1 | What's this about the Rapture? | Rev 4:1 | phruubeljiie | 79557 | ||
A lot of people believe that this alludes to the Rapture theory, but I've been reading a lot of the Prophets' work (Isaiah, Daniel, Ezekiel and Revelations) and I see nothing saying that God's church will be sent up to Heaven before the Tribulation. Can someone please site and clarify? Also, why a WAR trumpet? | ||||||

3 | Is salvation revocable? | Rom 8:1 | phruubeljiie | 77579 | ||
I don't really understand this whole concept myself. Let's say someone is saved, then goes through a time of doubt (Job, for example). Are they still saved? Also, what about the Catholics, who believe that salvation comes from baptism and confirmation? | ||||||
4 | measure day\night no sun or stars | Gen 1:3 | phruubeljiie | 72567 | ||
Easy enough, light is created by photons and radioactive hydrogen burning. Now, these hydrogen atoms that God spilled across the sky eventually became attracted to each other through gravity and, over millions of years (remember a day is like a thousand years to God:) ) condensed to form stars. Secondly, even gases tend to be attracted to each other through gravity, so while God rotated the earth eventually the side of the earth that the Middle East rests on faced away from the hydrogen atoms, thus creating night. A meter will always equal a meter, no matter if you have a meterstick to measure it or not. Incidentally, remind your friend of this. "Thou shall not challenge the Lord thy God." Matthew, 4:7 Love in Christ, and may you win this unbeliever to the Lord (they sound smart), Phruubeljiie |

5 | Chronology of Creation | Gen 1:3 | phruubeljiie | 72565 | ||
I doubt it. By the time that E(equals)mc, then I'll bet that Christ has come to establish his eternal kingdom. Didn't he say that some of us will live to see the day that he comes back for us? Secondly, I'm not sure but I think the equation relates to the energy of an object being equal to its mass multiplied the square of its velocity, so I doubt it. We already know that the energy holding this world together is running out (entropy, aka the Tribulation, is coming) so this is no news to anyone. Love in Christ, Phruubeljiie |

6 | Chronology of Creation | Gen 1:3 | phruubeljiie | 72564 | ||
Again, science- which is trying to disprove that there is a god, let alone that Yahweh is Supreme King of all creation- proves that creation is reality. The photons, light as they are, are attracted to each other via gravity and eventually form the luminaries. Another victory for God- as if it could turn out any other way! Love in Christ, Phruubeljiie |

7 | Chronology of Creation | Gen 1:3 | phruubeljiie | 72563 | ||
Not nessecarily atheist materialists. I just (five seconds ago) visited a site that talks about "dark matter", or the 99 percent of the universe that is not understood by scientists. Here's the first paragraph of that site, which was applauded by Nasa: "At the moment, scientists don't know what makes up 99 percent of the Universe. This, needless to say, is a rather embarrassing situation. Although much of what is visible in the Universe is becoming comprehensible, with great recent strides in understanding star formation, galactic structure, and spectacular events such as supernovae, it would appear that there is another component of the universe - possibly making up most of its mass - which we cannot see, and we do not understand." It's an admission that there is something greater than humans out there, so it's a step- admittedly a small step, but a step- towards saving these people. |

8 | PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS PASSAGE | Rom 8:28 | phruubeljiie | 72561 | ||
It means, in short, that there is no such thing as destiny or chance. Everything that was, is, and will be is a part of God's eternal plan in which everything that can go right, will. Anything that you may see as a disaster is what's best for you to bring you closer to God. | ||||||

