121 | OT LAW ?? | Gen 26:5 | terrib | 150531 | ||
Hello swerv, 1. God was talking to Isaac and was telling him that He would do everything He promised his father, Abraham, because Abraham had done everything the Lord told him to do. Gen 17:1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect. Gen 17:2 And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. 2. So that the law would be a witness against the children of Irael. Deu 31:26 Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee. terrib |

Greetings Humble Pi, Time and time again, we see Christ in the Old Testament. Here is now different. Psa 2:8(KJV) 'Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance, And the very ends of the earth as Your possession. (All nations, Jews and Gentiles) Ask of Me and all things will be yours, the prayer of Jesus in John 17(KJV) comes to mind. Jesus asking that He resume His glory with the Father and that we might share in that glory. Through the obedience of the cross Jesus receives His inheritance.(Psa 2:8) So, in Eph 1:18(KJV) Paul prays that we, the saints, come to the understanding and knowledge of the fullness of our inheritance that is in Christ Jesus. In Psalms God says ask, Jesus asks and receives, Paul prays in Eph 1:17-18(KJV) that our hearts, not in our minds intellectually, be enlightened with a spirit of wisdom and revelation to know and to understand the greatness and the power of God toward us through Christ. That you may understand what is the glorious abundance of the spiritual things to which you are entitled, in consequence of being made children of God; for if children, then heirs, heirs of that glorious inheritance which God has provided for the saints - for all genuine Christians, whether formerly Jews or Gentiles. Eph 1:3(KJV) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: Hope this helps, terrib |

Dear reader, Interesting article given for "another perspective": Quoted from article: "...Are we to understand that Christ had just commanded his disciples to eat his flesh, then said their doing so would be pointless? Is that what "the flesh is of no avail" means? "Eat my flesh, but you’ll find it’s a waste of time"—is that what he was saying?..." Yes, that is exactly what He meant. For it is not in the flesh that we have eternal life but in the Spirit. The above article actually proves the Scriptures. Thank you Emmaus, Yes, another perspective indeed! terrib |

Greetings Jeanpierrelibre, Welcome! Concerning John 6:54: The subject matter has its start with (John 6:25) when the people were looking for Jesus and asked Him how He got across the sea. And Jesus perceived that they came for food (John 6:26). Thus starts a basis for the subject that your verse has to do with (the bread of life). John 6:27 - don't labor for things that perish. John 6:28 - then What shall we do? the people ask. John 6:29 - they were to believe in Him that God sent. John 6:30-31 - Then the people ask, If you are from God what can you do, for we follow Moses because he gave manna from heaven. Jesus then explains to them them that He is the Bread of Heaven and whomever partakes of Him shall not die. This continues down through (John 6:51) were Jesus tells them that He shall give His flesh and spill His blood for the world. And (John 6:53) except we partake of Jesus (believe in Him) we will not have eternal life. Therefore in John 6:54 Jesus is not saying that they should eat His body and drink His blood literally, but He is talking to them spiritually about accepting Him that He has come into the world to save the world by being the sin offering for us. And Jesus proclaims that what He has said is spirit and not flesh in John 6:63 "...the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life." The manna the Jews talked about only reserved and supported life, it did not preserve and perpetuate life, much less restore it; but Christ gives life to those that are dead in their sins. The manna was ordained only for the life of the Israelites, but Christ is given for the life of the world; none are excluded from the benefit of this Bread of Heaven. If we believe. Therefore, eat My flesh and drink My blood are words of spirit and should not be taken as literal canabalism. By the way, this event should not be confused with the institution of the Lord's Supper. But Jesus uses these same symbols, His flesh as the bread, and His blood as the wine, at that supper. They are spirit and life. Hope this helps, terrib |

Hi Matt, Now we are straying into a realm that this forum is not intended for. Counciling should be between God, you and probably your pastor. But, if Ben is your friend, let him see Christ living in you. And don't push. He will see something in you that he doesn't have and God will draw him. (Joh 6:44) "No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day." Live your life in front of him honestly and live your life out of his sight honestly. If you are hypocritical, he will see it. Other than this, I would talk with your pastor. And keep praying for him. terrib |

Hi Matt, "just out of interest, what is your position in the church, and what church do you follow?" My Spirit given gift is "Helps". It is what I have been best at, and I accept that. In the corporate world the position would be called a floater. I go where they need me. You can learn more in my profile, click on my underlined screen name. 1Co 12:28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. terrib |

