22 | Can you help me find a verse? | Job | Brian#9 | 185375 | ||
Good Evening, R Foster8873 Welcome to the Forum, Would you be referring to the first chapter of Job? Where God permitted Satan to tempt Job. In His Hand, Brian |

23 | Job 1:6, Is Satan also a son of God? | Job 1:6 | Brian#9 | 185737 | ||
Good morning Aminat, As you have NASB here how about; Job 1:6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came among them. ESV The angels are call the 'sons of God' due to their 'relationship' to God the Father in this verse. As Satan once was but at this time is not. This is the reason even thou he is among them. He is separate from them in the verse. You might also take a look at John 6:70 May the Lord Bless your study, Brian |

24 | What specifice details are there...? | Ps 89:12 | Brian#9 | 179321 | ||
Convict, The verse signifies that GOD has power over all parts of the world. As east and west has no begining or end. Therefore the use of Tabor west of Jerusalem, and Hermon to the east of Jordan. In HIS Hand, Brian |

25 | heb 1:7 quote of ps 104:4 | Ps 104:4 | Brian#9 | 179778 | ||
God's day Grace, A quote from Keil and Delitzsch Commentary on the Old Testament may help. "It may with equal right at least be interpreted: Who makes His messengers out of the winds,His servants out of the flaming or consuming fire. And this may affrim either that God makes use of wind and fire for special missions, or that He gives wind and fire to His angels for the purpose of His operations in the world which are effected through their agency, as the materials of their outward manifestation, and as it were of their self-embodiment," In HIS Hand, Brian |

26 | Heb 1:7 licentious use of Ps 104:4? | Ps 104:4 | Brian#9 | 179808 | ||
Good Evening Grace, The apostle is showing that the angels serve God in a ministerial capacity. They obey His Will as the winds and the lightings do. Rank and office of spirit, while the Son is Lord of all. The quotation is made from Ps. 104:4. Barnes Notes: "The passage "might" be translated, "Who maketh His angels winds, and His ministers a flame of fire; "that is "who makes His angels like the winds,or as swift as the winds, and His ministers as rapid, as terrible, and as resistless as the lighting." The use of Ps. 104:4 is to show the Son's position greater than angels. The apostle is addressing a group of people that would know the psalm very well. The wind (spirits) like nature of the cherubin, the burning( flame of fire ) devotion of the seraphin,outward manifestations of angelic servants. 1 John 1:9 and 1 John 1:7B, Brian |

27 | Are we something before we were somethin | Is 43:7 | Brian#9 | 187616 | ||
Both Doc and Hank have voiced their position about Watchman Nee and Witness Lee. I have both listed on my knucklehead list under MYSTICISM. Lee has his own version of the New Testament. Therefore I am in total agreement with both Doc and Hank. Personally I see pollution of the Word by mysticism as part of the beginnings of the "end time one world church." In His Hand, Brian |

29 | No worries, just god | Matt 6:34 | Brian#9 | 176424 | ||
Jason, Brian here. I can only tell you what works for me. I do not do it by my abilities. I keep "self" out of the picture. ME, MYSELF, AND I is not my focus. CHRIST is and what HE wants. HE is LORD and as LORD, HE deserves all of my focus. Reading and studying the WORD hours every day. Not only helps me stay focused on HIM. It increases my faith,gives me peace that I do not understand.Gives me the right verses when I need them. Useing 1 John 1:9 and 1 John 1:7b all day long to enable me to have a one to one relationship with the FATHER through CHRIST. Praying HIS WORD back to HIM has been blessing me, again beyond my understanding. The use of that verse and a half enables GOD the HOLY SPIRIT to do the teaching when studying the WORD. As Jabez prayed, 1/4 of his prayer, keep evil away from me. Remember the sparrows and the lilies, are you not worth more? May this help, the key is to keep yourself in a one to one relationship with CHRIST. Sinless so GOD can hear you. Brian#9, |

