1 | What is Secular Humanism? | John 15:5 | KINDNESS | 15232 | ||
Webster says "secular" relates to worldly or temporal concerns. Our courts have designated "Secular Humanism" a religion. I read years ago in the Manifesto of SH that they do not believe in the supernatural and stresses an individual's dignity and worth and capacity for self-realization through reason. Scripture teaches "we can do nothing without Jesus Christ". We are to have the mind of Christ who humbled Himself and made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Himself the form of a servant etc. Phil 2:5-11 We are encouraged in the Scriptures to honor God with our lives and wait patiently for God to reward our obedience in His time. Temporial concerns can be our enemy. By faith we trust like Jesus in Isa 53 and 1 Peter2:23 that God will set all things streight in His time. Secular Humanism is an enemy of The Christian faith. We have the Reformation. They have the Renaissance. One has to do mostly with the mind and the other with the spirit and soul as well as the body. Kindness |

Hi Ray, What is this personal copy you keep refurring to?? Are you rewriting the Bible according to you or what? What is the purpose of asking Q's based on your rewritten copy of God's Word?? If we are not all looking at a standard translation of the Bible how can we ask and answer Q's? I use the NKJV most of the time. NASV is a good English version. I don't always trust the NIV or Living. How long have you been a student of the Bible? What kind of training have you had to help with interpretation? Please don't take my Q's to be critical. I just would like to know your background. Contend for the faith once delivered to the saints. Kindness | ||||||

5 | What or Who is wisdom? 1 Cor 1:30 | John 15:1 | KINDNESS | 14725 | ||
Thanks Steve for that observation. I think you are right. But how I think of it for myself is that when I am obedient to the Word of God and walk in the Light, Christ becomes my wisdom, He lives in and through me sharing His wisdom with me so that I have the mind of Christ 1 Cor. 2:16 available always to me. Unfortunately I am not always obedient nor do I always understand or discern what His will is, to follow. I guess it takes lots of practice. In the Col.1:15-17 vs. I was trying to make a connection between Prov.8:30 "the master craftsman" and Christ being the Creator of all things. All the persons of the Godhead were involved in Gen.1 but in the NT Jesus Christ gets the credit. Do you think in Prov. 8 we have wisdom personified? Why is wisdom spoken of in the femine gender? Is it a Hebrew language thing? Waiting for your input. Thanks. Kindness |

6 | Who is our Savior? Titus 1:3,4 | John 15:1 | KINDNESS | 14722 | ||
YES!!! Steve that is exactlly what I was hoping someone would see. In Isa.43:3,and following we have the God of the OT declairing that He is the only Savior. "I Am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Savior" is "I Jehovah am thy God (Heb) Elohim." So if we conect that with the "I Am's " in John's Gospel don't we see God revealing Himself in Jesus as the Jehovah of the OT to the Jew first and then to all others who will believe? I like your 1 John ref. If the Father sent the Son then He also is the Savior and equal with Son, correct? When Jesus said" before Abraham I Am " He was claming to be equal with the Father and that is why they sought to kill Him, John 8:58.... Thanks Rey for that verse in an other note. Kindness |

7 | What or Who is wisdom? 1 Cor 1:30 | John 15:1 | KINDNESS | 14703 | ||
What is Wisdom? We have explored "what is truth" Can we say that Jesus Himself is Wisdom? Look at 1 Cor 1:30,31 and then check out Proverb 8:12-36 and Col.1:15,16,17. Do you see a connection between thses verses? Can you add some of your own? |

8 | Who is our Savior? Titus 1:3,4 | John 15:1 | KINDNESS | 14701 | ||
Does the Book of Titus teach that God the Father and Jesus Christ are both our Savior and therefore equal with One Another? Compare vs.1:3,4; 2:10,13,14; 3:4,6 and then look at 3:5. I love the beauty of how God's word fits together. Who could ever doubt it is inspired by the living God? Enjoy! Kindness |

9 | Who is the we in John 4:20? | John 15:1 | KINDNESS | 14699 | ||
Ray were these verses submitted by you? Good observation. Are you writing out your own copy (corrected copy) of God's word? My copy is becoming the RED EYE copy. This is the most fun I have had in a while. How comforting to know that the Spirit of God abides with us and is in us to guide us into all truth. I have a Q. to submit about the book of Titus. Look for it next. Kindness |

Greetings Sandman, I do believe you misquoted John 4:22. Doesn't it read "you worship what you do not know"? Not We etc. I do agree with you about the salvation part refering to Jesus who was a Jew/ Savior/ Lamb who takes away the sins of the world not just the Jews. Thanks for your participation. It is encouraging to know that there are believers out there that enjoy a good sword drill. Smile. Kindness | ||||||
12 | In John 18:38 Did Pilate want truth? | John 15:1 | KINDNESS | 14692 | ||
Nolan, What an encouragement to see you tie it all together just the way the Lord has for me. One Spirit ,one Lord, one Truth and one faith which was once for all delivered to the saints. What a blessing to be called into the preciuos Body of Christ. God bless and keep you. Kindness | ||||||

Dear Tim, Thanks! | ||||||
14 | Who is the we in John4:20 | John 15:1 | KINDNESS | 14655 | ||
Great! I am sorry that I gave the wrong referance. The verse I wanted to know about is John 4:22 "You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews." Could you give me insight on that verse please? I agree with you about attitude being the point of what Jesus is getting at. I think Rom.12:1,2 goes well with the worship theme don't you think? Kindness | ||||||

16 | In John 18:38 Did Pilate want truth? | John 15:1 | KINDNESS | 14640 | ||
What is truth? was the question Pilate asked Jesus. In John 8:32 Jesus says "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" In John 17:17 are we being taught that being set apart for God, that is being sanctified, is the way to knowing the truth and being free? Is that the same as knowing the Lord Jesus Christ personally in our lives? Compare with John 14:6 Waiting for your answer. Kindness |

In John 4:20 Who is the "we"? Is it the Jews? Is it the Trinity? I believe it must be the Jews in contrast with the Samaritans since Jesus was making a distintsion between them concerning worship. | ||||||
