1122 | Rapture question? | 1 Thess 4:17 | jlpangilinan | 23407 | ||
Looking for truth, I saw many answers of your questions. Let me try answers it in my on views. Its in the hand of God. Who knows if all of you in the airplane will all go to heaven. If your question is will God allows others to die? my answer is YES! if they are not prepared for the coming of Christ, meaning if they are people do not believed in Christ, God will allows the death for them. Let me give you and example. In the time of Noah, Ge 6:6 ¶ And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. Ge 6:7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. e 6:8 ¶ But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD. Ge 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. God destroy all the people except for those who walked with Him. So if other people in the plane you said is not walked with God we know that God will allows that death will happened to them. Be always reminded that God is powerful. He can allows things to happen if He want, but God also can fly that plane without any pilot if He want to. You can reply on this note if it is valid for you. We try to explain something if you want to. I hope it helps. God bless, Johnny |

1123 | does eternal have a beginning? | Jer 1:5 | jlpangilinan | 23291 | ||
Ethan, Do you believed that "Adam exist" or he knew what happened after he died?. Ec 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. 5. Torrey Ec 9:6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun. How will adam knew it if he cannot know everything under the sun. I know it was mention that they are like God to know the right and wrong (the same us) they are not like God that has a capacity to know everything if they want to. God bless, Johnny |

Thanks Nolan, I really consider that. The reason why I am very interested to that aside from my personal intension is because of Some friends belong to Jehovas Withnessess, they are very particular in that question. They really believed that people will stay here in the earth (like Adam and Eve who live in Eden before) It was mention in the bible that we have to "be preapred in any question". God bless, Johnny |

Thanks Joe, I was wondering If I could get the answers with passages. I am very interested to that question because of some friends belongs to Jehovas Witnessess. They are really particular that Adam and Eve are not knowledgeable that someday they will leave in Heaven but instead people will leave in paradise. (like they was in Eden) Meaning God will restored the original plan for being in paradise (not heaven). They also believed that people will go to heaven are limited (not all of us). Johnny |

1126 | Healing Holy Spirit | Bible general Archive 1 | jlpangilinan | 22970 | ||
When Jesus had called His desciples he gave power of healing to them (including Judas) But I dont think it can be share for all. Some people has this gift some maybe have not. Mt 10:1 And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease. Let us look thsese passages: 1Co 12:8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 1Co 12:9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 1Co 12:10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: Some of them given the gift of wisdom, some the gift of healing. But we have to always think that the really concern of Jesus Christ is to teach all nations, and teach them all He commanded: Mt 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Mt 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Jesus required all of us to teach, not just contented in listening but to teach. If some of us has gifted of healing is is good, but that's not the main point, but to teach His Kingdom. God bless, Johnny |

1127 | communion bring what to our minds? | Luke 22:19 | jlpangilinan | 22965 | ||
Lu 22:19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. We are remembering Jesus Christ. Mt 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. Mr 14:24 And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many. We remember our testament with Him we free us all in our sins (if we are going to repent) Without Christ us Gentils we are alliens from the commonwealth of Israel. We have no share in heaven but because of Jesus Christ we can received the Kingdom of God. Eph 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: Eph 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

1128 | where can one be baptized? | Matt 3:13 | jlpangilinan | 22961 | ||
Mt 3:13 ¶ Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. Mt 3:14 But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? Mt 3:15 And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. 15. Mt 3:16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: If follow the example of Jesus Christ we should be baptize in water (river or lake) Joh 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Mt 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:1 |

1129 | is there a set time to have communion? | Luke 22:19 | jlpangilinan | 22958 | ||
Lu 22:19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. When Jesus Christ said "this do in remembrance of me" if you are particluar in the whole event "last suffer" it set time that its must be in the evening. But if you are particluar in doing it to "remember Jesus Christ" there is no set time for it. Because it is very good if we can remember Christ all the time. Of cource we know there are proper things to celebrate the last supper, it should be you and your co-churches will celebrate it. And we should prepare our selves to received that Holy communion. Mt 26:26 ¶ And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. 26. Mt 26:27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 27. Mt 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. We also remembering the new testament of Jesus Christ for us gentiles to gave us share for the commonwealth of Israel: Eph 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: Thanks, Johnny |

I hope it is the verse that you want. Ro 2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Ro 2:15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) Thanks and God bless, Johnny |

