821 | Is it wrong to date non-christians? | 2 Corinthians | kalos | 161232 | ||
The contrast is not between inspired teaching and uninspired teaching. "(7:12) In vv. 1-12 the contrast is not between inspired teaching and uninspired teaching, as some have supposed. In vv. 10-11 Paul is repeating in substance something already taught by the Lord; but in v. 12 he is dealing with a situation not covered by our Lord's teaching. Instead of disclaiming inspiration for what he writes in v. 12, the apostle is actually claiming for his own words here the same authority as for the words of Christ Himself" (note at 1 Cor 7:12, New Scofield Reference Bible, Oxford, 1967). 1 Cor 7:12 "*I...say.* Not a denial of inspiration or an indication that Paul is giving human opinion, but simply a way of saying that Jesus had not spoken on this and God had not previously given revelation on the matter, as Paul was then writing" (p. 1738, MacArthur Study Bible, Word, 1997) The following was originally posted in a Note by the user Makarios: 'Nelson's Study Bible simply puts it this way, "I, not the Lord, say: Paul now presents a problem that was not addressed by Jesus. Sometimes a husband or wife would become a Christian, but the spouse would not. Paul exhorts the believer to remain married if the unbelieving spouse does not want to divorce." 'Ryrie's Study Bible states, "7:10-11 According to both Paul’s and Christ’s teachings (Mark 10:1-12), believers should not divorce. If separation does occur, the believer must either remain unmarried permanently or be reconciled permanently. '7:12-13 These verses deal with marriages in which one partner becomes a believer after the marriage. I say, not the Lord. I.e., Christ did not give any teaching concerning spiritually mixed marriages, but Paul does, and his teaching is authoritative. Such spiritually mixed marriages are to stay together if at all possible."' |

822 | He believes in God not Jesus, is it ok? | 1 Cor 7:12 | kalos | 161231 | ||
Actually Paul, writing under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, IS against a Christian marrying an unbeliever. Grace to you, Kalos |

823 | Was Judas Iscariot a believer? | Matt 5:13 | kalos | 161228 | ||
Exactly! Judas himself CHOSE to betray Christ. No one - neither God nor Satan - forced Judas to do something against his will. Grace to you, Kalos |

Aliennow: You're welcome. Glad I could be of some help. Suicide is definitely a sin. ("Thou shalt not kill.") The question is this: Is suicide the unforgivable sin? I do not believe it is. These two web pages give the scriptural reasons why suicide is not unforgivable: www.carm.org/questions/suicide.htm www.gotquestions.org/suicide-Bible-Christian.html Grace to you, Kalos |

Knowers or believers? Or both? ...for I KNOW whom I have BELIEVED and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day. 2Ti 1:12b NKJV (Emphasis added.) |

828 | did Jesus die for our sins or sickness | 1 Pet 2:24 | kalos | 161100 | ||
In general, there are two major approaches to forming our beliefs. One is to read the Bible, accepting what it actually says and teaches. The other is to start with a preconceived notion of what we believe and look for a verse here and a verse there to prove it. Each of us should ask himself: Which approach do I use? Grace to you, Kalos |

831 | heaven is perfect but we live on earth | Mark 10:21 | kalos | 160946 | ||
Instead of telling other people, "You need this" and "You need that," you yourself need to back up what you say with scriptural evidence -- not just a verse here and a verse there taken out of context. This forum is not for quibbling over who is right and who is wrong. When you make an assertion, it's up to you to provide the evidence to back it up. Stick with your subject and drop the personal remarks to the people who reply to you. You needn't judge whether they have the Holy Spirit to the same degree that you think you have. Grace to you, Kalos |

832 | heaven is perfect but we live on earth | Mark 10:21 | kalos | 160927 | ||
I have a lot more to say about this, but it is hard to get it across to you since you've picked up this bad habit of not listening. 12 By this time you ought to be teachers yourselves, yet here I find you need someone to sit down with you and go over the basics on God again, starting from square one--baby's milk, when you should have been on solid food long ago! 13 Milk is for beginners, inexperienced in God's ways; 14 solid food is for the mature, who have some practice in telling right from wrong.

833 | Born again through the Word of God | 1 Pet 1:23 | kalos | 160910 | ||
Man says: "Saying the bible has saved us is like saying to the person who witnessed to us saved us." But God says: NASB 1 Peter 1:23 for you have been born again not of seed which is perishable but imperishable, that is, through the living and enduring word of God. AMPLIFIED 1 Peter 1:23 You have been regenerated (born again), not from a mortal origin (seed, sperm), but from one that is immortal by the ever living and lasting Word of God. |

Yes, I agree that "people get interpretation and application mixed up." Sometimes people get truth and fiction, reality and fantasy mixed up. Grace to you, Kalos |

I'll tell you what is plural and not singular in 1 John 2:27. '"You have no need for anyone to teach you." Both "you's" are plural and refer to the believing community as a whole; there is no ground here for a hyper-individualistic understanding of the Gospel wherein the views of other believers and the gathering of believers together are considered unimportant' (Jewish New Testament Commentary, David H. Stern, Jewish New Testament Publications, Inc., 1992). I didn't say that everyone who says Lord, Lord has the Truth. What the quote says about 1 John 2:27 is: 'Both "you's" are plural and refer to the believing community as a whole...' They refer to the BELIEVING COMMUNITY as a whole. |

In 1 Cor 2:10-12, notice the repeated use of the plural pronouns: "us" and "we". God has revealed them to "us" (plural), not "me" (singular). That we might know the things...given to us. Again it is "we" and "us", not "I" and "me". |

My interpetation MUST be the right one Many hold to the strange notion that: The best way to interpret the Bible is to read the text and whatever comes to mind first must automatically be the right interpretation. No hyper-individualistic understanding As for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him. (NASB) 1 John 2:27 '"You have no need for anyone to teach you." Both "you's" are plural and refer to the believing community as a whole; there is no ground here for a hyper-individualistic understanding of the Gospel wherein the views of other believers and the gathering of believers together are considered unimportant' (Jewish New Testament Commentary, David H. Stern, Jewish New Testament Publications, Inc., 1992). |

Of course, you are not such wiseacres... ____________________ "It seems odd, that certain men who talk so much of what the Holy Spirit reveals to themselves, should think so little of what he has revealed to others." ____________________ "In order to be able to expound the Scriptures, and as an aid to your pulpit studies, you will need to be familiar with the commentators: a glorious army, let me tell you, whose acquaintance will be your delight and profit. Of course, you are not such wiseacres as to think or say that you can expound Scripture without assistance from the works of divines and learned men who have labored before you in the field of exposition. If you are of that opinion, pray remain so, for you are not worth the trouble of conversion, and like a little coterie who think with you, would resent the attempt as an insult to your infallibility. It seems odd, that certain men who talk so much of what the Holy Spirit reveals to themselves, should think so little of what he has revealed to others." -- C. H. Spurgeon |

Waterrose: No problem. You're welcome for the quotes from the ASV and the other two literal translations. Glad they were helpful. I have found that a literal translation is often useful in trying to get at the meaning of a verse. Grace and peace, Kalos |
