184 | Where is "The Heaven" ? | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 211662 | ||
It is imposable to say since we have no information as to "where" it is or weather it even has a "phisical" location. We do however know the phisical location of the first and second Heaven. | ||||||

Please sir, where O were is the third Heaven-?! |

Hi Happy It's pretty tough trying to go on what you gave. I'm not familiar with such a family from my limited knowledge of Scripture. Can you give us more to go on? Verse, chapter, book? |

Hi John, Welcome to the forum! John, it's not really about our plans. I'd say it's more about God's plan. And when we get in line with God's plan, 'then' we will be sucsesful. God bless John Mark 16:15 And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. |

189 | Tyndale gave us our English Bible | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 211948 | ||
--"William Tyndale gave us our English Bible. The sages assembled by King James to prepare the Authorized Version of 1611, so often praised for unlikely corporate inspiration, took over Tyndale’s work. Nine-tenths of the Authorized Version’s New Testament is Tyndale’s. The same is true of the first half of the Old Testament, which was as far as he was able to get before he was executed outside Brussels in 1536. Here is a sampling of the English phrases we owe to Tyndale: “Let there be light” (Genesis 1:3). “Am I my brother’s keeper?” (Genesis 4:9) “The Lord bless thee and keep thee. The Lord make his face to shine upon thee and be merciful unto thee. The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace” (Numbers 6:24-26). “In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God” (John 1:1). “There were shepherds abiding in the field” (Luke 2:8). “Blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted” (Matthew 5:4). “Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name” (Matthew 6:9). “The signs of the times” (Matthew 16:3) “The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak” (Matthew 26:41). “He went out . . . and wept bitterly” (Matthew 26:75). Those two words are still used by almost all modern translations (NIV, NASB, ESV, NKJV). It has not been improved on for five hundred years in spite of weak efforts like one recent translation: “cried hard.” Unlike that phrase, “the rhythm of his two words carries the experience.” “A law unto themselves” (Romans 2:14) “In him we live, move and have our being” (Acts 17:28). “Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels” (1 Corinthians 13:1) “Fight the good fight” (1 Timothy 6:12). According to Daniell, “The list of such near-proverbial phrases is endless.” Five hundred years after his great work “newspaper headlines still quote Tyndale, though unknowingly, and he has reached more people than even Shakespeare.” Luther’s translation of 1522 is often praised for “having given a language to the emerging German nation.” Daniell claims the same for Tyndale in English: In his Bible translations, Tyndale’s conscious use of everyday words, without inversions, in a neutral word-order, and his wonderful ear for rhythmic patterns, gave to English not only a Bible language, but a new prose. England was blessed as a nation in that the language of its principal book, as the Bible in English rapidly became, was the fountain from which flowed the lucidity, suppleness and expressive range of the greatest prose thereafter. His craftsmanship with the English language amounted to genius. He translated two-thirds of the Bible so well that his translations endured until today. This was not merely a literary phenomenon; it was a spiritual explosion. Tyndale’s Bible and writings were the kindling that set the Reformation on fire in England.'-- 2006 Bethlehem Conference for Pastors |

190 | Tyndale gave us our English Bible | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 211972 | ||
MJH, Yes sir, William Tindale was a giant of a man, and truly a humble servant of the Almighty God! Tindale gave more to God and His divine purposes in a year (never mind a year, better said: a week!) then most of us could ever hope to do in a lifetime. If you are interested you can read the whole thing at, http://www.desiringgod.org/ I'm not sure how it will appear to you but on my browser, (Resource Library) is found on the left near the top of the home page. Where you find it, click and then scroll to Biographies, Where you will find it titled as: Always Singing One Note—A Vernacular Bible --------------------------------------- Why William Tyndale Lived and Died you can read the text or listen to John Piper give his impassioned rendition as only John can do, and in such a uniquely wonderful way that never fails to inspire this poor saint's heart to a desire to action! There are many more short biographies there, brother John has quite a library, his website has enough to keep someone busy for quite a while. God bless John p.s. Thanks for bringing John Piper's website back to my attention, it lead me to notice a notice that I'd not heeded in my post ID# 211948 subject heading: Tyndale gave us our English Bible -- May I take this opportunity to give proper credit where it is due, and offer my apologies to the forum for my oversight. Post ID# 211948 was excerpted from a short biography: By John Piper. © Desiring God. Website: desiringGod.org |