1131 | does eternal have a beginning? | Jer 1:5 | jlpangilinan | 22950 | ||
Thank you Sir Pent Your response was very good. But I really mean of concept of heaven is: Is Adam knowledgeable enough that when he died his soul will go to heaven? The same us we hope as Christians, as a promise to us by Jesus Christ. Joh 14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. Did Adam received this kind of promises from God? If he had received where in the bible it was written. We know that it is very important things so I sure Moses will going to record it if he found that promises of God. It was really the same that when Moses taught people of Israel he never mentioned that if people going to die, thier soul will go to heaven. The promises for them is the promise land and not heaven. If I can have the answers for my question base on scriptures I would be happy. I hope to get answers with the scriptures support. When I mention that this is off from the original topic, what I mean my topic and not anyone who are willing to participate in this topic. So if you have additional information regarding this I would very happy to read it. And maybe I would more than very happy if you can give it with an scriptures support. Thank you and God bless, Johnny |

1133 | Describe the ark of the covenant. | Ex 25:10 | jlpangilinan | 22814 | ||
The sacred ark is designated by a different Hebrew word, 'aron', which is the common name for a chest or coffer used for any purpose (Ge 50:26; 2Ki 12:9-10). It is distinguished from all others by such titles as the "ark of God" (1Sa 3:3), "ark of the covenant" (Jos 3:6; Heb 9:4), "ark of the testimony" (Ex 25:22). It was made of acacia or shittim wood, a cubit and a half broad and high and two cubits long, and covered all over with the purest gold. Its upper surface or lid, the mercy-seat, was surrounded with a rim of gold; and on each of the two sides were two gold rings, in which were placed two gold-covered poles by which the ark could be carried (Nu 7:9; 10:21; 4:5,19-20; 1Ki 8:3,6). Over the ark, at the two extremities, were two cherubim, with their faces turned toward each other (Le 16:2; Nu 7:89). Their outspread wings over the top of the ark formed the throne of God, while the ark itself was his footstool (Ex 25:10-22; 37:1-9). The ark was deposited in the "holy of holies," and was so placed that one end of the poles by which it was carried touched the veil which separated the two apartments of the tabernacle (1Ki 8:8). The two tables of stone which constituted the "testimony" or evidence of God's covenant with the people (De 31:26), the "pot of manna" (Ex 16:33), and "Aaron's rod that budded" (Nu 17:10), were laid up in the ark (Heb 9:4). (See Tabernacle) The ark and the sanctuary were "the beauty of Israel" (La 2:1). During the journeys of the Israelites the ark was carried by the priests in advance of the host (Nu 4:5-6; 10:33-36; Ps 68:1; 132:8). It was borne by the priests into the bed of the Jordan, which separated, opening a pathway for the whole of the host to pass over (Jos 3:15-16; 4:7,10-11,17-18). It was borne in the procession round Jericho (Jos 6:4,6,8,11-12). When carried it was always wrapped in the veil, the badgers' skins, and blue cloth, and carefully concealed even from the eyes of the Levites who carried it. After the settlement of Israel in Palestine the ark remained in the tabernacle at Gilgal for a season, and was then removed to Shiloh till the time of Eli, between 300 and 400 years (Jer 7:12), when it was carried into the field of battle so as to secure, as they supposed, victory to the Hebrews, and was taken by the Philistines (1Sa 4:3-11), who sent it back after retaining it seven months (1Sa 5:7-8). It remained then at Kirjath-jearim (1Sa 7:1-2) till the time of David (twenty years), who wished to remove it to Jerusalem; but the proper mode of removing it having been neglected, Uzzah was smitten with death for putting "forth his hand to the ark of God," and in consequence of this it was left in the house of Obed-edom in Gath-rimmon for three months (2Sa 6:1-11), at the end of which time David removed it in a grand procession to Jerusalem, where it was kept till a place was prepared for it (2Sa 6:12-19). It was afterwards deposited by Solomon in the temple (1Ki 8:6-9). When the Babylonians destroyed Jerusalem and plundered the temple, the ark was probably taken away by Nebuchadnezzar and destroyed, as no trace of it is afterwards to be found. The absence of the ark from the second temple was one of the points in which it was inferior to the first temple. I hope it help Johnny |

1134 | What's the role of the ark in the future | Ex 25:10 | jlpangilinan | 22813 | ||
It is mentions twice in the New Testament. I dont know it is still has a big play for the future. Heb 9:4 Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant; Re 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail. I heard also this to some pastors that in Armagedon it has big role for the Israelites, but it seems its not documented. They maybe adopt the practice of Josua in Jericho that Ark has a big role to destroy that City. Some Bible dictionary mentioned it is not found: 1Ki 8:6-9). When the Babylonians destroyed Jerusalem and plundered the temple, the ark was probably taken away by Nebuchadnezzar and destroyed, as no trace of it is afterwards to be found. The absence of the ark from the second temple was one of the points in which it was inferior to the first temple. Thanks, Johnny |

