2 | Holy Spirit and Holy Ghost? | Not Specified | TxRedBelle | 53981 | ||
If anyone would happen to have a Greek Bible, I am trying to discern if there is a difference between the Holy Spirit and the Holy Ghost. Our English version Bible seems to imlpy there is no difference but I am under the impression that in the Greek there is a difference. Can anyone help me with this? Thank you and God bless. | ||||||

4 | The three Earth Ages | Genesis | TxRedBelle | 53522 | ||
Thank you for your answer JustMe. I'm sorry, perhaps I should have explained better what I was thinking when I say 'the three earth ages'. Sometimes I forget to say what I mean...it drives my children crazy too! As I understand things, there are three earth ages. I do not buy into the evolution theory either after all, in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Darwin theory and all that makes simply no sense to me, even before I gave my life to God I couldn't swollow that. But we know, because we have physical evidence that dinosaurs and such roamed the earth. When I talked to my nephew about this his theory was that maybe God just didn't think that one all the way thru...he was eight. I laughed til I cried. Anyway, if I understand things correctly, this was the first Earth age. God was not pleased and destroyed this age. According to my nephew that was understandable, after all have you seen pictures of the dinosaurs? We know, because we have evidence again, that everything was destroyed in one horrific episode and I believe that no one but God in Heaven has the power to create such disaster. Thus began the second Earth age. This is where we find Adam and Eve. We live still today in that second earth age. The third earth age will be the time directly following the Rapture. That is the extent of what I know about this but I believe somewhere in the Bible it alludes briefly two different places to the first earth age but I can not find it anywhere. And although I have not gotten to the study of Revelations yet as I am still very young in the Lord, I believe Revelation would apparently be primarily about the third earth age. I am sorry about being so vague about my question before but what I was wondering was if I am even close to base on this subject and if it does vaguely mention this subject somewhere in the Bible. Thank you again for your patience. God bless, Toni |

5 | Concerning the baptism topic.... | John 3:5 | TxRedBelle | 53372 | ||
I believe that Jesus gave two 'ordainances', (for lack of a better word, the correct word escapes me right now) one was to observe communion and the other was water baptism. Both are for the purpose (although not solely) of the public show of accceptance of Christ Jesus as Savior. Matt.10:32 says "If anyone acknowledges me publicly here on earth, I will openly acknowledge that person before my Father in Heaven". Water baptism, I don't think, is absolutely neccessary for entry into Heaven because the 'righteous thief' on the cross was allowed into Heaven. I think in John 3:5 where Jesus says "The truth is, no one can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of water and the Spirit" I think that refers to the physical birth (as when we are born from the womb-water) and the spiritual birth (as when we accept Jesus as Lord). In Acts 16:30-31 the jailor falls before Paul and Silas and it reads "He brought them out and asked, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" They replied, "Believe on the Lord Jesus and you will be saved along with your entire household" No other provisions are given for being saved. Entry into Heaven requires you to believe in Jesus as Lord and Savior and to be saved. Jesus said to be water baptised but it was for the purpose of recognizing Him publicly not as a prerequisite for entry into Heaven. |

6 | John 11:35 Why did Jesus wept | John 11:33 | TxRedBelle | 53512 | ||
Two explainations perhaps. Maybe either he empathized with them for the grief they were feeling or maybe he was sad because of their unbelief. Either way it does show that he cares for us enough to weep with us in our sorrow. I am a baby Christian so I may be wrong but that is what this verse seems to say to me. | ||||||
7 | Holy Spirit and Holy Ghost? | Rom 8:14 | TxRedBelle | 53983 | ||

8 | goodness and kindness? | Gal 5:22 | TxRedBelle | 53358 | ||
I am having trouble grasping the difference in the meanings of 'goodness' and 'kindness' as used in this and all verses I have researched. Any thoughts? | ||||||
9 | goodness and kindness? | Gal 5:22 | TxRedBelle | 53365 | ||
It does indeed help, thank you. I have found so far that the word 'goodness' always seems to refer to an attribute of God and 'kindness' seems to refer to an act performed. I think where I am getting confused is that we so easily interchange the two but in the Bible they seem to be very different. Does anyone know a verse that might void my theory? For example, a verse that might not use 'goodness' to refer to a characteristic of God? Thank you again |
