You said "the Muslims will the Gentiles that will bring the Jews to the Lord" I wonder what "lord" the Muslims will bring the Jews to. The Lord Who said "This is My beloved Son." Mat. 3:17 and other places in the New Testament. Or, Allah who said "I have no son." |

That is great that you know one Muslim that is born again. To be born again he must acknowledge that Jesus died for his sins and rosea gain for his life. Both those things are denied by Muslims. Muslims believe that Jesus never died on the cross to save us; and they believe that he was never ressurected since they believe he was never crucified. I was replying to your quote that Peter Tsukahira said that 'the Muslims will be the Gentiles that will bring the Jews to the Lord'. So I just asked which 'LORD' did he mean. The Lord Jesus Christ? I do not under estimate the power of the Gospel on the heart and mind of Muslims. When they believe that Jesus died and rose again for their sins, they are Christians not Muslims who do not believe in the crucifiction and ressurection. |

3 | Jews' word for Hell comesfrom whatvalley | Bible general Archive 2 | meusing | 151739 | ||
From Easton's Bible dictionary: Hinnom A deep, narrow ravine separating Mount Zion from the so-called “Hill of Evil Counsel.” It took its name from “some ancient hero, the son of Hinnom.” It is first mentioned in Jos_15:8. It had been the place where the idolatrous Jews burned their children alive to Moloch and Baal. A particular part of the valley was called Tophet, or the “fire-stove,” where the children were burned. After the Exile, in order to show their abhorrence of the locality, the Jews made this valley the receptacle of the offal of the city, for the destruction of which a fire was, as is supposed, kept constantly burning there. The Jews associated with this valley these two ideas, (1.) that of the sufferings of the victims that had there been sacrificed; and (2.) that of filth and corruption. It became thus to the popular mind a symbol of the abode of the wicked hereafter. It came to signify hell as the place of the wicked. “It might be shown by infinite examples that the Jews expressed hell, or the place of the damned, by this word. The word Gehenna [the Greek contraction of Hinnom] was never used in the time of Christ in any other sense than to denote the place of future punishment.” About this fact there can be no question. In this sense the word is used eleven times in our Lord's discourses (Mat_23:33; Luk_12:5; Mat_5:22, etc.). |

Well, some people like the American Episcapalian Bishop Spong who reads the the Bible to disproove it. His latest book is called "The Sins of the Bible" Reading, and studying the Bible has not led him to faith, but confirmed his unbelief. |

I did not mean to open a can of worms, this is the post I was replying to. I do not know what number it is. Kalos was replying and he said --- Note: You write: "merely reading, or even studying the Bible, will not necessarily result in Christian faith." But God says: So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17 (KJV) --- by the word 'but' I thought he was refuting the previous statement with the verse. I just tried to show that some read and study the Bible and are not converted. |

I really would not have said anything if I had not thought that he was trying to refute the statement that "merely reading, or even studying the Bible, will not necessarily result in Christian faith." If he was agreeing with that statement then I was wrong to support it. I did not mean to attack him, just show that the statement was true. that is the only reason I said anything. |

9 | HOW COULD JESUS BE A DESCENDANT OF DAVID | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 39386 | ||
Luke, and John show that Jesus, the Word of God became man. He was not the Holy Spirit. Nor is He the Father. Luke 9:12 says nothing about any incarnation. If you are refeing to verse 30, Moses and Elijah were men in their own right. Jesus is the Creator they were part of His creation. In respose to the other part of the question, His mother Mary was descended from David through the line of Nathan, so, so was He. So, Rom 1:3 is true He was born the seed of David according to the flesh. When Joseph (descended from the royal line) married Mary (descended from the leagal line) He gave to Jesus the royal title of descendant of David which He had leagally through His mother. |

