NASB "GREEK TEXT: Consideration was given to the latest available manuscripts with a view to determining the best Greek text.

2 | the beast, who is it? | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 157455 | ||
What beast? Which beast are you asking about? Could you give the book, chapter and verse you are referring to? Or at least the book? In the King James Version (OT and NT) there are 163 verses that contain the word "beast." Grace to you, Kalos |

3 | doctrinally unsound? | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 157630 | ||
It would be helpful if, when you quote the Bible, you would provide the Scripture reference, i.e., tell us what book, chapter and verse you are quoting. I'm afraid I don't understand your question. Assuming "the following" in your question is a direct quote from the Bible, then are you asking "Is there anything doctrinally unsound in this passage of Scripture?" I don't get it. If there is something you're trying to tell us with your question, just come right out and say it, OK? Grace to you, Kalos |

6 | why would God not want u with a believer | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 158065 | ||
Could you give us a little more information in order to clarify your question? You ask: "do u think God would say no to a relationship with another believer"? That question is so vague and general that it's not clear what you're asking. As the question is worded, a No answer would imply that it is always OK for any two believers to get married, no matter what. This may not always be the case. Do you have a specific relationship in mind? Does it involve a great difference in age, a former spouse, someone who is divorced, someone who is a Christian but has major issues, someone who used to be a brother-in-law or sister-in-law, etc.? Grace to you, Kalos |

7 | ... | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 158210 | ||
Man's search for God Often the last thing humans desire is to find or be found by God. C. S. Lewis, once an agnostic, astutely observed that "amiable agnostics will talk cheerfully about 'man's search for God.' To me, as I then was, they might as well have talked about the mouse's search for the cat!" |

12 | cereal without the milk | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 159112 | ||
"I love to tell the story For those who know it best Seem hungering and thirsting To hear it like the rest" (From the hymn "I Love to Tell the Story" by A. Catherine Hankey and William G. Fischer) Bronx: Without the message of the cross, there would be no Christian life. There would be no Christians. Everything -- the entire Bible -- relates to Christ's blood shed on the cross. You are correct. The message of the cross is always important. Without it everything else would be meaningless. And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. 1 Cor 15:17 NIV It was necessary for Christ to die on the cross for our sins, be buried, and then rise again the third day. Without the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ our faith would be futile; we would still be in our sins. We need always to tell others the message of the cross and to think upon it ourselves, to remind ourselves of the great price Christ had to pay for our redemption. It is never appropriate to leave the cross alone. Preaching that is mostly about social issues and relationships is undesirable. Pastors had best declare the whole counsel of God, never forgetting the message of the cross. Without the cross, the rest would be like a bowl without the cereal or the milk. Thanks for your question. I hope this helps. Grace to you, Kalos |

13 | question on satan | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 159247 | ||
The Bible doesn't say God loves Satan. It does say that God hates all who do wrong (Psalm 5:5). Remember God is love but He is also just and holy. We are not instructed in the inspired Scriptures to love Satan. ____________________ "The Bible never says that God loves the sinner but hates the sin." ____________________ 'Jesus died on the cross to avert the wrath of God from sinners. Therefore, the only way to be "saved" from the wrath of God, is to trust in Christ. This is what it means to be saved. It means to be saved from God's wrath: "Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him, (Rom. 5:9). 'The gospel is not about a "nice" God who is begging people to come to Him because He loves the sinner but hates the sin. (The Bible never says that God loves the sinner but hates the sin.) 'On the contrary: "The boastful shall not stand before Thine eyes; Thou dost hate all who do iniquity," (Psalm 5:5). And, "There are six things which the Lord hates, yes, seven which are an abomination to Him: 17 Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, 18 A heart that devises wicked plans, feet that run rapidly to evil, 19 A false witness who utters lies, and one who spreads strife among brothers," (Prov. 6:16-19). 'Such biblical teaching is not in harmony with most popular Christian theology today because it doesn't present God as the "nice" God that is begging people to come to Him. Instead, the truth is that God is Holy and He will punish the sinner. But that isn't all of it. God is also love (1 John 4:8) which is why He sent His Son, to save us: “For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through Him," (John 3:17).' ____________________ CARM NEWSLETTER, October 30, 2003 To view past newsletters, please go to http://www.carm.org/newsletters_2003.htm |

14 | Did Michael Shiavo Commit Adultery? | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 159819 | ||
JuanMas: I couldn't help but notice that virtually ALL of your 28 posts are Questions, Answers and Notes about marriage and divorce. I wonder why all this emphasis on one subject. Is there something you are wanting to know about divorce? Or is there something about divorce that you want to tell us? This is no criticism of you. I'm just wondering what is the basis of your fascination with Scriptures pertaining to marriage, divorce, and adultery? Would you like to have more information on what the Bible teaches about marriage, divorce and adultery? Or were you hoping that the Scriptures could be interpreted to justify a course of action someone wants to take or has already taken? In short, I wonder what you're getting at with all your posts about the same subject, marriage and divorce. Again, I intend no criticism of you. Just trying to figure out what it is you want. Grace and peace, Kalos |

15 | did Judas repent | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 159928 | ||

Compare 2 Cor. 7:10" (MacArthur Study Bible, Word Publishing, 1997).

