Dear bpayne, As far as I know from the questions you asked, they are apparently homework questions. If you intentionally pass your load or responsibility to others, I am afraid this forum is not the one for you as we are not a "tutorialforum". Please seriously meditate on 2 Timothy 2:15 and avoid the potential behaviour of cheating. It would be even disgusting to make use of others' hardwork for satisfying or backup a homework website for profit making. Shalom Azure |

Dear bobbyray, Is it a homework assignment? We cannot get our names written in the book of life. Those names have been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world. (Rev 13:8, 17:8) However, in answer to your question about "how", you may read John 3:16-18. Shalom Azure |

410 | Ps. 82:6 "ye are gods" | Ps 82:6 | azurelaw | 216320 | ||
Dear misspr, Welcome to the forum. Kindly note that verses should not be taken out of the context. In the passage of Psalm 82, God demands righteous justice from the earthly magistrates or office since they are given authority in their office as sanctioned by God. Comments of great honour as "gods" has been given to them but it does not mean that they are really gods. Read also v7-8 that you will be clear about the picture. "The greatest honour was thus put upon them; they were delegated gods, clothed for a while with a little of that authority by which the Lord judges among the sons of men. And all of you are children of the Most High. This was their ex-officio character, not their moral or spiritual relationship. There must be some government among men, and as angels are not sent to dispense it, God allows men to rule over men, and endorses their office, so far at least that the prostitution of it becomes an insult to his own prerogatives. Magistrates would have no right to condemn the guilty if God had not sanctioned the establishment of government, the administration of law, and the execution of sentences. Here the Spirit speaks most honourably of these offices, even when it censures the officers; and thereby teaches us to render honour to whom honour is due, honour to the office even if we award censure to the officer bearer." -- Charles Spurgeon For Is 41:23, [you will find that God is mocking the idols] please start reading v21-24 where the AMP version and my Chinese Bible show: Is 41:21 [You idols made by men's hands, prove your divinity!] Produce your cause [set forth your case], says the Lord. Bring forth your strong proofs, says the King of Jacob. Is 41:22 Let them bring them forth and tell us what is to happen. Let them tell us the former things, what they are, that we may consider them and know the outcome of them; or declare to us the things to come. Is 41:23 Tell us the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that you are gods; yes, do good or do evil [something or other], that we may stare in astonishment and be dismayed as we behold [the miracle] together! Is 41:24 Behold, you [idols] are nothing, and your work is nothing! The worshiper who chooses you is an abomination [extremely disgusting and shamefully vile in God's sight]. [I Cor. 8:4.] Shalom Azure |

