1 | Those who saw Christ didn't die, how? | Not Specified | james210 | 132932 | ||
There was a thread going on with a few of us talking about how Jesus Christ is indeed God and was seen by many people here on earth (now bodily resurrected sitting in Heaven), and at the same time the Bible says that those who see God will die (Ex 3:20). Both of these are true at the same time, but is there any Biblical reference to how this works (I know with God all things are possible, so I don't question that it is, but I just want to know how)? | ||||||
2 | Cor 13:13 And now abideth faith, hope... | Bible general Archive 2 | james210 | 132192 | ||
As far as I know 'charity' is KJV for 'love'. Also, note that 'thou' was changed to 'you', 'thine' was changed to 'your', etc. | ||||||
3 | Cor 13:13 And now abideth faith, hope... | Bible general Archive 2 | james210 | 132355 | ||
Although 'charity' and 'love' are not exact synonyms in our modern day language, 'love' is the modern word for the archaic word of 'charity'. The King James Bible was translated for people in a different time and a different nation. I personally prefer it to some other translations, but some words have changed meaning slightly since their original use in that version. The point in my earlier post was that we don't go around saying 'ye' instead of 'you' because that's not the way we speak. Likewise, instead of 'charity' we say 'love. The problem exists because although 'ye' is not used in today's society, 'charity' is, but with a different meaning then the word used by the people of England hundreds of years ago. When 'charity' was used by the original translators of the KJV it best fit the Greek word. Today, 'love' is a closer translation because 'charity' has a different meaning today. |

5 | Those who saw Christ didn't die, how? | Bible general Archive 2 | james210 | 132938 | ||
I put the wrong verse number in this question (it should be Ex 33:20). I'm going to do some more research on this subject before I post it again. James |

7 | What is the light in Genesis 1:3? | Gen 1:3 | james210 | 132275 | ||
The word 'light' seems to be used in two different ways. First in Genesis 1:3 God created 'light', the electromagnetic energy that is visible to the naked eye. In Genesis 1:14-18, He seems to be referring to sources of light (sun, moon, stars) when using the term 'light'. "Let there be LIGHTS (plural)" Gen 1:14. A good analogy would be for me to turn on a light (a lamp, etc) that emits light (the actual energy that we see). It may seem strange that God created light sources after He created light, but after this age has ended, we will no longer need those light sources (sun, moon, stars) because His glory will be our light. "And the city has no need of the sun nor of the moon to give light to it, for the splendor and radiance (glory) of God illuminate it, and the Lamb is its lamp." Revelation 21:23 |

8 | Why does God send storms? | Gen 3:17 | james210 | 133149 | ||
"And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: CURSED IS THE GROUND FOR THY SAKE; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life." Genesis 3:17 (emphasis mine) "For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now." Romans 8:22 When Adam sinned, God cursed the ground. All death and suffering come from mankind's sin. This does not necessarily mean that Hurricane Ivan was sent by God specifically to kill certain people that have sinned. God could be chastening our nation so that we should repent (see Revelation 3:19). There is also the possibility that the hurricane just happened - we live in a fallen creation marred by death and suffering. Note that Satan also has the ability to control the weather - see Job 1. |

9 | Christian Voting? | Gen 47:20 | james210 | 132360 | ||
I agree with you. We should definately vote and vote Biblical principles. Even if we don't like the main two candidates running there are always Christian third party candidates. But that's a debate for another forum. | ||||||

12 | trumpet-God's voice or instrument | Ex 19:16 | james210 | 132765 | ||
Although it could be either, John describes the voice of God 'as a trumpet' in his revelation (Rev 1:10, Rev 4:1). As Reighnskye said, the trumpet is used for a call to war, and in Scripture this is confirmed (see 1 Corinthians 14:8). |

13 | Judges 19:29 When he entered his house, | Judg 19:29 | james210 | 131997 | ||
The Levite explains that the reason for sending parts of his concubine out is because of the crime that was committed It seems he wanted all of Israel to know what happened. Judges 20:6 says, "I took my concubine and cut her in pieces and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel, for they have committed abomination and [wicked] folly in Israel." It also seems to be a call to arms for Israel to inact justice on those who committed this act. The act wasn't just against the concubine, but against all of Israel. This may be why he sent out twelve pieces - one for each tribe (although, the Benjamites would not cooperate and turn over the criminals). Judges 20:8-10 explains... "And all the people arose as one man, saying, Not any of us will go to his tent, and none of us will return to his home. But now this we will do to Gibeah: we will go up by lot against it, And we will take ten men of 100 throughout all the tribes of Israel, and 100 of 1,000, and 1,000 out of 10,000, to bring provisions for the men, that when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin they may do to them according to all the [wicked] folly which they have committed in Israel." |

14 | An Admission of an Atheist | Ps 53:1 | james210 | 132179 | ||
Romans 1:20 says, "For ever since the creation of the world His invisible nature and attributes, that is, His eternal power and divinity, have been made intelligible and clearly discernible in and through the things that have been made (His handiworks). So [men] are without excuse [altogether without any defense or justification]..." Creation (the things that have been made) prove that there is a Creator. How do we know a painting has a painter? The very fact that there is a painting proves it (same for a building and a builder). He might find that argument interesting. |

15 | Can unbelievers pray to God? | Prov 28:9 | james210 | 133176 | ||
Proverbs 28 9 He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination. Psalm 66 18 If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me: Psalm 109 7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer become sin. Proverbs 15 8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight. Proverbs 15 29 The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous. Psalm 102 17 He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer. |

16 | Jesus in the flesh | Matt 1:23 | james210 | 132921 | ||
Wasn't God visible (as Jesus Christ) before He died and rose again? Indeed "[He] is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers, all things were created by him, and for him." Colossians 1:15,16 Also, you stated that Jesus existed in the heavenly realm before He came to earth. Actually, being God, He created the heavenly realm so he pre-existed that, too (John 1:1-3). |

17 | Jesus in the flesh | Matt 1:23 | james210 | 132927 | ||
I believe that we are both correct in saying that yes, anyone that sees God shall die, and that yes, Jesus Christ is God and people have seen Him. You're correct in stating that some would and will use this *apparent* contradiction to lead you down a rabbit trail. We should always take the Bible at its word, even in apparent contradictions as these. Personally, I'm not sure how to make this 'contradiction' make sense to someone who would ask me. |

19 | Jesus is God? | Matt 3:17 | james210 | 132739 | ||
Here's quite a few: "Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham was, I am." John 8:58 "I and my Father are one." John 10:30 "But if I do, though you believe not me, believe the works: that you may know and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him." John 10:38 "Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak to you I speak not of myself but the Father that dwells in me, he does the works." John 14:10 "That the glory which you gave me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one." John 17:22 "Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers, all things were created by him, and for him." Colossians 1:15,16 "For in him dwells all the fulness of the Godhead bodily." Colossians 2:9 "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seens of angels, preached to the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." 1 Timothy 3:16 "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, Has in these last days spoken to us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;" Hebrews 1:1-3 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him, and without him was not any thing made that was made." John 1:1-3 |
