941 | fall upward? | 1 Tim 4:1 | jlpangilinan | 33338 | ||
Your statement: I also rest upon the inspired word of God and on the promises made by the Saviour himself. One of my favorities is John 5:24 "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life." In this verse we are promised a present possession, life and that we shall not come into judgement. How then can we suggest that the Lord Jesus was mistaken in his promises? My answers: Jesus Christ never mistaken in his promises! But my friend we have to define who are those believed in Him and hear his Vioce and have everlasting life. Can you justify who are those? I do believe in these verses also: Joh 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. Joh 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. We have to define who are those consider belongs to His flock that no one can snatch away. How we could be consider to His flock? is that by your saying that you are save? is that because your pastors baptize you in trinity? Christ define who are those consider saves: Mt 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. Jesus Christ define that if you stay in Him until the end you shall be saved. That is the definition to stay in Him forever. Now how can you define you self as save? How long are you in Christ 10 years 20 years, is that consider the end. It is clear that Jesus define that who stay with him until the end shall be saved. It is not by matter of 1 month or 2 or 3 but until the end. It is dangerous to be consider save in our own definition, or human definition: 1Co 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. He said Re 2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: "unto the end" meaning until the end of our life, not for the matter of months. Heb 6:4-6 stated the tendency of falling away. Heb 6:4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, Heb 6:5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, Heb 6:6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame The promises of Christ are belongs to serve Him continually: Ro 11:22 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. So it is very clear my friend, that become consider as belongs to flock of Jesus Christ is who stay with with Him until the end: Mt 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. It is Jesus Christ define that my friend not me, not you! because no one can justify us but God. We have to stay in Him forever to be consider belongs to His flock! God bless, Johnny |

942 | fall upward? | 1 Tim 4:1 | jlpangilinan | 33327 | ||
I am agree with you, there are tendency of falling that is why Desciples reminding us to be watchful and vigilant!: 1Pe 5:8 ¶ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Apostle paul also said: 1Co 10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. If we are very confident that we are save, and not thinking that there are tendency of falling it is dangerous. I do believed that Jesus Christ said no one can snatch His flocks from His hands: Joh 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: Joh 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. Joh 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. But we have to know the definition of Christ of whom are considered belong to His flock. And Christ define that those will be save are those who stay forever in Him: Mt 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. So it is hard to define who are save or not. Who are those belongs to the flock of Christ or not. Who will justify that we are save you, me, others. Jesus mention that Mt 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. So it is God can define whose belong to his flock! If we stay with him forever, we consider save. God bless, Johnny |

943 | "none righteous" | Rom 3:18 | jlpangilinan | 33324 | ||
Ro 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: Ro 3:11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. Ro 3:12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Ro 3:13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: 13. Ro 3:14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: Ro 3:15 Their feet are swift to shed blood: Ro 3:16 Destruction and misery are in their ways: Ro 3:17 And the way of peace have they not known: Ro 3:18 There is no fear of God before their eyes. If we read these verses through 3:18 we would understand who was Paul talking about and of whom not seeketeth God, those who are not fear God. As you mentioned Job, Enoch are good persons, Noah also considered as a "perfect" man in his generations: Ge 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. If we just read the romans 3:10 it will contradict the other part of the bible that stated that there are people who feard God, i.e. Moses, Abraham and other who are faithful to God. If we read 3:18 of romans it will explain that tho who are written in the 3:10 are those who are not feared God. I know you will agree that too many persons stated in the bible that followed God, especially the prophets. There are also explanations that Romans 3:10 means the corruption of man from his original righteous as "likeness and own image of God" as mentioned in Genesis. As we all know God created man "perfect" as His "Images and Likeness" but after the disobedience of man (adam and eve) those original righteous lost. And we need Jesus Christ to redeem from that lost. 1Co 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. Here are some input from EASTON BIBLE DICTIONARY: "Disobedience of Man" is frequently and properly used to denote only the moral corruption of their whole nature inherited by all men from Adam. This inherited moral corruption consists in, (1) the loss of original righteousness; and (2) the presence of a constant proneness to evil, which is the root and origin of all actual sin. It is called "sin" I hope it would help God bless, Johnny |

944 | Does the Bible ever lie? | Bible general Archive 1 | jlpangilinan | 33301 | ||
Praisemaster, Bible doesnt lie, if there are character in the bible that lied it is the character and not the bible. It is the bible said that those characters lied. Do you think if I tell to my father the truth that one of my brother telling him a lie, I am I liar also? It is the bible telling the truth that there are characters in the bible that lied. For example we know that Heroed lied to the wisemen when he told to them that if they find the baby (Jesus Christ) let him know and he worship the baby. It is herode lied and not the bible because it is the bible stated that herode lied. God bless, Johnny |

