1203 | Is it easy for God to forgive? | Matt 6:15 | stjohn | 199909 | ||
WoW WOS, That's a really good question, It makes me think of someone who has probabley pondered it a little more deapley then I. God bless John Having all his life long carried their sicknesses and sorrows, he bore the burden of sin to the place of its annihilation, and by his death he made an end of it. Apart from the atonement, the chosen of God, like other men, lay under sin; the black cloud was over all the race, but Jesus took the dense mass of all the transgressions of his people, past, present, and to come, and obliterated the whole, even as a cloud is blotted out from the face of heaven. Jesus took the whole incalculably ponderous load, all charged with tempest as it was, and bore it all upon those shoulders, which must have been crushed to the earth had they not been divine: on the tree he bore that sin and the wrath which was due to it, feeling all its crowded tempests in his own soul, until in that moment when he had borne all, and ended all, he sent up the victorious shout of "It is finished." Then shone forth the unclouded glory of boundless love; then was gone for ever the threatened storm; then righteousness sprang out of the earth, and peace looked down from heaven, and the reconciled ones might well exclaim, "Sing, O heavens; for the Lord hath done it: shout, ye lower parts of the earth: break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and glorified himself in Israel." Sin was put away, transgression was cast into the depths of the sea, and loud o'er all rang out the jubilant challenge—"Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? who is he that condemneth, now that Christ hath died?" I scarcely need to sketch that experience, for, my brethren, you know it well. Oh, the blackness of the darkness above; oh, the horror of the tempest within, in the dreadful hour of conviction of sin, when my weary soul longed for nothingness, that it might escape from its own hell. Oh the dread of the wrath to come. I saw all God's indignation gathering up to spend itself upon me, but glory be to God it spent itself elsewhere! ... "The tempest's awful voice was heard; O Christ, it broke on thee! Thy open bosom was my ward, It braved the storm for me. Thy form was scarr'd, thy visage marr'd, Now cloudless peace for me." "Down, down they come, those fruitful showers! Those earth-rejoicing drops! A momentary deluge pours, Then thins, decreases, stops. And ere flee dimples on the stream Have circled out of sight, Lo! from the sun a joyous gleam Breaks forth, of amber light." C. H. SPURGEON |

Not a problem Brother. God bless John |

What you are suggesting by translating from the original here at this site would not be Greek, at best, it would be a transliteration, as the actual Greek letters are not supported by this format. So What's the point? Is there something wrong with trying to be as clear, and concise and comprehensive and, Heaven forbid, cognitive, as possible, so as to give those who come here for answers, easy to understand answers? | ||||||
1206 | How did Paul die | NT general | stjohn | 199890 | ||
Thanks for responding, Talmid sense we, at least most of us, use a translation that is not in Greek, but English, it really would be helpful to try to keep our responses in English. I don't know if you are aware of the discussion we have been having about this, but it seems that most of us would prefer that we all speak in the same language. Perhaps you are aware and this is a jab? I'm not accusing of course, but the coincidence is quite glaring. I have read about six deferent translations of the Bible and they all use Paul, and, I think they all can be considered reliable. Thank you. |

John 2:13-15 The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. And He found in the temple those who were selling oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers seated at their tables. And He made a scourge of cords, and drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen; and He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables; It looks very much like He is not being too kind or compassionate. passionate yes, compassionate no. Matt 7:23 "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; DEPART FROM ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.' It looks very much like He is yelling. And, it looks like He is condemning. And again. John 8:44 "You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies. Doesn't look too much like He is dealing with these too kindly. We need to be careful with our assertions. :-) |

The question was: How did Paul die? What or who is Sha'ul? There has been quite a tado here lately about speaking plainly as possible, and, in English, as this is an English speaking site. Would you mind please translating? |

1209 | A pretty much quick question | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 199854 | ||
Hi hoilydiver Firstly: We don't encourage underage participation, it is a rule, that our host, and sponsor, The Lockman Foundation has set down, and rightfully so, as although we would love to welcome all, it has often become a problem that needs to be addressed. So in deference to and respect of we solicit everyone not to encourage such. Secondly: You wrote: "Though I don't believe that graphics games show those images." Sense, any images, that any could talk about, would certainly include: "any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth" Now that would exclude and or include depending on which view you may be taking or situation you may be looking at, well, it covers pretty much, everything, so... How can you justify that statement? And, pray tell? What do the 144000 "witnesses" that we see in revelation have to do with that? And, where does it say please, in Scripture, that they were, placed in time? Can you explain please, what "placed in time" means? And, mostly, will you please be honest, and tell us please, if you are, or, are not, a JW? |

