121 | men Gerar keep stirving with Isaac | Gen 26:19 | meusing | 44023 | ||
Basicly, there is opposition by others to whatever you do. Matthew Henry' Concise commentary says .. 18-25 Isaac met with much opposition in digging wells. Two were called Contention and Hatred. See the nature of worldly things; they make quarrels, and are occasions of strife; and what is often the lot of the most quiet and peaceable; those who avoid striving, yet cannot avoid being striven with. And what a mercy it is to have plenty of water; to have it without striving for it! The more common this mercy is, the more reason to be thankful for it. At length Isaac digged a well, for which they strove not. Those that study to be quiet, seldom fail of being so. When men are false and unkind, still God is faithful and gracious; and his time to show himself so is, when we are most disappointed by men. The same night that Isaac came weary and uneasy to Beer-sheba, God brought comforts to his soul. Those may remove with comfort who are sure of God's presence |

It is the cosequences of alcohlism in our North American Society that many congregations have chosen to use unalcoholized grape juice as the symbol of the shed blood of Christ so as not to offend those who are in recovery and not to have a temptation to those who are still struggling. | ||||||
124 | Revelations | Mark | meusing | 44015 | ||
Jesus said there is a hell. As a Christian I believe Jesus. He said : Mr 9:43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Mr 9:45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Mr 9:47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: Of course there are those who do not believe Jesus. Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. |

125 | Godhead | Matt 7:13 | meusing | 44013 | ||
Read what it says, the fullness of the Godhead dwells in Him bodily, Jesus is God. The Father is God. and the Holy Spirit is God. Please read these verses : Phil 2:6 Who, although being essentially one with God and in the form of God [possessing the fullness of the attributes which make God God], did not think this equality with God was a thing to be eagerly grasped or retained, Phil 2:7 But stripped Himself [of all privileges and rightful dignity], so as to assume the guise of a servant (slave), in that He became like men and was born a human being. Phil 2:8 And after He had appeared in human form, He abased and humbled Himself [still further] and carried His obedience to the extreme of death, even the death of the cross! Phil 2:9 Therefore [because He stooped so low] God has highly exalted Him and has freely bestowed on Him the name that is above every name, Phil 2:10 That in (at) the name of Jesus every knee should (must) bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, Phil 2:11 And every tongue [frankly and openly] confess and acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 1 Cor 15:24 After that comes the end (the completion), when He delivers over the kingdom to God the Father after rendering inoperative and abolishing every [other] rule and every authority and power. 1 Cor 15:25 For [Christ] must be King and reign until He has put all [His] enemies under His feet. [Ps. 110:1.] 1 Cor 15:26 The last enemy to be subdued and abolished is death. 1 Cor 15:27 For He [the Father] has put all things in subjection under His [Christ's] feet. But when it says, All things are put in subjection [under Him], it is evident that He [Himself] is excepted Who does the subjecting of all things to Him. [Ps. 8:6.] 1 Cor 15:28 However, when everything is subjected to Him, then the Son Himself will also subject Himself to [the Father] Who put all things under Him, so that God may be all in all [be everything to everyone, supreme, the indwelling and controlling factor of life]. |

126 | Does God know our Future? | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 44012 | ||
1. look at it this way, we in 3D can see the beginning and end of a line (2D) and every point (1D) inbetween at one glance. Now, expand our immagination to a infinite dimentional being who can see not only the beginning and ending of time (who, indeed created time), but all the quantum realities of that time line. 2. In light of that, 1Pe 1:20 Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, Re 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. |