948 | Can the church forgive sin? | Matt 6:12 | jlpangilinan | 33166 | ||
When Jesus Christ taught us to pray, I think it is very clear that only God can forgive our sins: Mt 6:9 ¶ After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Mt 6:10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Mt 6:11 Give us this day our daily bread. Mt 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. Chirch is subject unto Christ He is the head of Church so it is Him can forgive our sins: Eph 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Eph 5:24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. |

949 | Please answers my points | Deut 5:21 | jlpangilinan | 32688 | ||
Emmaus, If I said that you serve idols you must defend that you are not serving it, kindly provide me the passages that will support you that kneeling in the graven images is teaching of Jesus Christ then I will stop saying that you are actually worshiping idols. That is why I said that because I saw it catholic that they are kneeling in graven images, bringing in the streets putting flowers on them pray for them, and reciting rosary to them, is that true or not? Now if you think doing those things is biblical teaching why you dont try to provide me the passages that will stated so you can tell me that kneeling in graven images is really a biblical teaching. That is your duty my friend to defend, to explain what you believed in. If you think that kneeling in graven images is teaching of Jesus Christ, then it is you duty to give us the proof. Its seems that you dont want to try answering my points, you just escaping from the topic. What you do is to get one point that it is very far from what I am asking you to defend. I know that you know that when I asked you those question what I want really is biblical support and if you can defend what you believed in. 1. When you pray the rosary to the saints or any novena to any saints, is that biblical or not? If it is biblical kindly show me the passages that will support that praying for the saints is teaching of Jesus Christ. I hope you can provide your answers. 2. When you kneel in graven images, is that biblical or not? If it is biblical please provide me the passages that will support that kneeling in the front of any graven images is really teaching of Jesus Christ. I hope you can provide passages that will support that kneeling in graven images is really teaching of Jesus Christ. If you really believed in your congregeation you should defend it against who criticize it. If you believed in something you must ready to defend what you believed in. I hope you will provide answers in my questions God bless, Johnny |

950 | Pray Rosary | Deut 5:21 | jlpangilinan | 32645 | ||
Emmaus, You Said:Catholic doctrine does not approve serving idols, it condems it. We do not pray for saints. We ask saints, living here on earth or in heaven to pray with us and for us. We are all in Christ. Death does not separate us in Him. Are you denying that you pray the rosary? is that biblical too? where in the teaching of Jesus Christ that we should pray to Mary so we will get closer to Jesus as catholic doctrine taught. What Jesus said was" I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes into the father but by me" or we should put additional but you should pray to saints or Mary?. I dont believed that you dont serve the idols, catholics bringing graven images in streets putting flowers on them kissing them and praying for them are denying this practices? you kneel in the front of graven images when you pray or are you denying that also. Please provide your answers here. You said"I hope in honor of the literal commandment as you quoted it, you have destroyed all photographs of all your loved one" My Answer: Why do I have to destroy photographs of my love ones, can you put a little logic? do I pray for them to help me closer to God NO! did I bring them to streets and put flower to them and recite a rosary to them? NO! Did I kneel in front of them NO! I know what the differences between the two! Please provide answers. I have many things to ask about you faith I hope you will be open to answers those. God bless, Johnny |

952 | can u kill yourself an still get to heav | Ex 20:13 | jlpangilinan | 32451 | ||
It was written in the bible, "Ex 20:13 Thou shalt not kill. " it includes yourself. It is God has the authority to take anyone lives because He ws our creator. It is also written: Mr 12:31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. How could you love yourselves by killing it or to get suicide. But your question really is if she still go to heaven? That questions only God can answer. It is God can justify if she go to hell or heaven. It is God knows everything why your foster mom killed herself. Wait until final judgement when you saw her in heaven thats the time you can assure where she is. God bless, Johnny |

953 | Isn't Jesus the ONLY WAY to heaven? | John 14:6 | jlpangilinan | 31845 | ||
Joh 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Joh 14:7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father Jesus said that He is the way to heaven, we must believed that instead of believing in others. Your question is "still want to exalt Mary and Saints can save" God only can justify that it is Him knows who are going to be with Him. For me for example I am very amazed of what Paul done in his evangelical journey and I dont think there is something wrong with that. But all the glory is for Jesus Christ, because Paul did what he has done because of his love to Jesus Christ. I think it wrong if you start praying for those saints, it is not biblical. Or you started knelling in thier images, bringing flowers, parade and all of things. |

954 | How much should you forgive? | 2 Tim 3:16 | jlpangilinan | 31826 | ||
Mt 18:21 ¶ Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? Mt 18:22 Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. Here are the clear example of Jesus Christ to Peter of how many time we should forgive. I know it is not a literal seven times seventy, but forgive as you can forgive meaning no limit. But forgiveness is different from tolerance the crime. For example if someone killed your brother you can forgive him but the law has to do with the killer. I dont think we just allow him that next time it is your father or mother he is going to kill and still we forgive him always. God bless, Johnny |

