127 | Who was the twelveth person in 1 C 15:5 | 1 Cor 15:5 | BradK | 227432 | ||
Hello e.lee, The verse reads, "and that He appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve." (NASB) So, the reference would clearly be to the disciples. As The Commentary Critical notes, "seen of Cephas--Peter ( Luke 24:34 ). the twelve--The round number for "the Eleven" ( Luke 24:33 Luke 24:36 ). "The Twelve" was their ordinary appellation, even when their number was not full. However, very possibly Matthias was present ( Acts 1:22 Acts 1:23 ). Some of the oldest manuscripts and versions read, "the Eleven": but the best on the whole, "the Twelve." I hope this helps, BradK |

128 | Easter | Bible general Archive 4 | BradK | 227408 | ||
Hi Julia, I'm the other Brad, so if you don't mind... :-) To my knowledge, Easter is not about worshipping any pagan goddess- despite what the JW's say! Easter is about CELEBRATING the resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ! He is Risen, is He not? (1 Cor. 15:14) Since the JW's deny the Diety of Christ, they must therefore, dismiss Easter as any type of celebration affirming his Divinity! Does this make sense? The Watchtower Organization has only been around since the late 19th Century! What did they uncover(?) that the rest of the Church missed for 1900 Years? Nothing. Ask him why they deny that Jesus is God when scripture- and the Church- have affirmed His Diety! Jesus clearly told the Pharisees in John 8:58," "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am." (NASB) The Jews picked up stones to stone Him, for they clearly knew what He was affirming- to be God! Similarly, after Jesus told Thomas, "Reach here with your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your hand and put it into My side; and do not be unbelieving, but believing." Thomas answered and said to Him, "My Lord and my God!" (John 20:27-28) Thomas certainly knew WHO Jesus was. Unfortunately, many well-meaning JW's and your husband have been systematically deceived by their Watchtower Organization! Their theology is built upon Arianism- (the denial that Christ is Divine) which was soundly defeated at the Council of Nicea in 325! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

129 | Should we go by the dietary laws in O.T | Lev 11:1 | BradK | 227401 | ||
Hello dominique, My initial answer would be, "If you want to". This really falls under situational relativity. The right and the wrong of those in this category are dependent upon the culture, time, situation, or some other variable. The guiding principle would be found in Rom. 14. I would then ask, "why or what motivates you to want to do so?" Keep in mind there's great wisdom in the dietary laws as given to Israel, they just don't apply specifically to us. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

130 | what music do we listen to | Phil 4:8 | BradK | 227357 | ||
Hello pentwistle, There is no direct biblical command as to what types of music we should listen to. This really falls under situational relativity. The right and the wrong of those in this category are dependent upon the culture, time, situation, or some other variable. IMO, the guiding principle we should follow may be found in Phil 4:8, "Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things." (NASB) Ask, Does the music I'm listening to glorify God? Does it bring me closer to or further away from Him? I hope this is of some help, BradK |

133 | moses saw Gods face. | Num 12:5 | BradK | 227233 | ||
Hello Vicky, Welcome to the Forum! Can you be a little more specific and support your contention? As this is a Study Bible Forum, the burden of proof would be upon you to demonstrate the truth of your contention:-) However, it appears from several passages that Moses actually heard the voice of the Lord and saw His glory (e.g., Ex. 19:16-19; 24:17-18; 34:5-11). The Bible Knowledge Commentary observes, "Yet Moses could not and did not look upon the person of God Himself for no one can do this and live (Ex. 33:17-23) for God is a Spirit (John 4:24). He saw only the form of the LORD, but even this was a privilege extended to no other man. The “form” refers to a likeness or a representation of the Lord, not the very shape."

