761 | Man Seen God the Father? | John 1:18 | jlpangilinan | 58806 | ||
Forum members, I saw some of the broadcast of benny hinn here in the Philippines, its a reply. He had this certain guest I forget the name(Jessie I think). According to this guest he saw God the Father and Jesus Christ in heaven, he even ate with them. What do you think of this claim? Do you think it is different from John statement: 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. Any thoughts God bless, Johnny |

762 | who saw God in the bible? | John 1:18 | jlpangilinan | 78039 | ||
John 1:8 stated that "No man seen God at any time" 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. Ge 32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved. De 34:10 And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face, Although there are some people mention in the old testament that seen God "face to face" but Ac 7:35 This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel which appeared to him in the bush. But paul assess that it was an angel who appeared in them. Word "face to face" could be have other meaning because in said: De 5:4 The LORD talked with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire, It was mention there that "God talk to the Israel "face to face" although it was moses really talked to God "face to face" God bless, |

764 | 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. |

765 | is selling in a church building fine? | John 2:13 | jlpangilinan | 59843 | ||
I strongly disagree that selling is allowed inside the church regarding of motives. You said"The short answer is, yes, it is okay to sell items at a church, as long as the motivation to sell, and the proceeds that come from it are Christ-centered and help to build the church, benefit the public and/or its efforts are ultimately to reach others with the message of salvation." Where did you get this idea? could you please put any passages support that will stated your claim? Did Christ allow that selling is ok if motive is different? Did the apostle do this? can you show the passages. Jesus Christ said: Mt 21:13 And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves. You cannot see that Jesus allow if the motive is different, He said that the temple is the place for prayer and not for selling. You can sell in different place and help if you want why in the Church? I am sorry to say that your claim that selling in the church is ok is your own speculation and not biblical. God bless, Johnny |

766 | is baptism important | John 3:5 | jlpangilinan | 22163 | ||
Yes! it is very important Joh 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. Jesus Christ also do it not just says it. Mr 1:9 ¶ And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan. Mr 1:10 And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him: To show us that it is important Jesus Christ make himself an example when He asked John to baptize Him. There are four kinds of baptism in the bible, I can share it to you if you want. Thanks, Johnny |

768 | is baptism important | John 3:5 | jlpangilinan | 22260 | ||
Yes I know that I mean is baptism mentioned in the bible: 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 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). The official duty of Christ and the sinless person of Christ are to be distinguished. It was in his official capacity that he submitted to baptism. In coming to John our Lord virtually said, "Though sinless, and without any personal taint, yet in my public or official capacity as the Sent of God, I stand in the room of many, and bring with me the sin of the world, for which I am the propitiation." Christ was not made under the law on his own account. It was as surety of his people, a position which he spontaneously assumed. The administration of the rite of baptism was also a symbol of the baptism of suffering before him in this official capacity (Lu 12:50). In thus presenting himself he in effect dedicated or consecrated himself to the work of fulfilling all righteousness. 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 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). To make myself clear Johnny |

770 | babtisim and two places when you die | John 3:5 | jlpangilinan | 23871 | ||
Your Question:"Do you need to be babtized to go to heaven?" Let us use the scriptures to answer your question. Joh 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Joh 3:4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Joh 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. Also Jesus Christ required Himself to be baptize of John: Mt 3:13 ¶ Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. But if you will ask if baptisim alone can save us? No. You can be baptized in the water how many time you want and it cannot save you. You have received Christ in your heart, by His grace you can be saved. You also have to have faith in Him that He is your saviour. And follow His commandments. For your second question: Also, are there two places to go when you die? Heaven and back here on earth: Are you refering to Heaven and Hell? If referring to those two: Here are the scriptures for that: Mt 25:33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Mt 25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. But if your question is are the spirit of Dead people can go back here on earth? No they cannot: Job 7:9 As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more. 9. Torrey Job 7:10 He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more. Ec 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. 5. Torrey Ec 9:6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun. I hope it would helps.

