3161	The angel of the Lord is it really God?	Gen 32:24	kalos	202
	" . . . Traditional Christian interpretation has held that [the Angel of the Lord] was a preincarnate manifestation of Christ as God's Messenger-Servant. It may be, however, that, as the Lord's personal messenger who represented Him and bore His credentials, the angel could speak on behalf of (and so be identified with) the One who sent him . . . Whether this 'angel' was the second person of the Trinity remains therefore uncertain." (Zondervan NASB Study Bible, p. 26)
3162	Did God want us to have borders?	OT general	kalos	177
	In the Old Testament, under the Law, the Jews were to be separate from all other nations. But in the present Church Age, there is no distinction in God's eyes, no spiritual inequality before God. Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
3163	What is "First Fruits Rapture?	1 Thessalonians	kalos	174
	The phrase "first fruits rapture" does not appear anywhere in the Bible. Whenever someone mentions a phrase or a doctrine alleged to be in the Bible, ask that person to give you the book, chapter and verse where it is found. If you check 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, and related passages, you will find no mention of a first fruits rapture.
3164	Take Your Holy Spirit from me?	Ps 51:11	kalos	171
	"No believer of the present Church Age need ever pray, 'Take not thy Holy Spirit from me'; for Christ promised His own that the Spirit would 'abide with you forever' (Jn. 14:16; compare Eph. 4:30). But it is always proper for the Christian to pray that he may be conformed to the conditions essential to the full ministry of the Spirit." (note at Ps. 51:11, New Scofield Reference Bible, 1967, Oxford University Press) "In the O.T. economy, the Holy Spirit was particularly related to service, rather than salvation...Here David is asking God not to take away his service as the anointed king of Israel..." (p. 846, The Ryrie Study Bible, 1976, 1978, Moody Press)
3165	Who are "under the earth"?	Phil 2:10	kalos	167
	Demons and lost humanity in hell are those who are "under the earth." See 1 Peter 3:18-22.
3166	son of the gods	Dan 3:25	kalos	165
	Bear in mind that in this verse Nebuchadnezzar is the one speaking. "Nebuchadnezzar was speaking as a pagan polytheist and was content to conceive of the fourth figure as a lesser heavenly being (v.28) sent by the all-powerful God of the Israelites." (Zondervan NASB Study Bible, p. 1232) "The king seemed only to have known that the fourth person was a heavenly being. He called him a son of the gods (a pagan reference to one who appeared supernatural) and an 'Angel' (v. 28)..." (MacArthur Study Bible, p. 1232)
3167	allow the dead to bury their own dead	Matt 8:22	kalos	164
	"Let the spiritually dead bury the physically dead. The time of Jesus' ministry was short and demanded full attention and commitment. This statement stresses the radical demands of Jesus' discipleship, since Jews placed great importance on the duty of children to bury their parents." (Zondervan NASB Study Bible, p. 1379)
3168	land of Sinim - China?	Is 49:12	kalos	163
	"...Sinim [is] probably an ancient name for what is China." (MacArthur Study Bible, p. 1032) "Behold, these shall come from afar--and, behold, these from the north and from the west, and these from the land of Sinim (China)." (Isa. 49:12 The Amplified Bible)
3169	geneology of Jesus	Bible general Archive 1	kalos	161
	The geneaology of Jesus is found at Matthew 1:1-17 and Luke 3:31-34. See also Ruth 4:18-22 and 1 Chronicles 1:34, 2:1-15.