BradK, Sir I will answer your questions, the best I know how. Unconfessed sin, GOD dose not hear you Psalm 66:18. What is the basis of our relationship with HIM? To answer your question would require explaining our position in relation to GOD's Attributes. Gordon R. Lewis put it this way; "GOD is a invisible,personal,and living Spirit. Distinguished from all other spirits by several kinds of attributes; metaphysically GOD is self-existent,eternal,and unchanging; intellectually GOD is omniscient,faithful, and wise; ethically GOD is just,merciful,and loving; emotionally GOD detests evil,is longsuffering,and is compassionate; existentially GOD is free,authentic,and omnipotent; relationally GOD is transcendent in being,immanent universally in providential activity,and immanent with his people in redemptive activity. Our relationship is based on who GOD is. Is it fear? No,but fear is part of the relationship;Deu. 10:12-13,Matt.10:28,Job 28:28, 2Cor 7:1 Heb 12:28-29,and Proverbs 1:7 Is it performance? GOD's Performance yes! My performance no, but it is part of the relationship. To be evalulated at the Judgement Seat of CHRIST; 2 Corinthians 5:10,Ecclesiastes 12:14 Is it Love? Yes and no. No if by itself, YES if with all of the rest of GOD's Attributes. The use of 1 John 1:9 and 1 John 1:7b First read 1 John 1:5-2:2: HE is Light, sin is darkness,they cannot exist in the same place.Just like GOD is Perfect,and cannot have a relationship with that which is imperfect. But because CHRIST is the propitiation for our sins HE can(if). If we confess our sins,(Ps.32:5,Proverbs 28:13)HE is faithful and just to forgive us our sins,(Romans 3:24-26) and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.(Ps.51:2) and the blood of JESUS CHRIST his SON cleanseth us from all sin.(1 Corinthians 6:11) I do the first part,HE dose the second and third part,and I claim the promise in the fourth part. I do this every time GOD the HOLY SPIRIT convicts me of sin in my life.Also when I study the WORD. This enables me to have fellowship with the LIGHT. The more I stay in the LIGHT,more of the GRACE AND BLESSINGS I recieve. Yes , I am called to be in fellowship with CHRIST.(1 Cor.1:9,John 15:4) Again 1 John 1:9 and 1 John 1:7b is needed to have that fellowship with the Perfect SON. I am a sinner,I am human, Brian#9 |

31 | Why 70 AD. and why predictions? | Matt 16:28 | Brian#9 | 183746 | ||
Hello Coper, Following this post has raised some questions. Would you please answer them so I will be able to understand better? Why 70 AD? The temple was not the earthly dwelling place of God. We the believers are from Pentecost on, no need for one made of stone. The priesthood-Jesus Christ is our high priest and advocate at the Fathers right hand. The sacrifices- Jesus paid that at the cross. The veil was torn from the top to the bottom at His death. All of these happen before 70 AD. You seem to view Matt 16:24 as a prediction that Jesus did know when He was coming back. What about Matt. 24:36, Mark 13:32,( only the Father knows ). As John was the only one that was alive in 70 AD. which would mean that he alone would have seen the Coming. How do you explain 'some'? Matt. 24:34 No predictions, He did not know. Would not generations be defined as progeny rather than a time frame? In the Quest of Truth, Brian |

32 | Why 70 A.D. and why predictions | Matt 16:28 | Brian#9 | 183837 | ||
Hello Tom, I will ask you the same questions. Why 70 A.D.? Matt. 16:28; explain 'some'. In 70 A.D. John was the only one alive. Then His Coming in 70 A.D. would be contradicting Jesus. Matt 24:34; 'generation' as a period of time or time frame thereby saying Jesus was predicting His Coming. Only the Father knows as you pointed out.Jesus did not and could not reveal any more than what the Father warranted Him to reveal.(John 17:8, John 15:15, John 8:26) Jesus was under the authority of the Father.(John 12:48, John 12:50, John 5:30, John 5:19, John 8:28, John 14:10, John 15:10, John 14:24, John 17:14) Christ was the Mediator of the Father's Will. Remember Acts 1:7 and Mark 13:33. To reveal more would be a sin, right? If Jesus came back as King of kings, and Lord of lords In 70 A.D. did the MT. of Olive split in half? (Zech. 14:4) Did everybody in the world see Him? (Matt. 24:30) What about the sun, moon, stars , and the powers of heaven shaken? (Matt. 24:29) As we do not know when Jesus is to return are we not suppose to be in readiness, watchfulness, prayerfulness with our hearts on things above (Luke 12:34) and not things of the world (Matt. 6:24-33). It has not been two days since Jesus was here. ( 2 Peter 3:8) In Quest of Truth, Brian |

33 | 70A.D. or not? | Matt 16:28 | Brian#9 | 183889 | ||
Hello Tom, How important is it that Jesus came back in 70A.D. or not? Anything my Lord and Savior dose is important to me. And if He did not why are they teaching it? Quote " I believe the disciples hearing Jesus say to them,"34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled." could have no other understanding than that their generation - them and others living at that time - were the ones meant, and that after all signs detailed from verse 4-33 were fulfilled, then would be His Coming." Tom do you believe Jesus came back in 70A.D.yes or no? "I agree He couldn't reveal more than the Father would allow and to do so would be a sin.Moreover, to say He didn't know if He did know would also be a sin." We are in total agreement hear. Do you believe that Matt. 24:34 is part of the proof that Jesus came back in 70A.D.? Still looking for Truth, Brian P.S. God's days ,He is the only one that counts. |

