463 | What does "ask the liver" mean? | Ezekiel | CDBJ | 172852 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. There were some that would delve into the satanic arts of divination and the practice of looking at the liver of a fresh kill was one of the means of making decisions. It carries the same connotation as fortune tellers and tea readers today. It cracks me up when I see those little sign advertising fortune tellers, and they are always posted on the dumpiest looking places. If they were any good at all, and they aren’t, wouldn’t you assume that they would live in beautiful enormous mansions, since they would be hitting the lottery every week using their great psychic powers for personal gain? What a hoot, CDBJ |

Greetings Garry, and welcome to the forum. The forum participants don’t engage in others homework, seeing as how that would be kind of like cheating, and cheating in a Bible class has kind of a bad ring to it wouldn’t you agree? From the candor of your question it sounds to me like you are a noble individual, that wouldn’t have others do your work for you while you take the credit! Galatians 6:7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap. The object of a “Bible class” is to teach you how to metabolize Bible doctrine into the stream of consciousness of your soul, and if we do all the work for you, you won’t learn how to dig it out for yourself; does that sound logical? How long have you been a believer in Christ and how old are you now? 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

You are allowed to read on the forum all you want, you just are not legal to post on the forum until you are 18. Don’t be so anxious to grow up; it will happen faster then you can believe! Study in school while you still have a chance; work on English grammar and sentence structure and you won’t look like a teenager! Don’t be one who is taken in by the lack of proper English structure and you will be way ahead of your peers. Work on language so you will be ready for collage, if you really want to be a minister, dig into the Koine Greek of the New Testament and you will have jump on all of your class mates! Col. 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him. Here is the number one biblical issue; 1 John 5:10-13 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. [11] And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12] He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. [13] These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. If the previous verses aren’t sure thing with you, you better get it settled with the Lord post hast! I can always be reached by e-mail which is listed on my author profile, if you need help, since you can’t legally post on the forum. My youngest in now in “his” late thirties and he loves the Lord as do my other five which are ladies now. Have a great day, CDBJ |

I know I'm old, but does that give me the right to violate the rules of driving to the point that I should be allowed to run red lights when I desire? It's a free country but if we misuse it we lose it! Romans 13:3-5 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: [4] For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. [5] Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. You stated that you were 18 when you agreed to the terms of the forum, do you always make it a habit of lying to get your own way? 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. I believe you owe the forum an apology for misusing a privilege that isn’t truly yours and that you should cease from posting on your own before you are suspended! Do that which is right, CDBJ |

Hi Irish; Just as we should read every word that the Bible tells us; Matthew 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. No Man can boil it down to the day and hour but now the seasons are another story. Just as we don't know exactly how old you are over 16 yet we do know that you aren't 18 which is the legal age for this forum! Come back in a couple years when your post will be legal. Keep reading your Bible and be ready, CDBJ |

"I would say", it's a male that has such a messed up old sin nature that he thinks God made a mistake by putting a female soul in a male body so the effeminate tries to show how wrong God was by his perverted actions and life style. Am I close? CDBJ |

470 | Responsibility of faith | Rom 3:23 | CDBJ | 171894 | ||
Greetings Bbq, and welcome to the forum. I like your comment about people saying that they are good, but the word good is actually a relative term. When people make a statement like that they usually mean that they are good compared to someone else, and they always pick out someone who doesn’t appear good according to “their” personal standard to measure themselves by; that's a hoot! The real question is how do they measure up to God’s standard? God has a standard that everyone must attain in order to spend eternity with Him. Matthew 5:48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect. There is only one way that a person can be that perfect! Speaking of Jesus; 2 Cor. 5:21 For he (God) hath made him (Christ) to be sin for us, who knew no sin; (speaking of Jesus) that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. People that claim to be good are literally placing their good on the balance beam of God’s justice and Jesus in on the other end of the scale and everyone comes up short or lacking according to God’s standard. We live in a society that doesn’t believe in the free lunch and everybody believes that they have to do something for their salvation. God says that He has done everything necessary for mans salvation in the person of His Son Jesus the appointed one, but most aren’t willing to trust what God did for them and give up trying. Ephes. 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. Grace means we can't earn it no matter how good "we" think we are. The ones that have trusting in the finished works of Christ have given up trying to be “good”, as it were, and are just relying on Jesus; they have come to the end of their “good” works. Romans 10:4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth. Hebrews 4:10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. 1 John 5:10-13 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. [11] And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12] He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. [13] These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. The word “believe” doesn’t mean to just acknowledge that Jesus existed; It means to rely on and trust in the person of God’s unique Son Jesus and what He did on the cross for us. John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Have a great day and enjoy the forum, CDBJ |

