161 | Mary and Joseph | Luke 2:5 | srbaegon | 220466 | ||
Scripture does not say how long afterward that Joseph and Mary were married. Steve |

162 | Animals | Gen 9:4 | srbaegon | 220463 | ||
Because the Lord does not want people to consume blood. An explanation for this is not given until Leviticus 17:10-14. Steve |

Hello Aileen, The answer comes from the next verses. Jesus could not move freely because of the great crowds, so that he would need to get away by himself to pray. Steve |

Hello Happy... Read Luke 1 for the answer. Steve |

166 | Chgs - early Jeruselem Church structure? | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 220278 | ||
Hello Flying_V, The fact that you acknowledge yourself as a deacon demonstrates that structure. Also, 1 Timothy 3:1 reads "The saying is trustworthy: If anyone aspires to the office of overseer, he desires a noble task." Office infers structure. Understand none of this means that there is a hierarchy. Nowhere in Scripture will find that concept. Rather each believer fulfills his or her role in the local church as overseen by the elders. Steve P.S. I always preferred the Gibson Les Paul Classic, but that's me. |

167 | Aren't there differences? | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 220141 | ||
Hello lightedsteps, Had you read what had already been posted, you would know these verses have been addressed--lightly in this thread and heavily at previous times. Steve |

168 | letter F in footnote | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 220060 | ||
Hello ktb3, This forum does not address bound copies of the NASB specifically but is rather a place to go for answers concerning the biblical text regardless of the version you use. I believe your question relates to the use of "f" or "ff" to signify that the reference given is the beginning of a long section relating the verse at hand. I hope that helps. Steve |

170 | God and Critical thinking | Josh 1:8 | srbaegon | 219994 | ||
Hello MzS, I am going to respond not knowing your definitions for affirmations, self-talk, goal setting, and critical thinking. Also, I have interacted with BradK offline and know he will not steer you wrongly, so feel free to follow his advice. My first impression is that the first border on the metaphysical and occult. But like I said, I don't know what you mean by them. Critical thinking is nothing more than following statements and assertions to their logical end. This is good and forms the basis of good, sound apologetics (i.e. defending a position). There are a number of Christian apologists defending the faith. I am a fan of early church history and am curious why you asked specifically about Augustine. If you wish to know how the church fathers understood this area, perhaps you could give more input.

171 | Is there a reason to debate? | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 219991 | ||
dodoy, I have no example of fasting twice per week beyond the one I gave, but that does not mean it did not occur--only that it was not otherwise recorded. Your examples attesting to twice-daily fasting are nonsensical. The OT examples are simply giving a time period for the length of the fast, no more. The reference to Christ's fast just ensures that the reader understands it was 40 consecutive 24-hour periods in length, again nothing more. You are playing games with the text. As you have stated, "protei" can have various translations depending on context, but your translation attempt is invalid because the Greek text simply will not support it. "Sabbatou" is in the genitive and is modifying "protei," so besides "first of the sabbath" as I mentioned, it could also be literally translated as "on the sabbath's first [formemost, chief]." In order for your translation to be correct, "sabbatou" must be either in the dative case agreeing with "protei." Steve |

172 | Is there a reason to debate? | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 219973 | ||
Hello doday, Consider Luke 18:12 as an example of translating "sabbatou" as "week." Translating as you suggest would give "I fast twice a sabbath..." That does not make good sense. There are multiple issues at work here when insisting that "sabbatou" must be "sabbath:" 1) "protei sabbatou" is literally "first of the sabbath." What is the first of a sabbath? What does that mean? 2) Which sabbath is meant: sabbath of days; sabbath of weeks; sabbath of years? Steve |

Hello Hoggie, There is nothing to give a firm amount, but I was told by a Bible teacher that total for all to happen would be about one year. Steve |

Hello Ghostex, 1 Corinthians 14 primarily deals with who should speak as a church authority when the whole local body is gathered together. A woman's Bible study is not in view here. Steve |

175 | Correct Understanding of verses? | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 219340 | ||
Hello, Your quotation is accurate but taken out of context. As given here the quote appears to demonstrate that obey the law makes one righteous. That is not correct. Later, Paul writes: Romans 3:19-20 (ESV) Now we know that whatever the law says it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God. [20] For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin. Since obeying the law does not justify anyone, how can Paul say that obedience to the law will justify? Paul's point in chapter two (as you follow it through to chapter four) is to make plain the fact that he is comparing the Jews who hear the law and do nothing because they really do not believe it to Gentiles who have not heard the law but instinctively do part of it. He is trying to point out that the high-minded Jews are no better than the barbarians mentioned in chapter one. Then he summarizes in chapter three that ALL men are sinners and we cannot do ANY work to justify ourselves. Steve |

178 | how long confined? | 2 Cor 5:8 | srbaegon | 219033 | ||
Hello earlene. After answering the last question, I thought I should have continued. The soul is not confined in the grave. Note two passages: 1) In the account of the rich man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-21) both men were taken to comfort and torment immediately after death. 2) Paul's teaching (2 Cor 5:6-8) tells us his expectation was to be with the Lord at death.
