261 | WILL WE HAVE BODIES? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 10130 | ||
Taby815, Welcome. Let me add my thoughts, to those correct ones of my friends. I was delayed last night - the site was not responding when I posted. I believe we will have new bodies (2Co 5:4, 15:51; Php 3:21), not exactly sure what they will be like. I doubt there is any Biblical truth to being a ghost and see through each other. Ask the person to cite Scripture and look at the context ... even bring it here, for us to investigate. We will recognize each other. I base this on Luke 16:23 where the rich man recoginzed Lazarus. I believe we will live in apartments (John 14:2). I think we will work. Those who were lazy were condemned (2Th 3:6ff). Again, I am not sure what I will be doing. Please do not type in all capital letters, unless it is a point of emphasis. It is very hard to read. Some think it is yelling. Hope this helps. Steve |

262 | Isn't writing G-d a Jewish thing? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 10201 | ||
Norrie, Questioner is our Muslim friend and he does the same thing. So it is not just a Jewish "thing". I think the matter is very serious to both groups. The Jews did not write or say His name, because they did not want to take His name in vain (Exo 20:7). We take the name of our Lord lightly. We do not stand up and speak out when someone makes it common, or even worse, drags it in the sewer water. His name is holy, that is separated from all others ... higher than calling Mr. Bush, Mr. President. Maybe 5 million times higher is not high enough. Off my soapbox, Steve |

263 | Is telling a lie(all kinds) sin? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 10920 | ||
Men2ring, Lying is not for us to do. God does not like it (Exo 20:16; Deu 5:20, 19:18-19; Psa 5:2, 24:4-5, 27:12; Pro 6:16-7, 12:22). In the New Teatament we see this, too (Jhn 16:13; Eph 4:22-24; Col 3:9; 1Jo 2:4, 21-22 4:20). Remember what happened to Ananias and Sapphira when they lied (Acts 5:1-11). Telling a lie is a sin, since God does not like it. Steve |

264 | Who is the Alpha and the Omega? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11089 | ||
John, You are right. Both the Father and the Son were at the begining (Jhn 1:1) and will rule at the end of human history. They have other shared names and attributes. They are eternal (Gen 21:33, 1Ti 1:17), that is They existed before the creation. This also applies to the Holy Spirit. Steve |

265 | What does the number 40 mean? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11118 | ||
Roberta, number of testing and trial. according to Willmington, H. L. in "Book of Bible Lists." Gen 7:4 - Rained 40 days and 40 nights Exo 24:18 - Moses on Mount Sinai 40 days and 40 nights Exo 34:28 - Moses fasted 40 days and 40 nights Num 13:25 - Israel spied out the land 40 days Num 14:33 - Israel wandered 40 years 1Sa 4:18 - Eli led Israel 40 years 1Sa 17:16 - Goliath taunted Israel 40 days 1Ki 19:8 - Elijah's trip to horeb took 40 days and 40 nights Eze 29:12 - No one will be able to pass through Egypt for 40 years Jnh 3:4 - Jonah preached Ninevah would be destoryed in 40 days Mat 4:2 - Jesus fasted 40 days and 40 nights, then tempted Act 1:3 - 40 days and 40 nights between resurrection and ascension There are other phrases with the number 40. I see a variety of activities. Some are not testings or trails. Some people are into numerology, I am not. Steve |

266 | What does the 40 mean? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11122 | ||
Roberta, 40 means "testingĀ andĀ trial." I said that HL Wilmington said that was the meaning. Then I pointed out the verses. One reason I am not into neumerology is because they do not always fit what the "experts" say. Steve |

267 | When was Adam created? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11207 | ||
Raymondo, You are right. If you accept the dates of birth of the children of each succeeding generation: -Adam was 130 when Seth was born (Gen 5:3) -Seth was 105 when Enosh was born (Gen 5:6) -Enosh was 90 when Kenan was born (Gen 5:9) ... and so forth. There may be some gaps. I think this question has been asked and answered before. Steve |

268 | Eggs for cash: Help! | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11448 | ||
Eric33415, There is no passage on selling of eggs. -However, what is the motive? Is it Biblically sound? -I fear she could be used to gain eggs for the wrong reasons, including stem cell research. Steve |

