22 | What was the name given to Jesus? | John 17:11 | wordoer | 193270 | ||
Pilgrim2eternity, He (Jesus) said to His Father, "keep them in Your Name". The name which you have given Me. Matt 1:20 But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. Matt 1:21 "She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins." The angel of the Lord told Joseph to call His name "Jesus". This is the name of the Father, "Jesus". Which He has given to His Son. The name given to Jesus, is Jesus. In the great commission, it is a directive to baptize in the name of the Father , Son, and Holy Spirit. Is it possible that this name is "Jesus"? "...that they may be one even as We are." "...and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins." wordoer |

24 | Bible passage sins of few passed to all? | 2 Sam 24:10 | wordoer | 189951 | ||
Hello oscardog, I don't know that a passage actually states it in that manner, But the principle does exist in the Holy Writ. The following is one example. 2 Sam 24:10 Now David's heart troubled him after he had numbered the people. So David said to the LORD, "I have sinned greatly in what I have done. But now, O LORD, please take away the iniquity of Your servant, for I have acted very foolishly." 11 When David arose in the morning, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying, 12 "Go and speak to David, 'Thus the LORD says, "I am offering you three things; choose for yourself one of them, which I will do to you.""' 13 So Gad came to David and told him, and said to him, "Shall seven years of famine come to you in your land? Or will you flee three months before your foes while they pursue you? Or shall there be three days' pestilence in your land? Now consider and see what answer I shall return to Him who sent me." 14 Then David said to Gad, "I am in great distress. Let us now fall into the hand of the LORD for His mercies are great, but do not let me fall into the hand of man." 15 So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the morning until the appointed time, and seventy thousand men of the people from Dan to Beersheba died. 16 When the angel stretched out his hand toward Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD relented from the calamity and said to the angel who destroyed the people, "It is enough! Now relax your hand!" And the angel of the LORD was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite. 17 Then David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel who was striking down the people, and said, "Behold, it is I who have sinned, and it is I who have done wrong; but these sheep, what have they done? Please let Your hand be against me and against my father's house." I hope this helps, wordoer |

25 | The right presidential candidate | Bible general Archive 3 | wordoer | 189809 | ||
Hello 00123, I liked Cheri’s answer, in the end we win through Him Who loved us, I say not a bad idea , It will work. If we win in the end , why not hasten the day of the Lord? It is fitting if we vote for Him for President, We already love Him for what He has done for us, If He accepts the position, I realize it is a step down for Him, because He is already King of kings, and Lord of lords, But, I think He might just do it. He loved us enough to give his life for us. Why would He not take the position? I think one or two of the posters here on the studybibleforum would vote for Him in 2008, He just needs a few more votes, won’t you write in your vote for Jesus Christ for president? Or would you not want Him to rule over you? Luke 19:27 "But these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them in my presence." Yes Lord. Ok, I say vote for Jesus Christ. You ask why, He already knows how to lead, and perform all the duties, He would make the ultimate Presider over US. As far as a Biblical perspective He has got it all, He knows the Word, He is the Word! John 1:1 www.voteforjesus.info/ Praise be to our Lord and Savior, and soon to be President, Jesus Christ, wordoer He is our Conquering King! |

26 | Israel and worship of other gods | Deut 11:16 | wordoer | 189655 | ||
Hello, Tuggy, They are an obstinant people, and not smart enough to know when they have a good thing going. Which I think is why He calls us sheep. Like in this verse in 1 Samuel 8, They had a King, Which was The Most High God, but they wanted a King like all the other nations, You can read the whole chapter.It is really dumb, even after Samuel told them how it would be under an earthly king. Also if you read in Kings and Chronicles their kings would cause them to turn away from their God, and some kings caused them to return. 1 Sam 8:5 and they said to him, "Behold, you have grown old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now appoint a king for us to judge us like all the nations." Is 1:3 "An ox knows its owner, And a donkey its master's manger, But Israel does not know, My people do not understand." wordoer |

