1 | What did Jesus mean by this | Mark 9:23 | Asis | 91648 | ||
The faith that we have comes from us. Then when we believe it comes from Jesus. What about Romans 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. [KJV] Do you think the faith that Jesus saw in those people whose infirmities he healed was faith given them by God? Peter call Jesus the Messiah and Jesus said that knowledge came from God not man. Couldn't God have given those who believed that Jesus was the Messiah the faith required to believe He could heal the diseases? Now that we believe God, when we hear the word faith comes and we appropriate it. We make part of us and call it my faith. Are we not also to be established in righteousness given us just because we believe God (Romans 3:21-22) Isaiah 54:14 In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee. [KJV] Jesus told us to have the "God kind of faith" Mark 11:22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. [KJV] Literally, "Have the faith of God." Such is possible or it would not be a command. Man was created with God's faith but doubt entered in at the fall (Genesis 3:1-7). Faith is restored in the new birth and if normally exercised and maintained it will grow to fullness and power (Romans 1:5,17; Romans 10:17; Galatians 2:20; Col. 1:23; Col. 2:6-7; 2 Thes. 1:3; 2 Peter 1:1-5). Dakes Annotated Bible Just something to think about. Asis |

(Romans 3:21-22) Isaiah 54:14 In "righteousness shalt thou be established": thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee. [KJV] "In Righteousness"...literally, "IN CHRIST" and to be 'established' connotes a 'prosess of becoming'. Jesus told us to have the "God kind of faith" Mark 11:22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. [KJV] *Bells going off here! Having faith IN God is not the same as having the faith OF God. We are to have the faith of Jesus, the MAN, who had the Mind of God and we are follow Him to learn how to live by the same faith He had....with the same mind He posessed! ------------------------------------------- Literally, "Have the faith of God." Such is possible or it would not be a command. Wrong! God IS FAITH. It it not something He has because He is what He has! We are command to have the faith of Jesus, the MAN. ----------------------------------- Man was created with God's faith but doubt entered in at the fall (Genesis 3:1-7). Faith is restored in the new birth and if normally exercised and maintained it will grow to fullness and power (Romans 1:5,17; Romans 10:17; Galatians 2:20; Col. 1:23; Col. 2:6-7; 2 Thes. 1:3; 2 Peter 1:1-5). Dakes Annotated Bible Just something to think about. That's Mr. Dakes take on it. I believe he and I agree on most what he says here. I say most and really mean all but would like just a little more clarification from him to be sure. I have his bible. Asis |

Dake's Bible-speculative and unorthodox Dake's Annotated Bible "This work contains a great deal that is speculative and unorthodox..." "Dake’s Annotated Reference Bible (Dake, 1961 [NT], 1963) KJV "Dake’s is the product of 43 years of study and is one of the few study Bibles that has more words in its helps than in the Bible. Most of Finis Jennings Dake’s materials are set in two columns that appear on each page beside the two columns of biblical text. His introduction claims 500,000 cross-references, 35,000 notes and comments, 8,000 outlines, and 2,000 illustrations. Many of these materials are lists of observations from the text, but much is interpretive, with emphasis on prophecy, healing, and the miraculous. "This work contains a great deal that is speculative and unorthodox, such as Dake’s belief in God’s "spirit body" with "bodily parts" that "goes from place to place" (pp. 96-97 [NT]), his strong teaching on racial segregation (e.g., pp. 148 [OT] and 159 [NT]), and his dogmatism on just about every subject he addresses. The Dake’s study Bible cannot be recommended to journal readers, charismatic or not." ************* From: "HOW TO CHOOSE A STUDY BIBLE by John R. Kohlenberger III" John R. Kohlenberger III is the author or co-editor of 25 biblical reference books including Words about the Word: A Guide to Choosing and Using Your Bible (Zondervan), All about Bibles (Oxford University Press), and The NIV Exhaustive Concordance (Zondervan).

And? Meaning what? I don't use Dake. I read him very little except for his statistics, maybe. Having said that doesn't mean I can't agree with Dake on some issues regardless of what Mr. Whatever his name is, says. My personal preference in a study Bible is the Thompson Chain. I happen to own four of them. I also use a Holman NASB, which I cherish along with Moffatt and Phillips none of which have commentary. |
