201 | Can a Christian reject God's grace | NT general Archive 1 | hopalong | 192512 | ||
John 6:70 Jesus answered them, "Did I Myself not choose you, the twelve, and yet one of you is a devil?" John 6:71 Now He meant Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he, one of the twelve, was going to betray Him. Judas was the only one of the 12 whom Jesus named as being a devil. Hoppy |

No. I believe that all scripture is God given. It may help if you look up what a parable is. God Bless, Hoppy |

206 | how many of my father's hire has food to | Luke 15:11 | hopalong | 192091 | ||
Considering that we are dealing with a parable, we must be careful not to treat it as if it were an actual event. The way I see it, is that the wayward son was hungering for forgiveness and righteousness. Hoppy |

208 | Lack of faith | Rom 10:14 | hopalong | 191181 | ||
From The apostle Paul 1 Cor 2:14 But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised. The aostle John records the teaching of our Lord as saying : "No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him..." (John :44) Hopalong |

Dear Jeanne, are you familiar with the term "Legalism"? If you are not , I would recommend that you learn all you can about it. you may want to begin by going to...http://www.gotquestions.org/Bible-Christian-legalism.html. You may also profit from posting a question on this forum "What is legalism"? Hoppy |

211 | Reconciling Eph 2:8-9, with Rom 2:6-7. | Rom 2:1 | hopalong | 190232 | ||
Dear Old pilgrim, I believe that Paul has the church as a whole in mind. All churches are composed of those who are truly saved and those who merely think that they are saved. "by there fruit you will know them." It appears that the apostle is issuing a warning aimed at correcting those who ignore the fact that it is true repentance which leads to sanctification. Examine yourself is the message to all. Hopalong |

212 | The APOCALYPSE CODE. | Bible general Archive 3 | hopalong | 189876 | ||
As a former pentacostal, I feel obliged to come to Hank's defense. It was his book "Counterfit Revival" which opened my eyes to the errors and outright heresy being promoted throughout the Pentacostal community. In retrospect, I wonder where I would be had not the Holy Spirit used Hank's book to contribute to the eventual change in my theological perspective. Hopalong |

1 Cor 1:27 but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong, We who have recieved salvation would do well to praise God for His mercy, and to refrain from mocking those whom have not. Rom 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Hopalong |

215 | Who are the "sons of God" in Genesis 6? | Gen 6:2 | hopalong | 189152 | ||
Friend... The synopsis of Genesis chapter 6, is that the Sons of God took the daughters of men to wife. They were believers who disobeyed God and went after the unsaved women who looked good, and in turn they brought forth unsaved seed who corrupted the earth so that there was nothing but evil continually. And God saw what they had done and sent the flood to wipe out the wickedness. And all perished except Noah and His. let that be a lesson to all of us. We must not be unequally yoked with an unbeliever, for that will cause terrible repercussions down the road. Unfortunately, this is "Exactly" what is happening today. Not only with believers going after, and marrying unbelievers literally, but also spiritually as the church is unequally yoking themselves with unbelievers. They are making all kinds of excuses for their actions, and they just don't realize what this error will bring upon the Church. Just as it did when Israel went after the women and men of the heathen nations around her. These turned them to false Gods and abominations. Slowly but surely (like a creeping vine or spreading cancer) it became their destruction. I speak out about this, but somehow, this just doesn't seem important to the Church today. I sadly say, "we learn from history, ..that we do not learn from History." I know this is as it must be, but my earnest Prayer is that some (though few that must be), will by Grace of God begin to learn from History. ..Bible History. Peace,(Tony Warren) I agree with tony Warrens conclusion for the following reason: it is based on Scipture alone. Let the Bible interpret the Bible. Throughout the old and new Testaments "sons of God is" are believers! |

216 | Matthew 13:45-46 (NIV) Pls Explain | Matt 13:45 | hopalong | 188527 | ||
God bless. John Hi John, What were we prior to God's soveign call? Were we free men and women who could act chose; doing good or evil in accordance with whatever it pleased us to do? Not according to Holy Writ we were'nt. We were slaves. Slaves to Satan who held us in bondage to do whatsoever he willed (a). When we repented and surredered to Christ, we gave everything we had to Him! Our lives; our fortunes,; our wives and our children; our homes; our Jobs...everything. The problem that I have with the interpretaion (which says that the merchant is God and the Pearl is the Kingdom,) is that it makes God look needy of man. No my friend, God could make the stones cry out in praise to His glory if He so willed it. One cannot have the "Treasure" symbolize the Kingdom, and not have the Pearl stand for anything but the Kingdom as well. We surrendered all to the Soverign Lord of the Univese! The Kingdom of God is not a democracy. It is a Monarchy of the highest order. Our King rules over all we posess. They were a gift from Him to begin with! Therefore they are His to take from us if, that is His will. (a)1 Tim 3:7 And he must have a good reputation with those outside the church, so that he will not fall into reproach and the snare of the devil. 2:26 and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will.

217 | Matthew 13:45-46 (NIV) Pls Explain | Matt 13:45 | hopalong | 188474 | ||
Dear Mark, You wrote........ Its sure interesting the symbols Jesus selected. A pearl is a jewel formed inside that which is unclean. It's formed by accretion when something from outside comes in. The harvesting of the pearl destroys that which it was formed in. And it's value is not seen by looking at what's outside, only by knowing what's inside. Its interesting that all of these same things can be said of the church. I also find it interesting that some would say that Jesus is indicating that people can buy His kingdom! Act 20:28 . . . the assembly of God which He purchased through His own blood. Don't you just love the harmony? ------------------------------------------------- Please take another look, it may change your view. Matt 13:44 "The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid again; and from joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. That which was purchased by "man" was the KINGDOM. Matt 13:45 "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking fine pearls, Matt 13:46 and upon finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it. -------------------------------------- When we want to make a point, we may capitaltize the letters ,or use a bold type. But in Jesus day it was common to repeat what one has said by repeating it, but to so in a somewhat different way. After relating this parable (the Treasure) He begins by saying "again", and proceeds to the parable of the Pearl of great price. The Pearl in this parable, is the paralell to the tresure in the preceeding parable; both were the things which were purchased. Therefore, the idea that Jesus intended for the pearl to represent anything but the Kingdom of Heaven as well, would cause dis-harmony; rather than harmony. Hoppy |

Dear 00123, I think that it is an absurd interpretation. What ever value men have is a result of the the new birth. The natural man has nothing of value to offer God. Hoppy |

220 | How can we be sure we are right? | 1 Tim 6:3 | hopalong | 188136 | ||
Hi M, you ask... 1.Is there therefore only gospel/doctrine that we should abide in? Ans: the doctrine that is found between the covers of your Bible! That doctrine and that doctrine alone! 2. With so many doctrines/denominations, all professing to be right, how can we be sure that we are in Gods will/doctrine/gospel? By checking out the Scriptural foundation which the denomination provides. Praise God for, has not left us alone, but has endowed us with the gift of Holy Spirit. Gen 40:8 Then they said to him, "We have had a dream and there is no one to interpret it." Then Joseph said to them, "Do not interpretations belong to God? PRAY! Pray without ceasing, not relying on our own ability but on He that has the power to enlighten our blind eyes, and to show us the magnificent beauty and truth which He has blessed us to understand. God bless, Hopalong PS: I don't know of any truly "christian" denomination that proclaims that they are infallible in their interpretation. |
