161 | defiling bodies by eating meat? | Bible general Archive 3 | InGodITrust | 187943 | ||
Angel72, As Moran61 said, "what scripture are you referring to? If you are talking in general then defiling ones body has more to do with sexual sins. They are many out there that would tell you "all kinds of stuff." And, of course, are we talking about a New Testament issue or an Old Testament issue as there would be a different frame of reference? Looking forward to your response. InGodITrust |

162 | Why do they kill Stephen but said unlawf | Acts | InGodITrust | 187942 | ||
Yowege, The trial of Jesus took place during a Sabbath, the stoning of Stephen was (most likely) not during a Sabbath. That may be only part of the scenerio but it's what comes to mind.This was in accord with Lev. 24:14. However, they were required to get the Romans approval (it's doubtful they did) and may have given him "a mock trial." God's speed. InGodITrust |

164 | Can you lose your salvation? | Eph 1:13 | InGodITrust | 187934 | ||
Lookin, As you can tell I am new to the forum. I have been following the long and arduous debate about eternal security. Perhaps Psalm 25 was not very clear about what he was stating. However, I do follow his argument that Ephesians 1:13 is in complete context with Ephesians 1:4 and that we must take the whole of chapter one in one stream of discourse. I agree that 1:13 "the sealing" being a one time action from eternity past. If I am correct the entire debate was eternal security? Therefore, what God chose before the foundations of the world was sealed then; the sealing took place before the foundation. Of course the effect of that sealing was after salvation. God, knowing who would believe (no matter how you debate whom and why) sealed all such future believers in eternity past. This does not mean we all literally existed in eternity past but that God,knowing who would become believers, sealed them in Christ through the Holy Spirit. As I have many years of studying I think you will find that all (or hopefully most) Biblical scholars agree that any time the Bible says "God seals" it is something that no one or absolutely nothing can "un-seal." With all that said I must agree that it is one of the strongest verses in the Bible on eternal security. Just my two cents worth! InGodITrust |

lookin, For confirmation, please look on the Catholic web page, via search engine. If you use a search engine just put any one of those guys names and it will bring up many listings as well as the Catholic page. They are listed (I don't recall if all their names are) by the Catholics as saints and former Catholic church leaders. However, you are correct as far as that goes, and yet many Christians were "not at all" a part of the system then known as "the church." In early church history there was only one universal church. But, it was the foundation as well as the original Roman Catholic church; one and the same. God Bless, InGodITrust Hope this helps........ |

167 | love wanderful | 2 Sam 1:26 | InGodITrust | 187930 | ||
Qhycrme1, Are you familiar with the relationship between David and Jonathan? Jonathan was King Saul's son and had stuck by David while his father King Saul was out to kill David. Jonathn risked his own life time after time by his loyal love for David. There was never anything remotely inappropriate about their relationship. This is in no way a down cast upon women. It was simply a statement that tried to explain David's tremendous respect and love for all that Jonathan had done. You see, normally, Jonathan would have been in line for the throne, but God had appointed David as the next King. Just think about what kind of man Jonathan must have been by being loyal to whom God appointed! Does this answer your question? In our Lord, InGodITrust |

168 | Abraham at 134 | Genesis | InGodITrust | 187922 | ||
chach, I guess, the obvious, if he could not father children through his first 99 plus years, then it was obviously a miracle of God that at 100 he could. The fact that he went on to father other children is not as relivant (I suppose). There are a multitude of things God chose not to include in Holy Writ. The story God wanted recorded is Abraham's faith and life. The answer to prayer in fathering Isaac, the lineage of Isaac and history of the Jewish nation. I agree it is also amazing that Abraham continued to father other children but the Biblical significance seemed unimportant to be included in Biblical history. Best answer I have at the moment.... InGodITrust |

169 | Abraham a father at 134 | Genesis | InGodITrust | 187920 | ||
chach, Isaac was heir to the promice, in that the Jewish nation would come through Abraham in his son Isaac. I would assume any other children he had would be in the same category as Ishmael. This would put them "outside of" God's chosen people the Jews. They would then be considered "gentiles" and would not be in the lineage of Israel, thus, outside of God's chosen people. So, the Bible would have no reason to continue their history or significance. Anyone else have a better explaination as this is all I can come up with? Seeking to serve Him, InGodITrust |

170 | Revalation 7:1-3 what is the seal? | Revelation | InGodITrust | 187916 | ||
wondergirly, I havn't been able to find anything that describes what the seal is. So, I will assume it is "a spiritual mark" that God Himself sets upon some one. I don't think it is similar to "the mark of the beast," as that may be a visable mark or something perhaps "implanted." Maybe someone else out there knows of a better answer. God Bless, InGodITrust |

171 | Can you lose your salvation? | Eph 1:13 | InGodITrust | 187888 | ||
Tim, Yes they do, those quotes make it clear they did. However, my understanding is those guys were on "the fringes." They were not (at all) in the majority and did not have an influence on "the main body of believers" in the conservative, fundamental arena. There's was not the excepted view of the conservative church fathers. And, as noted they followed many of the teachings of the Catholic Church and not those "outside of Rome." Something to look into. Historically the free will position has not been held by the vast majority of those in the traditional and conservative camps. Yes, the free will position has been around along time, but not by those whose over-all doctrines were held in esteem. By the way, my name is not Tim; I was addressing you. I will stick with InHimITrust for now. God Bless |

Tim, Greetings, I am new to the forum. I am having a hard time figuring out where all this started? However, I would like to make one comment about those you listed in history as men of God who supported free will. Tertullian, Clement of Alexandria, Athenagoras of Athens, Irenaeus, and Justin Martyr. Have you personally looked into what all these guys believed and taught? Not to mention they are (all) Catholic? Don't get me wrong Christian Catholics that are born again, I am not addressing. From the conservative history I have read about, those guys don't make the list. Just a thought............? God's speed Tim, InGodITrust |
