have you considered any of these? Psalm 127:3 Children are a blessing and a gift from the LORD. Psalm 139:13-14a 13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. 14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; James 1:17 Every good and perfect gift is from above. Matthew 18:5 And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. Matthew 19:14 Jesus said, ´Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” Psalm 22:10 From the day I was born, I have been in your care,and from the time of my birth, you have been my God. Isaiah 49:15 Can a mother forget her infant, be without tenderness for the child of her womb? Even should she forget, I will never forget you. Jer 1:5 Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; |

42 | Please clarify Proverb 19:19 for me. | James 1:20 | bible believer | 201093 | ||
hello again, godsstudent: you're pretty close but not quite a bulls eye!! it's not so much about "paying a penalty, if one is to be paid", as you said, but more about changing the behavior (hot temper). this behavior, which is sinful and offensive to God, will not correct itself and will most likely get worse over time. an effective means of preventing this behavior from worsening would be to have the hot tempered man be accountable (suffer the consequences/pay the penalty) of his actions. God bless you as you study the word of God! |

all right, let's try again. you may be referring to the many verses in Deuteronomy, one of which is 14:29. there's also acts 6:1 and 1 Timothy 5: 3,16. do any of them work? you might want to try a good concordance and look for your key words of orphan and widow. also try other translations other than the one you currently use. there are many great websites that would provide that kind of reference info for you. God bless and may the Lord be with you and your ministry! |

45 | Sin unto death | 1 John | bible believer | 202279 | ||
hi again cheri: no such thing as a dumb question, right? (only dumb answers :-) first of all, keep in mind that the point of the passage is about the need and command to pray. the following is from david hoke: "The point (of these verses) is that we should be engaged in prayer for one another. We should be involved in intercessory prayer. We are interconnected in the church of Jesus Christ. We are one body. We are interrelated in such a way that one life impacts another. What you do makes a difference to someone else. What they do makes a difference to you. And so, we must never see ourselves as independent agents. We must see ourselves as dependent upon each other. That is why we need to pray for one another. That is why, when we see someone struggling with sin, we need to pray that God would grant forgiveness. That is the real point John is making here. This is a practical illustration of the need to put prayer into practice by praying for one another." as far as your specific question of "what is the sin unto death"?, well, it is not specifically stated in this particular text and there seems to be some variety of explanation among commentators. remembering that our brothers can not commit a "sin unto death" (since our brother's salvation is irrevocable)the passage exhorts us to pray about the specific sins of our brothers. the only ones who can commit a "sin unto death" would be a non-believer. for the non-believing person, we are not told to not pray for HIM (my emphasis) but to not pray for IT (my emphasis)- meaning we should not be praying about the specific sins of the non-believer (as we do pray about the specific sins of believers, but we are to just pray for their conversion, their eyes to be opened, their hearts to be changed. hope this provides some assistance to you. |

47 | Jesus' Body in Heaven | 1 John 3:2 | bible believer | 200898 | ||
Jesus was the first man to be given a resurrection body. although his new body (post resurrection) was radically different (from the pre-resurrected body) he still retained his scars and ate food. He was a solid flesh and bone person, but somehow was able to appear within a locked room! it is this body that shows us a tiny snippet of God’s plan for a new heaven and earth. in the eternal state - heaven, our glorified bodies will reflect a new order of things. The Bible tells us that we will look like Jesus in his resurrected form. 1 John 3:2 "Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is." Philippians 3:20-21 "But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Saviour from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body." John 20:26-27 "A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, ‘Peace be with you!’ Then he said to Thomas, ‘Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.’" Matthew 17:1-2 "After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light." Revelation 1:14-17 "His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance. When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead." i pray you find this answer helpful. God bless you! |

48 | Bibical prophecies about the endtimes. | Revelation | bible believer | 199111 | ||
The preterist view regards Revelation as a symbolic picture of early church conflicts which have already been fulfilled. This view denies the future predictive quality of most of the book of Revelation. In varying degrees, this view combines the allegorical and symbolic interpretation with the concept that Revelation does not deal with specific future events. The preterist movement essentially teaches that all the end times prophecies of the New Testament were fulfilled in A.D. 70 when the Romans attacked and destroyed Jerusalem and Israel. |

49 | Satan in prison for 1,000 years? | Rev 20:7 | bible believer | 201314 | ||
good morning: Revelation 20 does deal with satan's 1000 year imprisonment and other topics including satan's fate upon release and the white throne judgment. perhaps i've not followed your question thread correctly but the most important point to make in answering your question is that satan is not currently imprisoned (for 1,000 yrs) but this is something that will happen in the future. since this is a future event, there is not sense in trying to "calculate the release date". we have many evidences that not only is satan not currently imprisoned but look around, he is alive and well in our current day and age. Biblical counsel tells us to "resist him",(Jas 4:7) and to not "give him a foothold"(Eph 4:27). this would not be an issue if the devil was currently imprisoned! "Your enemy, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour". 1 Peter 5:8 God bless you as you continue to study His word. |
