123 | The Biblical achilles heal | Luke 17:3 | TheFinalSQL | 120335 | ||
There is a big difference between an apology and repentance. Esau was sorry, apologizing in his way, to the point of tears, but he did not repent and Jesus did not forgive him. The definition of repentance/repent seems to be your sticking pont. Perhaps Paul from 2 Corithians can assist you. Here is part of chapter 7: 2 Corinthians 7:9-11 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing. For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter. I think the 7 times in one day is an extreme example. Going through through 7 cycles of the above in one day would be quite a roller coaster ride of emotions to say the least. I believe Jesus gave that number to express that there is no limit. If you repent you will be forgiven. If you do not repent Jesus will not forgive you. Praise the Lord! Norm |

126 | When is the third day since Sunday? | Luke 24:21 | TheFinalSQL | 117832 | ||
Here is a scripture that may help you better understand how the Jews viewed Time. 1 Samuel 30:12-13 And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs, and two clusters of raisins: and when he had eaten, his spirit came again to him: for he had eaten no bread, nor drunk any water, three days and three nights. And David said unto him, To whom belongest thou? and whence art thou? And he said, I am a young man of Egypt, servant to an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days agone I fell sick. Praise the Lord! Norm |

127 | When is the third day since Sunday? | Luke 24:21 | TheFinalSQL | 117844 | ||
No, Friday. Friday is day 1 Saturday is day 2 Sunday is day 3 John 19:31-33 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him. But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs: The sabbath day began at our evening on Friday. Praise the Lord! Norm |

128 | When is the third day since Sunday? | Luke 24:21 | TheFinalSQL | 117851 | ||
Our day begins at midnight. The Hebrew day began in the evening, dusk. Genesis 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. He died on the Hebrew equivalent of Thursday, which is our Friday. Praise the Lord! Norm |

129 | Norm - Where is the third night? | Luke 24:21 | TheFinalSQL | 117862 | ||
Genesis 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. For purpose of this argument we will say the sun sets at 6PM and rises at 6AM Day equals light Night equals darkness Friday - light - Death to 6PM Friday - darkness 6AM - 6PM to Midnight Saturday - darkness - Midnight to 6AM Saturday - light - 6AM to 6PM Saturday - darkness - 6PM to Midnight Sunday - darkness - Midnight to 6AM Sunday - light - 6AM to Resurrection Three periods of light, two periods of darkness. I see what you are saying now. The Jews' preparation day, also mention in John 19:31 John 19:42 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand. The preparation would begin in the evening on our Thursday. Thank you for being persisent! I now see the light. Thursday - darkness - 6PM to Death to Midnight Friday - darkness - Midnight to 6AM Friday - light - 6AM to 6PM Friday - darkness - 6PM to Midnight Saturday - darkness - Midnight to 6AM Saturday - light - 6AM to 6PM Saturday - darkness - 6PM to Midnight Sunday - darkness - Midnight to 6AM Sunday - light - 6AM to Resurrection Praise the Lord!

131 | if Jesus died on Friday and rose Sunday | John | TheFinalSQL | 118445 | ||
Jesus died on the preparation day(the day before the sabbath) John 19:31-33 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away. Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him. But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs: He rose on the first day of the week(the day after the sabbath): John 20:1 The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre. To help understand how time is viewed: Genesis 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. The preparation day begins on our Thursday evening. The first day of the week is Sunday. Now you may say that Thursday to Sunday is 4 days, but remember, it is 3 Hebrew days and 3 Hebrew nights. Praise the Lord! Norm |

132 | Messiah's name in OT period? | John 1:1 | TheFinalSQL | 111478 | ||
Here are a few scriptures that may assist you: Isa 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. Jer 23:6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. Zec 6:12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD Praise the Lord!