771 | Is baptism required for salvation? | John 3:5 | jlpangilinan | 52123 | ||
Joh 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. If you have the time to obey it please do. Baptism in water cannot save you, it is your faith and grace of Christ. Baptism in the water is a church ceremony but it is important because as Jesus said in John 3:5 If you really to obey Christ obey His command, because I dont believe as a follower of Him you will disobey His command such as John 3:5 Lu 23:41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss. Lu 23:42 And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. Situation of the saving in the cross is different matter, in that situation they have no time for fulfilling baptism, but how many times that will happen in physical? It happen once Jesus Christ crussified just once. In our situation we have a lot of time to fulfill baptism if you can do it why not. God bless, Johnny Lu 23:43 And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise. |

I dont know if you disagree with or what kindly read my post again before commenting to it Joh 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. If you have the time to obey it please do. Baptism in water cannot save you, it is your faith and grace of Christ.

773 | Is baptism required for salvation? | John 3:5 | jlpangilinan | 52261 | ||
I dont said that baptism in the water will save you but you have to obey it because it is part of the commandment of Christ. Kindly take a look again part of my statement: If you have the time to obey it please do. Baptism in water cannot save you, it is your faith and grace of Christ. Baptism in the water is a church ceremony but it is important because as Jesus said in John 3:5 Now if you dont obey it, it is not my problem it yours. Christ is the one responsible of saying this in John 3:5 not me. God bless, Johnny |

774 | Concerning the baptism topic.... | John 3:5 | jlpangilinan | 53276 | ||
I think it is wrong to say that you dont need to be baptize to be save. It depend upon the situation, example the thief in the cross, because there no time to do baptism at that moment. To be save or being save is between you and God no one can say that you are not save or save God can define that. Baptism in the water cannot save you! it is your faith in Him and His grace, even how many times you will baptize in the water but you repentance is not true, it is worthless! But you have to baptize as Jesus said, because as His followers we must obey Him, we must obey what He commanded us to obey. If you are follower of Christ and consider your self as His son are going to disobey His command such as baptism, of course not. In our time I dont believed that those who refuse to be baptize is save, because you disobeying a very simple order of your Lord and God if you consider youself as His son you must obey. But again, water cannot save you! it your faith and His grace. God bless, Johnny |

775 | Where does it say "MUST be baptised" | John 3:5 | jlpangilinan | 111423 | ||
Colin, You are right that baptism is necessary for salvation because I believed that a person that reject the salvation is not saved. If you obey the commandments of baptism it is the proof that you have faith, I dont think that if you are going to reject the baptism you have faith in Christ. Mt 7:21 ¶ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. I am sure baptism is a will of the Father, the fact that Christ commanded it. Obedience is necessary to show faith, the example of noah is very clear, noah had faith in God, but do you think if he did not obey God instructing him to build the ark he will survive the flood? No. God bless, |

777 | What does Scripture mean by no works? | John 3:5 | jlpangilinan | 111589 | ||
Tim, is baptism Will of the Father or not? Do you think it is only an Idea of Christ to be baptize by John as an example how important it is? Mt 7:21 ¶ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Tell me that baptism is not will of the Father and I will say that it is not important. God bless, |
||||||
778 | What does Scripture mean by no works? | John 3:5 | jlpangilinan | 111591 | ||
After reading of your comment to Tim, it seems that you believed that good works is nothing or not a contributor to our salvation. Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. Paul quoting the "works" a works of law and not good works. Please read verse 10 to confirm it Eph 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. We are created unto "good works" and please take a look what Paul says about that faith alone doctrine. 1Co 13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. 1Co 13:13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. Is charity works or not, it will of the Father or Not? Mt 7:21 ¶ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. another thing how could you explain this verse to me. Php 2:12 ¶ Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. It seems that paul taught us to work out our own salvation. |

779 | What happened to Enoch and Elijah ? | John 3:13 | jlpangilinan | 115846 | ||
Joh 3:13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. Enoch died in faith, Apostle paul assess that Heb 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. Heb 11:13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. What happened to elijah is he is not really in the Kingdom of Heaven, which he can see God otherwise it will contradict the assessment of John: 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. The heaven mentioned would one of the three heaven mentioned in the Bible: 1.) Definitions. The phrase "heaven and earth" is used to indicate the whole universe (Ge 1:1; Jer 23:24; Ac 17:24). According to the Jewish notion there were three heavens, (a) The firmament, as "fowls of the heaven" (Ge 2:19; 7:3,23; Ps 8:8, etc.), "the eagles of heaven" (La 4:19), etc. (b) The starry heavens (De 17:3; Jer 8:2; Mt 24:29). (c) "The heaven of heavens," or "the third heaven" (De 10:14; 1Ki 8:27; Ps 115:16; 148:4; 2Co 12:2). God bless, |
