1 | True fact of future sin | Heb 6:4 | CDBJ | 243810 | ||
It is the quintessence of human arrogance and blasphemy, for one who claims to be a believer, saved by grace, to infer that they are able to commit a sin that God didn’t realize that they would commit when they were originally saved. One who would admit to such a condition is surly teetering on the brink of the sin unto death to say the least; if they are unable to assimilate the truth of Bible doctrine in this life, God can definitely orientate them to His surpassing grace in the life to come. Romans 8:38-39 (NASB) Ro 38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Greetings, Luke 22:36 (NASB) 36 And He said to them, "But now, whoever has a money belt is to take it along, likewise also a bag, and whoever has no sword is to sell his coat and buy one. Today this would be construed as the best weapon for self defense, and that would be a handgun, concealed, and with the full knowledge of how to use it proficiently along with the proper CCW license and common knowledge of observation, i.e. cover your sixes. We are living in strange times to say the least; if these aren’t the last days they aren’t too far in the future. He who has an ear let him hear! Have a great day, CDBJ P.S. Check the history of what was known as the Moravian Indians in Ohio. They didn’t even try to defend them selves, being Christians, and as a result it put the message of salvation, i.e. The Gospel back numerous years before any Native Americans would have anything to do with it! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gnadenhutten_massacre |

4 | Judgement of believers | Matt 7:21 | CDBJ | 242222 | ||
Greetings, Instead of beating around the bush I’ll just try and explain what I think I have found as a postulate from several different verses of Scripture. Hebrews 9:27 (NASB) 27 And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment, There are in fact seven different types of deaths mentioned in the Bible, physical death, spiritual death, operational death, positional death etc. but the one mentioned in Heb 9:27 is a reference to physical death. During the period known as the Millennium there will be children born, and as with today, they will have old sin natures and the need to be born again in order to have eternal life. Many will trust in the finished grace work of Christ that was accomplished on the cross. Still others will reject God’s gracious gift of salvation that is in Christ and will rebel against perfect environment when Satan is granted access back into the world. Rev. 20:2,3 and Rev. 20:7-9 There is no judgment mentioned in Scripture between the judgment seat of Christ, or the BEMA seat, and the white throne judgment. As a result we find the mention of books and a book in Rev.20, and the fact that it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment. These statements combined would have to place born again believers at the white throne judgment where the names of those believers will be found in the, “singular”, book of life. i.e. They haven’t been blotted out of the book of life. The books of works designates that the dead, i.e. the lost souls are depending on things that they have done to impress God. They tried to gain His approbation or approval for eternal life by what they did instead of depending on the salvation that God provided as a free gift from a gracious loving God. Any one that doesn’t have the righteousness that is of God will never have eternal life with God. God the father has made the total provision for eternal life resident within the person of His Son. 2 Corinthians 5:21 (AMP) 21 For our sake He made Christ [virtually] to be sin Who knew no sin, so that in and through Him we might become [endued with, viewed as being in, and examples of] the righteousness of God [what we ought to be, approved and acceptable and in right relationship with Him, by His goodness]. Those that think they have to die before they know for sure if they have eternal life aren’t trusting God and what He says in His Word, the Bible. John 3:18 (NKJV) 18 He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 3:36 (NKJV) 36 He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." 1 John 5:10-13 (AMP) 10 He who believes in the Son of God [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Him] has the testimony [possesses this divine attestation] within himself. He who does not believe God [in this way] has made Him out to be and represented Him as a liar, because he has not believed (put his faith in, adhered to, and relied on) the evidence (the testimony) that God has borne regarding His Son. 11 And this is that testimony (that evidence): God gave us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who possesses the Son has that life; he who does not possess the Son of God does not have that life. 13 I write this to you who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) the name of the Son of God [in the peculiar services and blessings conferred by Him on men], so that you may know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that you [already] have life, yes, eternal life. Have a great day, CDBJ |

5 | Judgement of believers | Matt 7:21 | CDBJ | 242213 | ||
For sake of clarification let me put it another way. Will there be any born again believers judged at the great white throne judgment as enumerated in the following? Revelation 20:11-15 (NASB) 11 Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat upon it, from whose presence earth and heaven fled away, and no place was found for them. 12 And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in the books, according to their deeds. 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged, every one of them according to their deeds. 14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. 15 And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire. Considering these verses as well as other verses that may be found in Scripture pertaining to judgment. CDBJ. |