958 | Is it a sin to routine drink alcohol | 1 Corinthians | jlpangilinan | 31669 | ||
Dear TooTooSmart, No! it is not a sin to drink alcohol, make sure that you will not get drunk. Today in our time even doctors encourage some patients to drink some wine because it helps if you have problem like high blood pressure, but drink it moderately or maybe two shot a day. Even Paul encourage Timothy to do the same thing: 1Ti 5:23 Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities. So it is depend on why you are drinking alcohol or wine, if it will helps you it is fine. God bless, Johnny |

959 | type of wood the cross is made of | Eph 2:16 | jlpangilinan | 31498 | ||
I think it is not mention in the bible of what kind of wood used for the cross of Jesus Christ. (if somebody can give you its good) Easton Bible Dictionary Entry on Cross in the New Testament the instrument of crucifixion, and hence used for the crucifixion of Christ itself (Eph 2:16; Heb 12:2; 1Co 1:17-18; Ga 5:11; 6:12,14; Php 3:18). The word is also used to denote any severe affliction or trial (Mt 10:38; 16:24; Mr 8:34; 10:21). The forms in which the cross is represented are these: Crucifixion a common mode of punishment among heathen nations in early times. It is not certain whether it was known among the ancient Jews; probably it was not. The modes of capital punishment according to the Mosaic law were, by the sword (Ex 21:1-36), strangling, fire (Le 20:1-27), and stoning (De 21:1-23). This was regarded as the most horrible form of death, and to a Jew it would acquire greater horror from the curse in De 21:23. This punishment began by subjecting the sufferer to scourging. In the case of our Lord, however, his scourging was rather before the sentence was passed upon him, and was inflicted by Pilate for the purpose, probably, of exciting pity and procuring his escape from further punishment (Lu 23:22; Joh 19:1). The condemned one carried his own cross to the place of execution, which was outside the city, in some conspicuous place set apart for the purpose. Before the nailing to the cross took place, a medicated cup of vinegar mixed with gall and myrrh (the sopor) was given, for the purpose of deadening the pangs of the sufferer. Our Lord refused this cup, that his senses might be clear (Mt 27:34). The spongeful of vinegar, sour wine, posca, the common drink of the Roman soldiers, which was put on a hyssop stalk and offered to our Lord in contemptuous pity (Mt 27:48; Lu 23:36), he tasted to allay the agonies of his thirst (Joh 19:29). The accounts given of the crucifixion of our Lord are in entire agreement with the customs and practices of the Roman in such cases. He was crucified between two "malefactors" (Isa 53:12; Lu 23:32), and was watched by a party of four soldiers (Joh 19:23; Mt 27:36,54), with their centurion. The "breaking of the legs" of the malefactors was intended to hasten death, and put them out of misery (Joh 19:31); but the unusual rapidity of our Lord's death (Joh 19:33) was due to his previous sufferings and his great mental anguish. The omission of the breaking of his legs was the fulfilment of a type (Ex 12:46). He literally died of a broken heart, a ruptured heart, and hence the flowing of blood and water from the wound made by the soldier's spear (Joh 19:34). Our Lord uttered seven memorable words from the cross, namely, (1) Lu 23:34; (2) Lu 23:43; (3) Joh 19:26; (4) Mt 27:46; Mr 15:34; (5) Joh 19:28; (6) Joh 19:30; (7) Lu 23:46. 1. The crux simplex (I), a "single piece without transom." 2. The crux decussata (X), or St. Andrew's cross. 3. The crux commissa (T), or St. Anthony's cross. 4. The crux immissa (t), or Latin cross, which was the kind of cross on which our Saviour died. Above our Lord's head, on the projecting beam, was placed the "title." (See Crucifixion.) After the conversion, so-called, of Constantine the Great (B.C. 313), the cross first came into use as an emblem of Christianity. He pretended at a critical moment that he saw a flaming cross in the heavens bearing the inscription, "In hoc signo vinces", i.e., By this sign thou shalt conquer, and that on the following night Christ himself appeared and ordered him to take for his standard the sign of this cross. In this form a new standard, called the Labarum, was accordingly made, and borne by the Roman armies. It remained the standard of the Roman army till the downfall of the Western empire. It bore the embroidered monogram of Christ, i.e., the first two Greek letters of his name, X and P (chi and rho), with the Alpha and Omega. (See .) |

960 | Is God's elect the only ones to be saved | 2 Cor 4:3 | jlpangilinan | 31496 | ||
John 12:40-43 is the right verses. Sorry I put a wrong verses to support my answers 2 cor 4:3 and 4 These are the verses that I am going to support my answers. Joh 12:40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. Joh 12:41 These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him. Joh 12:42 ¶ Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue: Joh 12:43 For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God. It is God blided them, why? Like what I said they dont believed in Him. If you see at John 12:43 They praise of men more than the praise of God God bless, Johnny |
