I believe he was 33. It was either 32 or 33. I will have to check for sure. It'll be in one or more of the Gosples. Mat, Mark Luke or John. I'll check. George |

24 | At what age did Jesus die? | NT general Archive 1 | GeorJoy | 94667 | ||
Well unknown_christian, I can't seem to put my finger on the scriptural answer at the moment. But I will eventually. I'm sure He was 33. I know He was baptized at 30. Perhaps someone a little more learned will point out where in scripture we can verify what age Our Lord was when He was crucified. George |

25 | Women Preachers? Yes or No? | NT general Archive 1 | GeorJoy | 94877 | ||
We "belierers" are not under the law. In many ways, todays Churches are as the Pharasees and Sadjucees in the days of the early Church. No matter what discussion man may participate in concerning your question, or what conclusion man may come to, the meaning of the following verse will never change. (KJV) Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. One thought though. The above verse did not state that "there is neither homosexual nor hedrosexual...." Scripture refers to such as an "abomination." Nature itself condems such a so-called " alternate lifestyle". You'll need to understand the culture of the original Church to get a full answer to your post concerning women preachers. Perhaps someone will post a more discriptive answer concerning such. God Bless George |

26 | The Church's response to Active Sin | NT general Archive 1 | GeorJoy | 94979 | ||
There is a statement in scripture that goes depicts the following thought. Walk not with those who walk not according to our belief. Forgive me, but at the moment I simply can't put my finger on it. George |

27 | re: Jesus' age | NT general Archive 1 | GeorJoy | 95011 | ||
There is no statement in scripture as to Christ's actual age when He was crucified. There is evidence though that would suggest that He was between 33 and 34. I hope I have been of assistance. George |

28 | Pictures | NT general Archive 1 | GeorJoy | 95014 | ||
I've not done much studying on the subject, but from what little of the surface I have scratched, I would say that the "Shroud of Turrin" is probably the best likeness to be found. It appears to me that many artist's renditions, (although as Hank stated, they can only be attributed to the artist's imagination,) of our Lords likeness, would support this statement. I would have to say that DarcyA's post quoting John 20:29, pretty much says it all. George |

29 | Is obedience to every command necessary? | NT general Archive 1 | GeorJoy | 101022 | ||
I have been baptized, and I have heard it said that a Christian must be baptized. Yet I can find nothing in the word that says such. If one is to advance beyond simple salvation and grow spiritually, one must be baptized. To receive the Holy Spirit, one must be baptized. Yet "Salvation" requires nothing more than to believe in Jesus Christ; that He died on the cross and paid the penalty for our sins; confess our sins, to forsake them and live for him... Baptism is a symbol and a display of ones faith. It is not a requirement for salvation. Salvation is a gift by Grace... Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. It was not said "through faith and baptism." I find 59 verses in the KJV with a form of the word "baptize." Mar 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Mar 16:16 is the closest verse I can find that could be construed as to mean that to be saved, one must be baptized. Yet, even this verse does not make this statement. Neither does it say "but he that (is baptized) not shall be damned." The blood of Jesus Christ has provided salvation for all who believe, for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Rom 10:10 George |

31 | A SHOVEl and a HOe | Gen 2:1 | GeorJoy | 93814 | ||
If you think about it, it is a valid question. There was no law at the time (other than Gods command.) "Where there is no law, there is no sin." If I were there durring that time, I would be concerned. However, considering the fact that I wasn't, I'll just place the thought in the back of my mind and go on to bigger and more important questions and answers. Questions like, how can I better serve Him in the here and now, while I have the opporitunity? George |

32 | Where does the 6th day end? | Gen 2:1 | GeorJoy | 94016 | ||
If we were still in the 6th day, then it would have been said "and He will rest on the seventh day." I believe Ge 2:2 stated, "...and he rested on the seventh day..." How can anyone who can read; anyone who believes scripture is the word of God; feel the need to debate such a question? I am not very familiar with J's W doctrine. What little I have heard (from the poor, confused and demented souls who follow them,)of their profane and vain babblings, has sickened me enough, that I will not allow them to get their tenticles in deep enough to confuse me. coffee please, study the following. Then turn to the Living Water of the Word. Your mind will be clensed of all the muck therein. Once such trash has been clensed, you will see clearly... 2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2Ti 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. God Bless George |

