OK, if the NIV is generally a poor translation, then what would you say is the one perfect Bible translation in the English language? | ||||||
1023 | MOSES WAS BURIED IN MT NEBO | Jude 1:9 | Radioman2 | 80712 | ||
Deut. 34:5-6 (ESV) So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord, [6] and he buried him in the valley in the land of Moab opposite Beth-peor; but no one knows the place of his burial to this day. You write: 'Moses and Elijah still have to die.' The scripture says: "Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab." So why does he still have to die in the Tribulation? You write: 'Moses' body was taken up by Michael right after he died.See Jude1:9.' Jude 1:9 (ESV) But when the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, was disputing about the body of Moses, he did not presume to pronounce a blasphemous judgment, but said, "The Lord rebuke you." OK, we've seen Jude 1:9. Where in this verse does it say a word about Moses' body being "taken up" by Michael? The verse says nothing of the kind. So what happened to the body of Moses? He was buried. Buried -- not "taken up." The Bible tells us in plain English, 'he buried him in the valley in the land of Moab.' I'll tell you what is wilder than the Bible -- it is making assertions about the Bible without any scriptural support. |

1024 | What is the morning star here? | Rev 2:28 | Radioman2 | 80705 | ||
True or False? "A Tribulation saint does not have the eternal security you and I do." False What are you implying? That the condition for reception or retention of salvation is keeping the law in the OT, faith in the NT church age, and enduring to the end during the Tribulation? I've heard of dispensationalism, but this is pushing it too far. |

1025 | What is the morning star here? | Rev 2:28 | Radioman2 | 80703 | ||
'Isaiah 14:12 Look how you have fallen from the sky, O shining one, son of the dawn![22] You've been cut down to the ground, O conqueror of the nations! [22] translator's note. The Hebrew text has rjv-/b llyh ("Helel son of Shachar"), which is probably a name for the the morning star (Venus) or the crescent moon.' (New English Translation www.netbible.com) You write: "ignore the niv in Isaiah 14:12 calling Lucifer the morning star.this is a poor translation" Prove it. What, if any, evidence do you have to show that Isa. 14:12 in the NIV is a poor translation -- i.e., what evidence other than your own personal bias, your dislike of it? No one should translate scripture to fit their own doctrinal preconceptions. |

1026 | 2 Corinthians- What is 'suffering' | 2 Cor 1:5 | Radioman2 | 80694 | ||
Joe: Thanks for pointing out once again the error of WOF teaching. Actually nothing ever could create a theological problem for WOF disciples, the reason being that, properly understood, they have no theology. It would appear that WOF followers never were persuaded of their beliefs by sound scriptural evidence, but rather by the charisma and oratorical skills of their prophets. Otherwise, why is it that when one challenges them to provide scriptural support, they don't have any? All they can do is attack the character of those who de-bunk WOF doctrine. By the way, opponents of WOF doctrine need not and do not attack the character of WOF preachers and prophets. Opponents of WOF have scriptural evidence to prove what they assert. The only one who launches ad hominem attacks are the defenders of WOF. Radioman2 |

1027 | Do you have to be baptized to be saved? | Rom 6:3 | Radioman2 | 80693 | ||
The reason you don't see water salvation in the Bible is that it simply is not there. The only way to extract that erroneous teaching is to take a few verses out of context, isolate them and completely ignore what the entire rest of the Bible has to say on the subject of salvation and the sole condition for salvation -- which is faith. | ||||||
1028 | holy spirit guide men to write bible | 2 Tim 3:16 | Radioman2 | 80678 | ||
Ray: I would say that "Morning Star" would be a sound choice for the words in 2 Peter 1:19. In fact, the Amplified Bible, in that verse, has it: "Morning Star." AMPLIFIED 2 Peter 1:19 And we have the prophetic word [made] firmer still. You will do well to pay close attention to it as to a lamp shining in a dismal (squalid and dark) place, until the day breaks through [the gloom] and the Morning Star rises (comes into being) in your hearts. It seems that Morning Star in 2 Peter 1:19 refers to the same person, Jesus Christ, who is also the Morning Star of Revelation 22:16. Notice, too, that both passages are in reference to the Second Coming. New King James Version Revelation 22:16 "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star." Well done, Ray. I had never before until now seen the relationship of Morning Star in these two passages. Thank you for pointing this out to me. Grace and Peace, Radioman2 |

2 Corinthians 9:6-7 "New Testament believers are never commanded to tithe. Matthew 22:15-22 and Romans 13:1-7 tell us about the only required giving in the church age, which is the paying of taxes to the government... "The guideline for our giving to God and His work is found in 2 Corinthians 9:6-7: "Now this I say, he who sows sparingly shall also reap sparingly; and he who sows bountifully shall also reap bountifully. Let each one do just as he has purposed in his heart; not grudgingly or under compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver." (www.gty.org Click on Issues and Answers.

