1	1Thes what group didn't believe Paul	1 Thessalonians	STTIL	137694
	I have read through 1 Thess, trying to figure out what you are asking, and can't seem to find any clue. Could you maybe give a verse concerning your question to work with here? In His Love,
2	I'll try to make my question more clear	Bible general Archive 2	STTIL	137692
	Christ spoke as to why he spoke in parables. Matt 13:13 (KJV) Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. Read a parable, doesn't it create a picture in your mind as you read. Alot of the "allegory" helps to make the Word more living and real. The Word has a lot of figures of speech to do that very thing. The phrase "heap coals of fire on his head" to overcome evil with good, was a common idiom to the people of Biblical times, it brought home for them the lesson of overcoming evil with good, it gave them a mind picture to make the lesson living and real. Notice your own words when you said "the picture of a bride" representing God's people, there is no literal picture there, but the words have created a mind picture, it makes the lesson living and real. Does this help? In His Love,
3	Praising and Satan Fleeing??	Ps 22:3	STTIL	137638
	How about: James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (KJV) -- Young's Bible James 4:7 be subject, then, to God; stand up against the devil, and he will flee from you; Literal with Strong's number: 7. 5293 Be subject, 3767 therefore, 2316 to God. 0436 Oppose 3588 the 1228 devil, 2532 and 5343 he will run away 0575 from 5216 you. This verse gives us two things to do, submit to God, oppose the devil. I've always liked this verse, sometimes it is the two things I seem to forget to do the most often. In His Love,
4	When was the book of Job written?	Job	STTIL	137546
	While readig a study on the Hebrew words used for God in the Old Testament the author mentioned that "it has been suggested by some scholars that the events recorded in the book of Job may have occurred before the time of Moses." This was new to me and I came here to see what you all had written on the subject. Some other interesting notes (not to prove or disprove anything, just some interesting notes): E.W. Bullinger says the it is probable that Job was the son of Issachar (Gen 46:13) which would put Job in Midian around the same time Moses was in Midian(Job dying around the time Moses was 55) In Exodus 6:3 (KJV) God said "I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty [Hebrew: el shaddai], but by my name Jehovah was I not known to them." The term el shaddai is used 6 times in Genesis, 31 times in Job, but only 11 times in all of the other writing of the Old Testament.
5	What wrong with standing against evil?	Prov 29:2	STTIL	137501
	1 Timothy 2 (KJV) 1. I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 2. For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 3. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; We who have the privledge to vote should vote our conscience, but as the Body we are instructed to pray for those in authority, both within the church and civil authority. We are to lead a peaceable life, overcoming evil with good.
6	Why no love herein?	Bible general Archive 2	STTIL	137198
	Even though I disagree with some of the religious views of this forum, for the most part the members here speak with sincerity and with AgapeLove. They do get a little "pharisee" on you if you disagree with the trinity, but still most will speak to the subject in love.
7	Being in the Beloved?	Col 1:12	STTIL	137193
	On the surface these two verses appear to speak to the same thing, however, Eph 1:6 tells us we are accepted (charitoo)in His Love (agapao) while Col 1:13 tells us that He has made us fit (hikanoo) for our participation (meris) in the Body (hagios) of Christ(phos). So simply put, one is our standing with God, while the other concerns our walk, both by the grace of God. In His Love STTIL
8	Be Angry and Sin Not , Verse Reference?	Eph 4:26	STTIL	137066
	Anger in and of itself is not a sin. Mark (KJV)3:1And he [Jesus] entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man there which had a withered hand. 2And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day; that they might accuse him. 3And he saith unto the man which had the withered hand, Stand forth. 4And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace. 5And when he had looked round about on them with anger[Jesus was angry!], being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it out: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
