1101 | Sealing of the 144,000? | Rev 14:1 | srbaegon | 45698 | ||
Hello jme The 144,000 are physical Jews. Rev 7:5-8 goes to the trouble of giving the tribes they are from (not so with spiritual offspring of Abraham). Also, Romans 11 specifically says that God has not cast off His earthly people forever. Steve |

1102 | Can We Walk on Water today??? | Matt 14:29 | srbaegon | 45336 | ||
Hello NewWine Hebrews 13:8 (ESV) Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. The verse speaks of His nature, character, person, however you want to say it. However, His methods have changed through history. One cannot assume that because the Lord and Peter did it once that we should all be doing it over and over. Do you want to increase your faith? So did the twelve. He told them to be obedient to what they were responsible to do -- Luke 17:5-10 (ESV) The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith!" [6] And the Lord said, "If you had faith like a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree, 'Be uprooted and planted in the sea,' and it would obey you. [7] "Will any one of you who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep say to him when he has come in from the field, 'Come at once and sit down at table'? [8] Will he not rather say to him, 'Prepare supper for me, and dress properly, and serve me while I eat and drink, and afterward you will eat and drink'? [9] Does he thank the servant because he did what was commanded? [10] So you also, when you have done all that you were commanded, say, 'We are unworthy servants; we have only done what was our duty.' " Steve |

Hello creed Guidelines are established to be followed. Kalos and I (and others) have been on this forum much longer than you. We get along because we abide by those guidelines. Steve |

1104 | Aren't the elect commanded to repent? | Hebrews | srbaegon | 45204 | ||
Hello John I don't thin the apostle is using "world" in a substantially different way. In both the gospel and epistle he is quoting/stating comparisons--between believers and everyone else. Tim might know better. Steve |
||||||
1105 | What was infused? | Acts 1:3 | srbaegon | 44627 | ||
Good morning Steve I'm not sure Tim set up a straw man. My own experience has shown that the vast majority of those who reject a literal 24-hour day also reject a literal Adam. I would add that this majority I just described also believes one can earn his way to heaven; that there's no devil and probably no hell; that only bad people would go to hell, but "I" am not that bad; the Bible can't be taken seriously or literally;... In other words, unbelievers. Steve |

1106 | Fellowshipping? | 2 Cor 13:14 | srbaegon | 44424 | ||
Hello Waiting Fellowship is a communicative relationship between people. You can fellowship with God--that's Scriptural--but the NT is quite clear that we are to interact with one another. Consider the following: 1 Cor. 11:17-18 (ESV) But in the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse. [18] For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you. The believers at Corinth were coming together in such a poor way that Paul had to chasten them for their conduct. But at least they were coming together! All believers need the company of other believers whether it's in a church or group Bible study or one-on-one. We are called to disciple and build up one another. Steve |

1107 | When is this reign? | Rev 19:14 | srbaegon | 44295 | ||
So many questions. :-) The clothing is the tip. From what I can tell, only the saints are clothed this way. Steve |
||||||
1108 | When is this reign? | Rev 19:14 | srbaegon | 44289 | ||
Hello Mommapbs I did a quick look at the Study Bible at www.ccel.org. Darby and Gill say those on the thrones are believers (referring back to Daniel 7:9). I see judging as a part of reigning. Both commentators see two groups of people being mentioned--1) those on the thrones and 2) those who lost their lives in the tribulation. Steve Learned riding in vain? No, it just means you'll be better than I when the time comes. :-) |

1109 | What was infused? | Acts 1:3 | srbaegon | 44258 | ||
Hello Doug It's never cheezy to have friends on the correct side of an issue. :-D BTW, I'll take a hot fudge sundae you have repented. ;-) Steve |
||||||
1110 | When is this reign? | Rev 19:14 | srbaegon | 44255 | ||
Hello Mommabps I know Rev 20:4-5 looks that way, but if you take all of Rev 20, there is a comparison between the "first resurrection" (where believers are reigning) and the next one at the great white throne where there is judging. I'm open to correction here. Steve |

