141 | The Seventh Day | Bible general Archive 2 | Rowdy | 120535 | ||
Generally throughout the Restoration, it is well recognized by many history books of that Restoration that there are 3 dinstinct categories of commands. I'll reproduce them here as best I can remember as I've studied this subject many times. 1) Imperatives directly from God's Word. I infer from your comment this is only category that you would accept but I'm afraid most christians would insist on a few more if they're forced to think about it logically. Examples here would be anything from the steps of salvation to the elements of modern worship, but there is so much more. 2) Commands by Examples. Here I'm talking about actions performed mostly by Apostles or at least by christians that were clearly endorsed by the Holy Spirit. Items that should be avoided in possible misinterpretation would be those like foot washing, anoiting of oil or exchange of holy kiss. These acts appear obviously as customs of their time and place, like our shaking hands. Examples of commands would be the day of worship and the appointment of elders and deacons. 3) Commands of inference. These are commands necessitated by common sense to carry out the other two above. I would stress these should be held to the minimum and must be considered necessary or the command being supported cannot be executed. An example here would be an accounting report in regular intervals to the elders so they can make wise decisions with the Lord's resources. Apparently, you would encourage me to expand on the 2nd command of example. It is perfectly logical for this kind of command to be inferred from God's Word. As I've been emphasizing in other previous posts, God expects us to grow in our spiritual development as well as our knowledge and handling of His Word. Toward this end, God set up the custom throughout the OT, of setting a pattern (example if you will). He had Noah build His ark to very exacting specifications as He did with Solomon and his building the Temple. Both of these were a foreshadow of things to come in the future. The ark as a perfect model of the church saving its occupants from a world of sin and the Temple as a perfect model of our own bodies as a modern dwelling place for the Holy Spirit. Another endorsement of the practicality of taking commands from the Apostles as examples is our own parenting of our kids. Maybe you're not a parent quite yet but believe me, when and if you become one, you'll appreciate the value of "commands by example." You may even now experience that appreciation from your own relationship with your parents. Neither God or any parent wants to dictate every little detail in the upbringing and training of their child(ren). In the same way, the Lord and His Apostles expect us to use our intellect, our common sense and infer certain commands from their activities, especially when those acts are done repeatedly and with some obvious purpose. In this case with the first day of the week being the day of worship in the abscence of their doing so on the Sabbath in the NT, the command is rather simple and easily inferred. This pattern of worshiping of Sunday is in stark contrast with the thousands of years of worship in the Temple with the OT. So you may begin to see why I issued this initial statement so matter-of-factly with no scripture in support. I thought this was a well recognized and very basic principle of Christianity. You know how we humans err with assumptions. I do hope this helps to clarify the issue and God bless. --Rowdy |

I have to agree with Searcher56. Although the Bible isn't ideally specific with this guidance as it seems to allow some leeway for our better judgment, it is better to serve and assemble with one congregation. I know...I've been a member of one congregation while visiting another one just a few miles away for the express purpose of finding a congregation more suitable to the needs and personality of both my wife and myself. I like to use the ole phrase of "Growing where God plants you." However, there's nothing wrong with transplanting oneself to another group but I do think expects us to make up our mind and become a solid asset to one group and become truly productive. You can't really do that if you're splitting up your time, effort and loyalties to more than one. Again, I must admit there's not a whole of scripture to guide us here, just some wisdom from those of us, "long in the tooth." Hope this helps and God bless. --Rowdy |

