221 | What season was Jesus born in. | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 235778 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. The correct answer to your question isn’t actually expressed and this has been a hot topic for years. Just trying to determine the actual year is hard enough. Extra biblical efforts place it around 7 to 4, will say BC and it had to be fairly warm for the trip to be plausible so likely spring sometime but again no one knows. Sorry I couldn’t be of much help but I hope you enjoy the forum. CDBJ |

You have evidently pointed an answer to me which I didn’t ask the question in the first place, i.e. you presented it to the wrong poster. The content of your message seems to be rather obscure seeing that there isn’t any information there to read? CDBJ |

Sorry to have rattled you: what I was trying to do was to present a paronomasia. I realize what Matt. 16:28 says, but for your position to be correct, what it actually said shows that your opinion of the Kingdom coming at Pentecost can’t be possible. All of the apostles with the exception of Judas were in the upper room on the day of Pentecost “not just some”, which is what was said by Christ when He pronounced the seeing of the Kingdom coming. I won’t trouble you any further and again I’m sorry for upsetting you, my mistake, CDBJ |

Welcome to the forum but I must ask the following. Due to the specific wording of your post, does either one of your two questions pertain to a homework assignment? First point under the rules of terms of use. The Forum is not intended to provide or be a source for answering test or homework questions of those that are students. Questions asked should be from a true desire to learn and not as an easy substitute for the learning process (3/8/11). Please inform, CDBJ |

225 | what is grace | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236146 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the Forum. Grace is all that God is free to do for mankind on the basis of what Jesus Christ did on the cross. It can not be earned or worked for, if it could be then it wouldn't be grace. There is a play on the word GRACE (God's Riches At Christ's Expense) Grace is actually the plan of God for mankind since Jesus was here the first time. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Where can one find this information stating that the nephilim were dinosaurs? This is a new slant on the Hebrew word nepilim. CDBJ |

229 | Three Days and Three Nights | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236365 | ||
Greetings EdB, I did an extensive study on that very subject several years ago and came up with the same exact conclusion, i.e. you hit the nail right on the head. Everybody that tries to figure this out assumes that the Sabbath is Saturday and that’s where they get all mixed up when counting back. I was told that the process as was discussed in the earlier posts is a carryover from Romanism and the Sabbath had to be Saturday: NOT! There is a great book out on “The Jewish Feast” that was written by a Marvin Rosenthal; the art work in it is fantastic and it was through this book that it was made clear to me. I used the book as a teaching aid in a Sunday morning class that lasted close to two months. Have a great day and I like your post, CDBJ |

231 | what does the name jesus mean | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236467 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. The name Jesus was first used, though in a different form, back in the Old Testament. The one who delivered the people of God from their wonderings in the desert into the promise land, Joshua. The proper Hebrew spelling is yehoshua, pronounced, yeh-ho-shoo-ah. The meaning is the same in Hebrew and Greek, “God is salvation”. When looking at the word in the Koine Greek of the New Testament it is Iesous and pronounced, ee-ay-sooce, which when used in the English we pronounce it Jesus. Notice what it says in the following: Isaiah 7:14 (ASV) 14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. This not a so much a name as it is a title. In proper English format it would be, “with us is God.” Luke 2:11 (ASV) 11 for there is born to you this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord. This verse is telling us the same thing that is said in Isaiah 7:14, i.e. the one born to the human race this day is none other then the very Lord God Himself. This was determined from the divine decree from eternity past, when it was decided by the God Head that the second person of the trinity would voluntarily become a human being. As God He can’t die because God is eternal life but as a man could die. By doing this the Second person of the Trinity would be the anointed and appointed one, for the payment of the penalty for man’s sin. This isn't imputed to anyone until they have total undivided faith in the work trhat Jesus accomplished on the cross. From the time He became Jesus the Christ, at that point in time He became the most unique individual in existence. He is different then God the Father and God the Holy Spirit in that He is a man. He is different then any man in that He is God; He is the God Man. He is 100 percent God and at the same time He is 100 percent man; He is the God Man. Hebrews 1:6-8 (KJV) 6 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him. 7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. 8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. I hope you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |

232 | Aren't Isaelites and Jews, one people? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236468 | ||
Hi Doc, Am I right in my thinking that the word Jew could be referred to as a race, a nationality and a religion? I was taught that but it’s been so many years ago that I can’t remember if I still have it right or not. The race started with Abraham, the Nation started with Moses when they left Egypt, then the religion began at Mt. Sinai when Moses received the 10 Commandments and delivered them to the chosen people of God, would that be correct? CDBJ |

233 | what does the bible have sorragate paren | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236523 | ||
Hello and welcome to the forum, I hope you enjoy it. There is no specific biblical information in the Bible regarding these exact terms but I can tell you that the old sin nature has been passed down to all of us through the male of the species having originated through dear old Adam. 1 Corinthians 15:22 (NASB) 22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive. Jesus Christ is the only one that has ever been born without an old sin nature because His mother was Marry and His Father was God Himself therefore no old sin nature. 2 Corinthians 5:21 (NASB) 21 He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. Now there is a deal that one doesn’t want to pass up! Have you come to the place yet in your spiritual experience where you can say that you’ve acquired the righteousness of God? Matthew 5:20 (NASB) 20 "For I say to you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. Have a great day, CDBJ |

