You said "One thing Abraham tithed long before the law Gen 14:20. Abraham did it to show honor. Can you think of any better way to put our faith to work than by honoring God with our money? Not because we have too but because we can. When you willingly give something that is so essential to our daily existance your showing your dependance in not on the gift but on the receiver of the honor." It is abraham give the tenth of all no one required him but he give, it is different for what happening today, the pastors required thier memners to give the tithe instead of love offering. Where did abraham his tithe anyway? Ge 14:16 And he brought back all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people. Ge 14:17 ¶ And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale. Ge 14:20 And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all. He slaughter Kings and took thier goods and give tithes of all. Do you think Christ will allow that kind of action? Do you think Christ will happy if I am going to kill somebody and took thier goods and give tithes of all? Please answer. To convice me that tithe ten percent is requirements for Christians today please show me any single teaching of Christ that He required anyone to give tithes to Him. He is God He is the most authority to receive tithes. Authority of receiving tithes are given to levi: eb 7:5 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham: Heb 7:12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law. Are sons of levi that given the authority to receive tithes? (if you are jew I am sorry you have the authority under the law) God bless, Johnny |

722 | predestined or free will | Rom 8:29 | jlpangilinan | 62497 | ||
I presented those passages not to prove that He is not omipresent I presented those passages so you can explain it to me if God is omnipresent why those verses written that way? I asked you about the creation of Lucifer do you think that is not a valid question? What question do you want to answers anyway? You post, my friend so you should be anticipated that not everyone will agree with your statement. I am here to clarify and yet you ignore to answer. Its ok, I was thinking that you are open for criticsim. You said, "you are not going to fight with me" so do I, I am not participating to this forum for fight. To those want the real fight, please go to afganistan, iraq, or in pakistan, the real fight its there. I dont know if you really want peace Johnny |

723 | predestined or free will | Rom 8:29 | jlpangilinan | 62401 | ||
What is the purpose of preaching the gospel to all nations if there are limits already to whom who can go to heaven? It good to just wait? the outcome is still the same! those predestined are those who will go to heaven. You said"AND God knows everything. So, from the beginning it was impossible for Him to be ignorant of who is and who isn't in the Lamb's Book of Life." can you please show the passages that will support word by word in this. I will appreciate that. I would like to asked some questioned here regarding your post that God know everything from the beggining to the end. Me I personally accepted that I dont know if God really knows or not. I personally accepted that my limited mind cannot decern those things, and I leave it to God. 1. If God knows from he beggining to the end it is that mean before He created Lucifer He knews that it will rebel againts Him and there are too many angel too that will joined lucifer? could you please show me the scriptures that will say Yes. 2. God knows that lucifer will rebel against Him and God still created lucifer even He knows that too many people will suffer and go to Hell? Do you mean God responsible for the evil because even He knew that if He created lucifer too many people will suffer and too many souls will tormented in Hell because He is creating someone that will start the suffering of Mankind. Ge 22:12 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me. In this verse God tested the faith of Abraham, so He will know if Abraham feared Him, if God know already the result of the test of Abraham why He should testing abraham? Is he insecured kind of God? Ex 32:11 And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand? Ex 32:14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people. In the verses above moses pray to God not to funish His people, and God repented, why God repented to the things that He know? He knew that He will not going to punish His people but then repented to the evil He though to His people? I have many things to ask you please explain to me those things first. God bless, Johnny |

You are right tithes is for God, under the law of moses the people of Israel commanded to give thier tithes to levites. But in the time of Christ, He never require anyone to give thier tithes. The apostle also not required thier folowers to give tithes to them. Giving that taught in the new testament goes: 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. according to purposes of the heart not 10 percent 20 percent but purposes of the heart. When the law given to israel it is sepcific to them and not for a Christian, when God give the ten commandments it is specific to them: De 5:3 The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day. The lord made the covenant"with them not including thier father but "who are all of us here alive" we are not included them, not even thier fathers. tithe is included in the law of moses, and it cannot justify us: 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. Why we have to required people to do things that cannot justify us? Or you will say that tithe is not included in the law of moses? God bless, Johnny |

Tithes is very important part of Jewish religion, under the law of moses the isralites are commanded to give tithes to the levites. Nu 18:26 Thus speak unto the Levites, and say unto them, When ye take of the children of Israel the tithes which I have given you from them for your inheritance, then ye shall offer up an heave offering of it for the LORD, even a tenth part of the tithe. In the new testament Christ never required anyone to give ten percent of thier income, the teaching of Christ and the apostle goes: 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. Not ten percent nor 20 percent but the purpose of the heart if you can give more than half of your income it is acceptable to God but ten percent is not a requirements. Tithes is included in the law of moses and it cannot justify us: 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. Heb 7:5 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham the authority of receiving tithes was given to the levites not to any pastors of today, but if you notice too many are teaching that not requiring a christian for a good works but requiring tithes. you have to be very patient because there are people try to be a decendants of levites in terms of collecting tithes.