471 | When did the curtain rip? | Luke 23:45 | CDBJ | 170991 | ||
Greetings, I believe that the first death, for our sins, took place when Jesus said the following. Matthew 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Isaiah 53:4-5 along with Psalm. 22:1 were only prophesies of the actual situation when Messiah would pay the ultimate price. Considering that the Bible doesn’t contradict itself, I would concur with the answer that Tim Moran responded with as to the exact time that the veil was split. Post #170953. I think an interesting observation would be that approximate thickness of the veil that separated the innermost parts of the temple! I’ve "heard" that it was nearly 2” thick. Does anyone have any knowledge on this? CDBJ |

472 | Why is there a difference in accounts? | Luke 23:45 | CDBJ | 170946 | ||
When Jesus was on the cross two deaths actually took place. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; The word death in the original language, (THANATOS), means separation from God The wages of sin is death this is actually a spiritual death as mentioned in Romans 6:23 this is referring to spiritual death or separation for God Mark 15:34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? (Death for Sin) Jesus took all our sins on his body, he was made sin for us and God rejected him. That’s death #1one. When he voluntarily demised his spirit his job on earth was finished death #2 was done. Death 2 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Jesus died twice on the cross once for the sins of the world and once when he voluntarily gave up his physical life because his job on earth was done. John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, (he said, It is finished:) death one (and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.) Death CDBJ |

Greetings Hic, and welcome to the forum. The true church isn’t an “organization” made of brick and wood etc but it’s actually a living body and Christ Jesus is the head. Those that put their undivded trust in what God’s Son did for them, on the cross, are its only members. The true church that Jesus is building is undetectable as a visible unit. There are many people that are members of a church but they aren’t members of "The Church". Matthew 16:17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. The invisible church is a work of God and not of man, or as the Bible says flesh and blood didn’t do the revealing to you, but God did it through His Spirit. Matthew 16:18 (B) I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. The church is still growing and Jesus is the one who is building it, one member at a time, as unbelievers change their train of thinking and put their faith and hopes in Christ. Ephes. 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. The reason there are so many denominations is because people are assuming something that the Bible doesn’t really say due to the fact that they aren’t true members of God’s family. They are twisting Scripture around to their own destruction. Peter wrote, speaking of Paul; 2 Peter 3:16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: The true members of God’s family understand the membership of the church that Jesus is building because it has been revealed to them. Ephes. 1:9-13 Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: [10] That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: [11] In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will: [12] That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. [13] In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise, Have you come to place yet where God has placed his seal on you? In other words, do you have full assurance that eternal life is yours as a gift from God? Have a nice day, CDBJ |

Hello friend, and welcome to the forum. I appreciate you effort but I believe you should realize that the main thrust of this forum is the Bible and what God has to say with regards to various doctrines. For example: If you would like to know what the Bible says with reference to the free gift that God has for people, I’m sure we could point you in the right direction, and show you personally how you could receive it; even though it is a fabulous mystery to most, and there are few that are actually chosen to receive it, yet you might be one of them! This is a call to the curious of heart. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Hi Jan, and welcome to the forum. The way I see it since it's his, tribulation party he will be here for the whole shebang. He will get some upper level help though when about half way through, I.E. the last three and one half years. During the last 3 and 1/1/2 years He will get some upper level help from the Devil himself Rev. 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. The is the adversaries last chance to really mess things up before he will be incarcerated for 1000 years.

Greetings hobbs, Let me see if I'm hearing you right. Are you suggesting that Gen 12:3 is only talking about believers and not the offspring of Abraham in general? Genesis 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. "Presuming" that you are right in your opinion, would you say that all of those that God delivered out of Egypt were believers? Many of us, me included, are the wild olive tree and we, only by the grace of God, have been grafted in where the “natural branches” have been “temporally” broken off. The Jews are still the chosen “people” of God and make no mistake about it! I am a firm believer in the following, with emphasis on the word “ALL”. Romans 11:25-28 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. [26] And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: [27] For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. [28] As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes. CDBJ |

Hello Mzavala and welcome to the forum, Even if it were a sin but it’s not; the only sin that will make any difference, in the next life, is the sin of not putting all of ones faith and hope in the person of Jesus, God’s Messiah. I have talked to numerous people that are trusting in their church affiliation and their own “good deeds” to try and get eternal life. Ephes. 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. Son’s futile. John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Have you received the gift of salvation that God has for you yet?
