1 | Matt 15:26-27 What did Jesus mean? | Not Specified | dispen4ever | 208795 | ||
I'm curious as to how this question will be answered. I'm hoping that the "seasoned answerers" :-D don't jump on it too soon. To whom is Jesus speaking, and what does His observation mean? Please point to any supporting scripture for your response. "But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and cast it to dogs. And she said, Truth Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from the master's table." (Matthew 15:26-27). |

5 | Who were Jesus' main opponents during Hi | NT general | dispen4ever | 208846 | ||
Read the Book of Matthew. The leadership of the Hebrew nation opposed Him totally. They challenged and criticized Him publicly. They called for his arrest, and eventually his execution. Their denial that He was the promised Messiah resulted in the postponement of the Messianic Kingdom, and the message then going to the Gentiles. See Acts, Chapter 9. | ||||||
6 | Extent of the marriage bed undefiled? | Genesis | dispen4ever | 208787 | ||
We must not pervert the act of sexual intercouse between one married man and woman in bed. The two are designed by God to 1) reproduce and 2) enjoy each other. Any perversion of the penis-vagina act of reproduction or loving each other is off limits (much to the dismay of our hedonistic society, I'm sure.) | ||||||

8 | Mathew 5.6 | Matt 5:6 | dispen4ever | 208851 | ||
The Sermon on the Mount and the Messianic Kingdom belong to Israel. Jesus was preparing His disciples for their ministry after His departure. What does the Bible say? Matthew 10:5: "These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not. But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." What did He say to the non-Jew Canaanite woman? "I can't give to you dogs (Gentiles) that which belongs to the children" --- "that which" is the promised Messianic Kingdom. The "children" are Israel! Look at Matthew 10:7. "And as ye go, preach, saying, the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." He is instructing the 12 apostles who were chosen to announce to Jewish folk that the Messianic Kingdom (of Heaven) was ready to be implemented, then and there. In the Sermon on the Mount and in the Olivet Discourse Jesus is speaking to the 12 Apostles (and the 70 disciples who followed, the "12 plus70") about what will happen to the Jews who hear them. They shall be blessed. They shall be filled. They shall obtain. They shall see God. Each "shall" is future. The Hebrew Nation rejected Him as the Messiah, even after hearing the Good News as brought to them by the 12 plus 70. He died for them anyway, then through Paul sent the Good News to we Gentiles (eventually Peter got the hang of it when the great sheet was lowered). Go read the Pauline Epistles for your duties as a follower of Christ: To honor Him, to worship Him, to invite the Holy Spirit to lead you in paths of righteousness for HIS name's sake!. |

He was tired. He needed to talk to the Father. He needed to be separate from the din of the crowds. One could find out where Jesus was by following the dust cloud kicked up by those Jews who were walking with and behind him. | ||||||

You may want to call their attention to the fact that the 144,000 witnesses will be Jewish during the Millenial Kingdom following the Tribulation. Those who receive/believe their testimony will be martyrd for their faith. | ||||||
14 | Why was the thorn given | 2 Cor 12:7 | dispen4ever | 208848 | ||
Lest Paul should be "puffed up". Paul was one of the most learned men of his time. He had credentials beyond belief, beyond 5 masters and 5 ph.d's. Paul had a speech impediment, and was unable to write well. No one could accuse him of being "puffed up" in oratory or in his writings! When I preach I preach loud, with a firm voice, as one having authority. I print and write quite well. Paul could do neither of these. His eyesight may have been impacted, as well. See Acts Chapter 9. See also 1 Corinthians 2:3-4a and 2 Corinthians 10:10. |

I've clarified it 3 times now. Each time I click on "Preview Follow-up" it tells me I can't use a symbol or that I forgot to click note or something else, and when I go back to correct that what I have typed is gone. I'll get to it tomorrow. Studybibleforum needs to fix that glaring error. My responses were long and detailed. Right now it is past my bedtime. Just read 2 Corinthians 12:9 along with my other references. G'Nite. | ||||||

No scripture is of private interpretation. 40 men of God wrote 66 books over a period of 1500 years. The NT was written between 37 and 96 a.d. on the not-adjusted calendar. No one who is not being led by the spirit can interpret scripture. Spiritual discernment is absent. See 1 Corinthians 2:1-16. There are similar verses elsewhere (in Timothy, for example). No one can intellectualize or reason-out scripture mentally. It is futile mental gymnastics. Paul could not write well, and he could not speak well. He testifies to this himself. See 2 Corinthians 2:12. Read again 1 Corinthians 2:1-3, and 2 Corinthians 12:7-10. His eyes were impacted by the encounter on the Damascus Road. See Acts 9, Galatians 4:15 and 6:11. What are infirmities? The state of being infirm; feebleness; an imperfection or weakness; esp., an unsound, unhealthy, or debilitated state; a disease; a malady; as, infirmity of body or mind. A personal frailty or failing; foible; eccentricity; a weakness or defect. Synonym: Debility; imbecility; weakness; feebleness; failing; foible; defect; disease; malady; the state of being weak in health or body. In one commentary Paul is said to have been less than 5 feet tall, with over-sized shoulders, and a heavy black beard. His physical appearance was not appealing to those whom he challenged or witnessed to. That would place him shoulder-high to others in the Jewish leadership. He would be looking up to practically everyone he addressed. When he was alone, with his writer, he was filled with spiritual insight, wisdom, understanding, comprehension. He may have been miserably equipped in public, yet God chose him to be His messenger to we non-Jews in his magnificent letters to the church, to individuals, to all of us. I am convinced that he wrote, covertly, the Letter to the Hebrews. Why covertly? They would not have bothered to read it if they knew it was from Paul. The leadership would simply have renounced him and his letter. Sooooo sad. But these are the same guys who rejected their Messiah, Jesus! See my blog, "Spiritually Dividing". His Jewish background was quite extensive and would have called for strict training in matters of the Hebrew religion, see Acts 22:3. I submit that he was more zealous than anyone of that day. He was a Pharisee and the son of a Pharisee, Acts 23:6. He described himself as being of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews, in Philippians 3:5. He was a pupil of Gamaliel, one of the greatest teachers of the Jewish law in his day, again Acts 22:3; Galatians 1:14. He spoke Greek and Hebrew, and is identified by one commentary as being fluent in 5 languages, one of them undoubtedly Aramaic, see Acts 17:28; Titus 1:12. His training distinguished him from all the other apostles by far! His educational background was far superior! He was fitted, by birth, education, and experiences to fill a special place in the Hebrew Nation and, a very special place in the implementation of the church for we non-Jews. Hallelujah! I could go on, but this should suffice. My original post is accurate and unalterable. Blessings upon each of Thee and Thy House! |

It is equally offensive to lay a charge without supporting evidence. I would remind you that at the time of Christ and for centuries thereafter references and direct quotations were the highest form of flattery, well-received by those who read them. There was ZERO intent on my part to plagarize anyone and I resent that inference. I have been a Pastor-Teacher for many years and I quote or refernce others continuously. Please send me a line-by-line detailed list of information that you found plagaristic or offensive. johann.walter1@gmail.com Thanks! :-) |

Where in that quotation is it indicated that I posted it to promote some intellectual proweress? That is an assumption on your part, not a fact. The quoted information, revised to clarify my point, was taken from http://tinyurl.com/46g2vm. I just completed downloading an updated version of a Greek-Hebrew linear translation. Shall I quote it as a source each time I answer a question such as "did Jesus mean today you'll be with me in paradise, or did he mean someday?" Must I also quote the source of THAT quote? |
