181 | God helps those who help themselves? | 2 Thess 3:10 | GeorJoy | 94042 | ||
Pro 13:4 The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat. I would say that the diligent tend to help themselves. The sluggard waits for someone to do for him. The quote you speak of is not in scripture, but the thought is. George |

183 | Down to the meat of scripture. | John 9:31 | GeorJoy | 94037 | ||
EdB your wisdom concerning Gamaliel’s advice is very enlightening. However, how would you explain John 9:31 “Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.” I agree that God must hear the prayer of the sinner when he repents. And I know that “(all things) work together for the good of them that love the Lord.” The repentant sinner has seen the error of his way and has come to repentance for the love of the Lord. I want to agree with you wholeheartedly, but I haven’t gotten past the mote in my eye where John 9:31 is concerned. I am familiar with Balaam’s story as well, and you bring out a very thought provoking point, what some would consider a contradiction, but what you and I know is fact, not contradiction, (whether we understand it or not.) Please help me with this, EdB. For it is a deep and meaty subject. Thanks George |

184 | John 9:31 is it a true spiritual fact. | John 9:31 | GeorJoy | 94035 | ||
If there is one word in the bible that is not true spiritual fact, then all scripture as we know it is corrupt. Howerver, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" 2Ti 3:16 There are, and have been many through the years, decades and centurys who have tried, and are trying to prove the Word has untruths. They have passed and will continue to pass away. Yet the word is still the same. Not one letter has changed; not one thought; not one truth... It will be the same when Jesus comes again, as it was when He first came. George |

185 | pray to God or Jesus or same?? | Rom 1:8 | GeorJoy | 94027 | ||
Thanks for the scripture DL5. I didn't have time to look it up and had to adlib. George |

186 | pray to God or Jesus or same?? | Rom 1:8 | GeorJoy | 94026 | ||
Although I am sure some do, I wouldn't call Christ a "seal" on our prayers to God. More like a pathway. I like the postage stamp thought though, for without that stamp, the prayer is useless, and not going to get to it's destination. But what about what Jesus said in Joh 10:30 "I and my Father are one?" George |

187 | pray to God or Jesus or same?? | Rom 1:8 | GeorJoy | 94021 | ||
I, at one time was confused by this question as well. May our Father bless you in understanding the following, for you will be easily confused by many. The Father, Son and Holy Spirit are One. No one comes to the Father but by the Son. If one dosen't believe in the Son, how could he believe in the Father, for they are one? If you believe in the Son, you can come before the Father in confidence, for through the Son, the believers are justified. Draw a triangle. On one side write "Father;" on the other side write "Son;" at the bottom write Holy Spirit. Draw a circle around the three and you have God... George |

188 | Where does the 6th day end? | Gen 2:1 | GeorJoy | 94016 | ||
If we were still in the 6th day, then it would have been said "and He will rest on the seventh day." I believe Ge 2:2 stated, "...and he rested on the seventh day..." How can anyone who can read; anyone who believes scripture is the word of God; feel the need to debate such a question? I am not very familiar with J's W doctrine. What little I have heard (from the poor, confused and demented souls who follow them,)of their profane and vain babblings, has sickened me enough, that I will not allow them to get their tenticles in deep enough to confuse me. coffee please, study the following. Then turn to the Living Water of the Word. Your mind will be clensed of all the muck therein. Once such trash has been clensed, you will see clearly... 2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2Ti 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. God Bless George |

189 | Did Adam and Eve go to heaven? | Gen 2:1 | GeorJoy | 94014 | ||
So, you are saying that transgression is not sin. Ok, I now know where you'r coming from. One question though. Is it because you, or he whom you follow was there in the garden that you consider yourself so inlightened? The only "non mortal" in the garden that was ever mentioned in scripture, other than The Living God Himself, was the serpent. Your words most assuredly are not from God. gbennett76, I don't know who you are following, but if they are not teaching and preaching from scripture, they are lieing to you. If you want to believe such lies as you have quoted, there is nothing I or anyone else can say to change your mind. If you want truth, I would strongly suggest you turn to a "BIBLE BELIEVING CHURGH" and start emercing yourself in the LIVING WATER provided by the Holy Scriptures before it is too late and you are given up to a reprobate mind. Reprobate per Mr. W 1 : to condemn strongly as unworthy, unacceptable, or evil 2 : to foreordain to damnation 3 : to refuse to accept : REJECT Your ignorance portrayed by your babblings thus far depicts only a light covering your of mind. It will only get heavier if you continue. If you are in the least concerned with the ultimate condition of your imMORTAL Soul, I would strongly suggest you consider adhearing to the following. 2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. (2Ti 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.) May the One and Only True God Have mercy on those who are sucked in by those who spout such profane and vain babblings as this note is in response to. George |

190 | Did Adam and Eve go to heaven? | Gen 2:1 | GeorJoy | 93816 | ||
Where does scripture state concerning Adam and Eve that “they were not yet mortal?” Or that “They were not able to have children?” Or that “Because of the Fall, we are blessed with physical bodies?” Where does scripture state that the sinful flesh is anything other than a curse, much less a blessing? How do you or anyone else know “what would have been ours had Adam and Eve remained in the garden?” I see a glimmer of a hint that you may be advocating “Grace,” in which case I would tentatively agree with your note, however your note implies more an agreement with the disobedient act of Adam and Eve. Your statement that “When Adam learned what had happened, he wisely chose to partake also therefore being able to obey the command to multiply,” nullifies any thought of wisdom on your part. I dare not imagine where you gleaned such demented views. Most assuredly, they did not originate in scripture. Please. Turn to The Word. George |

