142 | trapped in marriage | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 49844 | ||
Fornication is Bibical grounds for divorce, however the scripture I provided seems to indicate that the once divorced, any one marrying the one divorced commits adultery, so re-marriage would then be out of the question, except in the cause of the death of the spouse Matt 5:32 But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery. Matt 19:9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except [it be] for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery. 1Co 7:10 ¶ And unto the married I command, [yet] not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from [her] husband: 11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to [her] husband: and let not the husband put away [his] wife. 1Co 7:39 ¶ The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord. |

I would just like to add this. What denomination did Christ Jesus claim to be of? What did Paul say about denominationalism in 1 Cor. 10-17? Did he approve of it? |

145 | thou hast left thy first love | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 50926 | ||
I tried a search on this in this forum, but I came up empty, I would like to see the various thougts from those who participate in this site on what "first love" in revelation means. And the whole meaning of that verse as well | ||||||
146 | thou hast left thy first love | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 50934 | ||
Dear Mommapsbs; Thank you; I found the previous response concerning "first love" I also noticed for the first time how the Amplified Version of the Bible renders this verse which if accurate, clarifies what is meant by this verse. Here is the Amplified Version redition of Rev. 2:4 - Revelation 2:4 But I have this [one charge to make] against you: that you have left (abandoned) the love that you had at first [you have deserted Me, your first love]. I notice that it states: "you have left (abandoned).... (deserted) Me, your first love." So that means they have deserted Jesus who is the one who gave this revelation to John. Therefore Jesus is what is intended by the words "first love" The church of Ephesus were in the process of leaving and abandoning Jesus, their first love. However they were given time to repent, (2:5) and if they failed to do so, then their candelstick (which I think refers to Christian witness, testimony, or influence in that area in which they resided) would be removed. |

Yes God's word gives us word's of encouragement as well as words of warning. After each of the seven letters to the seven churches of Revelation, comes the statement 7 times as to certain promises to those who persevere. or as the KJV says "To him that overcometh" Many are the promises to the overcomers. | ||||||
148 | thou hast left thy first love | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 50942 | ||
So your saying they were merely going through the motions of churchianity and religiousity, without the empowerment of God's Holy Spirit. Is that correct? | ||||||
149 | thou hast left thy first love | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 50971 | ||
Are some people doing what they do without the fire (fire to me meaning, without the empowerment of God's Holy Spirit). | ||||||

Thank you Robert for your helpful reply. In your reply you said "I believe the lampstand is the Lord's presence in their midst" That leads me to ask; If the lampstand is removed from their presence, does that mean that the Lord's presence departs from their midst? And without the Lord's presense are they not merely "organized religion" What you stated reminds me of the following quote I post for you. “When the Holy Spirit withdraws, ... he sometimes allows the forms which he has created to remain. The oil is exhausted, but the lamp is still there; prayer is offered and the Bible read; church going is not given up, and to a certain degree the service is enjoyed; in a word religious habits are preserved, and like the corpses found at Pompeii, which were in a perfect state of preservation and in the very position in which death had surprised them, but which were reduced to ashes by contact with the air, so the blast of trial, of temptation, or of final judgement will destroy these spiritual corpses.” (Pastor G.F. Tophel) Love and Peace |

Robert; By your response, I think we both would agree then that there is such a thing as a false profession. Speaking of false professor's didn't our Lord Jesus mention them in the following verses? Matt. 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Titus 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny [him], being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. |

153 | Pre-Wrath Rapture? | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 56043 | ||
Parousia: In my early Christian life, the Pre-trib rapture position was drummed into my noggin by preachers, radio programs, and books, and Sunday school teachers. The more I studied God's word the more things I saw that made me begin questioning the Pre-trib position. For instance God's word says Jesus delivered us from the wrath to come 1 Thess. 1:10 and 1 Thess. 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, I began seeing that there is a difference between tribulation and wrath It appears to me that tribulation is Satan's wrath against God's people And the wrath of God is that which will come upon the ungodly and those who do not obey the gospel. 2 Thess. 1:7-9 I believe the timing of the rapture is clearly mentioned in Matthew 24 Mt 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. In verse 29 we see that it says "Immediately AFTER the tribulation," what would take place is as follows: 1.all the tribes of the earth shall see the Son of man coming - again notice it says immediately AFTER the tribulation, not before, or in the middle of it.(verses - 29-30 refer to His second coming) 2. And then shall the gathering of the elect take place. verse 31 (we see that the elect are still here after the tribulation) Even in the parable of the wheat and the tares we see that the tares are gathered before the wheat - not vice versa. "Gather ye together first the tares," Matthew 13:30 These reasons and others which I have not mentioned are Bibical proof to me that the Pre-tribulation rapture theory was not the teaching of the early church, but is a more recent theological invention. Just thought I'd share a few thoughts on this topic with you and others who may be interested. May God bless you New Creature |

154 | LEFT BEHIND? | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 60127 | ||
I saw Tim LaHaye being interviewed on a Christian television program. The host of the show, asked Tim LaHaye, "what percent of the Left Behind" series is fact, and what percent is fiction." Tim LaHaye, thought for a second and replied; "I would have to say, 50 percent is fact, and the other 50 percent is fiction. As for me: I have never read any of the Left Behind books. |

Pastor Glenn: I took the liberty to read your profile. In it you stated. "I believe in preaching deliverence, holiness and sactification." Concerning that statement, I would like to ask you a question or two if you don't mind. 1) What is your definition of sanctification, and is it a complete or incompleted act within the believer? 2) What is the difference between holiness and sanctification? blessings New Creature |

Hank Thank you I personally agree with the first half of your statement, but not with the second half. Concerning the sermon on Heb. 6:4-6 from Spurgeon that you recommended. I am familar with it, and have read it several times. But without going into all the details, by no means can I say that I totally agree with everything Spurgeon said in that sermon.

Robert I respect your thoughts and the time you've taken to respond however this is how I read it. They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for awhile believe, and in time of temptation FALL away. (Lk. 8:13 also Mark 4:16-17) Fall in the above verse is the greek word aphistemi, which means to depart, or apostatize from ones once held profession of faith. In the above verse notice: 1. they hear the word 2. they receive the word with joy 3. But they have no root (this refers merely to the shallowness of their faith, or lack of depth) 4. They believe for awhile 5. Then FALL away (they don’t endure to the end) However they were believers for a time who did become apostates Blessings |
