1 | Does God create some people evil from bi | Genesis | wordoer | 225834 | ||
Ps 58:3 The wicked are estranged from the womb; These who speak lies go astray from birth. Is 54:16 "Behold, I Myself have created the smith who blows the fire of coals And brings out a weapon for its work; And I have created the destroyer to ruin. Also, Jer 18. Rom 9:22 What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction? He has made some evil, and appointed them to destruction, and then 2 Pet Chapter 2. Me thinks you read correctly. wordoer |

2 | Trinity or Oneness? | Bible general Archive 4 | wordoer | 225396 | ||
These verses make an idea of a trinity to be very restrictive, not allowing others to be one as Jesus requested of His Father. John 17:11 "I am no longer in the world; and yet they themselves are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name which You have given Me, that they may be one even as We are. 151 John 17:22 "The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; One. wordoer |

3 | is this gentiles? | 1 Pet 2:9 | wordoer | 225068 | ||
The word "gentile", simply means, "nations". It helps to understand that God divored Israel, but He did not divorce Judah. Jer 3:8 "And I saw that for all the adulteries of faithless Israel, I had sent her away and given her a writ of divorce, yet her treacherous sister Judah did not fear; but she went and was a harlot also. He divorced and sent Israel out of their nation, they were lost in time through changes in their names down through history, and became a multitude of nations ( Just as God had promised Abraham in Gen. 17), they passed through the Caucaus Mountains into the Southern part of Russia, before migrating west. But, before they had gotten that far they were in Pontias, Galatia, Capadocia, and Bethania. That is where Peter, James, and others were writing to those Chosen People check out the first verses of those letters.( they (Israel) had been rejected, read Hosea 1:4, and then verse 10, it should start to become clear!). Wow, There it is in a nut shell, so much more to tell, not enough room, or time. This is the thing Jesus spoke of - I have sheep that are not of this flock, therefore the jews counceled among themselves, He is not intending to go among the gentiles and teach them also, is he? He came to seek and save that which was lost, What was lost? Israel. wordoer |

4 | Lying justified? | Josh 2:5 | wordoer | 225067 | ||
Hello Just Read Mark, I think of the Hebrew midwives. They were directed to kill the male children of the Israelites by the King. Ex 1:15 Then the king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, one of whom was named Shiphrah and the other was named Puah; Ex 1:16 and he said, "When you are helping the Hebrew women to give birth and see them upon the birthstool, if it is a son, then you shall put him to death; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live." 2 Ex 1:17 But the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt had commanded them, but let the boys live. 3 Ex 1:18 So the king of Egypt called for the midwives and said to them, "Why have you done this thing, and let the boys live?" (the lie) Ex 1:19 The midwives said to Pharaoh, "Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women; for they are vigorous and give birth before the midwife can get to them." 5 Ex 1:20 So God was good to the midwives, and the people multiplied, and became very mighty. 6 Ex 1:21 Because the midwives feared God, He established households for them. Sounds like they lied, and God blessed themby establishing houses for them, They feared God, and He blessed them for it. We are under no obligation to do something detrimental to our own flesh. I guess the question is, "what did they fear of God, as opposed to the kings directive?" Was it, "Thou shalt not kill". What was Pharoah commanding? Thank you, wordoer |

6 | Would God separate a marriage? | Mal 2:16 | wordoer | 223731 | ||
Here is the scriptural account that God divorced His wife Israel, But He didn't divorce Judah. Jer 3:8 "And I saw that for all the adulteries of faithless Israel, I had sent her away and given her a writ of divorce, yet her treacherous sister Judah did not fear; but she went and was a harlot also. I believe divorce separates a marriage, so I answer, "Yes". God hates divorce, but He did it. wordoer |

10 | jesus said , iwas hungry and you fedme , | Matt 25:35 | wordoer | 221943 | ||
Hello m123, Brad is correct, it is the sheep, and allowing the Bible to explain itself: Matthew 25:33 shows the ones on the right as - the sheep. Jer 50:6 "My people have become lost sheep; Their shepherds have led them astray. They have made them turn aside on the mountains; They have gone along from mountain to hill And have forgotten their resting place. 4 Matt 10:6 but rather go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 5 Matt 15:24 But He answered and said, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." His people Israel are what is refered to in scripture as "lost sheep". All people are not sheep, the Bible also shows that the goats, birds, snakes, etc... Are not his people. hope this helps, wordoer |

Hello MAMAMETAL, Now here is a contradiction, Baptism now saves us. "1 Pet 3:21 Corresponding to that, baptism now saves you--not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience--through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, " Now what will you do? Peter was speaking to believers in Acts Chapter 2. wordoer |

