101 | TV Show "Crossing Over" - Dead Speaks? | Not Specified | jg8ball | 675 | ||
There is a relatively new show on the Sci-Fi channel called "Crossing Over" in which the host, John Edward, claims to be able to communicate with the dead. I've watched several of the shows and the information he relays is pretty exact and would seem almost impossible for him (or his staff) to research the people to gather the info. He seems to bring a lot of "mental" healing to the people he talks with. Could it be possible that God allows this to take place, or could it be the devil tricking the people, or is there some other explanation? | ||||||

103 | Do those in heaven know what's happening | Heb 12:1 | jg8ball | 672 | ||
I don't think that this was meant to be interpreted that way and since there are no other passages that mention that we are watched from Heaven (at least none that I am aware of), I would tend to interpret it more as way to mention all the great and faithfull people mentioned in the previous chapter. Although I don't think this verse talks about it, I am posting a question about a similar topic in reference to a tv show called "Crossing Over". |

104 | JESUS'S DEATH | NT general Archive 1 | jg8ball | 635 | ||
I believe that Jesus died for ALL humanity and ALL humanity has the opportunity for salvation because of this great sacrifice. Acts 2:21 "And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." Romans 10:8-13 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." 1 Tim 2:3-6 3 This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all men--the testimony given in its proper time. |

105 | rapture question | Matt 24:27 | jg8ball | 631 | ||
I don't understand your response. Who said anything about a "secret rapture"? As far as where the rapture theory is substantiated - look at the verses you referenced. In verse 17, "...we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever." How then do you interpret this if not the rapture? Assuming there is a rapture then, I'm not sure where it mentions that our bodies will disappear (or be taken up) as is commonly portrayed versus our souls will be taken up - leaving our empty vessels here on earth. |

106 | What is the best version of the Bible? | Bible general Archive 1 | jg8ball | 623 | ||
Excellent answer! I myself have used primarily the NIV but will be getting a NASB soon. I usually use the computer to check different versions (www.blueletterbible.com has some nice features for this) but sometimes there's nothing like the real book. I'm looking forward to comparing the "thought for thought" translation to the "word for word" translation. thanks for your answer. |

110 | Rapture - Bodies or souls disappear? | Not Specified | jg8ball | 599 | ||
Do you believe that when the rapture takes place, our bodies will disappear (as depicted in the "Left Behind" series and similar books and movies) or could it be just our souls leave our bodies? | ||||||

112 | What does Bible teach on election? | Bible general Archive 1 | jg8ball | 598 | ||
Thanks for the link. I (currently) don't believe in the predestination theory, at least as it's been explained to me, but your notes look well laid out and seem, at first glance, to give an in-depth look at this theory - 97 pages worth. I look forward to reviewing this document to see if my interpretations are faulty or if this is just something that we'll find out in the end. Also, if anyone else wishes to communicate via e-mail and does not wish to post their address, they could setup a "temporary account" at hotmail.com - or similar web-based email systems. That way if this account gets slammed with unwanted e-mails, you just cancel it. |

113 | That's an interesting belief. | Luke 23:43 | jg8ball | 597 | ||
Thanks. You and June bring up good points. I've always been about 60 to 40 in favor of the possiblity of renouncing one's salvation (although I admit I have no idea why one would) but now I think I'm starting to lean the other way. I'll do some more reading into what you wrote and talking with others and maybe I'll swing even farther to the once saved always saved. On the otherhand though, I do believe that we have the choice whether or not to accept Gods gift of salvation. Not because of any pridefull thing or power trip, but because I believe that God would rather have us make the decision to worship Him rather than force us to. Consider for example if you had the power to make someone love you. Would you use it or would you rather have them choose to love you? |

115 | God, Satan, and Job's sons discuss dad? | Gen 6:4 | jg8ball | 557 | ||
I'll try and further investigate the "sons of God" as to whether it means man or angels. As far as the NIV version, I believe that God also inspired the translators when pulling out the meaning of what the original authors wrote. I guess to really know, we'd all have to learn Hebrew and Greek and study the original manuscripts. But if I am remembering correctly, the New Testiment (or parts of it) was most likely written in Aramaic and was later translated to Greek. Since we no longer have the original, we must rely on those early translators. |

117 | What I am asking is baptism a requiement | NT general Archive 1 | jg8ball | 534 | ||
I think you misinterpreted what I asked (or maybe I didn't pose my question clearly enough). What I am asking is baptism a requiement for salvation? I realize that you should be baptized after believing but I feel believing is the only requirement for salvation while my friend believes that both believing and baptism are a requirement for salvation. This then could lead to other thoughts about infants that are baptized and whether or not full immersion is necessary. PS. We both are baptized. |

118 | Saved by belief or belief and baptism? | NT general Archive 1 | jg8ball | 511 | ||
Is belief in Jesus the only requirement to be saved or is (water) baptism also required? I've always believed it was belief alone, but a friend of mine says it's both. We've found verses that support both theories. | ||||||
119 | What was the mark on Cain put by God? | Genesis | jg8ball | 509 | ||
I don't think it was ever specified as to what type of mark it was. It must have been something the people would have known about though. Why do you ask? | ||||||
