582 | when and where was Esther born? | Esth 2:7 | jlpangilinan | 69664 | ||
Brooklyn, Welcome to the forum! The entry about Esther doesnt mentioned date of her birthdate but her book took place 465 B.C. so if we analyze the she could be born betwenn 520 B.C. or depend on how old she was when they co authored her book with her cousin mordecai Esther the queen of Ahasuerus, and heroine of the book that bears her name. She was a Jewess named Hadas'sah (the myrtle), but when she entered the royal harem she received the name by which she henceforth became known (Es 2:7). It is a Syro-Arabian modification of the Persian word satarah, which means a star. She was the daughter of Abihail, a Benjamite. Her family did not avail themselves of the permission granted by Cyrus to the exiles to return to Jerusalem; and she resided with her cousin Mordecai, who held some office in the household of the Persian king at "Shushan in the palace." |

Ro 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Upon some points a believer is absolutely sure.

584 | Is the dietary law still in effect | Acts 10:13 | jlpangilinan | 69552 | ||
It is not applicable for a Christian Ac 10:13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. Ac 10:14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean. 14. Torrey Ac 10:15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. Christ taught us that we have to be clean in our heart. Mt 23:25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. Mt 23:26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. Mt 23:27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. The clean and unclean animals was part of the law of moses, we cannot justified by those: Ac 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.

585 | wrong teaching | Matt 15:14 | jlpangilinan | 69548 | ||
Run way from that teaching, If we belong to the church and you find out that the taught you the doctrine which is not in the bible, what you have to do of course is get out of that church: Mt 15:14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. |

586 | Why do they call Jesus the lamb of God | John 1:29 | jlpangilinan | 69546 | ||
In the old testament the lamb was use to offering and sacrifice to those who sins against the law Christ was the ultimate sacrifice that is why called the lamb of God: Joh 1:29 ¶ The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. In the symbolical language of Scripture the lamb is the type of meekness and innocence (Isa 11:6; 65:25; Lu 10:3; Joh 21:15). The lamb was a symbol of Christ (Ge 4:4; Ex 12:3; 29:38; Isa 16:1; 53:7; Joh 1:36; Re 13:8) Christ is called the Lamb of God (Joh 1:29,36), as the great sacrifice of which the former sacrifices were only types (Nu 6:12; Le 14:12-17; Isa 53:7; 1Co 5:7). The Christians also called lamb: Joh 21:15 ¶ So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs Lu 10:3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. |

588 | Do catholics share the same bible? | Amos 1:1 | jlpangilinan | 69525 | ||
They have thier own translations, here in the Philippines they have bible that really for catholics. They usually use the Good news bible. They consider the books written by thier saints i.e. saint thomas aquinas and many more. And they more consider the traditions instead of teaching of the Bible. Most of the catholics are not bible oriented, here in the philippines because of the 330 years of invasion of spain the bible called here"libreta de secreto" the only authority to read and to explain it, is those priest and they so called studied in the "college of apostle" which is again against to the statement of the bible. Re 1:3 ¶ Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. If you have some discussion to them, if you critic some doctrine that not in the bible, they depend it by thier traditions and not what the bible written. here in the Philippines, before the spanish came, the native of BULACAN (one of our town) had this practice to dance in thier "anitos" gods of fertility in order to have children if you have not. The catholics simply adopted that teaching, now in the BULACAN the people thier continue to pray for fertility now not in in thier "gods" but to sant clair. I asked this to the priest if it is ok, because the practice is the same "pagan" and he said at least now they know how to direct thier prayer to saint clair, and not to ANITOS. Is this Bible doctrine? NO. God bless, Johnny |

