4 | Whats meant by the THIRD HEAVEN | Bible general Archive 2 | DBR | 127166 | ||
Third Heaven. At 2 Corinthians 12:2-4 the apostle Paul describes one who was “caught away . . . to the third heaven” and “into paradise.” Since there is no mention in the Scriptures of any other person having had such an experience, it seems likely that this was the apostle’s own experience. Whereas some have endeavored to relate Paul’s reference to the third heaven to the early rabbinic view that there were stages of heaven, even a total of “seven heavens,” this view finds no support in the Scriptures. As we have seen, the heavens are not referred to specifically as if divided into platforms or stages, but, rather, the context must be relied upon to determine whether reference is to the heavens within earth’s atmospheric expanse, the heavens of outer space, the spiritual heavens, or something else. It therefore appears that the reference to “the third heaven” indicates the superlative degree of the rapture in which this vision was seen. Note the way words and expressions are repeated three times at Isaiah 6:3; Ezekiel 21:27; John 21:15-17; Revelation 4:8, evidently for the purpose of expressing an intensification of the quality or idea.

5 | What is an angel | Bible general Archive 2 | DBR | 127175 | ||
ANGEL Both the Hebrew malakh´ and the Greek aggelos literally mean “messenger.” From the first book of the Bible to the last, these words occur nearly 400 times. When spirit messengers are indicated, the words are translated “angels,” but if the reference definitely is to human creatures, the rendering is “messengers.” (Ge 16:7; 32:3; Jas 2:25; Re 22:8) However, in the highly symbolic book of Revelation certain references to ‘angels’ may apply to human creatures.—Re 2:1, 8, 12, 18; 3:1, 7, 14. Angels are sometimes termed spirits; that which is spirit is invisible and powerful. Thus we read: “A spirit came out and stood before Jehovah”; “Are they not all spirits for public service?” (1Ki 22:21; Heb 1:14) Having invisible spiritual bodies, they make their abode “in the heavens.” (Mr 12:25; 1Co 15:44, 50) They are also termed “sons of the true God,” “morning stars,” and “holy myriads” (or “holy ones”).—Job 1:6; 2:1; 38:7; De 33:2.

9 | How many Lazarus were there in the Bible | NT general Archive 1 | DBR | 127865 | ||
LAZARUS (Laz´a·rus) [probably the Gr. form of the Heb. name Eleazar, meaning “God Has Helped”]. 1. The brother of Martha and Mary; his resurrection was one of the outstanding miracles performed by Jesus Christ. (Joh 11:1, 2) Jesus had a deep love for this family living at Bethany, “about two miles” from Jerusalem on the road to Jericho. (Joh 11:5, 18, ftn) He had been entertained at their home, perhaps frequently.—Lu 10:38-42. 2. The name given to the beggar in Jesus’ illustration commonly known as the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. (Lu 16:19-31) In the Vulgate the word “rich” has been rendered by the Latin adjective dives, which is often mistakenly used as the proper name of the rich man. However, the Jewish name Lazarus itself was common in ancient times, a fact borne out by ossuary inscriptions. DBR |

10 | god create evil | Gen 1:31 | DBR | 127159 | ||
NO James 1:13-15 When under trial, let no one say: “I am being tried by God.” For with evil things God cannot be tried nor does he himself try anyone. 14 But each one is tried by being drawn out and enticed by his own desire. 15 Then the desire, when it has become fertile, gives birth to sin; in turn, sin, when it has been accomplished, brings forth death. All are free moral agents including the Angel that decided to rebel against God and made himself into the Devil and from him in one way or another stems ALL evil DBR |

11 | How do you explain? | Gen 1:31 | DBR | 127163 | ||
If God created evil etc. then that would make him responsible for murdering his own Son Jesus Christ or Lord (an evil act), how can that be so when the Bible says that "God IS Love," God's Love and evil are total opposites, also God is about eradicating evil out of his creation so then he would have to eradicate himself, and that cannot be can it?

