1002 | Can I trust this Pastor? | Hebrews | prayon | 16848 | ||
Greetings Jensen! Do not use the fact that the pastor insists that Paul is the author dictate whether that is the church for you. He may be right - he may be wrong, no one knows. In looking for a church, especially being a new Christian, try a variety of churches that profess to be a bible believing, Word teaching church. When you get to a church that you feel comfortable in (or have a inner peace about) then that is where you belong. Just pray and ask God for His direction. Your spirit man (or the Holy Spirit that now lives in you) will direct you if you let him. If you feel uncomfortable then that is not where you should be - keep searching. You should definitly get involved in a good bible study also. No matter where you end up, in any church, always see if what the pastor teaches lines up with the word of God. prayon | ||||||
1003 | Are we really "1 nation under God? | Bible general Archive 1 | prayon | 16766 | ||
Might I add: Thomas Jefferson called the bible the cornerstone of American liberty. Patrick Henry said that our country is founded on the gospel of Jesus Christ. Of the 55 former fathers of this nation who wrote the Constitution 52 were active in thir church. Noah Webster could quote the bible chapter and verse. James Madison said "we stake our future on the ability to follow the ten commandments with all our heart. prayon |

1004 | Where was God? | Bible general Archive 1 | prayon | 16764 | ||
Where I am headed is where man was before this happened? God was there at the World Trade Center. He was at the Pentagon. He was with them at the plane crash in Pennsylvania. He was with those who got detained and didn't make it to work. He was there with those who didn't make it out who needed comfort. Man, however, was not concerned with what he needed to be concerned with - living Godly and praying for our land. Man was concerned with self. If America would of been on her knees praying for our country I doubt that the events on Sept. 11 would of happened. We can not expect God to be there if He is not asked. He is a loving and compassionate God but He is not a pushy God. | ||||||
1005 | what are the events of the end times???? | Revelation | prayon | 16726 | ||
The bible has much to say on the events of the end times. Matt 24:6 tells us that we will hear of wars and rumors of wars; and that nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, (many believe this was fulfilled in WWI) and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 2Tim 3:1 tells us that distressing times will come and gives us a profile of what people will be like. Matt 24:45 tells us that many will come in Jesus name saying that they are the Christ and will deceive many. Luke 21: 25-26 tells us that there will be signs in the sun and moon and starts and the world will be perplexed by roaring seas and strange tides. In chapter 12 in the book of Daniel, Daniel prophecies about the last days. 1Tim 4:1-2 tells us that in the last days some will renounce the faith by paying attention to deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons. Some of the other events that are prophesied to occur in the end times are: The return of the Jews to their homeland. (Isreal became a nation again in 1948). The rise of a great military power in the Orient that can field an army of 22 million - Red China alone is said to have this many. Revival of the dark occult practices of ancient Babylon. Hope this helps. prayon |

1006 | Where was God? | Bible general Archive 1 | prayon | 16723 | ||
Where was God? I submit this for your consideration. Our concept of God is that God gave us the ability to do good and evil. when we choose to do good, God celebrates with us. When we choose to do evil, God cries with us. God gives us choices and gives us the ability to make those choices. But the choice is ours. When we look for blame, the blame is with us, not God. From the Jewish perspective, the question is always asked, "Where was God at Auschwitz?" The Jewish answer is "God was there. The real question is where was Man at Auschwitz?" | ||||||
1007 | Where was God? | Bible general Archive 1 | prayon | 16566 | ||

1011 | i do not understand deuteronomy | Deuteronomy | prayon | 16106 | ||
Welcome shepherd! Deuteronomy is Moses last message to Isreal. It's purpose is to remind the people what God has done and encourage them to rededicate their lives to Him. Moses first address in 1:1-4:43 is about what God has done for us. His second address 4:44-29:1 gives us the principles for Godly living. Moses third address, 29:2-30:20, is a call for commitment to God. Verses 31:1-34:12 talks about the change in leadership in Moses last days. The book of Deuteronomy is also called the book of love and is called the crown jewel of the Pentateuch. It is referred to about 200 times in the New Testament. It lays before us clearly what God expects from those who He redeems; a life of uncompromising obedience. prayon | ||||||
1012 | What does revelation say about towers | Revelation | prayon | 16102 | ||
Nolesurfer9, I agree with EdB that nowhere in Revelations does it speak of towers and a metal bird but Isa 30:25 is noteworthy. Chapter 30 is about the prophecy against rebels referring to the Egyptian alliance: "On every lofty mountain and every high hill there will be brooks running with water - on a day of slaughter, when the towers fall." prayon | ||||||

1018 | Where does one start who has never reall | Bible general Archive 1 | prayon | 15575 | ||
Welcome to the forum Mark. I agree that the gospels are an excellent place to start. Some information for your reference; Matthew is known as the teaching gospel. He presents Jesus as the Mighty King and empasizes the power of Christ. Mark is known as the narrative gospel and is full of action. he presents Jesus as the obedient servant and emphasizes the service of Christ. Luke is a carefully documented gospel that portrays Jesus as the ideal Son of Man and emphasizes the sympathy of Christ. John is the spiritual gospel. He portrays Jesus as the Divine Son of God and emphasizes the Wisdom of Christ. I also want to invite you to ask any questions you have on the forum. No question is a dumb question. I can also give you another suggestion that has not been given if you would like to e me. You can find my email address by double clicking on my name in the author list. May God bless you richly on your search for truth in His Word. prayon |

1019 | the goat a sign for satan? | OT general | prayon | 15574 | ||
Goats were of great importance in ancient life. In ancient economy goats were very useful and thus were a measure of wealth (1Sam 25:2; 2 Chron 17;11). Since the goat was so important it became the sacrificial animal. It is not that they are a symbol of satan, - but just that our sins were transfered from us onto the goat because God required a blood sacrifice for our sins. prayon | ||||||
1020 | Is eternal life possible right now? | Heb 1:1 | prayon | 15571 | ||
First of all I think that you need realize that the bible says that we need to be in a church. It is impossible to serve the body (be a servant) if you are not in a body. It also sounds to me like you are judgeing pastors, churches, kalos, and those who speak in tongues. Who are you to judge? You can not say that those who "repeatedly babble" the same words are not truly speaking in tongues. I am sure that you do not know all the languges every used. You say repetitive - Is it not possible that they are repeating the same word over and over again as many do when they call out for Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. We are told in Matthew not to judge - We are also told to be humble. Forgive me but you sound awfully jugemental and vain in your post. |