27 | Tithe vs Debts | 2 Corinthians | wordoer | 189570 | ||
Tithe first, Trust God , He can make that 10 percent do more than the 90 percent you will have left. He says to test Him in this. Try it, it works. It all belongs to Him anyway. Don't be a God robber. Mal 3:10 "Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this," says the LORD of hosts, "if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows. If you can't find it in the New Testament , it has probably been covered sufficiently in the Old Testament. wordoer |

28 | What about hurricanes? | Bible general Archive 3 | wordoer | 160242 | ||
Hello worldchanger, Is 28:2 Behold, the Lord has a strong and mighty agent; As a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction, Like a storm of mighty overflowing waters, He has cast it down to the earth with His hand. Is 29:6 From the LORD of hosts you will be punished with thunder and earthquake and loud noise, With whirlwind and tempest and the flame of a consuming fire. whirlwind(5492a)suphah (693a); from 5486; a storm wind:--gale(1), storm(3), tempest(2), whirlwind(8), windstorms(1). tempest(5591b)searah (704b); from 5590; a tempest, storm wind:--storm(6), storm winds(1), stormy(2), tempest(2), violent(2), whirlwind(3). Jer 23:19 "Behold, the storm of the LORD has gone forth in wrath, Even a whirling tempest; It will swirl down on the head of the wicked. In the Septuagint Bible, Isaiah 29:6 (the translation of Charles Thomson) reads: "From the Lord of Hosts there will be a visitation - a hurricane and a devouring flame of fire, with thunder and an earth-quake and a mighty noise." I would submit that these scriptures could possibly be speaking of a hurricane. Could the following be speaking of "storm surge", or a "tsunami"? Is 28:2 ..."Like a storm of mighty overflowing waters",... wordoer |

29 | Covenant Marriage | James | wordoer | 159075 | ||
Hello Aliennow, Yes, there is a time when divorce is permitted, Matt 19:8 He *said to them, "Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way. Or this was not the intention from the beginning. Please type in the number 39220, in the upper right hand search box on this site, the threaded posts there should help your understanding on this verse in Matthew 5:31. It really is a confusing translation of scripture, as it seems redundant to say, "if you divorce your wife you must give her a certificate of divorce". The certificate is one of the components of the divorce, and without the certificate you could not possibly be divorced. wordoer |

30 | Marriage :Where They'll Live the 1st Yr. | Eph 5:31 | wordoer | 158138 | ||
Hello txsweet pea, This was the only scripture I could find related to your question. Deut 24:5 "When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out with the army nor be charged with any duty; he shall be free at home one year and shall give happiness to his wife whom he has taken. This sounds to me like a honeymoon. However, there may be a translation out there that might seem to suggest living with family, according to this translation the man and his newly-wed wife would be living at "home". wordoer |

31 | selling raffle tickets | Bible general Archive 3 | wordoer | 158039 | ||
Hello pbp, I had always wondered what was wrong with gambling, such as the lottery, raffles, and other games of chance. I found out that it causes covetousness. Through these games of chance it can also make people poor. It also helps people to break the Tenth Commandment. Especially if it is a desirable item to have, Like a beautiful quilt or 26 million dollars, now who wouldn't want that? Deut 7:25 "The graven images of their gods you are to burn with fire; you shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourselves, or you will be snared by it, for it is an abomination to the LORD your God. Something to consider, wordoer |

32 | Creation of man noted on 2 diff. days? | Gen 1:27 | wordoer | 157763 | ||
Hello rayanez, I guess the following statement, "For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. 2 Tim 4:3a NIV", that kalos points out disqualifies me from giving a reasonable answer as it may be seen as "not sound doctrine" by the many. My answer to your question is that Adam was an eighth day creation, other men and women were created previously. I and a few others see these accounts in Genesis 1 and 2 as a continuation of the creation account. Two questions I would like to have answered is, "Where in scripture does God have a point gone over to explain in greater detail other than the supposed Genesis 1, and 2 accounts?", and "Is there an example for us to take the position that Genesis 1, and 2 are the same accounts?". In the account in Gen.1:26,27 this man and woman were spoken into existance, and in the Gen.2:7 the man was formed out of the dust of the ground, and in Gen.2:5 states that there was not a man to till the ground. Adam was a farmer, these created in 1:27 were hunter, gatherers. Then we have in Gen 3:1, the serpent, Ok a talking snake, possibly the progeny of those John spoke to in Matthew 3:7, "you brood of vipers", Did John see and speak to snakes, or men? These other peoples are mentioned throughout scripture. wordoer |

