Lionheart, Eph.4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. What is the word in this verse that you are referring to? or what is the critical interpretation of this text in which you are interested in? Are you trying to ask about time and place with this scripture? |

No problem, I think that is what I understood you to say. That's why I said that the cause, i.e means is Love. | ||||||

Beja, By all means ask. How else will God's people see eye to eye? In response to your reply... First let me just say that I believe justification is a righteous process, therefore a pardon of sins have had to already taken place and that would be repentance. However I will try to explain how I see it. Sanctification means to be set apart or aside. You may ask aside for what? Peter best describes this in 2PT.2:20-21. So in a sense, the sanctification is done by God. How does God know who to sanctify? He knows by the seal they will have (2Pt.2:19 and Eph.4:30) which only comes by the baptism of the holy spirit. Once the spirit of God is working inside, we begin to pray in the spirit and it will help us in our weaknesses. Paul said in 1Cor.14:15 ... I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also. Because the spirit will help us understand better the truth of the word of God (Jn.16:13) As we continue in our walk with God in prayers, in fasting, reading, and studying we begin to learn of him and of his great love (Mt.11:29). That Love causes all things that come against us to work for good, (Rom.8:28) because we are to glory in tribulations (Rom.5:3)... it will cause us to walk worthy of His calling (Col.1:10, 1Thes.2:12) which is predestined. That is not a set thing, it is a matter of choice, because not all are automatically children of God... My point, is that its both working at the same time. We are being sanctified at the same time justified, sanctification cannot come without justification and that is not of ourselves lest we should boast and say that is of what "I" that saved me (Eph.2:8-9). Remember he is the potter and we are the clay, he is molding us and shaping us for his use. It is however up to us if we are to be vessels of honor or vessels of dishonor 2Tim.2:20. Faith in my understanding is in fact the truth we have learned, applied in our lives. It is what in fact drives us, just as it drove those in the old testament (some mentioned in Hebrews 11). So if you allow me to interject here my definition into the scripture in Hebrews 11:1... By THE APPLIED TRUTH OF THE WORD OF GOD IN DAILY LIFE is the substance hoped for, the evidence OF ETERNAL LIFE not YET seen. That is how we are made fit for the Master's use... Hope I was clear... |

7 | How did Moses know he was Jewish? | Exodus | Jsph | 229451 | ||
Hello Beja, Thank you for your question. God himself has created that pattern of "make" he didn't just "set" things in the sense of putting things the way they go. He created a process, and a process that must be chosen by the person. Jesus said in Jn.8:31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. So in the continuance of his word meaning doing it, living it on a daily basis, will make that person free from the bondage of sin (which is death). God begins a work in those who chose (I keep saying chose because in fact there are people who chose not to live for God) to live for him. That work is the process that MAKES us sons or daughters of God. That process is the adoption process spoken of in Romans 8. In contrast when something is "set" there is no process, it just is. Please look to Gen.1:16-18. Therefore the way or process that I see in being made is the pressing way towards the mark of the prize of the high calling. God's people will not be "set" there, they will press their way towards it with the help of Jesus through his holy spirit that is shed abroad upon our hearts. |

10 | How did Moses know he was Jewish? | Exodus | Jsph | 229444 | ||
Moses always new he was a Hebrew (Jewish didn't come until after the law was given). However Moses' mother raised him, please look to Exodus 2:5-9 Note: most shows are being led by their own ideas and not the bible much less the spirit of God. That is why questions are so important. Hope this helps |

11 | when did jesus ascend into heaven? | Acts | Jsph | 229442 | ||
Hello, Acts1:9 shows Jesus going up. Later on after Jesus ascended, 7 days to be exact. Peter testified that Jesus was now at that point at the right hand of God, and has shed out the promise of the holy spirit from the Father upon them. Acts2:33. Hope it helps |

12 | do animals have souls? | 2 Tim 2:15 | Jsph | 229440 | ||
Answer... Please notice Psa. 49 and notice what the psalmist says about the fool in verses 10 to 13. Also in Eccl. 3 verses 17 to 22... the term sons of men here has a negative connotation that is why Solomon is comparing them unto beasts. Hope this helps. |

I don't think I've ever heard such a question as far as "levels" in Christianity. However if we were to look at it as "stages of growth" I would say that I see 4 distinct stages. 1. 1Pt.2:2 - Newborn babe 2. 1Jn.2:12 - Children 3. 1Jn.2:13 - Young Men or Women 4. 1Jn.2:13 - Fathers or Mothers In Ephesians, Paul is letting us know that there is a vocation (a calling) that the people of God are to adhere to. As to what I see, the 4th chapter would summarize rather well the stages and the calling. Eph. 4:1-2 ...walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 4:2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love. These things cannot be done with our own understanding and strength, they MUST BE LEARNED. That is why Jesus came to give us that GIFT in verse 7 (singular - meaning the baptism of the Holy Spirit i.e the promise Acts 2:33) Then in verse 8 ...When he ascended up on high, he led captivity (we were at one point held prisoners bound to this world as in Gal. 4:3 ... were in bondage under the elements of the world, which brought death) captive (1Cor.7:22-23), and gave gifts (PLURAL)unto men. These gifts are respected offices also in the plural given unto us - verse 11. These offices exist for THE PERFECTING/EQUIPPING of the saints... until we arrive at the full stature or completeness of Christ (i.e. Father/Mother stage). In other words, it is a process. A process that we all must reach... Hope that helps. |