1135 | does eternal have a beginning? | Jer 1:5 | jlpangilinan | 22812 | ||
It is nothing goes with your topic. My question is: Did Adam knows the concept of Heaven: Ge 3:19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. I am very interested to know it, meaning if there are scriptures that will support that Adam knew the concept of Heaven. (maybe he knows that God is in heaven) that if He disobey God His soul will be tormented in Hell. Or is he also will informed that If he obey God his Soul will go to heaven. We have promises of Heaven from Christ, but it seems Adam not knowledgeable about it: Joh 14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. Nolan, I post this question many times in the forum, it seems they dont have the answers yet. I hope you can help explaining it to me. God bless, Johnny |

1136 | Do we tithe on our net or gross? | Mal 3:8 | jlpangilinan | 22800 | ||
I dont think so. Jesus did not mentioned that he required everyone to give 10 percent, but the purposes of the heart. The verse that you quoted is really strict to the scribes because we know that time they very strick on the tihting and leave other most important teaching of God which included in the two great commandments. To give some example: Mt 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. Jesus Christ mentioned that "He come not to destroy the law but to fulfil it" If for Jesus Christ really fulfilling the law is Just simply observing thithes and sabath and other things the included in the law of Moses why He not submit himself of doing it. He never pay tithe to anyone nor He reuired His desciples to give tithe to Him. He is God He got all the reason to collect the tithe right? The reasons of the Pastors today of collecting tithes because it is for God. My question is why Jesus Christ didntdo it. Baptism is a important things, would you agree? Jesus Christ would like us to emphasise how important it is. What did He do He required himself to be baptize to set an example to us, He asked John to baptized Him, He made Himself an example. My question to you now is if tithe really important guidelines or whatsoever, why Jesus Christ not required Himself to do what He like to do of His people. Tithe is included in the Law of Moses or even before the law given to Moses. Ac 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. Please show me that tithe is not included in the law of moses and I would agree. It mentioned there in that passages that, Law of Moses "cannot Justified us" Why keep doing the things that cannot Justified us? If we are really want to observe one of the laws, why only the tithes we must observe all part of the law so we are consistent. Let me use your quoted verses for me: Lu 11:42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. If you read it carefully we have to be consistent of doing every part of the law, and not to leave other undone. If you just observe the tithe and not other laws it is the same that you leave other undone. Why we keep observing the tithe if we cannot observe laws like circumscision, killing animals for our sin, observing sabbath carefully stoned people to death if they do anything in sabbath, why we are not consistent? We have a new guideline of giving, and there is no required amount, but what is purposes of the heart. Just answers all my questions, and I would agree. God bless, Johnny |

1137 | Releases from tithing 10 per cent? | 2 Cor 9:7 | jlpangilinan | 22623 | ||
Michael, You stated this. "When I am defending free will giving I do not refer to the gospels because it is the teachings after the cross that I apply to my life. This understanding of law and grace has really free me from confusion and a lack of understanding of who I have become in Christ." You are right! when are the one who give there is no problem, if you can give more that 10 or 20 percent of your income to God and it is a purposes of you heart God will be happy for that. But what if you are the one who requires you people to give the 10 percent of thier income? We have a problem here. I think we have to know the guidelines of what Jesus want us to do. Mt 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. If we read that passages carefully, Jesus says "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!" because they are the one who are very strick to collect tihes. It is the blame is for them. So if the pastors required people to give 10 percent of their income to the church, then that pastors is the same of that scribes and pharisees! Because we all know that the teaching of Jesus Christ on guidelines of giving are more love offering not to required people to give thier ten percent. You also mentioned this:"I do believe tithing was part of the mosaic law and also before the law was established(Abraham tithed to Melchizedek)." Actually I do believed that if this happened in the time of New Testament it will not tolerated. If we read that verse from Ge 14:17, Ge 14:17 ¶ And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale. Ge 14:18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God. Ge 14:19 And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: Ge 14:20 And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all. I dont think Jesus Christ will tolerated anyone to slaughter any person good or bad and took thier goods and give the tithe to God. Thank you, and God bless, Johnny |