1111 | What was infused? | Acts 1:3 | srbaegon | 44106 | ||
Hello nimrod2 It was not my intention of discussing creation accounts, only to point out one place that did your argument diservice. But I'll comment by number anyway. 1. I believe that phrase is used for any part of that period from tribulation through final judgement as well as all of it put together. 2. I agree. 3. An assumption based on silence which weakens its effectiveness in argument. One could as easily say that the "evening and morning" phrase should be assumed since it was used in the first six. 4. A tenuous conclusion regardless of the interpretation of the seventh day closure. Scholars I've read point to the Lord's final kingdom. 5. and 6. Certainly demonstrates God being unaffected by time on earth. 7. Conclusion based on our current abilities and observations. That doesn't make it good or bad, just arguable. 8. The passages are speaking of the unlimited aspect of God's covenant with His people. If each was taken literally, the covenant spoken of must be counted from when that covenant was executed. So in Ps 105:8 it's specifically the Abrahamic covenant. I believe that God created with apparent age, because when He created the creatures, He told them to be fruitful and multiply. Impossible if they didn't have apparent adulthood. Steve |

1112 | What was infused? | Acts 1:3 | srbaegon | 44088 | ||
Hello nimrod2 Thanks for clarifying. I had thought you made a "faux pas", but you were intentional in your wording. Regardless of your interpretation of the creation account, your appeal to Lev 25 and the Sabbath year severely damaged your position. As Makarios mentioned, it's bad hermeneutics. I can agree that a sabbath can occur after six periods of time (days, weeks, and years are all mentioned in Scripture), the proper use must be taken from the direct context. Steve |

1113 | How did sin originate | Bible general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 43888 | ||
Hello Judith What Scripture which attests that... 1. the serpent was the first creature out of hell? 2. Cain is 50 precent bad on his father side and 100 precent good on his mother side? 3. Cain never died before or during the flood? 4. Cain was a son of Noah? Steve |

1114 | CAN YOU REMARRY THE SAME SPOUSE | Deut 24:4 | srbaegon | 42958 | ||
Hello kalos Deut 24 is speaking of a divorce where the spouse remarries, loses the new spouse, and then considers remarrying the first spouse. However, it does not stop me from emphatically saying that I am not under the Law. The things you mentioned are not suddenly allowed under grace. I'm sure I could easily find verses on sexual sins and occult practices in the NT. Steve |

1115 | Is baptism done only once? | Eph 4:5 | srbaegon | 42750 | ||
Hello Raven You've certainly backed yourself into a corner this time. I acknowledge this was an interim time where God worked in stages, but there are truths in these passages that are concrete. Your argument from silence that the eunuch did not receive the Holy Spirit is preposterous. Eph 1:13-14 convinces me that he did. If the eunuch did not receive the Spirit, he died in his sins. Not much to rejoice over. The apostles never passed out gifts of their own discretion. Gifts are given by the Holy Spirit Himself (1 Cor 12). Simon tried to buy apostolic power. That was a gross error. It does not necessarily mean he had not received the Holy Spirit. Steve |

1116 | Why would someone get rebaptised? | Bible general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 42570 | ||
Hello Raven As one who is not blinded by the Calvinist viewpoint, I can say you are out of line in your reasoning of inherited sin. We ARE judged by what Adam did, and Joe has demonstrated that. Also, it appears you are making accusations of Joe that are unfounded. I suspect you owe him an apology. Steve |
||||||
1117 | Why would someone get rebaptised? | Bible general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 42569 | ||
Hello Raven Grace is unmerited favor. If Noah had done or been anything worthy of receiving it, it would not have been grace. It would have been his due. Wonder of wonders that God could ever look at you or me. Romans 5:8 (ESV) "but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Steve |

1118 | what is the scripture Paul quotes here? | Eph 5:14 | srbaegon | 42070 | ||
Hello Scribe About your comment: "Paul was inspired by the Holy Spirit and would not quote from false books that were not scripture" What about the uninspired poets Paul quoted in Acts 17:28 and Titus 1:12? Are these somehow different? Steve |
||||||
1119 | did adam and Eve ever get forgiveness? | Matthew | srbaegon | 42047 | ||
Good afternoon, Hank I'm on a forum on church leadership which includes pastors, elders, parachurch leaders, etc. You would think that such a group (almost 200 individuals) would try to use Scripture as much as possible. Ain't happenin'! There's probably six or seven of us that will say, "But how does that line up with this passage?" And it's well-moderated, so we don't get off-the-wall comments. Steve |
||||||
1120 | Hebrews 6:6 explained | Hebrews | srbaegon | 41926 | ||
Hello Tim I went back and read your note to Sir Pent (I miss having him around). Your listing of the participial phrases was confirmed by a local instructor in a Hebrews class I'm taking. He also noted the meaning of the word "taste". My question is (and you've probably heard it before): Could this not be a correlation to the parable of the Sower and four seeds? This would account for the apparent life when indeed there wasn't any. Your thoughts? Steve |
