3 | Humility in OUR BiIble Interpetations | Not Specified | billk | 51521 | ||
This question is begging to be asked Should we be humble in OUR personal interpetations of the Scripture? (and OUR perceived dose of the Holy Sprit's guidance) Since we are still human... Isn't it a FACT that we ALL interpet some portions of the scriptures right and some wrong? Don't all denominationa and persons miss the mark in their interpetations.... some are wrong in some beliefs and right in others... and vice versa Doesn't God and (and logic!) tell us we should be humble? |

4 | Jesus: ona donkey or chariot? | Not Specified | billk | 56536 | ||
The Jews expected a Glorious Messiah to lead them to immediate victory over the Roman oppressors (but in fact got something much much different). Do many evangelist and evangelicals repeat the error.... creating the same exaggerated expectations... the victorious Jesus. But in fact doesn't Jesus come into our lives on a donkey rather than a victory chariot??? |

5 | Will the Holy Sprit help when ........ | Not Specified | billk | 57941 | ||
I read somewhere that God/Holy Sprit will not do something for us, or intervene, if we can somehow do it ourselves... that's how we grow, through suffering etc. It makes sense to me but haven't seen anything in the Bible either way. Any opinions on this pro or con, or bibcal references that may address this issue. |

6 | PRECISELY, what is the new covenant | Not Specified | billk | 58005 | ||
The discussion on our "obligations" to God under the New Testament got me to start thinking legally because obligations is a legal term and a covenant is a legal contract. So, in precise terms: Exactly what is God's New Contract (covenant) with us? What are our obligations? What are God's. In legal terms, is God's offer a free gift? |
||||||
7 | Politics in NT times? | Not Specified | billk | 60471 | ||
Do you think the writers of the New Testament practice a variation of office politics? Was there Infighting? Powerplays? Gossip? Insinuations? Did they always practiced what they wrote about? I'm thinking of Paul and James in particular. Does it show a lack of faith to ask such a question? |

8 | Is salvation that difficult? | Bible general Archive 1 | billk | 51088 | ||
Salvation is easy (it's unearned!) but following Christ (Paul's race) is difficult. The Bible doesn't contradict itself, but it has some more than a few paradoxes and opposing tensions. Your embryo metaphor makes the opposite point of of Jesus's own seed parable.... seeds on rocky soil, shallow roots etc. Growth is needed would seem to be the point. But I'm sure there are umteen verses in Galations and Romans that would easily counter that point. My yoke is easy?....... Hmmm. |

9 | Is salvation that difficult? | Bible general Archive 1 | billk | 51177 | ||
I'm a realatively new Christian( a year), and as I said, I do believe salavation is easy.... but, lets face it...the Bible sends mixed signals on the subject. I've enjoy and respect people like Dietrich Bonhoffer and John Macarthur but I think thier views on "cheap grace" miss the mark... decipleship is not the "heart" of the New testament... Grace is. That's one of the weirdest paradoxes. MY sense is that the closest thing to heaven on earth is thru the Law and obedience (Psalm 119).... but it has little to do with real heaven and real salvation... it just gives us a taste of it. But even the taste makes it well worth it. |

12 | 2ond most important book in your life? | Bible general Archive 1 | billk | 51539 | ||
Funny, you mentioned a prayer jornal, I was thinking of keeping a journal/list of the virtual mirales God has done for me when I REALLY do trust him and depend on him... but I always tell myself...I won't forget.... I won't get complacent again .... I can't even imagine drifting back to "me".... but... I inevitably do. Then, once again, I dig myself in a deep hole... and return back to God... and the cycle begins again. Sounds like the Old Testament in a nutshell. |

15 | degrees of heaven? | Matt 5:19 | billk | 51280 | ||
Should this be verse seen as confirmation that such people will got to heaven but that they will be ranked lowly. It seems odd that heaven will have different levels of satisfaction and dissatisfaction. | ||||||
16 | What is Jesus's point? Perfectionism? | Matt 5:48 | billk | 51332 | ||
What is Jesus's point? Perfectionism? Since the context of the verse(prior commands, etc) are law oriented not faith/grace oriented.... isn't this Old Testament(sons of Haggar/slavery) teaching ? If we literally tried to follow this command (and not the sprit of the entire new convenant) would we "miss the mark" ? |

18 | Jesus: ona donkey or chariot? | John | billk | 56579 | ||
I have I ask the question because on one hand I keep a list of miracles, small and large, that God has performed in my life... and I am amazed On the other hand, on nights when I have a hard time sleeping due to worries, I picture Jesus, in those last days, entering Jerusalem on that donkey. For some odd reason I find this humble image vastly reassuring of how Jesus is fulfilling his many astounding( not-so-humble) promises for my life if I follow him... that brings me to peaceful, deep sleep.....without fail Your answer is extraordinarily comprehensive, insightful and more importantly...balanced. You have made me sin; I covet your wisdom, clear thinking and writing. |

19 | Jesus: ona donkey or chariot? | John | billk | 56597 | ||
.....not bad for someone born in a barn I think some of his (and the Holy Sprit's) greatest victories with me have been slow and silent, you don't even realize what's happening or even when it was completed.... it's so gradual. But you wake up one day and it occurs to you... it did happen... your heart has changed!!! ... that is SWEET victory...praise the lord |