1138 | Do we tithe on our net or gross? | Mal 3:8 | jlpangilinan | 22617 | ||
I am not mentioned that tithe is wrong in the Old Testament. They required to give, it is a very important part of Jewish religion: TITHE he first Mosaic law on this subject is recorded in Le 27:30-32. Subsequent legislation regulated the destination of the tithes (Nu 18:21-24,26-28; De 12:5-6,11,17; 14:22-23). The paying of the tithes was an important part of the Jewish religious worship. In the days of Hezekiah one of the first results of the reformation of religion was the eagerness with which the people brought in their tithes (2Ch 31:5-6). The neglect of this duty was sternly rebuked by the prophets (Am 4:4; Mal 3:8-10). Tithe is included in the law of Moses, and the law cannot justify us. Ac 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. Why keep doing the things that cannot justify us? If really want to observe one part of the law you must observed it at all. We have to be consistent, We are ready to exclude the law of moses, why not the tithe. We are not observing the law of circumscision, kiliing of animals for our sins, why we occurse those things except tithe? My challenge to you now is can you show me if Jesus Christ include tithes in His teaching. Show me if Jesus required His desciple to give thier titges to Him. Or He made himself an example of doing so. If the tithe or (ten percent of income) is important, I am sure that Jesus Christ will require Himself to do it. We know that baptism is important, it is include in Christ teaching. Just to show us that it is important He required himself, He asked John to baptize Him. Guidelines of giving that taught for the Christians is goes Love, Grace, and Charity. 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. There is no required amount, it is not mentioned of how much you can give, but of how much you love to give. If you heart allows you to give more 10 or 20 percent to the church it is acceptable to God. God love a cheerful giver. But there is no required amount, it never mentioned that it should be 10 percent of your income or whatsoever. Just to show some example: t 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.3 Scribes are very strick in collecting tithe, but Jesus Christ tell to them? Another example: Mr 12:42 And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing. 42. Mr 12:43 And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury: This is a very clear example of love offering. She gave everything porposes of her heart, but there is no required amount. Now, if can show me that Jesus Christ taught to any person and require them to give it to Him, I would agree that tithing is right guidelines of giving for us Christians. God bless, Johnny |

1139 | Women pastor | 1 Tim 3:1 | jlpangilinan | 22609 | ||
Let the bible answer to your question. The apostles gave us guidelines, If we desire the office of the bishops (pastors or ministers and its equivalent)Here it is very clear that it is applicable for a Man and not for Woman. 1Ti 3:1 ¶ This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work. 1Ti 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; They also put some guidelines for woman of what they are going to do. 1Co 14:34 ¶ Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. 34. 1Co 14:35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. Last resort if there is no available Men pastors. They have to cover thier hair. 1Co 11:6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn: but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered. But they can apostolate, maybe outside the church, they can conduct a bible study. Because the teaching of Jesus Christ goes: Mt 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:1 Mt 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Jesus said "teach them all things I have commanded you" If we look at what is all things that commanded of Jesus Christ to us is included "teaching" so everyone has required to teach not just to listen but to teach. And when Jesus Christ mention "all nations" for all we know it is included "men and women" I hope it will help. God bless, Johnny |

Michael Before we start this discussion let me put some clarifications. 1. In your own understanding, what is tithe for you. It is a ten percent of your income (net/gross)? 2. Or it is the same as love offering that was mentioned in the new testament. If your answer is it is the 10 ten percent of your income, then I will try to prove (with scriptures supporting it) to you that this teaching is different from the teaching of Jesus Christ. Just to clear my stand, I mentioned it many times when I have a discussion regading tithes, that giving is not wrong but there is no required amount it is not 10 percent or 20 percent of your income, but what porposes of your heart because God love a cheerful giver. In your second question. Again let me ask some clarifications Are you talking of "New Testament" or "NEW COVENANT" To make sure that we both agree, on which we are going to Begin our discussion. TESTAMENT: occurs twelve times in the New Testament (Heb 9:15, etc.) as the rendering of the Gr. diatheke, which is twenty times rendered "covenant" in the Authorized Version, and always so in the Revised Version. The Vulgate translates incorrectly by testamentum, whence the names "Old" and "New Testament," by which we now designate the two sections into which the Bible is divided. COVENANT: a contract or agreement between two parties. In the Old Testament the Hebrew word berith is always thus translated. Berith is derived from a root which means "to cut," and hence a covenant is a "cutting," with reference to the cutting or dividing of animals into two parts, and the contracting parties passing between them, in making a covenant (Ge 15:1-21; Jer 34:18-19). Michael, dont think that I am direct it to the point, I want to make sure that we both agree on which we are going to begin our discussion. Thanks also for your patient. God Bless, Johnny |
