21 | what is grace | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236146 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the Forum. Grace is all that God is free to do for mankind on the basis of what Jesus Christ did on the cross. It can not be earned or worked for, if it could be then it wouldn't be grace. There is a play on the word GRACE (God's Riches At Christ's Expense) Grace is actually the plan of God for mankind since Jesus was here the first time. Have a great day, CDBJ |

22 | the rapture | NT general | CDBJ | 236064 | ||
Mass confusion? Your post as follows, in part: “In Revelation 9:1-6 the fifth seal, God is instructing Satan what he can and can't do durning his five month tribulation here on earth) I’m not quite sure what translation you are using but in my NASB the fifth seal is opened in the 6th chapter in verse 9. Revelation 6:9 (NASB) 9 When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God, and because of the testimony which they had maintained; I also can’t find in chapter 9 where Satin’s name is even mentioned; and are you confused between the seals and the trumpets? I also wasn’t entirely clear where the tribulation is only five months in duration: I can’t find that at all! Please advise, it’s not clear, CDBJ |

23 | Rev 22:12 and post millennial judgement? | Revelation | CDBJ | 235973 | ||
Greetings, Hebrews 9:27 (NKJV) 27 And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, Seeing as how this is the case when will those that are born during the millennium be judged seeing that they will be born with an old sin nature yet many will believed in Jesus? The only judgment mentioned in Scripture after that period is the white throne judgment, even though the dead unbelievers are judged then it is possible the those that believe in Christ during the thousand year reign might be judged at that time as well out of the book of life and for their works. Believers alive before the rapture will be judged for their works after the rapture and are judged at the (BEMA) seat of Christ and their works will be tried by fire, i.e. wood hay and stubble or gold silver and precious stones; this judgment is for rewards only. Christ says that He comes quickly and my reward is with me. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Welcome to the forum but I must ask the following. Due to the specific wording of your post, does either one of your two questions pertain to a homework assignment? First point under the rules of terms of use. The Forum is not intended to provide or be a source for answering test or homework questions of those that are students. Questions asked should be from a true desire to learn and not as an easy substitute for the learning process (3/8/11). Please inform, CDBJ |

25 | What season was Jesus born in. | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 235778 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. The correct answer to your question isn’t actually expressed and this has been a hot topic for years. Just trying to determine the actual year is hard enough. Extra biblical efforts place it around 7 to 4, will say BC and it had to be fairly warm for the trip to be plausible so likely spring sometime but again no one knows. Sorry I couldn’t be of much help but I hope you enjoy the forum. CDBJ |

26 | "Lamp of the wicked" | OT general | CDBJ | 235774 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. I’m thinking that you might be referring to Prov. 13:9 instead of Prov. 21:4? Proverbs 13:9 (KJV) 9 The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out. This, as I have been lead to understand, is a reference to ones life. It could be said in today’s vernacular that the plug was pulled. This is from (Bible Knowledge Commentary) 13:9. A light and a lamp, common metaphors (cf. 6:23; 20:20; 21:4; 24:20; Job 18:5-6; Ps. 119:105), refer here to physical life. If a lamp in a Near Eastern tent went out at night, the surroundings were pitch dark, mindful of the darkness of death. The righteous will have a long life, but the wicked will die early.

27 | Murder Ok for Israel | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 235761 | ||
Are you saying that God made a mistake by not seeing things quite the way you see them? When we discover the truth of Scripture it stands in judgment of us, we don't stand in judgment of it! CDBJ |

28 | Is Cain Exempted in Hell | Genesis | CDBJ | 235760 | ||
Did God come right out specifically ever tell you that you were going to heaven or hell or is that something you are still working on? CDBJ |

29 | Are they still alive | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 235759 | ||
Then the answer is: yes they are still alive, it was Peter, James and John and yes they saw Christ in His glory and kingdom and yes they did "taste" of death, i.e. absent from the body and face to face with the Lord. No biblical verses to prove it at this point, since that isn't what you say you wanted, CDBJ |

30 | which cult dREW Christianity baPTISM | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 235749 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. There are some who would contend that baptism was first practiced by the Egyptian cults and it was also practiced buy the Israelites of old but the actual facts are as follows. The word baptism is actually a transliteration from the word, “BAPTIZMA” and it was “first used” by Homer in his infamous Homeric Epics the Iliad and the Odyssey. The first use of baptism was depicted by a sword being plunged into a blood bath, this was a tempering process that hardened it and it gave it an association with the blood from that point on. We, being those that have put the entirety of their faith in the Son of God and the work that He finished on the cross, are "then" plunged into water. A ritual, like an oath, "to show" our eternal association with Jesus Christ our Saviour, God the Father and God the Holy Spirit from then on. It’s interesting to note that the Bible revels two types of baptism, one being wet, which is a ritual and the other one being dry, which is real. Matthew 3:11 (NKJV) 11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, (i.e. a change of thinking about the person of Jesus the Christ) but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, (because He is the Lord God all Mighty) whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. (One and or the other as a believer or an unbeliever) I hope this helps and that you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |

