321 | How did sin originate | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 45229 | ||
Greetings, I guess that I will just have to prod along until the Lord convinces this bone head of mine what all the real facts are, providing I last long enough; and if I don't last he can change my thinking in a real hurry when I take that last breath of earth smog. 2 Cor. 5:8 (NIV) We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

322 | The Cross,Jesus and Mary are they Idols? | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 45319 | ||
Hi Creed, I am sorry that I misunderstood you on your thread, but now that you have made it clear to me lit me ask you a question. What difference does it make if these people change or not? If the whole world were to become westernized it wouldn't mean a thing as for as God is concerned, they would still be lost and on the way to hell. Luke 9:25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away? In my estimation what people need in this world is a living personal relationship with God through the person of his Son Jesus Christ. I say let God change their habits and their way of living to suit him. What do you think, CDBJ |

323 | you said I can remarry... | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 45487 | ||
Hello Raven, you stated, (Marriage Is Sacred and Binding,) What if both are unbelievers, is it still sacred? |
||||||
324 | you said I can remarry... | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 45540 | ||
Well then lets say that you are right and all marriage is sacred. My next question is, just exactly what good does that do for the unbeliever? | ||||||
325 | The Cross,Jesus and Mary are they Idols? | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 45563 | ||
Yes and appart from all this if they don't trust in the finished work of Jesus Christ and believe in him they are still going to hell and this isn't my idea it's what the Bible teaches. Do you disagree with this, that all I am saying. CDBJ | ||||||
326 | you said I can remarry... | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 45664 | ||
You won't get any argument from me on this point. Apart from Jesus Christ we have nothing and therein lies all my hope. People can talk about God till they are blue in the face but until they come to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as the Son of God they are out in leftfield; and you can go to the bank with that!

327 | Where does Jesus say He is God? | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 45936 | ||
Well, I tried to find ineffable and I couldn't find it in the translations that I use, but then again there are many translations of the Bible, and I don't have access to all of them. You said in your answer, , Please look up the word "ineffable" unless you already know what it means. THAT is what I believe. I am not trying to stir up trouble, just find the verse that people are referring to when they say, "Jesus said He was God in the Bible." You say that you believe in ineffable, that' nice? Now unless your conscience is bothering you, I don't know that anyone has accused you of stirring up any trouble, lest wise nothing that I have read. What seems to be the problem, did I say something that offended you, if I did I am very sorry. All I ask in my post was for your opinion, and your answer, as I see it, is that you believe in ineffable. Thank you very much, CDBJ |

Thanks for your response, I have found that about the only time that one might be picked on in this forum is when they come up with some off the wall doctrine. You are right as far as I can see it that we will never know all there is to know about God as long as we are in this body, but we are commanded to keep growing in the knowledge of him. 2 Peter 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen. It helps all those in the forum when new people fill out their personal profile. It shows to all just where you stand along with a little background. We often think that when someone doesn't fill out a personal profile that they are trying to hide something or that they have something up their sleeve. You can see any ones profile by clicking on the author. Thanks again, CDBJ |

Hi Nancy, it's me again, CDBJ I was the first one to answer your post, it looks like you are raising some of the constituent's dander? Just remember it is a Bible forum and not a theological forum. Let me ask you a question just out of curiosity, and please don't get mad at me again. I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings, that's not my object, and nobody really has to answer to what I think any way, I am a nothing, so don't assume that I am some lawyer trying to trap you with words. Now I will tell you that I haven't read all the threads from the time you started this post, so if you don't like where I am going just brush me off and I will understand. Just remember these are not my ideas but what God has spoken to mankind through his Word the Bible. The Bible says this, Hebrews 9:27 (KJV) And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment. Now since God tells us this is going to happen, and we can assume that he isn't pulling our leg, it would behoove us to start thinking about what we are going to say on our behalf. Lets suppose that you just took your last breath, and then all of the sudden there is this tremendous bright light in front of you and you find yourself on your knees before a manly figure sitting on a throng. You are scared to death, pardon the pun, because you know that it is God himself because of the question he ask you. He ask you, Nancy why should I let you come into my kingdom; nothing more and nothing less? What would you tell him, how would you be prepared to answer? Now be honest as best you can and remember you can't put one over on this judge, like some may foul mother nature; he wants the truth and the next few million years depends on your answer. I am looking forward to your answer, CDBJ |

Hi Nancy, I must admit you are a very truthful person and I appreciate what you said, there aren't too many that would get on a Bible forum and speak as openly and truthfully as you have, you have more guts then I have. This force or loving power that you speak of that is supposed to be in all of us, If this force is so loving and caring doesn't it seem logical that he she or it would give us some kind of a format to go by instead of leaving everything all to chance? I think you know where I am going with this. There are some who would say that, the Bible was written by men, well who do they expect to write it, a duck or a fish. I use to think the same way that you do until I checked out the facts about the Bible. It isn't one book but actually 66 books that were written over a period of 1500 years by many different authors. I don't know if you are much into gambling, but I am sure you know what odds are. Well I love to play the stock market and I have found out that in order to be successful in the market one must put as many odds as possible in their favor, the long shots just don't pay off; the Bible is much the same when it comes to probability. Instead of checking a stock performance sheet, which is what one must do to check for probability of future performance, in the Bible one must check on the accuracy of predictions that are made and if they came to pass as predicted; this is called the answer to prophesy. The Bible contains 1,817 individual predictions concerning 737 separate subjects found 8352 verses. These predictions are by many different authors. That in it's self is amazing that they could all be in agreement; the reason being is because God inspired each one of them to write down his thoughts for mans benefit. Let me site you an example, over two thousand years before and up to four hundred year before the person of Jesus was born, there were hundreds of prediction made by different people in the Bible as to the berth of this man called Jesus: such thing as where, when, how why and so forth. The probability of all these predictions coming true in one person, as the actually did, was figured out by someone who likes figures and the odds were over 33 trillion to one. Now those aren't very good odds but that is just one example of the accuracy of the Bible. The Bible talks about the resurrection of the person of Jesus i.e. he came back from the dead, and this one fellow who didn't believe a word of it set out to prove it a myth and decided to write a book on his findings. After examining all the information that has been recorded both in the Bible and historical records that actually exist, he changed his mind half way through his book and became a staunch believer in the claims that the Bible makes about the person of Christ. So Nancy if these claims are true, why don't you give God a chance to prove it to you by reading the New Testament and ask God if this Jesus is alive, as the Bible claims, to reveal himself to you. If you are sincere and really want to know the truth, this one called Jesus who died and came back to life will communicate with you from the Bible. I found this out for myself and I ask you to take the challenge. God does love you and he wants to reveal himself to you but he say that he can only do it as you read his Word. Don't try to start in Genesis, start with the New Testament, CDBJ |