33 | the law regarding a wedding | OT general | wordoer | 157735 | ||
Hello candice, I'm not sure exactly what you are looking for in the way of an answer; maybe you could clarify your question to be more specific. There seems to be a lot of traditional rituals that are adhered to by different cultures. In some cases the Bible says that a man took a wife, and from what I can see, a wedding can be as simple as a man and a woman giving each other the vows, in front of two witnesses. I would hazard to guess that "taking a wife" has different contexts as to the condition or situation of His people as a nation. I cannot find any hard and fast rules/laws on the wedding itself (as I understand the ceremony), other than the MAN and WOMAN must be in agreement when entering the covenant. Therefore the vows that are taken reflect the agreement of the parties. I had previously posted on marriage vows (which are given in the wedding) in post # 96145, you can enter that number in the search box in the upper right hand of the page to read that. There are laws for marriage, divorce, and other related subjects. The word "wedding", used in scripture, seems to be used in some cases, as "marriage". hope this helps, wordoer |

34 | what age does a boy become a man bibica | Bible general Archive 3 | wordoer | 157401 | ||
Hello Melvie, I am certain there is a Biblical answer to your question, and I believe this also relates to what some refer to as the "age of accountability", I would define this as an age when boys become men and therefore accountable to God for their actions. This is according to my definition, if you define it differently I would be interested in your definition. Contrary to Jewish tradition, The scripture is clear, the age when a boy becomes a man. If you look in scripture, Ex 30:14 "Everyone who is numbered, from twenty years old and over, shall give the contribution to the LORD. Num 1:3 from twenty years old and upward, whoever is able to go out to war in Israel, you and Aaron shall number them by their armies. Num 1:18 and they assembled all the congregation together on the first of the second month. Then they registered by ancestry in their families, by their fathers' households, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and upward, head by head, These are listed for every tribe, But suffice it to say; Num 1:40 Of the sons of Asher, their genealogical registration by their families, by their fathers' households, according to the number of names, from twenty years old and upward, whoever was able to go out to war, Num 26:2 "Take a census of all the congregation of the sons of Israel from twenty years old and upward, by their fathers' households, whoever is able to go out to war in Israel." This scripture may be the hardest to see an age that people would be held accountable for their actions. Num 32:11 'None of the men who came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob; for they did not follow Me fully, Ezra 3:8 Now in the second year of their coming to the house of God at Jerusalem in the second month, Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and Jeshua the son of Jozadak and the rest of their brothers the priests and the Levites, and all who came from the captivity to Jerusalem, began the work and appointed the Levites from twenty years and older to oversee the work of the house of the LORD. Some say five, seven or when they (children) understand right from wrong, This would be a good place to arbitrarily put in an age, as some see fit, such as twelve or thirteen. Deut 1:34"Then the LORD heard the sound of your words, and He was angry and took an oath, saying, Deut 1:35'Not one of these men, this evil generation, shall see the good land which I swore to give your fathers, Deut 1:36 except Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him and to his sons I will give the land on which he has set foot, because he has followed the LORD fully.' Deut 1:37"The LORD was angry with me also on your account, saying, 'Not even you shall enter there. Deut 1:38'Joshua the son of Nun, who stands before you, he shall enter there; encourage him, for he will cause Israel to inherit it. Deut 1:39'Moreover, your little ones who you said would become a prey, and your sons, who this day have no knowledge of good or evil, shall enter there, and I will give it to them and they shall possess it. 2 Tim 3:16 All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; I know there is opposition to this teaching, So please follow this standard of using scripture! Most states say eighteen or twenty one, however scripture says those numbered from twenty years and upward. In my state they are trying to hold accountable at this time an eighteen year old boy as an adult (time or age to be fully accountable for his actions) for a death that occurred when he was seventeen (the crime he committed would be considered involuntary manslaughter, a girl died in a car accident, in which he was driving). There are other aspects to this case, but I just say it just to show an age, which the state has decided they would be able to hold him fully accountable for his actions. So, it is left for you to decide, the scriptures I give you show God’s view on the subject, search the archives to see SCRIPTURE that others may show you. (emphasis mine) Children are accountable to their parents up to an age when God will hold them accountable. Even Jesus was under His parents as shown in Luke 2:51 And He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and He continued in subjection to them; and His mother treasured all these things in her heart. He could have told them “go on without me”, but He continued in subjection to them. (the scripture notes that He was 12 years old at that time). I would be interested to hear your comments on this, agreeable or not. I hope this is in line with your question, and has helped you. wordoer |

