To “my knowledge” there isn’t any verse to back this up and it is the policy of the forum, seeing that it is a Bible study forum, that one back up obscure statements with a chapter and verse from Scripture. CDBJ |

107 | SEARCHING FOR THE TRUTH | Matt 5:17 | CDBJ | 223129 | ||
Greetings, The Ten Commandments could be likened in this day and age to one who has just fallen out of an air plane and since he is blind he doesn’t know what his problem is. The Commandments are screaming in his ear that he headed for the ground and there is nothing anyone can do to save him, with the exception of God and he better start calling for Him to help before it’s too late. When one finally realizes that God sent Jesus to be our help in time of need, i.e. the one who paid our price and He can provide a soft landing, “IF” we will call on and depend on Him; then the Commandments have done what the were intended to accomplish. Romans 7:7-25 What shall we say then? Is the Law sin? May it never be! On the contrary, I would not have come to know sin except through the Law; for I would not have known about coveting if the Law had not said, "YOU SHALL NOT COVET." 8But sin, taking opportunity through the commandment, produced in me coveting of every kind; for apart from the Law sin is dead. 9And I was once alive apart from the Law; but when the commandment came, sin became alive, and I died; 10and this commandment, which was to result in life, proved to result in death for me; 11for sin, taking opportunity through the commandment, deceived me, and through it killed me. 12So then, the Law is holy, and the commandment is holy and righteous and good. 13Therefore did that which is good become a cause of death for me? May it never be! Rather it was sin, in order that it might be shown to be sin by effecting my death through that which is good, that through the commandment sin might become utterly sinful. 14For we know that the Law is spiritual; but I am of flesh, sold into bondage to sin. 15For that which I am doing, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate. 16But if I do the very thing I do not wish to do, I agree with the Law, confessing that it is good. 17So now, no longer am I the one doing it, but sin which indwells me. 18For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh; for the wishing is present in me, but the doing of the good is not. 19For the good that I wish, I do not do; but I practice the very evil that I do not wish. 20But if I am doing the very thing I do not wish, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me. 21I find then the principle that evil is present in me, the one who wishes to do good. 22For I joyfully concur with the law of God in the inner man, 23but I see a different law in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind, and making me a prisoner of the law of sin which is in my members. 24Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death? 25Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, on the one hand I myself with my mind am serving the law of God, but on the other, with my flesh the law of sin. The object of the Commandments is to show us “we are helpless” and to bring us to Jesus for salvation; the Commandments were the law that is to direct us to Christ. Romans 10:4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. Notice it’s only the end for those that fully trust in Jesus Christ, God’s appointed one! CDBJ |

108 | Becoming a christian | John 6:37 | CDBJ | 222899 | ||
Well for starters; If Water baptism has anything to do with ones salvation then the apostle John has misinformed all those that read his gospel. John 20:30-31 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: 31But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name. No mention of water baptism and the totality for John writing the book was to inform us how to have eternal life, not to mention the following. John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Again not baptism! John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. Either John was very forgetful, disobedient to the leading of the Holy Spirit when penning the Word, or it isn’t a must within the confines of Salvation in Jesus. He made the same mistake again when he wrote his first epistle; Tongue in cheek! 1 John 5:10-13 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 11And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. 13These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. Paul must have been consumed by the same malady, the neglect of water baptism. Ephes. 1:12-14 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ. 13In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. Ephes. 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9Not of works, lest any man should boast. There again the neglect of baptism. Any one who tries to add his own personal efforts, which “includes water baptism” along with the numerous other things that people include “for salvation”, are nullifying the function of total faith in the finished work of Christ on the cross and the plan of God. Therefore they are not saved by grace through faith ALONE in “Christ alone” seeing they are having faith in their baptism in addition to what God has done for them in Jesus: Thus canceling the fundamental of true faith and their eternal life in Christ! Being baptized in water for salvation makes about as much sense as having a free ride on a jet plane going 600 MPH; then stepping out the door of the plane at 35000 feet to try and help speed it up by pushing. Jesus did it all! John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. Matthew 7:13-14 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Matthew 7:21-23 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Is there any work that man can do to please God when it comes to salvation? This is it: John 6:28-29 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? 29Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

