8241 | Consider Rev 11:19 | Bible general Archive 1 | EdB | 9282 | ||
This is a good question, now consider Revelation 11:19, where we clearly see an Ark of the Covenant in the heavenly tabernacle. Many feel this is the original from which Moses patterned his Ark from. Ex25:9 That may be, but could it not also be the actual Ark that Moses constructed, kept safe in Heaven to one day return to earth? I would see no reason for an Ark of the Covenant to be in Heaven since the Covenant was between God and man. God needed no reminder of the covenant, but man did. Hence he was given the Ark and mercy seat. Now if there is an Ark in heaven could it be that God to preserve it removed the Ark from man’s presence? We see God’s Glory leave the temple in Ezekiel 10 is it not also be possible that God removed the Ark and mercy seat at that time? |

8242 | On the use of Study Bibles | 2 Tim 3:16 | EdB | 9278 | ||
Now that I have just posted a response quoting from a book I read this and say Oh NO! What have I done? I haven't post to the forum in about 2 weeks and my first post is already wrong. :-0 I agree with what has been said here. In most cases you can just give a summary, I do not believe we have to reproduce the whole article to make a point. Many times just saying MacArthur in his book "whatever" said "thus and such", is more than enough. I do not need or want the whole article. If I feel a need to read the entire article, I can always ask for the whole article to be sent by e-mail. May I get off my sword now?:-) |

8243 | Did David or Elhanan kill Goliath? | 2 Sam 21:19 | EdB | 9276 | ||
Nolan yours and Prayon's answers are quite right but I think this says it most clearly. From the Book "When Critices Ask" ask by Norman Geisler and Thomas Howe publisher Victor Press, pg. 176 'The 2 Samuel text is probably a scribal error in copying the manuscripts and should read "Elhanan... slew Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite." This conculsion is supported by a parallel report of the story in 1 Chronicles 20:5 which has the missing highlighted phrase "Lahmi the brother of," thus showing it was the brother of Goliath that Elhanan killed and not Goliath, whom David slew just as 1 Samuael 17 reports.' |

8244 | Please explain to me? | Titus | EdB | 8726 | ||
Mark obliviously if Donnag goes in the direction God has given her she will be okay, and I pray that is what takes place. I really don’t feel right about discussing this any further in an open forum. I wish I had your E-mail address. |
||||||
8245 | Please explain to me? | Titus | EdB | 8658 | ||
Mark your evidently still monitoring this thread. Would you put my heart to ease, please. Explain why you kept overriding my pleas to you, to wait until we got the whole story? What made you feel you had to respond instead of waiting? Why did you feel you had to counter every thing I said? What made you feel you had to attack me? | ||||||
8246 | What is an ASHERAH POLE? | 2 Chr 24:18 | EdB | 8534 | ||
Asherah was the pagan goddess of fertility, some say she was Baal’s mother others say she was his consort. In any case the people that worshipped the pagan god Baal also worshipped Asherah. The term Asherah pole defines something similar to a Native American totem pole. In other words it was a log or tree trunk that was carved with the image of Asherah. Often this was very crude and many times the tree limbs were utilized to form arms and legs with the trunk given a general body shape. This form of idol worship caused the people of Israel many problems in their relationship with God as recorded in First and Second Kings. Where we see the unrighteous Kings setting up Asherah poles and altars and the righteous Kings tearing down the altar and using the Asherah pole as fire wood to totally desecrate the place. |

8247 | I need to know if this is a cult? | Titus | EdB | 8460 | ||
Donnag, You should go with what the Holy Spirit has put in your heart. In your previous responses you never mentioned you had the leading of God on this. Definitely do what God has shown you to do. Donnag I just want you to make sure you haven't been incorrectly influenced by someone on this forum into believing something that is not there. My heart goes out to you as I suspect you have left something very important out of this whole story. I pray God leads you to where you need to be. |

8248 | I need to know if this is a cult? | Titus | EdB | 8440 | ||
Donnag - A "visitor" what do you mean a visitor? Do you mean while you were praying and God was speaking another voice came to you? Or do you mean a visitor to the church? If so what exactly did he say and in what context. |
||||||
8249 | Is God advising you on Donnag? | Titus | EdB | 8436 | ||
Mark you say don’t be ridiculous, I didn’t think I was. I thought I was trying to get to the bottom of the story so I could give Godly, Biblically sound advice. Mark are you telling me God gave you the interpretation of Donnag’s dream? To answer your question have “I” ever cast out demons? No “I” never did, however I have used the authority of Jesus’ name to have them leave. I don’t spend a lot of time with demons since they are the defeated foes. I’m really not too afraid of them because I don’t believe they can cross the blood line. I can not say I have ever been in Donag’s place because I’m still trying to figure out where that is at. I haven’t told Donnag to stay, to leave, to fight, to run, I haven’t done anything yet but ask questions. I just want to know what we are dealing with. |