35 | Where do we go after death | Eccl 12:7 | wordoer | 157334 | ||
Hello iwatercc, If you have never been to a funeral, you can see first hand where people go when they die. It seems to be a prominent happening in scripture, that dead people go to the grave. Gen 50:5 'My father made me swear, saying, "Behold, I am about to die; in my grave which I dug for myself in the land of Canaan, there you shall bury me." Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father; then I will return.'" 1 Kin 13:31 After he had buried him, he spoke to his sons, saying, "When I die, bury me in the grave in which the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones. Here are a couple of scriptures concerning the spirit or breath that God has given, as He breathed the life into Adam. Ps 146:4 His spirit departs, he returns to the earth; In that very day his thoughts perish. Eccl 12:7 then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it. Then those who die in Christ have the resurrection to look forward to. John 11:25 Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies,... I hope this helps your understanding, wordoer |

36 | Age of accountability? | Luke 2:42 | wordoer | 156857 | ||
Hello lionheart, May I ask you, "age of accountability to, or for what?" Please explain. Maybe this is why people can not get a solid answer to this question. I think Jesus' age was mentioned for a reason in this referenced scripture, and I think it does have something to do with His accountability. I look forward to your reply, wordoer |

37 | What would change End-Times? | 2 Pet 3:12 | wordoer | 156241 | ||
Hello pejo, It won't change the outcome, because I've read the Book and we (Christians) win. I do believe that the timing would change, as it says in 2 Peter 3:12 "looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God,..." This scripture shows the timing can be changed. We have the capacity to do this thing, maybe we could try it sometime. But, I'm so busy (Burdened Under Satans Yoke) though like everyone else, with work and all (having to gather my own straw to make bricks). Where would we ever find the time to do such a thing as a nation? wordoer |

38 | tattoos | Leviticus | wordoer | 156058 | ||
Hello Laura, It is written. Lev 19:28 'You shall not make any cuts in your body for the dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the LORD. There is the scripture Mark says many will point out (in Leviticus). I myself would obey the Lord, But you have the decision to make. If I needed some outward sign, I would get a hat, shirt, or a plaque with that insignia on it, at least you wouldn't be breaking the Law, and you could take it off a lot easier. 1 John 3:4 Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness. Prov 29:9. Does the debate rage on for you? wordoer |

39 | Was Sabbath tested prior to Sinai. | OT general | wordoer | 155154 | ||
Hello swerv, Well, In addition to Makarios' answer, I see at least one right off that was tested. Gen 26:5 because Abraham obeyed Me and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes and My laws." So there it is, the Law of God in existance before Mt. Sinai. He had to have been tested, because it says he was obedient. But, It appears God kept this Sabbath day, as it is written in Genesis 2:2-3, My Bible even references Exodus 20:8-11. It has probably existed as long as God. wordoer |

40 | What Bible says on marriage of relatives | Gen 28:2 | wordoer | 154448 | ||
Hello tkt, You may read the Law in Leviticus chapter 18 to discern what relationships are forbidden. But the Bible example we have to learn from shows that it would be no closer than first cousins. I have also studied into Abrahams relation to Sarah, and I believe she was Abrahams brother Terah's daughter, which would have made her Abrahams niece. And Foxworthy joked about rednecks going to family reunions to find a mate. Well, maybe they were rednecks, and God loved them and blessed them. wordoer |
