Yes, July, Nolan, But this is not a chat room. That means one can review past posts and respond and/or post new questions. Peace, Brother Nolan Lionstrong, a.k.a. LooseCannon |

223 | When did God create angels? | Gen 1:1 | Lionstrong | 37684 | ||
Now that's an interesting thought, Jensen, angels not a part of this creation. Of course there's absolutely no support for it in Scripture. But it might do for a "thought experiment," as one Christian philosopher used to put it. Peace, Lionstrong |

Convoluted!!? Don't you like me, Nolan? Peace, Lionstrong But I admit, the thoughts are rather tightly packed. You've got to read them sloooowly :) |

225 | Light and Good Works | Matt 5:16 | Lionstrong | 37676 | ||
Hi Radioman, So, are you saying that you think "light" in the context of Mat 5:16 means good works? Peace, Lionstrong |

Hi Searcher, Thanks for the response. If Christ spoke to the Father committing his spirit to him, what else would talking to God be but prayer? Eulogo: According to our on-line lexicon it means to speak well of, praise, and is translated in the NASB 38 times with some form of the Enlish word bless, two times with some form of the word praise, and one time as surely (? go figure!). Now, I'm not a student of the Greek, (modern or ancient!); I'm just going by what I read here. And here the meanings given to the Greek word can be translated as Christ himself blessing the meal rather than Christ invoking the Father to bless it. Now all this is a very very small point, but I enjoy the exchange. Here's a paste from Lockman's lexicon: eulogeô; from 2095 and 3056; to speak well of, praise:--bless(9), blessed(25), blessing(3), giving a blessing(1), praise(1), praising(1), surely*(1). Peace, Lionstrong |

227 | Who else besides Cain, Adam, and Eve? | Genesis | Lionstrong | 37637 | ||
Hi Pop! This is the account of the 6th day. Gen 1:24 Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth after their kind"; and it was so. Gen 1:25 God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good. Gen 1:26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." Gen 1:27 God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Gen 1:28 God blessed them; and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth." Gen 1:29 Then God said, "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you; Gen 1:30 and to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the sky and to every thing that moves on the earth which has life, I have given every green plant for food"; and it was so. Gen 1:31 God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day. Man was created on the 6th day. This is the account of the 3rd day. Gen 1:9 Then God said, "Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear"; and it was so. Gen 1:10 God called the dry land earth, and the gathering of the waters He called seas; and God saw that it was good. Gen 1:11 Then God said, "Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees on the earth bearing fruit after their kind with seed in them"; and it was so. Gen 1:12 The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit with seed in them, after their kind; and God saw that it was good. Gen 1:13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day. No man was created on the 3rd day. Peace, Lionstrong |

228 | response to: There is no such scripture | Rom 10:9 | Lionstrong | 37635 | ||
Hi jeffy, Welcome to the Forum! You write, "Actually one can live however one wants after comming to Christ for salvation." How does this notion square with what Paul teaches? Rom 6:15 What then? Shall we sin [tranlate: shall we live any way we want] because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be! Rom 6:16 Do you not know that when you present yourselves to someone as slaves for obedience, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin resulting in death, or of obedience resulting in righteousness? Rom 6:17 But thanks be to God that though you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were committed, Rom 6:18 and having been freed from sin, you became slaves of righteousness. Rom 6:19 I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness, resulting in further lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness, resulting in sanctification. Rom 6:20 For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. Rom 6:21 Therefore what benefit were you then deriving from the things of which you are now ashamed? For the outcome of those things is death. Rom 6:22 But now having been freed from sin and enslaved to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the outcome, eternal life. Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Peace, Lionstrong |

Hi Searcher! Comment on Lk 24:30: At meals we pray, give thanks and ask GOD to bless our food. In this passage it does not appear to be a prayer to the Father for blessing, but rather that the resurrected Lord himself BLESSED the meal. Luke 24:30 When He had reclined at the table with them, He took the bread and blessed it, and breaking it, He began giving it to them. Imagin the Lord at your own table blessing your meal! Wow! Peace, Lionstrong |

231 | Is God ONE or is God THREE? | James 2:19 | Lionstrong | 37588 | ||
Hi Tim, CLARIFICATION: OK, I think I understand your use of “spirit.” Let me ask you to clarify this next term, Son. You write, “The Son is the body of God--the expression of the nature of God in human terms for the purpose of redemption and reconciliation. “ OK, first you say the son is the body. Then you seem to define the body as the expression of the nature of God. Do I have that right? If I’ve got it right, then I’m puzzled. You see, my understanding of a body is something with eyes, ears, nose; fingers and toes, that is, something physical. But you seem to be saying, no, that the body is the nature of God, that is, spiritual. So, is the Son the body God used, or is the son God’s nature (love, holiness, justice, etc.) or what? Some say Jesus was God in a body. Is this what you mean, God’s nature or spirit in a human body? I think it is, because later on you use the phrase “fleshly embodiment of the Father. I have other questions, but let’s keep it simple and tackle one question at a time. Peace, Lionstrong |