Jesus did not say we would be judged and punished acording to our worth. John 5:22 Even the Father judges no one, for He has given all judgment (the last judgment and the whole business of judging) entirely into the hands of the Son, Note, not the Holy Spirit John 5:23 So that all men may give honor (reverence, homage) to the Son just as they give honor to the Father. [In fact] whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father, Who has sent Him. John 5:24 I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, the person whose ears are open to My words [who listens to My message] and believes and trusts in and clings to and relies on Him Who sent Me has (possesses now) eternal life. And he does not come into judgment [does not incur sentence of judgment, will not come under condemnation], but he has already passed over out of death into life. John 3:18 He who believes in Him [who clings to, trusts in, relies on Him] is not judged [he who trusts in Him never comes up for judgment; for him there is no rejection, no condemnation--he incurs no damnation]; but he who does not believe (cleave to, rely on, trust in Him) is judged already [he has already been convicted and has already received his sentence] because he has not believed in and trusted in the name of the only begotten Son of God. [He is condemned for refusing to let his trust rest in Christ's name.] |

What you just posted denies everything that Jesus said about the Holy Spirit and the Father. I thought that when we posted something here that we agreed that what we posted was biblicly based. He was NEVER called the Holy Spirit. He talked about the Holy Spirit as a separate person. Read John 14:16-20 He is not the Father because He taught us to pray to the Father, not Him. He told us to talk to the Father in His name. Jesus asked the Father to send the Holy Spirit. John 14:16 |

Heb 2:14 Since, therefore, [these His] children share in flesh and blood [in the physical nature of human beings], He [Himself] in a similar manner partook of the same [nature], that by [going through] death He might bring to nought and make of no effect him who had the power of death--that is, the devil-- 15 And also that He might deliver and completely set free all those who through the [haunting] fear of death were held in bondage throughout the whole course of their lives. 16 For, as we all know, He [Christ] did not take hold of angels [the fallen angels, to give them a helping and delivering hand], but He did take hold of [the fallen] descendants of Abraham [to reach out to them a helping and delivering hand]. [Isa. 41:8, 9.] 17 So it is evident that it was essential that He be made like His brethren in every respect, in order that He might become a merciful (sympathetic) and faithful High Priest in the things related to God, to make atonement and propitiation for the people's sins. 18 For because He Himself [in His humanity] has suffered in being tempted (tested and tried), He is able [immediately] to run to the cry of (assist, relieve) those who are being tempted and tested and tried [and who therefore are being exposed to suffering]. Heb 4:15 For we do not have a High Priest Who is unable to understand and sympathize and have a shared feeling with our weaknesses and infirmities and liability to the assaults of temptation, but One Who has been tempted in every respect as we are, yet without sinning. |

We all deserve punishment. That is why Jesus came. Is 53:4 Surely He has borne our griefs (sicknesses, weaknesses, and distresses) and carried our sorrows and pains [of punishment], yet we [ignorantly] considered Him stricken, smitten, and afflicted by God [as if with leprosy]. [Matt. 8:17.] 5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities; the chastisement [needful to obtain] peace and well-being for us was upon Him, and with the stripes [that wounded] Him we are healed and made whole. Rom 3:21 But now the righteousness of God has been revealed independently and altogether apart from the Law, although actually it is attested by the Law and the Prophets, 22 Namely, the righteousness of God which comes by believing with personal trust and confident reliance on Jesus Christ (the Messiah). [And it is meant] for all who believe. For there is no distinction, 23 Since all have sinned and are falling short of the honor and glory which God bestows and receives. 24 [All] are justified and made upright and in right standing with God, freely and gratuitously by His grace (His unmerited favor and mercy), through the redemption which is [provided] in Christ Jesus, 25 Whom God put forward [before the eyes of all] as a mercy seat and propitiation by His blood [the cleansing and life-giving sacrifice of atonement and reconciliation, to be received] through faith. This was to show God's righteousness, because in His divine forbearance He had passed over and ignored former sins without punishment. 26 It was to demonstrate and prove at the present time (in the now season) that He Himself is righteous and that He justifies and accepts as righteous him who has [true] faith in Jesus. that is why Jesus could say : John 3:18 He who believes in Him [who clings to, trusts in, relies on Him] is not judged [he who trusts in Him never comes up for judgment; for him there is no rejection, no condemnation--he incurs no damnation]; but he who does not believe (cleave to, rely on, trust in Him) is judged already [he has already been convicted and has already received his sentence] because he has not believed in and trusted in the name of the only begotten Son of God. [He is condemned for refusing to let his trust rest in Christ's name.] |