Dear Hood, In addition, please find the below aricle from gotquestions.org which I think helpful for your better understanding. Shalom Azure ***** "Is God restoring the offices of apostle and prophet in the church today?" Answer: The movement to restore the offices of apostle and prophet bases the claim that apostles and prophets are to be a part of the church on Ephesians 4:11-12. These verses say, "And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ." During the first century of the church, there was an office of apostle and there was a spiritual gift of apostle. The office or position of apostle was held by the 12 disciples of Jesus plus Matthias, who took Judas’ place, and Paul. Those who held the office or position of apostle were chosen specifically by Christ (Mark 3:16-19). The replacement for Judas is seen in Acts 1:20-26. Note in this passage that Judas' position was called an office. It should also be noted that Paul was chosen by Christ (1 Corinthians 15:8-9; Galatians 1:1; 2:6-9). These men were given the task of setting up the foundation of the church. It should be understood that it was for the universal church that these men were a part of the foundation (Ephesians 2:20). The foundation of the church (universal church) was laid in the first century. This is why the office of apostle is no longer functioning. There was also a spiritual gift of apostle (this is not to be confused with the office—they are separate). Among those who had the spiritual gift were James (1 Corinthians 15:7; Galatians 1:19), Barnabas (Acts 14:4, 14; 1 Corinthians 9:6), Andronicus and Junias (Romans 16:7), possibly Silas and Timothy (1 Thessalonians 1:1; 2:7), and Apollos (1 Corinthians 4:6, 9). This latter group had the gift of apostleship but not the apostolic "office" conferred upon the Twelve and Paul. Those who had the gift of apostle, then, were those who carried the gospel message with God’s authority. The word "apostle" means "one sent as an authoritative delegate." This was true of those who held the office of Apostle (like Paul) and those who had the spiritual gift (like Apollos). Though there are men like this today, men who are sent by God to spread the gospel, it is best NOT to refer to them as apostles because of the confusion this causes since many are not aware of the two different uses of the term apostle. The gift of prophet was a temporary gift given by the Christ for the laying of the foundation of the universal church. Prophets also were foundational to the universal church (Ephesians 2:20). The prophet proclaimed a message from the Lord for the believers of the first century. These believers did not have the advantage we have of having a complete Bible. The last book of the New Testament (Revelation) was not completed until late in the first century. So the Lord provided gifted men called prophets who proclaimed messages from God to the people until the canon of Scripture was complete. It should be noted that the current teaching of the restoration of prophet and the office of apostle is far from what Scripture describes of the men who held the gift of prophet and the office of apostle. Those who teach the restoration of the office teach that the men who claim to be apostles and prophets should never be spoken against, should never be questioned, because the person who speaks against them is speaking against God. Yet, the Apostle Paul commended the people of Berea for checking what he said against the Word of God to make sure he spoke the truth (Acts 17:10-11). The Apostle Paul also stated to those in Galatia that if anyone, including himself, should teach another Gospel, that person should be "accursed" (Galatians 1:8-9). In everything, Paul kept pointing people to the Bible as the final authority. The men who claim to be apostles and prophets today make themselves the final authority, something Paul and the Twelve never did. It should also be noted that Scripture refers to these men in the past tense. 2 Peter 3:2 and also Jude 3-4, state that the people should not stray from the message the apostles gave (past tense). Hebrews 2:3-4 also speaks in the past tense of the those who performed (in the past) signs, wonders, miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit. ***** |

Dear Hood, See Acts 1:13-26 for the qualification of Apostle. Other than this, all are only disciples (Mat 28:19). Shalom Azure |

Dear pkbldr, Welcome to the forum. This is a good question. I cannot say I can provide you a solid answer; however, interesting that last week I was preparing a bible study for my youth group on John 3:14-21. During my research, some studies show that v16-21 could not have been spoken by Jesus but a further elaboration by John. The conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus seemingly ended in v15 as we can see from the syntax and the context of the preceding chapters. Therefore, this could be John's writing style to "insert" some of his Holy Spirit inspired elaboration in between and chapter 17:2-3 could be the same case as in chapter 3:16-21. Which means that Jesus prayer is from Chapter 17:1, 17:3- onward. Again, I cannot be dogmatic on this but just my 2 cents. There maybe others who are more well-versed and knowledged to give you a better and satisfactory answer :-) Shalom Azure |

418 | The Lord's prayer shows immaturity? | John 17:1 | azurelaw | 215952 | ||
Dear Humility, I also love to pray the Lord's prayer especially during my devotional time. We also recite it at every Sunday service. I don't think they should condemn you, however, you may need to explain to them why you treasure the Lord's prayer so much and tell them the richness, depth and precious meaning of it. Meanwhile, I also think that we should not limit our prayer to the Lord's prayer as you can see how Jesus prayed in Gethsemane (Mat 26) and John 17 that those were very specific, yet, they were in the essence of the Lord's prayer. Shalom Azure |

Dear Pwadumdi, I see that both BMyers and Searcher have given you fine answers. If you want example, the one I've got at this moment is my favourite "Amazing Grace" http://www.markrhoads.com/amazingsite/index.htm Will you consider stop singing it for the reason that the tune is most probably originated from Scottish folk song? Shalom Azure |

420 | Who was David's mother? | OT general | azurelaw | 215827 | ||
Dear Spanishmama, Welcome to the forum. The bible does not provide name of King David's mother. The best I can get from the external source is : ***** David was born in Bethlehem, in the territory of the Tribe of Judah. His father was named Jesse. His mother is not named in the Bible, but the Talmud identifies her as Nitzevet daughter of Adael. Source: wikipedia ***** Shalom Azure |
