2361 | Is it lawful for women to be preachers? | 1 Cor 14:34 | justme | 163869 | ||
Lwaful is one thing, dealing with the legal system, and in our country it is "lawful" However the better question is " Does God call women to be pastors?" Better yet is the question I can answer with assurance. Does God call women into ministry? Yes! I have serious concerns that Biblical instruction is lacking for women being in the position od Pastor. Women in leadership ministries are effective, and I believe Biblical in every position except as Pastor. God forgive me if I am wrong. Blessings. justme |

2362 | Women being submissive? | 1 Cor 14:34 | justme | 223896 | ||
stephanieleigh426: Welcome to the Study Bible Forum! In the days Paul said this wome had little schooling if anything beyond what they were taught by their mother or father. Women were "things" that belong to the husbands. With little knowledge and with constant questioning this was disruptive of the preaching. Thus Pauls advice. Morant61 has given good advice. But do not be quiet when there is a proper time to do so. Blessings. justme |

2363 | Resurrection or Easter sunday? | 1 Cor 15:32 | justme | 240215 | ||
Why do we say Easter, rather than Resurrection Sunday or someting like this? I am concerned that easter is so connected with candy and colored eggs, and baskets with goodies that the real meaning is all but lost in the world outside the church. I believe in our culture today most people have disconnected themselves from the Holy Day of Jesus Christ being alive as proof of His divinity. Anyone else finding this hard to deal with in the church they serve. I find this can be a real issue to not hand out "easter baskets either durring the service or afterwards. I am not a pastor, but in the church we were going to the pastor made a big issue of handing out baskets durring the serivce. Justme |

Doc: Do you know when or how it started calling Resurrection Sunday easter? Also we are exactally on the same page, it really hurts me, so how much more is the heart of the Holy father who sent His Son to carry my sins to the cross.

2367 | Which environment would be best? | 1 Cor 15:33 | justme | 52741 | ||
Your friend needs a super good lawer. Sad but true many courts do not consider lesbian lifestyle as disqualafing her from her rights as a mother. This varies from state to state, So get the very best lawer he can. This is no tine to think cheap! There is apparently something deeper than what you are aware of because these situations just do not pop uo from no where. Both he and his daughter need counseling. I hope they get it, agape, justme |

jbw: Well pardner, it's time after 121 posts for you to head up yonder and fill out the Update User Info. We know nothing about you, except what you have writen. Take a few moments and share something that you would like to tell about your self. Look at other names and read their profiles to get some ideas. I for one an not a "Left Behind" follower. I take Matthew 24 and follow that. I frankly do not agree that Christians won't suffer tribulation, infact many are suffering as we sit typing our hearts out, while debating if Christians will go through the tribulation. I do respect those who hold that view, but I refuse to support the endless pop endtime studies and fiction of the "Left Behind" endless book series. I am sure these books have made mega millions for the authors and the publishers. Why read this made up fiction and some Bible, when we have the real genuine sayings of Jesus? Any thoughts? justme |

2369 | Saved after the Rapture | 1 Cor 15:52 | justme | 193617 | ||
Brother Parkerson: Welco,e back to the Study Bible Study Forum! The subject of the "Rapture" is one that has several Biblical possibilities. May I suggest a book by Hank Hanergraaff, THE APOCALYPSE CODE. This in my opinion is a book that any serious Biblical reader needs to read and carefully come to understand how some Christian understand the Second coming of Jesus Christ. Blessings justme |

2370 | follow up to 1 corinth 15 question | 1 Cor 15:52 | justme | 216500 | ||
Val: Just as a point on your response. If someone sent me a note with "Greetings man" it might considered to be a put down on me being a man. Val, the point you make about the "day" really is more solidly in favor of meaning a single day. This may be debatable, but the most literal understanding is a one day event. In all honesty as I read your note with "Greetings man" for me and perhaps other men it sure came out like "man bashing" to me. Perhaps that's not what you ment? We all need to be reminded to consider how our words on the screen might be read in a way we did not intend. The world judges us by how we treat each other, and the love and respect we show each other. The dialogue on the day of the Lord is open to different interpretations and dialogue, but not to insist it is only to be viewed as my way only. Blessings. justme |

2373 | Difficulty with a Brother in the Church? | 1 Cor 16:14 | justme | 187860 | ||
Jamey: Your Scriptual answer is found in Matthew 18:15-20. Notice there are specfic steps, and to reconcile is the goal. I would pray before each step you take. Agood starting point is always to ask if you have done something to offend this brother. Perhaps telling the brother some points about him you admire at first might aim the conversation in a better direction. A prayer I read went something like this " Lord, help my words to be soft and tender...as tommrow I may have to eat them." Once you say something you can't ever take it back. I hope this Scripture guides your path. justme |