135 | On earth in earth | Matt 6:10 | terrib | 150141 | ||
Hi Tim, Question for you about Greek prepositions. KJV Mat 6:10 "...Thy will be done in (epi) earth, as it is in (en) heaven. Could you explain the two usages of the word "in" in the above Scripture? Some translations use "on earth". The use of "on earth" seems to have an implication towards planetary or spherical and is impersonal compared to "in earth" which has an implication towards man, flesh, which is directly personal. Jesus always related the difference between flesh and spirit and here in the Lord's prayer I see the term "in earth" (flesh) as it is "in heaven" (spirit). Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Thanks, Your brother, terrib |

Hi Matt, You wrote: "sometimes i sin, without realising it whether its my mouth that gives me trouble (swearing) or something i may do against the lord" Just by what you said in this post, you are realizing it! You are growing in the Lord. Look at the disciples, it took them three years to learn just a little about God, and still they were not all convinced. We all learn at different rates and by how much we are willing to let the Lord direct our lives. Jesus said: Joh 14:13 I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. Joh 14:14 If you ask me for anything in my name, I will do it. Joh 14:15 If you love me, keep my commandments. Joh 14:16 I will ask the Father to give you another Helper, to be with you always. Joh 14:17 He is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, for it neither sees him nor recognizes him. But you recognize him, for he abides with you and will be in you. So, in your devotions, ask, ask the Lord to help you. If we truly seek His ways, He will answer. And, you have probably heard it said that a baby must learn to crawl before he can walk. All things have their place and time. God has plenty of time but we are the ones that are on limited time, so keep pressing forward. And always acknowledge what He has done for you and thank Him. terrib |

138 | why doesnt god have the power? | John 3:16 | terrib | 150108 | ||
Hi Matt, The very first essential thing to remember is that God is Holy.(Lev 21:8) Therefore, since God is Holy, He cannot lie and will not go back on any covenant that He makes. In other words, He cannot get out of a deal that He has made. "why is it, that if he loves everyone, that those who dont follow him go to hell?" In Genesis, He was with Adam and put it to him this way, "Look Adam, I have made you and put you in this beautiful place and you can do whatever you wish. The only thing I ask is you do not eat of this one tree. All these other things are yours for the taking. The first couple could do what they wanted, they could choose to play with the lion or the bear or a lamb and enjoy being gardeners and just enjoy life with God that God had given them. But, there was a contract, and since God made them, what could they do but accept the contract. Well, we know how the story goes, don't we. Man broke the contract. So, how do we repair what was done. Well, we can't, but God does love us so much He says, I will help them and give them another chance. I will give them my Son for an offering for their sins. (John 3:16). If they believe in this offering that I am giving them I will accept them back into the relationship that we first had and give them another chance and give them even more. I will send My prophets and preachers to them, Enoch, Noah, Moses, Elijah and more to let them know how to live rightly. I will show them great wonders. I will feed them and clothe them if they follow Me. But, I am still under My contract, "That the soul that sins will die, the contract I made with Adam." They have the choice between Good and evil. "how come satan has a lot more power as far as who gets saved goes?" Satan does have the power to bring things into our lives, example, Job, but we have the final say as to the choices we make. Job chose not to curse God even with his wife's nagging about it (Job 2:9). The willfulness of an evil life happens because the spirit or the conscience of the wicked has been seared shut (1Tim 4:2). Like an open wound, one would get a hot iron and close the wound, well that is what some have done with their conscience, they have sealed it up inside that they no longer listen to their own inner guide. They have become reprobate (without conscience thought of anything Godly), (Rom 1:28 "And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind..."). Again is comes to choice. God is continually calling, preachers are still calling, the forum is still calling and this continiual calling is the love of God, calling and calling, but some will not hear, so the contract must enforced. Does this help any? terrib |

Hi Matt, Glad you came by the forum. There is always someone here to help with Bible answers. At one stage or another in our lives we all have questions and this is a good place to try and find the answers that pertain to you in your walk with the Lord. In the meantime, while your thinking about that question, continue in your quest to get to know our Father and the Son, for He desires this also, and that is why He gave us His love letter - the Bible. Mat 6:9 "...Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name." Your friend, terrib |
