Just a question if I may? I thought rhema never contradicted logos. Isn't that what is happening here with the scriptural support being giving. I'm only asking because I'm curious and would like to understand a little better. If rhema doesn’t reconcile with logos, is it really rhema? WOS |

I’m well aware of what the words mean. In the post I responded to, you claimed God speaks rhema to your spirit and what the bible teaches is overlooked because of a dogmatic approach. You separated the two of them, rhema and logos. Rhema and logos are in fact interchangeable words with the same basic meaning. What happens is some take rhema to mean only God actually speaking or uttering to them privately. The same claim logos is only God’s written word as recorded in our Bible. But the words are not that different. The problem with separating rhema and logos is that you claim with rhema, that God can and often does speak to you outside of His Word pertaining to a subject within His Word and also those not covered by His written Word. If He does that, to what do you have to compare it to? Nothing. Therefore you have not the confidence you should have to know that it was in fact God speaking to you. God’s word will speak to you. He doesn’t need to give private sessions. Just my opinion. WOS |

I wondered if you would be interested in how Matthew Henry thought on the subject? 1Co 14:34-35 - Here the apostle, 1. Enjoins silence on their women in public assemblies, and to such a degree that they must not ask questions for their own information in the church, but ask their husbands at home. They are to learn in silence with all subjection; but, says the apostle, I suffer them not to teach, 1Ti_2:11, 1Ti_2:12. There is indeed an intimation (1Co_11:5) as if the women sometimes did pray and prophecy in their assemblies, which the apostle, in that passage, does not simply condemn, but the manner of performance, that is, praying or prophesying with the head uncovered, which, in that age and country, was throwing off the distinction of sexes, and setting themselves on a level with the men. But here he seems to forbid all public performances of theirs. They are not permitted to speak (1Co_14:34) in the church, neither in praying nor prophesying. The connection seems plainly to include the latter, in the limited sense in which it is taken in this chapter, namely, for preaching, or interpreting scripture by inspiration. And, indeed, for a woman to prophesy in this sense were to teach, which does not so well befit her state of subjection. A teacher of others has in that respect a superiority over them, which is not allowed the woman over the man, nor must she therefore be allowed to teach in a congregation: I suffer them not to teach. But praying, and uttering hymns inspired, were not teaching. And seeing there were women who had spiritual gifts of this sort in that age of the church (see Act_22:9), and might be under this impulse in the assembly, must they altogether suppress it? Or why should they have this gift, if it must never be publicly exercised? For these reasons, some think that these general prohibitions are only to be understood in common cases; but that upon extraordinary occasions, when women were under a divine afflatus, and known to be so, they might have liberty of speech. They were not ordinarily to teach, nor so much as to debate and ask questions in the church, but learn in silence there; and, if difficulties occurred, ask their own husbands at home. Note, As it is the woman's duty to learn in subjection, it is the man's duty to keep up his superiority, by being able to instruct her; if it be her duty to ask her husband at home, it is his concern and duty to endeavour at lest to be able to answer her enquiries; if it be a shame for her to speak in the church, where she should be silent, it is a shame for him to be silent when he should speak, and not be able to give an answer, when she asks him at home. 2. We have here the reason of this injunction: It is God's law and commandment that they should be under obedience (1Co_14:34); they are placed in subordination to the man, and it is a shame for them to do any thing that looks like an affectation of changing ranks, which speaking in public seemed to imply, at least in that age, and among that people, as would public teaching much more: so that the apostle concludes it was a shame for women to speak in the church, in the assembly. Shame is the mind's uneasy reflection on having done an indecent thing. And what more indecent than for a woman to quit her rank, renounce the subordination of her sex, or do what in common account had such aspect and appearance? Note, Our spirit and conduct should be suitable to our rank. The natural distinctions God has made, we should observe. Those he has placed in subjection to others should not set themselves on a level, nor affect or assume superiority. The woman was made subject to the man, and she should keep her station and be content with it. For this reason women must be silent in the churches, not set up for teachers; for this is setting up for superiority over the man.--Matthew Henry WOS |

Searcher, You’re correct and I apologize. Problem was, I copied form within e-sword so I didn’t have a link directly. In the future, I’ll try to link to a reliable web-site. I’m curious concerning your comments: “Matthew Henry is looking at this passage ... but not others on this subject, which can be dangerous.” In referencing his commentary on the subject throughout scripture, I have found them to very consistently speak on the same terms. This is the case with other commentators as well. Have you found otherwise? WOS |

