1	Baptized by Holy Spirit?	Not Specified	JustinToner	239377
	Per Matthew 3:11, what does it mean to be baptized by the Holy Spirit? Background: I am studying the passage of Matthew 3:5-12 and asked myself the following question (in regards to Matt 3:11-12): "John states that Jesus will baptize with the Holy Spirit and fire, and then explains how Jesus will separate the saved from the unsaved. Is the baptism by the Holy Spirit for the saved, and the baptism by fire for the unsaved? If so, is the baptism by the Holy Spirit before or after a person dies?"
2	Kingdom of Heaven - what is it?	Not Specified	JustinToner	239415
	Matthew 3:2 and 4:17 both contain "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." (ESV) What does "... the kingdom of heaven is at hand" mean? Is that simply a statement that the Messiah has arrived on earth?

	How do I indicate the verse for my questions? When I look at the list of unanswered questions, mine says "Not Specified" but I do not see a field in which I can specify a verse while asking a question.
4	Proverbs 10:22	Not Specified	JustinToner	241272
	My ESV translation gives this for Proverbs 10:22: "The blessing of the Lord makes rich, and he adds no sorrow with it.[a]" For note a, it gives this: "Or and toil adds nothing to it" How did those two different translations come about? It seems to me the noted alternative indicates that working hard does add the riches of God's blessings.

	Thank you Doc. What about the word sorrow? Why say "...he adds no sorrow with it."?
9	Why is anatomy often in Proverbs?	Prov 16:1	JustinToner	241346

11	MAT. 18:8?	Matt 18:8	JustinToner	240458
	I agree with you Jalek. Another way of saying it: If anything tempts you to sin, and if you cannot consistently overcome that temptation, then do whatever you have to so that you do not have to face that temptation in the first place. For example, if you sin after seeing magazine covers on the news stand, then don't ever go to the news stand no matter what you may need/want from it.
