1421 | What is 'the fruit of the vine'? | Matt 26:29 | Mommapbs | 34686 | ||
Dear Brother EdB, Why does God tell us that He will set a table of choice meats and aged wine before us in His Kingdom? Isaiah 25:6 Is this "refined, aged wine alcohol-free? I guess we'll see when we get to this feast He has prepared for us won't we? Why would Jesus have honored His mother's request at the wedding at Cana and bring forth the best wine to be served if He disapproved of it? Why would Paul encourage this to Timothy if it was harmful to him? Paul writes:"Stop drinking only water, and use a little wine because of your stomach and your frequent illnesses." 1 Tim 5:23 The inital question was with the reference to the observance of the Lord's Supper. How far afield we have come! Wine in the communion cup? If you have a problem with this, then don't take communion in churches that serve this element. Remember in excess, one can be drunk on water to the point of death too! I am not interested in arguing for or against the consumption of alcohol or judging a brother or sister for their views on the subject - I think either can become "legalistic!" "It is written: As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before me; every tongue will confess to God.So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother's way.As one who is in the Lord Jesus, I am fully convinced that no food is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean.If your brother is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother for whom Christ died.Do not allow what you consider good to be spoken of as evil.For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men. Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification. !!-pbs Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother to fall.So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the man who does not condemn himself by what he approves.But the man who has doubts is condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith; and everything that does not come from faith is sin. Romans 14:11-23 I hope we can move on from here and dialog about a more edifying topic! Mommapbs |

1422 | What is 'the fruit of the vine'? | Matt 26:29 | Mommapbs | 34677 | ||
Greetings Hank! This is an odd request. Since Raven wrote this post to you (2:50PM) and you adhere to a Baptist statement of faith,I am interested in your response! Raven writes: "And I also considered myself a good person with good morals who believed in God and in Jesus Christ as my savior. But I was not a Christian, and I knew it. But as of January 23, 2000 I obeyed they gospel and came in contact with the blood of Christ through baptism and became a Christian." How does one obey the Gospel and come in contact with the blood of Christ through baptism? Mommapbs |

Greetings Hank and EdB! Call me an old button pusher! Thanks for your response EdB - You KNOW I was "stirring things up!" Just as alcohol pushes your (justifiably so)hot buttons, legalism pushes mine. I don't believe in "cheap grace." There is a cost of discipleship. Being led by the Spirit is not the same as being led by the letter of the law. Jesus came to set us free from that, to choose to live a life with Him. And yes, as ourbodies are the temples He resides in, we have an awesome responsibility to "decorate" it a way that will be pleasing to Him. Obviously, God's Word is our guide and when we are determined to walk with Him, He will show us what is pleasing or acceptable to Him. I'm not going to condemn a Christian brother or sister because they choose to drink or not drink. Certainly I agree with you that ANY behavior or choice which diminishes the glory of Jesus in me is wrong (but I also include a legalistic attitude here for I experienced the results of this personally) Is the Holy Spirit incapable of showing me what is pleasing to Him? Does he need any help? I think you are pushing the envelope, albeit in jest or not, by suggesting that liberty in Christ is license. Respectfully in Him, Mommapbs |

1425 | What is 'the fruit of the vine'? | Matt 26:29 | Mommapbs | 34655 | ||
Greeting Tim! I tried to answer your question as you presented it however, after reading the following posts, it appears that the issue has become devisive. We are a diverse group with different "convictions" about what is "right." In the end, I want what God wants for me - so drinking is a personal choice based on a conviction of the Holy Spirit. Anytime we try to superimpose what God has given for us upon another, I believe we are entering into the area called "legalism." I have cut a post and altered it to express my views: Quite frankly, if we spent as much time letting Jesus reign in our lives rather than try to control our lives (or the lives of others) by following a bunch of rules, we wouldn’t have the time to engage in legalism. Why do we try to justify something that is so destructive in the lives of so many? Thousands die each year from causes directly related to legalism, thousands die each year from causes indirectly related to legalism. Thousands of innocence lives are destroyed each year by legalism, thousands of innocence lives are destroyed each year indirectly by legalism. Does any of this seem like a good thing? Something we should try to justify? Follow rules if you must but don’t try to justify legalism using the Bible. In the end, I guess we will all have to wait to see what kind of "aged wine" God serves at the Wedding Banquet of the Lamb! Blessings, Mommapbs |

