101 | Praise the Lord! | Exodus | Cyclist | 67945 | ||
"Sister" Blessed be the name of the Lord our God! Praise be to the Lord our God! Holy is the Lord our God! I will praise Him early in the morning! I will praise Him the day long! I will praise Him when I lay down to sleep! Praise the name of the Lord! The above has nothing to do with the point I want to make, I just always open and close my postings with praise to the Lord God. There are some who enter this forum at times that stir up strife and confusion. Whether intending to or not, I don't know. I do believe that your intent is to help in any way that you can and not to stir up any kind of strife, and, I believe that your intent is to post notes or answers that are in the guidelines of this forum and the word of God. Please do not be offended by Hank's postings. He is and elder to this forum, and as far as you and one like myself are concerned, an elder in Christ. You write in your profile: "I do not go to chuch regularly but I read and study the bible everyday and am finding that, regardless of my NEWNESS to the Word, God is using me, even me, to inspire others to get to know Him!" I capitalized newness. I believe that Hank is doing his best to protect ones like you and I from them that may lead us away from the word of God. I am thankful for my elders in Christ, and, I hope that you will be to. We are all corrected at times. In Christ Jesus our Savior and Lord, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

Mommapbs, Emmaus, wannabe, angel1, Good day to you! This is the day that the Lord hath made, I will rejoice and be glad in it! Any comment on the different wording in the KJV / NASB versions; Acts 12:4 KJV "easter" / NASB "passover". I've spent most all of my Christian life in the KJV. I do agree that there should be a celebration, every day, of Christ's resurection! I have a reputation of being a zealous person though. King James Version Acts 12:4 And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people. NASB Acts 12:4 When he had seized him, he put him in prison, delivering him to four (1) squads of soldiers to guard him, intending after (2) the Passover to bring him out before the people. In Christ, Cyclist |

Brother Tim, You are welcome to jump in on any question, answer, or note that I post to the forum. Thank you for doing so. Should I disregard the KJV? My family has always celebrated the easter holiday with prayer and worship to Jesus and with easter eggs. I have always stressed to them that it is the celebration of Jesus being raised from the dead. My family knows and understands this. After reading some of the postings I must admit that I feel a little ashamed for allowing my children to color eggs at easter time. I know that those who posted these comments are not God and cannot judge anyone, no offense intended, but I would like to see, if you are willing, some more comments with regard to the easter holiday and the coloring of easter eggs, etc... Comments from you as believers with me in Jesus are important to me. That is why I am part of this forum. Please read the following scriptures. How did Paul become as those without law? How did he become as those that are weak? Are these scriptures that do not apply to the subject matter of the original posting about easter? 1 Cor 9:19 For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a slave to all, so that I may win more. 1 Cor 9:20 To the Jews I became as a Jew, so that I might win Jews; to those who are under the Law, as under the Law though not being myself under the Law, so that I might win those who are under the Law; 1 Cor 9:21 to those who are without law, as without law, though not being without the law of God but under the law of Christ, so that I might win those who are without law. 1 Cor 9:22 To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak; I have become all things to all men, so that I may by all means save some. 1 Cor 9:23 I do all things for the sake of the gospel, so that I may become a fellow partaker of it. In Christ's Love, Cyclist |

Dear Brother Tim, Please accept my apology. It was never and will never be my intent to drag any one into a disagreement or debate. I probably got a little carried away in my post to you, again, not directed at you. Please, dear brother, know that I am sorry if you felt challenged on this subject. Always in the name of Jesus, Cyclist |

Mommapbs, Thanks for this information! This is the first time that the origin of these traditions have been explained to me. Col 2:8 is the right verse for this subject. I will also read Job 36:7-12. Imagine, 43 years old and still learning! P.S. angel1 if you read this. I do ride a bicycle 120 miles per week and a motorcycle about 1000 miles per year. Thanks for caring enough to take time for me. Your brother in Christ, Cyclist |

Just a note to say have a wonderful Resurection Day! Always, your brother in Christ Jesus our Lord, Cyclist |