33 | Any other people then Adam and Eve? | Gen 2:4 | GeorJoy | 90415 | ||
No... And like everyone else, you may ask "then where did Cains wife come from?" Now that's a topic for another discussion. George |

34 | Is God he, she or neither? | Gen 2:4 | GeorJoy | 90420 | ||
Does it really matter? What does it say in the word? “Gal 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.” So… Why would it be any different for God? Mar 12:25 For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven. In our limited understanding, we must look on Him as one or the other. I would recommend that one should take the bible as truth and not try to add to or subtract from it. For as it says in Rev 22:19; “And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” I would say that one would be wise to heed this warning as to the rest of Gods word as well... I should also think that before answering any such a question as yours, one should seriously consider what is said in Mat 18:6 (GNB); "If anyone should cause one of these little ones to lose his faith in me, it would be better for that person to have a large millstone tied around his neck and be drowned in the deep sea.” I, personally think of God as a “HE,” simply because HIS word depicts such. I believe however in what I stated from the word above, and my comments thereon. “there is neither male nor female…” George |

35 | Why would God do that? | Gen 2:7 | GeorJoy | 89512 | ||
Let me answer your question with a question or two. (1) Why would a person plant a garden, knowing that there are going to be weeds in it? (2) If automobiloes could speak, would a Model A have had the right to ask Henry ford, "With all my imperfections, you know I'm going to end up in the junk yard, why have you created me? or why didn't you create me with air conditioning, an AM/FM sterio CD player and plush interior? You knew they would all be invented." "I am the potter. You are the clay." George |

36 | Will suicide condem my soul to hell? | Ex 20:13 | GeorJoy | 101456 | ||
Dear soul, was it not specified in the 10 commandments (Exo 20:13) that "Thou shalt not kill?" Is killing an unpardonable sin? No. Must we ask to receive forgiveness? Yes. Will a sin laden person enter the gates of heaven? No. If one kills himself, does he not commit sin by killing? Will that one receive forgiveness for that final sin? NO! George |

This was simply his method of revenge, in burning the crops of his enemy. Nothing more. In his shoes, I'd have been mad too. I think it was pretty crafty. George |

38 | Pt.2 A Female Oversee | 1 Sam 25:10 | GeorJoy | 86365 | ||
It is odd that I in such discussions I have yet to hear anyone quote 1 Timothy 2:14. I like the way the NIV puts it. I think it says it all. "And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. " I suppose people will listen to whom they will listen. I have heard some very gifted women preaching the word of God. There is a little voice I personally have inside. It's more a feeling, or an inner knowledge than a voice. Every time I have ever gone against that inner "whatever it is," I have regretted it. That voice along with a non-biased study of the word, tells me that The Lord intended for MAN to be the head of the family, the teacher and instructor. And likewise the leader of His Church. There are many fools out there that call themselves men, but just because they are fools don’t mean that woman was ever meant to fulfill their responsibilities. In1 Sam 25:20-39, I recall an occurrence where the King David was going to kill a certain fella who was, what some this day aould call a regular blankety blank... This fellas wife begged the King not to kill him and in not so many words said "he may be a fool, but he is my fool." For her sake the King didn’t kill him. Well, as it ended up, the Lord killed that fella. The King wound marrying the fools wife. From a fools wife to a Kings wife! I wonder if the King would have married her if she had been aspiring to the Priesthood? Women have their responsibilities in in spreading Gods word... If they would only follow their exzmples in Gods word. GeorJoy My screen name represents my name and my wifes name. Not the other way around. She bears my family name. Not the other way around. Adam was created, then Eve. Not the other way around. Eve was the first to be deceived. Not the other way around. Like it or not. These are the facts. And the latter can not be changed. |

39 | How do you put this into practice? | Ps 46:10 | GeorJoy | 100325 | ||
Don't be overly anxious, energetic or enthusiastic. ASV Mat 6:34 Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. ASV Mat 6:27 And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit unto the measure of his life? Luk 10:41 But the Lord answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things: Luk 12:26 If then ye are not able to do even that which is least, why are ye anxious concerning the rest? In Christ George |

40 | God helps those who help themselves? | Prov 13:4 | GeorJoy | 94039 | ||
Pro 13:4 The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat. I would say that the diligent tend to help themselves. The sluggard waits for someone to do for him. The quote you speak of is not in scripture, but the thought is. George |