32 | Live over 2000 years Old | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 235742 | ||
The best translator of the Bible is the Bible it’s self. Matthew 16:28 (NKJV) 28 Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom." Matthew 17:1-3 (NKJV) 1 Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves; 2 and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light. 3 And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Him. Suffice to say with the exact dates in question, that the original Word of God wasn’t divided into chapters and verses. The Bible was divided into present-day chapters by Stephen Langton about 1200 CE. Verses were separated and numbered by Robert Stephanus in 1557. What I am trying to say is, when Matt. 16:28 is connected with Matt. 17:1-3, i.e. no chapter brake, the situation makes sense. It tells who the individuals are and what they saw. Text taken out of context is usually for a pretext! CDBJ |

33 | Are they the same God | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 235739 | ||
Greetings, Just to set the record straight: God didn’t say what is written in “most” of our English translations of God’s Word. Exodus 20:13 (KJV) 13 Thou shalt not kill. The more exact translation for kill, in the English, is taken from the Hebrew word, “RASAH” and it should read as it is found in the NASB or New American Standard Bible. Exodus 20:13 (NASB) 13 "You shall not murder. Murder is used with reference to a civil code where as to kill is referring to the function of military forces in a time of war and believers are supposed to be the best at it while under God’s instruction. Psalm 144:1 (NASB) 1 Blessed be the LORD, my rock, Who trains my hands for war, And my fingers for battle; CDBJ |

39 | the word every mean allwith noexceptions | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 235667 | ||
Greetings, Your question,” Genesis 6:19 does the word every mean all members or classes with no exceptions?” The Hebrew language does not lend itself to specifics as does the Koine Greek with exact distinctions such as tense, case, mood, and voice. If you would take the time to exegete the word in question in the Septuagint you could likely come to an answer that would satisfy or detract from your point of reasoning. The Hebrew has only this to consider with out spending hours deciphering the word translated from, “HAYA”. (Vine’s) Usage Number: 1 Part Of Speech: Verb Strong's Number: H2421 Original Word:, haya Usage Notes: "to live." This verb, which has cognates in most other Semitic languages (except Akkadian), occurs 284 times in biblical Hebrew and in all periods. In the ground stem this verb connotes "having life": "And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years…" (Gen. 5:3). A similar meaning appears in Num. 14:38 and Josh. 9:21. The intensive form of haya means "to preserve alive": "…Two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee…" (Gen. 6:19). This word may also mean "to bring to life" or "to cause to live": "…I dwell… with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones" (Isa. 57:15). "To live" is more than physical existence. According to Deut. 8:3, "man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live." Moses said to Israel: "…Love the Lord thy God… that thou mayest live and multiply" (Deut. 30:16). Vine's Expository Dictionary of Old Testament and New Testament Words. Sorry to say this word doesn’t cover intricate aspects of any phylum. CDBJ |

40 | don"t know chapter! | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 235627 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. I’m note quite sure if this is what you are looking for but you are a we bit off track thinking that one has a second chance after the die to respond to the gospel message. There is a verse that backs this up in the gospel of John. John 3:18 (NKJV) 18 He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Your next question might be, but what if they haven’t heard of Jesus. The book of John tells us that this is the responsibility of the Holy Spirit. John 16:8-10 (NKJV) 8 And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9 of sin, because they do not believe in Me; 10 of righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me no more; John 3:36 (NKJV) 36 He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." Now the verses that you might be referring to is found in the following. 1 Peter 3:18-20 (NKJV) 18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit, 19 by whom also He went and preached to the spirits in prison, 20 who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water. The spirits here are those referred to in Genesis called in the Hebrew the "Nephilim" (or "giants") which were half human and half angelic. This is explained in Jude. Jude 1:6-7 (NKJV) 6 And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day; 7 as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. These were the spirits that tried to stop the promise of God which was that He would send the seed of the woman who would be the Messiah. Messiah would crush Satan’s head and provide our so great salvation which was the gift from God to all those that would trust in the work He would do. Romans 6:23 (NKJV) 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. I hope I haven’t confused you and that you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |
