My life has been blessed. I mentioned this ministry because we all too often focus on people or ministries who do not walk by faith, and it is good to hear of some who do really have a free ministry. In our country now, there are a lot of people who are without jobs, little food, poor housing, and lack needed medicine, or medical attention. I think the odds are we may well see these people with serious needs become overwheling. We may see some of these "ministries" that have expensive luxery automobiles and their own jets, begin to fall by the wayside. We may actually find needs so great that we can not bypass or ignor the poor, as some may be those who "charged for ministry" who's huge incomes dryed up. Now that is something to think about. justme |

792 | Did Jesus ever drink wine? | Matt 11:19 | justme | 215884 | ||
Vintage68: The wine that Jesus drank was totally different than what the wine made today is. The wine at the time Jesus lived was diluted from a concentrate about 4 parts of water to one part of wine. You would have to consume a lot to feel much of the effects. You would be water logued if you drank that much diluted wine. Jesus would never comsume anything that the religious leaders could point to as sinful, and they be correct. I have heard so many weak willed drunks use this verse that Jesus drank wine and thus it was ok for them. That's pure hogwash. There is no reason to drink the wine made today when there is such great grape juice. This is especially so if our drinking wine should offend anyone. justme |

MJH: I see Searcher gave you some places to check out. There are many places to look the wine fact is widely known. I hope this adds to your growth. Blessings. justme |

Morant61: Brother Tim, in 3,000 sermons You are able to track you messages much better than any other Pastor I know of. Congradulations you can't have ADD and do that, I admire your organization skills. I have mostly preached book by book. I am under the understanding that by doing book by book you eventually cover everything, and no one can say you are preaching at then alone and their sin. I have found it is amazing how often the Holy Spirit uses the Word to reach those who need just that message at that time. If some who find fault at how preachers preach I would like to see how they suffer in preparing to bring forth the Word God has directed us to preach. Never did I feel I did enough preperation, Sermon preperation is the hardest work there is to do. Blessings Pastor Tim. justme |

795 | What exactly is this Unforgivable Sin? | Matt 12:32 | justme | 109434 | ||
Searcher56: I respect your responses, and notes, I find you are a right to the point kind of person. May I offer a suggestionplease? I say this with kindness and respect fora Brother in the Lord. Perhaps saying this has been discussed before might be true, but not for that person. Often some subjects are repeated several times a year. As there are new people signing in evey day, and though you and or I have discussed the subject, it might give a growth oppertunity for others to dialogue on the subject. Perhaps holding off on saying this has been discussed before might encourage others to chance to add to the dialogue, and even put information in a better format. I say this with kindness and concern, not out of any way of putting anything you have said down. Blessings. justme |

796 | Unpardonable sin | Matt 12:32 | justme | 143812 | ||
Hank: My study of Scripture in relationship to the "unpardonable sin" has boiled down to one conclusion, and that is to reject Jesus Christ, and to remain in that belief at the time of ones death. A person who so rejects the Holy Spirit's pleading to make Christ Lord has blasphemed the Holy Spirit. Is this not what you have saiid? I believe satan uses this topic to cause believers to doubt the "sealing of the Holy Spirit" upon us as the mark of Jesus Christ's ownership of us. Then again this also points us to the "eternal secuurity of the believer", at least from my Baptist point of understanding of Scripture. (I am not trying to push my theological view point on anyone) My belief is that only at ones death is the sin "unpardonable". Would you not agree? Blessings to you Hank. justme |

797 | Unpardonable sin | Matt 12:32 | justme | 144020 | ||
Hank: Thanks for the note, and I am glad you brought this to my attention. I Think perhaps I should explain further. I am coming from the understanding that a person can receive Jesus Christ even upon ones death bed. At least I hope so, as I have led a few to Christ within a few days and hours of their death. Up and until that point of receiving Jesus Christ they were unsaved with no doubt. If they would have died without receiving Jesus Christ then they would have been guilty of the unpardonable sin of deliberately rejecting the Holy Spirits pleading to receive Jesus Christ. That is why I said until a persons death, their sin is yet forgivable, upon death there is no hope, and their sin is unpardonable. Does this help clear up what I said? I hope so, but please let me know if you see it some other way. The Lord is so good to me, I can't count the many ways He shows me that He is in control every step and every second of the day. I have been especially blessed to be more aware of how sacred the time we have on this earth, and with our loved ones. No matter what medical procedure we endure, it is only tempoary in the spam of eternity. I praise God for the gift of life here, and the true GIFT of ETERNAL LIFE. I also am really blessed to live in Missouri. You may not know that the Garden of Eden was located in Independance, Missouri, at least accroding to the RLDS, and the LDS churches. What a thrill to know this. Blessings to you Hank. justme |

798 | Unpardonable sin | Matt 12:32 | justme | 144024 | ||
Ray: Good to hear from you, how are you doing? As for you note I could not have expressed what you said any better. I totally agree, and what you have said is almost word for word Scripture. I fail to understand how Ephesians 1:13-14 is not proof positive that we are saved for eternity. That is such a powerful blessing that God has given us! Blessings Ray. justme |

799 | Unpardonable sin | Matt 12:32 | justme | 144029 | ||
Hank: I have no doubt that you think the Garden was in Arkansas, and that Walley's World is next to the being almost as big. What about my explimation of what I hoped help clear up my first note? justme |

800 | Unpardonable sin | Matt 12:32 | justme | 144088 | ||
EdB: I am not sure where you could find Scriptual proof for that. However, If some think the Garden was in Missouri then who knows, why not start something new to make a buck. Does this mean I can bottle the Missouri river and sell this muddy stuff? Blessings. justme |
