361 | who saved 3000 on pentecost? | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 230041 | ||
Hi jsolomon, welcome to the forum! The only one who ever saved anyone is Jesus Christ. Of all the untold millennia that have been saved, throughout the history of man, all have been saved by the sacrifice of one person who is God our saviour, Jesus Christ.-John |

362 | Is it wrong to call one on earth Father? | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 230043 | ||
Hello janierudack2, welcome to the forum. I am unawares of any scripture that says not to call our earthly fathers by the title of father. In fact there are many places in scripture that say otherwise. Genesis 12:1, Genesis 2:24, Matthew 10:37, Matthew 15:4, Deuteronomy 27:16, Proverbs 3:12, I would guess that whoever told you that could use a Bible lesson. -John |

Hi janierudack, there is a correction for my previous post. You can find what you are looking for in Matthew 23:9. I believe John Gill gives a good explanation for this.-John "Ver. 9. And call no man your father upon the earth,.... Not but that children may, and should call their natural parents, fathers; and such who have been instrumental in the conversion of souls, may be rightly called by them their spiritual fathers; as servants and scholars also, may call those that are over them, and instruct them, their masters: our Lord does not mean, by any of these expressions, to set aside all names and titles, of natural and civil distinction among men, but only to reject all such names and titles, as are used to signify an authoritative power over men's consciences, in matters of faith and obedience; in which, God and Christ are only to be attended to." |

365 | do our pets go to heaven | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 230310 | ||
Hi, tulip, and welcome. The Bible doesn't really say, tulip, but I for one do not believe our loving and gracious Father, our "Daddy in Heaven", would not give His children, -the very ones that He died for- something that would be so easy for Him to do, do you?-John | ||||||
366 | Is it divisive to ask a question ? | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 230328 | ||
ljwsheltonconpi, I'm sorry but this is a Bible study forum, not an advice forum. We are not dispassionate of your problem but ill prepared to deal with it and the (Terms Of Use) make very clear what our gracious sponsors (The Lockman Foundation) intention is, and that is, Bible study. -John | ||||||
367 | Heaven what it will be like! | Bible general Archive 3 | stjohn | 183823 | ||
HI mae68; The bible doesn't tell us exactly what heaven will look like but I hope this helps. In heaven the blessedness of the righteous consists in the possession of "life everlasting," "an eternal weight of glory" (2 Cor. 4:17), an exemption from all sufferings for ever, a deliverance from all evils (2 Cor. 5:1, 2) and from the society of the wicked (2 Tim. 4:18), bliss without termination, the "fulness of joy" for ever (Luke 20:36; 2 Cor. 4:16, 18; 1 Pet. 1:4; 5:10; 1 John 3:2). The believer's heaven is not only a state of everlasting blessedness, but also a "place", a place "prepared" for them (John 14:2). Also look in revelation 4:2-6 keep looking up and God bless stj |

369 | Age of those entering Promise Land | Bible general Archive 3 | stjohn | 184055 | ||
Hi jaykay; There is some debate as to what is the age of accountability, some say as young as 10, some say 20, I think it varies from person to person, so after the 40 years in the wilderness and I think that 20 being the youngest that one would be called to battle, perhaps the oldest would be about 60 and the youngest 20. can someone add to this? I'd like to know too. stj |

370 | are fish sinless | Bible general Archive 3 | stjohn | 184062 | ||
Hi gizbeth; Adam and Eve where the first Humans to sin when they disobeyed God. God commanded them not to eat of the three of the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil. God never commanded fish or birds or beasts of any kind whatsoever that crawl or fly or swim. what they do they do by instinct. sort of like they are preprogramed or something like that. We all, being of the seed of Adam and Eve, we have a sin nature, so it is natural for us to sin. We are sinners. So, Romans 3:23 obviously is not addressed to fish it is addressed to men God in His word which is the Bible is talking to us sinners. therefor fish are not sinners they are (sinless) I hope that helps God's peace stj |

373 | should we profile? is this fair? | Bible general Archive 3 | stjohn | 184882 | ||
Please, please, “donot answer this post” and as a result remove it from the home page! Question: Question (full): 2 Cor. 4:2 But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. It sure would be “nice plus helpful” if everyone posting to the forum would take a minute and fill out the section provided for them using the Update User Info. It’s found under Resources section on the lower left side of the home page. It’s always easer to communicate with a person when one knows something about the one they are posting with; knowing that they aren’t trying to hide behind some sort of a deep dark cloak or some strange agenda. Luke 11:33 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light. Matthew 5:14 You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Clicking on the Author of any posting should reveal a little something about author. Thanks for being open and forthright, CDBJ and stj |

376 | What does it say about Chrisitan Adultre | Bible general Archive 3 | stjohn | 184979 | ||
Hello Mrs. Q The Bible most defiantly speaks of the sanctity of marriage. And if she is a Christian she certainly should know this. However; not that we are insensitive to your problem. But this is a Bible study forum, and I am sorry but I think it would be unfair to toughs using this site for Bible study to engage in marriage counseling. I am sorry. May I suggest that you have a real heart to heart with your husband, and tell "him", how important this to you. Does "He" know that your marriage is in jeopardy? God bless stj |

377 | difference in Conviction and Confession | Bible general Archive 3 | stjohn | 184988 | ||
Hi Wadene; Conviction; is a condition of conscience, by the working of the Holly Spirt, which brings awareness of condemnation. The purpose of this, is to lead us to salvation. Confession; is an "admission" of an offense, primarily sin. And a "proclamation" of a belief in something, or a "statement" of faith. God bless stj |

Hello again wisdom! And thanks be to you! I greatly appreciate when someone responds with a thanks! Although its not necessary, I think we all like to hear back that we may have helped. And may I say I have found, that most of the time, the simplest answers are the right answers. As a dear old preacher used to say. Father doesn't put the goodies on the top shelf where His kids cant reach them! Love in Christ and blessings! stj |
