21 | why did god put satin on earth with us | Bible general | EdB | 241181 | ||
God didn't put Satan anywhere. God created Satan and Satan rebelled. Satan has access to heaven and earth. Satan the accuser of the saints goes to heaven to accuse us. See the book of Job. Satan also roams the earth seeking who he can devour. God told Adam to keep/guard the garden. In this Adam failed and allowed Satan access to Eve who was deceived. Had Adam did as he was instructed Satan would not have had access to the garden or Eve. One day God will finally toss Satan out of Heaven and then eventually cast him into the lake of fire. |

22 | were in the bible does it say satin is t | Bible general | EdB | 241187 | ||
Job 1:6-7 (NASB) 6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them. 7 The LORD said to Satan, "From where do you come?" Then Satan answered the LORD and said, "From roaming about on the earth and walking around on it." To stand before God you have to access to heaven. Revelation 12:10 (NASB) 10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, he who accuses them before our God day and night. You can't accuse the saints unless you can go into the presence of God. It isn't until late in the End Times that we see Satan cast down to earth. |

23 | What are all the angles names mentioned | Bible general | EdB | 241198 | ||
There are only five angels named in the Bible: Abaddon, Beelzebul, Gabriel, Michael, and Satan. Three are fallen angels, and two serve God. http://carm.org/names-of-angels-in-bible |

24 | how old Jesus was | Bible general | EdB | 241235 | ||
In the culture of the time a male wasn't considered mature enough to teach until he was 30 years old. This probably came from the Old Testament requirement that a priest was to be between 30-50 years old. Numbers 4:28 Therefore most believe Jesus was at least 30 years old when he started his ministry. We know his ministry was 3 years long. So that would make Jesus 33 when he was crucified, died and was resurrected. As for the year of his birth the problem is with our calendar that has changed many times. While our calendar is constructed to make the year after 1 BC the birth year of Jesus, in all likelihood Jesus was actually born 4 years sooner in 4BC. Again we have to rely on secular history to make this determination. And secular history because it is not inspired of God is often altered over time. As we see happening today in many of accounts of past recent history. |

26 | Jehovah's witnesses | Bible general | EdB | 241251 | ||
The Jehovah Witnesses are founded on a lie. Their Bible the New World Translation is not authentic. The JW will not reveal the people involved in the translation or which original manuscripts they used. However what is known is all the people associated with JW at the time were incapable of translating the NWT. Therefore it is simply a rewrite of the KJV with changes made to suit or conform to JW teaching. The biggest problem is John 1:1. Orthodox Christianity teaches Jesus was not a created being but was God. This is confirmed in John 1:1. However the JW teach that Jesus was a created being and changed John 1:1 to say he became God rather than He was God. Also JW do not believe in grace alone but insists works are needed to get you into heaven. They are very close to Christianity and that is why they are so dangerous. If they were miles apart it would be easy to see them for what they are. However since they are so close it is hard to distinguish between the truth and the lie. Jesus said He was the door through which we must pass to reach the Father. Orthodox Christianity's Jesus is God the Son the ever existent being that manifested Himself to man. Jehovah Witness's Jesus is a created being. Created in the minds of the JW leadership. Therefore not the true door way that leads to God eternal. There are many other problems with the JW belief system but I highlighted the most erroneous. I suggest you read Walter Martin's Kingdom of the Cults to get a full understanding of falsehoods of the JW. |

27 | Where does it mention the Sheehans? | Bible general | EdB | 241292 | ||
Sheehans is a disease as far as I know so I think you mean Shekinah Glory. The word shekinah does not appear in the Bible, but the concept clearly does. The Jewish rabbis coined this extra-biblical expression, a form of a Hebrew word that literally means "he caused to dwell," signifying that it was a divine visitation of the presence or dwelling of JEHOVAH God on this earth. The Shekinah was first evident when the Israelites set out from Succoth in their escape from Egypt. There it appeared as a cloudy pillar in the day and a fiery pillar by night: “After leaving Succoth they camped at Etham on the edge of the desert. By day the LORD went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so that they could travel by day or night. Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people” (Exodus 13:20-22). Read more: http://www.gotquestions.org/shekinah-glory.html#ixzz3EAjWVbFm |

28 | is wearing jewelry leads to hell ? | Bible general | EdB | 241294 | ||
Jesus died on the cross. What sends us to hell is our refusal to accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. The motive for wearing Jewelry is far more telling than the jewelry itself. If we are wearing jewelry to flaunt our wealth then we have a problem in our heart as it is not set on Jesus. If we are wearing Jewelry to brighten our appearance or to signify we are engaged or married there isn't a problem. |