146 | Purpose of Prayer? | Bible general Archive 2 | Rowdy | 121166 | ||
I can only quote as follows from Jesus Himself Matt 6:5 "When you pray, you are not to be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners so that they may be seen by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. 6 "But you, when you pray, go into your inner room, close your door and pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you. 7 "And when you are praying, do not use meaningless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they suppose that they will be heard for their many words. 8 "So do not be like them; for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him. As you can see in verse 8 and that's the main point of my post as I've been taught: Since the Lord already knows what we want AND need, prayer really doesn't do that much good directly for Him. Although I can't think of a specific scripture that would say as much, I've been taught that prayer is really intended for our benefit. In principle I think we can draw on the example from God's giving of the Ten Commandments. Of those 10 wonderful commands, only the first four were directed to God for His direct glory, the latter six were really for the benefit of mankind so we could and would be motivated to glorify God. When we as human beings take the time and make the effort to pray to God on a regular basis, we build up our relationship with Him just as we do with our earthly parent. In so doing, we think about what we are saying and invest a considerable portion of time and effort in seeing the accomplishment of our requests. So what am I saying here? I'm glad you ask. I'm saying that just as our earthly parents expect us to fend for ourselves as much as possible, our God expects us to grow up spiritually, and realize we really have very few needs that go unmet and our desires really should be held to a minimum. Thus as our thinking AND our priorities align themselves closer and closer with God's kind of thinking and priorities, we realize He's taken very good care of us and will continue to do so throughout our lives. Of course this is based on our continued maintenance of this dialouge/relationship with Him AND maintaining a healthy relationship with His other children, our fellow christians. To understand this basic principle, one has to remember that God doesn't really need ANYTHING from us. He's all-powerful in every way imagineable. (I know you know this but sometimes we all forget.) People that spend much of their lives in prayer are the closest to God for they are the ones who also study His Word to seek out the answers. You see most of God's answers are in His Holy Book; I don't think we're going to get a lot of answers from God anywhere else. I'd be the last person in the world to absolutely eliminate this option but I think that God (again) really expects us to grow up and not rely on a special, specific and individual response to our prayer. He wants us to grow and realize He's the Father of this whole world and everything in it. You, me and all the other people in the world, we're just His creation. To quote a phrase: "He made us and He can take us out." We have to realize our puny place and rank in this gigantic world of God's, most especially His spiritual world. As I've said there's bare minimal amount of scripture I can offer in support of this statement but then you're used to that from me already, huh? Good question, there fella. Good to hear from you. I miss your responses to my posts. God bless. --Rowdy |

147 | 40 Days | Bible general Archive 2 | Rowdy | 121538 | ||
Surely, you didn't mean to say that Christ lived on the earth for 40 years as everyone knows he only lived for 33 years. I do hope you're going to say it was a typo of some sort. God bless. --Rowdy |
||||||
148 | 40 Days | Bible general Archive 2 | Rowdy | 121543 | ||
You're right of course. I guess the 33 year conclusion was probably based on historical evidence and the "approximating process" upon figuring the calender in the first couple of centuries. But surely 33 has got to be much closer than 40. I noticed now that BradK has questioned it so I'm going to let it go and let you and he deal with this controversy. I'll watch but thanks for the note. I'm a little embarrassed to admit I thought the 33 year age was based on some verses (combination of a couple) and upon trying to find it just now, I couldn't. Isn't it amazing how a thing like that almost dominates a person's composite knowledge of the Bible so much? I'm thankful I can learn something new every day. God bless you for correcting me. --Rowdy |

149 | Purpose of Prayer? | Bible general Archive 2 | Rowdy | 121627 | ||
Miss JW, Apparently you and the others of your faith are getting a lot of heat because of your background. I thought I'd try to help you and some others get to the actual root cause of all the controversy. You see, here at the Study Bible Forum, ALL of us believe in ALL of the Bible and the Bible's most emphatic point to us modern earth dwellers in this century is that Jesus Christ is the Living God in charge of this world. He came to this planet of sinful man for the express purpose of saving the souls of ALL mankind, past, present and future with His Perfect sacrifice of His own sinless body and life. IF a person come to the SBF to discuss and exchange views and ideas about all the above, it MUST be done WITH the acknowledgement of that previous statement being ABSOLUTE TRUTH. If we can't get that acknowledgement up front in advance from such a person, everything else is valueless and not really worthy of discussion by anyone, at least to those on the Forum. Now, I myself had absolutely nothing to do with drafting up the rules to the Forum but I try to abide by them. I know Hank and some of the others don't like it when I fail to cite book, chapter and verse when I make a statement but that's because I've cited it before in a previous post. Anyway, we ALL from an early age in life learn that we must play by the rules when we join an organization. Now your decision is really quite simple: either acknowledge the ABSOLUTE TRUTH of the statements above or refrain from posting statements of your own to the Forum. That of course DOES NOT mean that you can't read and enjoy the posts you see on the Forum. Also some of the folks on the Forum cite their own E-Mail address so you could attempt to communicate directly with them in that manner. Now the basic reason for this rigid requirement is simply to keep the Forum in some semblance of order and you know we're commanded to do that, 1 Cor 14:40. Without giving Christ His due according to His Last Will and Testament, we ALL do Him a serious dishonor and we would have to pay dearly for such an infraction at Judgment Day. There's one more subject of interest: Cults. There's been several questions back and forth about this and of course the word means different things to different people. But the one basic thing that it means to Forum participants is that a person who refuses to acknowledge the truth of Jesus as cited above would be considered to be a member of a cult. Now I realize that probably doesn't please you but I'm afriad that's a fact that's well reconized throughout the vast majority of Christendom. I do sincerely hope this clarifies the whole matter for you and the other participants of your faith. I really wish no ill toward you or anyone else. I'm afraid that's just the way things are done here at the Forum. I also pray God will bless you as you study Him AND His Son in His Word. Maintain an open mind AND an open heart to His Will. Pray often about this subject. --Rowdy |

