581 | explain tithes acording to malachai 3:10 | Mal 3:10 | jlpangilinan | 55174 | ||
Do you mean that we still required to give tenth percent? Can you show me that Christ required us to give ten percent of our income. Nowhere in the new testament that Christ or His disciples required anyone to give ten percent of thier income. The teaching 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. No required percentage, but in the purposes of the heart. God bless, Johnny |

There is no single teaching in the new testament that will require anyone to give 10 percent of thier income to the church. Now if you can show me that Christ required His apostle to give to Him thier tithes please show me and I beleieve. many churches today that did not observe the law of moses but continue to require thier members to give ten percent of thier income. Paul said we cannot justify by the law of moses, and tithe including in the law of moses. 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. If the tithes is including in the law of moses why it is only the tithes that we require to the members it should be all including in the law, part of the law such as stone to death if we saw our brother and sister gathering stick on the day of sabbath. What is it in the tithes that we cannot reject. If we require anyone to give thier tithes we should require them to observe other part of the law otherwise we are hypocrite as scribes. Mt 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. Stated in that verse that we have to be consistent. Instead of recommending to me to attend bible classes about tithing can you please show me any single teaching in the new testament that christ taught that will require us to give 10 percent of our income. Please show me too any of His disciples that collecting tithes from thier church members. In our believed teaching in new testament is about love offering no required amount. 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. Tithes or ten percent is included in the law of moses and it cannot justify us, or you will say to me that tithe is not including in the law of moses? God bless, Johnny |

Meaning you cannot show me any single teaching of Christ in the new testament that will require us to give ten percent of our income. Love offering is important but no required amount this is the teaching that given to us by Christ and His apostles. It is very hard to believed that you reject other law of moses and do part of it, as Jesus said it is the same thing what scribes do. Christ I believed set Himself as an examples to us. If tithe or ten percent is important he will make Himself as example into it. When he taught that baptism is important He done it by setting Himself as an example, He asked John to baptize Him in the river of Jordan. Mt 3:13 ¶ Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. Mt 3:14 But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? Mt 3:15 And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. Mt 3:16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: Did Christ required Himself to give ten percent? the answer is NO. To those who required thier members to give ten percent of thier income, they always quoted malachi 3:10 as a promise, if you started reading it from 3:6 it was stated that it is specific to Israel because they are bound by law of moses. Are we Jew we are not and we are not bound by law of moses but by grace. It is very clear that law of moses cannot justify us as I quoted in my last post, and tithe is including in the law of moses. I did not say that giving is bad, but there is no required amount if you can give all of your salaries it is acceptable to Him but there is no required amount. Please show me that tithe is a teaching of Christ, and I will believed you. Paul never required his churchmember to give tithes he work his own to earn his living and to serve the church, he was a tent maker during his evangelical journey. This is the great examples of serving Christ. Again I challenge you to show me that single teaching of Christ that will require us to give ten percent. God bless, Johnny |

584 | New Testament/ Old Testament | Matthew | jlpangilinan | 18018 | ||
First I will try to explain to you the OLD AND NEW TESTAMENT: The Old Testament is divided into three parts:, 1. The Law (Torah), consisting of the Pentateuch, or five books of Moses. 2. The Prophets, consisting of (1) the former, namely, Joshua, Judges, the Books of Samuel, and the Books of Kings; (2) the latter, namely, the greater prophets, Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel, and the twelve minor prophets. 3. The Hagiographa, or holy writings, including the rest of the books. These were ranked in three divisions:, (1) The Psalms, Proverbs, and Job, distinguished by the Hebrew name, a word formed of the initial letters of these books, emeth, meaning truth. (2) Canticles, Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes, and Esther, called the five rolls, as being written for the synagogue use on five separate rolls. (3) Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, and 1 and 2 Chronicles. Between the Old and the New Testament no addition was made to the revelation God had already given. The period of New Testament revelation, extending over a century, began with the appearance of John the Baptist. The New Testament consists of (1) the historical books, viz., the Gospels, and the Acts of the Apostles; (2) the Epistles; and (3) the book of prophecy, the Revelation. The division of the Bible into chapters and verses is altogether of human invention, designed to facilitate reference to it. The ancient Jews divided the Old Testament into certain sections for use in the synagogue service, and then at a later period, in the ninth century A.D., into verses. Our modern system of chapters for all the books of the Bible was introduced by Cardinal Hugo about the middle of the thirteenth century (he died 1263). The system of verses for the New Testament was introduced by Stephens in 1551, and generally adopted, although neither Tyndale's nor Coverdale's English translation of the Bible has verses. The division is not always wisely made, yet it is very useful. jOHNNY |