191 | Prayer Request from My Family | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 212048 | ||
Please leave this up for a little while. My dear friend, Stanley, a diabetic for the last 37 years is really struggling with it now. Kidneys failing, 3 heart attacks this year, neuropathy, etc, but mostly it's a problem with his body absorbing (or not absorbing, I can't remember) his insulin from his pump 3 days each week. Everytime he changes sides for his pump every 3 days, if it goes to his left side, we pretty much know he's going to have problems because either his tissues are absorbing the insulin and the medicine is not able to do what it's supposed to do, or else it isn't absorbing like it's supposed to (I'm sorry, right now I can't think straight which way it is). But, anyway there you have it, for about 3 days each week he's pretty much going without much insulin at all (he's type 1 - dead pancreas). I sent him, about an hour ago by ambulance to the ER with blood sugars almost at 500. I'm waiting for the doctor to call me now. (Stanley doesn't like me to go there with him, so I stay by the phone.) Please pray that somehow the doctors can figure out about the absorbtion problem with his insulin. Thank you very much for keeping him in your prayers, he's a dear brother. Cheri p.s. Please do NOT remove this until it has had time for some prayer to go up for Stanley! |

Hello flyman: You wrote: "I want to follow my Lord the correct way and if it requires me to sell my possessions and give to the poor, then I must obey." Hey buddy, I'm poor, would you like me to give you my address? :-) Sorry for my little joke. But I really don't think He is saying all His followers are to sell all there possessions and give to the poor. What He is doing is letting this rich young man know, that he is far from keeping all His commandments, because this man is putting money before God, so he isn't even keeping the first commandment to, love the Lord thy God, and not to have any god's before Him, which this man is doing by putting his faith in his riches. Remember that the man was not asking how we are to follow Jesus or how to act after we are saved, but he was asking how to attain eternal life; there is a big difference. God bless John |

Flyman, you did not answer KcabmI4! That is not true! The thread can be easily followed, and you most certainly did not answer him! So stop blaming your misunderstanding's on a post deletion, that has nothing whatsoever to do with all the good advice you have been given, and chosen to ignore! It's time for you to get off your post-deletion hobby-horse and move on! John |

195 | Sell what you have-give alms | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 212296 | ||
Flyman, I am going to say this as kindly as I can at this point. Sir, it is time for you to stop and reflect on what has been said to you, and prayerfully consider it, all of it. And for you to stop this debate that you have firmly entrenched yourself. In easily understandable English, flyman, KNOCK IT OFF-!! John |

By the way flyman. Your post, that got deleted, that you claim is in response to, KcabmI4, was posted at 3:11pm, now that is interesting, because his post was posted at 4:23pm. WOW! That means you answered his post over an hour before he posted it! Dude! ARE YOU MAGIC! Seriously flyman, stop the pretending, grow up, and start telling the truth. Okay? John |

197 | Sell what you have-give alms | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 212307 | ||
Flyman, Sir, once again you are having a problem with the truth. I remember very well what the content of the later post was about, and it was nothing but a complaint about your other post(s) being deleted. Really, flyman, how long will you continue with this charade? Friend, this is a bible study forum not a debate forum. And frankly, friend, it's impossible to take you seriously when you say you have to follow Jesus to the literal letter of the law, but when you continue to promulgate lies, then it's really all for nothing isn't it?

Hi Cheri... If I may jump in here... I believe the point is, to bring our focus back to where it belongs. Christ! It's ALL about Christ! To even look for some sort of correlation between Israel and the US, or to even think Israel has very much to do with it is rather an obtuse view of what Scripture is all about. It's about Christ! John |

Try reading it now with Him in mind and just let Him speak to you. He is our all in all, and our thinking that we can somehow effect our own understanding by focusing on all the details is how we lose focus on Him. I think that was the point of the post. That's what He (Jesus) was trying to tell the Pharisees/Jews as Goldsworthy point's out. But they didn't get it either. John |

Dear Cheri... Oh Cheri! You, are a jewel, my dear friend. Yes indeed, sometimes Doc can be hard to understand. But the better I get to know him, the more I understand that, he most always strives to bring our focus in our studies to Christ. It's ALL about Him. :-) Hellooo! LOL God bless John |
