22 | re: return to Bibical Christianity | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 62375 | ||
Dear Hank I didn't post the comment by an unknown source in order that we might try to analyze to originators accuracy of that statement. The reason I posted that comment was to see whether or not you and other participants in this forum, based upon your knowledge of the historical events which are called the Reformation Period, along with your knowledge of Scripture, do personally agree with the interesting quote. The quote once again is as follows: "the Reformation was just that: a reformation, not a complete return to biblical Christianity." do you believe that statement reflects your beliefs concerning the Reformation based upon what you know about it? Blessings to you |

23 | Bibical Christianity | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 62402 | ||
Dear Hank; When I use the term "Bibical Christianity" I mean that which is in full agreement with Scripture. Not in full agreement with me, or any certain denomination. But in full agreement with God's word. |

25 | hinderances to correct understanding | Bible general Archive 1 | New Creature | 86689 | ||
Do church goers begin to embrace certain teachings, because they have been indoctrinated by denominational creeds, and statements which they would not have otherwise arrived at, had they just stayed home and prayerfully read, studied, and mediatated on the Bible? In other words, can denominations be a hinderance to correct orthodoxy? Can you provide examples? |

26 | When did the Apostles receice salvation | NT general Archive 1 | New Creature | 40635 | ||
At what point in the life of the apostles, can we prove Bibically that they were converted (saved)? Was it when they were chosen by Jesus? Was it at the transfiguration? Was it at the resurrection? Was it at Pentecost? Or was it at sometime I failed to mention. Could you please give Scripture to prove why you believe the way you do. We had a discussion about this question in small group Bible study, and no one seemed to have a clear answer. I would appreciate all your help. | ||||||

30 | Worshiptainment | NT general Archive 1 | New Creature | 110101 | ||
Here is a quote I recently came across. Do you believe the author is justified in this statement? What are your thoughts? "Our churches no longer have the power of God to attract the people. They go down to Egypt, borrow its music, its dancing, it's entertainment, hoping for a crowd! No passion for souls - just crowds! Church growth at any cost! Look at the average church bulletin; it looks like a theater calendar. (Dave Wilkerson – Times Square Pulpit Series – The Great Apostasy – May 7, 1986) New Creature |

31 | The New Birth - A Survey | NT general Archive 1 | New Creature | 128859 | ||
I have been conducting an ongoing survey of willing participants in this forum. I would like to be able to wrap up my survey, but would appreciate your help. It would be helpful for me, if I could get as many responses as possible to the following question: In the event we Chrsitian's call "born again" which also has been called the new birth or regeneration, do you personally believe we are personally active or passive in bringing about our "new Birth?" All you have to do is answer; active or passive I do not desire to disagree with anyone, or argue about this with them. I just want to finish this survey and give you my findings. God Bless you all New Creature |

32 | The origin of evil | Gen 2:17 | New Creature | 102811 | ||
What is the origin of sin and evil? Recently I have read various thoughts and views about the origin of evil. In Norman Geislers book - Chosen But Free (Second Edition) pages 22-23 is the following text. "the power of moral free choice entails the ability either to choose the good God designed for us or to reject it. The latter is called evil. It is good to be free, but freedom makes evil possible. Free will is good in itself, but entailed in that good is the ability to choose the opposite of good, which then makes evil possible. If God made free creatures, and if it is good to be free, then the origin of evil is the misuse of freedom. This is not hard to understand. We all enjoy freedom to drive, but many abuse this freedom and drive recklessly. Yet we should not blame the government that gives us the license to drive for all the evil that we do with our cars. Those whose irresponsible driving kills others are responsible for what has happened. Remember: the government that gave us the permission to drive has also informed us to drive safely. Likewise, God is morally accountable for giving the good thing called free will, but He is not morally responsible for all the evil we do with our freedom. Solomon said it well: "This only have I found: God made mankind upright, but men have gone in search of many schemes" (Eccl. 7:29). In brief, God made the fact of freedom; we are responsible for the acts of freedom. The fact of freedom is good, even though some acts of of freedom are evil. God is the cause of the former, and we are the cause of the latter." Having read this do you agree or disagree with Geisler's view that the origin of evil can be attributed to created beings misusing their God given ability to choose good or evil? Why do you agree or disagree? New Creature |

33 | Flood account handed down through Shem? | Gen 11:10 | New Creature | 91795 | ||
From what can be learned from Bibical chronology, one can find that Shem, the son of Noah lived 600 years. The first 100 years of his life were spent before the flood, and then Shem continued living 500 years after the flood had passed. Also by following Bibical years, I find that Shem outlived Abraham, and Shem was alive even in Isaac and Jacob's days. What makes this so intresting, is the fact that Shem was one of only 8 people that witnessed the ark being built,the ungodliness of the human race before the flood, the taking of all the animals aboard the ark two by two, the rains descending until everyone that was not aboard the ark perished from the face of the earth. It must have been truly amazing to people like Abraham, and others to hear directly from Shem, the account of how the ark was built, about how all those species of animals and their food was taken aboard the ark. And to hear Shem speak about the cries of the ungodly people who drowned in the flood. And then, how after the flood, they began to repopulate the earth. Wouldn't it have been wonderful, if we would be able to read a more detailed account of what happened before, during and after the flood from people like Abraham and others who probably heard about it first hand from Shem himself. Maybe the reason why God had Shem, the Antediluvial patriarch continue to live 500 years even after the flood had passed. was so the post-flood people could learn in detail about the flood directly from only one of 8 survivors of the flood. Any thoughts from others? In His service New Creature |

36 | lawful on the sabbath days to do good | Deut 5:14 | New Creature | 104976 | ||
Dear wordoer I am appreciative that Doctor's and especially nurses who tend to the sick are available to work on Saturdays and Sundays. Didn't Jesus Himself even say; "Then said Jesus unto them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?" Luke 6:9 and Mark 3:4 Grace to you New Creature |

37 | Money - the answer for everything? | Ecclesiastes | New Creature | 115654 | ||
Since the Bible is to be used as the believer's guide-book for living, how should we view the following text of Scripture which apparently should not be used to guide believers in their daily walk? A feast is made for laughter and wine makes life merry, but money is the answer for everything. (Ecclesiastes 10:19 NIV) A a believer we know that money is not the answer to everything. So should this verse rather be understood as the thoughts of the unsaved rather than the saved? |

38 | How did sin originate | Is 14:12 | New Creature | 43832 | ||
I read in Gen. 1:31 "And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, [it was] very good." Everything God created was very good. There was nothing bad about anything He created. I believe that! I also believe God created Lucifer and God didn't create Lucifer into a sinner. However the the first sin is attributed to Lucifer. So what EXACTLY caused Lucifer to commit the first sin, who later tempted Adam and Eve to sin, since we know that God is not the originator of sin and does not tempt anyone? How did the temptation of Lucifer come about or originate? James 1:13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: |
