1 | CORN in AMERICA? | Amos 1:1 | dat | 130322 | ||
My husband said that there is a mistake in the bible concerning CORN. In Exodus Chapter 42 verse 5 it says, "And he slept and dreamed the second time; and behold, seven ears of corn came up upon one stalk, rank and good." My husband says that only America had corn at this particular time. Is he right? | ||||||
2 | No more priests? | Heb 7:11 | dat | 114008 | ||
I'm hoping someone can help me. Where in the bible (if at all) does it say that after Jesus (and after His death) that we will no longer need to have priests? I'm looking for something that states this very specifically. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! | ||||||

4 | Version vs Version - Again | Gen 6:1 | dat | 114003 | ||
Dear Sir Pent I was referring to Genesis 6. One of them says something like the sons of God married to daughters of men, etc. However, the other version says the Nephilim (angles) married the daughters of men and another version says they were giants. In my mind I mainly just look at other versions and come to my own conclusions (which are usually like most christians). I was just wondering how I would approach my husband since he says I HAVE to stick to that exact version. |

5 | Were humans a mistake? | Gen 6:6 | dat | 113972 | ||
Since God knows all things (past and present), why was he sorry that he created us and then brought the flood? He would have known what we were going to do. Or is this just so that we can see how much God loves us by giving us another chance? | ||||||
6 | Strict Observance of Bible Versions? | 2 Tim 3:16 | dat | 113944 | ||
I usually use the NIV version of the bible since it is easier to use. On some occassions I will look at the King James version to compare a passage. I have found some MAJOR word changes in some of the passages. My husband (Mormon) says that if I my church uses a particular version (mine uses the NIV) that I am to only use that version and if I disagree with it, that it proves that the Mormons are right when they say that they believe in the bible "as long as it is tranlated correctly". How can I answer him. I get tongue tied or just keep silent in order to avoid an argument. | ||||||

8 | Was Adam and Eve's fall a good thing? | Bible general Archive 2 | dat | 108956 | ||
I've been trying to explain some things to my mormon husband about the "fall" of Adam and Eve. I'm stuck on what to say to him due to his belief on this issue (which I don't even understand his explaination). He (the mormons) believe that Adam and Eve were doomed to fail because of God's commands to: 1. not eat of the tree of knowledge 2. to be fruitful and multiply He says that one can not be done without the other (which I don't understand). He believes that the fall was "good". I don't understand any of this and therefore can't make an argument/discussion for my explaination. Does anyone understand this, if so, please explain it to me. |

9 | Differences Between Protestant Groups | Acts 2:1 | dat | 108958 | ||
Does anyone have a short "outline" of the differences, if any, of the different protestant groups? Someone asked me what other protestant beliefs are and I really couldn't answer why I was in a particular protestant church. I only know what my church believes. I thought all protestants believed the same thing and it was just different from catholics. Does anyone have a brief overview of any main differences with the different protestant churchs? | ||||||
10 | Prayer Sabotaged? | James 1:6 | dat | 105082 | ||

11 | Charity or a Door Mat? | NT general Archive 1 | dat | 104833 | ||
How long should you help someone who doesn't want to help themselves? My friend has been helping a single woman and her children for the last 2 years. The woman has promised to go to church on several occasions, but changes her mind at the last minute after people show up on her doorstep. She lives in an outlying area and this is over a 45 minute drive. My friend (through the church) has paid for prescriptions, food, Christmas presents for the children, given her clothes for herself and the family, given her furniture, cash, etc., but this woman has never come to our church or let anyone talk to her about the gospel. Her children are out of control and threw things at my friend and swore at her. Half of us think this woman has no intention of changing or wanting to change and is just using us for her own selfish reasons and the other half think we should be charitable. I believe in being charitable, but I think this goes beyond that, especially after 2 years of this. This Christmas, we wanted to meet her and her family (so far only a few people have met her and only for a short time). Anyway, she only wants to get the presents for the kids and not meet anyone else. What do you think? | ||||||

13 | Hermaphrodites, how shall we act? | Bible general Archive 2 | dat | 104842 | ||
I just saw a question about predetermined sexual orientation. Personally, I think this is a choice and not that we were born that way, but I was wondering about hermaphrodites (spelling?). They are born with the sex organs of both male and female. Is it wrong that their parents decide to make them a particular gender? Is it wrong for us to judge them if we make them a woman and they end up being more masculine or vice versa? I saw a show about this once and felt sorry for the people in this situation. | ||||||

19 | Other topics taught besides salvation? | Bible general Archive 1 | dat | 87825 | ||
Dear Moran61 I guess my question was too general. The thing I was getting at is actually about whether or not certain denominations teach all different topics such as tolerance of sin vs hating the sin, but loving the sinner. I have posted past articles about myself - a born-again christian divorcing my husband over neglect and a few other things and then marring a Mormon (which I know was wrong and have asked God to forgive me). My brother and sister have cut me out of their lives. It has been 2 years now. They will only let me back into their lives if I divorce my current husband. However, I love him dearly and he has been going to bible study with me each week for the past year. They consider me a continuing "adulteress" since I sleep with my husband and didn't have a "good enough" reason to divorce my first husband. Neither of them is showing a Christian attitude. I thought you were supposed to hate the sin, but love the sinner. If anything, their attitude is putting my husband off of true Christianity. My siblings don't see it that way. I am trying to witness to my husband and I thought that they should try to do that also. I guess I'm venting a bit. I just don't understand how they can be this way. I swear they are doing this just to "punish" me. Is it time for me to just forget about them? I've been the only one trying to salvage our relationships. Any thoughts? dat |