Greetings, The question was, will there be any believers at the white throne judgment not unbelievers, which is what you have alluded to. The verses that you emphasized are defiantly unbelievers even if they think they aren’t; this is pointed out by the response that Jesus made. Matthew 7:23 (KJV) 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. The key to previous verse is in the Lord’s response “I never knew you” with emphasis on the word never. You made the statement and I quote, “This is something not many teach on. But just believing in Jesus Christ is not salvation. He has to be Lord and Master of our lives, in very aspect. Many believe few serve in that belief.” Salvation isn’t a cumulative thing that takes place over an extended period of time, it’s instantaneous. The glitch in the, so called, believing of many resides in their understanding of the Greek word translated, “believe”. The English word believe comes from the Koine Greek root word PISTIS. The words believe, in the English, suggest merely giving mental assent to something which will give those that are doing it a very long hot stay for an eternity in the lake of fire! The word PISTIS and or PISTEUO in the Greek conveys the following which is amplified in the Amplified Bible. John 3:16 (AMP) 16 For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life. The very instant that anyone places their undivided trust in the person of Jesus Christ and what He did on the cross for them are saved from that moment on for all of eternity. It’s a by GRACE through Faith operation plus nothing. God’s plan of salvation through faith His Son is a perfect plain and anything that man does to try and earn it nullifies God’s perfect plan. The example from Scripture, that you suggested, doesn’t show that there will be believers at the great white throne judgment. The actual answer to the question is deduced from several verses, it’s just putting them in order that answers the question. Have a great day, CDBJ |

9 | Defend the Offender-Attack the Offended? | Bible general | CDBJ | 241667 | ||
I have found that it’s best to turn many situations over to the throne of grace and let the Lord iron out the problems. If there has been any wrong doing He is more then able to fix the situation and there is a time coming when we must all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. Then there is are several promise we can claim. Isaiah 26:3 (NASB) "The steadfast of mind You will keep in perfect peace, Because he trusts in You. Job 5:21 (NASB) (A) "You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, Proverbs 6:16 (NASB) There are six things which the LORD hates, Yes, seven which are an abomination to Him: Number seven is: Proverbs 6:19 (NASB) 19 A false witness who utters lies, And one who spreads strife among brothers .

Greetings, I know I am a little late with this post but I finally found time to redeem the same and I would like to say that I enjoyed your post! Backing up a little we see the same thing emphasized by Jesus in John’s gospel and to admit less would not be in keeping with sound doctrine. John 16:7-12 (NASB) 7 "But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you. 8 "And He, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment; Notice what the single sin is that will condemn humanity and it is being communicated by the Holy Spirit Himself; this is the only sin that Jesus didn't and couldn't pay the price for on the cross! 9 concerning sin, because they do not believe in Me; 10 and concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father and you no longer see Me; 11 and concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged. 12 "I have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. The sad part is there are humans that don’t care to bear what He, the Spirit, is telling them and their heart gets harder and harder! What the righteousness of God demands the justice of God must execute. CDBJ |

Greetings, All that the forum members can do it communicate Scripture. It’s the responsibility of those hearing God’s Word to be receptive to the teaching of the Holy Spirit who is the real teacher. You should be asking the Father for understanding if you are one of His. John 6:45 (NKJV) It is written in the prophets, 'And they shall all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me. (JESUS) Those that aren't controlled by the filling of the Spirit while witnessing of the works of the Lord are operating in the energy of their flesh, i.e. the old sin nature, and have lost their effectiveness as it were like salt that fails to preserve. John 3:18 (AMP) 18 He who believes in Him [who clings to, trusts in, relies on Him] (JESUS) is not judged [he who trusts in Him never comes up for judgment; for him there is no rejection, no condemnation—he incurs no damnation]; but he who does not believe (cleave to, rely on, trust in Him) is judged already [he has already been convicted and has already received his sentence] because he has not believed in and trusted in the name of the only begotten Son of God. [He is condemned for refusing to let his trust rest in Christ's name.] CDBJ |

