21 | Covenant of Salt | Not Specified | skccab | 195812 | ||
Shalom y'all again, I know it seems like I'm all over the place but I'm not really. I'm doing a study in Matthew chapter 5. My question now is where is the original covenant of salt found? Mt. 5:13 takes me to 2 Chron. 13:5 and that takes me to Num. 18:19 where the covenant of salt is mentioned as having been made. But all other references stay in the Gospels and Apostolic Writings (Num. 18:19 takes me back forward to 2 Chron 13:5). Anyone know? :-) Cheri |

22 | Pitt Minion format? | Not Specified | skccab | 195975 | ||
Hi all, This is a question about Bibles proper. I am wishing to purchase a Cambridge Bible for my brother (with income tax return). (If there are better Bibles out there, let me know.) I've been to Cambridge website and they have a large variety to choose from - but I cannot find out what "Pitt Minion" is. I've googled it and can't find what it is other than some kind of format. Does anyone know if it's a good format, what makes it different from Cambridge's other (regular, I guess) format? Thanks for the help. It's a very special brother I'm wanting this for - so it's got to be a very special (for the rest of his life) Bible :-) Cheri |

23 | Pillars of Coud and Fire | Not Specified | skccab | 196809 | ||
Shalom y'all, I have been reading Numbers and am at Num. 14:13-14, and I got to wondering about the pillars of cloud and fire I can't recall reading the answer anywhere. In this verse Moses says that the Egyptians have heard how God walks among the children of Israel and about the pillars of cloud and fire. What I'm wondering is this...During the years in the wilderness, was that cloud visible to others? Caravans of other travellers passing by at a distance, would they have been able to see the cloud? especially the pillar of fire by night, would that have been noticeable to them? Cheri |

24 | Balaam and Balak | Not Specified | skccab | 196833 | ||
Shalom again, y'all, I'm at a loss again and missing something. I've just finished the Balaam/Balak chapters in Numbers (22-24). I'm using the NKJV and I don't see where Balaam told Balak how to overcome Israel. Does he show up again later, did I misunderstand something he said in Chs. 23 and 24, or like a nimnull do I have him mixed up with some other prophet? (I was thinking he was the prophet who fell from God's favor because he advised the enemy to get Israel to intermarry and worship the enemy's gods? And that happens in Ch. 25 but I don't see Balaam's name anymore in the next few chapters.) Help? :-) Cheri |

26 | Trouble with the "back button"? | Not Specified | skccab | 197353 | ||
Shalom y'all I was just wondering if anyone else is having trouble going back and correcting their posts? I hit the back button and a clean question or note box comes up. Twice this has happened, that I haven't been able to edit. Cheri |

28 | Perfected bodies | Not Specified | skccab | 198840 | ||
Shalom y'all, I've just finished reading the end of Isaiah and a thought occurred to me that has never entered my mind before, so I thought I'd run by you folks. I know that we, as believers are promised healing (though not necessarily here in this life). I also believe that with that healing we will have perfected bodies (at the resurrection and in the world to come). My question is this: will unbelievers have "fixed" bodies to take into their judgment? Or will they go into eternity as they were when they died, toothless, blind, deaf, one armed or one legged, paraplegic, etc.? I can't think of any scripture that focuses on that aspect concerning unbelievers. Does anyone else know? My thinking is that they will not receive perfected bodies (since that is a part of the work of the Cross), but I was just wondering.... Thanks :-) Cheri |

29 | Denomiations | Not Specified | skccab | 199066 | ||
Shalom y'all, I was wondering if someone could give me briefly, what the differences are between all the different major denominations: Baptist, Methodist, Lutheran, Presbyterian, Mennonite, Adventists, Church of God, Church of Christ, etc. Or maybe someone knows of a website that maybe compares them? Thanks in advance Cheri |

30 | Dogs in eternity? | Not Specified | skccab | 199189 | ||
Shalom y'all, I had had a question a little bit different than the one I'm posing now, this one came up as I was looking up my references, so I'll get to that question later. This one that just popped up is from Rev. 22:14-15. It sounds like, in these 2 verses, that we're at the end of the age and the beginning of eternity? If so, who or what then are the dogs, sorcerers, and sexually immoral, murderers, idolaters, etc. - I thought they had all, by this time. been sent to their judgment? These 2 verses (in my Bible, NKJV) are one sentence, speaking of inside the city and outside the city simultaneously? I'm confused. Thanks much Cheri |

31 | Tithing, Giving, Itemizing | Not Specified | skccab | 199780 | ||
Shalom y'all, This question is prompted by another's post about tithing non-cash items (and an extremely generous gift, I might add). I had this question actually prior to her posting though. I'm getting ready to bless my congregation with a needed item, and I'm wondering how everyone reconciles tithing - cash or non-cash - with claiming these on tax returns? The deductions obviously are not biblical - so does claiming them detract from the gift or not? I've always thought that if you give something you just give it and that's the end of it. I've never done anything like this before so I'm just wondering. By what or who's lead are we following in doing this (deducting that is)? Cheri |