Welcome to the forum! In the old testament God ended His devine creation in seventh day and blessed it and sanctified it. Ge 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

Yes! angels are considered sons of God, and Michael are belong to them. Job 2:1 ¶ Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD. But Christ is the only begotten Son. God bless, Johnny |

Yes! they are sons of God but Jesus Christ is the begotten son. Joh 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. Angel are considered as sons of God. ob 1:6 ¶ Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them. We as human we received the power to become sons of God if we believed Jesus Christ. Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: God bless, Johnny |

731 | What are God's Names? | Gen 1:1 | jlpangilinan | 61907 | ||
I am talking of the hebrew scriptures, there is no letter "J" its impossible that JEHOVAH is the true name of the God the Father. the only letter that you found there is YHWH no one now alive to testify how they pronounce it in the time of moses. JEHOVAH only came out 14th century even the jews people which is belong to the Israel doesnt know about it how come that this is the name of the Lord God. If you want to believed me please show me the scriptures that Jesus Christ mentioned that the name of His Father is JEHOVAH or YAHWEH. The name of God the father that written is this. Isa 63:16 Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting. "FATHER" everlasting father. We dont have to create any name for Him as Christ mentioned everytime in the new testament "Our Father" "My Father" Mt 6:9 ¶ After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Did Christ mentioned here, hallowed be thy name "JEHOVAH" or "YAHWEH"? God bless, Johnny |

732 | What are God's Names? | Gen 1:1 | jlpangilinan | 61824 | ||
In the hebrew scriptures you cannot find Jehovah or Yahweh there. The hebrews scriptures stated that the name of God that Moses know is YHWH but in our time no one heard how that name pronounce. word JEHOVAH only came out in the 14th Century I dont belived that God has no name before the 14th Century. Hebrew alphabeth has no letter "J" how come that the name of God is JEHOVAH which is included the letter "J" which is not included in the hebrew alphabeth. Y"A"HW"E"H ("A" "E")also an additional in the YHWH that written in the hebrew scriptures, the put "A" "E" to pronounce it YAHWEH. If you notice that Christ never mentioned the name of God the Father either it is JEHOVAH or not (of course in the bible of JWitnesses you can find it.) If the name of God the Father is Jehovah why Crist not told it to His desciples but instead He called His "Father" and our Father. In the book of Isa 63:16 Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting. It mentioned there "Father" thy name is from everlasting. God bless, Johnny |

734 | Who wrote the truhth? | Matt 7:29 | jlpangilinan | 61819 | ||
I know that He is a Man at the time. I know that He has the body that can die. My question really is about the two desciples, Peter assesses that Christ know everything, as John wrote that passages, and if you notice Christ did not correct Peter when he said that, meaning peter was right when he said that Christ knew all things. Matthew has different assessment, he wrote that Jesus marveled when He found that great faith in the person of Roman officer. Who write the true assessment? Peter as written by John or the one of Matthew? God bless, Johnny |

735 | Who wrote the truhth? | Not Specified | jlpangilinan | 61799 | ||
In this verse, Peter said that Jesus know all things Joh 21:17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep. But in this verse Matthew said that Christ surprise when he found great faith in a roman officer Mt 8:10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. If peter was right assessing that Christ know all things, Christ should know about that faith of roman officer why he marvelled? Do you think Christ marvelled if He know all things? God bless, Johnny |

737 | Is Mary still a virgin. | Matt 1:25 | jlpangilinan | 60923 | ||
After giving birth to Jesus Christ of course Mary is not a virgin anymore, I dont think that a woman after giving birth is remain virgin. The scriptures said that she has other daughters Mt 13:55 Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? Mt 13:56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things? The catholic has explaination for that verses, they explains in that particular time the sisters and brother mentioned are cousins of Christ and not a brother and sisters. Its up to you if you believe in thier explaination or believed in the scriptures. God bless, Johnny |

738 | Age of Solomon when he took throne? | 2 Sam 12:1 | jlpangilinan | 60922 | ||
He succeeded his father on the throne in early manhood, probably about sixteen or eighteen years of age. Easton Bible Dictionary entry on: Solomon peaceful, (Heb Shelomoh), David's second son by Bathsheba, i.e., the first after their legal marriage (2Sa 12:1-31). He was probably born about B.C. 1035 (1Ch 22:5; 29:1). He succeeded his father on the throne in early manhood, probably about sixteen or eighteen years of age. Nathan, to whom his education was intrusted, called him Jedidiah, i.e., "beloved of the Lord" (2Sa 12:24-25). He was the first king of Israel "born in the purple." His father chose him as his successor, passing over the claims of his elder sons: "Assuredly Solomon my son shall reign after me." His history is recorded in 1KI 1-11 and 2CH 1-9. |

739 | follow-up on the signs | Matt 24:29 | jlpangilinan | 60753 | ||
No man can exactly know when is this going to happen. 2000 years ago it was mentioned by Christ, that Mt 3:2 And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Until know every pastors preach that the second coming is at hand, that at hand has 2002 years already but until now no man can exactly kmow the time. Many founders of religion try to propecies that such as Russel of Jehova's witnesses that propecies I think twice but until he died his propecies never happened, his successors also tried but then the outcome is the same. This is really to show us that Christ mentioned was true: Mt 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. Mt 24:37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Mt 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, We have to be watchful everyday not for the signs but for our daily lives. God bless, Johnny |

740 | Can one be saved by just repenting alone | Acts 16:1 | jlpangilinan | 60533 | ||
It is depend upon the situation, If we remember the one on the cross that asked forgiveness and received the promises of Christ. At the time there is no time for baptism but Christ forgive his sins. Fogiveness really is between you and God, if God forgive you in repentance alone then that's like what happen in the cross. But if are really forgiven and recieved forgiveness you should follow the teaching of Christ. There are people repent and die afterwards and have not time for baptism, God can justify that whether they are save or not. But for us that has the time to follow the teaching of Christ we should follow His teaching: Mt 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: God bless, Johnny |