you say "Matthew 28:19 States clearly that christians are babtize in the name of the father, the son, and the holy spirit." you also said "Yes,And that is why he is called the Holy Spirit. He is also the Father," Matt 28.19 does not say that Jesus is the Father, not does it say that Jesus is the Holy Spirit. |

I think we should like Jesus, submit ourselves to Him. He does not call Himself the Father. He does not call Himself the Holy Spirit. We should belive Him when He speaks of them as separate persons. Other wise we are saying that Jesus is a liar. Jesus: I will pray to the Father that He will send the Holy Spirit" You: No, you will pray to yourself that you will send yourself. Who is right? Jesus is not the Father. Jesus is not the Holy Spirit. |

What you just wrote directly denies the word of Jesus. It also denies the words of the Father. look at John 1 :1 IN THE beginning [before all time] was the Word (Christ), and the Word was WITH God, and the Word was God Himself. [Isa. 9:6.] 2. He was present originally WITH God. Mt 3:16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: 17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Lu 3:22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased. The Scripture is clear, Jesus is not the Father or the Holy Spirit. Mt 17:5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. 1 Cor 15:27 For He [the Father] has put all things in subjection under His [Christ's] feet. But when it says, All things are put in subjection [under Him], it is evident that He [Himself] is excepted Who does the subjecting of all things to Him. [Ps. 8:6.] 28 However, when everything is subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will also subject Himself to [the Father] Who put all things under Him, so that God may be all in all [be everything to everyone, supreme, the indwelling and controlling factor of life]. |

Jesus is not God the Father. God the Father spoke while Jesus was on earth. Jesus talked to God the Father. Jesus spoke of the Holy Spirit as another person not Himself. Yes the Father has spoken to us through His son. He is not his son. his son is not his father. The Father said "This is my Son hear Him." You refuse to hear what Jesus said for your own theories. In other words you are disobeying God the Father. By your own words you deny everything Jesus said in John 14-17. He does not say I am the Father, He says "Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me; or else believe Me for the sake of the [very] works themselves. [If you cannot trust Me,at least let these works that I do in My Father's name convince you.] Anyone who does not [really] love Me does not observe and obey My teaching. And the teaching which you hear and heed is not Mine, but [comes] from the Father Who sent Me. See, he is not speaking about himself John 14:26 But the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, Standby), the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name [in My place, to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will teach you all things. And He will cause you to recall (will remind you of, bring to your remembrance) everything I have told you. He is not speaking of the Holy Spirit as being himself. But you do not believe Him. Jesus was With the Father before he became a man. Jesus was with the Holy Spirit before He became a man. |

Hi, if I may, my wife and I have often been under attack with doubts about our salvation. I know the Bible says: "I know whom I have beleved and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day." 2 Tim. 1:12 I do not have to be busy trying to keep my salvation for it is in His hands. I like the old hymn that goes: From whence this fear and unbelief, If God, my Father, put to grief His spotless Son for me? Can He, the righteous Judge of men, Comdemn me for that debt of sin Which, Lord, was charged to Thee? Complete atonementThou hast made, And to the utmost farthing paid Whate'er Thy people owed ; How, then can wrath on me take place, If sheltered in God's righteousness And sprinkled by Thy blood ? If Thou hast my discharge procured, And freely in my place endured The whole of wrath divine ; Payment God will not twice demand, First at my bleeding Surety's hand, And then again at mine. --- PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME --- Turn, then, my soul, unto thy rest; The merits of thy great High Priest Speak peace and libery ; Trust in His efficacious blood, Nor fear thy banishment from God, Since Jesus died for thee. Kept in Christ's love |