1426 | Why was Saul hiding? | 1 Sam 10:22 | Mommapbs | 34402 | ||
Greetings Ken! You made a good point: it was a job Saul probably didn't want! However,I'm wondering if Saul hid because he recognized his own inadequacies. He had been chosen by God for an incredible assignment, and he was scared - was he up to the task at hand? Did he deserve this honor? Isn't this a pivotal question we all ask of ourselves? How we answer will determine our "reign" too - read on! When Samuel confronted Saul with his disobedience, (which seems to have characterized his reign) he makes this interesting remark:"Is it not true, though you were little in your own eyes, you were made the head of the tribes of Israel? And the LORD anointed you king over Israel. . . ."1 Samuel 15:17. From this(though you were little in your own eyes) I conclude that Saul indeed recognized his weaknesses but failed to depend upon the Lord's sufficiency. An obscure but very relevant example of this response is found in 1 Samuel 14:52: "Now the war against the Philistines was severe all the days of Saul; and when Saul saw any mighty man or any valiant man, he attached him to his staff." The climate in which Saul lived was devoid of peace. There was continued fighting; the enemy was always present. Instead of relying upon the Lord, Saul took matters into his own hands and "drafted into HIS army" any young man that appeared to be strong and brave. I wonder,what would the Lord's army look like? We are told that God's ways are not our ways, and that He choses the weak things of the world to reveal Himself. "but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong," 1 Cor 1:27 Seems like Saul was on the right path at first, he recognized his weaknessess! But unfortunately, he chose to walk down the road of self-sufficiency rather than God's way. Although Saul is not held in high regard, perhaps it would be wise not to overlook the things we can learn from him! Mommapbs |

1427 | Trees of the Bible | Is 6:13 | Mommapbs | 34159 | ||
“And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the Tree of Life also in the midst of the garden, and the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil." Gen. 2:9 Greetings Makarios! Let's add these two trees to your list! From Creation, the Fall of Man, his redemption on Calvary, to the Tree of Life that spans the River of Life in Eternity, trees have a significant place in Scripture! Trees are special to God, for even believers are compared to them: (We) “. . .will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor. . .” Isaiah 61:1-4. "Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought." Jeremiah 17:7-8. Wood from the Cypress tree was used to build Noah’s Ark. (Genesis 6:14): this particular wood was durable and resistant to decay. It was the first tree used to save man from God’s judgment. Acacia wood is mentioned in the construction of another Ark – The Ark of the Covenant. (Deuteronomy 10:3) It has an impermeable nature and is known for its strength. Acacia can be so luminescent that it looks as if it was impregnated with gold. Although the Ark was just a wooden box, its worth was immeasurable for it contained the law of God. This reminds us of another wooden box, not overlaid with gold but one that contained the very Treasure of God – the humble manger held Jesus, the fulfillment of the Law! Cedars of Lebanon were mentioned many times throughout the Bible. They were prized for building – the work of man’s hands. The cedar tree symbolizes "pride" in Jewish tradition. God’s Word reminds us that pride is the source of sin; it is the antithesis of the humility that God desires. In Leviticus 14, the lowly hyssop plant is used to purify and cleanse. Obviously, hyssop had a special significance to David. Recall the words of King David, after confessing his sin, he petitions: “Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.” Psalm 51:7 Although not a tree, this humble plant provides us with a glimpse of the coming Christ. Unlike costly cedars, it is readily available. It is a common shrub that grows all over the Holy Land. It can even be found growing out of rocks and cracks in walls. Hyssop was often crushed and used in preparations for healing. The first mention of the hyssop plant is found in Exodus 12:22. The hyssop plant was dipped in the blood of the lamb to paint the doorposts of the Israelites to save them from the Angel of Death when he “passed over” the land of Egypt. King David knew that he needed forgiveness and healing that hyssop represents. Forgiveness and healing are also found in Jesus. "Later, knowing that all was now completed, and so that the Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, "I am thirsty." A jar of wine vinegar was there, so they soaked a sponge in it, put the sponge on a stalk of the hyssop plant, and lifted it to Jesus' lips. When he had received the drink, Jesus said, "It is finished." With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit." John 19:28-30. Man’s salvation from his sentence of death also involves a tree. Although it is a dead one, the tree represented by the Cross - and the Death of Christ Jesus upon it, provides the way for our redemption. It is also symbolic of the “death to self” that God demands of us. “And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, ‘Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.’” Mark 8:34 Lastly, in contrast to the dead wood of the cross, we can anticipate partaking of the Tree of Life when God has restored Creation in His eternal Kingdom! (See Rev.22: 1-2) “Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.” Revelation 22:14 |