13 | do u tithe on unemployment checks | 1 Tim 1:8 | wordoer | 220606 | ||
Hello unbrown, Yes, you are to tithe of your increase. Mal 3:10 "Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this," says the LORD of hosts, "if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows. The tithe consists of ten percent of your increase, if you earn 100, you tithe 10. If you are being stolen from before (via tax), you give 10 percent of what your increase is. An example is if you end up with 65 denari, you tithe 6.5 denari. wordoer |

14 | ... | John 8:58 | wordoer | 214430 | ||
Hello humility, I do not think that is a parable, but rather a straight answer. The Name is the same, Jesus said in John 17:11, "I am no longer in the world; and yet they themselves are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name which You have given Me, that they may be one even as We are." Jesus is saying, God gave Him His Name, Jesus. Which is God's Name. Is 25:9 And it will be said in that day, "Behold, this is our God for whom we have waited that He might save us. This is the LORD for whom we have waited; Let us rejoice and be glad in His salvation." You must read in context - Jesus is simply asking a question in response, then making a straightforward statement. Matt 19:16 And someone came to Him and said, "Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may obtain eternal life?" Matt 19:17 And He said to him, "Why are you asking Me about what is good? There is only One who is good; but if you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments." Matt 19:18 Then he *said to Him, "Which ones?" And Jesus said, "YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT MURDER; YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT ADULTERY; YOU SHALL NOT STEAL; YOU SHALL NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS; Matt 19:19 HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER; and YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF." wordoer |

15 | This generation will not pass away.... | Bible general Archive 4 | wordoer | 214279 | ||
The Lockman Foundation does not pre-screen Postings. Postings are the opinions of others and may or may not represent a commonly held view. Hello eascusa, This definition is from the word "generation", as used in Matthew 24:34, By definition, first and foremost it means "race". genea; from 1096; race, family, generation. Just from simply reading the verse, and seeing the implication makes it difficult for it mean that this is just for a contemporary group of people standing there listening to the words of the Master, But rather their race. He was speaking with the disciples. Some will still maintain that it can mean nothing more than that definition of those living at that time. The history and events show that some of these things were going to happen a little farther along than before the death of the people He was speaking in front of. Some of the things also did happen in the lifetime of those contemporaries, but not all of them. As an example the same word is used in 1 Pet 2:9 But you are A CHOSEN RACE,… My FOUNDATION PUBLICATIONS NASB, gives the word “race”, in the verse reference for the passage in Matthew . In the context of the verses, He has just mentioned a fig tree in verse 32. Something to consder in light of this is; Jer 24:5 "Thus says the LORD God of Israel, 'Like these good figs, so I will regard as good the captives of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans. Judg 9:14 "Finally all the trees said to the bramble, 'You come, reign over us!' Mark 8:24 And he looked up and said, "I see men, for I see them like trees, walking around." 10 Jude 1:12 These are the men who are hidden reefs in your love feasts when they feast with you without fear, caring for themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn trees without fruit, doubly dead, uprooted; wordoer |

16 | Does Hebrew tradition explain folded? | John 20:7 | wordoer | 214156 | ||
Hello Angela, The folded napkin is understood to mean that the Master is not finished. When sitting to eat the slave would stand by silently, and the Master would have his meal. If he put the napkin on the table in a manner (unfolded) meant that he was finished. Jesus left the napkin folded, He is not finished, He is returning. What a great message. wordoer |

18 | Passage may say some born cannot be save | 2 Pet 2:9 | wordoer | 200584 | ||
Hello granny4jesus, He was most likely speaking of the vessels of wrath reserved for destruction, as written in Rom 9:22. Ps 58:3 The wicked are estranged from the womb; These who speak lies go astray from birth. Jude 1:4, also 10-16 Rom 3:13 "THEIR THROAT IS AN OPEN GRAVE, WITH THEIR TONGUES THEY KEEP DECEIVING," "THE POISON OF ASPS IS UNDER THEIR LIPS"; or Psalm chapter 5, may it be so. These are some verses that come to mind. Please let me know if any of these are it. There are definitely more scriptures that teach what your "member" was speaking of. Praise be to His Holy name, Jesus. wordoer |

20 | Sin to charge interest on a loan? | Bible general Archive 4 | wordoer | 196538 | ||
Hello pbp, Yes , it is a sin to charge interest on a loan to your own people. The Bible term is "usury" Neh 5:7 I consulted with myself and contended with the nobles and the rulers and said to them, "You are exacting usury, each from his brother!" Therefore, I held a great assembly against them. :36 'Do not take usurious interest from him, but revere your God, that your countryman may live with you. Lev 25:37 'You shall not give him your silver at interest, nor your food for gain. You can charge interest to a foriegner. Deut 23:20 "You may charge interest to a foreigner, but to your countrymen you shall not charge interest, so that the LORD your God may bless you in all that you undertake in the land which you are about to enter to possess. Search "interest", and "usury" in the upper right of this page. Hope that helps, wordoer |