589 | Why do catholic call Mary mother of God. | Amos 1:1 | jlpangilinan | 69520 | ||
Quote"See Luke 1:43. Who is the "Lord" spoken of in this text? Is Jesus God? Is Mary his mother? Jesus is a Divine Person, the second Person of the Trinity, who took on a human nature in additon to his divine nature. But women give birth to persons not natures. Mary is the mother of God, but not his creator, since she is his creature and creation." I do believed that mary was the mother of Jesus in his human form but not in His God form, if mary was the mother of God? what is this God created His own mother, did God needs mother? baby Jesus needs mother for the human form that will use (flesh to crussified) and not need mother being God. We know that Jesus Christ being in the form of God was made in the likeness of men, here mary comes in the picture: Php 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: Php 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: If Jesus Christ was born God and mary His mother why Jesus said this to His father: Joh 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. He said that His father, is the only true God, here in this instance He did not consider Himself as God because He is in the human form. God bless, Johnny |

590 | Why do catholic call Mary mother of God. | Amos 1:1 | jlpangilinan | 69518 | ||
The reason why catholics consider mary as a mother of God because it was taught to them, and thier members believed even without trying to find out whether it is true or not. The bible clearly stated that mary was the mother of Jesus when He was in the human form. Nowhere in the bible stated that God needs or has His own mother otherwise it is God created His own mother. I respect Mary as a mother of Jesus in His human form but not as a mother of God: Lu 1:30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. Most of the catholics believed in traditions instead of the bible, they did not consider the bible as a sole authority, for them Bible is not enough in term of doctrine for salvation. But scriptures said:Isa 34:16 Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them. The catholics has thier own dogma, so what thier church said even it is not in the bible they going to believed it. For example the black cross, here in the Philippines, they taught that if you kiss that black cross some hundreds of your venial sins was forgiven, if we look that doctrine it is nowhere in the bible but they embrace it and believed it. God bless, Johnny |

591 | Are christians sinners or not? | Rom 3:23 | jlpangilinan | 69213 | ||
Shelly, Romans 3:23 dont means that because we have sins we have the conclusions that no one is perfect it will contradict other verses of the bible that stated that there are perfect even they have sinned: Ge 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. 1Ki 15:14 But the high places were not removed: nevertheless Asa's heart was perfect with the LORD all his days. 2Ch 15:17 But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days. Job 1:1 ¶ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil. God declared Job a a perfect and upright man, do you think God lie by saying Job is perfect Job 1:8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? God cannot lie: Tit 1:2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began; Jesus Christ give this commandments to everyone, do you think He will give it if He knows that no one can do it. Mt 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. God bless, Johnny |

592 | Are christians sinners or not? | Rom 3:23 | jlpangilinan | 69212 | ||
People are sinners, Christians of course commit sin, but not as what we are before before knowing Christ. For example, if I am a hired killer before, I killed in order to earn a living, then I am called for salvation, I dont think that I will commit this kind of sin again. Paul said: Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. Being a Christian, Christ live in us and not ours, so it is impossible to commit the same sin if Christ lives in you, if I still can be a hired killer at the same time a Christian what kind of christ is that lives in me?

593 | Haunted Houses | Acts 19:16 | jlpangilinan | 69211 | ||
Welcome to the forum! The evil spirits will not possess the home but the people inside that home. They are not really after for that home but for the person that stay in that home. They can possess us if we have weak faith in God, and if God allows them to trouble us. 1Sa 16:14 ¶ But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD troubled him. Ac 19:13 Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. Ac 19:14 And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so. Ac 19:15 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? Ac 19:16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. |

595 | babies baptism | Acts 2:38 | jlpangilinan | 68772 | ||
Be honest my friend, if we continue the verse to 40, and 41 it is stated that they gladly received his word, do you think little babies capable of understanding the word and received it and be baptized? The promise to thier children, of course they were received the bapptism if they understand already the doctrine, and I know you knew that "children" is not mean always "young ones or babies, even how old are you children is atill applicable to you. Ac 2:40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. Ac 2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. You write "We are simply not going to agree on this. Having now clearly stated our positions there is no point in going over the same ground again and again." It is very simple to me to agree, just show me the scriptures that will support your claim, and I will agree. Be reminded that this is a bible forum, so we should source our answers with the passages in the bible and not from somewhere else especially if it is about the doctrine of the bible. God bless, Johnny |