13 | time lapse between Gen 1:1 and G | Gen 1:1 | CDBJ | 239772 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. Your question is in regards to Gen: 1:2 and the length of time. Genesis 1:2 (NKJV) 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. This is a highly controversial subject in some Christian circles. “The earth was”, is actually translated from the Hebrew words, (tohu wabohu), which suggest that it became something different then how it was created. It literally became a garbage dump that stinks. This would explain what the agenda was of Satan when he was cast out of heaven along with one third of all the angles. What most refer to a six day of creation, with this theory in mind, would actually be six days of restoration so the earth would be sufficient for the life of mankind. Along with this thesis is what is called the concept of the angelic conflict as a means of settling the assumption by Lucifer, that a loving God couldn’t send any of his creation to a place of fire and brimstone for an eternity. The creation of mankind being lower then the angles, more or less, settles this misconception with out any doubt, which the following confirms about Satan’s useless rebuttal; Matthew 25:41 (NKJV) 41 Then He will also say to those on the left hand, 'Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: When ever an unbeliever believes in the finish work of Christ on the cross it resolves the angelic conflict and clarifies that God is not only a God of love but a God of absolute righteousness and justice, i.e. the essence of God’s Holyness. “What the righteousness of God demands the justice of God must execute!” Lucifer’s stay of execution is drawing to a rapid close when he and one third of the angel will be cast into the lake of fire along with all unbelievers at the white throne judgment.

The millions of phony religions of the world i.e. the devil’s deceptive plan of salvation by works. Christianity is a grace operation and not a religion but a relationship with God the father through the Son Jesus the anointed one. John 14:6 (NKJV) 6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 3:18 (NKJV) 18 He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 3:36 (NKJV) 36 He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." 1 John 5:10-13 (NKJV) 10 He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son. 11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. 13 These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

It is obvious that every time when God would punish the Israelites because they were negative toward God’s Word and disobedient that He would use their enemies to administer their discipline. America, as a nation has gone negative toward God’s desired will for them as a nation and as a result, America as a nation, has fallen under God’s punishment and it appears as though He is using their enemies, the Muslims to administer Americas just due. Galatians 6:7 (NKJV) 7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. This holds true for a nation as well in principal! CDBJ |

18 | Will God forgive and accept me again? | NT general | CDBJ | 238747 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. The main question is, do you believe what God says in His Word? You would best start off with, 1 John 1:9 (AMP) 9 If we [freely] admit that we have sinned and confess our sins, He is faithful and just (true to His own nature and promises) and will forgive our sins [dismiss our lawlessness] and [continuously] cleanse us from all unrighteousness [everything not in conformity to His will in purpose, thought, and action]. The next step would be to memorize the following. 1 John 5:10-13 (AMP) 10 He who believes in the Son of God [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Him] has the testimony [possesses this divine attestation] within himself. He who does not believe God [in this way] has made Him out to be and represented Him as a liar, because he has not believed (put his faith in, adhered to, and relied on) the evidence (the testimony) that God has borne regarding His Son. 11 And this is that testimony (that evidence): God gave us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who possesses the Son has that life; he who does not possess the Son of God does not have that life. 13 I write this to you who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) the name of the Son of God [in the peculiar services and blessings conferred by Him on men], so that you may know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that you [already] have life, yes, eternal life. It seems as though you are having a hard time believing what God says. What is truth, your feelings or what God says? Ephesians 1:13-14 (AMP) 13 In Him you also who have heard the Word of Truth, the glad tidings (Gospel) of your salvation, and have believed in and adhered to and relied on Him, were stamped with the seal of the long-promised Holy Spirit. 14 That [Spirit] is the guarantee of our inheritance [the firstfruits, the pledge and foretaste, the down payment on our heritage], in anticipation of its full redemption and our acquiring [complete] possession of it—to the praise of His glory. Read the Gospel of John and trust in the promises that God presents! I hope you enjoy the forum and gain confidence in what the Word of God is telling you! CDBJ |

Greetings and welcome to the forum. The Bible in the original language of the New Testament didn’t use diacritical marks such as commas periods and so on. Diacritical marks are usually the result of an inferior language. The Koine Greek of the original Language, used by the New Testament, was able to accomplish the same function by the use of syntax. I hope you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |
