142 | Saturday or Sunday? | Bible general Archive 4 | Tamara Brewington | 203733 | ||
Whichever version of the Bible you own see Romans 14:5-12 where it says that each person regards one day above another according to his conscience and that it does not matter which day you worship. If you become a Seventh Day Adventist you will end up believing that your salvation depends on keeping all of the Old Testament Law, a concept which is contrary to the entire book of Romans. The Sabbath did not change, Christians in Acts met on the first day of the week, the day Jesus rose to honor Him. Nowhere does it say in the New Testament that you can be saved by good works and law keeping. You are saved by grace alone, by faith alone, or you aren't saved at all. Not hard to figure out if SDA's are saved is it? | ||||||

151 | Which One IsThe Correct Way of Baptism? | 1 Cor 12:13 | Tamara Brewington | 203721 | ||
Not one of these scriptures says to be baptized more than once by water and every one is baptized automatically by the spirit, see Ephesians 1:13,14 for proof. The idea of infant batism stems from the erroneous belief that people get saved by the act of baptism apart from first believing in Christ (Methodist, Presbyterians)because of Acts 2:38 where it says to repent and be baptized for forgiveness of sins. So they believe that the act of Baptism does the trick rather than a true profession of faith in Chrsit. The idea of full immersion stems from dying down into the grave like Jesus and coming up out of the grave and rising from the dead like Jesus and usually the words, "baptized into the death and resurrection of Jesus" are used at a full immersion baptism. Kinda hard to go down into death while you get sprinkled... And kinda strange that getting sprinkled could have the power to save without going down into death fully and rising from the dead fully, which is one reason why the Church of Christ refuses to baptize young children(besides that children can't confess Christ which they do believe has preliminary power leading to salvation by baptism), but they do believe the dunk in the water does the saving... | ||||||
152 | Widows and remarriage | 1 Cor 7:39 | Tamara Brewington | 203717 | ||
A widow is allowed to marry any free Christian, but not a divorced person... She is free to remarry, but he isn't.. Refer to Mathew 19:9 where it says that whoever marries a divorced person commits adultery. And see Mark 10:11 where it says that whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery. The issue is not whether a widow can remarry, of course you could, the issue is whether or not a divorced person could remarry and no they can't. | ||||||

155 | God | John 14:27 | Tamara Brewington | 203711 | ||
Psalm 1:3,4, Psalm 90:17, Proverbs 6:2-11, Psalm 102:16-18, Psalm 61:2, Psalm 69:1-3, Proverbs 25:20, Mathew 5:3-9. Try praising the Lord with out loud singing, sounds weird, but try it. Even if you end up crying with tears running down the back of your throat and snot flying, try it. I was mentally ill for a long time and I had to praise the Lord until I was vommitting on an empty stomache to get through it all. They diagnosed me as Bipolar Schizophrenic and I went through hell. I finally gave up and said Lord, I can't function anymore and threw the pills out and dedicated it to Him, three months later I was completely healed forever. Don't try this if you have not heard in your heart to do it, chemical imbalances are hard to beat. But God lives in our praises coming out of our mouths, you will find that it will be hard for the devil to operate while you are being inhabited by the Spirit of God in your praises. But the devil will fight and you will get physically ill, don't give in to your flesh trying to stop your praises, keep going until you get delivered. It may take years of praise, but God can do this, if He did for me, He can for you. | ||||||
156 | dead in christ shall rise first | 1 Thess 4:16 | Tamara Brewington | 203707 | ||
This means physical; the dead are already in heaven in spirit because II Corinthians 5:8 says, that Paul would rather be absent from the body and at home with Christ. What happens at the rapture is that the dead bodies will rise and be changed and reunited with the spirits of the saved who will be meeting them in the air with Christ. And then the live saints will be caught up into the air and changed as well. Try seeing the whole thing in context, see verses 15 and 17 to get the picture in full. | ||||||
157 | Acts 13:1 | Bible general Archive 4 | Tamara Brewington | 203706 | ||
Your choice of scripture leaves one wondering how it relates to SDA? SDA believes that when people died their souls go to sleep and that they do not go to heaven until the rapture. This belief cannot make or break your salvation it is just not based on the totatlity of what scripture teaches about death for the believer. They take this belief from I Timothy 4:14 where it says that God will bring with Him those that have fallen asleep in Jesus. But sleep often refers to death in the New Testament and this scripture simply means whoever died in Christ will have their dead body raised in the rapture (see verses 15,16 to get the proper context). They also believe that a person gets to heaven after being saved by living a life of good works and that a profession of believing in Christ is not enough to get into heaven. They base this beleif on James 2:18-20 where it says I will show you my faith by my works and that faith without works is useless. They aslo base this belief in keeping all the Old Testament Law in disregard of all of Romans where it teaches that the law cannot get you into heaven. They are law keepers and do not believe in salvation by faith alone, by grace alone. They believe in salvation by believing in Jesus and convenant keeping and for this reason they keep the Sabbath, which is Saturday. This is because the 10 Commandments say to keep the Sabbath Holy to the Lord as a perpetual statute. They believe that if you don't keep the Sabbath, but instead worship God on Sunday, you have the mark of the beast, but they have no scripture for this, they just believe it. Seventh Day Adventist therefor qualifies as a cult rather than as a sect of Christianity. | ||||||
158 | any difference between Jesus and Christ? | John 20:31 | Tamara Brewington | 203705 | ||
Your question was unclear, somehow I think that the obvious answer is not quite what you are looking for. Christ is the Greek word for the Jewish word that means Messiah, although the Hebrew word for Messiah is not used in the Old Testament. The concept is there in Isaiah and other prophetic writings which speak of the one who will come and set up his kingdom on earth as the deliverer, which is the Jewish Messiah. There are two prophecies in Isaiah giving this Messiah a name, "Immanuel" meaning,God with us which is what Jesus became, God with us. The name Jesus is Greek for Iesous in Hebrew and is just a common name. Is this what you needed to know? Or were you asking if Jesus was actually the Christ, the Messiah who was promised to come? If that was your question, yes, and here is why, there are 350 prophecies from the Old Testament that came true in the New Testatment concerning the birth place, exact birth year, circumstances of birth, circumstances of life ministry (miracles), circumstances of manner and method of trial and death and resurrection from the dead of Jesus proving that He was the Christ Messiah. So yes in that sense there is a correlation between Jesus and the Christ and there is no difference between them they are one person. | ||||||
159 | explanation to rev:1-3 | Revelation | Tamara Brewington | 203703 | ||
Revelation 13:1-3, verse 1: the dragon is Satan and he was standing amongst the multitude of people (sea shore), the beast is the Anti-Christ the person and he was coming up out of the nations (sea) and he has authority over seven nations and ten kingdoms and he has blasephemous names written on his authority. Verse 2: the Anti-Christ was full of the power of the nations and Satan gave him his power and his seat of authority in the world. Verse 3: The Anti-Christ or one of the heads of a part of his kingdom (theologians are in disagreement as to which)is literaly slain and then literaly is raised from the dead in a mockery of the rising of Jesus from the dead. And because of this evil miracle by the power of Satan, rising from the dead of Anti-Christ or his head of state will cause the whole earth to be amazed and they will follow him (verse 4 then says they will worship him, which is why most theologians say it will be the Anti-Christ who will rise from the dead and not a memeber of his courts). | ||||||
