1 | Aussie, post modernism? | Bible general Archive 1 | Cyclist | 36438 | ||
Aussie, Praise be to God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ to Whom all power has be given in Heaven and on earth! I'm with EdB on this question "post"-after what? "modernism"-If you are asking about thinking in the current church here is my reply, and this is just my opinion, I do not see any problem with modern thinking with regard to technology, construction, transportation, and communication. With regards to conduct and attitude you need to search the scriptures. Phil 2:5 ....same attitude as Christ. 2 Tim 2:14 and 15 ....Be diligent to present yourselves approved to God. Rom 6:11 ....dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Jesus is Lord! Cyclist |

2 | Raven and John Reformed, Baptism? | Bible general Archive 1 | Cyclist | 36496 | ||
RAVEN and John Reformed, Good Day to you! I noticed that the question regarding speaking in tongues got into the subject of it being nessesary to be baptized in order to be saved. I have a question on this subject Reference Luke 23:32 through 43. (32)...Two others also, who were criminals,... (42)...Jesus, Remember me when You come in Your Kingdom. (43)..., Truly I say to you, today you shall be with Me in paradise. My question is, and not challenging you but would just like to know, was the criminal excused from baptism? If the criminal was from that region he would have heard of John the baptist wouldn't he? That may be an unfair question because we do not know where the criminal was from. I would welcome comments from anyone on the forum. Much Love in Christ, Cyclist |

4 | The Bethel Series? | Bible general Archive 1 | Cyclist | 70520 | ||
Forum Members, MERRY CHRISTMAS! Praise the Lord God Almighty for sending His Son Jesus Christ into the world to pay our sin debt! I just missed out on a bible study called "The Bethel Series". It is a 20 week bible study. There were only 8 participants plus the instructor. Ever heard of it? Ever participated in this study? What did you think of it? Let me know, I may attend the next time it is offered. Your brother in Christ Jesus, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

5 | BongGritty, Heb 11:4? | Gen 4:5 | Cyclist | 47874 | ||
BongoGritty, The Lord is my rock and my salvation! In Him will I put my trust! I will praise Him in song and with a lively heart because He has blessed me with both! I will praise the God of my salvation! I have been kept very busy during the week so forgive me for the delayed response. You write "Your answer is in Heb 11:4." Your answer was to the original question "Why was Cain's offering not acceptable?" I did not see the answer in this scripture. My opinion only, and please accept it as that, for I am far from an "expert", is that Cain was disobedient, in otherwords, He did not offer to the Lord that which was commanded. I interpret this, again my opinion only, as Cain either being to lazy to dress an animal for offering, or, that his offering was motivated by pride, you know, something like, "Look at what I have done with my own hands. I will offer this to the Lord because I produced it myself and am proud of it." Are there any other scpriptures that give an answer to the original question? As always, I would accept and appreciate answers from anyone else on the forum as well, whether it be scripture referenced or interpretion. In Christ Jesus our Lord, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

7 | Sacrificing his daughter? | Judges | Cyclist | 52188 | ||
Greetings Believers with me in God our Father who created all things in heaven and the earth and the seas and all that there is therein, and, in His Son Jesus Christ who gave Himself for the sins of the world, All praise and glory and honor be to God who loved us so much that He sent His only begotten Son to die in our place for our sins! I'm having difficulty finding a portion of scripure that records a man sacrificing his daughter to God. Some one had asked me about it and I cannot seem to find it. In addition, I may need some help in explaining this event so any comment you have would be helpful, I think it is in Deuteronomy. Any help? Thanks Your brother in the Lord Jesus, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

8 | Was it acceptable to the Lord? | Judges | Cyclist | 52195 | ||
2nd Samuel 22 and forum members, I will continually praise the Lord my God! He has been merciful to me and, through His Son, saved me from death! Praise you Lord my God! Is there any confirmation in scripture, or, do you, or anyone else in the forum, think (scripture refrences to support your position either way please) that this sacrifice was acceptable to the Lord? It appears that it was not required of the Lord, and, isn't it recorded in the old testament that God tells His people that they are not to sacrifice humans (anyone know where this is)? I'm having trouble explaining this. Thank you! Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually in my mouth! |

