241 | Where does Cain's wife come from? | OT general | humbledbyhisgrace | 195677 | ||
No! It absolutely it does not say what you have said! There is no 8 day creation taught in scripture. Simply read Genesis chapters 1 and 2. Also, see Genesis 4:1 and you will see that God's word teaches that Adam is the father of Cain. These teachings of 8th day creationist are so ridiculous I'm left wondering if your objective is not to intentionally deceive and mislead. Steve |

miller521, I suspected as much :-) Actually, not a great start but a typical start which appears to be rooted in the false teachings spread by the prosperity teachers of the day! These scriptures you reference in NO way back up the false teaching of "seed-faith"! God is NOT in the business of selling His favor upon His people! Case in point, read the story of Naaman in 2 Kings 5. Pay close attention to the man of God (Elisha) and how not only did he not receive the payment offered to him, but neither did he present himself to Naaman to receive any glory for what God was going to do! Also, note how confused Naaman was. Like the "seed-faith" believers of today thinking God is some VENDOR in the sky selling His favor for money. And don't over look what happens to the one (Gehazi) who takes the payment. The greed of the heart is what makes the false teachers of "seed-faith" (i.e. prosperity teachings) so successful! I don't in any way want to dismiss and/or discourage you in your giving and honoring of God to share what He has blessed you with. I do want to encourage you to be careful of falling into the trap of satan and his workers pushing the unbiblical "seed-faith" teachings you see so much of today. Consider carefully their teachings. They don't even come close to being biblical. Neither does the scriptures you reference come close to validating the "seed-faith" teaching. Steve |

miller521, Many people believe in many things! Believing in something is not the measure of truth. Would you care to share with the forum from scripture why you believe in "seed-faith"? Steve |

Doc, I'm surprised the WOF bunch hasn't twisted the page numbers in their bibles to trick others into fattening their pockets! Ooops, you don't think I just gave them there next great idea do you? :-( Steve |

248 | Why is Enoch not at the Trasnfiguration? | Bible general Archive 3 | humbledbyhisgrace | 192861 | ||
Your welcome Sister! And don't get discouraged. Before you know it, it will all be clear as mud :-) I've been there myself so I can relate. By the way, the best advise I can give you on how the forum web site works is to keep in mind there is no edit option so once it's posted, well there is no taking it back :-( May God bless you too!

Hi Grace... J-man is the one who ask the question :-) You responded to me. Just letting you know so if he doesn't read your post he may not see your answer. More then likely he will though so it's probably no big deal :-) I may have confused things by referring to him as J-man instead of his screen name. Sorry about that but the truth is, I don't feel comfortable calling him by the chosen screen name. Don't mean anything by that by the way it's just me :-) Thanks for your post! Steve |

250 | "The Great Commission" ? | Col 1:23 | humbledbyhisgrace | 192823 | ||
Greetings Doc! There is some misguided folks in Simpsonville, SC who claim to be Baptist who teach this same thing. Here is portion of their "About Us" statement. The first section is titled "Baptist" and get a load of their first sentence in their statement. Baptist We are Baptists, like John the Baptist, our Lord, His apostles, and many martyrs. Wow! I never knew the Lord and his apostles had a denomination. Go figure! Besides that, check this out... KJV Bible We are Bible Christians. Without Scripture, we cannot know Jesus Christ. God inspired and preserved His words perfectly. Each is vital to truth. Satan attacked God’s words in Eden, and he attacks them today with many false versions and proud skeptical attitudes. (Proof: Psalm 12:6-7; 119:128; Pro 8:8-9; II Tim 3:16-17; II Pet 1:16-21). Note the slick way they promote the KJV as the Bible, Scripture, the only way to know Jesus, God's inspired and preserved words etc... and exclude other translations as false versions of God's word. Let's face it Doc, as sinners we are disgusting. Every last one of us! If it can be twisted mankind has spared no effort to do so. How humbling it is to know God even gives us a second thought! You see stuff like this and it really reflects on the sinfulness of mankind and how absolutely desperate we are for a saviour. Praise God we have such a wonderful Saviour! A Lord worthy of all glory and praise! Were would we be if not for the Love of God and the atoning work of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ? How blessed are we that He loves us? Imagine, us, even when we were dead in our transgressions! Thank you Jesus!!! Steve |

251 | "The Great Commission" ? | Col 1:23 | humbledbyhisgrace | 192817 | ||
Greetings Derowr! Welcome to the Study Bible Forum! What might the mystery of Christ be and why would Paul seek the brethren to pray that God would open a door for the word so he could speak the mystery of Christ? If the job had already been completed who was Paul going to speak the Mystery of Christ to and why would he need to? Colossians 4:3 (NASB) praying at the same time for us as well, that God will open up to us a door for the word, so that we may speak forth the mystery of Christ, for which I have also been imprisoned Steve PS. I hope you are here to seek and share the truth and when confronted with the truth in scripture you are willing to change your views to align with scripture. After all, you don't want to "war against Truth" and label yourself a heretic :-) |

