24 | God will not put more than we can bear | 1 Corinthians | John Ryals | 227997 | ||
1st Corinthians 10:13; 13) "There has no temptation taken you but such is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that you are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that you may be able to bear it." This verse refers to the limitations God has placed upon Satan respecting that which he can or cannot do; as we have God's promise; all temptation is overcome by our Faith remaining constant in Christ and the Cross , which gives the Power of the Holy Spirit to help us, [Rom. 8:2] in the "way of escape" is always the Cross. [Eph. 6:10-18] I hope this is what you are searching for, if not get back with me and we will do our best with the help of the Holy Spirit. I pray to the Heavenly Father that you come through your surgery with no complications and a have quick recovery. Amen. May God Bless You John Ryals |

26 | Does the Bible refer to Peter being hung | NT general | John Ryals | 227994 | ||
The Bible only mentions the deaths of two apostles, James who was put to death by Herod Agrippa I in 44 AD and Judas Iscariot who committed suicide shortly after the death of Christ. The details of the deaths of three of the apostles, (John, the Beloved, Bartholomew and Simon the Canaanite) are not known at all, either by tradition or early historians. The deaths of the other seven apostles are known by tradition or the writings of early Christian historians. According to traditions and the Bible, eight of the Apostles died as Martyrs. At least two of the Apostle's Peter and Andrew were crucified. Simon surnamed Peter died 33-34 years after the death of Christ. According to Smith's Bible Dictionary there is "satisfactory evidence that he and Paul were the founders of the Church at Rome, and died in that city. The time and manner of the apostle's martyrdom are less certain. According to the early writers, he died at or about the same time with Paul, and in the Neronian persecution, AD 67,68. All agree that he was crucified. origin says that Peter felt himself to be unworthy to be put to death in the same manner as his Master, and was therefore at his request, crucified with his head down. I pray this information is useful to the furtherance of the Gospel for Christ. May God Bless You |

27 | Can just anyone be a preacher? | Mark 16:15 | John Ryals | 227988 | ||
Ephesians 4:7-11 7) But unto every one of us is given Grave according to the measure of the Gift of Christ. 8) Wherefore He said, When He ascended up on high, He led captivity captive, and gave Gifts unto men. 9) (Now that He ascended, what is it but that He also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? 10) He Who descended is the same also Who ascended up far above all Heavens, that He might fill all things.) 11) And He gave some, Apostles; and some, Prophets; and some, Evangelists; and some, Pastors and Teachers. Our Lord does the calling. Verse 11 has reference to the fact that not all who are called to be Ministers will be called to be Apostles; this applies to the other designations as well; "Apostles" serve as the de facto leaders of the Church and do so through the particular Message given them by the Lord for the Church. "Prophets" stand in the 'Office of the Prophet', thereby, foretelling and forthtelling, the "Evangelists' are to gather the harvest, the "Pastors" are the 'Shepherds', and the "Teachers" are those with a special Ministry to teach the word to the Body of Christ; "Apostles" can and do function in all of the callings. I pray my opening statement,"Our Lord does the calling," helps with your question. May God Bless You! |

28 | Jesus was born in 4 bc | Luke 2:7 | John Ryals | 227967 | ||
The scripture I chose only supports the birth of Jesus. As to the answering of your question: B.C. stands for 'Before Christ', and A. D. means 'Anno Domini' which is a Latin Translation which means, 'in the year of our Lord.' | ||||||

30 | Is my friend still going to heaven? | John 3:16 | John Ryals | 227953 | ||
First let me say that God determines who goes! Now in reference to your question, I like the scriptures in the Book of Revelation where John is sending the letters to the churches. (Revelation, Chapter 2, verses 1-7.) 1 Unto the Angel of the Church of Ephesus write; These things says He who holds the Seven Stars in His Right Hand, Who walks in the midst of the Seven Golden Candlesticks; 2 I know your works and your labour, and your patience, and how you cannot bear them which are evil: and you have tried them which say they are Apostles, and are not, and have found them liars: 3 And have borne, and have patience, and for my Name's sake have laboured, and have not fainted. 4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against you, because you have left your first love. 5 Remember therefore from where you are fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto you quickly, and remove your candlestick out of his place, except you repent. 6 But this you have, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate. 7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the Churches; To him who overcomes will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God. You notice In the first part of the letter the Angel is saying He knew their good works but in the latter part of the letter he was not so satisfied and was instucting them to return to their 'First Love." If we fall away we must repent and return to our Lord and Saviour. FYI: The 'Nicolaitans taught the doctrine of 'Balaam" and "Balaams'" time era began in (B.C. 1451). Balaam was the Son of Beor a man endowed with the gift of prophecy, (Numbers 22:5). The word "Nicolaitanes" means "laity-conquerors." They are Preachers who exploit the people instead of Spiritually developing them, which all false doctrine does. The Lord hates this, and so should we! Try to get friend to come back to "The Cross of Christ!" On a personal thought I am having a hard time believing she believes in Christ making such ludicrous claims. May God Bless you and give you strength to approach your friend and try to get her to return to Church. |