9 | Jephthah and the burnt offering? | Judges | Cyclist | 52617 | ||
Greetings Froum Members! I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever! I will sing in my heart with gladness to my God who saved me! I will sing and praise my God in my heart all day long, and, continually give thanks to Him for His Son Jesus Christ, who thought not of Himself but gave Himself as a sacrifice for the sins of the world! Blessed be the name of the Lord forever! I hope all is well with everyone! I thank God for this Forum! I have really grown since I became involved! Bless each one of you! This is a repost of a question that I asked before. I am having difficulty with Judges 11. In order to save space I will not post the entire chapter. It is the story of Jephthah who appears to have offered his daughter as a burnt offering to the Lord. I have a study bible at home. The commentary states that Jephthah could not have offered his daughter as a burnt offering because God forbids it in the book of Numbers. The commentary goes on to say that the daughter was not allowed to marry and that was the sacrifice, however, verse 39 (At the end of two months she returned to her father, who did to her according to the vow which he had made;...). This, to me, says that he did indeed offer up his daughter as he vowed. Any comments on this? I need to get back to someone who is growing and I'm having trouble explaining this. If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it? Always your brother in Christ, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

10 | Did David disobey? | 1 Kin 3:14 | Cyclist | 109215 | ||
Good day Forum Members! I will praise the name of the Lord with my whole heart! I will sing praises to the Lord in my heart and with my mouth the day long! I will praise the Lord for he is worthy of all praise! I will praise the Lord with joy and thanksgiving because His joy is my strength! Praise the name of the Lord forever! It's been quite some time since I've been able to share with you all. I must say that I have MISSED you! I have continued to pray, and will continue to pray for this forum. I've been spending time reading the Old Testament. I wanted to post a question so that I could get some input on this. In 1 Kings 3 the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream. In 1 Kings 3:14 the Lord says to Solomon "If you walk in My ways, keeping My statutes and commandments, as your father David walked, then I will prolong your days." In 2 Sam 11 we read the story of David's adultry with Bathsheba and his murdering of Uriah the Hitite. Ex 20:13 "You shall not murder. Ex 20:14 "You shall not commit adultery. David disobeyed two commandments here, yet, the Lord said to Solomon "If you walk in My ways, keeping My statutes and commandments, as your father David walked,......" Is it because David repented that he obeyed the commandments? or, Is it because David did not ever worship any other gods like the other kings of Israel, including Solomon, did? I look forward to reading your comments. Always your brother in Christ Jesus our Lord, Cyclist (David) I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

11 | Why seek healing for this flesh? | Ps 46:10 | Cyclist | 75310 | ||
Dear Forum Family, Blessed be the name of the Lord our God and His Son Jesus Christ forever more! Praise the Lord for His love and mercy and grace! Praise the Lord for He is good to His children! Praise the Lord for His patience with His children! Let everything that has breath praise the name of the Lord! Praise Him from the mountain tops! Praise Him from the valleys! praise Him! It's been quite a while since I've visited. Without going into any long details, I have been very busy! I have a question for those of you who are my elders and my brothers and my sisters on this forum (I pray that those of you whom I consider my elders or Brothers or Sisters know who you are.) Here it is. Even though this body I have been given is in great shape (I spend at least ten hours per week excercising it and the doctor tells me "I wish all of my patients were in as good of shape as your are, except for....."), there exists a cuouple of malfunctions. Sparing you all of the details, I was taken from my office to the emergency room on Wednesday morning. Woops! Got so caught up in all of that, I almost almost strayed away from posting my question! WHY SEEK HEALING FOR THIS BODY? Please, please don't get me wrong. I get annual physicals and that on my own, it is not required for my permenant illnesses. And, I do always go to my physician when having problems. When I read the holy word of the Lord my God I so desire to be with Him in His kingdom! Again, don't misunderstand me please, I haven't gone off my rocker, not yet anyway. Why seek healing for this flesh that will not inherit the kingdom of God? I know that the Lord our God has blessed us with some very good doctors, but, I'm having difficulty understanding the purpose. Honestly, it seems sometimes that the closer I am to death, the happier I am because I will be with the Lord forever. Again, I'm NOT CRAZY! Never the less, If here (on earth) is where His desire is for me, then here I am happy to be. Blessed be the Lord forever! I posted a couple of scriptures below. Please I pray you my friends, help me understand through the word of the Lord our God. I am thankful for each one of you! Bless you as you prayerfully consider your answer(s) to me. Your input is very important to me on this issue. Col 3:1 Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Phil 1:23 But I am hard-pressed from both directions, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, for that is very much better; I always pray for you my friends. Always your brother in Christ Jesus our Lord, David (Cyclist) I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