1428 | How to convey God's love and approval? | John 1:1 | Mommapbs | 33833 | ||
All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16-17. Greetings Clay! Thank you for your encouraging words. That last line was a "zinger!" How true that we don't correctly apply God's Word when the situation calls for us to stand firm. All too often, I think that believers are inseucure in their knowledge of Scripture and so they remain silent to conceal their ignorance. But this is no excuse. God promises that His Word will not return unto Him void, or without result. Even when we think we don't know the Truth, if indeed the Truth dwells in us, we have the confidence that the Holy Spirit will remind us what to say, when and how to say it. If we trust in our own wisdom, we become as fools. All counsel must be sought of God first. Sometimes, He uses other Godly individuals who have been gifted with wisdom - we must be discerning though and seek God's affirmation in conjunction with this counsel. A heavy responsibility isn't it? One of the things that concerns me is all too often, we know what the Scriptures say, but we lack the knowledge of HOW to apply it. The "practical" side of the Christian walk becomes obscurred in our theological debates. And although this may stimulate our minds and thinking, it doesn't really serve much of an edifying purpose in my day-to-day realtionships. I am not a Bible scholar either, and often I feel a bit intimidated on this forum as I follow the postings of others, but God has me "on line" for His purpose-one of which is to be strengthened through these dialogs! Your suggestions of praying with and teaching my children are convicting. I have only two left at home and the teenager is at a point where God is far away, not really relevant. As God opens the door, I make an effort to direct them to Him. Certainly the future is of great concern to everyone, including kids, so this is one area where I can assert the sovereignty of God in all things! As a parent, setting the Godly example (or lack thereof) in our homes has the greatest influence on their adult lives. I praise God that my older adult children are turning to Him - so although I become anxious about the younger ones at times, God is faithful, He will complete the good work He began in them from the moment of their conception too! Hope you have a God-blessed day! Momma |

1429 | In, on, and around... | Gen 1:1 | Mommapbs | 33654 | ||
Greetings Holy_Teen! The focal point of this verse is not what was created but rather WHO. Everything pales and is incidental by comparison when we consider the existence of Almighty God - who always was, and is and always will be! Grasping God's sovereignty over all things is so important. This enables you to submit to His authority in your life and frees you from worry. You have many life choices to make in the days and years ahead; I pray that you will seek God's will in all things. Please take a moment to read Tim Moran's excellent note "Be Holy," based on 1 Peter 1:15. I hope you will continue to dialog on this Forum, however, remember that we "old folks" struggle with the teen-type you are using! Blessings in Jesus on your life! Mommapbs |