32 | Differences in the listing of the Tribes | Not Specified | skccab | 200999 | ||
Shalom y'all, This is a question about "end times" and reconciling some differences in the 12 Tribes. In Gen. 48 we have a listing of the 12 sons of Jacob with Joseph effectively being replaced by his 2 sons, this gives us 13 tribes, so Levi is dropped as an inheritor of a portion of Canaan becoming the ransom for the firstborn dedicated to God, that gives us 12 again. I know, this is not news. But in Rev. 7 where we have the 12 Tribes where the 144,000 sealed come from we no longer see Ephraim and Dan but we do see Joseph and Levi. I don't have a lot of trouble figuring out the return of Levi, and not a whole lot of trouble with the disappearance of Ephraim - but I am wondering about the missing Dan and why Joseph was brought back in (because Manasseh is still among the names). Any help out there? Still learning Cheri |

33 | Exodus 23:19, last part mostly | Not Specified | skccab | 201284 | ||
Shalom y'all It's me again :-) I've read through the Bible 4 times in the last 2 years and each time I come to this passage, it totally throws me. I was wondering if anyone has heard any teachings on it, that maybe it means something more than just what the words are saying. The passage is Exod. 23:19b. Normally, I don't go searching for "hidden" or "deeper" meanings but this verse is just ODD. God is talking about His feasts in all the verses above and even in the beginning of this particular verse and in the verses afterward He's promising the conquest of the land - this command just seems to be stuck in a place that is very odd. It appears to be totally off the wall - and I know that our God is not a God of confusion so what am I missing here? Still learning Cheri |

34 | Just passing along a praise and thank yo | Not Specified | skccab | 201374 | ||
Shalom y'all, I just wanted to give everyone who has been praying with me about the Guatamala adoption situation an update - the call came. Pray now that there will be no more snags and a little family of 3 finds its way home soon. Thank you Cheri |

35 | Cloud and Smoke | Not Specified | skccab | 201903 | ||
Shalom y'all, I'm reading Isaiah right now and happened on 6:4. Is the smoke that filled the temple equated with the cloud that filled the wilderness tabernacle, the glory of God? or is it something else? Thanks Cheri |

36 | Prayers answered | Not Specified | skccab | 201941 | ||
Shalom y'all, Just another update: The little boy from Guatamala arrived at his Akron OH home around 4am Saturday morning. On behalf of his happy parents I thank each and every one of you for your prayerful support. Our God is good God, isn't He? Cheri |

37 | Outside the camp, there's a place clean? | Not Specified | skccab | 202007 | ||
shalom y'all, I may be asking prematurely but I just read a verse that is somewhat confusing. Num. 19:9 states to take the ashes outside the camp "to a place that is clean." So far in my studies, up to this point, it appears that ALL of the area outside of the camp was considered unclean. Any ideas? Thanks Cheri |
||||||
38 | Researching a questionable verse | Not Specified | skccab | 202270 | ||
Shalom y'all, If you hear that a verse was added by translators at a later date, how would I go about checking this out? Such as, is it true, if so, when was it added? I've checked the 2 bibles that I own that would likely have the addition, 1 does, 1 does not, and several on e-sword have it included, and several don't. I'm at a loss as to where to even begin to research this. Thanks for any help Cheri |
||||||
39 | Sin unto death | Not Specified | skccab | 202274 | ||
Shalom y'all again, This question is probably a really dumb question, and the answer is most likely right under my nose and I'm missing it, but here goes: Scripture first: 1Jn 5:15 And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him. 1Jn 5:16 If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and he shall give him life for them that sin not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it. 1Jn 5:17 All unrighteousness is sin: and there is a sin not unto death. WHAT is the sin unto death? I know that one obviously is not accepting Messiah as Lord and Savior but that can't be what John's talking about because we're told in no uncertain terms to pray for unbelievers. From the wording, it appears that it is not a secret sin, something only done behind closed doors, it's something one could see the brother doing out in the open. What is it?? Thanks (feeling kinda silly I don't know this) :-) Cheri |
||||||
40 | Ezekiel's Temple | Not Specified | skccab | 203085 | ||
Shalom y'all, I hope you are all having a glorious, wonderful, fun day (while remembering all those who have lost their lives, and those yet serving to make it all possible). I know we let scripture interpret scripture, but here I would just like people's understanding. Ezekiel Temple chapters, chapters 40-47, is this a literal temple, is it in heaven, it is in the millenium, is it in the new earth, it is just allegory, is it a metaphor? Thanks in advance for sharing. :-) Cheri |
