1 | What light was created on day one? | Not Specified | compudex | 100250 | ||
What light was created on day one of creation since the sun and moon and stars were not created until the fourth day? Day One: Gen 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Gen 1:4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. Gen 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. Day Four: Gen 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: Gen 1:15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. Gen 1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. Gen 1:17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, Gen 1:18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. Gen 1:19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day. |

3 | When is it time to say no? | Not Specified | compudex | 111017 | ||
When do we say 'No!" to the small but steady corruption to the Word of God? In grammar when a sentence is written with pronouns in the third person it is completely legal to replace those pronouns with their respective proper personal pronouns. Example: Tom Brown is a very tall man. Then Jim said, "Is he the one playing center position on the basketball team?" Can also be written:(legally replacing the pronoun with its respective proper personal pronoun) Tom Brown is a very tall man. Then Jim said, "Is Tom Brown the one playing center position on the basketball team?" It is by context that the men in the synagogue did NOT know that Jesus was the Son of God in the following verses: (Mat 13:54 KJV) And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works? (Mat 13:55 KJV) Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? (Mat 13:56 KJV) And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things? (Mat 13:57 KJV) And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house. (Mat 13:58 KJV) And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief. Now take into consideration the following translation from the NASB: (Mat 13:54 NASB) He came to His hometown and began teaching them in their synagogue, so that they were astonished, and said, "Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers? (Mat 13:55 NASB) "Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not His mother called Mary, and His brothers, James and Joseph and Simon and Judas? (Mat 13:56 NASB) "And His sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this man get all these things?" (Mat 13:57 NASB) And they took offense at Him. But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his own household." (Mat 13:58 NASB) And He did not do many miracles there because of their unbelief. When the NASB capitalized some of the pronouns, changing "his mother", "his brothers" and "his sisters" to "His mother", "His brothers" and "His sisters" thus giving the pronouns the connotation of divinity we should be able to replace the pronouns with their respective proper personal pronoun. This would give us the following translation for Mat 13:55, 56: "Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not the Son of God's mother called Mary, and the Son of God's brothers, James and Joseph and Simon and Judas? And the Son of God's sisters, are they not all with us? Where then did this man get all these things?" By capitalizing these pronouns it compromises the true meaning of these verses. It changes the aspect that the men of the synagogue DID know who it was teaching them. And since the NASB also inserted quote marks even makes the corruption worse by then saying that these were the exact words of the man speaking them. If you are going to quote a man, you must quote the man. Grammatically, it is illegal to do otherwise. And in today's world you could get sued for doing so. This type of translation corrupts the very meaning of the context of these verses. Ascribing divinity to a quote when it was not intended. Do we care about these minor little things that will eventually become the norm? Or should we just stand by and say nothing? No malice is intended and any answers to this should also bare this in mind. compudex |

4 | Ten Commanments revisited. | Not Specified | compudex | 111958 | ||
Hello it's me again, (Rev 18:4 KJV) And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. Who is the "her"? Why is the feminine pronoun used? And what do we do with, "Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins"? What association are we to have with her? Very explicitly, compudex |

Since I see the rest of this forum is hesitant to speak on this issue, I will. I will NOT let the Word of God be perverted! If your continue to live in a same sex relation you are not a Christian! Your lifestyle is an abomination to God! God said, And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the LORD am holy.. Lev 20:26 I am amazed at how fast we turn to the pressures of the world and forget God. Is the Word of God without affect? Do we adhere to the laws of man first or of God first? Does not the Scriptures teach us that men sexually active with men and women sexually active with women are an abomination to the Lord? From the beginning this behavior has been condemned by God: Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them. (this applies to women also) Did God take the rib from Adam and make Bruce? Or was the rib taken from woman? And this practice is still condemned today: Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient... Rom 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. 1Co 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 1Co 6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. Now, I have written these things to you so you may know that this type of behavior is unacceptable in the kingdom of God. Now, you have the knowledge and the truth. Now, you are without excuse. Separate yourself from this association. Exhort the brethren and lift them up and remind them of the Gospel that was first preached to you. Rev 2:29 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. Be a servant of Christ first! This really is not a racial thing. |

8 | What are the different types of worship? | Bible general Archive 2 | compudex | 111075 | ||
Greetings Vala, Psa 29:2 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. First, God is Holy and that demands reverence. Whatever you do in the name of the Lord with that in mind is worship. That could also included a terrible amount of joy which is sometimes hard to contain. And that is worship, too. David danced naked in front of the Lord. You could be a Holy-Roller, that is worship. You could be very proper and quiet, that also is worship. Jesus said, If you love me you will keep my commandments, that also is worship. Whatever is right and you do is worship. There is nothing you can do with God in your heart and mind that does not please Him. In this context all is worship. compudex |