1430 | Burnt offering, Sin offering-symbolize? | Ps 20:3 | Mommapbs | 33491 | ||
Greetings Mrs. Shetty! I thought that this piece was connected to your post on sacrifice and trust that God will bless you through it! Mommapbs The Fragrance of Death Early in our marriage we lived in a house without air-conditioning. Thankfully, our climate is temperate and cross-ventilation is sufficient to cool us off except for about ten days of the year. When the temperature first began to climb, I opened the front window. However, a noxious odor wafted in with the breeze. A neighborhood cat must have left an unfinished “meal” nearby and as the day got warmer, it had begun to rot - and stink! We got a room air- conditioner that summer. Years later, while working in my backyard, I caught of whiff of that now familiar smell. It was obvious that something BIG had died close by! For days we could not enjoy our deck; and thankfully, our home was now all air-conditioned! Not wanting to be held hostage inside the house, I sent my resident “weekend warriors” on a search and destroy mission with a bag of lime. About a half hour later, my “men” came back to report that they had successfully eliminated the source of our distress – a fallen doe. In reading the book of Leviticus, we learn about all the sacrifices that the Israelites were required to make. There sure were a lot of dead animals! Although I understood the necessity of blood (“for without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness” Hebrews 9:22), I did not understand how these offerings could be “a pleasing aroma unto the Lord.” Lev 4:31 I’ve smelled burning flesh and it is anything but sweet! I’ve also smelled death. To me, the stench of death is repulsive; yet what I was reading in Leviticus prompted me to ask, “Why is death an attractive fragrance to God?” I found the answer in a devotional by Tommy Tenney called "The Daily Chase." For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. To the one we are the smell of death; to the other, the fragrance of life. And who is equal to such a task? II Corinthians 2:15-16 I asked, “What was the “aroma of Christ?” God, through Tenney, answered: “It was His death!” To God, the smell of death is pleasing; I finally understood why God required so much blood! The penalty for sin is death and the Life is in the blood. “For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood by reason of the life that makes atonement.” Lev. 17:11 Something had to die, for without the shedding of blood (death) there is no forgiveness. Without forgiveness, there is no way for God to come close to US! God wanted His people to be able to draw near unto Him. Yet He is Holy and our sin prevents the intimacy that God longs for; so He provided a Way - from the first sin covered by the bloodied skins of animals to the last covered by the perfect blood of Christ - we come to God only through the blood. Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6 Those who been bathed in the shed blood of Christ are a pleasing aroma in God’s nostrils. Yet, to “those who are perishing,” we, who wear the “perfume” of the Christ, are odious. Non-believers will make every effort to close the windows of their souls or run for the bag of lime to remove the repulsive insult of Jesus to their senses . . . John the Baptist was the first to understand the sacrifice of self that God calls us to make when he said, “He must increase but I must decrease.” (John 3:30) And the Apostle Paul instructs believers to “present our bodies as living sacrifices . . .” (Romans 12:2) We do this by denying our “self will” in exchange for His “good will!” Jesus tells us, “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.” Luke 9:23 By doing so, we can live the “abundant life” that God so longs for us to have with Him daily. When we are “dead” to self, Christ is able to live His life with and through us to accomplish His purposes. God loves the smell of death . . . Jesus said, “For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it.” Matthew 16:25 What fragrance are you wearing? How you “smell” to God is the only thing that matters! Are you bathed in the sweet aroma of Christ? Have you become a “living sacrifice” or are you still crawling off the altar? Are you dead yet? Deny yourself, die to self and live! |

1431 | Words of encouragement and instruction | 1 Sam 12:20 | Mommapbs | 33431 | ||
What encouragement does God give you from this verse? Because Israel was afraid, they demanded Samuel to give them a king to fight for them. They thought that they stood a better chance against their enemies if they were more like them. (Did they really have a "better idea?") How quickly they forgot about the Lord's deliverance, provision and sufficiency! Yet, when I came across this verse, I was reminded about times when I have sought to be my own "king." As I respond to circumstances by choosing the "world's way," I reject the Lord's leadership of my life too! How quickly I can forget all that He has done, all that He is, and all that He promises! But God reassures me to "fear not:" failure is not fatal or final. God's amazing Grace frees my heart from fear and encourages me to depend upon Him for . . . whatever I need at this very moment - especially forgiveness! As I choose to follow Him, my "walk" will reflect His companionship - and no matter how "out of step" or lonely I may feel, I am not alone! |