585 | JOHN BAPTIZED JESUS, WHO BAPTIZED JOHN? | Matthew | jlpangilinan | 66875 | ||
He was rebatize by paul. Ac 18:25 This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John. Baptism, John's was not Christian baptism, nor was that which was practised by the disciples previous to our Lord's crucifixion. Till then the New Testament economy did not exist. John's baptism bound its subjects to repentance, and not to the faith of Christ. It was not administered in the name of the Trinity, and those whom John baptized were rebaptized by Paul (Ac 18:24; 19:7). |

587 | Divine Healing? | Matthew | jlpangilinan | 71975 | ||
God indeed dont want us to sick or die, that is why He warns adam and eve the cirscumstances if they are going to eat the forbiddeb fruit. I would like to suggest that healing of every people is in the hand of God. Quote"I would also like to know how you counsel people who pray for healing for someone but do not recieve it. Parents whose children die would be my example." Take a look at God claim: De 32:39 ¶ See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand. They maybe received the answers but it is God who really decide if he is going to add more to our lives. If we remember that paul is apostle of Christ, more than anyman today paul could be a most obedient man of Christ, but not all of sickness he can heal by his prayer. 1Ti 5:23 Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities. At his message to Timothy asking Timothy to drink wine instead of water for Timoty's stomach sake, it is clear that Timothy has stomach illness. Why paul not just pray to God and ask God to heal that sickness. It is clear that it is God decide on who will heal and not as He mention in De 32:39 And who can add one cubit in our life us? the prayer, the council? No it is God. Mt 6:27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? God bless, |

590 | Jesus God/God God still unclear | Matt 1:23 | jlpangilinan | 73128 | ||
They are not the same person, the verse that will prove that they are not the same person is in Mt 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. If they are the same person why Christ did not know the time of His second coming? God bless, |

591 | Jesus God/God God still unclear | Matt 1:23 | jlpangilinan | 73193 | ||
I am a little bit confuse in your statement. Quote"I was not claiming that Jesus was God," "because this was not the voice of Jesus claiming to be God but the voice of God claiming to be God". end of quote. Correct me if I am wrong, are you saying that Christ is not God? Scriptures stated that Christ is God. Christ is God but a separate person from God the Father. Heb 1:8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. God bless, |

592 | Jesus God/God God still unclear | Matt 1:23 | jlpangilinan | 73452 | ||
Your explaination is not biblical, it maybe your conclusion or you maybe you read it somewhere. Some of your explaination is the same when the catholic explain who is Jesus Christ, they explain that when God the Father think of Himself then it was Jesus was brought fort. Jesus Christ is not just a reflection of the Father He is different Person, God the the Father is the Father and Jesus Christ as the God the Son. God bless, |

593 | Jesus God/God God still unclear | Matt 1:23 | jlpangilinan | 73802 | ||
The verses that you quoted clearly stated that whoever sin Jesus is also seen the Father, but it is not stated that Christ said "we are the same person" The scriptures clearly stated that Christ is the image of the invisible God: Col 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: He is the image of the invisible God but this is not mean that they are the same person. Take a look at this verse. Mt 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. In that verse, Christ clearly stated that even Him He dit knoe the our of His second coming, if they are the same person why Christ did not know that but only His Father. Mt 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Christ said "My God hast thou forsaken me" if they are the same person how come that Christ has to said this, other wise it look like this "My self My self hast thou forsaken me" the logic of the Bible is clear, what we should do is to understand it. God bless, |

594 | Jesus God/God God still unclear | Matt 1:23 | jlpangilinan | 74041 | ||
Yes He is talking to Jesus as different Person that is why He said "Let us" if they are the same person God will not say that but maybe instead"I will make" Ge 1:26 ¶ And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. My last post has enough evidence that they are different persons, I dont know what is point here. God bless, |

595 | 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 |

596 | What type of "magic" do magi do? | Matt 2:1 | jlpangilinan | 27679 | ||
They are not magician, They are ("wise men") Magi. Easton Entry: It is not much referred to in the New Testament. The Magi mentioned in Mt 2:1-12 were not magicians in the ordinary sense of the word. They belonged to a religious caste, the followers of Zoroaster, the astrologers of the East. Simon, a magician, was found by Philip at Samaria (Ac 8:9-24); and Paul and Barnabas encountered Elymas, a Jewish sorcerer, at Paphos (Ac 13:6-12). At Ephesus there was a great destruction of magical books (Ac 19:18-19). |