Love of what? Trying to minimize the commandments of God seems a very tragic thing does it not. You say, "THE commandment, in one word (rater than 613 commandments, or ten commandments, or 2 commandments, or even one commandment, summarized as 1 word is .... LOVE)". Does a love of money or a love of sexual impurity or love of sin meet the commandment as you have laid out here? If our Lord was sure to specify what our love should be directed to, who are we to change that? Just asking. Stand in His grace, WOS |

I’m not that familiar with the 613, but I do know what you are referencing. I’ll refer you to a couple of old posts and the conversation about them. Numbers 169621 and 169680. The 613 you mention were not what our Lord was referring to when he said He fulfilled the law or that we will have fulfilled them. He said and I’ll quote the scripture, and please focus on v40. Matthew 22:36-40: 36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law? 37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. How many did He state? And Christian love is an action not an emotion dear friend. God out of love for those who didn’t love Him gave His Son. His Son gave His life to save us. That is the love we are to emulate. That is love in action. That is love. Stand in His grace, WOS |

Someothername, Since you make such heavy reference to the 613, and the fact that Jesus fulfilled them, can you give me your thoughts considering the following? Again, I’m not an expert but below or some of the 613 laws I think you reference. 63: To be fruitful and multiply (Gen. 1:28). Jesus had no children. 70: To take a wife by kiddushin, the sacrament of marriage (Deut. 24:1). Jesus had no wife. 565: That a leper is unclean and defiles: Mark 1:40-42: 40 And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. 41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean. 42 And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed 573: That a woman, having a running issue, defiles: Matthew 9:20-22: 20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: 21 For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. 22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour. 575: That a corpse defiles: Luke 8:49-55: 49 While he yet spake, there cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master. 50 But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole. 51 And when he came into the house, he suffered no man to go in, save Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden. 52 And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. 53 And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead. 54 And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise. 55 And her spirit came again, and she arose straightway: and he commanded to give her meat. Isn’t it proper to understand the moral law fulfilled and adhered to, the ten commandments, the first four dealing with our duty to God and the last six our duty to man thus summed up by the two our Lord referred to?

Don't put words in my mouth friend. I never implied that Jesus, concerning God's laws, did not or has not and will not succeed in doing just what He said He would. That’s off the point a bit isn’t it, and I may have contributed to that. There are no more ceremonial laws or such that apply to us, for they all pointed to Christ who fulfilled them, as you say in spirit. But the moral law still stands today and that is why Christ referred to the two He did, to capture the spirit of those Ten Commandments that we can’t live up to, let alone 613. Back to my original point, our Lord gave us two commandments that have us fulfilling the ten if we could live those out. He specified what those are. We should do the same, not try to minimize the commandments into a word. Westminster Confession of Faith: Chapter XIX, Of the Law of God II. This law, after his fall, continued to be a perfect rule of righteousness; and, as such, was delivered by God upon Mount Sinai, in ten commandments, and written in two tables: the first four commandments containing our duty towards God; and the other six, our duty to man. III. Besides this law, commonly called moral, God was pleased to give to the people of Israel, as a church under age, ceremonial laws, containing several typical ordinances, partly of worship, prefiguring Christ, His graces, actions, sufferings, and benefits; and partly, holding forth divers instructions of moral duties. All which ceremonial laws are now abrogated, under the New Testament. IV. To them also, as a body politic, He gave sundry judicial laws, which expired together with the State of that people; not obliging under any now, further than the general equity thereof may require. And just to clarify, and we can move on from this topic, Christian Love, not simply love, is the basis of fulfilling the moral love. For Christian love is not a passive love, but one that burst into action fueled from Godly compassion for a Father who loves us when we turn away, a Savior who suffered instead of and for us and brothers and sisters who struggle throughout this world on a daily basis. And since that Love is from God to begin with, to Him be all the glory. Now we can move on. Stand in His grace, WOS |