Greetings lisakb, Gen 17:1-22 Gen 17:4 As for me, behold, my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be the father of a multitude of nations. Gen 17:5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for the father of a multitude of nations have I made thee. Gen 17:15 And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be. Gen 17:16 And I will bless her, and moreover I will give thee a son of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples shall be of her. God said, "Behold, my covenant is with thee..". That makes it personal. As we, personally, today enter into a covenent with Jesus by accepting Him as Saviour, we too, get a new name. Not our christian name, but a new name written down in the Lamb's Book of Life.(Phi 4:3)(Rev 2:17)(Rev 3:5)(Rev 21:27) It was a sign to Abram and Sarai of a new covenant that was established between them by God Himself. Peace to you! |

15 | "...sin against God?" | Gen 39:9 | compudex | 102113 | ||
Hello Glenn, Joseph was from a house of nobility. Father - Jacob. Grandfather - Isaac Great Grandfather - Abraham He was raised knowing the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Honoring family and friends. And no doubt the tale of the sinful promiscuous activity that was performed in Sodom and Gomorra, were passed down as fact from generation to generation, so was the act of God's wrath against such activity was passed on. And the fact that Sodom and Gomorra were destroyed by God would be proof in the pudding that that type of activity was sin unto God. Joseph's Great Grandfather, Abraham, witnessed this. As to Joseph's character: (Gen 39:2) And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. "And Joseph was a goodly person.." (Gen 39:6) And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was a goodly person, and well favoured. My grade?: A B C D F Peace! |

Dear Emmaus, You have not answered the question. The question has to do with the Decalogue not catechism. "Thou shall not MAKE unto thee any graven image...thou SHALL NOT BOW DOWN to them...". Would this also include statues of humans? God gave Moses the Ten Commandments, He wrote them in stone and now all of a sudden they are "telescoped" into one. What have you done with the Word of God? Yes, I sucked you into this discussion because many of your answers to this forum are from catechism and NOT from the Word of God. The forum's foundational law is NOT to push ones denomination and this you have done repeatedly. Therefore a denominational complaint will be filed with the Lockman Foundation.

19 | differece between tithes and first fruit | Lev 27:30 | compudex | 111104 | ||
Greetings olaoluwa, DEFINITIONS: FIRST-FRUITS, n. 1. The fruit or produce first matured and collected in any season. Of these the Jews made an oblation to God, as an acknowledgment of his sovereign dominion. 2. The first profits of any thing. In the church of England, the profits of every spiritual benefice for the first year. 3. The first or earliest effect of any thing, in a good or bad sense; as the first-fruits of grace in the heart, or the first-fruits of vice. TITHE, n. The tenth part of any thing; but appropriately, the tenth part of the increase annually arising from the profits of land and stock, allotted to the clergy for their support. Tithes are personal, predial, or mixed; personal, when accruing from labor, art, trade and navigation; predial, when issuing from the earth, as hay, wood and fruit; and mixed, when accruing from beasts, which are fed from the ground. Example 1: A farmer: First-fruit: When the first apples mature on the trees. Tithe: One tenth of the harvest for that season. Example 2: A worker: First-fruit: Their first paycheck for that year. Tithe: One tenth of all their earnings for the year. These are just simple examples, the older Levitical Laws were much more complicated. Frist-fruit appears to deal more with what the ground brings forth. First-fruits and tithes were brought to the House of the Lord for the Levites so they would not be burdened with daily chores but could then devote all their time in their service to the Lord. The Levites did not receive any "land or real estate" inheretance in the Promised Land as the other tribes did. Their inheretance was The House of the Lord and to serve Him. SCRIPTURE: Tithes: Lev 27:30 And all the tithe of the land, whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the LORD'S: it is holy unto the LORD. Lev 27:31 And if a man will at all redeem ought of his tithes, he shall add thereto the fifth part thereof. Lev 27:32 And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the LORD. Lev 27:33 He shall not search whether it be good or bad, neither shall he change it: and if he change it at all, then both it and the change thereof shall be holy; it shall not be redeemed. First-fruits: Deu 26:2 That thou shalt take of the first of all the fruit of the earth, which thou shalt bring of thy land that the LORD thy God giveth thee, and shalt put it in a basket, and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to place his name there. Hope this helps. It is a fasinating study which gets quite involved. Eph 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour. compudex |

20 | Am I going to Heaven | Deut 23:2 | compudex | 105150 | ||
Dear stonerocker, (about Deut 23:2; many are unclear about this, some say that it means serving in the congregation or the tabernacle with the Levites) For by the LAW none will be saved. "For all we like sheep have gone astray. There is none good, no not one." Christ came not to do away with the law but to fulfill the law. He is the fulfillment of the law in that what we could not do under the law He did. Therefore rendering Him sinless. And, as a sinless sacrifice on Calvary, He became the offering to the Father for ALL of us. Your concern is very important. You have a desire to do what is right and ask this question. As our Lord says, "Let not your heart be troubled, if you believe in God, believe in me also." First things first. God DOES NOT LIE!!!! Isa 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. Here, Isaiah is talking about the coming of the Messiah, Christ Jesus, who will take away the sins of the world. Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Joh 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. Above we see three (3) phrases that are the MOST important. 1. whosoever believeth 2. sent not 3. to condemn And finally the results of that promise..."should not perish, but have everlasting life." But, mainly the very point of all this is up to you. Do you believe? This question that everyone must answer is the solution. Peace to you, compudex |