127 | Do you make one day holy or all? Rom14:5 | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 43700 | ||
Since I have been redeemed from the guilt of the law, every day that I live is holy because of what Jesus did on Calvary so I can live in resurrected life. Rom 5:1 THEREFORE, SINCE we are justified (acquitted, declared righteous, and given a right standing with God) through faith, let us [grasp the fact that we] have [the peace of reconciliation to hold and to enjoy] peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). Rom 5:2 Through Him also we have [our] access (entrance, introduction) by faith into this grace (state of God's favor) in which we [firmly and safely] stand. And let us rejoice and exult in our hope of experiencing and enjoying the glory of God. Gal 2:19 For I through the Law [under the operation of the curse of the Law] have [in Christ's death for me] myself died to the Law and all the Law's demands upon me, so that I may [henceforth] live to and for God. Gal 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ [in Him I have shared His crucifixion]; it is no longer I who live, but Christ (the Messiah) lives in me; and the life I now live in the body I live by faith in (by adherence to and reliance on and complete trust in) the Son of God, Who loved me and gave Himself up for me. Gal 2:21 [Therefore, I do not treat God's gracious gift as something of minor importance and defeat its very purpose]; I do not set aside and invalidate and frustrate and nullify the grace (unmerited favor) of God. For if justification (righteousness, acquittal from guilt) comes through [observing the ritual of] the Law, then Christ (the Messiah) died groundlessly and to no purpose and in vain. [His death was then wholly superfluous.] Rom 14:6 He who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. He also who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while he who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God. Rom 14:7 None of us lives to himself [but to the Lord], and none of us dies to himself [but to the Lord, for] Rom 14:8 If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or we die, we belong to the Lord. |

128 | Is it is holy day or holiday? | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 43692 | ||
Our focus is to be on our Lord and Master Jesus Christ. Rom 14:4 Who are you to pass judgment on and censure another's household servant? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he shall stand and be upheld, for the Master (the Lord) is mighty to support him and make him stand. Rom 14:5 One man esteems one day as better than another, while another man esteems all days alike [sacred]. Let everyone be fully convinced (satisfied) in his own mind. Rom 14:6 He who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. He also who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while he who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God. Rom 14:7 None of us lives to himself [but to the Lord], and none of us dies to himself [but to the Lord, for] Rom 14:8 If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or we die, we belong to the Lord. Rom 14:9 For Christ died and lived again for this very purpose, that He might be Lord both of the dead and of the living. |

129 | explanation | Matt 21:22 | meusing | 43691 | ||
I think Jesus' brother James had a good explination ... James 1:5 If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God [Who gives] to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him. James 1:6 Only it must be in faith that he asks with no wavering (no hesitating, no doubting). For the one who wavers (hesitates, doubts) is like the billowing surge out at sea that is blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind. James 1:7 For truly, let not such a person imagine that he will receive anything [he asks for] from the Lord, |

131 | What has Eph 2:14-16 with Law/cross? | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 43688 | ||
Please read it. Eph 2:15 By abolishing in His [own crucified] flesh the enmity [caused by] the Law with its decrees and ordinances [which He annulled]; that He from the two might create in Himself one new man [one new quality of humanity out of the two], so making peace. It does not say that gentiles have to obey the Law to be saved, It says that He (Jesus) abolished in His flesh the enmity [caused by] the Law with its decrees and ordinances [which He annulled] |

132 | Was the Law nailed to the cross? | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 43637 | ||
Eph 2:14 For He is [Himself] our peace (our bond of unity and harmony). He has made us both [Jew and Gentile] one [body], and has broken down (destroyed, abolished) the hostile dividing wall between us, Eph 2:15 By abolishing in His [own crucified] flesh the enmity [caused by] the Law with its decrees and ordinances [which He annulled]; that He from the two might create in Himself one new man [one new quality of humanity out of the two], so making peace. Eph 2:16 And [He designed] to reconcile to God both [Jew and Gentile, united] in a single body by means of His cross, thereby killing the mutual enmity and bringing the feud to an end. |

134 | Was the Law ever abolished/negated? (2) | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 43581 | ||
Jesus fulfilled the Law. The Law was to bring us to jesus by pointing out that we can never keep it. the Law was given to the Children of Israel as a covenant which they broke. Jesus has givien us a new covenant in His blood. If you want to try to go to Heaven by keeping all the laws or go to hell, then let me ask you: did you or someone in your family cook any food today. If they did then they broke the LAW. |

