1 | FRUIT OR FRUITS | Gal 5:22 | RJJ | 117145 | ||
Gal ch5 verses22/23 A Pastor I was listening to raised an interesting point regarding this verse, regarding the fruit of the Spirit. Is there, as taught, seven fruits of the Spirit or, is there only one fruit as in the Scriptures, he went on to say that it was as if the one fruit had seven flavours, has anyone any views, for or against? Later the question was raised, when do we receive the fruit/fruits, when we are born, or when we receive salvation, or when we receive the Holy Spirit. I would like to ask for your comments and scriptural evidence that supports or denies these views. SALOME, RJJ. |

2 | Manifestation or Vision? | John 1:32 | RJJ | 114549 | ||
Greetings evertone, With reference to my post#113450, was this a vision or a manifestation? For who's benefit was it for John or Jesus, if John, why was doubt shown, by John, later, if Jesus, why? would Jesus need encouragement or confermation? The gospel writers seem vague as to the answeres. SHALOM,RJJ |

3 | Who was the witness? | John 1:32 | RJJ | 113450 | ||
Greetings every one. There seems that the old arguments never go away, so instead of adding to the fires of debate, may I ask, what to some would say, is a simple question, "at the baptism of our Lord,who heard the voice of God, and saw the Holy Spirit descending?" SHALOM,RJJ |

4 | Can you help? | 1 Thess 5:23 | RJJ | 102203 | ||
Can anyone explain this in simple terminology suitable for young teenagers? Is it, Body-Soul-Spirit or Body-Mind-Sprit or are the Spirit-Soul-Mind, one and the same? Please support your answer with Scriptural evidence not opinions. |

5 | Double Dutch? | Bible general Archive 2 | RJJ | 100576 | ||
This is a re-post in the hope that it stays long enough for it to be READ!! Greetings everyone, there seems to be a spirit of discord not harmony in the camp, can we stop bickering over "words" and show the LOVE we should have one for another. We may not agree with one another but can we stop and pray before posting, read over our posts and see where the LOVE is missing/ Now a question to get you thinking? "a conceptual and fanciful personification of the unknown causes of our misfortunes" Do we know what the world is talking about, is the world aware of what they are talking about? Is the language used today hiding the truth or stating the truth, how do we answer? What does Holy Scripture say on the subject? SHALOM RJJ. |

7 | EUREKA!! I have found it! | 2 Sam 12:23 | RJJ | 99241 | ||
Greetings to you all in the name of Jesus. I asked a question (post 98289) regarding the Protestants answer to the question to where do young children/babies go when they die. The response was very good and I would like to thank you all for your posts; The conclusion I have reached is that young children go to HEAVEN and not hell or the place known as limbo/place of happiness. The Westminster Confession of Faith would be the theologians answer. To those who showed that if King David said that he would see his son after death then as David went to Abraham's bosom/Paradi when he died then, as the word of God does not lie, then for David to see his son then his son would be also there. The matter of baptism as a requirement for entrance to heaven is answered when Jesus on the cross, this day you will be with me in Paradise, to the man on the cross beside Him. I can take no credit for these observations, credit is to the writers of the posts. At the begging of my quest I was informed that there where no scriptures on this topic so I must thank the only person that showed me that there is scripture that deals with, and supports my conclusion, where young children/babies go at the time of death. Thanks DAIRYLEADER5, (post 98624), the scripture is Romans Ch.9. v11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;) KJV I hope that you who are of the Protestant persuasion agree with my conclusions and, if not, please let me know. SHALOM RJJ. |

8 | IS there any answers out there? | NT general Archive 1 | RJJ | 98289 | ||
Greetings everyone, I have just done a word search and only found 11 posts containing this word. It seems that no one is bothered by it, it's a doctrine that is as old as time and is as relevant as tomorrow. In times past it was of great importance but now in the "civilised" age do we "Protestants" have an answer or are we content/complacent? What is he on about? I was asked a simple enough question, " when a child dies, in the age of innocence, where does the soul go and how can the soul return to Heaven if sin is not allowed into the presence of Holy God? The word I was researching was," Limbo" the Catholic doctrine that is their answer, what is ours? Please do not waste time in telling me the rights and wrongs of this doctrine, or resurrect the old argument between scriptural and traditional, just give me an answer, or your understanding of this question. Thank you all and may the Holy Spirit inspire us. SHALOM RJJ. |

