21 | THREE WAYS TO BE SAVED? | John 1:12 | 2ndSamuel22 | 51292 | ||
Greetings Kimmy!! For the complete plan of salvation from God's own Word, read Acts 16:29-31--- Acts 16:29 And he called for lights and rushed in, and trembling with fear he fell down before Paul and Silas, Acts 16:30 and after he brought them out, he said, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" Acts 16:31 They said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household." If you want to say three things are necessary, then rememer ABC: Admit you are a sinner Believe Jesus died for you Confess His name Slavation is a gift from God. When have you ever had to give someone something in order to receive a gift? If you have, then it is not a gift. And if you have to go through a bunch of rituals in order to receive the gift of salvation, then it is not a gift, and God is a liar(Which we all know He is not, Titus 1:2). May the Grace of Our Lord be with you!! 2nd Samuel 22 |

22 | What year did Jesus die? | Bible general Archive 1 | 2ndSamuel22 | 51139 | ||
Greetings songbird!! Well, the best way to answer your question is this: We cannot be sure in this day what His exact dates of birth and death are, because of the many, many changes to the calender over the centuries. The closest I have heard is that He was born(bodily) in about 4 A.D. So assuming he lived(bodily) for about 33 years, I would say he died on the cross in about 37 A.D. May the Grace of Our Lord be with you!! 2nd Samuel 22 |

23 | Will God ever remember our sins even aft | Is 43:25 | 2ndSamuel22 | 49931 | ||
Greetings, Native!! Psalm 103:7-13-- Ps 103:8 The LORD is compassionate and gracious, Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness. Ps 103:9 He will not always strive with us, Nor will He keep His anger forever. Ps 103:10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. Ps 103:11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His lovingkindness toward those who fear Him. Ps 103:12 AS FAR AS THE EAST IS FROM THE WEST, SO FAR HAS HE REMOVED OUR TRANSGRESSIONS FROM US. Ps 103:13 Just as a father has compassion on his children, So the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him. Notice the emphasis on verse 12. Here's something I read that sheds further light on this verse: If you go far enough north, you will eventually start going south. BUT--if you start going west, you will ALWAYS be going west. This same rule applies if you start going east-you will ALWAYS go east. That is how far east is from west. "East is east and west is west, and never the twain shall meet"--Rudyard Kipling May the Peace of God abound in you!! 2nd Samuel 22 |

24 | Was Clopas Cleopas? | NT general Archive 1 | 2ndSamuel22 | 49930 | ||
Greetings, songbird!! Yes, the Clopas in John(or, Cleophas in the KJV) is indeed the same as Cleopas in Luke 24. Why the different spellings, I do not know. As far as Simon, I believe that is also Peter. It may, however, be another of the apostles, Simon the Zealot. Peace be with you always!! 2nd Samuel 22 |

26 | How many books of the bible about war? | Revelation | 2ndSamuel22 | 49843 | ||
Revelations is the only book which refers to "Armageddon"(and some texts read the Hebrew, Har Megiddo), although some OT books do refer to Megiddo, or Megiddon |

27 | Why not Brothers? | 1 Cor 11:3 | 2ndSamuel22 | 49722 | ||
I Corinthians 11:3--"But I want you to understand that Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and GOD IS THE HEAD OF CHRIST." Luke 22:42--saying, "Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me; YET NOT MY WILL BUT YOURS BE DONE." Collosians 2:9--"For in Him(Jesus Christ) ALL the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form," Matthew 16:15 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Matthew 16:16 Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the SON of the living God." Matthew 16:17 And Jesus said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon Barjona, because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but MY FATHER WHO IS IN HEAVEN..." [all emphases mine] Thus is the mystery of the Trinity. Why many people wonder how 3 can be 1, and 1 be 3. I don't have quite the extensive background as some of the more learned people on this forum, but here's a start: Jesus IS, WAS and will ALWAYS BE one with God(John 1:1). However, Jesus the Son does the will of God the Father. The best way I know how to say it is this: They are one in majesty and sovereignty; however, God is the head of all. Like I said, it's a start. And perhaps someone else can futher expound on this. May the blessings of the LORD thy God be with you always. 2nd Samuel 22 |

