1 | GOD TURNED HIS BACK ON JESUS WHEN JESUS | Bible general Archive 2 | mbooker | 94973 | ||
Good morning Ray I just happened across your post and 'we will not find in the Scriptures that He "became sin"' caught my eye. Some one may have already posted this and I apologize if they have, but, without having read through this entire post, graceful may have been referring to 2 Cor 5:21 if she said Jesus "became sin". While the KJV doesn't say he "became sin" it does phrase it like this: For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. So, if someone said Jesus "became sin" or "was turned into sin" or "was made sin", I would automatically think of 2 Cor 5:21 Your Sister in Christ Meredith |

Interesting that the root word for denomination is division. Didn't Jesus say a house divided against itself cannot stand? |

8 | Is praying to created beings scriptural? | Bible general Archive 1 | mbooker | 62785 | ||
Hank #2 gave me a chuckle! And I whole heartily agree that we have enough enemies outside the body without having to war within the body. Our Lord and Brother said: A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. John 13:34-35 May all the world know that we are his disciples by the love we have (and show) for one another. Abba Father Bless... |

10 | Praying to Mary isn't worship? | Bible general Archive 1 | mbooker | 71624 | ||
Good morning Emmaus :) I don’t want to bother you… but I need to ask you a question. Last night I was watching the Discovery Health channel and they were talking about a little girl who was born deaf. She was miraculously healed (about the age of 3 or 4) and the doctors had absolutely no explanation for it. At that point I began to smile and said ‘Someone was praying for that little girl’. Then, it was said a Sister (forgot her name) had prayed for the little girl. Then they started talking about the Vatican (I think that’s the word they used) the Sister was a part of. Anyway, it was mentioned that if she performed one more miracle, she would become a saint. I have heard something similar to this from a co-worker who was raised in a Catholic church. She said that in order to become a saint, you had to do so many miracles. I went to one of the sites (catholic.om) you posted not too long ago, but was not able to find whether or not the above is taught by those in a Catholic church. Is this taught? If so, is there a site I can read up on it? Thanks for your help Meredith |

12 | What is the "Force of Faith"? | Bible general Archive 1 | mbooker | 83096 | ||
Hi Brother Tim... long time to see... :) Since this thread is restricted, I will venture to ask this: Those that were 'tortured, flogged, stoned, and sawn in two', could they be the 'others (who) were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection' (v35)? The key being THEY did not accept the deliverance that Abba Father provided. OK, that's my question, and I'm outta here!!! Grace and peace to you, Beloved of God |

Hi Brother John I have been reading these posts and wondered if you wouldn't mind engaging me in a bit of dialouge. I admit up front :) that I do not have the same view as you concerning this but I want to share with you my thought process and I want to correctly understand your view. I'm also not sure if this (the forum) would be the place for us to go back and forth, but if its OK, I would appreciate your time. Abba Father Bless |

Good! :) When you say "The Reformed view sees God as exercising absolute control over all of his creation", my mind says "OK. All of God’s creation does what He wants them to do". Is my thinking incorrect? Abba Father Bless Meredith |

Good Morning Brother John! So, my first question wasn’t hard enough huh? :) OK, I believe I understand where you are coming from so far. As for Acts 4:27-28, did God predestine Jesus’ dying (the lamb that was slain from the foundation of the world Rev 13:8) because: 1. He predestined Adam and Eve to disobey, thus the need for Jesus’ sacrifice or 2. He already knew from the beginning that Adam and Eve would disobey His commandment When you say, ‘His will will be done’, I think back to the beginning. In the Garden of Eden when God "commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die", I would say that it was God’s will that Adam eat freely, except for the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. When "the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat", I would say they were going against what God told them i.e. going against His will. Adam and Eve had the ability to go against God’s commandment/will and they did. But they also suffered the consequences of going against Him. And in spite of their disobedience, God was ready with a plan (Jesus) to redeem man. I think of what Jesus said about Jerusalem: "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones God's messengers! How often I have wanted to gather your children together as a hen protects her chicks beneath her wings, but you wouldn't let me." Luke 13:34 God told Moses "Speak unto the children of Israel, that they bring me an offering: of every man that giveth it willingly with his heart ye shall take my offering." Exodus 25:2 I guess the best way I can express my view is this God wills for us to come to Him with a willing heart (whosoever will, let him come). At this point, I believe if we are not willing, He won’t override our will and control us to the point that we will come. Hope I wasn't confussing in my reply... :) Abba Father Bless Meredith |

Hi Brother John OK, I think I see where you are coming from but let me personalize it. 1. God predestined the Fall 2. If I sin/fall, God has predestined for me to sin/fall 3. While I sin for evil reasons, God however predestined me to sin for His end purpose Maybe I’m simplifying it, but what I seek to do is get understand of biblical principles then apply them to myself. And you may be right. Maybe we won’t fully understanding it this side of heaven but 1 Cor 2:15-16 caught my attention one day and propels me to search out and seek knowledge and understanding of my Father’s heart. “But the spiritual man tries all things [he examines, investigates, inquires into, questions, and discerns all things], yet is himself to be put on trial and judged by no one [he can read the meaning of everything, but no one can properly discern or appraise or get an insight into him]. For who has known or understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of the Lord so as to guide and instruct Him and give Him knowledge? But we have the mind of Christ (the Messiah) and do hold the thoughts (feelings and purposes) of His heart” Abba Father bless… Meredith |

Hi Hank :) To be honest, I am not clear on all the ins and outs of predestination and election. In this post, I was expressing to John what I understood him to be saying. I was not saying I agreed with what I stated in the post, only that that was what I understood him to be saying. btw, I'm simple and unsophistcated too :). I'm just seeking to rightly understand scripture in my own simply way then live out scripture in my life so that I can be a living espistle. Abba Father bless you and keep you... Meredith |

18 | Do altars belong in christian churches? | Ex 17:15 | mbooker | 97873 | ||
Praise ye the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints. Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp. Ps 149 1-3 Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power. Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness. Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp. Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs. Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals. Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD. Ps 150 Concerning dancing before the Lord, is it forbidden during what we typically today call 'worship' service? Where exactly in scripture can we find the prescribed elements of worship? Is praise one of those elements? |

Yes, religion may do that to you but… ‘where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty’ 2 Cor 3:17 and a man named Jesus, aka ‘The Truth’ (John 14:6) , makes us free :) sorry Sir Pent :), but when I read the post, the above came up in me :). Forgive this impetuous woman! Abba Father Bless… Meredith |

retxar 'Also, do you also take the stand that a women can have more than one husband.' I have been reading thru this thread and more than once the same question has gone thru my mind :) (especially since I am a woman!! LOL). I was wondering if the old saying was true: What's good for the goose is good for the gander! But seriously, one man is enough for me! :) |
