202 | if you are saved are you always saved? | Bible general Archive 3 | ebrain | 162875 | ||
Jesus said(John 6:39)that his Father's will was that he Jesus "should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up on the last day" (ESV). Now let me ask you two questions, 1. Do you consider that you are a part of "all that he has given me",and 2. Is the Lord Jesus able to carry out His Fathers will? If you are able to answer yes to both questions, then you may rest asured that "once saved allways saved", is a fact. Remember it is Jesus, not you who must not lose your salvation. Read Colossians 3:1-3, and tell me how you can lose what is "hidden with Christ in God"?, and why is "glorified" written in the past tense, when it has not so far happened?. Well from the Divine view point in eternity is has allready happened, don't try to understand it, Just take God at His word, and believe Him. I have many more verses that support OSAS, if you want them, then just ask, however, I feel that the above should be enough, and don't worry about Heb 6:4-6, Scripture does not disagree with itself. |

203 | How does the verse help Paul's argument | 1 Cor 6:16 | ebrain | 162258 | ||
I would have thought v 15 would have made that crystal clear. As a Christian indwelt by the Holy Spirit who will never leave you, how can you possibly oblige Him to become one flesh with a prostitute, it is unthinkable. |

204 | Questions friend has asked | Rom 8:29 | ebrain | 162101 | ||
Conversion to accepting God at His word is due entirely to direct Divine intervention into the life of the person concerened, and has nothing whatsoever to do with human debate using logic, and reason. See also Mat 16:17, "flesh and blood has not revealed it to you,but my Father who is in heaven", and 1st Cor 2:14, "The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned". |

Who said they were?, give evidence. | ||||||
206 | The flood | Genesis | ebrain | 162097 | ||
There is ample evidence, might I suggest you look at a web site called "Answers in Genises". |

207 | Yes, I agree. Here's what I understand: | Prov 28:9 | ebrain | 162095 | ||
Further to my post to you of 11.10 am on 11/12/05 it might be of help to look at my other post of 12.08 pm on 11/11/05 in answer to the question "Is Jesus a Role Model for us?" | ||||||
208 | pls. explain john 14:21 | 2 Pet 1:4 | ebrain | 162065 | ||
What our Lord Jesus was speaking of was the soon to come indwelling of belivers by the Holy Spirit. In 2nd Peter 1:4. you are said to be "partakers of the Divine nature", whereas in Col 1:27 it is "Christ in you, the hope of glory". Another translation of John 14:21, is "If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him". |
||||||
209 | Yes, I agree. Here's what I understand: | Prov 28:9 | ebrain | 162043 | ||
Thank you Eliyahu for your post, and for your invitation to give my opinion. Without question the biggest single problem that the Church has is an abysmal lack of good quality in depth Bible teaching, the second problem is, if anything even worse, as the majority of Christians are not even aware of this. Fortunatly thank God, there is as allways that small number, that little remnant who do hunger, and thirst after right teaching. I only have the use of one hand, and am a rather slow single finger typist, if you would be kind enough to let me have your e-mail address, then I will be only to happy to forward to you material in connection with your request. May the Lord bless you, and keep you safe. Edwin Brain. pabrain@indent.co.uk |

210 | Is Jesus a role model for us? | Hebrews | ebrain | 161984 | ||
Yes indeed He is a role model for you, I suggest you read the following verses. Phil 2:5-13, also John 1:18. 5:19,and 30. 7:16-17. 11:41b-42. 14:9-11, but especially v 10. Acts 2:22. See how He did it, and you will see how you also can do it. "Not My will, but Thine be done". Matt 11:27-30. is you will find also helpfull. Remember we are looking here at the true Humanity, and not the Deity of Jesus, He is showing us how man is intended to behave in respect of, and towards God. Please feel free to write to me direct, if you would like to do so, I can be contacted at pabrain@indent.co.uk May the Lord bless you abundantly, and keep you safe. Edwin Brain. |

211 | 1 Samuel 15:3 - a loving God? | Ps 115:3 | ebrain | 161980 | ||
Do you feel the same about the Flood, or the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah or the Great Tribulation still to come? How can you loose your faith, when He who made you, laid down His life for you, and did not use one iota of his limitless power to avoid death by one of the most excruciatingly painfull death's known to man?. You may not understand why He did what He did at the verse you quote, but how can you doubt a Person of such unshakeable integrity, as the one who went through what He went through to to save you from Eternal Hell? |
||||||
212 | Torah observance in the church?? | Prov 28:9 | ebrain | 161977 | ||
Keeping the Torah is usually understood to mean keeping the law, however, Romans 10:4, tells us that "Christ is the end of the law for righteousness". This in my opinion does not refer to the moral law, but only to the ceremonial law, see also Romans 2:15, 4:13, 4:16, and 8:3. For example, circumcision is no longer required, but, one man with one woman to the exclusion of all others untill death, is still required. You might find it helpfull to read Matt Ch's 5, 6, and 7, where our Lord says at Matt 5:17.(Amplified) that He did not come to abolish the law, but to fulfill it, or more precisely to be the fulfillment of it. |
||||||
213 | Is the name Christian being ridiculed? | James 2:5 | ebrain | 161685 | ||
No they were blaspheming the name of God. The one by whom you were chosen, and whose name you now take see verse 5. Remember you are now called the children of God, and by adoption you have taken His name. As Scripture says you do not take His name in vain, in other words it will not be a mistake to take His name in the sense of becomming a member of His family. They were making fun of the name by which you were called, ie, God's name. |