597 | What does the word Rama mean ? | Matt 2:18 | jlpangilinan | 30949 | ||
Easton Bible Dictionary Entry on: Rama (Mt 2:18), the Greek form of Ramah. (1.) A city first mentioned in Jos 18:25, near Gibeah of Benjamin. It was fortified by Baasha, king of Israel (1Ki 15:17-22; 2Ch 16:1-6). Asa, king of Judah, employed Benhadad the Syrian king to drive Baasha from this city (1Ki 15:18,20). Isaiah (Isa 10:29) refers to it, and also Jeremiah, who was once a prisoner there among the other captives of Jerusalem when it was taken by Nebuchadnezzar (Jer 39:8-12; 40:1). Rachel, whose tomb lies close to Bethlehem, is represented as weeping in Ramah (Jer 31:15) for her slaughtered children. This prophecy is illustrated and fulfilled in the re-awakening of Rachel's grief at the slaughter of the infants in Bethlehem (Mt 2:18). It is identified with the modern village of er-Ram, between Gibeon and Beeroth, about 5 miles due north of Jerusalem. (See Samuel.) (2.) A town identified with Rameh, on the border of Asher, about 13 miles south-east of Tyre, "on a solitary hill in the midst of a basin of green fields" (Jos 19:29). (3.) One of the "fenced cities" of Naphtali (Jos 19:36), on a mountain slope, about seven and a half miles west-south-west of Safed, and 15 miles west of the north end of the Sea of Galilee, the present large and well-built village of Rameh. (4.) The same as Ramathaim-zophim (q.v.), a town of Mount Ephraim (1Sa 1:1,19). (5.) The same as Ramoth-gilead (q.v.), 2Ki 8:29; 2Ch 22:6. |

598 | How does BC correspond to Bible times. | Matt 3:3 | jlpangilinan | 125465 | ||
As we all know, B.C. means before Christ, for example the book of ISAIAH it was mentioned there the reign of the King and uzzia's death which is (B.C. 762) meaning uzzia died 762 year before Christ was born it is an opposit how we count years in our time for example we are now in 2004, two thousand and four years after Jesus Christ born. A.D. means anno domini in english Year of Our Lord. I hope it would helps. God bless, Isaiah, The Book of consists of prophecies delivered (ISA 1) in the reign of Uzziah (1-5), (2) of Jotham (6), (3) Ahaz (7-14:28), (4) the first half of Hezekiah's reign (14:28-35), (5) the second half of Hezekiah's reign (36-66). Thus, counting from the fourth year before Uzziah's death (B.C. 762) to the last year of Hezekiah (B.C. 698), Isaiah's ministry extended over a period of sixty-four years. He may, however, have survived Hezekiah, and may have perished in the way indicated above. |

599 | where can one be baptized? | Matt 3:13 | jlpangilinan | 22961 | ||

600 | first recorded baptism | Matt 3:15 | jlpangilinan | 20783 | ||
If I am mistaken it was There are four recorded kind of baptism that I know Baptism of Christ: Christ had to be formally inaugurated into the public discharge of his offices. For this purpose he came to John, who was the representative of the law and the prophets, that by him he might be introduced into his offices, and thus be publicly recognized as the Messiah of whose coming the prophecies and types had for many ages borne witness. John refused at first to confer his baptism on Christ, for he understood not what he had to do with the "baptism of repentance." But Christ said, "'Suffer it to be so now,' NOW as suited to my state of humiliation, my state as a substitute in the room of sinners." His reception of baptism was not necessary on his own account. It was a voluntary act, the same as his act of becoming incarnate. Yet if the work he had engaged to accomplish was to be completed, then it became him to take on him the likeness of a sinner, and to fulfil all righteousness (Mt 3:15). Baptism for the dead only mentioned in 1Co 15:29. This expression as used by the apostle may be equivalent to saying, "He who goes through a baptism of blood in order to join a glorified church which has no existence [i.e., if the dead rise not] is a fool." Some also regard the statement here as an allusion to the strange practice which began, it is said, to prevail at Corinth, in which a person was baptized in the stead of others who had died before being baptized, to whom it was hoped some of the benefits of that rite would be extended. This they think may have been one of the erroneous customs which Paul went to Corinth to "set in order." Baptism, Christian an ordinance immediately instituted by Christ (Mt 28:19-20), and designed to be observed in the church, like that of the Supper, "till he come." The words "baptize" and "baptism" are simply Greek words transferred into English. This was necessarily done by the translators of the Scriptures, for no literal translation could properly express all that is implied in them. Baptism, John's was not Christian baptism, nor was that which was practised by the disciples previous to our Lord's crucifixion. Till then the New Testament economy did not exist. John's baptism bound its subjects to repentance, and not to the faith of Christ. It was not administered in the name of the Trinity, and those whom John baptized were rebaptized by Paul (Ac 18:24; 19:7). |