109 | Can Pareyr change God's plan? | Ex 32:14 | Cyclist | 54187 | ||
Good Morning daffy! Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised! How wonderful are His mercies! How marvelous are His works! Praise be to Jesus Christ who thought not of Himself but gave His life for the sins of the world! Praise Him! Praise Him! Very good question. I 've pondered this myself. I look forward to seeing some the postings on this. For now though, I find at least four recorded accounts in the Old Testament where prayer changed what God said He was going to do. See: Exodus 32:9-14, Psalms 106:40-45, Jeremiah 26:18-19, and Amos 7 the entire chapter. Again, I look forward to reading some of the postings by our more knowledgable forum members because, like yourself, when I read Romans 9 I see that God has pre-destinated and pre-ordained everything. Hope this helps a little, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

Joe, Thank you for your input! As I typed in my response to daffy, I look forward to seeing some of the postings on this, not seeking opportunity to challenge anyone or begin a debate, but, it has been a question in mind for many years. I looked in different translations because, as I typed in my answer (to daffy): "when I read Romans 9 I see that God has pre-destinated and pre-ordained everything.", I have always wondered why it is written "God changed His mind". I have always been of the mind that "I will not question the Lord my God", and still am, so I have never asked about this until now. Here are the results from the translations I looked into: NIV - "relented" NASB - "changed His mind" AMPLIFIED - "turned from" NEW LIVING TRANSLATION - "withdrew from His threat" KJV - "repented" NEW KJV - "relented from" 21st CENTURY KJV - "repented" ASV - "repented" YOUNGS LITERAL TRANS - "repenteth" DARBY - "repented" Also you write "so it is best to think of "God changing his mind" as an apparent change in time and space....." I have two things to say in response; First of all, and please, please, please do not take offense, when someone says, or types in this case, to me when discussing the word of God "so it is best to think...". I always question, Is this man's wisdom? Is there scripture to back what is being said/written? Second, I do not understand this part "...as an apparent change in time and space.....". Thanks again Joe for your post. I have read some of your posts since I've been a part of this forum, and, have learned from them. In Jesus, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

113 | How long did it take them to reached the | Num 32:13 | Cyclist | 87083 | ||
Greetings neal! With my hands lifted up, with my mouth filled with praise, and with a heart of thanksgiving I will bless the Lord my God who created the heavens and the earth and the seas and all that there is therein! Praise the name of the Lord! I don't exactly know, and I don't know of anywhere in scripture where there is any indication of how long it would have taken the Isrealites to get to the promised land had they not wondered through the wilderness. Numbers 13 tells of them spying out the promised land for the first time. It took them forty years. Read through Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers and you will find out why God made them wonder through the wilderness. Num 32:7 "Now why are you discouraging the sons of Israel from crossing over into the land which the LORD has given them? Num 32:8 "This is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land. Num 32:9 "For when they went up to the valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged the sons of Israel so that they did not go into the land which the LORD had given them. Num 32:10 "So the LORD'S anger burned in that day, and He swore, saying, Num 32:11 'None of the men who came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob; for they did not follow Me fully, Num 32:12 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite and Joshua the son of Nun, for they have followed the LORD fully.' Num 32:13 "So the LORD'S anger burned against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until the entire generation of those who had done evil in the sight of the LORD was destroyed. Joshua led them into the promised land. I hope this helps! Blessings to you in Christ Jesus, our Lord and savior, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

114 | Sacrificing his daughter? | Judges | Cyclist | 52188 | ||
Greetings Believers with me in God our Father who created all things in heaven and the earth and the seas and all that there is therein, and, in His Son Jesus Christ who gave Himself for the sins of the world, All praise and glory and honor be to God who loved us so much that He sent His only begotten Son to die in our place for our sins! I'm having difficulty finding a portion of scripure that records a man sacrificing his daughter to God. Some one had asked me about it and I cannot seem to find it. In addition, I may need some help in explaining this event so any comment you have would be helpful, I think it is in Deuteronomy. Any help? Thanks Your brother in the Lord Jesus, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

115 | Was it acceptable to the Lord? | Judges | Cyclist | 52195 | ||
2nd Samuel 22 and forum members, I will continually praise the Lord my God! He has been merciful to me and, through His Son, saved me from death! Praise you Lord my God! Is there any confirmation in scripture, or, do you, or anyone else in the forum, think (scripture refrences to support your position either way please) that this sacrifice was acceptable to the Lord? It appears that it was not required of the Lord, and, isn't it recorded in the old testament that God tells His people that they are not to sacrifice humans (anyone know where this is)? I'm having trouble explaining this. Thank you! Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually in my mouth! |

