2 | Why did Joseph and Mary flee? | OT general | Jungleman | 50053 | ||
I have a few thoughts. 1) Micah 5:1-3 predicts the messiah coming from bethleham. Matthew 2 confirms that the chief priest also agree that the messiah would come from bethleham again referring to Micah 5. If GOD predicted it through the prophet Micah then who could stop him from fulfilling his prediction? 2) To help prove Jesus' earthly geneology, Joseph was from the line of David and the town of David(bethleham) was were he had to register for the census.(Luke 2) This also proves that GOD fulfilled his promise to David that one of his descendant would sit on the throne. ( 2 Samuel 7:13) see ya jungleman |

3 | Scriptures verses banning incest? | Leviticus | Jungleman | 50052 | ||
Read the entire chapter of Leviticus 18. This should answer your question. Also Titus 3:1-2 says that christians are subject to the laws of the ruler and authorities of the nations in which they live. I believe incest is illegal( not sure) which would also make it forbidden for christians | ||||||

6 | MIXED MARRIAGES ? | Bible general Archive 1 | Jungleman | 49505 | ||
Read Deut 7. GOD was serious that no one should defile Israels faith so he forbid them to marry anyone who did not worship him (which meant anyone who was not an Israelite). The purpose for this law was not the race of the other nations but the fact that they did not acknowledge GOD and the only one and true GOD. Today, modern Israel is anyone who is a saved christian so regarless of your race, as long as 2 christians 1 man and 1 woman want to get married, before GOD they are fine. It is inappropriate however for a christian to marry someone who is not a christian. (2 corinth 6:14) | ||||||
7 | why jonah tried to get rid of god | Jon 4:2 | Jungleman | 49503 | ||
II kings 19 vs 35-37 and Isaiah 37:37 and the surrounding scriptures allude to the fact that Nineveh was a city occupied by Israel's enemies. GOD was asking Jonah to go preach to his enemies. I have heard some say that Jonah was a nationalist who loved Israel so he could not imagine why GOD would ask him to do such a thing. Another thing I have heard is that Jonah was a racist. How could GOD allow some other nation, especially an enemy nation, hear the word of GOD and be forgiven. I have not done much research but these are some thoughts. see ya jungleman |

8 | is homosexuality a sin? | Rom 1:27 | Jungleman | 49498 | ||
Along with the story of SODOM and GOMORRAH (Gen 18 and 19) Romans 1:27 is an awesome scripture about homosexuality. As far as masterbation goes, I use Galations 5:19 - 21 as one of a few scriptures which condem impurity (ie porn, masturbation, revealing magazine covers in grocery store checkout lines, etc) I also use a few logic arguments. 1) If GOD considers for example lust is equal to adultery against GOD himself and lust is only looking, how much more would he condem a physical act such as masturbation. 2) The only form of pure sex I find in the bible is between a man and woman who are married. Any other form of sex is condemned ( homosexuality, beastiality, and sex with self -masturbation) |

9 | emission of semen in dreaming is sin? | Rom 5:1 | Jungleman | 49496 | ||
Deuteronomy 23:9-10 NIV " When you are encamped against your enemies, keep away from everything impure. (10) If one of your men is unclean because of a nocturnal emission, he is to go outside the camp and stay there. (11) But as evening approaches he is to wash himself, and at sunset he may return to the camp. " I have always thought this scripture was referring to emission of semen. Hebrews 4:12 says that the word of GOD will judge the thoughts of your heart. Romans 13:11-14 speaks about setting aside the deeds of darkness and end with an admonishment to not think about how to satisfy your sinful nature. The question of sin to me would be not that the emission of semen was sinful but What was the person dreaming about that led up to that event and would GOD consider those thoughts sinful like looking at a woman lustfully? see ya jungleman |

10 | where does it say you have a chosen mate | Rev 22:21 | Jungleman | 49493 | ||
I do not believe in the chosen mate train of thinking. GOD gives specific directions to husbands and wife throughout the bible (eph 5) but no were does it say that their is one single person for another single person. I believe every individual is capable of loving mulitple people but GOD encourages only one wife or husband so we must choose. I have friends in India who are christians and the culture there is that your spouse is chosen for you. What happens if your spouse dies, does that mean you can never re-marry? I also know however that my wife believes it is way more romantic to think that she is the only woman I could ever love on the entire face of this planet therefore if I want to be a happy and good husband, I will acknowledge that she is the only woman for me not because of GOD's decree but because of my choice to love no other person on earth more than her. see ya jungleman |