31 | In Rev 20:11-15, who are the "dead"? | Rev 20:12 | John Ryals | 227950 | ||
11 "And I saw a Great White Throne " (proclaims the final Judgement of the unredeemed, which will take place at theend of the Kingdom Age), "and Him Who sat on it (proclaims none other than God: however, we must understand that it is the Person of the Godhead, the Lord Jesus Christ [Mat. 25:31]; he is the saviour today; He will be the Judge tomorrow), "from Whose face the Earth and the Heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. 9This means a New Heaven and Earth are in the offing.) 12 "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God"(pertains to the second Resurrection, the Resurrection of Damnation [I Cor., Chpt. 15; I Thess. 4:13-18; Jn. 5:29[);"and the Books were opened: and another Book of Life: and the daed were Judged out of those things which were written in the Books, according to their works (proclaims the manner of Judgement). 13 "And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and Nell delivered up the dead which were in them (points to the fact that every unredeemed person who has ever lived will face the Great White Throne Judgement; none will be exempted): and they were Judged every man according to their works (records the fact that this Judgement is not arbitrary, but is based on absolute Justice). 14 "And death and Hell were cast into the Lake of Fire" (combined, includes the wicked of all ages). "This is the second death" (Eternal separation from God and the Lake of Fire). 15 "And whosoever was not found written in the Book of Life" (refers to the record of all the unredeemed) was cast into the Lake of Fire." (This includes every single individual who isn't Redeemed, beginning with Adam and Eve. That is, if they didn't come back to God.) |

32 | Speaking in tongues | Acts 2:4 | John Ryals | 227935 | ||
Some teach and preach that the Baptism with the Holy Spirit is an experiencing subsequent to Salvation. Some believe when one is baptized with the Holy Spirit according to Acts 2:4 that he speaks with other Tounges as the Spirit of God gives the utterance. However, while some cherish the Baptism with the Spirit, I believe we must reject the insistence of the "Jesus Only People" that the experience is necessary for Salvation. We cannot accept the view that "born of the spirit" in John 3:5 refers to the experience depicted in Matthew 3:11. The only Baptism that John could give anyone was the "Baptism unto Repentence." He states here that Jesus would Baptize "With the Holy Spirit, and with fire." There are three types of Baptisms', 'The Baptism into Christ', 'Water Baptism', and 'Baptism with the Holy Spirit. Remember Paul said: "For by grace are you Saved through Faith, and that not of yorselves: it is the Gift of God: "Not of works,lest any man should boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9.) In view of what Paul said, are the "Jesus Only" adherents Saved? They are basing their Salvation on their in Water Baptism and speaking with other Tongues; however, God cannot honor a salvation by works, only by Faith in Christ, and what Christ has done for us at the Cross. Paul also said: "That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved." "For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto Salvation" (Rom. 10:9-10). Not one time here does Paul mention Water Baptism or speaking with other Tongues, or anyhting else for that matter, only "confessing" and "believing." So, in view of all of that, we ask again the question, Are the 'Jesus Only' adherents Saved?" I believe some are and some aren't! If one's faith is in anything other than Christ and what Christ has done for us at the Cross, pure and simple, it is a belief system consisting of "works." God cannot accept that,He can only accept His Son and what He did for us at Calvary, and our Faith in that Finished Work. However, We should ever exalt with ever-increasing fervor and devotion, the Precious Name of Jesus; however, it is my believe it is heretical to apply the Name of Jesus to the Father and the Holy Spirit. Nevertheless, it is my earnest prayer that our souls will be set aflame with the true glory of the wondrous Name of the Son, the Lord Jesus christ. I would pray daily that we would recieve a fresh Revelation of the Beauty and Power of that Name, the Blessed Name, "Jesus." |

33 | Is judgement on judgement day private? | Rev 20:12 | John Ryals | 227922 | ||
The entire context is Rev 20:11-15. I don't know if this answers your question but may lead you to other references that may give you insight. Also: check out 1st Cor., Chpt. 15; 1st Thess. 4:13-18; John 5:29. | ||||||
34 | How will God judge on judgement day? | Psalm | John Ryals | 227920 | ||
Psalms 103:12 states,"As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us," This is equivalent to "blotting out our sins" Acts 3:19; Isa. 43:25; 44:22. It is impossible to bring the east and the west together; so it is impossible to bring the forgiven sinner and his forgiven sins together. This Divine fact gives to those who believe it, a peace which nothing can destroy. | ||||||
