141 | Correction | 1 Cor 8:5 | Glory Bound | 130948 | ||
Dear soul, you will only suffer if you lean on man. I have only known enough of the JW teachings to know without a doubt that it is not the teachings of my Lord Jesus Christ. Thus, like many, I shun them and their lies. If you are truly sincere in knowing Jesus as your Lord and savior, I would suggest, from all I have ever heard of them, GET AWAY FROM THEIR TEACHINGS, even if it means leaving your husband. If you are a truly convicted Christian, it may be that you could be the very tool God uses to convert your husband. BUT, do NOT listen to their teachings. If you don't have one, get a King James or New International Version of the Bible, read and study scripture for yourself. If you are not a Christian. If you are looking for the truth of Gods word, "get a King James or New International Version of the Bible, read and study scripture for yourself." You WILL learn the truth. You are looking for something. I have told you where to go to find it. You are as good and capable of studying the Word as any preacher. Listen, but do not depend on any man, or woman for truth. Learn it for yourself, then listen and learn from the knowledge "and the ignorance" of others. Please, do not reply to this note if, in any way you wish to defend the teachings of the JW. Keep in mind that, as in all professions, all who profess Christianity, do not nessisarily depict Christianity itself. I would put everyone in mind of what Paul stated in 2 Timothy 2:24-26. God Bless GB |

"Look within, be depressed. Look without, be distressed. Look above, be at rest." I never heard this said before, but it is sure that I never forget it. Who is Corrie ten Boom? GB |

143 | God's truth | 1 Cor 8:5 | Glory Bound | 131022 | ||
Remember the following dear soul. 1Co 7:14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy. 1Co 7:15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace. 1Co 7:16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife? Keep up the good fight, dear sister. GB |

PS.... My first cousin was married to a JW for many years. She is a Christian of the Pentecostal persuasion. He is now a devout Christian. Thank you for your inspiring note. When you spoke of your children, I choked up. My eyes welled up and I couldn't speak for the utter joy. GB |

145 | One God, One Jesus Christ | 1 Cor 8:5 | Glory Bound | 131027 | ||
Hi Tim. What is it that is said concerning the meat of the word, and "a time for everything"? Could "a time for everything" not include a time when one will be ready to learn a particular truth? GB |

146 | I am a new Christian and I am trying to | 1 Cor 11:31 | Glory Bound | 130608 | ||
Scripture states, and I paraphrase, "nothing of itself is sin." For example, some think it is sinful to eat this or that. Paul says that it is not what goes in to the mouth; it is what comes out of the mouth that is sinful, for it comes from the heart. In the case of gambling; it is not a sin just because it is gambling. Just like everything else though, it can become a sin depending on the circumstances. Scripture also states that “anything” done to the excess is sin. Many think that gambling is sinful because the soldiers cast lots for Jesus’ cloak. If this were true, the disciples would have been sinning when the cast lots to see who would replace Judas. Sin originates as a thought. An Evil desire which when acted on eventually rears the ugly head of sin. If you have doubts concerning what may or may not be sinful, ask yourself the question, would Jesus participate with me in this activity. If you think not, then “to you it is sinful.” This does not mean that it may be sin to another. Many will state, “Sin is sin”! To a degree, they are right. But I would state from scripture “to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. Jam 4:17. Try judging your own actions in advance… 1Co 11:31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. 1Co 11:32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

This would depend on ones definition of easy. Where have we heard this logic before? |

148 | "my tribulations...are your glory" | Eph 3:13 | Glory Bound | 128855 | ||
Jesus' suffering resulting from oppression or persecution and Calvary where His victory was sealed once and for all. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, When we consider the rejection and denial He endured, we should not loose heart. Likewise, when we ourselves endure such from our bretheren, we should think back to what He went through. GB |

150 | Was NT Written in Greek or Hebrew? 1 | Eph 3:19 | Glory Bound | 130615 | ||
Other than scripture itself I make no claim of authority concerning an answer to this question, however I would like to inject my thoughts on the matter. It seems that your question has a rather simple answer consisting in the answers to the following questions. (1 and 2) Who wrote the book in question and to whom was the book written? First of all, the NT is more than just one book. It is 27 books with a number of authors, written to various churches and individuals, combined under one name. It is just that; The New Testament. It reveals that which was concealed in the Old. It seems reasonable to assume that if Paul were writing to a Greek Church or individual, he would not use Hebrew. Likewise, if he were writing to a Hebrew Church or individual, he would not use the Greek language and writings. Label me as you wish, but I firmly believe that the learned spawn ignorance and division when they look beyond the simplicity of Gods Word and attempt to complicate it with such trivial and "off the path" matters. I only voice the overall thoughts of scripture. GB |
||||||
151 | Too many questions? | Eph 4:18 | Glory Bound | 130469 | ||
Perhaps your answer lies in the book of Titus 3:8-11 "NIV" But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless. Warn a divisive person once, and then warn him a second time. After that, have nothing to do with him. You may be sure that such a man is warped and sinful; he is self-condemned. GB |

152 | Too many questions? | Eph 4:18 | Glory Bound | 130578 | ||
I thought there was more meaning than was written. You should see the character "LJeffe" on the AOL Bible board. This person is very learned scripturally, but a classic example of one whos words condemn him. His posts portray self righteous hatred for everyone. He wouldn't last more than a dozen posts on this board before he would be booted. Thank goodness for this boards standards, AND its observances thereof. GB |
||||||
153 | Too many questions? | Eph 4:18 | Glory Bound | 130579 | ||
I think that phrase should be reworded. "There are no dumb "sincere" questions." Well, maybe there are... but it's a nice thing to say anyway. GB |

154 | Jesus and God co-equal? | Phil 2:6 | Glory Bound | 130236 | ||
Truly Tim, your words are inspired, for how could anyone have made it any plainer or put it any more simple? GB |
||||||
155 | What's in a name? | Phil 2:9 | Glory Bound | 132616 | ||
"What's in the name Jesus?" Servitude. Truth, honesty, sincerity, loyalty, charity. LOVE, redemption and SALVATION. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Act 2:21 GB |

156 | What is God's Son's name? | Phil 2:9 | Glory Bound | 132617 | ||
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isa 9:6 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. Isa 7:14 GB |

157 | What's in a name? | Phil 2:9 | Glory Bound | 132827 | ||
Assumptions are not scriptural. Please clarify your question and you will get a clearer answer. GB |

158 | All of that? | Phil 2:9 | Glory Bound | 132828 | ||
Is yours a loaded question, or are you serious? There is more in the name of Jesus than can be stated in such a short span of an individual life. GB |

159 | Rule or Ideal? | 1 Tim 3:2 | Glory Bound | 129962 | ||
I doubt you mean it this way, but your thought could very well escalate in the same manor. In such a day as this, your phrase "one woman man" reeks with the stench of the same arguments that grew to advocate same sex marriage. Your thought could very well be interpreted as anti marriage. I know what you appear to be saying, but personally I do not feel right debating a matter which, stated as you have put it, could very well be the opposite of what it appears. If your question is sincere, you might wish to word it a little differently, for I wouldn’t know whether to debate your thought, or light a fire under it. GB |