28 | is homosexuality a sin? | Rom 1:27 | 2ndSamuel22 | 49274 | ||
Greetings, wildlight! Here are just a few verses which prove that homosexuality is unbiblical, in fact an abomination: Lev. 18:22--"Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination."(KJV) Lev. 20:13--"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination..."(KJV) I Cor. 6:--"Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor EFFEMINATE, nor HOMOSEXUALS,...will inherit the kingdom of God."(NASB)--[all emphasis mine] I hope this helps! 2nd Samuel 22 |

29 | what is baptism of the dead 1 cor 15:29 | 1 Corinthians | 2ndSamuel22 | 47941 | ||
Paul here is asking the Corinthians this question: If Jesus was not resurrected, but was still dead, then why are so many being baptized in His name(v.29)? And why do so many suffer persecution, some even unto death, for a dead man(v.30) The KJV and the NKJV both end v.29 with,"...baptized for THE DEAD" instead of,"...baptized for THEM"[all emphasis mine], because the "dead" that Paul is refering to is Jesus, not a group of people. One can not be baptized for the dead, as the Mormons believe. They have based a large portion of their religion on this one verse. But I digress. I hope that clears things up for you. 2nd samuel 22:36-37 |

30 | compare Genesis with Deuteronomy | OT general | 2ndSamuel22 | 47889 | ||
Simeon's name is missing. Charles Ryrie and Matthew Henry put it this way: In the Septuagint, Simeon is included at the end of v.6, since his portion was within the border of Judah(see Joshua 19:9, then reference back to Gen.49:5-7). That is the only answer I can come up with right now; maybe someone else can assist. May God bless you and keep you. 2nd Samuel 22:36-37 |

31 | Is the Bible filled with TRUTH? | Bible general Archive 1 | 2ndSamuel22 | 47887 | ||
Romans 16:17--"Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them." Dear Aggie, I would like to ask you a couple of questions about your new preacher: 1) Has he mentioned specifically where any errors exist? If so, where? 2) Which translation does he use? If it's the NIV, I would question his claims. I don't mean to sound "King James Only", but I have not read one valid defense of the NIV, however, other than "it's easier to read." I have not seen one plausible explanation for the many omissions, such as leaving out "which art in heaven" from Luke 11. Or why there is no mention of the Trinity. There are more, too many to post here. My dear sister in Christ, before you question your salvation, ask yourself these questions: --Do I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that He walked the earth in human form?(Romans 1:3) --Do I believe that He died on the cross for my sins(John 3:16), and was risen again on the third day?(Romans 10:9) --Do I believe that Jesus ALONE is my redeemer, and that He is of the Holy Trinity of the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost?(1 John 5:7) If you answered "yes" to all these questions, then you ARE saved. the bible translation you use will not keep you out of God's heavenly kingdom, anymore than it would get you in. If you are more comfortable with the King James, then that is the one you should use. It's the one I grew up on, and I understood it quite well, even at 8 yrs old. In closing, always remember "That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God"(I Cor.2:5), and"the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power."(I Cor.4:20) May God bless you and keep you 2nd Samuel 22:36-37 |

32 | Who'd Be In Charge? | Gen 24:5 | 2ndSamuel22 | 47481 | ||
Greetings, Lionstrong. The issue is not whether Isaac was ready to take charge, but where Abraham did not want Isaac to go. Remember, God called Abraham out of Ur of the Chaldees("...the land from which you came", v.5), an area much like Canaan in that it was filled with sin. Therefore, Abraham did not want his son to take a wife from there(Gen.24:3), and made his servant swear an oath by God(v.2-3, v.9) to this effect. Many Old Testament passages are much different than those in the New Testament, in that the OT is made up chiefly of historical accounts, which cannot always be analyzed one verse at a time like the NT. I hope I have been able to help. He Will 2nd Samuel 22:26-28 |