JMR, Mark 6:3 (James, Joseph, Judas, Simon and unnamed sisters) and Matthew 12:46 (no names given) say that he did. Steve PS The site has a search engine. You didn't have to wait for an answer for this question. |

271 | No medical/spiritual need to circumcise? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11816 | ||
Circumsion is a mark (Gen 17:11), and some do it for no other reason. | ||||||
272 | Are all forms of telling a lie is Sin? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11887 | ||
Men2ring, Some of these verses have their own string. Plus, there are other verses. Never does the Scripture give us grounds for telling either a lie or a half-truth. The reason for this is because God is true and his nature is truth itself. Anything less than this is a denial of him as God. Nowhere does it justify the lie or moralize the event. Exodus 1:21 specifically says that Shiphrah and Puah were blessed of the Lord because they "feared God," not because they lied. Sin does not just effect your own life, beit a lie or something else ... it effects others. Steve |
||||||
273 | Could you be more specific | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11896 | ||
There - We can't justify sin. PERIOD. Yes, people did not always tell the whole truth. I say again, the Bible never justify sin. Abraham's lie Abimelech is not either. Look at the consequences of his lie (vv 17-18). Should the woman in your illustration tell the truth. Yes. Becuase, she needs to trust God for the situation. Plus a lie, could get her killed - so it would effect her children, who the robber may not kill. Never NEVER say, "Because Abraham (or whoever) lied and the Lord did this ... I can lie in this special situation" ... they will mount up and soon you will say you will justify your inhaling. Steve |

274 | Are the Jews still the chosen people? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11931 | ||
Genesis 17:7 is when God made His everlasting covenant with Abraham. Read Nehemiah 9 to see how true it is - no matter what Israel did, the covenant was unbroken. JVH0212 cited Romans 11:1 and other verses to show this was true in his day. God will never break His covenant and Israel is key in the end times. Steve |
||||||
275 | On what day was Jesus crucified? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11932 | ||
Luke 24:21 says it is the third day since. It was Sunday, the first day of the week (vs 1). Counting forward also show Abib 14 was Thursday. I have more than I posted online. Just ask. Steve |

276 | a lie is a lie is a lie... | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 11955 | ||
Abraham's lie was never justified. I am sorry for any confusion. Silence probably is better than a lie. Steve |
||||||
277 | How much authority... | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 12011 | ||
There, It depends on if the Bible study is part of the church. Some have Bible studies as part of a small group of the church. Others have a Bible study that do not have other church members, or a very few. If there are more than a few members, I would take a dim eye on the group - the authority of the church was not condidered important. Would one need his permission to study as a family as well? No, but if we add another couple of families - it is a small group and should be part of the church. The goal is to get people into church, even if I was doing my study for my neighbors, coworkers, et al Steve |
||||||
278 | Going back to the same old same old... | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 12112 | ||
We need the permission of the church, too, and whomever the church has given the authority, beit the pastor or someone else. Shannon can only have a Bible study with women. What is the reason for the continual asking - Nolan and I have given you clear answers. Are you looking for an answer that pleases you? Even if you do and the church says you must not - you are wrong. Yes we need the Lord's permission, I never said you did not. Steve |
||||||
279 | I guess I'm asking because... | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 12127 | ||
Hebrews 13:17 1 Peter 2:13-3:6 and 1 Peter 5:5 are the passages I cited. It does not say specify the Bible study. But, it does talk about submitting to the leaders. There does need to be order. As wee need to follow the law of the land, we need to follow that of the church we attend. If you think it violates the Law of God, in the latter - move on, if they will not listen. My belief is based on God's Word and the "man's religious structure" is in compliance ... or am I wrong? Steve |

280 | Can a woman with no womb bear a child? | Bible general Archive 1 | Searcher56 | 12140 | ||
Great posts, I agree. There does need to be wise Christian counsel, starting with the pastor ... -to keep the marriage together -to heal your friend Matthew 11:28-29 came to mind as I was typing this. Let her know she is in our prayers. Steve |