You stated: “David’s little romp with Bathsheba and the resulting murder of Uriah prove that a follower of God CAN lose salvation. And you can’t argue with the Bible. Revelation 22:15 says that murderers will have their place in the lake of fire.” I beg to differ. All this proves is that David was a sinner and that he was human. Throughout all of what we read concerning David, where is it mentioned that he had lost his salvation? You made the statement, now back it up, because until you do, it’s your word against God’s and I’ll believe His. John 3:15-16(NIV) 15that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life. 16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Ephesians 2:8(NIV) 8For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God Titus 3:4-5(NIV) 4But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, 5he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, 2 Corinthians 1:21-22(NIV) 21Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, 22set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come. “Nothing can render God's promises more certain: his giving them through Christ, assures us they are his promises; as the wonders God wrought in the life, resurrection, and ascension of his Son, confirm faith. The Holy Spirit makes Christians firm in the faith of the gospel: the quickening of the Spirit is an earnest of everlasting life; and the comforts of the Spirit are an earnest of everlasting joy.” – Matthew Henry. Philippians 1:6(NIV) 6being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. 1 Peter 1:3-5(NIV) 3Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade—kept in heaven for you, 5who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. Shielded by God’s power. If that doesn’t give you a sense of security… “No one will come, till Divine grace has subdued, and in part changed his heart; therefore no one who comes will ever be cast out.” – Matthew Henry 1 John 4:4 (NIV) 4You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. John 10:27-30(NIV) 27My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. 28I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. 29My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. 30I and the Father are one." “This is true of "my sheep." No power created is sufficient to pluck them out of His hand. Even the "free will" of the sheep cannot, and will not, bring him to the point of perishing.”… …“Not only is it revealed that God is disposed to keep the one whom He has saved, but the true child of God is also a gift of the Father to the Son (Jhn 10:29; 17:6, 9, 11) and has been committed to the keeping power of the Father by the prayer of the Son. "Holy Father keep." That prayer will be answered.”… …” Thus it may be concluded that should the saved one be lost, the eternal purpose of God will have been thwarted. Admitting this, it must be concluded that He Who can design a universe whose remotest star shall not deviate by a second from its appointments throughout the ages; Who can plan the universe from the highest arch-angel to the marvelous organism of the smallest insect; Whose purpose has never yet been known to fail—that such a God may be defeated by the mere creature His hands have made. If the saved one is finally lost, it must also be concluded that God is, to that degree, lacking in power. He Who has testified that not one of His sheep will ever perish, must yet retract His bold assertions and humbly submit to a power that is greater than His own. He Who created and holds the universe in His hands; Who calls things that are not as though they were; Who could speak the word and dismiss every atom of matter and life from existence forever must retire before the over-lordship of some creature of His hand.” - Lewis Sperry Chafer Read Romans 8:35-39 and then consider if we could lose our salvation, we would have to say that Jesus and Paul were liars, for they tell us that it is eternal, once we have it, it will never end.

Thanks Doc. Am I correct in thinking that Romans 12:2 is applicable as well Romans 8:1-15? Your thoughts? Romans 12:2(ASV) And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, and ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God. "Your mind - The word translated “mind” properly denotes intellect, as distinguished from the will and affections. But here it seems to be used as applicable to the whole spirit as distinguished from the body, including the understanding, will, and affections. As if he had said, Let not this change appertain to the body only, but to the soul. Let it not be a mere external conformity, but let it have its seat in the spirit. All external changes, if the mind was not changed, would be useless, or would be hypocrisy. Christianity seeks to reign in the soul; and having its seat there, the external conduct and habits will be regulated accordingly." - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible WOS |

Doc, My thanks for the information and links. I will surely visit those, but prior to, I wanted to express my thoughts and who knows, maybe after further study, I’ll gain an even better understanding. My thoughts are that once a regenerate is confirmed to be, by God’s workings, the will, which is still totally free to choose based on ones own thoughts and rationale, becomes a submissive will to God, and therefore desires God’s will for himself and acts upon that accordingly. I see many “free-willers” (which I am one) misunderstand just what free will is as Biblically defined. The misrepresentation is that once a person is indwelt by the Spirit of God, and sealed as God’s, that for one reason or another, should they so choose, they can reject God’s grace because of their free will and God’s honoring of that will which allows them to do so. This almost seems to negate any effect the Holy Spirit has on the person and insinuates that we can arrogantly overrule God’s calling and election and sealing. Almost to the point that the Holy Spirit is nothing more than ineffective and unable to keep us as promised. I find it hard to understand how one can claim to be saved and then directly say that he can loose that salvation should he choose to. In my opinion, one who is saved would not have the option of then choosing to be unsaved, because as God’s Word informs us, salvation, once graciously given onto a child of God, is forever, and our will, though free, is acting largely in part on other principles instituted by the Spirit and not so much on principles held in our hopeless, unregenerate state, although I think they coexist to an extent until glorification. Wouldn’t rejection be a frontal process and not an intermediate or later process? That once there was acceptance of God’s grace, and only as our response according to His calling, rejection would cease to be a factor. Your post from Perman “…we always choose according to our greatest desire…” had me thinking on the lines as to what drives our thought processes and determines just what we actually desire based on those. I was simply looking for more thoughts on the subject as I find this particular one to be most intriguing. Thank again for yours Brother. WOS |