1031 | why do you think that jesus went to hell | 1 Peter | Radioman2 | 80671 | ||
Did Christ take back the keys? Nowhere in the Bible is there a clear verse of Scripture to indicate that Christ TOOK BACK any keys or that Satan had possession of keys. In the entire King James Version of the Bible, the word "key" appears in 6 verses. The word "keys" appears in 2 verses. Thus, "key" and "keys" appear a total of 8 times in the KJV. The following is ALL the Bible has to say about key(s): Jud 3:25 And they tarried till they were ashamed: and, behold, he opened not the doors of the parlour; therefore they took a key, and opened them: and, behold, their lord was fallen down dead on the earth. Isa 22:22 And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open. Lu 11:52 Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered. Re 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; Re 9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. Re 20:1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. Mt 16:19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Re 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. |

"2. The Olivet Discourse "It was the Lord, Jesus Christ, who taught about the sign of His second coming on the Mount of Olives during the final week of His life on earth. What He said ought to parallel what the Scripture teaches in other places, since Christ is the author of the visions of Daniel (cf. Dan. 10:5-6; compare with Rev. 1:13-16), the instruction in the Olivet Discourse (Matt. 24:1:1ff) and the book of Revelation (cf. Rev. 1:1ff). When the *sequence* in Matthew 24:3-31 is examined, it will be found to parallel what Paul taught in I Thessalonians 4-5 and II Thessalonians, particularly chapters one and two, and what we read in Revelation. (...) "4. The Book of Revelation "If Daniel gives us the time frame for the end times and the Olivet Discourse gives us a thumbnail sketch of the *sequence* of the end times, then Revelation gives us the details" (emphasis added) (www.solagroup.org/). - - - - - - - - - - FytRobert: I hope you will find this supplemental information to be of use.

1035 | Judas Iscariot saved our not? | Rom 10:9 | Radioman2 | 80640 | ||
"...with remorse [with little more than a selfish dread of the consequences] he (Judah) brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders," (Ampflified Bible) - - - - - - - - - - NKJV Matthew 27:3 Then Judas, His betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, was *remorseful* and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, "Judas felt the sting of his own guilt, but this was not genuine repentance. There is a godly sorrow that leads to repentance, but Judas' remorse was of a different kind, as demonstrated by his suicide (Matt. 27:5). Compare 2 Cor. 7:10" (MacArthur Study Bible, Word Publishing, 1997). NASB Matthew 27:3 Then when Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that He had been condemned, he *felt remorse* and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, AMPLIFIED Matthew 27:3 When Judas, His betrayer, saw that [Jesus] was condemned, [Judas was afflicted in mind and troubled for his former folly; and] with remorse [*with little more than a selfish dread of the consequences]* he brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders, [Exod. 21:32.] GOD'S WORD Translation Matthew 27:3 Then Judas, who had betrayed Jesus, *regretted* what had happened when he saw that Jesus was condemned. He brought the 30 silver coins back to the chief priests and leaders. (Emphasis added to the above Scripture quotes.) |

1036 | Judas Iscariot saved our not? | Rom 10:9 | Radioman2 | 80638 | ||
After Peter denied knowing Jesus, he later was filled with the Holy Spirit and under his preaching 5,000 men "who heard the word believed." It is said that Peter and virtually every other (true) Apostle died a martyr's death for their testimony and the cause of Christ. After Judas betrayed Christ, he allegedly repented of his sin, then to prove the sincerity of his repentance went out and committed another sin -- suicide. By their fruits you shall know them. Is suicide the fruit of the Spirit or the works of the flesh? Are converts and proven Christian character the fruit of the Spirit or the works of the flesh? All the "faith without works is dead" people, to be consistent, would have to recognize that, when comparing the two, there is a distinct difference between Judas, the "son of perdition" who went to "his own place", and Peter -- the Apostle, human author of two NT books and Christian martyr. |

AMPLIFIED Acts 1:25 To take the place in this ministry and receive the position of an apostle, from which Judas fell away and went astray to go [where he belonged] to his own [proper] place. ************* Robertson's Word Pictures of the New Testament "To his own place (eiB ton topon ton idion). A bold and picturesque description of the destiny of Judas worthy of Dante's Inferno. There is no doubt in Peter's mind of the destiny of Judas nor of his own guilt. He made ready his own berth and went to it."