191 | A SHOVEl and a HOe | Gen 2:1 | GeorJoy | 93814 | ||
If you think about it, it is a valid question. There was no law at the time (other than Gods command.) "Where there is no law, there is no sin." If I were there durring that time, I would be concerned. However, considering the fact that I wasn't, I'll just place the thought in the back of my mind and go on to bigger and more important questions and answers. Questions like, how can I better serve Him in the here and now, while I have the opporitunity? George |

192 | blessing on marriage | Matthew | GeorJoy | 93812 | ||
I think I may have figgered it out now. Hank is simply Hank, DAIRYLEADER5 is simply aka DAIRYLEADER5, and as I thought, I had them confused the first time. Now I'm a little less confused, or am I? George |

193 | blessing on marriage | Matthew | GeorJoy | 93809 | ||
Wait just a cotton pickin minute!?! Read DAIRYLEADER5 posted Wed 08/20/03, 8:06pm. Is it, or ain't that you, or is the other Hank just yanking my chain? Confused for sure now George |

194 | blessing on marriage | Matthew | GeorJoy | 93808 | ||
Thanks Hank. It sure is nice to know that I'm not as goofy as I was begining to think. Anyway, I agree wholeheartedly with your statement that unbelievers are not under the law. Did I imply otherwise somewhere? God Bless George |

195 | Spiritual Maturity and Marriage | Matt 6:33 | GeorJoy | 93669 | ||
If they have researched their duties as husband and wife, and they sincerely desire to live and walk in the Spirit, all else will, without a doubt come naturally. They can only strengthen and uplift one another. 1Co 7:3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband. The more mature female will, if by example alone, strengthen and guide the male. If she sees where he is failing, and they are mature in Christ, they will be able to discuss such matters. They will also learn to agree to disagree in a Godly fashion. Mat 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. God bless George |

1)Are you and, or your new spouce a Christian? 2)Were you or your new spouce guilty of cheating on your previous spouces? 3)Did yours or your new spouces previous spouce cheat? 4)Are you or your new spouce a believer whos unbelieving previous spouce abandoned them? Your answer depends on your truthfull response to the above questions. I will not give you my interpritation of scripture. I will quote scripture concerning your answer to each of the above questions and let you answer your own question in a knowledgable manor. If you already have an answer in your heart. You may not want to hear my "bible quoted" response. If you want TRUTH, respond to this note. Otherwise, please do not respond. The truth will set us free. God Bless George |

Sorry DAIRYLEADER5. I guess that is a sign of senility. Or is it just that I'm getting drifty. George |

Well hey to you too Hank. Glad to hear your thoughts. I will not argue anything you have stated, only that you may not have understood why that Deacon was discharged. Then again, you may have. He may have been right and the Church leaders wrong. As you may have noticed, I don't always agree with interpritations of others, (churchs included) where the word is concerned, but I do know what the Word says concerning such subjects. If that Deacons wife had been married b4 and was not free according to the Word, would not the Deacon have been in an adultrous marriage, whether knowingly or unknowingly? If you desire to answer, please be sure to quote scriprture cuz I can remember quiet a few concerning my stand on this matter, and there is no matter of interpritation where they are concerned. "Dogmatic? I think not. Stuborn? Standing firm? I hope so!" It is neither mine nor anyone elses place to judge any other. It is ours to know the sin when we see it, AND, it IS YOURS, MINE AND EVERY CHRISTIANS responsibility to quote the Word without judgement of person, but with all truth and honesty!!!!! If in reading the QUOTED Word, one feels condemned, who would you say has condemned them? Most assuredly not the quoter! How about the one who originated the Word? Is the individual condemned? Most certainly not! Not unless they die in their sin. Will there be any liars in heaven? How about adulturers, whoremongers, thieves and homosexuals? Is there one of these sins that is worse than the others? God Bless George |

199 | "Who ONCE were disobedient" is about? | Matthew | GeorJoy | 93655 | ||
Aw... You are a bunch of wonderful codgers. Wait till you experience the "Great Grandchildren." When you hear your youngest son being called Grandpaw, or your darling daughter being called Grandma, you realize that your mind simply hasn't caught up with the age of the bod. What a blessing it is that we should live to see and share with them! George |

200 | What 'syour opinion on original question | Matthew | GeorJoy | 93654 | ||
Chusarcik, you seem to be very intent on getting an acceptiable answer to this question. Personally, I think it's a waste of time worrying about it. If it was a question concerning Salvation or how to please our Lord in our daily walk, or how better to serve our brother in deliverance of the Living Word, then it would worth it all. This post puts me in mind of someone sitting at the dinner table staring at a delicious 3 layer cake, not eating it, but continuously asking the question, why is it that chocolate is dark, rather than light in color? My Lord man! Get in there and eat. You may get your answer while you are eating, otherwise, someone else is liable to eat the thing while you're sitting there scratching your head... If understanding came before acceptance, there would be very little that man would ever accept. If you are already a believer, give it a rest. If it is important enough, the Spirit will eventually show you the answer. I have gotten answers after 30 years. I had totally forgotten the question till the answer arrived. Think of all you are missing where the Word is concerned while you are wasting time on this particular matter. Good luck and may God richly Bless you on your quest. George |