214 | Were do angels go when they die. | Matt 22:30 | ebrain | 161677 | ||
As far as I am aware Angels do not die, but have eternal life as we Christians do. My understanding of the verse quoted is that as we humans are subject to death, there is a need for us to reproduce our own kind, but when we get to Heaven we will be like the Angles, who because they live for ever, have no need to reproduce there own kind. I may of course be wrong, but like Paul, I give my opinion as one who (I believe) has found favour in our Lord's sight. (1 Cor 7:25). |

215 | what it is to be born again? | 2 Cor 5:17 | ebrain | 161612 | ||
What our Lord Jesus was refering to in John Ch 3 vs 1-8, was two different types of life, physical life, and spiritual life. Now how did you become a member of the human race?, you were born into it, how much contribution did you make to your own physical birth?. none whatsoever, you owe your existance entirely to the activity of another person, namely your human father. Likewise your arrival into the spiritual world will (if you have not allready arrived there) also have nothing whatsoever to do with anything you can do. See Matthew Ch 19 vs 25-26, it will be entirely due to the work of another person, who will then be your Heavenly Father. See Matthew Ch 16 v 17, 1 cor Ch 2 v 14, John Ch 6 vs 44, and 65. To sum up therefore, "Born again" is not that which you become when you receive Jesus as your own personal saviour, but is an act of God beforehand which enables you to acept Jesus as your Saviour. Have a Look at Isaiah Ch 53 v 10b, "When you shall make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days". This means that when you offer to God the Sacrifical death of Jesus for your sins. Then He Jesus sees the fruition of the seed that He had beforehand planted in you, He is then able to prolong His days by taking up residence within you in the person of His other self, the Holy Spirit, See Ephesians Ch 1 vs 13-14. I do hope that this is of help to you. May the Lord bless you,and keep you safe. Christian love. ebrain. |

216 | Explain A Normal Christian Life? | Col 3:5 | ebrain | 161457 | ||

217 | What is a Nephilum? | Gen 6:4 | ebrain | 161358 | ||
The Nephilim were the product of sexual relations between fallen Angels, and human females. The expression "sons of God", when sons is spelt with a small "s" is a reference to Angels. In the Septuagint (Greek translation of the Hebrew OT) made about 300 BC, Nephilim is translated "Titan". The Titans in Greek mythology were reputed to be the result of the Greek gods comming down to earth, and having sexual relations with human females. The word Titan is normaly translated giant, which is why the ocean liner which sank in 1912 was called Titanic. A more accurate translation of titan would be grotesque, rather than giant. |
||||||
218 | Sexual Sin | Gen 2:18 | ebrain | 161090 | ||
Sexual sin is any sexual activity other than God allows. He requires, One man, one woman, to the exclusion of all others untill the death of one of them. Any sexual activity other than as permitted above is sexual sin. |
||||||
219 | Trinity | John 1:1 | ebrain | 160760 | ||
Understanding the Trinity is beyond human comprehention, however,the Lord does not require our understanding, but only that we take Him at His word, and believe Him. This we are able to do by exercising the gift of faith that He has given to each one of us. That is why Hebrews Ch 11 v 6, is so important. Matthew Ch 28 v 19, tells us to Baptize in the name (singular) not names (plural) of three persons. The Trinity is refered to right throught out Scripture, granted more so in the NT, but it is also found in the OT, let me give you just two OT, examples. Read Isaiah Ch 48 vs 12-16, but don't go all the way through v 16 just yet, read only the first two thirds of the verse, stop when you come to "I have been there". Now ask yourself the question, who is speaking?, the answer has to be none other that the LORD our God, read the rest of the verse and see who you think the first two thirds of this verse are refering to?. Look at Ex Ch 3 vs 6, 15, and Ch 4 v 5, three times He says "I am the God of three persons", and this He says three times, but v 16 of Ch 3 reads "the God of Abraham,of Isaac,and Jacob". The definate article "the" which is used three times in the other three verses is only used once in this verse 16, it is also the only verse of the four quoted above that includes "LORD". So there are 3 verses that indicate Trinity, whereas there is only one verse that indicates unity. |

220 | Did Eve hope she would be Jesus mother ? | Gen 4:1 | ebrain | 160549 | ||
I have been told that the words 'with the help of' are not found in the original Hebrew, and that it should read 'I have gotten a man child, the LORD'. In other words she thought that she had given birth to the Messiah, however I am not sure that this is in fact the correct interpritation. I shall be glad to hear what others have to say on this matter. Every blesing. ebrain. |
