1241 | Please provide any commentary on Ps 84:5 | Ps 84:5 | jlpangilinan | 17614 | ||
We are to consider the heavens, that man thus may be directed to set his affections on things above. What is man, so mean a creature, that he should be thus honoured! so sinful a creature, that he should be thus favoured! Man has sovereign dominion over the inferior creatures, under God, and is appointed their lord. This refers to Christ. In Heb 2:6-8, the apostle, to prove the sovereign dominion of Christ, shows he is that Man, that Son of man, here spoken of, whom God has made to have dominion over the works of his hands. The greatest favour ever showed to the human race, and the greatest honour ever put upon human nature, were exemplified in the Lord Jesus. With good reason does the psalmist conclude as he began, Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth, which has been honoured with the presence of the Redeemer, and is still enlightened by his gospel, and governed by his wisdom and power! What words can reach his praises, who has a right to our obedience as our Redeemer? Johnny |

1242 | Can brain damage lead to damnation? | 1 John 1:9 | jlpangilinan | 17536 | ||
In the court of law, we know that if any person commit crime but after a several investagation found this person has a mental illness this person is going to be aquited or to be turnover to agencies that will take care the person. I'll quoted some verses here: Heb 5:13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. I quoted this verse, because sometimes we acquited persons that has a mental illness because we consider them like a child, a child that doesent know righteousness. In my point of view is this. If we (human) can do this kind of exemption, do you think God of all mercy will do? My answer for those kind of case it is in the hand of our God, that can justify everything. Johnny |

1243 | What do you think Moses plan was? | Hebrews | jlpangilinan | 17434 | ||
I think Moses has no organized plan. If we read the life of Moses he simply follow the Lord to rescue his people from bondage. Who is Moses? After he slain some Egyptian He Moved by fear, Moses fled from Egypt, and betook himself to the land of Midian, the southern part of the peninsula of Sinai, probably by much the same route as that by which, forty years afterwards, he led the Israelites to Sinai. He was providentially led to find a new home with the family of Reuel, where he remained for forty years (Ac 7:30), under training unconsciously for his great life's work. Suddenly the angel of the Lord appeared to him in the burning bush (Ex 3:1-22), and commissioned him to go down to Egypt and "bring forth the children of Israel" out of bondage. He was at first unwilling to go, but at length he was obedient to the heavenly vision, and left the land of Midian (Ex 4:18-26). On the way he was met by Aaron (q.v.) and the elders of Israel (Ex 4:27-31). He and Aaron had a hard task before them; but the Lord was with them (ch. 7-12), and the ransomed host went forth in triumph. (See Exodus.) After an eventful journey to and fro in the wilderness, we see them at length encamped in the plains of Moab, ready to cross over the Jordan into the Promised Land. There Moses addressed the assembled elders (De 1:1-4; 5:1-26:19; 27:11-30:20), and gives the people his last counsels, and then rehearses the great song (De 32:1-52), clothing in fitting words the deep emotions of his heart at such a time, and in review of such a marvellous history as that in which he had acted so conspicious a part. Then, after blessing the tribes (33), he ascends to "the mountain of Nebo (q.v.), to the top of Pisgah, that is over against Jericho" (Ex 34:1), and from thence he surveys the land. "Jehovah shewed him all the land of Gilead, unto Dan, and all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, unto the utmost sea, and the south, and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees, unto Zoar" (De 34:2-3), the magnificient inheritance of the tribes of whom he had been so long the leader; and there he died, being one hundred and twenty years old, according to the word of the Lord, and was buried by the Lord "in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Beth-peor" (Ex 34:6). The people mourned for him during thirty days. Thus died "Moses the man of God" (De 33:1; Jos 14:6). He was distinguished for his meekness and patience and firmness, and "he endured as seeing him who is invisible." "There arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face, in all the signs and the wonders, which the Lord sent him to do in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land, and in all that mighty hand, and in all the great terror which Moses shewed in the sight of all Israel" (De 34:10-12). The name of Moses occurs frequently in the Psalms and Prophets as the chief of the prophets. In the New Testament he is referred to as the representative of the law and as a type of Christ (Joh 1:17; 2Co 3:13-18; Heb 3:5-6). Moses is the only character in the Old Testament to whom Christ likens himself (Joh 5:46; comp. De 18:15,18-19; Ac 7:37). In Heb 3:1-19 this likeness to Moses is set forth in various particulars. In Jude 1:9 mention is made of a contention between Michael and the devil about the body of Moses. This dispute is supposed to have had reference to the concealment of the body of Moses so as to prevent idolatry. Sorry it is too long, but if you read those intorduction to Moses you will find out that he is Man of God and simply follow the will of God how he can have his on organized plan? Johnny |

1244 | who goes to heaven? | Rev 3:3 | jlpangilinan | 17433 | ||
We have no authority to Justify who is going to heaven. But in your question maybe i could give some guidelines mentioned of our Lord Jesus Christ. Re 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. He will come like a thief, so if you reject him when you grow old I think your not prepared for his coming. We have to stay on Him for the rest of our lives. observed his teaching and for that we have hope that he will counted us to go to heaven. I hope it would help Johnny |

1245 | What is your understanding? | John 17:26 | jlpangilinan | 17403 | ||
If you read the whole chapter 17 He (Jesus) is talking to his Father. If we all know that aside from saving us for our sin Jesus came on earth to do the will of the Father who sent Him. It is part of his mission and teaching to share the Love of God the Father. Please take a look of this verse: Joh 14:24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me. One of His (Jesus) mission is to made the name of the Father known to all people. (The teaching of the Father, the Love of the Father, so we also received the love of the Father that he Gave to his Begotten Son.)He mentioned that His doctrine is not His doctrine but it came from the Father. Joh 7:16 Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. Jesus follow not His own will but the will of the Father Mt 26:42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done. I hope it will help Johnny |

1246 | Was moses differn't from other babies | Exodus | jlpangilinan | 17152 | ||
Some introduction for Moses: In the New Testament he is referred to as the representative of the law and as a type of Christ (Joh 1:17; 2Co 3:13-18; Heb 3:5-6). Moses is the only character in the Old Testament to whom Christ likens himself (Joh 5:46 Aside from that, it is written in the scriptures s that Moses was exceeding fair, so he was different from his brother: Acts 7:20 In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father's house three months: If you will see introduction to Aaron is different: He is not exceeding fair but a man of a ready utterance. AARON He was to be the "mouth" or "prophet" of Moses, i.e., was to speak for him, because he was a man of a ready utterance (Ex 7:1-2,9-10,19). I hope it will help Johnny |

1248 | Who was Mary Magdeline? | Bible general Archive 1 | jlpangilinan | 17048 | ||
I hope you read my first answer already some additional about mary magdalene I metioned in my first answer that her surname came from magdala, the place of her nativity Debbie was right she is not sent to live in the dessert she lives in MAGDALA Magdala a tower, a town in Galilee, mentioned only in Mt 15:39. In the parallel passage in Mr 8:10 this place is called Dalmanutha. It was the birthplace of Mary called the Magdalen, or Mary Magdalene. It was on the west shore of the Lake of Tiberias, and is now probably the small obscure village called el-Mejdel, about 3 miles north-west of Tiberias. In the Talmud this city is called "the city of colour," and a particular district of it was called "the tower of dyers." The indigo plant was much cultivated here. Thanks Johnny |

1249 | Who was Mary Magdeline? | Bible general Archive 1 | jlpangilinan | 17047 | ||
Introduction to Mary Magdalene Magdalene a surname derived from Magdala, the place of her nativity, given to one of the Marys of the Gospels to distinguish her from the other Marys (Mt 27:56,61; 28:1, etc.). A mistaken notion has prevailed that this Mary was a woman of bad character, that she was the woman who is emphatically called "a sinner" (Lu 7:36-50). Some other verses mentioning her. Mt. 28:1 Mr. 15:40 Mr. 15:47 Mr. 16:1 Mr.16:9 Luke 8:2 John 19:25 John 20:1 John 20:18 Johnny |