8250 | Mark what is driving you? | Titus | EdB | 8435 | ||
Mark What do you mean you don't need more details now her husband is involved. Your ginving advice that may be coming between a husband and a wife, without knowing what is going on. |
||||||
8251 | I need to know if this is a cult? | Titus | EdB | 8430 | ||
Donnag there is still more to this story. Your husband's ministry is connected to this woman in anyway? Does your husband have the same concerns about this woman you do? It sounds like your being excluded from the ministry, why do you stay? | ||||||
8252 | I need to know if this is a cult? | Titus | EdB | 8424 | ||
Mark Why not wait until you have the whole story? How do you know that the dream was from God? How do you know that dream wasn’t from Satan trying to scare Donnag out of the church? Twice now someone has asked a question in this forum about their church in both cases the consensus of opinion was run, leave, get out. When did Christians become such cowards? The Word says the Gates of Hell shall not prevail. No where in the Bible does it tell us to take the path of least resistance. In fact the Word says we will probably be hated, despised and thrown down. It also says we have the victory! Don’t we have the obligation to pray? Don’t we think God can turn a bad situation around? Too many split from churches, that is why we have so much arguing within the Christian ranks. Quite frankly that is why we look a little foolish to the world. We claim power, victory and that prayer will change things. However when something happens we turn our tail and run. There was a long discussion in this forum on false teachers, this is exactly why there is false teachers instead of resisting we leave. The false teacher turns out a whole church of deceived, corrupted and badly taught disciples and they spread through other churches like cancer. I don’t know anything about Donnag and this church and unless your getting your information somewhere other than this forum neither do you. Did God call Donnag to this church? If God did then he had a purpose, has that purpose been completed? What is God’s will in all of this? Why is Donnag asking the forum instead of seeking God on this? Why are we trying to answer for God? Could God be using this whole experience to move Donnag to the closer walk with Him? Was Donnag sent to the church for just this particular situation to turn it around and put it back in order? Does Donnag have another motive? I’m not trying to be mean or spiteful here and I hope I haven’t offended you or Donnag. It’s I just take giving people advice very serious and especially when it is advice that could effect their walk with God. Let’s find out why Donnag is at the church, what does “curses the people mean”, and a few other things, what brought up the issue of size, and what Donnag thinks God wants to take place? Let’s find out what the problem is, then we can give Biblically sound advice. Most of all it will let us know what the problem is so we a forum of believers can stand in agreement in prayer, believing our God can solve this or any problem and expect to see God be God before us. |

8253 | Will you tell us more? | Titus | EdB | 8417 | ||
Donnag, You will get a lot of people giving you opinions and I'm amazed how many do so without knowing the complete situation. When you first asked the question you implied you were worried about the size. In this response you mention the pastor curses the people she is trying to minister to and a dream you had. What do you mean she curses the people she is trying to minister to? Does she call them bad names? Does she speak disaster into their lives? Is she not doing what you think should be done? What exactly brought you to the church in the first place? And what is keeping you there? |

8255 | Yet another capitalization question? | Heb 7:26 | EdB | 8233 | ||
I responded see answer to your question the Glory of Israel. I think it should be smalll letters as it in essence is saying God in not a human. | ||||||
8256 | The Glory of Israel | Num 23:19 | EdB | 8232 | ||
I beleive in both of these it is saying God is not a Human. I like the NLT for both of these 1 Samuel 15:29 NLT And he who is the Glory of Israel will not lie, nor will he change his mind, for he is not human that he should change his mind!" Numbers 23:19 NLT God is not a man, that he should lie. He is not a human, that he should change his mind. Has he ever spoken and failed to act? Has he ever promised and not carried it through? So I would say in both of these it should be small capitalization. |

8257 | Time lapse between Gen 1:1 and Gen 1:3. | Gen 1:2 | EdB | 8229 | ||
DocSpock, Your right the gap theory is more than just a pipe dream it is a fairly well known theory made popular by two very popular study Bibles, Scofield's and Dake's. The idea is thought to have come from Thomas Chalmers a Scottish theologian of late 1700's early 1800's. The biggest problem to it is undermines the gospel by allowing death, sickness, killing, and suffering to occur before the fall in the garden. The theory has found favor by many as an effort to reconcile the Bible with ages placed on earth and various fossils and formations found within the earth. All of these are based on carbon dating. Carbon dating is now held in suspect by many scientist as being totally inaccurate on objects older than 4-6 thousand years. |

8258 | Please accept my apology. | Bible general Archive 1 | EdB | 8185 | ||
Radioman of course I accept your apology. I accepted it when you first gave it and I thought I responded to either in the forum or by E-mail. If not please forgive that oversight on my part. Brother one day we are going to join hands in heaven and know the answers to all our questions, and I suspect we will laugh heartily at all our attempts to explain what we now see through the glass darkly. I look forward to sharing that moment with you my brother. Be blessed and be a blessing |

8259 | Who was Lemuel? | Prov 31:6 | EdB | 8122 | ||
Nolan I have always been taught that Jewish tradition held a similar view as Matthew Henry's. In fact I believe this is where Mr. Henry got it. From everything else I have read on the subject this would agree with what we know of the relationship of Solomon and his beloved mother Bathsheba. As one writer I read stated I too can almost imagine Solomon playing a game of hide and seek running through the palace as Bathsheba calls out to her little Lemuel. Be blessed and be a blessing |
||||||
8260 | EdB, Did He die on Thursday? | John 19:31 | EdB | 8121 | ||
Nolan he sounds like a good friend to have. Yes please do ask him as I would be very interested in his reply also. | ||||||