116 | Jephthah and the burnt offering? | Judges | Cyclist | 52617 | ||
Greetings Froum Members! I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever! I will sing in my heart with gladness to my God who saved me! I will sing and praise my God in my heart all day long, and, continually give thanks to Him for His Son Jesus Christ, who thought not of Himself but gave Himself as a sacrifice for the sins of the world! Blessed be the name of the Lord forever! I hope all is well with everyone! I thank God for this Forum! I have really grown since I became involved! Bless each one of you! This is a repost of a question that I asked before. I am having difficulty with Judges 11. In order to save space I will not post the entire chapter. It is the story of Jephthah who appears to have offered his daughter as a burnt offering to the Lord. I have a study bible at home. The commentary states that Jephthah could not have offered his daughter as a burnt offering because God forbids it in the book of Numbers. The commentary goes on to say that the daughter was not allowed to marry and that was the sacrifice, however, verse 39 (At the end of two months she returned to her father, who did to her according to the vow which he had made;...). This, to me, says that he did indeed offer up his daughter as he vowed. Any comments on this? I need to get back to someone who is growing and I'm having trouble explaining this. If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it? Always your brother in Christ, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

Emmaus, Praise be to the Lord our God! His mercy endures forever! I give thanks to the Lord daily for salvation through Jesus Christ! Praise be to the Lord our God! Thank you for the response to my question. Emmaus, I looked in your personal profile for an e-mail address, and, I understand if you do not want to divulge it. I would like to see comments from you on a matter of great importance to a co-worker of mine. A close member of her family had "stillborn" twins. She was raised in a Catholic school and attends a Catholic church regularly. She has shared this situation with me and is very concerned because the infants were not baptised before burial. She said that she has learned since then from reading that she could have baptised them herself. Of course the obvious thing for her to do is consult with her priest, and, maybe she has. She is a person of very few words and always puts the needs of others before herself, sometimes to the point of being burdened by their needs. Frankly, I am suprised, but glad, that she shared her burden with me. I did a "search" in the forum on the subject of infants and their salvation but found no comments from you. From reading your postings, which I regard highly, I see that God has blessed you, as well as others in this forum, and I would like to see what God would show you in this matter. I too have difficulty in situations such as this that involve infants and children for there are times when I lay awake at night weeping for children. If you have commented on this subject in a previous posting and I have missed it please forgive me. My e-mail address is dave@gowithats.com. Thank you forum members for allowing me to post this personal situation. It is not my intent to disrupt the flow of postings that help us to better understand the word of God. I will not make a habit of it. Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

120 | Did David disobey? | 1 Kin 3:14 | Cyclist | 109215 | ||
Good day Forum Members! I will praise the name of the Lord with my whole heart! I will sing praises to the Lord in my heart and with my mouth the day long! I will praise the Lord for he is worthy of all praise! I will praise the Lord with joy and thanksgiving because His joy is my strength! Praise the name of the Lord forever! It's been quite some time since I've been able to share with you all. I must say that I have MISSED you! I have continued to pray, and will continue to pray for this forum. I've been spending time reading the Old Testament. I wanted to post a question so that I could get some input on this. In 1 Kings 3 the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream. In 1 Kings 3:14 the Lord says to Solomon "If you walk in My ways, keeping My statutes and commandments, as your father David walked, then I will prolong your days." In 2 Sam 11 we read the story of David's adultry with Bathsheba and his murdering of Uriah the Hitite. Ex 20:13 "You shall not murder. Ex 20:14 "You shall not commit adultery. David disobeyed two commandments here, yet, the Lord said to Solomon "If you walk in My ways, keeping My statutes and commandments, as your father David walked,......" Is it because David repented that he obeyed the commandments? or, Is it because David did not ever worship any other gods like the other kings of Israel, including Solomon, did? I look forward to reading your comments. Always your brother in Christ Jesus our Lord, Cyclist (David) I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |
