5 | what if we don't do the if | Not Specified | christian7 | 69527 | ||
KJV Acts 8:22 22. Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee. whats the if for??I find many if's in the bible and I am trying to find out what happens "if" the if is not done. ASV 2 Timothy 2:12 12. if we endure, we shall also reign with him: if we shall deny him, he also will deny us: KJV Romans 11:22 22. Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. KJV 1 Corinthians 15:2 2. By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. KJV Philippians 3:12 12. Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus. KJV Colossians 1:21-23 21. And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled 22. In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight: 23. If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister; KJV Hebrews 3:6 6. But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end. KJV Hebrews 3:14 14. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; KJV Hebrews 10:26-27 26. For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 27. But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. KJV Hebrews 10:38 38. Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. KJV 2 Peter 2:20 20. For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. could someone please elaberate on a couple of these verses as I know that salvation is eternal,so I just dont understand the if's. my thought is solid on one thing but I would like to hear your input....

7 | new earth or same earth new people | Not Specified | christian7 | 93118 | ||
I sometimes get a little confused with end time prophesy . 2 Peter 3:10. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 11. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 12. Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? It seems as though one says the earth will remain and the other that it won’t. Ps 25: 13. His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth. Ps 37: 9. For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the earth. 10. For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be. 11. But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. Proverbs 10: 30. The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth. Ecclesiastes 1: 4. One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever. I could go on but I will stop there for I hope you will understand what I am trying to understand. God Bless |

12 | Women Preachers? Yes or No? | Bible general Archive 2 | christian7 | 96372 | ||
Women Preachers yes or no...... NO Galatians 3:28. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. not to twist scripures the way we want to make them work for us. I could say that since there is niether male nor female that men could be with men and women with women and use this verse to try and win a case against it. I mean if there is no seperation then why not. But we all know that God does not mean that we are no longer opposite sex or that there are not any more Jewish people or Greek people. But God is simply saying that we are one in Christ Jesus. To try and use a verse the way you want it used to support a certain view you have does not make it right. My wife and I are one in Jesus Christ but we both know that she is a woman and I am a man. As a woman she falls under the Holy scriptures that pertain to how a woman is to be in the eyes of Almighty God. There are several verses just for her in the inspired Word of God. KJV 1 Corinthians 14:34 34. Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. KJV 1 Timothy 2:9-12 9. In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; 10. But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. 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. KJV 1 Timothy 5:14 14. I will therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the adversary to speak reproachfully. KJV Titus 2:3-5 3. The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; 4. That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, 5. To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. KJV 1 Peter 3:5 5. For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands: Now I am sure that one can not argue weather or not a woman is filled with the Holy Spirit of God but one would have the authority of scripture to say what God veiws as a womens roll in the body of Christ. KJV 2 Timothy 3:16 16. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: God Bless |

14 | Jesus name of the Father, Son and H/Ghos | Bible general Archive 2 | christian7 | 96987 | ||
I think your understanding of the "Name" in Matthew 28:18-20, as referring to Jesus, is mistaken. Many of the early church understood this as clearly Trinitarian in nature. There is only one God, hence there is only one Name. But there are three distinct Persons in the eternal Godhead, hence the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Indeed, one of the clearest Scriptural illustrations of this point can be found in the account of Jesus' own baptism. In Matthew 3:16-17 we read, "As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him. 17And a voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased." All three Persons of the blessed Trinity were simultaneously present at Jesus' baptism. The Father spoke from heaven, the Holy Spirit descended from heaven to earth, and the Son was incarnate as Jesus in the Jordan river. Now lets look at the letter Paul wrote to the Corinthians. KJV 2 Corinthians 13:14 14. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. This scripture is virtually undisputed letter of the Apostle Paul dating to around A.D. 55: the Letter is Trinitarian in form and has ever since been a part of Christian worship tradition." Tho I dont doubt from my studies in Acts that some people were not baptized in Jesus' name for from what I can understand they were. But I also believe that according to scripture that this wasn't a disbelief in the Trinity and that there is no proof that in Jesus' name was the only way they were baptized. It is my belief that the early church also baptized in " The name of the Father, and the Son(Jesus), and the Holy Spirit. One thing is for sure cajam, when I first started studing this it took me on a longer study than I had expected and that when we see that God is leading us closer to Him its all worth while. As far as I can tell we can't forsake what the bible says and take it in part but as a whole it is very clear that there is a Trinity. So I find myself doing what is written in the later part of this note as Jesus commanded in Matthew 28:19 God Bless |

15 | Jesus name of the Father, Son and H/Ghos | Bible general Archive 2 | christian7 | 97213 | ||
I have studied more on this subject. It said that when there was a new teaching or something new being declared that the people would want to know by whose authority this teaching was. Therefore when the disciples were saying repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus that they were proclaiming by the authority of Jesus. Such being the case in every scripture I read like Acts 2:38. Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. This has further helped my understanding of the sometimes confusing teaching of baptizing only by the name Jesus. God Bless |

thank you Emmaus... I have found many of the related topics as you have so pointed out as typology in the scriptures. I have read that such things were as shadows of the things that were to come. The things that stump me are, and I use this for an example, moutains represent governments unless its a specific moutain at which point I can see where it can be both ways. I will look into your web site and check for this book. I just pray that if used in the proper way, this could be of a help to my ministry. thanks again God Bless |

I might even remember to bring a pen along...... :) thanks again God Bless |

Hank... Your time spent in Dalton,Ga is starting to shine through...:) Good advice my brother in Christ and as you have pointed out some would run amuck with faulty interpretation. I am just hoping to understand some simpler words in the scriptures, as Revelation and eschatology is still yet in my prayers...:) I venture to stay away for speculation and unclear interpretation as the water in which I swim in can become very dangerous very fast. I do thank you for your truth in the fact that some or most may not agree on a certain words and their meannings. These I pray the Lord will keep from me. thank you God Bless |

20 | DL5 Thank you for your feedback, I went | Bible general Archive 2 | christian7 | 99482 | ||
trulee6 I just want to share a few scriptures with you on the freedom or liberty we have as Christians. If you stand on the Holy Word of God you will find that we are free to worship where ever we feel the true teachings of Christ Jesus is being taught. If a friend of mine for example were to tell me I can't go to a certain church because I belong to this certain church when the Church is the body of Christ anyway, then it would be the same teachings that cults teach. That is how many cults teach so that their teachings stay without question. God's freedom allows us to go to different churches. I go to a Baptist church for example and visit a "Church of God" every once in a while and it bothers my pasture none at all for the true teaching is that we have freedom to serve God. Unless someone has something to hide from you about thier teachings then why wouldn't they mind you going to visit another church? It is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that saves, not a denomination. KJV 2 Corinthians 3:17 17. Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty KJV Galatians 5:1 1. Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. KJV Galatians 5:13 13. For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. KJV 1 Peter 2:16 16. As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God. Now we know that the Word of God is true and His Spirit dwells within us, and His Holy Spirit will lead us closer to Him. So I encourage you to not be tossed around in the different teaching but to see the Truth of God where ever you go to visit. God Bless |
