1 | Whats being compared in John 3:14-16? | John 3:16 | THE COT | 107977 | ||
in verse 14 of john 3, jesus gives a direct example, "AS moses lifted up the serphant in the wilderness" all were bitten , I understand this in jesus's comparison to mean sin, and whoever looked to the serphant would be cured (or justified , forgiven in the case in the cross). my question is, Is it a valid interpretation to say that all thoes men were poisined, and all sinned in 3:16, then if the serphant was for all those men, can I say that the cross is for the whole world to look in faith at, so they can be cured from sin as well? I ask this because Jesus seams to be making a direct, signifigant description and comparison of what happened with moses, to the big picture in John 3:16. |

2 | WHAT IS JAMES 2 REALY ABOUT? | Rom 3:28 | THE COT | 107980 | ||
hi, I was wondering about james 2, is it possable that this chapter from verse 10 to the end is a reference to a faith that produces works which justifies?( gets you into heaven). I am not so sure it is a correct inturpretation for the following reasons... 1 james calles the people "bretherin" many times in this book, twice in this chapter, implying thier salvation. there appears to be no doubts. 2 there is no encouragement to receive christ, no advice to rent and have a new saving faith. what I am thinking is thatsince they are being judged acordingto the law of liberty, (the fact that they are under grace), this is a reference to the judgement of beleivers for rewards. in this judgement, God will be merciless. the mans faith is "dead" IE condemmed, (I get this from the basis of the use of this word in other verses, like the wadges of sin is death)because that is the only work he has to show for his life is that he trusted christ(faith is the one work a sinful man can do to receive salvation, john 6:29, but seaming this judgement is for rewards and not for salvation, he escapes, because of his faith. My interpretation of this verse is that faith with no works is condemed at the judgement of the beleiver. (james 2:12), and (1 cor 3:11-15) |