12 | Demons from over 1 yr ago? | Matt 8:16 | Cyclist | 60671 | ||
Hi forum! I praise the Lord my God for this forum family! I have really grown from the postings of brothers, sisters, and elders! Praise you Father for the forum! This is a reposting of a questioned asked by Hank on 5/3/01. It looks like the question never really got answered. The subject was "Do demons still exist?" Here is the question: "Brent, the question may seem odd; however, there is a reason for my asking it in the way I did. The Scriptures do speak to the issue raised, clearly and unequivocally, but no one has cited them yet. The clue lies in the defining of demons. --Hank" Are there scriptures existing that have not been cited/posted? What are they? Your brother in Christ Jesus our Lord and Savior, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

13 | Do all little ones believe? | Matt 18:6 | Cyclist | 66392 | ||
Dear forum members, I will give thanks to the Lord daily for His wonderful love and mercy and grace! I will give thanks to the Lord early in the morning for the day He has made! I will say that this is the day that the Lord has made and rejoice! Is Jesus our Lord saying in verse 6 that all little ones believe in Him? Matt 18:1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and said, "Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?" Matt 18:2 And He called a child to Himself and set him before them, Matt 18:3 and said, "Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. Matt 18:4 "Whoever then humbles himself as this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Matt 18:5 "And whoever receives one such child in My name receives Me; Matt 18:6 but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea. Have a blessed day in the Lord! Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

14 | One more time, "fallen away"? | Mark 4:16 | Cyclist | 38529 | ||
Hello members! Hope all is well! It's great to be saved! All glory be to God, and praise to His Son Jesus who died for the sins of the world! I know that there has been a lot of discussion on the forum regarding the loss of salvation and falling away. I have been giving this a lot of thought lately and would like to ask another question about this. What exactly is "fallen away"? and, Was Paul saying in Heb 6:6 that we could not return to Jesus? I would like to see some more discussion around this. When David and Moses sinned had they fallen away? When Peter denied Jesus and when he had to be corrected by Paul was he fallen away? or, Is satan, his demons, and his followers the description of fallen away? In one of my previous posts, in answer to a question regarding Heb 6:6, I responded that no person, not even a christian, can win some one who has fallen away back to repentance but the fallen away person could only be brought back in by the working of the Holy Spirit. Was this not a good interpretation of this verse? What about the church in Rev 2:5 below, is this the description of fallen away or was Paul reffering to something different in Heb 6:6? Rev 2:4 'But I have this against you, that you have left your first love. Rev 2:5 'Therefore remember from where you have fallen, and repent and do the deeds you did at first; or else I am coming to you and will remove your lampstand out of its place--unless you repent. What about Luke 9:51-56? Luke 9:55 But He turned and rebuked them, [and said, "You do not know what kind of spirit you are of; Luke 9:56 for the Son of Man did not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them."] And they went on to another village. This is not an attempt to draw any one into debate. I do, however, appreciate the postings from you members of the forum and would like to ask you to comment just this one more time on the subject of fallen away. Always your brother in Christ, Cyclist PS I'm sorry to read that Zach left the forum. GOD BLESS YOU Zach! |