9 | God and the Suffering Saint. Pt 2 | Matt 11:29 | RJJ | 95973 | ||
Let us learn his TRUTH! As one who knows suffering at first hand, I found this a positive help while awaiting for the time of my healing - God also works his will through human suffering. Sometimes there is a correlation between sin and suffering (Psalm 55:19; 119:75), sometimes not (Luke 13:1-5; John 9:1-3), but in all cases God is able to use suffering to discipline (Deut 8:5), correct (Job 5:17), instruct (Isa 26:8-9), teach (Psalm 119:67,71), draw us to himself (Isa 26:16; Hosea 5:14-15), refine (Isa 48:10), and encourage us (Heb 12:4-11). In all of our afflictions God comforts and sustains us (Isa 66:13; Lam 3:19-28; 2 Cor 1:3-7) so that we will not be crushed beyond measure. Nothing in all creation can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord (Rom 8:37-39). By Walter A. Elwell. May the peace of God be our experience. I submit this post to my fellow believers in the hope that they will use it as a platform to expound the doctrines it contains through Scripture. SHALOM, RJJ |

11 | A FALSE TEACHING? Yes / No | Matt 8:5 | RJJ | 93133 | ||
A question for the false teachers of the," health and wealth doctrine", where in the scriptures is it written that you have to have a great amount of faith to receive or to believe in the healing power of GOD? (for reference see #90497) Our Lord Jesus tells us in Holy Scripture that even an amount the size of a mustard seed can move mountains, surely its not the amount of faith you have but WHO you have faith IN i.e. JESUS. P.S. If YOU are in agreement with me then please do NOT ADD NOTES OR ANSWER THIS QUESTION and we will see how long it stays unswered. |

13 | WHERE IS YOUR COMPASSION? | Matt 16:6 | RJJ | 90497 | ||
Sir, You state that you base your faith on being well, do you lose your faith when sickness comes? Or have you found the cure for the common cold, or are you one who states all people crippled, deseased ect.that they are in this condition because of their lack of faith? Sir you say that you will explain yourself if asked well I am asking, indeed I demand, as one who knows the healing power of the Holy Spirit and still sitting here in my wheel chair, SAVED LOVED, BLESSED AND BOUND FOR AN ETERNITY WITH MY LORD, that you explain or retract your statement.

14 | Where was Paradise? | Luke 23:43 | RJJ | 90488 | ||
I have heard from the pulpit and I have read, even here in the archives, that this verse shows that immediately on His death JESUS returned to Heaven. Yet, in the light of scripture, JESUS descended to Hell(Hades) to release those in Paradise then locking the gates so that no one of His redeemed need ever to enter Hell(Hades) So where was PARADISE at the time of the death of our LORD and SAVIOUR, Heaven or Hell(Hades)?

15 | Please, a straight answer!!! | Is 53:5 | RJJ | 83038 | ||
Whilst looking at Scripture concerning "healing" I came to this verse, when read in context it would seem to refer to the "healing" of the separation between man and God. Yet I have heard that same portion of scripture used to support teaching regarding the healing of the human body. Is my reading of this scripture correct or incorrect, please support your answer.

16 | What do YOU think? | Is 53:5 | RJJ | 81814 | ||
Hello KdB, May I refer you back to my original question, it is not what I think that challenges the answer given but the wiser and more learned men than I. May I recommend Bible Gateway where, under study tools, there are commentaries from people like Matthew Henry and John Wesley, (about 14 at least), a good site. So, I ask my fellow Bible students, on balence in the light of this evidence, again I ask "what do YOU think?" I have my own view but as this is a forum and if answers are challenged, and the evidence for that challenge is presented to the forum then it is the members of the forum to enter into informed debate so that members can reach their own conclusion. Your humble servant, RJJ |
||||||
17 | What do YOU think? | Is 53:5 | RJJ | 81769 | ||
I know this question has been asked, but I believe that the answers given need to be challenged, in the light of the many commentaries that say that the answer given is incorrect. Could I ask "what do YOU understand it to mean?". God bless. |
