161 | Paul's physical description | Matt 11:28 | ebrain | 165245 | ||
No it would not be incorrect. The question asked, and the answer given were academic only, and in no way could the information sent be considered as detrimental to a persons standing before God. Please explain what was your reason for asking this question?. |

162 | was Jesus "the Word"? | John 1:1 | ebrain | 165210 | ||
Jesus is indeed the Word, or perhaps better, the Word of God, that is to say, God's verbal declaration of Himself to man, as opposed to His written revelation of Himself, the Bible. You will find it helpful in this context to read John 1:18. 5:19, and 30. 7:16-17. 14:9-10. and Acts 2:22. Jesus is the vehicle through whom His Father was made visible, and spoke. What you must understand of course is that here we are considering Jesus's true humanity, and not His Deity. I hope this makes sense to you, if not, then just ask. Reconciling the Deity, and humanity of the second person of the Godhead, is one of the major problems that Bible students encounter. |

163 | Luke 2:33 | Matt 1:19 | ebrain | 165200 | ||
Joseph's action described here at Matthew Ch 1 vs 18-19, indicate that he was not responsable for Mary being with child. Read also the NASB text at Luke 3:23, and you will see "as was supposed". |
||||||
164 | What is the difference ? | Acts 2:17 | ebrain | 165144 | ||
Verse 18, is mearly a continuation of v 17, and goes on to the end of v 21. In fact all that Peter is doing is to quote from Joel 2:28-32. To get this into perspective read Acts Ch 2 v 22-41. I hope that this is of help to you. In Him. Edwin Brain. |

165 | Is "come as you are" in the bible? | Matt 11:28 | ebrain | 165098 | ||
Have a look at Matt 19:14, "come as a little child", innocent, trusting, open hearted, without preconcived ideas. I think this is probably what you had in mind. Welcome to this Forum, and may the Lord bless you. Edwin Brain. |

166 | leader vs king of Tyre | Ezek 28:12 | ebrain | 164903 | ||
King of Tyre refers to Satan, whereas Leader, or Prince of Tyre as it is translated in other versions, refers to a man who might indeed have been from a human point of view King of Tyre, but as Satan is far far more powerfull than a mere human King, this man is for the purpose of this passage of Scripture reduced to a mere Prince as a comparison has to be made between him, and Satan. Therefore to sum up, verses 1-10, refers to a man, whereas verses 11-19, refers to Satan. |

167 | explain the doctrine of predistination | Rom 9:13 | ebrain | 164900 | ||
Romans 8:29, tells you that Devine Predestination is acording to God's foreknowledge, but He does not reveal just what it is that He foreknows. No one can respond positivly to the Gospel message, without first being "regenerated" by the Lord, but why it is this one, and not that one, I don't know, and what's more neither does anyone else. One thing you can be sure of is that the judge of all the earth will do right, in fact He is incapable of doing anything other than what is right, and just. |

168 | what does the bible say about suicide | Deut 5:17 | ebrain | 164899 | ||
"You shall not murder", which I understand to mean you are not to terminate human life, and that includes your own life. |
||||||
169 | Matt 25:12 not know them?why | Luke 13:23 | ebrain | 164813 | ||
Have a look at Matthew 7:23. where Jesus says "I never knew you", whereas at 25:12 it is "I do not know you". In both cases He is saying, you do not believe in me, you are not saved. It is just His way of saying, I never entered your body in the person of my other self, the Holy Spirit. He is employing the Biblical use of the word "Know" as demonstrated at Gen 4:1, where it is written "Adam knew Eve his wife, and she concived", which refers to the entry by one person into the body of another person. I hope this is of help. Sorry about the duplication, just correcting a spelling mistake. Every blessing. ebrain. |

171 | Do evil spirits posses people today? | Acts 19:15 | ebrain | 164625 | ||
Yes they do, but why are you asking this question? The Word of God forbids anyone from dealing with evil spirits, and it would not do this, if it were not possible for people to contact them. |

172 | Confession and forgiveness. | Ex 20:10 | ebrain | 164619 | ||
Hi Lionheart. Thank you for your kind words. Confession is only possible as a result of repentance, therefore there is no need for it to be refered to. Read about the 3 persons who were saved as recorded in Acts Ch 8 from v 26, to Ch 10 v 48, and count how many times the word "repent" or "repentance" is used, you might just be supprised. The Lord bless you. Edwin. |
||||||
173 | Greater Love | 1 John 4:7 | ebrain | 164586 | ||
Read Romans 5:5. The Love that is "poured out" is in fact the love of God via the Holy Spirit, but this will only happen if you allow The Lord to have complete, and total control of you, and all that you are. How to do this is shown by Jesus, see John 5:19 and 30, also John 14:10. "Not my will, but thine be done". Happy Christmas Mark to you, and all your family. God bless. Edwin. |

175 | Paul had problems? No one acts good? | Matt 11:28 | ebrain | 164534 | ||
If you read the Scripture passage indicated, you will know exactly what I mean. 1. "The good that I want to do, I don't do, the evil that I don't want to do that is what I find myself doing". This is Pauls problem, it is also your problem, and mine. 2. When our Lord said "you can do nothing" He ment exactly what He said, that you are not able to do anything. From a human point of view we are certainly able to do "good" (morally virtuous acts) but not however from the Divine point of view. Please refer to Mark Ch 10 vs 17-18, also Romans Ch 3 vs 10-12, Paul here is quoting Psalm 14 vs 1-3, and Psalm 53 v 1-3. |

176 | Can a slave desire to be free? | 2 Pet 2:19 | ebrain | 164417 | ||
That depends on who you are a slave of, if of the devil, then yes, but if you are a slave of Jesus the Christ, then no. | ||||||
177 | Is this invitation open to everyone? | Matt 11:28 | ebrain | 164416 | ||
It is addressed to all christians, who are finding living the christian life very hard indeed. Paul himself had problems see Romans Ch 7 v 14 to Ch 8 v 8. As Jesus said "Without me you can do nothing" John 15:5. |
||||||
178 | what are the ten commandments | Ex 20:3 | ebrain | 164415 | ||

179 | The difference between Allah and God | Matt 5:44 | ebrain | 164342 | ||
We are told to "love our enemies". Ask to be shown a similar verse in their book. Only if our Lord is doing a work in their hearts is there any possibility of your being able to help them. Read Eph 6:12,and 1st Cor 2:14, you carn't, He can, read also Luke 24:45, if He does not open their minds, there is nothing that you can do about it. I am sorry if I sound negative, but these are the facts, we are involved in the supernatural, to find out it is done, read John 15:5,and John 5:30, learn how He did it, and you will find out how you can do it. |
