Dear Makarios, Thank you for your response. I did misinterpret the meaning of "born into a state of sin". I believe we are in agreement. I apologize for the confusion. Maybe I shouldn't reply to posts after 10:30 pm :). Thanks DD4Truth |

27 | Did God the Father create Jesus | Bible general Archive 4 | DD4Truth | 226103 | ||
Dear Makarios, I agree with you completely that all three persons of the Trinity are equal in deity, but assume different functions within a hierarchy. That was the point I was trying to make, but I was not as eloquent as you. I still have a question as to whether or not Jesus knows the day and hour of the last day. I'll have to think on that one some more. It's hard for me to get past what is written in Matt 24:36. Thanks for your response. DD4Truth |

28 | Baptized ( water or immersed in Christ | Rom 6:3 | DD4Truth | 226102 | ||
Dear Roger, The answer is both. There is only one baptism (Ephesians 4:5). Following are a few of the verses that connect baptism with water: John 3:5, Acts8:36, Eph 5:26, 1 Pet 3:20-:21. I hope this helps. DD4Truth |

31 | Did God the Father create Jesus | Bible general Archive 4 | DD4Truth | 226060 | ||
First off let me say I am not sure of the theological implications of either position that God the Son and God the Father are complete equals now in every respect or if God the Father is the head of Christ. I'll have to admit that up front. The line of reasoning does bring a couple of questions to mind: 1) I Cor 11:3 "But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a wife is her husband, and the head of Christ is God." - At the time that God the Holy Spirit inspired Paul to write this Jesus was with the Father. 2) I Cor 15:24 - 15:28. "..... But when it says, "all things are put in subjection", it is plain that he is excepted who put all things in subjection under him. When all things are subjected to him, then the Son himself will also be subjected to him who put all things in subjection under him, that God may be all in all." 3) Matt 12:32 "And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or the age to come." - My thoughts on this are that even though Jesus and the Holy Spirit are both God, Jesus states that there is at least one difference between the two. Blasphemy on one is forgiven and blasphemy of the other is not. This is not as clear a distinction as the first two points above, but to me it says that even though Jesus and the Holy Spirit are both God, there are differences between Jesus and the Holy Spirit (both in the age Jesus spoke of and the age to come). Again, I'm not sure of the theological implications but these verses teach that God the Father is the head of Christ, God the Father put all things in subjection under Jesus except God the Father and that at the end the Son will be subjected to the Father.

Dear Doc, I have enjoyed your insight and depth of knowledge in your responses in the short time that I have been on this forum. I agree whole heartedly with the response of the triune nature of God. Passages such as Matt 3:16-:17, Matt 28:19, and II Cor 13:14 clearly teach and prove the doctrine of the three persons of the Godhead. I do not agree that the Church of Christ teaches against this doctrine. I am a member of the Church of Christ, and I have never heard anyone teach against the Trinity. We believe the bible alone as God's word and as the only source for doctrine. As noted above the bible clearly teaches that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are three separate persons. We do not have a credal statement or confession of faith that defines a theological position for every Church of Christ. Each Church is autonomous and lead by their elders, deacons, and preachers. With that being the case, some Churches of Christ may teach as you have mentioned above. If they do, there is no doubt that they are wrong and their teaching should be labeled as heretical. I hope this clarifies you post. I would be happy to answer any questions or concerns that you have. DD4Truth |

34 | where does jesus die and go visit hell? | Luke 23:43 | DD4Truth | 225970 | ||
Here are some verses that discuss what Jesus did after his death: Lk 23:43 "And he said to him, Truly, I say to you, Today you will be with me in Paradise.: Acts 2:27-2:31 "....that he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption." The portion of Hades that Jesus went to was Paradise. See Lk 16:22 - 16:31. (The verses in I Pet 3:18 - 3:22 refer to the actions of Jesus during the construction of the ark.) ....or you may be referring to Rev 1:18 "...I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades." .....here He is talking about His sovereignty over Death and Hades. |

35 | where in the Bible did Abraham, lied? | Genesis | DD4Truth | 225944 | ||
You may be thinking of Gen 12:10- 12:20 and Gen 20. He technically didn't lie by telling these men that his wife was his sister (Gen 20:12). I think most would agree that he put these men in a position that he should not have. | ||||||
36 | Isn't Paul free of sin? | Rom 7:25 | DD4Truth | 225932 | ||
I like Docs perspective. Right now Paul is free from sin. While Paul was on earth, as Beja noted, Paul stilled sinned. | ||||||

38 | Where in the new testament.... | Bible general Archive 4 | DD4Truth | 225884 | ||
Hello wordoer, Thank you for your update. I was incorrect to say that tithing is not mentioned without providing additional details. However, the spirit of my prior brief reply was to say that tithing is not mentioned in regards to our giving in the new testament. In Matt 23 and Luke 11 Jesus is rebuking the Pharisees for tithing and neglecting the weightier matters of the law. In Luke 18 the reference to tithing is in the Pharisees prayer. All of the above verses mention tithing in a negative light as a matter of pride in keeping the law. In Heb 7 the Hebrew writer is making an argument to prove that Melchizedek was greater than Abraham and Levi (or the Levitical priesthood) who received the old testament tithes. The Mal reference is an old testament reference. In regards to New Testament giving, we have: Mat 6:4 "so that your giving may be in secret..."; 2 Cor 9:7 "Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver" 2 Cor 9:6 "...whoever sows sparingly will also rep sparingly, and whoever sow bountifully will also reap bountifully."; 1 Cor 16:2 "On the first day of every week, each of you is to put something aside and store it up, as he may prosper, so that there will be no collecting when I come." ; Lk 18:24 "...how difficult it is for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!"; Mat 6:19 "Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth..." This is not a completely exhaustive list but covers the majority of the new testaments teaching on giving. In regards to the amount of our giving we are told in the new testament to give as we have prospered and to give as we have decided in our heart. I would recommend to give a tithe, but I do not read in the new testament where it a requirement as it was in The Law (Old Testament). I hope this clarifies my earlier post. |

40 | Where in the new testament.... | Bible general Archive 4 | DD4Truth | 225829 | ||
No specific mention of tithing in the New Testament. It was a requirement in the Old Testament but it is not required in the New Testament. We are commanded to give, but no specific amount is required. | ||||||