30 | Jehovah's name | Bible general | EdB | 241380 | ||
The name Jehovah is made up. Most scholars contribute it to Tyndale. It is believed he took the tetragram YHWH and added the vowels from the Greek word for God "Adonai". The Latin influence of pronunciation of Y becomes J and W to V |
||||||
31 | Theos - Adonai | Bible general | EdB | 241386 | ||
I'm sorry my answer yesterday was totally off, I really don't know where it came from. My Apology!!!! YHWH (Yodh He Waw He)made up of Hebrew letters and is the term used for God approx 6800 times in original manuscripts. The error in my original answer was on the origin of the word Adonai which means LORD in Hebrew not Latin or Greek. However both the Greeks and Roman had gods named similarily. Adonis and Adonia. Tyndale it is believed took the word YHWH which modern Jews do not speak and combined it with vowels of the word Adonai (Lord). The word Adonai was commonly used when speaking of God. The problem with contributing Jehovah to Tyndale is some Masoretic text did vowel point the YHWH to make it appear as Ye ho vah but it was still pronounced Adonai (Lord or Master). In any case the word Jehovah as we pronounce it first showed up in English in the Tyndales Bible and as such Tyndale is said to have made the word. Again sorry if I made you lose any sleep. :-) |

32 | Sex before marriage ? | Bible general | EdB | 241395 | ||
First to answer your question requires speculation and as you probably know speculation on this forum is frowned on. That said and risking the wrath of many I will offer my speculation. Matthew 22:1-14 speaks of this. The man in verse 11 thought he was saved but hadn't changed. I think the church in America today is filled with people that believe they are saved but haven't changed. J Vernon McGee once said over 65 percent of the people sitting in church are not saved. I questioned this and surveyed brother pastors. The results I now believe that the actual number is only about 10 percent of those that attend church are actually saved. Many think they can fool God. Fornication is sin any way you cut it. |

33 | Has The GLORY of the LORD left the USA? | Bible general | EdB | 241530 | ||
Justme this question requires speculation and that is frowned upon on this forum. That said and at the risk of chastisement I will take a stab at your question. Scripture tells us God protected Israel as a nation, but in cases of other protection it was most usually an individual. We are also told by scripture that all governments are God ordained, be they bad or good. I think as Christians we need to rest trusting in God for His protection of us and not so much for our nation. At the judgment seat no nation will stand only individuals. |

34 | difference in a Christians funeral? | Bible general | EdB | 241532 | ||
Our society is becoming more and more mixed Christian - Non. Sadly this trend is equally occurring in our families and friends. At one time Christians had Christian families and friends. God was present in the funeral. Today in many cases there is a wide range of beliefs. The lost of this world have no hope thus their funerals are hopeless and without God's presence. That is the difference. Is God present or not? As a Christian I have little regard for my funeral in fact all I want is a celebration service. When I discard this tent I have no use for it and no desire to eulogize it or my life. My reward await me in heaven. |

35 | HCSB what's your opinion? | Bible general | EdB | 241544 | ||
Opinion HCSB is another of many translations. Many denominations sought easy to read and easy to understand translations to use in their denominational material. Like Sunday School material and internal magazine articles. However some publishers made changed to these translation to be more marketable ("gender correctness") it put the denominations that were using their material and didn't agree with the changes in a bad position. The Baptist decided to prevent future occurances of this happening they decided to publish their own translatiion which they could insure stayed true to their beliefs. I believe the HCSB used both the Westcott Hort Greek and the Textus Receptus. However when there is a discreptency they do not identify it other than saying some manuscripts say this or omit that. |

36 | White linen and blue linen symbolizes..? | Bible general | EdB | 241606 | ||
We generally see four colors. Red - Blood Blue - Sky or watere Purple - Royality White - Purity Purple and Blue were not mixed colors but instead were dyes obtained from Molusk and thus were very expensive. Red often came from fruit and was less expensive and of course white was bleached linen. Some see the four colors are all shadows, representing the four facets of Jesus, and the four Gospels. Purple - color of royalty, corresponds to Matthew, who portrays Jesus as King, also represented by the face of a lion. White - color of servant, corresponds to Mark, who portrays Jesus as the servant, also represented by the face of an ox. Red - color of blood, corresponds to Luke, who portrays Jesus as man, also represented by the face of a man. Blue - color of Heaven, corresponds to John, who portrays Jesus as God, also represented by the face of an eagle. Other see Blue-King, Scarlet-Judge, Purple-Prophet, and agan white purity |

37 | Where is Heaven ? | Bible general | EdB | 241756 | ||
Heaven is where God resides. It is a spiritual kingdom that is far superior to our physical world. It is hard for us to understand spiritual realities but as we draw closer to God more and more are revealed to us. Seek God and let your faith be strengthen and increased. |

38 | Where does affliction come from ? | Bible general | EdB | 241758 | ||
When we are in sin and being convicted it is usually our conscience or the Holy Spirit. If we are being tormented then it is from the adversary. |
||||||
39 | Where do threatening voices come from ? | Bible general | EdB | 241760 | ||
Jail/Prison is a reality of committing a crime. We can be forgiven by God but if tried and convicted of a crime we still must face jail. But this life is short scripture says it is like a whisp of smoke. So what is important is where we spend eternity. If we believe and trust in Jesus we will spend eternity with Him. You really need to sit down and talk to a Pastor. |
||||||
40 | Christ Jesus took our punishment for our | Bible general | EdB | 241762 | ||
To be forgiven of sin you must believe and trust in Jesus Christ. If you truly believe in Jesus you will not intentionally sin. If you do sin you will be equally quick to repent and to make it right. True followers of Christ do not seek to find out how much sin they can get away with, instead they seek how to live holy and far away from sin. As Jesus told the woman caught in adultery, go and sin no more. That is a lifestyle every Christian should strive for to go and sin no more. |