The amplified amlifies the KJV when it includes 1 John 5:7 So there are three witnesses in heaven: the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit, and these three are One; 1 John 5:8 and there are three witnesses on the earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree [are in unison; their testimony coincides]. but notice in the Amplified that from 'in heaven to in earth' inclusive it is all in italics. these words were missing from every MS of this epistle before the invention of printing. It is only included in the margin of the Latin Vulgate. |

136 | Was the Law ever abolished or negated? | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 43492 | ||
The Law was fulfilled in Jesus as evidenced by those very verses. as Adam Clarke said ... Verse 17. Think not that I am come to destroy the law] Do not imagine that I am come to violate the law katalusai, from kata, and luw, I loose, violate, or dissolve-I am not come to make the law of none effect-to dissolve the connection which subsists between its several parts, or the obligation men are under to have their lives regulated by its moral precepts; nor am I come to dissolve the connecting reference it has to the good things promised. But I am come, plhrwsai, to complete-to perfect its connection and reference, to accomplish every thing shadowed forth in the Mosaic ritual, to fill up its great design; and to give grace to all my followers, plhrwsai, to fill up, or complete, every moral duty. In a word, Christ completed the law: 1st. In itself, it was only the shadow, the typical representation, of good things to come; and he added to it that which was necessary to make it perfect, HIS OWN SACRIFICE, without which it could neither satisfy God, nor sanctify men. 2dly. He completed it in himself by submitting to its types with an exact obedience, and verifying them by his death upon the cross. 3dly. He completes this law, and the sayings of his prophets, in his members, by giving them grace to love the Lord with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength, and their neighbour as themselves; for this is all the law and the prophets. |

138 | Where is "Lev. 32:2" in the Bible? | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 43489 | ||
I thought I apopgised for my mistake when I wrote ... Note: Please forgive me, that is chapter 23. Sometimes my dysexia gets away from me. But i think my question is valid, why would a people who do not keep the Hebrew calender, who live on the northwest coast of British Columbia on Haida-Guai (the Queen Charlot Islands) keep the Passover or the feast of Tabernacles? the winds and rain would blow over any booth of branches. You are right that a vister has to keep the laws of the country he is in. when My brother first went to Saudi Arabia to work for ARAMCO, he had long hair. The first time that he drove a car in Saudi, he was pulled over, because he was mistaken for a woman because of his hair, and it is ilegal in Saudi for a woman to drive a car. .................... You implied that Lev.23 applies to all people not just Israel; that all men everywhere are obliged to obey everything that is written in Lev. 23. That includes the Haida, the Cree, the Hurons, the Nishga ect. |

139 | LET'S LOVE ONE ANOTHER? | Rom 12:14 | meusing | 43439 | ||
Rom 12:14 Bless those who persecute you [who are cruel in their attitude toward you]; bless and do not curse them. Rom 12:15 Rejoice with those who rejoice [sharing others' joy], and weep with those who weep [sharing others' grief]. Rom 12:16 Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty (snobbish, high-minded, exclusive), but readily adjust yourself to [people, things] and give yourselves to humble tasks. Never overestimate yourself or be wise in your own conceits. [Prov. 3:7.] Rom 12:17 Repay no one evil for evil, but take thought for what is honest and proper and noble [aiming to be above reproach] in the sight of everyone. [Prov. 20:22.] Rom 12:18 If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Rom 12:19 Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave the way open for [God's] wrath; for it is written, Vengeance is Mine, I will repay (requite), says the Lord. [Deut. 32:35.] Rom 12:20 But if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals upon his head. [Prov. 25:21, 22.] Rom 12:21 Do not let yourself be overcome by evil, but overcome (master) evil with good. |

Some churches 'reformed' believe that infant baptism has replaced circumcision as a symbol of entering the Church of God. Others believe that baptism is a person's identifying himself with what has been done in the new birth as a symbol of new resurrected life. |