15 | Memories? | Luke 9:62 | Cyclist | 110257 | ||
Hi Forum Family! Blessed be the Lord our God! He is worhthy of all praise and glory and honor! Blessed be the one who created all things in heaven and on earth and in the seas and all that there is therein, things not made by men's hands, but by the Lord! Praise be to the Lord! Wanted to post a question about Luke 9:62 But Jesus said to him, "No one, after putting his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God." I conducted a search on the forum and found that there was a little discussion on this verse but I had a few more questions about it. So, please bear with me. Question 1) How does this particular verse relate to memories, both bad (those in which we learned from) and good (those which bring joy to our hearts)? Question 2) Paul writes: Phil 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things. There are many memories that I have which include all of the above, so, Isn't it good to dwell on such things? Here is the passage in context: Luke 9:59 And He said to another, "Follow Me." But he said, "Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father." Luke 9:60 But He said to him, "Allow the dead to bury their own dead; but as for you, go and proclaim everywhere the kingdom of God." Luke 9:61 Another also said, "I will follow You, Lord; but first permit me to say good-bye to those at home." Luke 9:62 But Jesus said to him, "No one, after putting his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God." Always your brother in prayer and in praise, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at al times! His prasie shall continually be in my mouth! |

17 | Whole or Well? | Luke 17:19 | Cyclist | 35156 | ||
GOOD DAY FORUM! I hope all is well with everyone! Luke 17:12-19 speaks of 10 lepers calling to Jesus for healing and only one of them, a foreigner, returning to Thank him. I'm having difficulty with one word in verse 19. Spending most all of my Christian life in the Old King James version of the Bible, which reads this way "And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee WHOLE." I had always thought maybe, (since leprosy can result in severe disfigurment, especially of the feet, hands, and face), that this one that returned to Jesus to thank him was made whole again. Meaning that any disfigurment was restored to it's original shape. I had thought that the others were healed but maybe not made whole. In the NASB and the New King James version the last word in verse 19 is WELL. I looked up the definitions of both words and the meaning of both of them are different: WHOLE meaning complete, WELL meaning in good health. Any thoughts, facts, and/or Spiritual guidance on this? THANK YOU Brothers and Sisters. Cyclist |

18 | Where was Lazarus for 4 days? | John 11:11 | Cyclist | 57604 | ||
All praise and glory and honor be to God our Father! And to Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son, who thought not of Himself, but gave His own life for the sins of the world! Thank you Jesus for dying for my sins when I did not deserve it. Any comments on where Lazarus spent these four days? In Abraham's bosom? Scripture references with your answers if you find any please. Thank you. John 11:1 - 44 John 11:17 So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days. Your brother in Christ, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

19 | Every single person? | John 12:32 | Cyclist | 72655 | ||
Blessed be the name of the Lord our God who created the heavens and the earth and the seas and all that there is therein! Blessed be the name of the Lord our God who created all things seen and unseen! All things are created by Him, not by men's hands, but, by God our Father who is to be glorified forever! And blessed be the name of the Lord Jesus Christ who thought not of Himself but gave His very own life for our sins! Sorry forum family, I got a little carried away up there, but, I just cannot contain it! How would you like to be next to me in church!? Please see John 12:32 NASB "And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to Myself." AMPLIFIED And I, if and when I am lifted up from the earth [on the cross], will draw and attract all men [Gentiles as well as Jews] to Myself. "will draw all men to Myself" Is the Lord Jesus speaking of every single person that ever did or ever will walk the face of the earth? Is He speaking of all who those who walk the earth after His death on the cross? or, Since this was a mised crowd of Jews and Greeks He was speaking to, is He just simply letting both Jews and Greek know that He will go beyond the Jews to chose His elect? Your brother in Christ David (Decided to remove the Cyclist mask) I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |
