1221 | Empty inside being a Roman Catholic? | James 2:17 | jlpangilinan | 24768 | ||
Catrose62 I saw many advice for you, they are great. I hope you have time to read mine. Convincing other people to change thier belief is very hard without the interventions of Holy Spirit. My question to you is what is your religion, what are your doctrine in your own church? You can convince other people that your believed is true not because you are very good in the debate, or you almost know what is written in the bible, but by setting your self as an example. If we other people think that our faith is the true is just show it to them. We can convince them if they saw that we really follow the doctrine of a true Christian, it is really in our daily life. If you are a baptist or a pentecostal show it to him that your believed is true not by telling him that his believed is wrong but to show him the fruit of a true Christian. Pray for him ask the guidance of the Lord (I know you do) I am not a catholic, at in my own views what I can say yes we notice of too many different of thier doctrines, but then it is God will justify of us all! We cannot say that all of them will go to heaven or go to hell it is only God can justify that. I have many friends belongs to that congregations and they are good persons, so I always pray for them, God has his own way of justifying people, it is in His hand. If your husband saw that people from your congregation did the right things always, it is not hard to convince your husband to change his belief. He himself will notice the beauty of your congregation and then if he realize that he himself will ask you to help him how to practice your believed. What can say is"show him the fruit of a true christian. True Christian cannot recognize as a good debater or a good preacher but as a good fruit, because it was mentioned in the scriptures that: Mt 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. Mt 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. I am not telling that you are not doing what I mentioned here. Just a friendly reminder. We in our congregation we are not really imposing that we are the right, but we tried to show the good fruit of it. God bless, Johnny |

1222 | does God know all things? Genesis 22:12 | James 2:21 | jlpangilinan | 80209 | ||
Ray, Can you show me the verse that stated that God knew the result even before He tested the faith of Abraham? If God really knew everything how can you explain this verses: Ge 18:20 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous; Ge 18:21 I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know. Can you show based on this verse that God knew already the things that He want to know at sodom before going down. God bless, |

1223 | does God know all things? Genesis 22:12 | James 2:21 | jlpangilinan | 80282 | ||
Do you suggest that what you picture in your mind is not pictured by the author of the book? Moses wrote this way: Ge 18:20 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous; Ge 18:21 I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know. The Lord said this to abraham. "and if not, I will know" The Lord said not He knew it already, moses wrote the same thing. If the Lord said that to abraham "and if not, I will know" but He knew it already does this God a liar God? If moses knew that God knew it already then he still wrote that way, moses is a liar too. If moses wrote that way because he dont know if the Lord God knew already about the cry of sodom, then it seem that you are better than moses because you you know that the Lord knew it already the things that moses did not. Again you did show me the passages that the Lord knew it already even before He go down. I want to focus on that verses. God bless, |

1225 | do teachers agree on issue of lost salva | James 3:1 | jlpangilinan | 55508 | ||
Salvation when you received it is impossible to lose it. I think salvation is not a simple thing that sometime you have it and lost again and again. But we have to be reminded that being save is between you and God. The question is are we really saved. If we are save, we are belong to the flocks of Christ, and no one can fluck us from His father hands: Joh 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: Joh 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. Joh 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. So if you are save, how can you lose it if is Christ gave the assurance that no one can pluck them out from His Fathers hand? The questions maybe raise that how about those person that sometimes being a member of the church received baptism but after a while become a backslider? If we notice those person sometime become worse than before, they commit horrible crimes such us rape, murder, and other form of evil that only not save person can do? The question again is are they really recieved the salvation? Here I cannot judge them only God can justify that. Here is my explaination regarding that. If we are a save person it is impossible for us to commit those evil thing because as Paul said: Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. If we received salvation it is Christ live in us, if Christ live in us it is impossible to lose salvation once you received it. I hope it would help God bless, Johnny |