133 | jesus sat on the right hand of god | John 1:1 | TheFinalSQL | 117710 | ||
The right hand is the power of God: Matthew 26:64 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. Both sitting on the right hand and coming in the clouds? Sitting/sat might not mean what we think it does. The verse you mention: Mark 16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. Looking at the Strong's definition for "sat" number 2523: 1) to make to sit down a) to set, appoint, to confer a kingdom on one Hebrews 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; Jesus finished what he was set out to do. He sat or was appointed, the kingdom. Sitting on the right hand says Jesus is the power of God. Thank you Jesus!! Praise the Lord! Norm |

134 | Help for John 1:1 | John 1:1 | TheFinalSQL | 120393 | ||
Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. Jesus was not born Lord, neither was he born Christ. He was made Lord and Christ. Christ, as the Amplified John 1:1 above says is the Word, existed in the old testament times: 1 Corinthians 10:4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ. Jesus did not: Hebrews 10:1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect. The old testament is filled with the shadow of Jesus, not Jesus himself. Galatians 4:4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, Praise the Lord! Norm |

And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him. Romans 10:14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

137 | What does Scripture mean by no works? | John 3:5 | TheFinalSQL | 111346 | ||
I also appreciate the dupe as I was about to answer the other until I noticed that it is addressd to Colin. First of all by works the scripture is refering to works of the law: Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Water baptism is not a work of the law. It was established by Peter. Lets look at this in chronological order. You can read the entire section of this scripture but here is the most important: Matthew 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. Notice Jesus says will give, a future event. This brings two questions: When did Jesus give the keys? What did Peter bind and loose on earth? Keys given: Luke 24:45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, The keys are an understanding of the scriptures, which at the time was the Old Testament. Now to find what was loosed and what was bound we have to look at the teaching of the Apostles. The first four gospels are the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. The book of Acts is the life and ministry of the Apostles and it is here we find their teaching. Acts 2:42 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. As of Acts 2:42 the teaching or doctrine is given. We are told they continued stedfastly in the doctrine of the Apostles, thus, whatever they taught can be found in the previous verses. In these preceeding verses we see Peter preaching, starting with: Acts 2:14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: And ending with: Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. Then came acknowledge to the first step of salvation: Acts 2:37 Now when they heard this,... You have to hear the Word Continuing Acts 2:37 ...they were pricked in their heart,... Step 2, Conviction/Faith/Belief ...and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Now, Peter binds on earth: Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent,... Step 3: Repent, turn from your ways to Gods ways ...and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins,... Step 4a is the doctrine of baptisms (See Hebrew 6:1,2) consisting of two parts. The order of the two parts is irrelevant. If you want your sins remitted you must be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. ...and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Step 4b Receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost. John 3:8 tells us everyone born of the Spirit will make a sound. I've seen many arguments that water and spirit are the same, or everywhere water is mentioned it's some metaphor or something for spirit. I do not know why so many fight the water. All we have to do is look at the inclusion of the Gentiles to see water and spirit are not one in the same: Acts 10:44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. At this time they had not been baptized in the water. Why is the order different than the day of Pentecost?(Acts 2) Because the Jews NEVER would have baptized the Gentiles in the water. God had to show teh Jews he was including the Gentiles in the plan of salvation. Look at their reaction: Acts 10:45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. How did they know they received this most precious gift? Ac 10:46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, If the water and spirit are the same then they would be done. But they are not: Acts 10:47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? Acts 10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. Whether anyone likes it or not, that is what Peter bound on earth. Peter did this with the authority Jesus gave him and with full knowledge of the scriptures. Thank you Jesus! Praise the Lord! Norm |

138 | What does Scripture mean by no works? | John 3:5 | TheFinalSQL | 111408 | ||
I seen what you wrote in other posts in this thread. I like how you worded it. Water baptism alone, does not save us. If it did, we could save our selves or throw somebody in the water and they would be saved. How would you answer Peter's question (Acts 10:47) Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? Praise the Lord! Norm |

139 | Does this mean baptism for salvation? | John 3:5 | TheFinalSQL | 117765 | ||
Romans 6:3-5 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Praise the Lord! Norm |

John 3:8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. John 16:7-15 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you. Praise the Lord! Norm |