150 | What does Sold out mean to each one? | Bible general Archive 2 | Rowdy | 121660 | ||
I don't think the phrase "sold out" is anywhere in the Bible as I just tried searching for it but the modern concept certainly is in the Bible, four times that I can recall. 1) Esau sold out his birthright for a pot of beans to his brother in Gen 25. 2) Jacob's 10 (w/o Reuben's blessing) sons sold out their brother, Joseph to the Midianite traders to get rid of him, in Gen 37. 3) Judas sold out his Lord and Master, Jesus to the Jewish Priests for 30 pieces of silver, Matt 27. 4) Ananias and Sapphira sold out their souls to Satan for a certain sum of money and to share in the fame of Barnabas, Acts 5. So these verses cite stories of folks who sold out something. What does the phrase really mean to them? It seems clear that they took something that really was a gift from God but they were stewards of the gift (like you and I are of today's world) and sold it for a very cheap price. Every time the seller ends up regretting making such a deal and they find out the true value and still get stuck paying the ultimate price for "the wages of sin is death." One can only hope to be given the opportunity to repent like Esau and Joseph's brothers were given. The big question for most of us: will we actually repent before or after Judgment Day. We're ALL assured that everyone's knee (including Satan's) will bow at the Lord on Judgment Day. What does this phrase mean to you? God bless. --Rowdy |

151 | Thanks, and here's another question. | Bible general Archive 2 | Rowdy | 121661 | ||
In addition to the good advice, you've received, I thought I throw in something from a father of a young boy literally addicted to this problem. Maybe just a little history. My older son started at the sweet age of 16 at the habit of calling 900 and 800 numbers and listening to the sweet whispered nothings from girls so as to satisfy his lusts and ran up a bill of literally thousands of dollars in phone bills. I called the phone company after receiving these bills and assured them no one in my family was capable of doing such a thing; this was done before I found out it was my son. A few months later, after he turned 17, he started doing it again and we had words. I offered to take him to the gym and put the boxing gloves to work because I was just about ready to kill him. His mother, my wife was the only thing that saved that boy from some serious pain as far as I was concerned. You see when he was 16, I went to bat for him and finally got that huge phone bill resolved in our favor, but he promised me that he wouldn't do that again. So as you can imagine, he's been in therapy every since. Once a week, he goes to a group session and they talk about their weakness and ways of dealing with their addiction. That's right, I called it correctly an addiction. Hopefully, you should be able to find such a group in your community. If not, we'll pray for you. By the way, my son is now married, has been for more than two years. He and his wife have problems now and again but they work through them with God's help and maybe just a little assistance from me and his mother. We're trying our best to stay of their way and let them grow up on their own like my parents did. It's tough but it can be done. Well, I really hope this helps you because it's quite humbling to me. God bless. --Rowdy PS: I almost forgot to mention. The fault doesn't all fall to my son. I too had my problem with pornograph magazines and thus I infected my own son with this problem. The only reason I share this with you is so you WON'T go through the same grief with your children. |

I'm not quite sure what you're asking here. I can quote to you that the whole world started all over again with the advent of the flood. So we're all an offspring of one of the sons of Noah. His sons' names were Ham, Shem and Japheth. Do you have some particular point with your question? It would be helpful if you could give us a little more information or background. And since this is a Bible Forum, what scripture(s) do you have in mind? God bless. --Rowdy |