232 | who did cain marry? | Gen 1:1 | Lionstrong | 37482 | ||
Hello Brother Orintex, Two questions came to mind as I read your comments: 1. What is the logical argument that that Cain and his siblings were physically perfect, and that that physical perfection was the basis for the practice of incest? 2. What are the other sources of infallible, immutable and inerrant information besides God's inspired and holy Word? Peace, Lionstrong |

233 | who did cain marry? | Gen 1:1 | Lionstrong | 37480 | ||
Welcome to the Forum, DWF! Here's an answer I gave to the issue of Cain's wife. Please take time to read the other posts under this thread. Please feel free to post any question or comment on any post you find in your search. Again, welcome to the Study Bible Forum! Peace, Lionstrong Why did God not create more one couple ? Answer Lev 18:6 Lionstrong Fri 07/6/01, 1:04am Hello, Lali; Your question is a good one. I know my answer will not be complete, but hopefully it will be a good start that maybe others will finish. Your question is a moral one concerning incest. And I didn't have and answer until recently. First let me deal with what I think is a wrong answer. I believe that pragmatism is wrong, that is, what makes something right is if it is practical; does it makes sense (supposedly) practically to do so. What I've heard given is a pragmatic answer: "Siblings just had to marry because there was no one else!" This answer puts morality on a pragmatic basis rather than on the law of God where it ought to be, as you rightly see. Others may disagree, but I think my answer keeps morality where it ought to be, grounded in the law of God. My answer is not hard to understand; it's simple. It is based on the principle that to God "is due... whatsoever worship, service, or obedience He is pleased to require of them." (Westminster Confession of Faith, Chap. 2, para. 2) So if God says do not eat a certain fruit in the middle of a certain garden, then it's sin to eat that fruit. Or if He says that only certain men are to carry a certain box by means of poles, then God is justified in striking a certain Uzzah down for touching it. Contrariwise, if God rescinds a law He had given, then it is no longer sin not to keep that rescinded law. God has rescinded the ceremonial laws, so not keeping the Old Testament Passover is no longer sin. So, I hope by now you see where I'm leading, Lali. God at this point had not forbidden incest. Therefore, at this point in time it was not sin. One might object, "Well I can understand God changing a ceremonial law, but incest is immoral! Aren't the moral laws of God universal and absolute? Yes, for man they are ... as long as God requires obedience to those laws. God is not bound by the law. And man is bound by certain laws of God so long as He chooses to bind him to some, any, or all of His laws. |

234 | Is God ONE or is God THREE? | James 2:19 | Lionstrong | 37360 | ||
I don't understand your use of "spirit of God." Please explain. You wrote, "I believe the Father was speaking of Christ--the fleshly tabernacle or body..." So, the Son is the body of the spirit of God and not the person? Please explain. My opinion on this point is that the Father, who is a person, was refering to his Son, who is another person. Jerry is my son, with whom I am (sometimes) well pleased. :) Peace, Lionstrong |

Hi Tim! As far as I've read the thread, I like the discussion so far. Question: Matt 3:17 and behold, a voice out of the heavens said, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased." Who was the Father talking to, the Son of God or the Son of man? Peace, Lionstrong |

Hi BWJ, Matt 16:11 "How is it that you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees." Matt 16:12 Then they understood that He did not say to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees. Jesus did make such distinctions. Peace, Lionstrong |

238 | CLARIFY ADVANTAGES OF THE CORRECT THEORY | Bible general Archive 1 | Lionstrong | 37300 | ||
Clarification: "Theory," when used in contrast to "Practice," is also used with reference to something that CAN be proven. Its meaning would be, "rules or knowledge of an art as distinguished from practice." New Expanded Webster's Dictionary, P.S.I. and Associantes, Inc, 1989. Peace, Lionstrong |

Gen 2:19 Out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called a living creature, that was its name. Hi Angel, You, write, "nothing we can think of or create ourselves matters." In light of the above verse which shows God's interest in man's thoughts, I would disagree with your sentiment. Man's thoughts are not insignificant to God. Because man is the image of God, and is therefore not insignificant; what he thinks, says and does is not insignificant. In his significance he can bring forth into the visible world that which is beautiful and good or that which is cruel and ugly. The first record of artistic expression of beauty is when Adam first saw Eve. He made up a poem: "This is now bone of my bones, And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man." By means of misdirected piety, don't make your artistic work something that doesn't matter. The fact that God judges our works, artistic or otherwise, is also proof that they matter. Col 3:17 Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father Thanks for YOUR thoghts, Peace, Lionstrong |
