1 | How did Noah know about clean animals? | Genesis | Inerrant Word | 2972 | ||
Ask yourself this question ... did Noah actually gather the animals himself, or did God send the animals to Noah? In all likelihood, the latter occured. If so, God gathered the requisite number of animals (clean and unclean) Himself and presented them to Noah. Upon counting seven animals of a kind, Noah then knew they were "clean" (albeit, after the fact). | ||||||
2 | The inevitable BUT... | 1 John 1:9 | Inerrant Word | 2968 | ||
I believe that there are two levels of forgiveness. (1) The LEGAL act of forgiveness that was accomplished by the shed blood of Jesus Christ and applied to our spirits upon salvation. (2) The INTIMATE act of forgiveness that restores our communion with God. I'm sure we would agree that justification indeed permanent and that we "wear" Christ's righteousness. But you are asking why would we need to be "cleansed from all unrighteousness" ... This question begs the answer that there are two different aspects to forgiveness. One involves justification and the other involves sanctification. | ||||||
3 | Did James (author) know as much as Paul? | James | Inerrant Word | 2964 | ||
They are equally inspired. Your question seems to be based around the usage of the word "faith" in the Pauline epistles and the book of James. I truly believe both "faith alone" (Paul) and "faith without works is dead" (James) are complimentary. True "faith" is ACTIVE and requires a certain measure of trust (not simple intellectual assent like demons have). In the same manner, faith without works (which are a byproduct of a faith enacted) is dead, i.e., a false faith. When Paul speaks of works, he is talking of works of righteousness meant to GAIN salvation. When James speaks of works, he is talking of deeds RESULTING from salvation and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. | ||||||
4 | Study guide on Rev. | Bible general Archive 1 | Inerrant Word | 2962 | ||
An online, dynamic commentary hosted by The Sign Ministries can be found at www.revelationcommentary.org. (Only a few introductory sections and Chapter 1 are available at the moment, but more is to come.) Another great commentary, entitled "Revelation -- Four Views -- A Parallel Commentary" (ed. Steve Gregg), shows the four major views (historicism, preterism, futurism, and spiritualism) in parallel. Great resource. | ||||||
5 | Does God hear a sinner's prayer? | Prov 15:29 | Inerrant Word | 2820 | ||
Proverbs 15:29 implies that God chooses not to hear the prayers of the unsaved, or more correctly, those who are not regenerated/born again (coming from the Calvinist perspective). Those whose spirits are made new and now have the eyes to see the things of God (cf. Romans 8:6-8) will have their prayers for salvation heard and answered in the affirmative. | ||||||
6 | Can one who commits suicide be saved? | Ex 20:13 | Inerrant Word | 2818 | ||
The answer is, "Yes, one who is saved will not be condemned to hell if he/she commits suicide." Romans 8:38-39 should convince you of that. :) | ||||||