12 | How do you substantiate your answere? | Gen 1:31 | DBR | 127169 | ||
The following text show Satan at work, only an angelic creature could possibly copy another angelic creature. 2 Cor 11:14 And no wonder, for Satan himself keeps transforming himself into an angel of light. We could say an Angel of Darkness copying God's righteous angelic messengers, for bad ends. The Devil made himself, a good agngel that did bad, the first to sin, for the purpose of getting humans to worship Him insted of God The Creator and he started with Adam and Eve. Lucifer reffers to the King of Babylon not the first Wicked one, Satan. This “king,” that is, the dynasty of Babylon, ‘lifted himself up’ in his own heart and was in his own eyes and in the eyes of his admirers a “shining one,” a “son of the dawn.” (In some translations the Latin Vulgate term “Lucifer” is retained. It is, however, merely the translation of the Hebrew word heh·lel´, “shining one.” Heh·lel´ is not a name or a title but, rather, a term describing the boastful position taken by Babylon’s dynasty of kings of the line of Nebuchadnezzar.) (Isa 14:4-21) Since Babylon was a tool of Satan, its “king” reflected Satan’s own ambitious desire. DBR |

13 | How do you explain? | Gen 1:31 | DBR | 127170 | ||
Sorry if I missunderstood you point. "God created man of corruptible flesh" not so as found at Deuteronomy 32:4-5 The Rock, perfect is his activity, For all his ways are justice. A God of faithfulness, with whom there is no injustice; Righteous and upright is he. 5 They have acted ruinously on their own part; They are not his children, the defect is their own. A generation crooked and twisted! Man makes himself bad by not obeying God's will. God tolerates evil but is not the cause of it, the text you site show God's toleration of evil. God will always bring ultimately disasters against man that do not do his will as they will "reap as they sow" see Gal 6:7-8. From God's view bringing evil results upon themselves and others for their bad deeds, so if God let this happen then it can be said to be from God but due to their own badness. DBR |

15 | How do you explain? | Gen 1:31 | DBR | 127208 | ||
There was a time when sin was not Romans 5:12 That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through . . . but not so now as all humans are from Adam and Eve under the influance of Satan The Devil. I did not say Jesus was Killed I said Murdered which is to take like AGAINST THE LAW, Mosaic in this case, Jesus did nothing for which to die from God's view, he was perfectly faithful hence his postion as the rensom etc., it was the wicked under the influance of the Devil that put him to death Just a God fortold wopuld happen as He knows that the wicked will try do anything to his will being done, but they will not win, ultimatly they will fail as in Jesus case, God ressutected him.

16 | what dose firstling mean | Gen 4:4 | DBR | 127950 | ||
FIRSTBORN, FIRSTLING The firstborn is primarily the oldest son of a father (rather than the firstborn of the mother), the beginning of the father’s generative power (Deut 21:17); also, the initial male offspring of animals, at times designated as “firstlings.”—Ge 4:4. DBR |