134 | fight fire with fire | Jer 34:22 | BradK | 227211 | ||
Hello Legs, No the phrase, "fight fire with fire" is not recorded or originate in scripture! The Origin (source) of this phrase was "actual fire-fighting that was taken on by US settlers in the 19th century. They attempted to guard against grass or forest fires by deliberately raising small controllable fires, which they called 'back-fires', to remove any flammable material in advance of a larger fire and so deprive it of fuel. This literal 'fighting fire with fire' was often successful, although the settlers' lack of effective fire control equipment meant that their own fires occasionally got out of control and made matters worse rather than better." [www.phrases.org.uk/meanings] The closest wording to this phrase verse may be in Jer. 34:22, "Behold, I am going to command,' declares the LORD, 'and I will bring them back to this city; and they will fight against it and take it and burn it with fire; and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation without inhabitant.'" (NASB) I hope this helps, BradK |

135 | how do you do a teaching about Anointing | 2 Cor 1:21 | BradK | 227205 | ||
Hello isrocks, My first question would be, "who are you teaching?", a Sunday School class or other Bible Study? Next, I'd ask "what do you seek to explain by teaching on anointing?", or what is your exact purpose? Then, I would study the use of the words, anoint, anointed, anointing and see how they are used in scripture. Consult a Concordance like Strongs, or the NASB Exhaustive. Additionally, a Topical Bible like Nave's or Torrey's may also be useful. Do you have access to these resources? I hope this helps, BradK |

137 | After Jesus was baptised, God said this | Matt 3:17 | BradK | 227181 | ||
Hello Dorothea, Good question. With reference to Christ, the phrase is found in the following NT passages: Matt 3:17 "and behold, a voice out of the heavens said, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well-pleased." Matt 17:5 "While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, a voice out of the cloud said, "This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well-pleased; listen to Him!" Mark 1:11 "and a voice came out of the heavens: "You are My beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased." Mark 9:7 "Then a cloud formed, overshadowing them, and a voice came out of the cloud, "This is My beloved Son, listen to Him!" Luke 3:22 "and the Holy Spirit descended upon Him in bodily form like a dove, and a voice came out of heaven, "You are My beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased." 2 Pet. 1:17 "For when He received honor and glory from God the Father, such an utterance as this was made to Him by the Majestic Glory, "This is My beloved Son with whom I am well-pleased" (NASB) I hope this helps, BradK |

138 | I dont understand 1 Corinthians 14:5 | 1 Cor 14:5 | BradK | 227171 | ||
Hello Aaron, That's a great question! Here's how the Amplified reads: 1 Cor 14:5 "Now I wish that you might all speak in [unknown] tongues, but more especially [I want you] to prophesy (to be inspired to preach and interpret the divine will and purpose). He who prophesies [who is inspired to preach and teach] is greater (more useful and more important) than he who speaks in [unknown] tongues, unless he should interpret [what he says], so that the church may be edified and receive good [from it]." The Bible Knowledge Commentary offers this, " 14:5. Paul had no intention of depreciating the gift of tongues; he was simply interested in appreciating the gift of prophecy. There was nothing wrong with the gift of tongues; in fact Paul thought it would be good if everyone had the gift. Of course he had said the same thing about celibacy (7:7), but in neither instance did he expect universal compliance with his statement. Since both were gifts from God, neither should be despised. In a church gathering, however, the gift of prophecy and its exercise was greatly to be preferred to uninterpreted tongues simply because the former built up others. As already stated, the tongues gift was confirmatory and thus temporary (see comments on 13:8). Thus those instructions, specifically directed to the Corinthians’ misuse of tongues, are not directives for the use of tongues today." I hope this is of help to you:-) BradK |

140 | Jehovah's names | Ex 17:15 | BradK | 227154 | ||
Hello cjwill54, Great question:-) The name Jehovah -Nissi means, "Jehovah my banner" from Exodus 17:15 Jehovah-Jireh is one of the number of names compounded with Jehovah. the story here is found in Gen. 22, where Abraham is instructed by God to sacrifice his son Issac. Here in verse 14 it's noted, "Abraham called the name of that place The LORD Will Provide, (Jehovah-Jireh) as it is said to this day, "In the mount of the LORD it will be provided." (NASB) Jehovah-Rophe means, "Jehovah heals"! The names arises out of one of Israel's earliest experiences in the wilderness as related in Ex. 15:22-26. It comes just after their crossing of the Red Sea. I hope this help, BradK |
