641 | Jesus and Children as Paedobaptism? | Mark 10:14 | srbaegon | 207356 | ||
Hello tumbleweed, The presumption was based on a speculative idea that the passage was dealing primarily with salvation, which it is not. As for why I directed bowler to a paedobaptist, I am credo-baptist and cannot fairly relate the doctrine. Steve |

Hello bowler, It is a lesson on faith and humility which Immanuelsown mentioned. Steve |

643 | heaven is perfect but we live on earth | Mark 10:21 | srbaegon | 160937 | ||
Hello pako, Can God kill or smite his children with sickness? Yes! 1 Cor. 11:27-30 (ESV) Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord. [28] Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. [29] For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. [30] That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died. Steve |

Hello Child of light 777, "The angel of our blessed and beloved Adonai Yahoshua (Lord Jesus) has told us that He recommends this method as well…" Who is the angel that you speak of? Also, I went to the website: http://www.proclaimtheword.org/index.html. The author (presumably Reuben) claims to have received a prophetic warning. If this is truly from the Lord, then it needs to be added to the canon of Scripture immediately as a 67th book. If it is not, then it must be condemned as false prophecy. I doubt it is truly prophetic because the author is ashamed to give his name. Someone with the true word of prophecy would not hide his identity. None of the old prophets intentionally hid their identities even when they were under condemnation of death. Steve |

645 | child of light 777, did He die on Thurs? | Mark 15:42 | srbaegon | 145957 | ||
Hello Child of Light 777, You stated that an angel of the Lord Jesus has communicated that learning for yourself is the best method. That is simply not true for the Lord himself gave the best method--discipleship (Matt 28:19; 2 Tim 2:2). Obviously, the angel was lying and is therefore not of God. You say to test the spirits. May I recommend that you do the same of this "angel?" As for prophecy, may I remind you of 1 Cor 13:8? Prophecies will pass away. Obviously, they were still active during the the writing of Paul's letter, therefore the command to pass judgment on what was given. Steve |

Hello child of light 777, I know the context of 1 Cor 13:8, and it isn't the Lord's return, but frankly, this is an aside to the real issue--you are following a deceiving spirit masquerading as an angel of the Lord. You do not seem to understand the concept of discipleship. The Lord uses human agents to teach his word rightly. One person teaches another from generation to generation. A direct link to the original disciples is not required. Lastly, I'm sickened by your false humility. The pride and arrogance that spews forth from the post I respond to. In what way? Bragging on your percentage of giving and worshipping the Hebrew language. Steve |

Hello child of light 777, You are not the first to accuse me of unbelief after I have pointed out an error. I can handle it. Your interpretation of 1 Cor 13 is known to me, but there are other opinions I consider more valid. Steve |

648 | child of light 777, did He die on Thurs? | Mark 15:42 | srbaegon | 146001 | ||
Hello child of light 777, You are correct that I do not see your "selfless work for the Kingdom" as you have not shown any to me, nor could I see it unless you were here with me. But notice, here you brag about your selflessness. I end all my posts the same way whether friend or foe. Now who is being unloving or unkind? I do not attack the Lord's angels. I attack deceiving spirits. Steve |

649 | child of light 777, did He die on Thurs? | Mark 15:42 | srbaegon | 146031 | ||
Hello child of light 777, You asked: "Would you also ask for proof...of angelic visitations from all throughout the Holy Scriptures, who have clearly documented such visitations, or that the Prophets were truly speaking the Word of God, before you would believe them or give them credibility?" Of course not. But my source for those is the inspired word of God and not someone listening to unnamed spirits. For what it's worth, we take great pains to help babes in Christ. You don't fall into that category. Lastly, if you want to interact with BradK, you'll need to answer his post directly. Steve |

650 | child of light 777, did He die on Thurs? | Mark 15:42 | srbaegon | 146036 | ||
Hello child of light 777, I will reword my response. I do not need any other proof of angelic visits mentioned in Scripture because it is the word of God, and his word is true. You, on the other hand, have mentioned a supposed angel who has counseled you in the best method of studying the Scripture--to do so without the encumberance of other godly men but to rely solely on the Holy Spirit. Yet this method of exclusivicity is not taught in Scripture. We are instructed to seek wise counselors. The method put in place by the Lord Jesus--discipleship--requires one person to instruct another in the ways of God. I must therefore conclude that the "angel" is a deceiving spirit. Steve |