1250 | Will Balaam go to Heaven? | Bible general Archive 1 | jlpangilinan | 17046 | ||
Some introduction to balaam Balaam lord of the people; foreigner or glutton, as interpreted by others, the son of Beor, was a man of some rank among the Midianites (Nu 31:8; comp. Nu 31:16). He resided at Pethor (De 23:4), in Mesopotamia (Nu 23:7). It is evident that though dwelling among idolaters he had some knowledge of the true God; and was held in such reputation that it was supposed that he whom he blessed was blessed, and he whom he cursed was cursed. When the Israelites were encamped on the plains of Moab, on the east of Jordan, by Jericho, Balak sent for Balaam "from Aram, out of the mountains of the east," to curse them; but by the remarkable interposition of God he was utterly unable to fulfil Balak's wish, however desirous he was to do so. The apostle Peter refers (2Pe 2:15-16) to this as an historical event. In Micah 6:5 reference also is made to the relations between Balaam and Balak. Though Balaam could not curse Israel, yet he suggested a mode by which the divine displeasure might be caused to descend upon them (Nu 25:1-18). In a battle between Israel and the Midianites (q.v.) Balaam was slain while fighting on the side of Balak (Nu 31:8). The "doctrine of Balaam" is spoken of in Re 2:14, in allusion to the fact that it was through the teaching of Balaam that Balak learned the way by which the Israelites might be led into sin. (See Nicolaitanes.) Balaam was constrained to utter prophecies regarding the future of Israel of wonderful magnificence and beauty of expression (Nu 24:5-9,17). After what he has done here in earth, what can I say only God can justify will balaam will go to heaven or not. No man can say to anyone if he is going to heaven or not only God. Johnny |

1251 | Why Solomon leaving God | 1 Kin 11:1 | jlpangilinan | 15729 | ||
First of all of course He is a normal man that can commit sin. If remember david committed sin also but he repented and accepted his mistake. Im sure Solomon as close to God he knows the laws of God even from the day of Moses. God reminded them not to have children from the nation sorrounded them to be thier wives because it turn them heart away from God. But Solomon ignore it by having 700 wives and 300 concuvines from different nations. 1 Kings 11:1-4 But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites; Of the nations concerning which the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love. And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart. For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was the heart of David his father. From those verses that I quoted stated that "His heart heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father." Maybe Solomon loved his wives more than God. Johnny |

1252 | I hope it would help | Gen 27:7 | jlpangilinan | 15431 | ||
steve, sorry for not getting back to you immediately. I quoted some verses here, maybe it would help. Genesis 25:30-34 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom. And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright. And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright. if you see from those verses that Esau, is not that after for his being the first born of Isaac. He sale his birth right to Jacob. |

1253 | Are women allowed to teach/preach? | 1 Tim 2:12 | jlpangilinan | 15003 | ||
First the verse that you mentioned is 1 Timothy 2:12-13 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. The way I understand it that woman is not allowed to be the HEAD OF THE CHURCH but they can teach and the same time they can preach. Please read this verse I quoted: Matthew 28:19-20 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. IN THE VERSE 20 JESUS MENTIONED THAT "Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:" WHAT IS IT THAT WE ARE GOING TO OBSERVE "ALL THINGS WHATSOEVER I HAVE COMMANDED YOU" AND IM SURE TEACHING IS INCLUDING TO "ALL WHATSOEVER I HAVE COMMANDED TO YOU" because Jesus Christ commanded His disciple to "teach" and when He "stated all nations" its include men and women. I hope you find my explaination helful Johnny |

1255 | Where did Jacob get the game? | Gen 27:7 | jlpangilinan | 14785 | ||
Steve, I think if we are going to read the whole chapter, when mother of Jacob heard Isaack will bless Esau, she told jacob to get to good kids of goat and make them savoury meat. During this time Esau is out hunting for the venison (wild animals as requested of his father) The whole chapter 27 also stated that Isaac surprise that Esau is to quick to find venison. Because Isaac dont know that it was Jacob who brought him the food. Genesis 27:7 Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before the LORD before my death. I hope I did answer your question. Johnny |

1257 | what does this mean Exodus 22:16 | Ex 22:16 | jlpangilinan | 14498 | ||
I don't know if I can answer what you would want to know. King James version: Exodus 22:16 And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife. IF YOU BOTHERED BY THE TERM "MAID" IT IS A MEDIEVAL TERM FOR "VIRGIN" OR "LADY" LIKE "MAID MARRIANE" IT MEANS "VIRGIN". I PUT HERE OTHER TRANSLATIONS I hope it would help: Ex 22:16 If a man seduces a virgin who is not betrothed and lies with her, he shall pay the "bride price" and marry her. I am also using King James Version, but sometimes if the term is very hard for me to understand I did consult other translation. I hope I answered your question. Ex 22:16 |

1258 | Did Jesus Christ break the Law of MOSES? | 2 Cor 9:1 | jlpangilinan | 14350 | ||
Steve, Thanks for your time, it is not my own choice, the teaching of our church is love offering, we are one of the few churches that taught those kind of doctrines. Our leader for example, He build a convention center worth 500M for the church from his own money. He encourage us to help him if we can give if we have nothing to give its okay. |
