1001 | MIXED MARRIAGES ? | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 49302 | ||
There is no Scripture that specifically speaks against marrying other races. What is Scriptural however is that believers shouldn't mix mariage with unbelievers. Believers should only marry believers. |
||||||
1002 | Married priests? | Luke 1:5 | New Creature | 48800 | ||
I would rather see a priest who is married and straight, rather than the many we hear about today who commit acts of sodomy with young boys. | ||||||
1003 | when te sons of God came | Gen 6:4 | New Creature | 48648 | ||
I don't think you understood what I said. First of all angels don't marry or pro-create. Mt 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. When Gen. 4:6 speaks of the "sons of God" it isn't referring to angels. It is merely a reference to humans who are believers in the Lord |
||||||
1004 | when te sons of God came | Gen 6:4 | New Creature | 48641 | ||
"sons of God" in that text refers to believers. as you continue reading that verse you will see mentioned "the daughters of men" the "daughters of men" are the unbelieving unsaved. What was happening was that the believers were marrying unbelievers. God's intention is that believers marry believers, not unbelievers I personally believe many people try to make this portion of Scripture more difficult than God intended it to be, by complicating it. |

1005 | Law and Christ vs Law or Christ? | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 48640 | ||
Pauls asked believers the following question concerning "law and grace" Romans 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. |
||||||
1006 | when do I spake in tounges | Acts | New Creature | 48639 | ||
Paul said: 1 Cor. 12:31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.(The more excellent way is love - 1 Cor. 13) Paul told us to "covet earnestly the best gifts" So even Paul knew that some of the spiritual gifts were to be more useful and more desirable than gifts like tongues. Then Paul said: 1 Cor. 14:39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. Paul said to covet to prophesy. I don't think He said to covet tongues. However Paul concluded by saying "forbid not to speak with tongues" Covet and fobid not are key here, don't you agree? |
||||||
1007 | Law or grace or both? | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 48637 | ||
Paul asked the following question concerning law and grace. Romans 6:15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. For the New Testamnet believer the law is etched upon the fleshly tables of his heart instead of upon stone tablets The law is the believers delight and desire and is not burdonsome to us. The law is only burdonsome to the unbelieving lawless people Those who live by grace delight to do His will and naturally obey the law, because they have GRACE MOTIVATED OBEDIENCE Titus 2:11 For THE GRACE OF GOD that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12 TEACHING US THAT, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, WE SHOULD LIVE soberly, righteously, and GODLY, in this present world; |

1008 | who is being warned | 1 Cor 10:5 | New Creature | 48634 | ||
"have eternal life" as you mentioned is present tense. The future tense of eternal life depends on abiding or remaining in Christ. (see John 15) He that endureth till the end the same shall be saved. We need to go the distance. to persevere. | ||||||
1009 | when do I spake in tounges | Acts | New Creature | 48611 | ||
Paul asked" 1 Cor. 12:30 do all speak with tongues? And of course the obivious answer to Pauls question is No. tounges in fact is the gift that is to be least desired of the gifts of the Spirit. Paul said I would that ye rather prophesied 1 Cor. 14:5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater [is] he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying. 1 Cor. 14:1 desire spiritual [gifts], but rather that ye may prophesy. tounges is for self edification |

1010 | Are we still under the Ten Commandments? | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 48609 | ||
Are we to still abide by the 10 commandments? Let me see: One of those commandments says: Thou shalt not kill (murder) Is it ok today to murder? I hope not! Another commandment says: Thou shalt not steal Is it ok today to steal? I don't think so! Another commandement says not to lie Is lying ok now? While it's rampant I think it is just as wrong today as it was when the 10 commandments were given Another commandment says not to covet Is coveting ok these days? Again I would have to say no! Should we put God first and love Him above all? I think the answer to that is also yes. Should believers honor the Sabbath day I can only speak for myself and say yes. Should we honor our mother and father? I would say yes Should we abide by the 10 commandments? I say yes we should But God gives us the desire to do so, as long as we continue in unbroken fellowship with Him. |