1435 | what does 1 Corinthians 14:34-40 mean? | Bible general Archive 1 | Mommapbs | 30844 | ||
Greetings Grace! Reading in commentaries on this subject may be helpful in understanding the historical significance of this issue. However, having been mentored by a wonderful woman of God, I don't believe that this particular reference is to be taken literally. My dear sister in the Lord explained it this way: women are subject to the authority of men and if a man is willing to assume responsibility (accountability?)for the woman, she may hold a position of leadership in the church. Under his authority she is able to teach, etc. For example, my father is the teacher of our Sunday school class. He as given me a portion of teaching to present. I feel comfortable in doing so because I am under his authority. I would not feel at liberty to teach a class of men however! I think that in this as in other matters of propriety in worship, we should seek the counsel of God to reveal to us what is pleasing to Him. So please bear in mind that this is a personal issue. Ask God, He will answer you! Blessings to you, Mommapbs |

1436 | To taste is to know! | Ps 34:8 | Mommapbs | 30811 | ||
The "Rule" of the Recipe: to taste is to know! We can make a cake by following the directions, but unless we have tasted the cake first, and know what it is supposed to taste like, we can’t be sure that what we have made is really THE cake. This is how many people treat their faith. They follow a bunch of “rules” without ever really knowing the Ruler! Just knowing about Jesus is like baking a cake you have never tasted. God says, “Oh taste and see that the Lord is good.” (Psalm 34:8) Jesus is God's invitation for us to know Him personally. Here, God wants us to have His cake and eat it too! Jesus is the only standard by which we will be able to discern good from evil, right from wrong and truth from lies. Once you have tasted the "Bread of Heaven," nothing else will satisfy! (John 6:33,35,48,51) |

1437 | Discuss "a form of godliness?" | Acts 2:17 | Mommapbs | 30574 | ||
Greetings Hank! I agree, these practices are still needing to be recognized and "condemned," however, I feel the need to become aware of other ways "a form of godliness" can creep into the church. I don't think our adversay will be as obvious as a wolf when he attempts to raid the flock! Recently, I was involved in a presentation of the "misapplication" or incomplete application of Scripture. It was very enlightening. How easily we can be tricked into believing we are being "godly" when in fact, we are far from it! This Forum is an excellent way for believers to interface with one another and challenge ourselves in light of God's Word. I was brought up believing certain theologies and those long held beliefs limited my ability to accept what God was trying to teach me about Himself. The process is continuing and my faith grows as I exercise it in obedience to Him. But I often wonder if it would have taken so long for God to get my attention if I wasn't so committed to MY theology instead of to MY God, Jesus! I realize that the examples I initailly suggested were perhaps stretching the envelope for some on this Forum. Please accept my apologies for any distress. I hope that participants will continue to examine their own lives for "forms of godliness" and deal with them appropriately! In Christ's love, Momma |

1439 | What is this "open door?" | Rev 4:1 | Mommapbs | 30376 | ||
Greetings Nolan, Emmaus and Ray! Thank you for your insight. I am still chewing on this. After looking up some additional references (Matthew 24: 33-4; Matthew 25:10; John 10:9) I am getting a different view of this "Door!" I am reminded of the door on the Ark - God shut that one, will this door be shut too? How long will it be open? Thinking about the reference in Rev 3:20 to the door of our heart (which is closed until we choose to open it) and contrasting it to the heart of God which is OPEN, (God is patient , not wanting anyone to perish 2Peter3:9) is also thought provoking. (Further shows that we are createdin His likeness - each of us have a "door" of desire or a "will.") Yes, I know I'm stretching WAY out there! But this is how God seems to lead me along - with "object lessons"! Not being a Greek scholar limits my exploration, but having the Spirit of Christ I believe it is necessary for me to continue to seek until the truths the Lord wants me to know are revealed! (And I pursue His Truth with the full knowlege that this may not be until I get to Heaven, then of course it won't matter!)Blessings to you! Mommapbs |
