This statement was made recently. "Since Christ paid the price for our sin on the cross. no more animal sacrifice for sin is acceptable." 1 Is this a true statement? 2 Did God honor the sacrifices made by the Jewish people, until the destruction of the Temple? 3 Will God again honor the sacrifices of the Jewish people when they are reinstated, after the rebuilding of the Temple?

Dear newyorker626 This is the short answer to your question. I thought you might like to hear from Gods' own mouth why He said these things to them. Once there you can read the whole story. 1 And God spake all these words, saying, 2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. 3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: 5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. Deu 7:1 When the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou; 2 And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them: 3 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son. 4 For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly. 5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire. 6 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth. 7 The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people: 8 But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. 9 Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations; 10 And repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face. 11 Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which I command thee this day, to do them. 12 Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the LORD thy God shall keep unto thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware unto thy fathers: 13 And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee. 14 Thou shalt be blessed above all people: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle. 15 And the LORD will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee. 16 And thou shalt consume all the people which the LORD thy God shall deliver thee; thine eye shall have no pity upon them: neither shalt thou serve their gods; for that will be a snare unto thee.

Dear Humility It isn't just the fact we see Jesus going in among the publicans and the sinners. "Why do you do it" was the question that was asked of Him by the Pharisee, they were judging the publicans as unworthy because they were sinners. The Pharisee concidered themselves as righteous. But in reality were they truly righteous? We become the Pharisee when we do the same as they did, (judging). The answer that Jesus gave to them is what we should base our ministry to others on, not the appearance. Matt.9:9-13 9 And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him. 10 And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples. 11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners? 12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick. 13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. Luk 15:1-7 1 Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him. 2 And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. 3 And he spake this parable unto them, saying, 4 What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? 5 And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing. 6 And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. 7 I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. You are correct in saying They had been forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia. You have also said "I should be willing to go where ever the sinners lodge but not unless the Holy Spirit bids me." Do you see the basic difference in these two occasions? The Apostles were willing to go any where, any time. The Holy Spirit had to forbid them to go to Asia, THAT IS BEING LED OF THE SPIRIT. Jesus has already told us to go minister. BEING TOLD AGAIN IS NOT BEING LED. Mar 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. There were no stipulations by Jesus put on that commission. When you are truly Led of the Spirit, He will speak through you, and He will cause a crowed to be around you to hear the Gospel, because you will have become a vessel fit for use in the Masters Kingdom.

Dear Humility Your use of Rom. 8:14 as being led of the Spirit to minister is not correct. That passage is speaking about you personally, your walk with the Lord, and not walking in the flesh. I cannot think of a verse that says the Holy Spirit will lead you to minister at a certain time, place. Walk in his Love YenIsaRap |

Dear Val Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Salvation was not available to mankind, until the Atoning Sacrifice made by Jesus. What source have you used for your definition? "Salvation means believing God" Where would one find in the Bible, people were saved in this manner? "In the old testament people were saved by looking forward to the birth of Christ" Blessings in Jesus YenIsaRap |

Dear Brad If you would, could you explain how was a Jew saved, prior to Christ's atonement, proselyte or not? Was it by the works of the Law? For as our beloved brother Paul has said. Rom 9:31,32 31) But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath not attained to the law of righteousness. 32) Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone; Gal 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Gal 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. Heb 10:4 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. Heb 9:15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

Dear Brad I'm terribly sorry for my mistake, please excuse me. I was under the impression that the question was about Jews being saved, in some way before Jesus. But now I see the whole question was about, the Few Righteous people throughout the Bible like Abram. But wasn't he a non Circumcised Gentile at the time he was declared Righteous by God.? Your using (Rom.4) as your source, where the name is Abraham, in an account after the fact, take a look in the old Test. Gen 15:6 And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness. Gen 17:5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee. Were not all of the others such a Able, Enoch, Noah weren't they also of the Uncircumcision, (Gentiles). Then the rest, those that were in the loins of "Abraham". These are the ones that we can call Jews. Heb 11:12,13 12) Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable. 13) These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. They died in faith of the promises to come, not having received them. But not in the Faith that is of Salvation. Blessings YenIsaRap |