234 | In what year did Jesus die? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236527 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. The exact day that Christ died has been kicked around for years. I can tell you this much; where people really get mixed up and confused is due to the fact that the Jewish day starts in the evening 6:00pm. Now where the religious factions gets it all balled up is due to the mentioning of the next day being the Sabbath, which when it happened, the day after the 14th of Nissan on the Jewish calendar, they all assume that to be Saturday but the fact is the day after the 14th of Nissan isn’t a regular Sabbath or Saturday but a High Sabbath due to the feast of unleavened bread which that year fell on a Friday and not a Saturday. This being the case, and without having to perform all of the mental gymnastics, it makes it easy for Jesus to have been in the grave three full days and three full nights. You can have the internet figure it out for you using these parameters to determine the exact year that Christ paid our penalty, as a substation for our sin. Have you totally trusted in and relied on what Jesus did for you that day when He personally died on the cross for you? When you do God will place the Son in you as a gift from the Father and you in Christ causing you to become a new creature. 2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJV) 17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 1 John 5:10-13 (KJV) 10 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. I hope you have a beneficial Easter, CDBJ |

235 | Can you continue to sin an go to heaven? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236531 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the Bible Forum. I enjoyed your personal profile but there is one part that puzzled me. You stated, (any person who wants to become a child of God must be BLAMELESS and HARMLESS -- FIRST -- and THEN -- he can be a child of God.) That’s almost like a sick person becoming healthy before they go to the doctor, that's how I see it from my perspective. How exactly does that line up with what the Apostle Paul recommended and Jesus as well in John 1:12? Galatians 3:26 (NASB) 26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. John 1:12 (NASB) 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name, (believing and receiving are synonymous) My believing in Jesus Christ for my so great salvation came about in just the opposite way as yours. I believed and thoroughly trusted in Jesus and what He did for me on the cross for my salvation and then the Holy Spirit cleaned up my life. He gets all the credit I was nothing but a lost sinner and I didn’t deserve anything but to be separated from God for the rest of eternity. The fact is as long as I’m still in this old body of sin, I’m still a sinner but one that has been saved by grace through faith! Titus 3:5 (NASB) 5 He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, I sure hope you enjoy the forum and again welcome aboard, CDBJ |

236 | where does the soul go after death | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236534 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. Since Jesus Christ, as the appointed lamb of God, has paid the total price demanded for the penalty of sin, man if free to be escorted into the very presence of God. 2 Corinthians 5:6-8 (NKJV) 6 So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight. 8 We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord. In the Koine Greek of the New Testament it is (PROS in the accusative case which informs us that God actually causes us to be face to face with the Lord) Here is a promise you can take to the bank. John 3:18 (NKJV) 18 He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. I hope you find the forum useful an a blessing, CDBJ |

237 | Can you continue to sin an go to heaven? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236540 | ||
Greetings again, My final comment for the morning in conclusion to your previous statement. “But there is not one word in the scriptures that tells me that Jesus is going to maintain it for me. That is my responsibility.“ Good luck with that responsibility, and I did say luck, since it you doing the work I’d rather rely on what God has promised. 2 Timothy 1:12 (KJV) (B) for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day. 1 Peter 1:4-5 (KJV) 4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. (Who are kept by the power of God) This carries more punch in the Koine Greek! It says: The ones by the power of God being Guarded, as in the following with emphasis on “phrouroumenous” which is a verb participle, present tense that is continues action at the present time, passive voice, the believers receive the action of the verb, accusative case, i.e. God causes the action to occur, masculine gender, second person, plural,i.e. all you believers are included. Taus en dunamei theou phrouroumenous. God’s word has a lot to say about keeping care of his own, the battle is the Lord’s and greater is He that is in you then he who is in the world. And with that I will say good night! Psalm 4:8 (KJV) 8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety. CDBJ P.S. You would be doing yourself and the forum a big favor by not just giving a plethora of address for a verse of Scripture but writting it out because the past forty 47 years as a believer has taught me that no one will take the time to look them up and read them: if they are written they will be read! |

Your question: (Is the rest really just a back seat and not worry too much about this?) For starters the NASB is about as close as one can get to the original language of the Koine Greek. Now doing what you suggest is like letting a baby fend for its self after it is born! We are commanded to study God's Word on a daily basis. 2 Timothy 2:15 (NASB) 15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth. It’s impossible to know the will of God apart from the Word of God. CDBJ |

239 | Did Adam / Eve know the meaning of evil | Bible general Archive 3 | CDBJ | 157519 | ||
Hi Doc, The fact that our first parents sinned and what they knew, as a result, shows something in a verse that I am not all that sure about. Genesis 3:22 (NASB) Then the Lord God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; and now, lest he stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever"— The words, like one of Us; would that be the same as saying as God, being one in essence, knowing the difference between good and evil? I don’t see how it could possible mean one, as only one of the members of the trinity, because the same exact nature of God is present in all three members, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and all three are equal in knowledge. Just out of curiosity, which one of the members of the trinity do "you" suppose said that? Incidentally, this is by no means a trick question by any stretch of the imagination, I have just never thought about it, CDBJ |

240 | Did Adam / Eve know the meaning of evil | Bible general Archive 3 | CDBJ | 157528 | ||
Thanks Doc for the response, I think I would lean more toward Robert Jamieson, A. R. Fausset and David Brown then Gill. I’m not sure if there is any truth in this saying but I remember someone stating, “The longer and more words that it takes for one to explain themselves is usually a sign that they know less about the subject.” I don’t even know if I have that worded exactly right and yet you probably even know who said it, plus the exact wording. A prime example, Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. I enjoy your post, CDBJ |