1011 | 1 cor 10:5-6 what kind of warning | 1 Cor 10:5 | New Creature | 48605 | ||
The Bible is full of warnings to believers. 1 Cor 10 is just one example of warning. The text says: 1Cor. 10:6 Now these things were our examples, "our" in this text means believers. We are to observe what happened to the Israelites who came out of Egypt and wandered in the wilderness. God was testing them to see whether or not their faith was sincere, and whether or not they would become obedient to God. Their disobedience became their ruin. They lusted and provoked God to anger. They committed fornication The text also says again: 1 Cor. 10:11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. we are to read in the Old Testament account of the Exodus and the 40 years of wandering in the wilderness and how only two people (a small remnant) of the hundreds of thousands who left Egypt ever entered the promise land. Those two were Joshua and Caleb. Today God still has a remnant of faithful sincere obedient followers What was written in 1 Cor. 10 is written so we don't make the same mistakes those who fell in the wilderness made Yes 1 Cor. 10 is a warning for believers |

1012 | the barren branch never was a branch? | John 15:2 | New Creature | 47678 | ||
In John 15:2 we see mentioned two types of branches. 1.) those that do not bear fruit 2.) And those that bear fruit. (we see here that both branches were already “in him”. The only difference being the one did not draw any life from either the root or the vine. It did not get nourshiment which is essential to life) 15:2 We see that the branch that “beareth not fruit” he taketh away (meaning it is removed) 15:2 And we also see that the branch that beareth fruit he “purgeth” (prunes) so that it may bring forth more fruit. |

It is also use in John 1:29 of Christ as "the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world," and the same use of the word can be found in 1 Cor. 5:2 which reads: "And ye are puffed up, and have not rather morned, that he that has done this deed might be taken away from among you." (Vine's Complete Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words) In John 15:2 the word away is used in connection with various verbs such as "take away" and is translated "away with" implying a forcible removal for the purpose of putting to death. (Vine's Complete Expository Dictionary Of Old And New Testament Words) Hope this helps Shalom |

1014 | Difference between tithes and offerings | Not Specified | New Creature | 47349 | ||
I have a question about tithes and offerings. I DON'T want to get into a long drawn out debate about how tithes are not part of the New Testament. I personally feel led by the Lord to tithe and make offerings unto the Lord. The New Testament says: "God loves a cheerful giver" I enjoy giving cheerfully from the abundance the Lord has given me, of any time, talents, and tithes. My question is: What is the difference between a tithe and an offering? I tithe 10 per-cent of my after tax with-holding net amount, but feel the desire to give beyond the 10 percent. I think anything beyond the 10 per-cent (which rightfully belongs to the Lord anyhow) is an offering. And of course I also believe it's ALL His anyways. He has just given me stewardship over all He has graciously blessed me with. So is the offering anything I give over the first 10 per-cent? |

1016 | will we die if we charge interest? | Deut 23:20 | New Creature | 47076 | ||
Basically a Christian brother or sister is not to charge interest to another Christian brother or sister. We are not to get rich or make a profit off of our brothers and sisters in the Lord. Banks are non-Christian organizations, and we cannot expect secular institutions to follow Bibical principles. The Bible principles are written as a guide to believers, not unbelievers. |

1017 | 2 Separate Groups or One? | 2 Thess 1:8 | New Creature | 46926 | ||
Question - Does the following verse mention two separate groups of people or one? It speaks of: 1) "those who do not know God" 2) "those who do not obey the gospel" Is the first group of "those" unbelievers? And is the second group of "those" believers who do not obey the gospel? 2 Thessalonians 1:8 dealing out retribution to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. (NASB) 2 Thessalonians 1:8 To deal out retribution (chastisement and vengeance) upon those who do not know or perceive or become acquainted with God, and [upon those] who ignore and refuse to obey the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

"If the devil comes to you and whispers that you are no good, don't argue with him. In fact, you may as well admit it, but then remind the devil; Regardless what you say about me, I must tell you how the Lord feels about me. He tells me that I am so valuable to Him that He gave Himself for me on the cross." (Aiden Wilson Tozer) Your worth to God is determined by the price Jesus was willing to pay to obtain your redemption. He gave His life for us. |