Dear Brad Sorry it is apparently my fault.:-/ You say "The OT saint looked forward to the Christ and the cross" But your only scripture that backs up your statement, is New Test. (John 8:58) And that is a statement made by Jesus about Himself, which does not saying anything at all, about the beliefs of the Old Test. Jewish Nation. The thing that is lacking, is the Old Test. scripture that states, there WAS SALVATION afforded to the Jewish People before Jesus became our sacrifice. The only thing they were given was the Law, which was to lead them to the knowledge they needed a Savior, because no one gains Righteousness by the works of the Law. Another scripture, that would shed a lot of light on this subject, would be the one that says the Jewish People were looking for a Savior, someone that would save them from their sins. They had the Law, that they believed they could keep. They had no need for a Savior. They were looking for a Messiah, the definition of which does not say (Savior). Anointed, Consecrated, King, or Priest, which is what the definition does say. (Strong's) You ask "Are you saying Jews were not saved in the OT?" "Yes" I have not to this point, seen any evidence to the contrary. When statements are made like VAL "In the old testament people were saved by looking forward to the birth of Christ." That requires a Scripture to back it up. Without Scripture, it is nothing more than a supposition, assumption. Could you answer these for me? 1) If you would, could you explain how was a Jew saved, prior to Christ's atonement, proselyte or not? 2) Was it by the works of the Law? Be Blessed YenIsaRap |

Dear Brad Thank you for the time you have spent, nice discussion:-) Could you please, answer one more question if you would? Where, and When did this Theology, Doctrine, Belief originate, Who was the first one to put it into a comprehensive Teaching? I say Teaching because all of you haven't come to this understanding individually. There must be some book somewhere that has the thoughts of the original author. I am curious, as I would personally like to do, an in depth study on this subject, rather than debate it without the cohesive, contextual chain of thought, originally intended, by the author. Attempting to learn a subject through debate, would be likened to building a house, by starting with the blueprints for the second story, and completely omitting the Plumbing, and Electrical blueprints altogether. You have no Idea, as to how I have grown in the Lord, since my coming to the Forum, this has truly been a learning place for me, I fully believe the Lord led me here, and has stretched me greatly. As always Be blessed YenIsaRap |

Dear Val Sorry, but the table has already been cleared. I don't know what I did to make you feel so much anger. I Humbly apologize, please forgive me? I did ask you two questions that you haven't answered as yet. If you do not like to be asked where your information comes from, then post it to start with. Otherwise I will assume you are just speculating on the issue being discussed. We should always strive to provide the appropriate scripture, thereby lending credence to our statements.

Dear Val Yes there is a need to apologize, I'm sorry, for whatever it was, I did it unintentionally. 1) What source have you used for your definition? "Salvation means believing God" 2) Where would one find in the Bible, people were saved in this manner? "In the Old Testament, people were saved by looking forward to the birth of Christ" I have taken note that, within your profile you say. "You have a certificate for vacation bible school when I was one year of age." While you may think that your profile is appropriate, it does not give any information at all about your background. There isn't any information from you, that would allow anybody to measure how detailed an answer needs to be for you. I feel an answer should be given that would answer the question, rather than attempting to answer to a persons intellect. Including scripture where necessary, to verify, or even to speak the truth that is being put forward. It is better to let God do the work, for which His word is sent. He is fully capable of teaching the hearers. I am only assuming that by saying background you meant, Church affiliations I have had, or do have now. As well as my Theological, and Doctrinal Beliefs, maybe even what Teachers, Authors I admire. Are those the things you mean, I should consider placing in my profile? Then consider it considered:-) Be Blessed YenIsaRap |