17 | What is meaning of Seek ye first ? | Gen 4:4 | DBR | 127951 | ||
Matt 6:33 “Keep on, then, seeking first (Gk. “proton”)* the kingdom and his righteousness, and all these [other] things will be added to YOU. What does it mean to “seeking first the kingdom”? *First [Adverb] proton the neuter of the adjective protos, is used as an adverb, signifying "first, firstly," e.g., of time, Matt 8:21; of order, Rom 3:2 (AV, "chiefly"); in John 7:51, RV, "except it first hear from himself" (the AV, "before it hear him," follows the mss. which have proteron).”-Vine’s Expository Dictionary’ *“Proton – The sense “above all” is the obvious one in Mt. 6:33, for Jesus is not teaching that we should seek the kingdom and then other things, but that there should be exclusive orientation to the divine kingdom and righteousness.”-‘Theological Dictionary of The New Testament’ (Little Kittel) by G. Bromiley p.966 From which we get the word:- Protons: Particles with a positive electric charge equal to that of the electron. A constituent of the nucleus of every atom. Elementary Particles of the Atom’s World - By 1932 the [Atom’s] nucleus was found to be made up of protons and neutrons. Protons carry the positive charge of the atom—exactly equal in size but opposite in kind to the negative charge on the electron. A “Proton” is a fundamental part of the center or Nucleus of an Atom. “First” means not that something is part of our existence; it is our existence, the Nucleus of our life!! Thus: “The truth (found in The Bile) is not part of our life, it is our life. Everything else revolves around it.” RIGHTEOUSNESS The Hebrew tsedheq and tsedhaqah´ as well as the Greek dikaiosyne have the thought af “rectitude,” “uprightness,” indicating a standard or norm determining what is upright. “Righteousness” is frequently used in connection with a judge, or with judgment, giving the term a somewhat legal flavor (hence, the original-language terms are at times translated “justice”). (Ps 35:24; 72:2; 96:13; Isa 11:4; Re 19:11) In the Mosaic Law, at Leviticus 19:36, tsedheq is used four times in connection with business transactions: “You should prove to have accurate [“just,” AT, KJ, Le] scales, accurate weights, an accurate ephah and an accurate hin.” God Sets the Standard. Greek scholar Kenneth S. Wuest says: “God is the objective standard which determines the content of meaning of dikaios [righteous], and at the same time keeps that content of meaning constant and unchanging, since He is the unchanging One.” He then quotes Cremer as saying: “Righteousness in the biblical sense is a condition of rightness the standard of which is God, which is estimated according to the divine standard, which shows itself in behavior conformable to God, and has to do above all things with its relation to God, and with the walk before Him. It is, and it is called dikaiosune theou (righteousness of God) (Rom. 3:21; 1:17), righteousness as it belongs to God, and is of value before Him, Godlike righteousness, see Eph. 4:24; with this righteousness thus defined, the gospel (Rom. 1:17) comes into the world of nations which had been wont to measure by a different standard.”—Studies in the Vocabulary of the Greek New Testament, 1946, p. 37.

19 | Explantation of Gen. 6:1-6 | Gen 6:2 | DBR | 127678 | ||
Jude 1:6 And angels who did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode, He has kept in eternal bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day, Jude 1:7 just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and went after strange flesh, are exhibited as an example in undergoing the punishment of eternal fire. "these" in verse 7 are the Angels in verse 6 that became wicked. It would seem that the angels that became wicked materialized themselves to have relations with women which was a violation of God plan for them and humans. DBR |

20 | Why two dreams instead of only one? | Gen 41:25 | DBR | 128016 | ||
Two. The number two frequently appears in a legal setting. Agreement in the accounts of two witnesses adds to the force of the testimony. Two witnesses, or even three, were required to establish a matter before the judges. This principle is also followed in the Christian congregation. (De 17:6; 19:15; Mt 18:16; 2Co 13:1; 1Ti 5:19; Heb 10:28) God adhered to this principle in presenting his Son to the people as mankind’s Savior. Jesus said: “In your own Law it is written, ‘The witness of two men is true.’ I am one that bears witness about myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness about me.”—Joh 8:17, 18. Doing something a second time—for example, repetition of a statement or vision, even in only a parallel way—firmly established the matter as sure and true (as in Pharaoh’s dream of the cows and the ears of grain; Ge 41:32). Biblical Hebrew poetry is full of thought parallelism, which establishes more firmly in mind the truths stated and at the same time clarifies matters by the variety of wording in the parallelism.—See Ps 2, 44, and others. In Daniel’s prophecy a certain beast’s having “two horns” symbolized duality in rulership of the Medo-Persian Empire.—Da 8:20, 21; compare Re 13:11. What do you think? DBR |
