Does the fact that Peter has a sword in John 18:10 show that the disciples used and advocated the use of a 'sidearm' weapon? Was the wearing or keeping of a sword used for self-defense?

Should we be 'door mats' to people? | ||||||
187 | Is Hollywood biblically accurate? | Bible general Archive 1 | Makarios | 7230 | ||
Is Hollywood generally faithful to the Bible in film depictions involving events in Scripture? There are many depictions in film of the life of Christ and many other Biblical characters throughout the history of filmmaking. However, in my opinion, Hollywood has done a very poor job at taking the events of the Bible and putting them onscreen. For examples of 'epics' that are very questionable and even 'blasphemous' (in my opinion) are: "Jesus" (2000), "Mary" (1989), "Godspell" (1973), and "Jesus Christ Superstar". A few of the more 'respected' depictions of Jesus in Hollywood are: "Jesus" (1979), "The King of Kings" (1927), "The Greatest Story Ever Told", "Jesus of Nazareth" (1977), and "The Miracle Maker" (2000). Tell me, is it impossible to make a motion picture of Christ that is Biblically accurate? | ||||||

191 | Did Jesus change His mind? | John 7:8 | Makarios | 7145 | ||
In John 7:8, Jesus says that "I do not go up to this feast because My time has not yet fully come".. However, in verse 10 and 14, we read that not only did He go up (v. 10- in 'secret'), but He also began to teach (v. 14). Did He change his mind? Did He just want to go up alone? What do you make of John 7:8 in light of verses 10 and 14? | ||||||
192 | Is 'match making' Biblical? | Bible general Archive 1 | Makarios | 7136 | ||
Is playing 'matchmaker' Biblical? About a year ago, a friend of mine 'set me up' to meet a Christian girl who is about my age (middle 20s) at a restaurant. We had a great time eating dinner together and found out that we have many things in common. However, we remained acquaintances and still remain so today, even calling each other friends in Christian love. We still keep in touch through e-mail and send each other Bible verses.. :) However, I am convinced that our Lord has different paths for our lives in His service. Please tell me, was it right for my friend to 'set us up' like that, or was it Biblical? Is any matchmaking Biblical? Thanks in advance! | ||||||

198 | Prophecy of city of Tyre fulfilled? | Ps 87:4 | Makarios | 6893 | ||
Considering the history of the city of Tyre (Ezek. 27-29), would Psalm 87:4 be a prophecy that was fulfilled when a Christian church was built on the site of the Melkharth temple? Some of Tyre's citizens came to hear the preaching of Jesus (Mark 3:8), and Christ visited the neighborhood (Mark 7:24-31) getting a favorable reception (Luke 10:13). Tyre was visited by Paul (Acts 12:20, 21:3-7). So would the church in Tyre be a fullfillment of Psalm 87:4 even though Tyre is prophecied against in Isaiah 23:1-18? | ||||||
199 | Ray, do you believe that Jesus was God?? | Is 9:6 | Makarios | 6892 | ||
Ray, what I'm trying to say to you is this: If you believe that Jesus Christ was the fullness of the Diety in bodily form and also human in every way, but without sin, then capitalization isn't much of an issue. Do you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He is God Himself? Do you believe that Jesus is a distinct Person in the Three Person Godhead? | ||||||
200 | Critical Text vs. Received Text | Bible general Archive 1 | Makarios | 6758 | ||
I have recently seen a tract that explains that the Received Text, or Majority Text/Textus Receptus, is superior to the Critical Text, or an 'eclectic' Greek text. Is there any truth to the claim that one set of Greek texts, the Byzantine (Majority/TR) or the Alexandrian (Critical), is better than another and therefore, more reliable? | ||||||