154 | The rest of us? | Bible general Archive 2 | Rowdy | 122767 | ||
I always start with the easy. In your list of questions, the easiest is that of Noah as a Jew?!? I take it you're kinda new at studying your Bible. The Jewish nation didn't really get started until after the "rescue" from bondage of Egypt by Moses. Then this large (est million or more) group of Israelites proceeded after the wondering in the desert to Canaan, the promised land and conquered it. But this was about 450 years after it was promised to them through the life and promises of God to Abraham. Abraham was born several generations after Noah. Noah lived in what the scholars call the Patriarchial age, that is before God gave any specific law, at least in writing. He did this with the issuance of the Ten Commandments to Moses and then Moses came up with all the other commands from God in the organization of the rest of the Law of Moses. And like you've mentioned the OT is filled to overflowing with a tremendous amount of disobedience and some small occasions of obedience, just like mankind since that time. We took the perfect church of our Lord with the divinely guided Apostles and the simple but firm leadership and we as a planet went through the apostacy and were led astray by Satan. The church even went so far off track as to make a mere human being the Pope of the Catholic faith, and allowed him to declare himself equal to God. To make a very long story short, we went through the Reformation wherein Luther and others were hoping to have the Catholic leadership correct itself and reform. But alas it never has happened. Then we went through the Restoration period in which a great number of men pleaded with their fellow men on both sides of the Atlantic for a true return to the basic guiding principles found in God's Word, most especially the NT. So you see it's basically NOT in man's nature as a whole planet to stick for very long to God's Word or to His Will as we're told in Prov 14:1 The wise woman builds her house, But the foolish pulls it down with her hands. 2He who walks in his uprightness fears the LORD, But he who is perverse in his ways despises Him. 3In the mouth of a fool is a rod of pride, But the lips of the wise will preserve them. 4Where no oxen are, the trough is clean; But much increase comes by the strength of an ox. 5A faithful witness does not lie, But a false witness will utter lies. 6A scoffer seeks wisdom and does not find it, But knowledge is easy to him who understands. 7Go from the presence of a foolish man, When you do not perceive in him the lips of knowledge. 8The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way, But the folly of fools is deceit. 9Fools mock at sin, But among the upright there is favor. 10The heart knows its own bitterness, And a stranger does not share its joy. 11The house of the wicked will be overthrown, But the tent of the upright will flourish. 12There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death. I've discussed this subject before. As I've mentioned, I'm very concerned about the continued divergence from God's Will we see prevelent in America. Just insert America and Roman Empire into the Search function at the right of your screen and you'll get many such posts on this subject. Can we turn this situation around? You bet we can but ONLY with God's help. So will we repent like Ninevah to Jonah's message or will we ignore the message as given to the Romans in that book from Paul, Chapter 1? Who could know but God Himself? As to your other questions: Read the story of Ruth as she was a gentile and not only became a Jew, she became a part of the very linage of Christ, the Son of God. "People from Nod?" You'll have to ask someone else. "All of us Jewish?" I can only quote from Gal 3:26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise. I hope this helps and God bless. --Rowdy |

The only time that we know for certain God created people was in the beginning with Adam and Eve. As far as we can tell, everyone else was born in the traditional manner, inlcuding all those who lived after the flood. So I guess within that context, the answer to your question is Yes, all people on earth came from the 3 sons of Noah. But in answer to your question about Jews and Gentiles, No, prejudice between these two groups didn't arise until after the establishment of Israel as a nation. Sometime between then and the coming of Christ, they had built up a tremendous amount of jealousy for their God and didn't want to share Him with the rest of the world. As a matter of fact, it looks as though the Jews were completely satisfied with keeping Christianity to themselves until the persecution forced them to flee. That and the advent of Paul as an Apostle seems to be the only reason Christianity spread to the rest of the world. God made this very plain in Acts 10, that He wanted the whole world to partake of the gift of salvation as provided in the Lord's Last Will and Testament. Two major events in this Chapter 10 support this view: the Holy Spirit's baptism of Corneilus and his household AND Peter's vision. You still haven't stated what exactly are you looking for ultimately with this discussion. Could you elaborate? God bless. --Rowdy |

I have to agree with EdB here. In further support of that conclusion, I would offer this scripture 2 Pet 3:7But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. 8But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. God bless. --Rowdy |

I would refer you to Halley's Bible Handbook. There he gives a much more thorough but brief summary of Church History. There he also goes into quite a bit of detail about the abuses of the Catholic organization during this timeframe, several centuries ago. If you're even half the Bible student you seem to be, I'm sure you already knew about this. But I hope this clarifies the issue for everyone and God bless. --Rowdy |