651 | child of light 777, did He die on Thurs? | Mark 15:42 | srbaegon | 146057 | ||
Hello child of light 777, If the "angel" told you differently than what has been revealed by the Holy Spirit in the Scriptures, it is a deceiving spirit. Think about it. No amount of experience on your part through your visitations will move me from the firm foundation of God's word. The angel that led you here will most likely tell you that we are not worthy of you. That's how the deceiving spirits work. I hope you see the folly of where you are being led. Steve |

652 | Soul winning scriptures | Mark 16:15 | srbaegon | 213933 | ||
Hi Eric, As for scope, check out "About the Forum" in the Information box on the left. I especially would like to point out this part of it: "it's not a discussion group or topical survey, but an ever growing 'expository repository'" So the forum is not so much a place for "What motivates you?" but rather "How do I understand this Scripture in order to apply it?" And believe me, the line gets crossed rather often. Steve |

653 | believeth and is baptized | Mark 16:16 | srbaegon | 222921 | ||
Hi lightedsteps, If I had considered the Mk 16:16 baptism as mere ritual, then I would indeed be trivializing Scripture. My intent is to demonstrate that in the historical accounts, baptism and belief happened together. The decision to believe was immediately borne out with the witness of baptism. There was no anxious bench or 30-minute altar call or Sinner's prayer or inviting Jesus into your heart or other such things evangelicals say today. Steve |

654 | How can this be? | Luke 1:15 | srbaegon | 57087 | ||
Hello Ray It appears you are saying that being filled with the Holy Spirit is simply abstaining from alcohol. Surely, it's more than that. See Luke 1:41,67; Acts 4:8,31; 13:9. Steve |

655 | Please help me to find this out for this | Luke 1:27 | srbaegon | 23559 | ||
Implicit meanings.............................. You said: "Again you have a greek word "heos" (until) that does not necessarily mean that after a certain point in time, a different action occurred. See Matt 1:25, 1 Cor 15:25." I disagree. The word "until" specifies a condition that was or will be met. When that condition is satisfied, there is an implicit change in action, status, relation, etc. If I say, "I did not have sexual relations with my wife until we married," must I explicitly state that we did after we married? No, because this is a normal action among married couples. It is inferred or implicit in the statement. No less is true of Joseph and Mary. It would be unbelievable to think that nothing happened between them throughout their marriage. Steve |

656 | Mary and Joseph | Luke 2:5 | srbaegon | 220539 | ||
Hi Aileen, Scripture tends not to dwell on the ordinary course of lives. That is why so much attention is given to the miraculous circumstances of Jesus' birth bu not the mundane things concerning their marriage or early family life. Had they not been married, this would have been scandalous and greatly inhibited the Lord's later ministry. As it was the ruling Jews tried to make an issue of the virgin birth in John 8:41 with a partially veiled insult. [Jesus said,] "You are doing the works your father did." They said to him, "We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father—even God." Then in verse 48 that add to it: The Jews answered him, "Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?" They were insinuating that his mother had an affair with a Samaritan or Gentile, and Joseph married her possibly out of pity. Had any of this been true, the whole ministry would have been in question because Jesus was claiming God as his father. Steve |

657 | How can God (Jesus) increase in wisdom? | Luke 2:52 | srbaegon | 47155 | ||
Hello bob r. Christ can increase in wisdom because He took on flesh and blood. Jesus as fully God and fully man had to enter into all those things that are human. Hebrews 2:17 (ESV) Therefore he had to be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. Note: "made like his brothers in every respect". And-- Hebrews 5:8 (ESV) Although he was a son, he learned obedience through what he suffered. The knowledge and wisdom must have been experiental in His earthly walk. Steve |

658 | Christ- wisdom increasing or reputation? | Luke 2:52 | srbaegon | 47287 | ||
Hello bob r. Luke did indeed tell us Jesus' reputation was gaining as in Luke 2:52 (ESV) And Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature and in favor with God and man. I think both are true. Steve |

Hello DocTinsograce, I tend to agree with your opinion. Acts is written as narrative. We are not given a judgment on the correctness of choosing Matthias, only the fact that it happened and the reason for it. Steve |
