121 | Denominations is shameful? | 1 Cor 3:4 | TheCurtMan | 92416 | ||
I’m no expert on the matter, but I believe what separate different denominations is their belief system. For example, you have one denomination that believes that the King isn’t just the King, but He’s the King of Kings. Another denomination believes that with a little good works, we ourselves can become Kings, and yet another denomination believes that the King isn’t who He say He is, He’s nothing more than a Prince. The reason that I said that I didn’t believe that this verse could be used to support different denominations is because Peter; Paul and Apollos were of the same belief; they were building on the same foundation. The only difference was what the church itself applied. If your spouse wants to quote a verse, then depending on the church you’re interested in, your spouse may need to find another verse, because your beliefs may differ. If your church doesn’t believe in going through Mary to get to Jesus, then your spouse needs another verse. I strongly suggest that you take the advice of Graceful and not let the adversary use this opportunity to further separate you and your spouse. I would also suggest a study on I Cor. 7. Not just a reading of it, but a study. Continue to be obedient to you marital commitments. Pray, and let God handle the situation. He will if you allow Him the time. I personally believe that He’s already working on it. Patience, time; and this too shall pass. The CurtMan |

122 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | TheCurtMan | 92410 | ||
I appreciate that, Curtman and consider it an opportunity to enlarge our discussion to get at the real issues of why Jesus Christ came to earth...other than 'just get people saved' Ken, I've been thinking about this one all night long, I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind telling me the REAL ISSUE of why Jesus came to earth...other than just get people saved.

124 | unrighteous shall not inhert the kingdom | Luke 16:18 | TheCurtMan | 92373 | ||
Fran1946, Will you please elaborate for me what you mean when you say that one is born into the Kindom of God. Shall I take this statement at face value, that a person can literally be born into Heaven, or were you implying something else. The CurtMan |

125 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | TheCurtMan | 92368 | ||
Oh, sorry I've gotten into the ice-cream without knowing what flavor it is. In other words, I'm sorry I've intervened in someone else's conversation. I've made the same mistake you did on a couple of occasions. Did you ever get around to asking Fran1946 to elaborate on being born into the Kingdom of God?? | ||||||
126 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | TheCurtMan | 92332 | ||
Correct me if I'm wrong on this thing, but I thought that your original question, "Where does it say that we are born into the kingdom of God" was based on your perspective that "Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people". Now, to my knowledge, I'm not aware of anyplace in the bible that says, one must be born into the Kingdom of God. However; you change your wording, and the implications are clear. Which is something we both can agree on, it can be found in the 3rd chp. of John. I'm not debating your perspective on this issue, I'm just clarifying why I answered the question the way that I did. Sometimes we know what we mean, we know what we want to say, we just choose the wrong set of words to get our point across. Saying exactly what you mean is highly important to some people, I'm not one of them. All I need is an idea of what you mean, and from there we can work out exactly what you mean. See what I mean?

127 | Denominations is shameful? | 1 Cor 3:4 | TheCurtMan | 92327 | ||
I mean no harm and disrespect, but would having the correct interpretation of this verse really be the solution that you're looking for?? Fact is, you did find a different church, and your spouse isn't too happy about that. And to answer your question, I'd have to say, 'NO' the original meaning of this verse isn't referring to denominational christianity. I truely pray that you will find what you're looking for.

128 | Born into the Kingdom of God? | Luke 16:18 | TheCurtMan | 92320 | ||
How about a different figure of speech?? You say Born into the Kingdom, and it's no telling what you might get. You say Born again, then just about everyone is on the same page. Heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people, like you said. Who are those prepared people? Try reading the 3rd chp. of John. the first 18 verses. Personally I believe it to be self explainitory, if not post your questions, and you will get an answer. The CurtMan |