Hi Nancy, it is a translation from the Koine Greek and Hebrew, and the people that sponsor the forum sell them, I use one and they are great for a better understanding of the original language. CDBJ |

333 | Where does Jesus say He is God? | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 46138 | ||
I wish you the best Nancy and I hope that you find your answers. It is just like I told you though you are asking the wrong persons. Jesus Christ is alive and is able to reveal himself to you if you really want to know what the truth is read the book of John in the New Testament. You sound like a very nice caring person but you need to see the reality of what God has done for you in the person of his Son. The fact is that Christ came into this world to pay a debt he didn't owe because we owed a debt we couldn't pay. 1 John 5:10-13 Anyone who believes in the Son of God has this testimony in his heart. Anyone who does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because he has not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. 11And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. Acts 20:28 Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood. The best to you, CDBJ |

334 | WHAT IS THAT LIGHT IN GENESIS 1:3? | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 46925 | ||
Amen to that! John 1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. Hank have you ever wondered if anyone has come to the saving knowledge of Christ as a result of the comments on the forum? Sometimes it seems like we are beating our heads aginst a brick wall! I know saints are being feed, because I have learned things myself, but I often wonder about those that haven't trusted in Jesus Christ for eternal life yet, if any have come to Christ on the forum as a result of what has been taught?

335 | Mark 16:16 what does it say? | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 50882 | ||
There are many such churches in West Virginia that still handle snakes. Every so often someone gets bit with disastrous results. Even with all this you never hear of anyone drinking a nice ice-cold tall glass of strychnine or a big frosted mug of cyanide. Now if those that think Mark 16:18 is for us today you would think that they would be imbibing in the fine acts of proper libation by downing a few of these faith testers! Test results. 2 Cor. 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. |

Baptism it seems has surely created some barriers even though Eph. 4:5 claims that it is a unifier by the use of the word one, which is the Greek word (HICE). Ephes. 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, The reason it can say this is that it follows the order of, first Lord then faith in Him, Jesus, and the baptism that unifies follows, which is automatic. It is done for us and has nothing to do with water. It is a dry baptism as it were. All of the wet baptisms mentioned in the Bible are nothing more then a ritual. The dry baptisms on the other hand are real and we receive them with out any works on our part; they come about as a result of one's state of mind, that is to say the way you think or one's mind set with regards to Jesus the Christ. There are two dry baptisms, there is one for believers and there is one for unbelievers. The one unifying baptism for believers, mentioned in Eph. 4:5, is the Holy Ghost. The baptism that will unify unbelievers is that of fire; the administrator of both baptisms is the Lord Jesus Christ: John the Baptist knew this truth as he testified to it in Matthew's Gospel as he was speaking to some who would believe and others who would not. Matthew 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Every one will receive one baptism or the other and it all depends on what people think of the person of Jesus, the Christ of God, and that will sets the stage for the baptism they will receive. |

337 | Thankful To Be Alive! | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 57336 | ||
HI Hank, sorry to hear about your problem and I will pray for you for sure. There aren’t many like you on the forum that have a good sense of humor. So many believers feel that they should be somber and always have the hangdog expression, and that it is wrong to have fun and laugh a little. Here is a little poem that I put together for a fellow in my church that was going through some rough health problems the same as yours. CDBJ HELP IS NEAR Fret not thyself oh child of God, when problems they arise. The Lord’s directing in your life, to Him there’s no surprise. “Fear thou not,” the Lord commands, I’ll help you all the way. I’ll strengthen in your time of need, if you’ll but stop and pray. Trust in the Lord, He’s there for you, to lead you through this trial. He’ll guide your footsteps on life’s road, and go that extra mile. You are the chosen of the Lord and will not be betrayed. Your hope is anchored to the rock; so do not be dismayed. We walk by faith and not by sight, in the body we reside. The Lord will call us home some day, and in this we confide. |

338 | HI EdB | Bible general Archive 1 | CDBJ | 57338 | ||
Well put, it blows my mind how some people think that the can bribe the God of the entire universe by giving a measly portion of their puny income. Then there are some of the great TV preachers that tell people that they can’t out give God; what ever happen to grace? | ||||||

Hi Kalos, I know that you didn’t mean anything by what you said and the only reason that I answered their question was because it was their first question on the forum and they were probably testing the waters. I think that they must have gotten scared off because they didn’t reply to my thread, I hope that isn’t the case though. Even as nasty as I am I like to cut new comers some slack now and then, hang in there partner. CDBJ |

That is interesting but I assume that the St before Michael, in your post, stands for saint. How can an archangel being that as he is an angel also be a saint at the same time since that position is for human believers in Christ that have called on the name of the Lord for salvation? 1 Cor. 1:2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours: CDBJ |