Amen Mr. B Actually, though, didn't Paul, mostly speak and preach in Greek? As did, John Mark, Dr. Luke and John, for that mater? :-) And I may be wrong but, didn't our lord speak Aramaic too as well as Hebrew? It all seems kinda silly really, to put Him in a box and say He is this nationality or that. He is really none of those thing's and He is all of those thing's! He's really so much bigger than that isn't He. |

Dear Cheri, Where'd you get the idea that Hebrew is God's language? If any be His, you'd have to say it'd be the one that was spoken in the garden, before language was confused at the tower of Babble! Gen 11:9 Sorry Cheri, but it seems a bit superstitious. I'm not offended at all by the way, but I have to agree with Hank, your lingo may indeed confuse, really Sister Cheri, nonconformity is not good for the Body as a whole. You know I care deeply for you my Sister, please know my heart. You may talk any way you want to me personally, if fact you can e me and chew on me all you want! But please, here at the forum, in view of all, lets try to be all on the same page, OK? You have to admit My dear Sister Cheri, that it sure has caused a stir! And some may fear I think, you are trying to become a Jew. I'm not saying you are at all but it may have that aperence and thats not so good. Gal 2:12 God bless John |

1214 | why is life described as "vain" | Eccl 9:9 | stjohn | 199826 | ||
Dear Sister Val, Oh my, dear Sister, I, having been raised in a family of eight unruly children, and a mother and father, that, along with the children, solved most of their problems by hitting and yelling, I think I would know the earmarks of an argument better then most. However, I don't see any of those marks on Doc! He is one of the most kind, and patient, and loving men I've ever had the pleasure of knowing in my entire life! He is a wonderful teacher, and strives always to present the Word of God, as the Scripture presents it. Of course he isn't always in the right, but my dear Sister, you would do very well indeed, to pay very close attention to what he is trying to teach you, and not have an attitude of giving out whatever, and letting the viewer decide what the Word says. That is how false doctrine gets its start, just like yeast, it only takes a little bit. Please consider what I have said to you is in all love and truth. Blessings to you Sister Val, I for one am very glad to have you here at the forum, your posts by and large have been very good. Thank you. God bless John |

1215 | How were non Jews saved B.C.? | Heb 11:13 | stjohn | 199825 | ||
Dave, Amen to that. Thanks, for the encouragement.... your prayers,... and, the reminder! :-) One of the area's that He is working on in me is being quick to act and slow to speak! A big job by the way! :-) Also one of my favorite songs is a children's song. (He's still workin on me.) He's still workin on me, to make me what I ought to be. It only took a week to make the Moon and the Stars, the Earth, and the Sun, and Jupiter and Mars. How loving and patient He must be, cause He's still workin on Me! There ought to be a sign, hanging on my heart, don't judge me yet, there's an unfinished part. How loving and patint He must be, cause He's still workin on me! God bless John p.s. would that be Medford OR.? or MA., NJ., MAS., NY., or WI.? answer by e (bottom of my profile) if you don't care to say in open view, or of course, not at all. :-) I'm in Jo. Co. by the way. |

pride? Dude, you keep talking about being accused of something. So what! If God is for you who can be against you? Jesusman, obviously it's not a sin, and no-one is accusing you of sining. Although you are a sinner by the way, and again, SO WHAT-!! We are all sinners saved by grace! Is it because you might have to admit you may be wrong-!! oh no-!!! Heaven forbid-!!!!!..... Again,... I ask,.... is it,.... pride? Or is it that you just don't get what we all are so vehement about? I'm not trying to put you down or trying to make you look like you don't know what you are talking about. Frankly I don't care to much how I look, as long as I'm a reflection of Him. I'm really trying very hard to figure out where you are coming from, cause Dude, I really don't get it. I've been a Christian for like a couple of seconds, compared to how long you have, and I don't understand you at all. You talk about going to school. Man I haven't had the benefit of a formal education, and sometimes I'm glad when I see what comes out of it! Get over yourself! Grow up! IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU! IT'S ABOUT GOD! |

If I may add, Brother BradK, having a full toolbox as I alluded to most certainly isn’t enough. It’s rather in the knowing which tools are going to be effective. We should all know, The Word of God needs no help at all. We can sometimes keep an intellectual conversation going by adding some extra biblical literature science and/or history. But in the end, those things in and of them-selves would have no effect on an unbeliever’s spiritual discernment, however well it may add to their intellectual discernment. It is in the end God working through His Word that brings an unbelievers understanding to the point that they see that we are depraved sinner’s in an unchecked fall into perdition, and that we are indeed in desperate need of a savior. That, is what I would call true, spiritual discernment! Sure is hard to drive that point home isn't it! Bless you, Brother. John |
