Dear sqkeener, Welcome to the forum. Would you please use small caps for your posts? It seems like you are yelling with those large cap questions. I guarantee you that you will still get an answer by writing in small caps. :-) Enjoy the forum. Shalom Azure |

1865 | On Prayer | Bible general Archive 3 | azurelaw | 190629 | ||
Dear Jeff, Thanks for sharing. The sweetest moment I found on earth is when God reveals himself through His Words to me and I am so much moved by the Holy Spirit that I cannot continue my reading of the bible without first falling on my knees to pray. Quite often that I cannot find any words for my prayer at that moment but just : thank you Lord, have mercy on me and be gracious to me. I realized that when we are alone with God, we are speechless. ------- Yes, it is possible to do that. On the "Questions/Notes on verse" box, you just need to type the verse (eg. Gen 1:1), then click "go". You can write a note with the space provided. Shalom Azure |

Dear Jeff and RC, Wow, I love to see this kind of loving and forgiving picture on the forum. John 13:35 "By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another." God bless you, brothers. Shalom Azure |

Dear johnboy, It's sad for me to see your seeking under a wrong motive. Maybe you've found YOUR truth, but we definitely found "THE TRUTH". Mat 5:8 "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." Pray for your soul. Shalom Azure |

1869 | Should Christian men wear a beard? | 1 Chr 19:5 | azurelaw | 190566 | ||
You are welcome, Bearded Bro. While some of my friends prefer to have their hair dyed in order to cover the white hair, I regard myself growing in wisdom with it. Just a comfort to myself :-) Enjoy the forum. Shalom Azure |

1870 | saved seems lost sometimes | Psalm | azurelaw | 190563 | ||
Dear sqkeener1955, There is no single answer to your question. I would suggest you read the books of Job and Psalm. You will see that even the perfect men could experience a backslide in their lives. Rom 7:18-25 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not. For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do. Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. Hope you enjoy the forum. Shalom Azure |

1872 | Should Christian men wear a beard? | 1 Chr 19:5 | azurelaw | 190551 | ||
Dear Bearded Bro, I do not see any scriptural support to forbid a christian man wearing a beard. In fact, beard was regarded as a man's honour in OT time. Are you having troubles for wearing beard, Bearded Bro? Shalom Azure |

Dear Sam84, May your ministry at sunday school be fully blessed. This topic has been discussed in the past. You just need to type "Cain" on the word search box at your right hand corner of the screen, then you will find a number of threads on the discussion. I have read that before, it helps.

1875 | Will we recognize loved ones in Heaven | Rev 7:9 | azurelaw | 190526 | ||
Dear angelinwaiting, ------- Many people state that the first thing they want to do when they arrive in Heaven is see all their friends and loved ones who had passed on before them. I do not think this will be the case. Yes, I do believe we will be able to see, know, and spend time with our friends and family members in Heaven. In eternity, there will be plenty of time for that. However, I do not think that will be our primary focus in Heaven. I believe we will be far more occupied with worshipping God and enjoying the wonders of Heaven to be concerned with being reunited with our loved ones right away. What does the Bible say about whether we will be able to see and know our loved ones in Heaven? When David’s infant son died as a result of David’s sin with Bathsheba, after his time of grief David declared, “But now he is dead, wherefore should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me” (2 Samuel 12:23). David assumed that he would be able to recognize his son in heaven, despite the fact that he died as a baby. The Bible declares that when we arrive in Heaven, we will “be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is” (1 John 3:2). 1 Corinthians 15:42-44 describes our resurrection bodies: “So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.” Just as our earthly bodies were of the first man Adam (1 Corinthians 15:47a) so will our resurrection bodies be just like Christ’s (1 Corinthians 15:47b). “And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality” (1 Corinthians 15:49,53). Many people recognized Jesus after His resurrection (John 20:16, 20; 21:12; 1 Corinthians 15:4-7). So, if Jesus was recognizable in His resurrection body, I see no reason to believe that ours will be any different. Being able to see our loved ones is a glorious aspect of Heaven – but Heaven is far more about God, and far less about our own wants. What a pleasure it will be to be reunited with our loved one, and worship God with our loved ones for all eternity. Source: http://www.gotquestions.org/family-heaven.html --------- Shalom Azure |

Dear Brother Steve, I couldn't agree with you more. May I steal the idea from Mr. C.S. Lewis "....questions which divide Christians from one another often involve points of high Theology or even of ecclesiastical history, which ought never to be treated except by real experts. I should have been out of my depth in such waters: more in need of help myself than able to help others. And secondly, I think we must admit that the discussion of these disputed points has no tendency at all to bring an outsider into the Christian fold. So long as we write and talk about them we are much more likely to deter him from entering any Christian communion than to draw him into our own." (preface of Mere Christianity) The things I concern most in the book of revelation are: 1/ God's sovereignty and glory. It is comforting to see that despite the severe persecution on earth towards the saints, the worships in heaven are so much grand and all believers are part-takers in it. 2/ The letter to the 7 churches provide us with warnings, promises, comforting and encouraging messages. I believe it is part of the reason why John started the book with "Blessed (happy, to be envied) is the man who reads aloud [in the assemblies] the word of this prophecy; and blessed (happy, to be envied) are those who hear [it read] and who keep themselves true to the things which are written in it [heeding them and laying them to heart], for the time [for them to be fulfilled] is near." (1:3) 3/ Jesus' coming to get us to his everlasting glory. There will never ever be anymore tears, temptations, evils; for Satan will be in the lake of fire and have no influence to us anymore forever. Perhaps it's a bit late, yet have a God blessed 4th July. Shalom Azure |

1877 | need to explain | Luke 6:27 | azurelaw | 190482 | ||
Dear Chrisatissac, Sister(?, I guess), I think it is more appropriate for you to seek advice from pastor, elders or godly women at your church. However, I have a few points to make. 1/ Jesus asked us to love even our enemies, what should be the measure of love to take when the one against us is our relatives. 2/ From what you described, you are citing some past events (I think you had been severely hurt) which I can sense your BITTERNESS. That is not good. We cannot love anyone with bitterness in our heart. Bitterness also blinds our sight to know God's will. 3/ Yes, you are right. How can you love someone without a relationship (or link) with him/her! This is your trial. 4/ Please let God's Word speak to you first. I am afraid I did not help much. I will keep you in my prayers, dear Chrisatissac. Shalom Azure |

1878 | s the slave asking for forgiveness? | Matt 18:26 | azurelaw | 190480 | ||
Hi Steve, When I am doing a search of discussions on Mat 18:21-35, I come across with your old post (question). Wow, again I have to say that what a loving and merciful God we have - He forgives our sin before we ask for forgiveness but just humble ourselves and fall to the ground in front of His throne (as the slave did) and admit our debt. Praise the Lord - Salvation by grace alone! Shalom Azure |

Hello, Gene4Christ: Yes, it is pretty hard for me to follow your post with those typos. :-) My suggestion would be: if you have MSword, you may type your post on the word file and spell check it, then copy and paste to the forum. Hope it wouldn't be too much trouble for you. What do you think? Shalom Azure |

Dear Brother Lionheart, Thanks for your kind words and your scriptural supplement to my note. Somehow, I wonder is it sensible for a person to argue on something that he does not think it exist. Shalom Azure |