596 | making wine.Did Jesus make a mistake. | Bible general Archive 1 | jlpangilinan | 68665 | ||
I agree with you that taking some "wine" is good and is not a sin. 1Ti 5:23 Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities. As Paul advise timothy to drink wine, instead of water for his stomach sake is a clear evident that taking some wine is not prohibited in the bible, but drunkeness did. i agree also to Tim Moran that not all alcoholic brevarage is safe, as we have here once in the Philippines, that can blind the drinkers even in a small amount of that said alcoholic brevarage. Taking some wine is good, even my doctor advise me to take some red wine, a one or two shot of brandy everyday, it is good to the heart and helps level the colesterol in the body, (research shows that anyway, although it also show that the reaction of the body to the alcohol is the same for everyone) My motive of taking small amount of wine really is to improve my health, it is the same that I am taking medicine if the doctor prescribe, as taking my exercise regularly as my doctor advise. I dont think it is a sin. God bless, Johnny |

597 | making wine.Did Jesus make a mistake. | Bible general Archive 1 | jlpangilinan | 68664 | ||
Hi Hank, Send me red wine and I will drink that. My doctor advise me to take some redwine, it is good for the heart and also help level of blood colesterol. I believed that I can drink wine (and it is not a sin) if my motive really is to improve health it is the same of taking medicine as doctor prescribe. But other reason I dont think I will drink wine. In the first place most of the wine I dont like the taste. I dont know if I read the thread correctly, if really it is a sin to drink a wine, my argument is it is ok if it will help your health improve. Drunkeness, of course we know it is prohibited, but Paul advised Timothy to drink wine for his stomach sake. So it is not really sin to take wine (more good if it is for health purposes) Tim was right not all the wine mentioned in the bible, is the same that we have today. Here in the Philippines, we have sometimes a alcoholic brebarage that can blind the drinkers even in small amount (thatnks God that company closed already) There are cases also that some of the drinkers cannot get off the bed and die in the morning of last night when they take that brevarage. Me myself did drink that brevarage I said when I was in high school (I am really a heavy drinker that time, before I know Jesus Christ). God bless, Johnny |

598 | making wine.Did Jesus make a mistake. | Bible general Archive 1 | jlpangilinan | 68656 | ||
You wrote"Regardless, there certainly isn't a clear Scripture either way about drinking or not drinking. My point in responding to these kinds of threads is simply to ensure that one position isn't arbritarily relegated to the 'stupid' argument category. ;-) I simply want to remind people that words are containers with which we pack a lot of meaning that may or may not have been intended originally." I believed that you can drink, but not to be drunk. My doctor advise me to take some red wine, because it is good for the heart and helps maintain blood colesterol. Even paul advise timothy to take some wine. 1Ti 5:23 Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities. so it is clear that drinking wine is not prohibited, but drunkeness did. God bless, Johnny |

599 | babies repentance | Acts 2:38 | jlpangilinan | 68639 | ||
Emmaus you are right that there other opinion oppose you post "You write" Think of all the new Testament "whole households" that were baptized in Acts. Nowhere are children mentioned as being excluded. What is the likelihood that all these were childless households? See Acts 2:38-39;" You quoted this but not really give the right explanation to the one asking: you said that they dont exclude the children, but you know that little children dont know how to repent: Ac 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Ac 2:39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. Peter start it with "repent" do you think little babies would know how to repent? I know catholics baptized 1 month old babies do you think they know how to repent? please show me in the scriptures that there are little babies, that repent and baptized by the aopostle. God bless, Johnny |

600 | light fellowship with one another? | 1 John 1:7 | jlpangilinan | 68628 | ||
I dont know if you are looking for this passages or you are asking the explaination in this verse. Walk in light, we have to follow Christ, to have fellowship with one another, here we need our co churches to have fellowship with them to help one another increase our faith, through the help of one another. 1Jo 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 1Jo 1:8 ¶ If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness God bless, Johnny |
