21 | Parts of Burnt Offering and Mark 12v30? | Hebrews | dwilliamson | 217514 | ||
Lionheart Thanks for your time brother. Specifically what I was interested in was the correlation between the parts of the burnt offering (head, fat, inwards, legs (AV)) and the quotation given from Mark 12v30. Note that the head links with the "mind", the legs with the "strength", the inwards with the "heart", the fat with the "soul". So, as typified in the burnt offering of old, when the Lord was upon earth He was completely devoted to the Father in relation to His intellect, His physical strength, His inward affection, His emotions. They were all on the altar - bringing a sweet savour of rest and delight to His Father. The fulfilment of this is when he gave Himself for us as an "offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour" (Ephesians 5v2) at the Cross. Just wondered if anyone else had any further thought to expand upon this. In Him David |

22 | Are there different judgments? | Bible general Archive 4 | dwilliamson | 217342 | ||
Thanks CDBJ, I appreciate that. So, do you believe the order in which these judgments take place is as follows: 1. 1Cor3. When the Lord returns to the air to receive his church/bride to Himself (1 Thess 4v13-18, 1 Co 15v51-58). At this time, or shortly after will be the Judgement seat of Christ where the works/attitudes of Christians will be judged and their rewards will be determined. This will precede the Tribulation period. 2. Matt 25. This judgement will take place after the tribulation period and before the setting up of the earthly Kingdom for the millenium. What will here be decisive will be how, during the tribulation period, the various nations have dealt with the Lords earthly people (the Jews). Their attitude to the Jew in that day will reveal whether they have faith or not! 3. Rev 20. This is after the millenium when all that will die will have died. Thus the "dead small and great stand before God". This refers to those who are not saved only. Very solemn. "O awful day, who would not be, Sheltered O Lamb of God in Thee." |

23 | What is love? | Matt 22:37 | dwilliamson | 217289 | ||
I think its important to note that love as urged often upon us in the Bible is much more than a feeling as has been stated by MJH. When we read that "God so loved the world..." it is not merely stating that He has a feeling of kindness towards the world, though this be true! The love in question has its root not in the emotions but in the will and therefore, even though at times we might dislike what a person does and is, we can still choose to love that person! Our "love" towards God is a direct response to His love for us and is the result of us choosing to love Him, which will be evident in our obedience to His word. Of course the greatest example of this "love" was the Lord Jesus Himself. dwilliamson |