Dear Bows44, I'm afraid that in your frustration, you are quoting and using Scripture out of context. Although Paul made note of those preaching Christ with wrong motives, he in no way condones our partaking in those same insincere acts. 12Now I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel. 13As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ. 14Because of my chains, most of the brothers in the Lord have been encouraged to speak the word of God more courageously and fearlessly. 15It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill. 16The latter do so in love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel. 17The former preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can stir up trouble for me while I am in chains. 18But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice. Yes, and I will continue to rejoice, 19for I know that through your prayers and the help given by the Spirit of Jesus Christ, what has happened to me will turn out for my deliverance. 20I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death. (15-18) Paul considers the motives of men in their preaching of the gospel Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife; their desire is to "surpass" Paul in ministry, and to promote their own name and place above Paul's. These people were glad Paul was imprisoned, because they felt this gave them a "competitive edge" over him in the "contest" of preaching the gospel; they were motivated by a competitive spirit (common among preachers!). Those preaching the gospel out of wrong motives are infected with selfish ambition, which makes them minister not sincerely. Ambition isn't necessarily bad; there is nothing wrong in wanting to be the best we can be for God. But selfish ambition is concerned most with being thought of by others as a success; pleasing man instead of God. Those who preach Christ from the wrong motives were supposing to add affliction to my [Paul's] chains; their competitive hearts didn't only want themselves to "win," they wanted Paul to "lose". They wanted Paul to endure the "humiliation" of having to admit that others were more effective to him (something Paul honestly didn't care about, not having a competitive spirit in ministry). Others, thankfully, were preaching the gospel out of good will, and out of love. So, people were preaching the gospel more energetically, motivated by Paul's imprisonment. Some were motivated in a good way, some were motivated in a bad way, but nonetheless they were motivated - and Paul could rejoice in that! Remember that Paul's concern here is not with the gospel that is being preached; only with the motives behind those who are preaching. Paul would object if he thought a false or distorted gospel was being preached, even if from the best of motives. (Galatians 1:6-9) If Paul's imprisonment could not hinder the gospel, neither could the wrong motives of some - God's work was still being done, and that was cause for rejoicing. Guzik, David.

I found this. Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, a modern apostle of peace and love, is the head of the world’s second largest and oldest Christian faith community. Based in a Moslem country on the fault-line between East and West, Christianity and Islam, the developed and developing worlds, His All Holiness is, by tradition, the 270th successor to an actual apostle of Jesus Christ, St Andrew, the first-called apostle and brother of St. Peter. The Ecumenical Patriarchate has existed in what was known as Asia Minor, modern-day Turkey, since the fourth century A.D. when Emperor Constantine moved the capital of the Roman Empire to Constantinople (now Istanbul), a city that he built. His All Holiness Bartholomew has led the world’s 300 million Orthodox Christians for 13 years, quietly bringing together major religious leaders and intervening in wars and conflicts and the environmental crisis. http://www.archons.org/patriarchate/holiness.asp WOS |

Pay close attention to the last Mark, for it seems you are beyond the point of simply trying to be helpful or uplifting.

If salvation is by the grace of God, then there aren’t any restrictions, no limits. "Jesus Christ takes many to his bosom, whose company we should have shunned, when they were in their evil state. Sovereign mercy can dash into sinful places, and take captives! Free grace can go into the gutter, and bring up a jewel! Divine love can rake a dunghill, and find a diamond! There is no spot where God's grace cannot and will not go!" - From Spurgeon's sermon, "A DIVINE CHALLENGE!"