1226 | Are we told to pray for leaders | James 5:16 | jlpangilinan | 18774 | ||
Yes we told told to pray one for another: Jas 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Not just for our leaders but also for our enemies: Mt 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; Thanks, Johnny |

1227 | Did Jesus go to hell? | 1 Peter | jlpangilinan | 80324 | ||
Yes! His dead body remain in "hell" or grave in three days. Lu 24:46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: One of the many definition of "hell" is Sheol or grave: (1.) Sheol, occurring in the Old Testament sixty-five times. This word sheol is derived from a root-word meaning "to ask," "demand;" hence insatiableness (Pr 30:15-16). It is rendered "grave" thirty-one times (Ge 37:35; 42:38; 44:29,31; 1Sa 2:6, etc.). Quote "He says to the man next to Him that he will be with him in paradise" end of quote, it seems that luke 23:43 means that He promise to the person "today" now that this person will be with Him in paradise. You are right that he rtemains in grave in three days after that Christ resurrected. It is a promise my friend not on that hour itself. God bless, |

1228 | Why so many destined for Hell? | 1 Pet 2:8 | jlpangilinan | 70298 | ||
God not create people to send to Hell. Hell is reserved for the devils: Mt 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: God created Adam and Eve out of love: Jo 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. Because God is Love He want to express His love, as love without expressing it is not love at all but selfisness. So God want to express His love He created us to share with His glory. Hell is not the part of the plan of God for man, if we read the Gen God prepared a very good habitat for man, no sickness, no death. Because God is Love He created human being with free will not like a robot but a human being "created in his likeness" a human being that have a power to choose and to love. Death and suffering is a consequences of disobedience of adam and eve. If our love one will suffer forever it is in the hand of God He is just If we remember that there were no more suffering in Heaven: Re 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. So if we are in heaven, then we sorrow about our love ones in hell, Re 21:4 will be a lie, as it was written there will no crying. God is justice, maybe we dont decern anything happened, we dont know really everything in the minds of God, but faith will help us, and He will show to us everything if we are in heaven. This questions of ours will be answered 1Co 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. God bless, Johnny |

1229 | Was Jesus a captive? | 1 Pet 3:19 | jlpangilinan | 21948 | ||
Speakdtruth, I really like your answer to I think it was your question also. I have a friend whom belong to Jehovas Witnessess, and thier beleived that Jesus Christ Died both Body and Spirit. I would like to take this opportunity to raise this question for you and I am very greatful if you can explain my querry. First of all I would like to know if for you is the death of spirit of Jesus Christ, meaning no existence? My question are: If the spirit of Jesus Christ died how he can he preach in hell? 1Pe 3:18 ¶ For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: 18. 1Pe 3:19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; Also it was mentioned that God cast angels into hell: 2Pe 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; If Jesus Christ did not exist when He decended to hell? why the rich man exist. I dont think Jesus Christ will teach different from reality? Here in the next passages, in the parables of Jesus Christ when the rich man died he tormented in hell, meaning he exist there because he feel the fire of hell? Lu 16:22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; 22. Lu 16:23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 23. Lu 16:24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. It is not a debate, I am also sometimes tormented to this kind of circumstances. speak the truth, Johnny |

1230 | Was Noah's flood world-wide? | 1 Pet 3:21 | jlpangilinan | 62904 | ||
In the two verses below it was written that God brought flood upon the earth and destroy all flesh which is the breath of life. When God said destroy "all" meaning all, not just in the particular area. If we have believed in Him when bible said world wide we have to believed that it is true otherwise what is it we believed in? Gen 7:17 Then the flood came upon the earth for forty days, and the water increased and lifted up the ark, so that it rose above the earth. Gen 6:17 "Behold, I, even I am bringing the flood of water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life, from under heaven; everything that is on the earth shall perish. I believed that the flood is world wide, I believed that God can do it. If we have a scienctific evidence about that flood even science can prove that can possibly happen. But if you really believe in the word of God why seeking for the scientific evidence? Just believe! God bless, Johnny |