34 | 70A.D. or not? | Matt 16:28 | Brian#9 | 183943 | ||
Hello Tom, You are not the only one that is benefiting from this post. This is a two way street. Questions to be asked about the time from the Cross to 70A.D. and until now. Matt. 24:14; "in ALL the world," "unto ALL nations," (heathen) did this happen? Matt. 24:15; did this happen? Matt.24:21; has this happen? Matt. 24:22; tribulation so great that no 'flesh'(man) saved, the days are shortened so the 'elect'(remnant)would be? Matt. 24:27; was His Coming as noticeable as this? Matt. 24:29; did this happen? Matt. 24:30 did the tribes (Israelites) mourn at the sight of Jesus Coming with Power and great Glory? Matt. 24:31; did a trumpet sound and all the 'elect' [ NT:1588 eklektos, eklektee, eklekton (eklegoo), (from Thayer's Greek Lexicon)(without the genitive Theou), Matt. 24:22 (with the addition of tou Christou, as the genitive possessor), Matt. 24:31 ] come from four winds, and from one of heaven to the other? Tom, verse 14; (not yet - to possible) today. As for verses 15,21,22,27,29,30 and 31 not yet, but getting close? Sorry about the 'hear' and not 'here' in my last post. You and I both agree that Jesus did not know when the Father was to have Him return. How could He predict an alleged time frame?( generation - being 30-40 years or whatever ) He did know that a remnant would be saved.(Deu. 28:13) He did know that He could come at any time. (Luke 12:40, 2 Peter 3:10, 1 Thess. 5:2, Rev. 16:15) If He knew that He was Coming back during that time frame, why did He teach His imminent return? Is not the primary definition of generation (genea) race, kind, family, stock, and breed? Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems that the difference between the primary and secondary meaning of a word, and our English is the root of our differences. Is this true? In the Quest of Truth, Brian |

Paul Sir: Would you please explain your paragraph of post 179246. "This is where legalism and orthodoxy separates itself from the Spirit. We have to rethink the meaning of 'sin' and 'salvation' in the ultimate plan of God. Was not everything He made good? What we call 'evil' might be part of His creative plan and purpose. What we call 'sin' may have been designed. Do we continue to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil?" Please break it down, and explain it with Bible references. Sir, on post 179491 I have the same question as BradK and Hank. In light of 'all' of GOD's Attributes , help this pea-brain human understand what you mean in both posts. 1 John 1:9 and 1 John 1:7b, Brian |

40 | Is this speaking of Christ or believers? | John 1:13 | Brian#9 | 188341 | ||
George sir; Verse 13 speaks of the sonship of verse 12. Jamieson, Fausset and Brown say it better than I can. Which were born, [egenneetheesan ]. Observe this word "born," or begotten. It was not a name only, a dignity only, which Christ conferred on them: it was a new birth, it was a change of nature-the soul being made conscious, in virtue of it, of the vital capacities, perceptions, and emotions a 'child of God' to which before it was a total stranger. But now for the Source and Author of that new birth- both negatively and positively. Not of blood- not of 'superior human descent' as we judge the meaning to be, Nor of the will of the flesh- not of 'human generation' at all, Nor of the will of man- not of man in any ways in which his will brings anything about. By this elaborate, three-fold denial of human and earthly source of this sonship, how emphatic dose the following declaration of its real source become! But of God. A sonship strictly divine then, in its source this was which Christ conferred on as many as received Him. Right royal gift which whoever confers must be absolutely divine. For who would not worship Him who can bring him into the family and evoke within him the life, of the children of God? Now comes the great climax, to introduce and raise us to the altitude of which the foregoing thirteen verses were penned. Barnes Notes brings out 6 points; 1] that if man are saved they must be born again. 2] that their salvation is not the result of their birth,or of any honorable or pious parentage. 3] that the children of the rich and the noble, as well as of the poor, must be born of God if they will be saved. 4] that the children of pious parents must be born again; or they cannot be saved. None will go to heaven simply because their "parents" are Christians. 5] that this work is the work of God, and "no man" can do it for us. 6] that we should forsake all human dependence, cast off all confidence in the flesh, and go at once to the throne of Grace, and beseech of God to adopt us into His family and save our souls from death. In His Hand, Brian |