18 | Supportive scripture for woman preachers | NT general | YenIsaRap | 218303 | ||
Dear Messiah'schild In regard to your questions. " Supportive scripture for woman preachers, Scripture reference for women to preach." There are no scriptures in support of this phenomenon in the churches of today. But Paul had something to say about women in positions of authority that one could apply to the question of whether or not a woman should be allowed into the position of a preacher. 1Ti 2:11,12 11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. Then the question arises as to why not? 1Ti 2:13,14 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. IMHO that answers it God Bless YenIsaRap |

19 | Women are to be silent? | NT general | YenIsaRap | 218356 | ||
Dear Justme As far as I can see, the scriptures that I posted were not of a cultural nature. Women were not allowed to minister in the Temple, why? God set up the pattern for His service, not the culture. He could have included women at that time if He wanted it to be that way. After all it was in His service, and it still is today. When scripture says that a woman shall not to usurp authority over the man, I take it to mean a Woman was never given Authority the way Man was. As far as denominations not washing feet anymore. Was that ever taught by Jesus as something that should be done? Whereas Paul spoke directly to the question of women's position in the church. Women in ministry in the 19 century, was something that did take place as you say, but we do not know the circumstances surrounding those instances. When you say "When a men does not or won't step up to the Biblical leadership of the church, then should women just say they are helpless and let the evangelism of souls to Christ go undone?" By making that statement you have taken God completely out of the equation. Souls will be won for Christ in His timing, not because woman stepped in, when a man was negligent. God will deal with the man. Joh 6:44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. Joh 6:65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father. Joh 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. But a woman saying if I don't do it, it will not get done, is nothing more than PRIDE. In the 21st.. century, there is a difference, when a woman goes to seminary to obtain a licence to Preach. That then becomes an issue of culturally equal rights for women. Do we, or should we let culture (society) dictate to the Church in such matters? Aren't those rights protected by the Constitution, as far as the freedom of religion? Here are some other scriptures which add to my argument, I have posted both to keep a continuity of thought. (context) 1Ti 2:11,12 11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. 12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. 1Ti 2:13,14 13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve. 14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. 1Co 11:7-10 7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. 8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. 9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man. 10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels. What was the reason woman was created? Gen 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. We can see right from the beginning, woman was not created equal. Women singing solos, or taking care of the nursery, does not usurp authority, they are beyond the context of Paul's statement. In love, respect and peace, YenIsaRap |

20 | Women are to be silent? | NT general | YenIsaRap | 218358 | ||
Dear AWilliamson Thank you for the reply. I agree with everything you have stated, sorry if I gave the impression women are inferior. If you have come to that conclusion by my statement "from the beginning, woman was not created equal" I posted that belief because of the scripture I cited. Gen 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. She was created as a help meet for the man. A help meet does not have equality as far as I am concerned. This does not mean he should Lord it over her, but in this context we are talking about husband and wife, not men and women in general. Man on the other hand was created for fellowship with God, but that doesn't make him equal with God does it? Let me ask you then. Has God given authority, and responsibility in the same measure to woman as He has man? Is the woman ever a spiritual covering for the man? When is woman ever put into the position of taking responsibility for man? (brackets are mine) 1Co 11:7-10 7 For a man indeed (ought not to cover his head,) (forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God:) (but the woman is the glory of the man.) 8 (For the man is not of the woman;) (but the woman of the man.) 9 (Neither was the man created for the woman;( (but the woman for the man.) 10 For this cause ought (the woman to have power on her head) (because of the angels.) Andrew I may have misunderstood you, when you wrote. "women should have head-coverings in church gatherings" (1 Cor 11) As you can see, the scripture is not talking about literal head coverings such as Hats. If you disagree please explain the meaning of v.10 You are right about the extra-biblical additives, but it is very difficult to say anything and not use them. We are in agreement God Bless YenIsaRap |
