21 | I belive this inline with mt 13-37-38 | Matt 13:24 | phruubeljiie | 65914 | ||
HOLD the phone! But when it talks in Revelations about raising the dead up to heaven, where are the souls of the dead before they enter the Holy Kingdom of God? | ||||||

Okay, you're the second person who corrected me on this; I threw in that bit about purgatory to be non-denominationally discriminant. Truth is my head's really spinning about how religion is changing from the literal translation of the bible to today's accepted versions, and the religious ed teachers I talk to about this just give some non-answer. Thanks for pointing out the passage in Luke, but I felt like since I was talking about the seed that died I had to adress death in my analogy. Chris |

23 | why butler remembered joseph? | Luke 23:42 | phruubeljiie | 69672 | ||
Logically, the butler was fearing for his life. As far as the Egyptians were concerned, you lived life to its fullest, and then you died, and when you died you either became the Jewish equivalent to a seraphim or your soul was eaten by this terrifying monster called Ammit (or Ahmit). The butler knew he wasn't pristine, so he was fearing for his life- not to mention whether he had a family to go home to, or others who loved and depended on him. Joseph gave that butler hope when the butler had no hope, and Joseph also gave the baker a chance to get right with God before he was brought before the Old Testemant equivalent of a firing squad. Frankly, I think the question is why the butler didn't remember Joseph and praise him to Pharoah immediately. | ||||||
24 | WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THE VERSE ? | John 14:1 | phruubeljiie | 69675 | ||
This is spoken directly to those who believe Jesus was a great teacher/mentor, or a great prophet, but do not believe he was God. It is also spoken to those who believe that Jesus never existed, or the Christmas-and-Easter Christians who think the Bible is full of morality stories but are hesitant to FROG (Fully Rely On God). It's spoken to us when we're alone and afraid and faced with the difficult choice to do God's will or to do our will or to do the will of someone trying to demand and control us, and it's God telling us that he loves us, always has, and always will. | ||||||
25 | god tell happen to egypt? | Acts 2:17 | phruubeljiie | 69674 | ||
Remember that in the past as well as now, some people hold special significance to dreams- almost as if they were prophetic, or a direct link to God through the subconscious. Bear with me, I know I'm sounding like a televangelist but I do have a point. See Genesis 41:25-32. God's gift in dream to Pharoah was this prediction: seven years of bounty, and that bounty would slowly be consumed by seven years of famine. After the fourteen years, the after-effects would be those of famine, not of bounty, so the sick ears of corn and the sick cows were left, but no sign of the healthy corn or cows. | ||||||
26 | Is salvation revocable? | Rom 8:1 | phruubeljiie | 77579 | ||
I don't really understand this whole concept myself. Let's say someone is saved, then goes through a time of doubt (Job, for example). Are they still saved? Also, what about the Catholics, who believe that salvation comes from baptism and confirmation? | ||||||
27 | PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS PASSAGE | Rom 8:28 | phruubeljiie | 72561 | ||
It means, in short, that there is no such thing as destiny or chance. Everything that was, is, and will be is a part of God's eternal plan in which everything that can go right, will. Anything that you may see as a disaster is what's best for you to bring you closer to God. | ||||||
28 | come out | 1 Cor 1:13 | phruubeljiie | 69679 | ||
Absolutely not! Didn't Saint Paul say, "Let there be no division among you"? One of my best friends is Hindu, and many of them are Islamic, Jewish, Hindu, and one Buddhist. Christ sent you here and gave you His love and His message not so you could parrot it back to people who already know it but so you could spread the word to people who don't, or people who don't understand it. If you have a very good friend who isn't Christian, don't you want to give them a chance to get to know the guy who died for them? I think your verse means that you shouldn't act like those who believe there is no God, no Heaven, no Hell, etc. Be seperate spiritually, not physically. If you learn to alienate people on Earth, you don't want to risk that transferring to Heaven. | ||||||
29 | come out | 1 Cor 1:13 | phruubeljiie | 70533 | ||
Sorry for not supplying this before, Rextar, and for not answering in a while- internet's been down at my place for the past week or so. Broadband's more hassle than it's worth. Anyways, I quoted 1 Corinthians 1:10, "I urge you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree in what you say, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and in the same purpose." | ||||||
30 | What's this I | Rev 4:1 | phruubeljiie | 79556 | ||
A lot of people believe that this alludes to the Rapture theory, but I've been reading a lot of the Prophets' work (Isaiah, Daniel, Ezekiel and Revelations) and I see nothing saying that God's church will be sent up to Heaven before the Tribulation. Can someone please site and clarify? Also, why a WAR trumpet? | ||||||