252 | If I commit suicide, can I go to heaven? | Job | humbledbyhisgrace | 192591 | ||
Greetings Larry! Okay! I have to ask :-) You said "If I believe..." Do you believe Larry? And do you confess Jesus as Lord? By the way, I see there is quite a discussion started over this. Let me encourage you to stay involved and follow the discussion but at the same time let me encourage you not to let it discourage you :-) What you have said is actually right on target. Not because I say so nor because anyone else says so but because God Himself says so. We can look at His word (Romans 10:9-10) and see that what you have said is basically the same thing Paul wrote regarding the message of faith he was proclaiming. You need only look back at the contrast in verses 5 and 6 and what is stated in Romans 10:9-10 to see some of what you have been told in response to your post is a far cry from what God Himself has said. What is most important is what God's word says and too it is very important that you actually believe in your heart! It's all about faith Larry! Don't let the labels of "easy grace" and "false doctrine" disturb you. Stick with what God's word actually says! It's hardly false doctrine if God Himself said it :-) It only gets to be false doctrine when man (or woman) twist it! By the way Larry, salvation is a gift from God as you hopefully are aware of already. Salvation is not a life style and you don't have to work for it nor could you obtain it through your works. These are teachings of man not scripture. Scripture is so clear on this matter! For example, look back at Romans 10:5-10 and Ephesians 2:1-10. God Bless, Steve |

Greetings Larry! Welcome to the Study Bible Forum! Like others, I too am very concerned about you. Let me say up front it would be much better for you if you would find a counselor who is experienced with these things as well as biblical counseling. They are much better equipped to help you then we are on this forum. Talk with a local pastor and he should be able to help you find someone trustworthy to help you. There are many on this forum who can help you with seeking the Lord through His word. So this is a good place to come for that! As a matter of fact, before you make a decision on anything else, I would encourage you to seek the answers to a couple of very important matters first! One, are you really saved? Two, if you are saved, why did God not take you home once you were saved? If you would, tell us in your own words what it takes for someone to go to heaven. Let's make sure you understand what God's word says about this first okay? It's important that you understand what God says about this and not just take the words or opinion of man on this matter!

255 | Abstaining from things strangled, blood? | Acts 15:20 | humbledbyhisgrace | 192133 | ||
WOS, Just so happens I was preparing for a Sunday School lesson a few weeks ago and the lesson was in Acts. Although it did not cover this passage of scripture I was reading through several chapters and came across this passage. One of the commentaries I looked at pointed to the Noahic Covenant (Genesis 9) (?) I'm no expert on the scriptures and know less about the OT then the NT but are we not still under the Noahic covenant? Also, I've been trying to research the Noahic Covenant and understand it better and based on what I have found so far I'm not even sure what verses this would include. I've seen it listed as Genesis 9 and also Genesis 8:20—9:17. Genesis 9:4 is what the commentary was pointing to regarding Acts 15:20 that got me interested in your post. I expect to learn something from this post as I'm sure the more learned among us will help me on this but I found the post interesting as I was just recently looking at it so I jumped feet first just to get these thoughts / questions out there :-) If not for His grace, could I stand at all?

256 | Would his heart not be humbled? | Romans | humbledbyhisgrace | 192125 | ||
Hi Val, Thanks for responding! I agree that what James says in the last part of the verse "knowing that as such we will incur a stricter judgment" applies to all who teach the word regardless if they are called to teach or not but it would seem to me the first part of the verse gives us a good indication of who he was not speaking to :-) At least it seems this way to me! Anyway, thanks for responding. God Bless, Steve |

257 | Would his heart not be humbled? | Romans | humbledbyhisgrace | 192112 | ||
Val, Your response does not answer the question. It appears as if you are making a statement instead. Let me try again and see if this will help. My new question to you is, do you think James is speaking to men called of God to teach his word in James 3:1? My thoughts on this is no! The reason I say no is considering the fact it is God who calls and God who gifts, certainly James would not be encouraging those called of God and gifted to teach to go against the will of God (i.e. think twice about using your gift to teach because you "will incur a stricter judgment."). So, when James says "Let not many of you become teachers" and follows this with a warning of the "stricter judgment" for teachers it does not stand to reason he would be speaking to those called by God and gifted to teach. Your thoughts? Steve |

258 | Would his heart not be humbled? | Romans | humbledbyhisgrace | 192076 | ||
Greetings Val! Thanks for responding! By the way, you used an interesting scripture to respond with. I'm not sure what you meant by this scripture in regards to the questions. Notice I started the questions off with "If one is called to teach the word of God" By this, I mean called of God. God has gifted the person to teach His word. Considering this, do you think the scripture you offered applies to the questions? If so, how? By the way, I do love the fact you use much scripture in your post so don't be discourage by my questions. Some times the intent or meaning of what you are trying to say with scripture does not always come across without your thoughts to go with it. So I'm left a bit confused on the point you are trying to get across with the scripture you used and I don't want to assume :-) Thanks, Steve |
