2 | Trinity or Oneness? | Bible general Archive 4 | fellowlaborer | 225391 | ||
Great answer BradK in describing the Trinity and thanks for the additional tidbit about Trinitarian, I will do further research on that. I have been blessed with the opportunity to teach Bible Study for the months November and December; and we are in the book of ACTS. And, that is one item I tried to make clear. What I found is in the KJV 1 John 5:7 shows the "Trinity"; however, in many other versions it looks like that verse was omitted. Have you noticed? Blessings Fellowlaborer |

3 | 1 Timothy 6:3 | 1 Cor 9:19 | fellowlaborer | 218387 | ||
My dear Brother I have been in the faith and ministry for approximately 25 years. Of all the preachers and teachings I have heard, I found when I continued to hear their sermons... there was something that did not jive with God's Word. All of us will continue to learn and to grow... I will enjoin you in prayer and my admonishment to you is to know that you know that you know you are moving with God. The Spirit of the Lord will lead you where you should serve, the times and the seasons. Rom 8:14 No offense, but when I read that questionnaire presented by one of our brothers, my heart wrenched. From my personal experience, I have been in some congregations where it wasn't so much as what I received but what I gave. And as God gave opportunities I would teach and preach as the Lord led. And, I constantly engaged in prayer for the leadership and the people. Usually when I was in a place of contentment the Lord would lead me to the next mission. For then could I hear His still and quiet voice. My brother put on the whole armour of God... pray. Eph 6:10-18. Be blessed. |

4 | "Women being silent" | Gal 3:28 | fellowlaborer | 218373 | ||
Beautifully put. Our God and Father is so awesome He allowed us to see the stages of change from Old Testament to New Testament. He showed us David's shortcomings and his growth... Joseph's shortcomings and his growth Jacob's and even the Apostle Paul. And, I believe as he grew in Christ...(and as we grow in Christ), we can receive the greater knowledge God longs to impart unto us. I am grateful for the discussion for it has brought a broader perception of our awesome God and His awesome plan for us. As written in the book of John, "But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come." It's a Wonderful Life. Be blessed. |

5 | Scripturally, can women be pastors? | Gal 3:28 | fellowlaborer | 218372 | ||
Well, I have no profound answer. Most of the letters were written to a church...and usually the leaders were addressed. Thank you for the commentary excerpts... I am taking a turn, for I am not sure "elder" is a less authoratative designation for we find the elders around the throne of God Rev 4:4, 5:5 and, I do beleive one of the elders may be the Apostle John. Also, from the commentary excerpts, I extract this to be a woman of influence and even one who imparts instruction. My own deduction -- a pastor. :-) Thanks again. Be blessed! |

6 | "Women being silent" | Gal 3:28 | fellowlaborer | 218359 | ||
As I read the dialogue regarding "Women being silent" I noticed something. The scriptures that were outlined pertained to women who had a husband; which would be the role of wife. The creation of the woman was always a part of God's plan. The order of creation was perfect for as man noticed the male and female animals; then God relayed this powerful and profound truth. When God created all things He said "It is good." Yet, for man to be alone God said that is not good. And, Adam was promoted :-). Please excuse me for jumping around... Now, the word "usurp" by definition means to take authority by force. (And, I have seen this happen too many times in the marriage union.) Now, I Tim 2 opens with admonishment for prayer and for "all in authority." And at the latter part of the chapter when the woman is mentioned the direction again went toward a marriage union. Also, women having positions of authority is not a A.D. occurence. We find that Deborah was a judge - in the book of Judges. History identifies notable queens, e.g. Queen Esther; as well as, notable women mentioned in the genealogy found in Matthew 1. Also, historians give the probable dates for the book of I Timothy as unknown. The probable date for Galatians 55 and 60 a.d. II Timothy probable dates between 65 and 67 and in this book the Apostle Paul acknowledges Timothy's grandmother and mother with credit for Timothy's faith -- maybe they did some teaching. Paul spent time and was taught by Aquilla and Priscilla. Which I will quote Gal 3:28 "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus." Those who are led by the spirit are the sons of God. I don't know if I said everything that came to me or if you can follow me... I just trust that we will "...hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man." And, I believe it is referring to all mankind. And the apostle Paul also says those who are unmarried is concerned about the things of the Lord 1 Cor 7:32-34. Let us be about our Father's business. |

7 | I want my wife back | Bible general Archive 3 | fellowlaborer | 186029 | ||
My Dear Brother, after reading your entry - this delicate matter I will lift before our Father in prayer. We do want to be careful not to seek scripture to justify the course of action we choose or for the sake of getting our desired expectation - which can easily fall into carnality. I believe the whole Word of God and believe we have power and authority according to His Word to "call those things that are not as though they were" to pray and stand on the promises of God; and, I know all things are possible with God. And yes - forgiveness and restoration is so much a part of love and marriage. Yet, there are consequences to every choice we make -- good consequences or nore challenging consequences. Is this more of a prayer request? And, if you are both believers the scripture I would admonish is Matthew 6:33 and as you give yourself to the Word and prayer the Lord will heal and restore as you follow His lead. We can pray with you... and this is what I remind us "married folks" with - God does not make robots; we all still have free-will, free-choice. Whatever the outcome - we pray that forgiveness, healing and restoration will have complete manifestation in both of your lives. 2 Cor 5:18 is an initial calling given to believers - "ministry of reconciliation" -- that is what we preach, that is what we live -- that is love. I will stop now. Be blessed. |

9 | Did God create Life? | Gen 1:1 | fellowlaborer | 161291 | ||
That is pretty good. But, I cannot find where the Word states God is life. I do find where it states God is Love.I John 4:8 Now, I find this inquisition is much deeper than I initially perceived. Also, I differ about the "invisible" part - When Jesus was asked show us the Father Jn 14:8-9. Moses saw His hinder part, Isaiah saw the Lord, etc. and I see the "invisible." Am I still missing the question? | ||||||

11 | Did God create Life? | Gen 1:1 | fellowlaborer | 161274 | ||
Please help me clarify your question - are you asking if God created me - a person? Spirit, soul and Body? Would you say without the breath of life there would be no life? All life creation is found in Genesis 1:1- I will say all life in the heavens, and in earth. The earth creations are more detailed in Genesis, and can be found in the book of Job and in the Psalms (that's without indepth study) However, I will take time if need be to identify more specific scriptural passages but, I hope you will pursue the research with just a few pointers. Also, the heavens' creations can be found in Ezekiel, Isaiah, Psalms, and Revelations (again, without indepth study of this particular matter). Again, if I am totally missing your question - please reword the question to help me understand what you are asking. God bless you! | ||||||
12 | Speaking in Tongue | Acts 2:4 | fellowlaborer | 160764 | ||
Dear ItsMe and Searcher and Praise the Lord Everybody! This matter of speaking in tongues excites me. Remember Paul said (I Cor 14 vss 1,2,4,5,13,18,32,39)I speak/pray in tongues more than all of you -- that lets me know it is a gift to be desired. There are some "speaking in tongues" when the anointing of God comes upon a person -that is not the gift - a gift is yours and can pretty much be used at your own choosing. There are "diverse" tongues. Also, for every gift or manifestation there is also a counterfeit; however, go forth according to your faith. Diverse tongues - there are "other tongues" which are other languages- and can be translated; there are "unknown tongues" which is between your spirit and the spirit of God--self edification;and, there are tongues that can be interpreted by the speaker or someone else. And-that should cover it in a nutshell:-). Be Blessed - according to your faith go forth in pursuing and/or speaking in tongues in Jesus name. | ||||||