129 | Children in Hell | Luke 16:22 | TheCurtMan | 92280 | ||
God's patience had finally ran its course. God showed that wicked nation grace for a number of centuries. Look at Genesis 15:12-16. God was promising the land of Canaan to Abram. He told him that the land would be his in about four hundred years. Why the wait? Partly because the iniquities of the inhabitants were not yet complete. When the timing was right, God sent in the Israelites to take over. There was a lot of bloodshed, yes. But if you would like to know why God wanted the Canaanites removed from the land, it was partly because God knew the Canaanites would have an effect on the Israelites and cause them to follow the same wicked ways they were being kicked outta the land for. For an example of this look at II Kings 17:5-23. Did they all go to hell including the babies? Rather the correct term is Hell; Hades; or the Grave, I have to say that personally I believe that they all did, even the babies. Four Hundred years is a long time for a nation to turn itself around and follow the laws of God. These people didn't care about God or his laws. The babies would have grown up in the same environment probably following the same sins that their fathers, and forefathers followed. God is the only one who really knows the could've and should've in an infants life. What is certain is that He annalated woman and children. Their eternal resting place I can only speculate on. And I have reason to believe that everybody went to hell. The CurtMan |

130 | Does speaking in tongues come naturally? | Acts | TheCurtMan | 92272 | ||
Justme If I'm understanding your question correctly, I'd have to say speaking in tongues come naturally. That is according to the first twelve verses of Acts chp. 2, almost everyone started speaking in a tongue, or language that most of them probably never studied in their lives. They were all understanding one another. That's probably one of the reasons why the event was so amazing. If I'm understanding things correctly, tongues is a gift, not a talent. A gift is something that is given to you, like salvation. A talent is something you develop through practice, like singing and dancing. How would you feel if suddenly you could speak Greek or Hebrew, a language that you never studied a day in your life? Not only speak it, but speak it well? That is what I believe the gift of tongues is; the ability to suddenly speak in a language you've never practiced. I'm looking at your question, and I think what you're asking is COULD this person speak in tongues without being taught? The answer is YES, speaking in tongues is a gift given by the Holy Spirit, I Cor.12:1-3. The CurtMan |

131 | Was Paul single or married? | 1 Cor 7:8 | TheCurtMan | 92212 | ||
Well Sal, I would suggest a job and a change of scenery, but you might take me seriously. A website is a wonderful study tool, but in my opinion a personalize bible is better. You do not need to depend on batteries or electricity, and there is never room for an upgraded solfware. Give it some thought. The offer will stands. The CurtMan |

Brother Hank, You've been married longer than I've been living. I am not beyond marrital counseling from someone with four decades of experience. Any problem with sharing some of your wisdom with me on occasions?? A man is not a island, even though on occasions I truley act that way. The CurtMan |

I would be very interested in sending you a study bible. The John MacAuthur Study Bible, in the New King James Version if you give me an address to mail it to. And maybe anyother book you may desire if my pockets allow it. I made a reference to a book that you probably do not have and can not obtain easily. My apologies. At the very lest, I can put that book in your hands. Contact me at The CurtMan000@AOL.Com. I can check with some other brothers and sisters who make a ministry out of putting the right resources in the hands who desire it. If it be the Lords will, we can probably send an entire libary to Italy. The CurtMan |

136 | Was Paul single or married? | 1 Cor 7:8 | TheCurtMan | 92107 | ||
Hank, I'm not quite sure how to put this one, but I wasn't saying that Paul DID have a problem with the way that God was running things, I was suggesting that if I was to correctly understand the point of view given me, that might be a conclusion that I would draw. Believe it or not Hank, I've been known to draw some inaccurate conclusions in my time. I wasn't so much suggesting biblical fact, but personal conclusion. This making any sense to you?? Before my post, I was having a difficult time believing that it was better to be single than to be married. I've been married ten yrs. Best thing that ever happened to me, therefore I was not comprehending that it is better to be single. |

Hey RM2, Forget my question, you're not going to belive what I just figured out. |

138 | What is a "carnal" Christian? | 1 John 3:10 | TheCurtMan | 92102 | ||
RM2, Actually I think that you've answered my questions quite well. Thanks. I've heard many different answers to a Carnal Christian, and some of them run borderline to a complete joke, nothing that one could actually take seriously. I do have one other question. How do I go by locating a question or comment by the reference no? Such as 91913? I had to take the long way around and it was quite time consumming. |

140 | question # 1 | Gen 1:2 | TheCurtMan | 91697 | ||
Suppose I wanted to be difficult, and took the story of creation, Gen. 1:2 the words Void, and Darkness and said the color was black. Or v.6 the word Water, the color was blue, would you accept any of these answers?? I wouldn't, but I figured I'd try you anyway. The CurtMan |