2374 | What were, are, they filled with? | 2 Corinthians | justme | 83644 | ||
Hi Ray! Justme here. Wow you have put some thought provoking questions up! Here goes, I will give you my best. In Matthew 28:19 we are told to Baptize in the Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. In John 16:7 Jesus is saying that He will send the "Helper" in GK. Paracletos, one called alongside to help; or Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor. John 14:16 agains refers to the "Helper" and in John 14:26 Jesus calls the "Helper" the "Holy Spirit". In Acts 2:33,38 refer to receiving the "gift of the Holy Spirit." and in Romans 15:13 there Paul describes in specfic ways the Holy Spirit in His power, works in the believer. In 1 Corthians 13, Paul tells us the greatest gift is "love". Then in Chapter 14 Paul goes into the "spiritual gifts", which if you notice the "Gift of the Holy Spirit" is given to all believers! The "spiritual gifts" are the results of maturing in our Faith and relationship and Lordship with Jesus Christ, these "spiritual gifts" are given as a gift, to use for the benefit of the Church to use in evangelism, worship, leadership, and reconcilation, of the lost and carnal Christian. We receive the Holy Spirit upon confession of Jesus Christ as Lord and our Savior. I can add that some believe the Holy Spirit enters our life at that point, and others believe the Holy Spirit enters our life only after you have followed the Lord in water Baptism. (I see both sides and I believe if you refuse to be baptized you proberly are not genuinely saved.) The Holy Spirit resides in us and is the Seal of our Salvation from the Father. If I so want the Holy Spirit to "fill" me and direct my way he will. I can also make the choice to ignore His Leading. That is sin. I don't discount that all the gifts are in use today. I do think there is an abundance of pressure, wrongly put, on new believers, to show proof of their salvation by the speaking in tongues. My personal belief is there is more to suggest that the gifts of "helps" is more evidence of the fruits of the Holy Spirit" than tongues or "utterances". I believe the Word says the "gifts" are just that. I doubt we should demand any one gift. I am willing to accept any "spiritual gift" the Lord wants me to use for His use. I sincerely hopes theis helps. I remember you often in my prayers, may God bless you Brother Ray. Justme |

2376 | What is "Hope"? | 2 Corinthians | justme | 85103 | ||
InHisService: Welcome to the Forum! You ask a very fine question. I wonder how many of us "hope" in prayer, missing what we are to hope for. I think hope may have many definations for many people. In 2 Corinthians 12:7-10, I am positive Paul hoped for the thorn in his flesh to be removed. The Lord knew what His will for Paul was. Often we pray for what we hope for rather than for Gods direct will in a situation or something we need or want. I believe in praying for the direct will of God, and in that I am sure to get the correct answer. There is no way to manipulate God. Faith and hope are often the two sides of the same coin. Paul hoped for removal of his thorn in the flesh, but by faith he was able to overcome his weakness by Gods powerful Grace. Paul learned contentment with his weakness so that for Christ's sake he became strong. I believe this is a lesson that takes a lifetime of walking close with the Master, Jesus Christ, to learn and to apply in our daily lives. As for specfics I encourage you to ask in hope of being in line with the Lords will. There are few in the forum that have serious health problems. We Hope for healing, we pray in faith that the Lords will is done in their lives, and it shall be. I have hope all my grown children will live a close walk with the Lord Jesus. I am very specfic with this prayer. In Faith I give their lives over to the Lord. The key is each of my adult children have freedom of choice. They can follow the Lords leading or not. I pray in faith they do. I can say I see God work in ways I never dreame possible. I have prayed about transpertation needs, material wants, and physical comforts. I have many times asked amiss. Many times the answer was far better than I had hoped for. I have faith that the Lord knows His will for me. Psalm 139 goes into very clear detail as to how well the Lord know me, and knows what is the very best for me, and you as well. I hope this is helpful, and blessings to you. Enjoy the Forum! justme |

2378 | Hank is wainting, are you ready? | 2 Cor 1:10 | justme | 215469 | ||
To all brothers and sisters in Christ on this forum: I just read about Hank going home. I know Hank will be waiting for us when we get to go home too. Going home is glory for Hank. For us left here awaiting the Holy Father to bring us home it seems like a sad time, as we will miss Hank. For those of us, like me, Hank was always pressing us to dig deeper, and to put our answer in the correct form of English. Some of you might have picked up by now I have a impairment. Hank was kind and loving to me. Hank and his wisdom and Bible knowledge was something so very special to me. Hank spread Christian love beyond what the average Christian can ever do. I will miss Hank. Justme.....Mike |

st.john: Have you ever thought about why we say "pray harder"? I have used that therm for many years. But one day I heard someone say that and it just did not add up. Is prayer hard? Maybe a better word would be pray more intentionaly? Maybe you can come up with a better term? Blessings. justme |

2380 | Hank is wainting, are you ready? | 2 Cor 1:10 | justme | 215515 | ||
John: I was attempting to say that the word hard has tow different meanings in paryer. I think diligently or fervor is a much better wording to ask people to do. May I say to pray for that man you spoke of is very "hard" in reality. I can't imagine the pain and anger your family has been in. I do not know how a person lived and moves on after such a difficult situation. You are a follower of Jesus that shows for sure. Blessings. justme |
