521 | infant death | Is 7:16 | srbaegon | 127626 | ||
Hello DBR, I agree they have need of judgment. The point I'm making is that they made their choice while living. Infants who have died cannot fall into this judgment because they are unable to make the choice. Steve |

522 | infant death | Is 7:16 | srbaegon | 127658 | ||
Hello DBR, Wouldn't it be far more loving of God to just take the infants into heaven? If He allowed them to grow up, they might reject Him. But let's be Scriptural. There is no passage that plainly states that those who die too young are resurrected and allowed to grow up enough to make the choice either for or against God. Steve |

Hello DBR, 1. You cannot just put any two verses together. That's bad hermeneutics. 2. The Jews understood about the final resurrection--some to blessing and others to judgment. I have no argument with that. 3. I also agree that God promised that the righteous would inherit the land and live in it forever. But the original disagreement was you stating that an infant that died would be resurrected in order to have a choice in following God. I have asked for Scripture. You have not given it. You have only made assumptions. Please share the Scriptures that state what you have purported or drop the subject. Steve |

Hello DBR, You're not getting off that easily. All you have done is shown where there will be a resurrection. I have always believed that. Please provide Scripture that states infants who have died will be resurrected in order that they may be allowed the choice of following God or not. Steve |

525 | infant death | Is 7:16 | srbaegon | 127759 | ||
Hello DBR, I agree that there is a time when God would see them as not having the understanding necessary. I never said God would condemn such a one. I believe God will accept them as righteous without the need for being resurrected and growing up to make the choice. I'm still waiting for the Scripture that says infants who died will be resurrected so that they can grow up in order to make a choice for or against God. Steve |

Hello DBR, I believe that I understand your reasoning in this matter. Thank you for elaborating. I think what we have here is a misunderstanding of atonement. The purpose of the blood sacrifices was to cover for sin. Why? Because the person who sins will die (i.e. be condemned or judged - Ezek 18:4, 20). Those who had sinned unintentionally could bring a sacrifice (Lev 4:1). For intentional sin, there was no sacrifice. It could not be covered. Let's move now to the current era. Jesus Christ shed His blood as the final atoning sacrifice for sin. I know you believe that. So let me ask: For infants who have died, have they intentionally sinned? No. Have they unintentionally sinned? Possibly. If they have, the Lord's sacrifice atones for them. For those who have an understanding (like adults), Rom 5:9 and Rom 10:9 would be required because they have conciously sinned against God. God holds people accountable for what they know and understand. An infant doesn't know or understand much of anything. Do you understand my position now? Steve |

531 | Did the speaking in tongues end with the | Is 43:25 | srbaegon | 50243 | ||
Hello Native Christian I would say only the three gifts mentioned have ceased, because they are the only three that are mentioned as coming to an end. I used your terminology to give you an indication of when the gifts end. I believe it's more accurate to say they ended when the NT was complete. Steve |

Hello grubio Acts 2:39 concerns the gift of the Holy Spirit, not the gift of tongues. You wrote: "In church history there are various accounts of this reoccurring" Would you share some? I don't know of any before Azusa Street. Steve |

533 | Looking for a Bible verse | Is 43:26 | srbaegon | 53106 | ||
Hello Rit What about this? Luke 11:5-10 (ESV) And he said to them, "Which of you who has a friend will go to him at midnight and say to him, 'Friend, lend me three loaves, [6] for a friend of mine has arrived on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him'; [7] and he will answer from within, 'Do not bother me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I cannot get up and give you anything'? [8] I tell you, though he will not get up and give him anything because he is his friend, yet because of his impudence he will rise and give him whatever he needs. [9] And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. [10] For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. Steve |

534 | "I make peace, and create evil" | Is 45:7 | srbaegon | 65899 | ||
Hello zerotheory Goodness cannot come from someone who does not have it as an attribute of his person. Consider the following: Exodus 33:19 (ESV) And [God] said, "I will make all my goodness pass before you and will proclaim before you my name 'The Lord.' And I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy. God is good in every sense that He is love (1 John 4:16) and light (1 John 1:5). Steve |

Hello beingther, We have a problem then. The passage that actually names Lucifer (Isaiah 14:12-21) describes him as a proud, loathsome being. He was indeed perfect in the beginning but became proud. At the beginning of his rebellion, he became a liar and murderer. Steve |

537 | why say mingled with the seed of men? | Dan 2:43 | srbaegon | 133459 | ||
Hello Misty, I checked several translations. "With" is literally correct here. The consensus of the few commentaries I looked at (Matthew Henry; Jamieson, Fausset, Browns; Adam Clarke, Ray Stedman) was that the iron was a form of government and the clay was man--an attempted mighty kingdom established entirely on man's principles. Basically, it's saying that this is doomed to failure from the beginning. Steve |

538 | how can gov. minglewith the seed of men? | Dan 2:43 | srbaegon | 133473 | ||
Hello Misty, The progeny or offspring you are searching for is the (allegedly) all-powerful government that will be established from this tenuous union of system and men. It's figurative language. Think back to the tower of Babel in Genesis. It's the same type of thing on a far greater scale. Steve |
||||||
539 | how can gov. minglewith the seed of men? | Dan 2:43 | srbaegon | 133486 | ||
Hello Misty, As I've already stated, this is figurative language. For instance, I've heard people use terms like "marry the two ideas." Obviously, ideas cannot marry, but we understand it to mean that these two ideas will be brought together. It's the same way here. It's a marriage of mankind with a governmental system to make a super-power. But that super-power cannot hold together because it's flawed from the start, being based on man. That super-power is the offspring (again figuratively) of the marriage between man and the governmental system. Steve |

Hello Misty, I don't have to give what is symbolized. It's in the text--the last in a series of great governmental powers. There's nothing else to it. Steve |