I meant no malice or prejudice of any kind toward any one individual, including the Pope. He can repent and follow the commands of Christ just like anyone else and become a christian. I was merely reflecting what's commonly known in all the history books but just in case... from: http://www.zpub.com/un/pope/infal.html The Doctrine of Papal Infallibility What is the doctrine of "Papal Infallibility" The First Vatican Council has defined as "a divinely revealed dogma" that "the Roman Pontiff, when he speaks ex cathedra -- that is, when in the exercise of his office as pastor and teacher of all Christians he defines, by virtue of his supreme Apostolic authority, a doctrine of faith or morals to be held by the whole Church -- is, by reason of the Divine assistance promised to him in blessed Peter, possessed of that infallibility with which the Divine Redeemer wished His Church to be endowed in defining doctrines of faith and morals; and consequently that such definitions of the Roman Pontiff are irreformable of their own nature (ex sese) and not by reason of the Church's consent" --Infallibility at the Catholic Encyclopedia (1913) Infallibility belongs in a special way to the pope as head of the bishops (Matt. 16:17-19; John 21:15-17). As Vatican II remarked, it is a charism the pope "enjoys in virtue of his office, when, as the supreme shepherd and teacher of all the faithful, who confirms his brethren in their faith (Luke 22:32), he proclaims by a definitive act some doctrine of faith or morals. Therefore his definitions, of themselves, and not from the consent of the Church, are justly held irreformable, for they are pronounced with the assistance of the Holy Spirit, an assistance promised to him in blessed Peter." --Papal Infallibility - at Catholic Answers Papal infallibility is one of the great differences between Catholicism and Protestantism. Very few seem to be aware of the awesome implications of this Catholic dogma. Hopefully, this brief summary will illuminate them. Regarding papal infallibility the present-day Roman Catholic Church says... --Papal Infallibility - by Dan Corner Papal Infallibility at the First Vatican Council in 1870 To the mind of the general reader, mention of the Vatican Council will usually recall two facts: that it was the occasion of the definition of the doctrine popularly called Papal Infallibility, and that many of the bishops present were opposed to the definition. The more erudite will add that their opposition was not to the doctrine itself, but to the policy of choosing this present moment to proclaim it--the definition, they would say, was held not "opportune." ... The leading critics of the "definition policy" were French, German, and Hungarian --CHAPTER 20 Following the first Vatican Council, 1870, a dissent, mostly among German, Austrian and Swiss Catholics, arose over the definition of Papal Infallibility. The dissenters, holding the General Councils of the Church infallible, were unwilling to accept the dogma of Papal Infallibility. Many of these Catholics formed independent communities which became known as the Old Catholic Church. At the First Vatican Council he was one of the most notable opponents of papal infallibility, and distinguished himself as a speaker. The pope praised Strossmayer's "remarkably good Latin." A speech in which he defended Protestantism made a great sensation. Afterwards another speech, delivered apparently on 2 June, 1870, was imputed to him. It is full of heresies and denies not only infallibility but also the primacy of the pope. The forger is said to have been a former Augustinian, a Mexican named Dr. José Agustín de Escudero. --Joseph Georg Strossmayer, the Catholic Encyclopedia, 1913 See also, the entry for Papal Infallibility at the Wikipedia encyclopedia project.

Of these two statements, your's and EdB's, I would have to say I think EdB is a closer to my position. The only idea I would want to add is a reminder from Paul Phil 2:12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; 13for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. 14Do all things without complaining and disputing, 15that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, 16holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have not run in vain or labored in vain. So we see, we can never afford to let up or retire from our lives as christians. We can never put the cross we are to bear for our Lord in a corner, thinking we've made it. We should thank our God for every breath we draw for to us, as christians "to live is Christ, to die is gain." I hope this helps and God bless. --Rowdy |

My first impulse is to respond to your questions as you do pose some interesting points but I'll restrain myself, hoping to see what some others think and say on this topic. For the moment, I'll reiterate what ALL of us know that with ALL things religious and pertaining to eternal life, we must turn to Christ ONLY and form a close relationship with him so that He can be our advocate to cover our sins on Judgment Day? On that we can agree, correct? God bless. --Rowdy |
