1 | Is this a Christian Forum? | Not Specified | JCrichton | 105296 | ||
While searching for Biblical tools I came upon this site. It seemed interesting to me, since I have been searching for answers for many years. My excitement was short lived as I browsed through the forums Show Me section. I notice that the exchange was basically the same as in any other forum where people are mostly interested in ideologies, numerology and intellectualism. I could not believe the open hostility and the brazen superiority displayed in some of the exchange. Is this really a Christian Forum, where is the humility, the thirst for truth, the adhearance to Christs Teachings Matthew 5 1 through 6 15, specifically 6 14,15 James 1 19 thru 22 and 3 13 thru 18. | ||||||
2 | 13 Tribes or 12 Tribes? | Not Specified | JCrichton | 106420 | ||
From Genesis to Revelations there are various names used to represent the twelve tribes of Israel. I did a personal study of the tribes and found that there are thirteen tribes not twelve: in the Old Testament there are various names interchanged; one name or another being excluded/included in the list. And on the New Testament one particular tribe is excluded while the rest are included. Has anyone else seen this fact. Can you explain why,especifically in Revelation, is Dan omitted as one of the tribes? | ||||||

4 | Why are some people being disrespectful? | Not Specified | JCrichton | 119370 | ||
I have noticed that some of the people who post on this forum do not capitalize the letter "g" when they are making reference to God... some also use screen names that are either visibly or phonetically demonstrating some type of contempt for the very thing that they are supposedly seeking (Christian enlightenment)... has any body else noticed this? | ||||||
5 | Are you equating yourself to God? | Not Specified | JCrichton | 126131 | ||
-Minor, are you claiming to be deity? From your screen name I gathered that you and your father share a name and you do not want to be called Jr. or that you associate yourself with deity... Please do not feel offended if this is a simple misunderstanding. | ||||||
6 | Why so cryptic? | Not Specified | JCrichton | 126648 | ||
Hi, instead of posting cryptic questions that do not stand alone well... could these questions not be attached to their pertinent threads or at least amplified so that they could make some type of sense? | ||||||

8 | Emmaus, do u hv a lnk 2 dead c scrolls? | Not Specified | JCrichton | 129859 | ||
Emmaus, do you have a link to the Dead Sea Scrolls--specifically the MMT? If you have information on this could you drop an email: jcrichtonfs1@yahoo.com? Thanks! God Bless! Angel |

9 | Is the Holy Spirit a sin-enabler? | Not Specified | JCrichton | 138753 | ||
For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live, (Romans 8:13) Does Romans 8:13 apply only to unbelievers, atheists, devil worshippers or are Christians accountable to their actions in the sinful nature? Are there minor transgressions that do not violate the premise of this verse: if you live in sin you will die? Are “white lies,” masturbation, homosexuality, adultery, planned abortion, “victimless use of drugs,” wife abuse or “sinning just a little as a preventive measure” the exception to the rule? God Bless! Angel |

16 | Is this a Christian Forum? | Bible general Archive 2 | JCrichton | 105425 | ||
justme, Thanks for your comments. No, I did not jump the gun. The exchanges I read depicted a duel between two members. One used what I consider to be abusive language and another pleaded for a hault on the harrasment he was being subjected to. I do apologize if I seemed too stern in my critical observations. Maran atha! |

18 | what does the bible say about poligamy? | Bible general Archive 2 | JCrichton | 106473 | ||
annette, hi! There are many situations in the Old Testament where poligamy is practiced openly by the people of Israel. Two of the most confusing examples are David and Salomon. These were God's anointed kings. Their devotion to God and His Commandments was evident at the beginning of their carreers. David refuse to take Saul's life in order to gain the promised kingdom and Salomon asked only for wisdom to rule Israel... Yet they both became weak and gave in to their carnal pleasures: David took the wife of one of his generals (he even murdered him in order to hide his wickedness!), and Salomon, perhaps seeking the vanity of youth and manhood, became a hoarder of females. What I find relevant is Jesus' stand on poligamy: Matthew 5:31-32 and, more specifically, Matthew 5:27-28 "you have heard how it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.' But I say this to you, if a man looks at a woman lustfully, he has already committed adultery with her in his heart." Jesus may not have mentioned the word poligamy. But He left no doubt to what God expects of us on this matter. And not everyone welcomed Jesus' revelations. The Pharisees must have heard about His anti divorce stand and they ckecked Him: Matthew 19:3-9. Even Jesus' disciples were having problems with His marriage decree: Matthew 19:10. I hope that this has been of use to you. God Bless! |

19 | Why should we pray? | Bible general Archive 2 | JCrichton | 106562 | ||
Hi, scott! Is this a Bible/Religious youth group? If it is, you must first explain to all the members what the group is about (prayer, Bible study, wholesome--Biblical definition--recreational activities, etc.); secondly, establish ground rules (i.e.: those not ready to join the prayers should engage in quiet activities that would respect the prayer session and the rest of the members who are praying); lastly, engage them in activities that are constructive and educational. Regardless of the type of youth group, know that their background is not conductive to humble exchange. You as a spiritual leader must use Jesus formula for forgiveness (70 x 7--not that there is a set limit on forgiveness); also, you must organize activities that can help them discover their constructive abilities. You must not scold them for not understanding what prayer is or for not joining enthusiastically. And PRAY for their enlightenment. You might also want to include religious videos, organize an art/performing art club (with emphasis on Jesus--His birth, private and public life, miracles, suffering, death, resurrection... God Bless! |

20 | Pledge, "under God", WWJD? | Bible general Archive 2 | JCrichton | 106567 | ||
Hi, Tim! You have touched on the true point of debate. The founding fathers were concerned with the immidiate subjugation and suffering under the tyranny of England. They were concerned with having the freedom to worship, to pursuit happiness, to defend themselves, to gather together in a peaceful and constructive environment. They did not seek to carry automatic weapons or to censure the Church. We as a society embrace useless values (preached via the entertainment industries and the mass media) and, also as a culture, reject sound and spiritual values. When prayer was removed from public schools did that improve their environment? Did the mandates to teach sexual education in public schools, plan parenthood, and the distribution of needles and contraceptives irradicate the existing problems? Removing God from the pledge or from the dollar bill will certainly not bring a massive improvement on our nations moral and spiritual standing. When we remove God from our lives what/who replaces Him? God Bless! |