'(2) He made ineffectual struggles to escape, by attempting to return the reward to the Pharisees, and when they would not receive it, he cast it down at their feet and left it. (Matthew 27:5) But, (a) restitution of the silver did not undo the wrong; (b) it was restored in a wrong spirit, --a desire for relief rather than hatred of sin; (c) he confessed to the wrong party, or rather to those who should have been secondary, and who could not grand forgiveness; (d) "compunction is not conversion." '(3) The money was used to buy a burial-field for poor strangers. (Matthew 27:6-10) '(4) Judas himself, in his despair, went out and hanged himself, (Matthew 27:5) at Aceldama, on the southern slope of the valley of Hinnom, near Jerusalem, and in the act he fell down a precipice and was dashed into pieces. (Acts 1:18) "And he went to his own place." (Acts 1:25 ) "A guilty conscience must find neither hell or pardon." '(5) Judas’ repentance may be compared to that of Esau.

17 | Sons of God | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 159936 | ||
Gen 6:1-4 *sons of God.* The 'sons of God' may mean God's created, supernatural beings, who were no longer godly in character (6.3). Some commentators believe, however, that this expression refers to the 'godly line' of Seth and that 'daughters of humans' (v. 4 in the NRSV) refer to women from the line of Cain. Most likely the phrase refers to those descendants of Seth who trusted in the Lord but whose children intermarried with women descended from Cain. Those marriages were not with angels then, but between godly and ungodly human families. Angels neither marry nor are given in marriage (Mt 22:30), so that this verse hardly applies to them. ... *Nephilim* are strong, violent, tyrannous men of great wickedness. It may well be that the explanation of these verses has been lost to us." (NRSV Harper Study Bible, Harold Lindsell, Ph.D., D.D., Grand Rapids, Michigan: Zondervan, 1991) | ||||||

"Are the Sabbath laws binding on Christians today? " ____________________ "The New Testament never commands Christians to observe the Sabbath." ____________________ "We believe the Old Testament regulations governing Sabbath observances are ceremonial, not moral, aspects of the law. As such, they are no longer in force...Here are the reasons we hold this view. "In Colossians 2:16-17, Paul explicitly refers to the Sabbath as a shadow of Christ, which is no longer binding since the substance (Christ) has come. It is quite clear in those verses that the weekly Sabbath is in view. The phrase "a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day" refers to the annual, monthly, and weekly holy days of the Jewish calendar (cf. 1 Chronicles 23:31; 2 Chronicles 2:4; 31:3; Ezekiel 45:17; Hosea 2:11). If Paul were referring to special ceremonial dates of rest in that passage, why would he have used the word "Sabbath?" He had already mentioned the ceremonial dates when he spoke of festivals and new moons. "The Sabbath was the sign to Israel of the Mosaic Covenant (Exodus 31:16-17; Ezekiel 20:12; Nehemiah 9:14). Since we are now under the New Covenant (Hebrews 8), we are no longer required to observe the sign of the Mosaic Covenant. "The New Testament never commands Christians to observe the Sabbath. "In our only glimpse of an early church worship service in the New Testament, the church met on the first day of the week (Acts 20:7). "Nowhere in the Old Testament are the Gentile nations commanded to observe the Sabbath or condemned for failing to do so. That is certainly strange if Sabbath observance were meant to be an eternal moral principle. "There is no evidence in the Bible of anyone keeping the Sabbath before the time of Moses, nor are there any commands in the Bible to keep the Sabbath before the giving of the law at Mt. Sinai. "When the Apostles met at the Jerusalem council (Acts 15), they did not impose Sabbath keeping on the Gentile believers. "The apostle Paul warned the Gentiles about many different sins in his epistles, but breaking the Sabbath was never one of them. "In Galatians 4:10-11, Paul rebukes the Galatians for thinking God expected them to observe special days (including the Sabbath). "In Romans 14:5, Paul forbids those who observe the Sabbath (these were no doubt Jewish believers) to condemn those who do not (Gentile believers). (...) "Sunday has not replaced Saturday as the Sabbath. Rather the Lord's Day is a time when believers gather to commemorate His resurrection, which occurred on the first day of the week. Every day to the believer is one of Sabbath rest, since we have ceased from our spiritual labor and are resting in the salvation of the Lord (Hebrews 4:9-11). "So while we still follow the pattern of designating one day of the week a day for the Lord's people to gather in worship, we do not refer to this as "the Sabbath." (www.gty.org) |

The Sabbath in Acts 'Among the several references to the Sabbath in Acts (1:12; 13:14-44; 15:21; 17:2; 18:4; 20:7) there is little evidence to suggest that the earliest Christian communities deviated from the traditional Sabbath observed on the seventh day. The lone reference to a gathering "On the first day of the week" (20:7) most likely reflects an emerging Christian consensus that the first day was an appropriate day on which to meet for worship and celebrating the Lord's Supper.' ____________________ (http://bible.crosswalk.com/Dictionaries/ BakersEvangelicalDictionary/bed.cgi) |
