342 | Isn't adultrey grounds for divorce? | Hosea | kalos | 180950 | ||
So Jesus was wrong when he permitted divorce because of adultery? And Paul was wrong when, writing under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, he said that desertion is grounds for divorce? Your attempt to explain away what the Bible plainly says has failed. We know what the Bible MEANS by what it SAYS. "The whole point" is something you have completely missed. |

344 | Isn't adultrey grounds for divorce? | Hosea | kalos | 180853 | ||
1. The definition of adultery is unchanged since the time of Moses. 2. Hosea had no authority to change the Torah (the Law). 3. The New Testament gives two grounds for divorce -- not one or none -- but two. Divorce is permissible on the grounds of adultery or desertion. 'God's utter hatred of divorce is very clear in Scripture. 'Nonetheless, there are two extraordinary cases in which Scripture teaches that God does permit divorced people to remarry. 'First, note that Jesus Himself included this exception clause: "Whosoever shall put away his wife, *except it be for fornication*, and shall marry another, committeth adultery" (Matt. 19:9, King James Version, emphasis added). He allows an exception in this one case, only "because of the hardness of your hearts" (Matt. 19:8). Clearly, Jesus is treating divorce as a last resort, only to be sought in the case of hard-hearted adultery. 'The apostle Paul allows one more reason for divorce: if an unbelieving spouse abandons a believer, the believer is under no obligation in such a case (1 Cor. 7:14). This would free the abandoned spouse to remarry. 'But we must emphasize that apart from those two specific, exceptional cases, divorce is not sanctioned in Scripture.'

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 1 Cor. 13:11 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men. 1Cor. 14:20 and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat. For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. Hebrews 5:12b-14 |

346 | Die without the revelation of the Gospel | Acts 17:30 | kalos | 180821 | ||
Those who have never heard about Jesus ____________________ NASB Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse. ____________________ 'Question: "What happens to people who never have a chance to hear about Jesus? Will God condemn a person who has never heard about Him?" 'Answer: All people are accountable to God whether they have “heard about Him” or not. The Bible tells us that God has clearly revealed Himself in nature (Romans 1:20) and in the hearts of people (Ecclesiastes 3:11). The problem is that the human race is sinful; we all reject this knowledge of God and rebel against Him (Romans 1:21-23). Apart from God's grace, God would give us over to the sinful desires of our hearts, allowing us to discover how useless and miserable life is apart from Him. This He does for those who reject Him (Romans 1:24-32). 'In reality, it is not that some people have not heard about God. Rather, the problem is that they have rejected what they have heard and what is readily seen in nature. Deuteronomy 4:29 proclaims, “But if from there you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with all your soul.” This verse teaches an important principle: everyone who truly seeks after God will find Him. If a person truly desires to know God, God will make Himself known. 'The problem is, “there is no one who understands, no one who seeks God” (Romans 3:11). People reject the knowledge of God that is present in nature and in their own heart, and instead decide to worship a “god” of their own creation. It is foolish to debate the fairness of God sending someone to hell who never had the opportunity to hear the Gospel of Christ. People are responsible to God for what God has already revealed to them. The Bible says that people reject this knowledge, and therefore God is just in condemning them to hell. 'Instead of debating the fate of those who have never heard, we, as Christians, should be doing our best to make sure that they hear. We are called to spread the Gospel throughout the nations (Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8). The fact that we know people reject the knowledge of God revealed in nature must motivate us to proclaim the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ. Only through accepting the Gospel of God’s grace through the Lord Jesus Christ can people be saved from their sins and rescued from an eternity apart from God in hell.'

347 | PREACH THE GOSPEL | Mark 16:15 | kalos | 180790 | ||
PREACH THE GOSPEL NASB Mark 16:15 And He said to them, "Go into all the world and PREACH THE GOSPEL to all creation." NASB Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of THE GOSPEL, for IT IS THE POWER OF GOD for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. NASB 1 Cor. 2:1 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not come to know God, God was well-pleased through the foolishness of THE MESSAGE PREACHED to save those who believe.

Why do truth and love have to be mutually exclusive? Why do people think the choices are either truth (Bible teaching) or love? I thought the two went together. God says: Instead, speaking the TRUTH in LOVE, we will in all things GROW UP into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. Eph. 4:15 (Emphasis added.) |

Cuddle, If we didn't have accurate preaching and teaching of the Word of God, then we wouldn't know what to praise God for. I assure you the first Christian church did not lack the teaching of the Word. Of course, they didn't get it all at once, but they did get it. Yet I agree with the rest and appreciate you. Grace to you, John |

357 | Deliberately, knowingly, and habitually | 1 John 3:9 | kalos | 180580 | ||
No one born of God makes a PRACTICE of sinning, for God's seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning because he has been born of God. [10] By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not PRACTICE righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother. 1 John 3:9-10 (ESV) (Emphasis added.) ____________________ 1 John 3:6-10 (Amplified) 6 No one who abides in Him [who lives and remains in communion with and in obedience to Him—deliberately, knowingly, and HABITUALLY] commits (practices) sin. No one who [HABITUALLY] sins has either seen or known Him [recognized, perceived, or understood Him, or has had an experiential acquaintance with Him]. 7 Boys (lads), let no one deceive and lead you astray. He who practices righteousness [who is upright, conforming to the divine will in purpose, thought, and action, living a consistently conscientious life] is righteous, even as He is righteous. 8 [But] he who commits sin [who practices evildoing] is of the devil [takes his character from the evil one], for the devil has sinned (violated the divine law) from the beginning. The reason the Son of God was made manifest (visible) was to undo (destroy, loosen, and dissolve) the works the devil [has done]. 9 No one born (begotten) of God [deliberately, knowingly, and HABITUALLY] practices sin, for God’s nature abides in him [His principle of life...remains permanently within him]; and he cannot practice sinning because he is born (begotten) of God. 10 By this it is made clear who take their nature from God and are His children and who take their nature from the devil and are his children: no one who does not practice righteousness [who does not conform to God’s will in purpose, thought, and action] is of God; neither is anyone who does not love his brother (his fellow believer in Christ). (Emphasis added.) "deliberately, knowingly, and habitually" In 1 John 3, the key words are: "[deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] practices sin" and "he cannot practice sinning." This phrase conveys the idea of habitual sinning (see 1 John 3:4,6). The emphasis here is on the first part of v. 9: "No one born (begotten) of God [deliberately, knowingly, and habitually] practices sin". |

360 | Do certain holidays have a pagan origin | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 180247 | ||
'Do certain holidays have a pagan origin, like Christmas or Easter? Perhaps so, and we certainly need to avoid any pagan elements in these holidays (Halloween is perhaps the one that is still most obviously pagan). But we should also take into account that Christian rituals like circumcision and baptism may have pre-existed the Christian practice and symbolism. Since these rituals have been redefined by Scripture we have no qualms observing them. 'Whether or not one chooses to observe Christmas or Easter is a matter of personal liberty. But these liberties must not be argued about or imposed on others (Romans 14:1, 4, 22)...' ____________________ To read more go to: www.bible.org |