Greetings, According to Scripture one is already a Christian before they can even be baptized, other wise it “isn’t a meaningful” baptism. Acts 8:35-38 Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. 36And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; (When should one be baptized) what doth hinder me to be baptized? (Answer, i.e. condition) 37And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. (Believe what; that Jesus is God’s appointed one even the very Son of God Himself) And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. (Result) 38And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. Baptism is the first thing one can do in obedience to the Father as a new born child of the family of God. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Greetings, That doesn’t mean you lost your salvation, what it means is that you were out of fellowship and missed out on numerous blessings that could have been yours but now they are gone for time and eternity. Since Hebrews is the book of discussion consider this; Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. Many time we do thing that a responsible son shouldn’t do but we are sons none the less because we are born of the father. (We don’t have to ask God if He will forgive us,) He has already told us that he would if we will do our part and name the sins to Him. It’s our responsibility to confess the sins that we have committed in order to be reinstated to a place of fellowship therefore not quenching of grieving the Spirit. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. The word “confess” comes to us from the Koine Greek word “HOMOLOGEO” and it means to site as in a courtroom case and admit to the guilt. God say that if we own up to our disobedience that He will forgive us due to the basis of His character; it all points to grace!!!!!! We are not always faithful but God is and He is just in forgiving us because of what Jesus did for our sins. God doesn’t forgive on the basis of our actions but because of His grace and what His Son did for us. It pays to keep short accounts with the Lord and stay in a position of continuous fellowship. 1 John 1:4-10 And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full. 5This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 7But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 8If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. 1 John 2:1 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: Some of the most miserable people in the world are believers out of fellowship while some of the happiest people in the world are believers in fellowship. 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

111 | does this mean a person is unforgiven | NT general | CDBJ | 222583 | ||
Greetings, These verses; Hebrews 6:4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame. These verses are pointing out the futility of the thinking of some believers that assume they can fall away and then be, as it were, resaved. The verses in Hebrews are saying it’s impossible because they would have to actually crucify Christ a second time which is impossible. It is actually the epitome of arrogance to assume that one could commit a sin so great that Jesus didn’t pay for it by what He did on the cross! It’s like saying He didn’t think of it or something along that line. CDBJ |

Greetings and welcome to the forum. You might be thinking of the following that was spoken by Paul before his departure. 2 Tim. 4:7-8 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: 8Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

Greetings DannyD and welcome to the forum, In answer to your question I would say that the following verse would likely be the most pertinent when it come to telling the truth from “my point of view”. Liars being those that don’t tell the truth, as it were; God put them in a very precarious category! Rev. 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. It is generally understood that the forum doesn't get involved with home work assignments seeing that this would be a deception: I hope you haven't caused me to go against this concept? CDBJ |

116 | Can God see into the future? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 222374 | ||
Greetings and I hope you enjoy the forum. The first mention of this situation was a general statement and later the full stipulation is brought to the forefront. From the (Bible Knowledge Commentary) 4. THE REJECTION OF THE PRIESTHOOD (2:27-36) 2:27-36. It is no wonder that God rejected the priesthood of Eli and his sons. After reviewing the circumstances of the selection of Eli’s ancestors to be priests of the LORD over Israel (vv. 27-28), an unnamed man of God announced to Eli that his priesthood would end because it had violated the conditions for its ongoing existence (vv. 29-33). Yet the LORD would not terminate the office of priest altogether for He would raise up… a faithful priest (v. 35) whose line of succession (house) would be firmly established and who would minister before His anointed one (i.e., the king) forever. In human terms this was fulfilled when the priesthood was taken from Abiathar, descendant of Aaron’s son Ithamar, and given to Zadok, descendant of Aaron’s son Eleazar (1 Kings 2:27, 35). But in the ultimate sense the “faithful Priest” and “Anointed One” are One and the same, the Lord Jesus Christ. He is both Priest and King (Ps. 110; Heb. 5:6; Rev. 19:16). CDBJ |

117 | Will we ever see God the Father? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 222372 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. With the following passage in mind the answer is yes. Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. The key here is the pure in heart. Only those that have put “all of their hope” for eternal life in the person and work of God’s Son, Jesus Christ, will experience this fantastic advantage. 2 Cor. 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Have you come to this point yet in your spiritual walk where you know for sure that you have eternal life? Have a great day, CDBJ |

That’s what its saying. Rev. 7:5-8 Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. 6Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. 7Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand. 8Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand. Romans 11:25-27 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. 26And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: 27For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

Rafiki23, Your question has set for quiet sometime now and apart form personally digging into Scripture I believe your subject is so exhaustive that a book would be needed for the answer.

Greetings and welcome to the forum. There isn’t anything that can be done by people the answer to your question resides with the Lord. The best information I could give would be to start reading in Matthew which is the first book of the “New Testament” and continue right through to Revelation and ask the Lord to reveal the truth that is contained within its pages. With mankind it’s imposable but with God all thing are possible. I’m not going to tell you that what she is experiencing is a sin because the fact is we are all sinners in God’s sight, and one persons sins aren’t any more refined then someone else’s. What might shock some people that are self righteous wouldn’t even hold a candle to what God calls the seven worst sins. Get her reading God’s Word, the Bible and let God do the fixing and it will last! CDBJ |