11 | come out | 1 Cor 1:13 | phruubeljiie | 70533 | ||
Sorry for not supplying this before, Rextar, and for not answering in a while- internet's been down at my place for the past week or so. Broadband's more hassle than it's worth. Anyways, I quoted 1 Corinthians 1:10, "I urge you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree in what you say, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and in the same purpose." | ||||||
12 | come out | 1 Cor 1:13 | phruubeljiie | 69679 | ||
Absolutely not! Didn't Saint Paul say, "Let there be no division among you"? One of my best friends is Hindu, and many of them are Islamic, Jewish, Hindu, and one Buddhist. Christ sent you here and gave you His love and His message not so you could parrot it back to people who already know it but so you could spread the word to people who don't, or people who don't understand it. If you have a very good friend who isn't Christian, don't you want to give them a chance to get to know the guy who died for them? I think your verse means that you shouldn't act like those who believe there is no God, no Heaven, no Hell, etc. Be seperate spiritually, not physically. If you learn to alienate people on Earth, you don't want to risk that transferring to Heaven. | ||||||
13 | WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THE VERSE ? | John 14:1 | phruubeljiie | 69675 | ||
This is spoken directly to those who believe Jesus was a great teacher/mentor, or a great prophet, but do not believe he was God. It is also spoken to those who believe that Jesus never existed, or the Christmas-and-Easter Christians who think the Bible is full of morality stories but are hesitant to FROG (Fully Rely On God). It's spoken to us when we're alone and afraid and faced with the difficult choice to do God's will or to do our will or to do the will of someone trying to demand and control us, and it's God telling us that he loves us, always has, and always will. | ||||||
14 | god tell happen to egypt? | Acts 2:17 | phruubeljiie | 69674 | ||
Remember that in the past as well as now, some people hold special significance to dreams- almost as if they were prophetic, or a direct link to God through the subconscious. Bear with me, I know I'm sounding like a televangelist but I do have a point. See Genesis 41:25-32. God's gift in dream to Pharoah was this prediction: seven years of bounty, and that bounty would slowly be consumed by seven years of famine. After the fourteen years, the after-effects would be those of famine, not of bounty, so the sick ears of corn and the sick cows were left, but no sign of the healthy corn or cows. | ||||||
15 | why butler remembered joseph? | Luke 23:42 | phruubeljiie | 69672 | ||
Logically, the butler was fearing for his life. As far as the Egyptians were concerned, you lived life to its fullest, and then you died, and when you died you either became the Jewish equivalent to a seraphim or your soul was eaten by this terrifying monster called Ammit (or Ahmit). The butler knew he wasn't pristine, so he was fearing for his life- not to mention whether he had a family to go home to, or others who loved and depended on him. Joseph gave that butler hope when the butler had no hope, and Joseph also gave the baker a chance to get right with God before he was brought before the Old Testemant equivalent of a firing squad. Frankly, I think the question is why the butler didn't remember Joseph and praise him to Pharoah immediately. | ||||||
16 | joseph tell meaning of dreams? | Gen 41:38 | phruubeljiie | 69670 | ||
Joseph could tell the meaning of dreams because he was divinely inspired to know the meaning of Pharoah's dreams. In order for God to protect Joseph's family from the coming famine, he had to establish Joseph in a position of power, of which there are few in a land full of nomads. Best you can get in a relatively nomadic Israel is caravan leader, with relatively no ability to stockpile food. So, God 'borrowed' Pharoah's resources to protect his people. This was Joseph's destiny as decreed by God and was not achieved by Joseph's working for it. He was chosen, as specified in the verse- chosen to stand in the spirit of God. | ||||||

Hold it! How is people not giving money to help someone seriously disadvantaged doing what's best for the child? That's not counting the psychological problems that come along with adoption in general. |

URGENT! Examples of humans not nursing weak: Abortion. An unborn child is about as weak as it gets, and still people try to pass laws making it okay to create an infanticide holocaust. Euthanasia. If someone decides to give up on life, in some states doctors are legally allowed to give lethal injections. Giving children up to adoption. If a child is born with cerebral palsy or a birth defect, it may end up on the list of children to adopt. If not, the parents may have a hard time finding enough money to pay for medications this child needs to stay alive. Glorifying suicide. Stopping life support. The next day, a cure for whatever this person's affliction is may be invented, and when you pull the respirator away you're literally committing murder. Examples of animals nursing weak: Elephants. If an elephant is wounded, the entire herd stays to protect the wounded one. In fact, if you lead an elephant to the skeleton of an elephant it has known (a parent, sibling or child) then the living elephant will carress the bones, almost mournfully. Baboons. Wonder why baboons pick the flies out of each others' fur? Wolves. Wolves always fight as a pack, bringing back meat for their pups instead of forcing the cubs to hunt. Along that line, birds. Is this some 'Natural instinct'? |

20 | Woman weaker partner | Gen 1:27 | phruubeljiie | 65972 | ||
Dear Edna, Where does it mention woman as weaker sex? I have seen female athletes beat male ones in Olympic finals, and I have seen women as doctors and lawyers and senators... Mother Teresa does not appear spiritually weak, and nor do the 50 percent of the saints that are female, and neither do Mary or Rachel or Deborah the prophetess... If anything I am guessing physically, since the male center of gravity is at the shoulder, thus providing more upper body strength, and the female center of gravity is at the hips to aid in childbirth. It is a lot harder to deliver a child than to lift a log or brick. |