33 | Is Jesus the merchant... ... | Matt 13:45 | 2ndSamuel22 | 47256 | ||
Greetings, Rivertree. I hope I can be of help. Read on to v.46. I believe Jesus is the pearl, and we are the merchants. The KJV says in v.45, "the kingdom of heaven is like UNTO a merchant man seeking goodly pearls"[emphasis mine], meaning the merchant is seeking goodly pearls, and finds one, that being the kingdom of heaven. When we find the pearl, Jesus(or, when God lays upon us the spirit of conviction, and we turn to Him), we find the kingdom of heaven. We then sell all we have(in other words, we give up all our worldly ways), and receive Him. That's how I read it. He will 2nd Samuel 22:26-28 |

35 | If Jesus became sin why is he in Heaven? | NT general Archive 1 | 2ndSamuel22 | 45960 | ||
Hey DD. That is a very interesting question you pose. When they laid the cross down, and nailed Jesus to it, He became the "Lamb with no blemish",and all the sins of mankind were placed upon Him. When they raised Him up, He became the "priest forever in the order of Mechizedec"(Heb 7:17), lifting them up to God. After He died the risen Christ became the Firstborn of the resurrected(Col. 1:18--And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.) Another verse to refer to would be Hebrews 2:9--But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. So if we bear our own sins, without giving them to Jesus to take to the Father, then they will remain with us, unforgiven. But, if we take our self, allow it to be crucified with Christ(Gal 2:20), become a new creation through His righteousness(2 Cor 5:17), then His blood cleanses our soul(1 Tim 2:5), so we may enter His holy presence.

36 | Why do today's Jews reject Jesus? | OT general | 2ndSamuel22 | 45865 | ||
Amber, I hope I can shed some light on this subject. 1. The most obvious refutation of the erroneous argument that Jesus is not God is Psalm 110:1-4 1 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool. 2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies. 3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth. 4 The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. This of course defines the holiness of Jesus. David himself states quite clearly that Jesus has been at the right hand of God, and that God would send Him to be His high priest. 2. As far as the humanness of Jesus, one could quote Isaiah ch.11. Matthew Henry wrote an excellent commentary on this chapter--http://www.blueletterbible.org/tmp_dir/comm_read/1019870856.html--about how Jesus would spring from the root of Jesse(note- in Mr. Henry's commentary, when he refers to "meanness", it refers to modesty, not wickedness.), or from an earthly lineage. I hope I've helped to shed some light on this subject, and maybe someone else can illuminate even further. He will 2nd Samuel 22:26-28 |

37 | Who are these? | Rev 13:6 | 2ndSamuel22 | 44973 | ||
My interpretation(For what it's worth).. I would say "those who dwell in heaven" are the raptured saints. Almost every translation says Antichrist will blaspheme God, His name, His temple, AND those who dwell in heaven(note the implication made when the NASB says "THAT IS, those who dwell in heaven"). As far as Antichrist making war with "the saints", I would say these are the ones who are left behind after the rapture but after which give their lives to Christ(tribulation saints). Rev 13:8 makes the distinction that those who worship Antichrist will be those whose names "are not written in the book of life..." Well, that's my take on it. I hope I helped. |

38 | 2 Kings 16 in our worship practices? | 2 Kin 16:11 | 2ndSamuel22 | 44971 | ||
How familiar does this sound: 2Kings16:7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria, saying, "I am your servant and your son; come up and deliver me from the hand of the king of Aram and from the hand of the king of Israel, who are rising up against me." 16:8 Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the king's house, and sent a present to the king of Assyria.(NASB) How many times today do we compromise our biblical principles so we don't sound "mean" or "intolerant". And how often do we affiliate ourselves with the unholy just so we can make our point, no matter how trivial it is? |