(http://www.biblestudytools.net/Dictionaries/EastonBibleDictionary/) ************* Smith's Bible Dictionary Ju’das Iscar’iot The end of Judas. -- (1) Judas, when he saw the results of his betrayal, "repented himself." (Matthew 27:3-10) He saw his sin in a new light, and "his conscience bounded into fury." (2) He made ineffectual struggles to escape, by attempting to return the reward to the Pharisees, and when they would not receive it, he cast it down at their feet and left it. (Matthew 27:5) But, (a) restitution of the silver did not undo the wrong; (b) it was restored in a wrong spirit, --a desire for relief rather than hatred of sin; (c) he confessed to the wrong party, or rather to those who should have been secondary, and who could not grand forgiveness; (d) "compunction is not conversion." (3) The money was used to buy a burial-field for poor strangers. (Matthew 27:6-10) (4) Judas himself, in his despair, went out and hanged himself, (Matthew 27:5) at Aceldama, on the southern slope of the valley of Hinnom, near Jerusalem, and in the act he fell down a precipice and was dashed into pieces. (Acts 1:18) "And he went to his own place." (Acts 1:25 ) "A guilty conscience must find neither hell or pardon." (5) Judas’ repentance may be compared to that of Esau. (Genesis 27:32-38; Hebrews 12:16,17) It is contrasted with that of Peter. Judas proved his repentance to be false by immediately committing another sin, suicide. Peter proved his to be true by serving the Lord faithfully ever after. --ED.) (http://www.biblestudytools.net/Dictionaries/SmithsBibleDictionary/) |

Does the bible speak of any other type of fast other than food? Fasting is defined as "abstinence from food and/or drink as an element of private or public religious devotion. "Abstinence from food and/or drink." This is the only type of fast the Bible speaks of. |

The Spirit HIMSELF NASB Romans 8:26 In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; "Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God; the LORD is one." There is no such thing as a "Christian godess." Nonsense! gbennett76: You allege: 'Many theologians and scholars realize that the Holy Spirit written as, "Pneuma" in Greek everytime it appears in the New Testament, is a feminine being.' Many theologians and scholars? Name one. Even if you can, the mere fact that many theologians and scholars realize or believe something to be true doesn't make it true. You allege: 'Note that Pneuma is a feminine word in Greek.' No, it isn't. 'The noun "pneuma" (Strong's #4151) is neuter in Greek' (Vine's Complete Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words, W.E. Vine, Nelson, 1984). You write: 'The dove has long been a symbol of the Goddess in the Ancient Near East, and was never used to symbolize a god.' What the dove has been a symbol of in the Ancient Near East is irrelevant in this discussion. We are concerned only with what the dove is a symbol of in the Bible, which is God's only inspired revelation to man. God's complete revelation to man is the 66 books of which the Bible consists. We have no need or desire to consult books of mythology and idolatry found in the writings of ancient mystics or apochryphal writings to determine God's truth. Rather we turn to Scripture only. We don't go scavenging among garbage cans looking for a scrap of food when God has prepared for us a feast in His Word -- the Bible. The Kabbalah is not the inspired Word of God -- period. Who the goddess Sophia is or what her name means proves nothing. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob -- the God of the Bible -- does not have a wife. Neither Proverbs nor the Song of Solomon give any indication that God ever had a wife. That idolators worshipped Asherah alongside YHWH proves nothing. To identify YHWH as the lover/husband of Asherah is nothing less than blasphemy. God is spirit (John 4:24 NIV). You allege: "They agree to create, and so here we are." The notion that God needed the agreement of His "wife" before He could create is utter nonsense. Neither the term nor the concept of "God-the-Mother" appears anywhere in the Bible. To allege that Moses and Aaron carried Asherah "poles" is ludicrous. "Rabid Yahwists" is a derogatory and blasphemous term, one that, in the context of your post, shows obvious hostility to the Bible and anyone who does not believe that God is a "she." |