1232 | How did baptism heal naaman of leprosy? | 1 Pet 3:21 | jlpangilinan | 75816 | ||
Emmaus, Did someone baptize naaman? I quoted the verse here regarding naaman, he dripped himself to the water, can he baptize himself? 2Ki 5:10 And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean. 2Ki 5:14 Then went he down, and dipped himself seven times in Jordan, according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean. |

1234 | Disciperlami, Did Noah's 8 get wet? NO | 1 Pet 3:21 | jlpangilinan | 77791 | ||
Disciplerami, There are people saying they dont like the music, but afterwards saw them dancing in the said music. If searcher56 really against water baptism, then he against the teaching of Christ, if then they obseving water baptism in thier congregation, he maybe dance in the music that he didnt like. Water baptism indeed is commandment of Christ why keep attacking it.: Joh 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. He said that why hard to us to just follow it. Christ subject Himself to be baptized by John, I dont think Christ will do that if it is not important. Mt 3:13 ¶ Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. Do they think just do that for nothing? What do yout think. Bible written not to subject by reader conscluions, but to believed it. God bless, |

1237 | Disciperlami, Did Noah's 8 get wet? NO | 1 Pet 3:21 | jlpangilinan | 78440 | ||
once again I would like to take a look with the verse that paul said. Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: I am very agree with that verse, its explain that the salvation is free, it is clear that Jesus done His part to gave His grace to us. Others would say that we dont need "good works" but it not written in that verse that we dont need "good works" "works" (it could be works of law) because we created to for good works. Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. If we just continue reading in Eph 2:10 this is was we see "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. "we are created unto good works" are we really need not to do good works? and what we are going to do bad? Paul explain in 1cor 13:1 that even he has all the faith but without works he like a "or a tinkling cymbal" 1Co 13:1 ¶ Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And James 2:17 supported that by saying Jas 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Finally paul said this 1Co 13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. I really like this statement of paul "I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing" The same apostle that wrote eph 2:8 and 2:9 that say "we save by grace through faith" explain the importance of "good works" to our faith. He said even he "all the faith" that can remove mountains, but without charity "I am nothing" Paul himself show us the importance of "good works". This like what baptism do with our faith, ananias encourage paul to be baptise. to wash away sin. Ananias never said that faith only will wash your sin. Ac 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. We ahve many things we could agree on this, Bible is written to believed and not to subject in anyone conclusions. God bless, |

1238 | what is the doctrine of Nicolatitans? | 2 Pet 2:15 | jlpangilinan | 73804 | ||
wELCOME TO THE FORUM! Nicolaitanes The church at Ephesus (Re 2:6) is commended for hating the "deeds" of the Nicolaitanes, and the church of Pergamos is blamed for having them who hold their "doctrines" (Re 2:15). They were seemingly a class of professing Christians, who sought to introduce into the church a false freedom or licentiousness, thus abusing Paul's doctrine of grace (comp. 2Pe 2:15-16,19), and were probably identical with those who held the doctrine of Baalam (q.v.), Re 2:14.

1239 | light fellowship with one another? | 1 John 1:7 | jlpangilinan | 68628 | ||
I dont know if you are looking for this passages or you are asking the explaination in this verse. Walk in light, we have to follow Christ, to have fellowship with one another, here we need our co churches to have fellowship with them to help one another increase our faith, through the help of one another. 1Jo 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 1Jo 1:8 ¶ If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness God bless, Johnny |
||||||
1240 | Can a born again sin as they did before? | 1 John 1:8 | jlpangilinan | 67777 | ||
No! If you received Christ as your personal savior and being born again, you cannot do any sin that you usually do, That is why you called born again, because youre been born again. Paul said in this passages, if Christ within you you live Christ and not yours. Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. If Christ live in you, how could you do a sin like we did before. For example if I am a rapist, become a born again, then Christ live with me, if Christ live with me how could I raped again. If will do that again meaning Christ is not live in me, and I am not really beeing been born again. God bless, Johnny |
