261 | salvation | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 198433 | ||
Hi Sq, Where does the person of Jesus Christ fit into all that you have mentioned? Your first answer was that you were saved and you felt it. The problem is the Bible doesn’t back up what you say, were feelings; the Bible deals with facts and the feeling can’t be trusted! The process for forgiveness doesn’t include asking God to forgive you; it’s confession of your sins! God has already said He will forgive you so don’t insult Him by asking Him if He will, just do what He tells you. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. What is the Word of God telling you to do in that verse? Confess or admit your sins to Him and if you do that, what does God say He will do for you in return? He WILL forgive your sins and cleanse you from ALL unrighteousness. Do you believe what God says? The only reason why God can do this for you is because of what God did for those sins in the person of His Son Jesus the Christ. The problem with most believers that exercise the promise of 1John 1:9 is that 10 minutes after confessing their sins they commit another one and they are right back where they started before they confessed; out of fellowship again. On top of that most start having a guilt complex and that’s a sin as well and then they need to confess that sin to the Father! There are sins of omission and well as sins of commission that puts one out of fellowship. My advice to you would be to confess you sins to God the Father as soon as you sin then start forming some good study habits; like starting in the gospel of John and reading as much every day as you can right straight through to the end of the Bible. Buy yourself some marking pencils and start underline promises. Follow that with starting over and reading the whole New Testament from Matthew again to Rev. Then do it with a different translation and then start with Gen. and read to the end of the Bible! Always ask God to reveal the truth of His word before you read! 2 Tim. 3:16-17 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Let God talk to you through His Word; you need to get back to Square one while you still have a chance. If you are still alive, God still has a plan for your life, CDBJ |

Hi Bobby, The best information I can give you then is to get in touch with the Lockman foundation translators and direct your question toward them. I don’t think any of them personally post on the forum. CDBJ |

Greetings Irish Eyes, There are little innuendoes that would cause me to think that we may have both been under the teaching of the same didaskalos; do the initials RBT ring a bell? Yours in Christ, CDBJ |

265 | How? | Mark | CDBJ | 198221 | ||
Greetings Irish Eyes, I just finished teaching that doctrine for the last three Sundays at Church and I agree with you completely. The Christian way of life is a super natural way of life that can only be entered by regeneration and lived daily by the exercise of 1John 1:9. Have a great day, CDBJ |

266 | Confused! | Prov 3:6 | CDBJ | 197378 | ||
It's generally the function of the Forum to let God's Word give the answers to questions. What we say as individuals doesn't hold much water; as the saying goes. The Bible is the answer that is profitable for instruction. All Scripture has a primary interpretation and often numerous practical applications. 2 Tim. 3:16-17 (NASB) All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; 17that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. Psalm 119:160 (NASB) The sum of Thy word is truth, And every one of Thy righteous ordinances is everlasting. 2 Tim. 2:15 (KJV) Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

268 | mathew 10:11 | Matt 10:14 | CDBJ | 197068 | ||
Hi Steve, I think you have the answer. The Koine Greek on this verse, with emphasis on the word "worth"; Matthew 10:11 And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence. (Worth) (AXIOS) from the “root word” AGO, expresses the sense of openness or being receptive, as kind hearted, not standoffish crude or rude. CDBJ |

Hi MD, That was a very informative post, you seem to know the Bible pretty well! Do you think you could take a few minutes and fill out a little something, in your “User Info” in the Resources section? I see you’ve been a member of the forum now for over four years, with close to 200 postings. It sure would be nice and could be helpful to many. CDBJ |

Greetings, I know you mean well with your answer to that question but you are stepping way outside of the function of the Bible forum boundary. The poster would be wise to seek help from her pastor as Tim suggested! Please keep this to a Bible study, CDBJ |

Greetings, On the forum it shows up like you are answering your own post! Why don’t you each get you own account then it won’t be all that confusing? If all those in Christ thought exactly the same there would be no need for a forum. 1 Cor. 12:14 For the body is not one member, but many. If you need help with this get back with me. CDBJ |

272 | New covnant w/ Isrl or proph on Christ? | Jer 31:22 | CDBJ | 196820 | ||
Hi Azure, Here is some interesting information on Jeremiah 31:22 From: (Bible Knowledge Commentary) 31:21-22. God called on the captives to set up road signs and guideposts as they traveled to Babylon and to remember the road they would take. They would need this information during His promised restoration so they could return to their towns. This time of promised restoration will be so remarkable that it will be as if God will create a new thing on earth. That new event is described proverbially by the clause, a woman will surround a man. This is probably the most difficult verse to understand in the Book of Jeremiah. One possible idea is that a woman will seek, or court, a man (NIV marg.). In that culture a woman would not normally court a man, so this would indicate something unusual. The woman here is Israel (v. 21). She had been unfaithful, but in the future she will finally seek out her God and ask to be united with Him. That might be a good source for your collection of study aids, I know it helps me, CDBJ |

Hi Doc, As yes, but of better content. When I built my house, some years ago, it wasn’t a wise practice just to know of a good solid foundation and mention it in passing; I had to actually use it and build on it from day one. Matthew 7:24-28 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it The cut of her jib, (JM), is a might oversize for a good blow which creates a bad weather helm and possible sinking in rough seas!

Greetings rdc, Those sure are some pretty word but aside from citing biblical chapters and verses it really doesn’t explain all that much on a Bible forum. Sometimes, if Scripture isn’t given, our vernacular expressions confuses others; I’m afraid that I fall into that category at this juncture. 2 Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: It’s usually "customary" to make a personal declaration then back it up with God’s Word. Here is one that you claim and I’m not quite sure how that works. “I should go on but it becomes tedious to the boastful.” Why should you go on, and how is it tedious to the boastful; I've never seen it be much of a problem for them? You mentioned the KJV of the Bible and commercial versions; does that mean that your KJV was free or something? I would like to suggest that you might want to add the denomination that you mentioned, in your post, to your User Info; sometimes it helps: I’ve never heard of that denomination? I hope you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |

It seems that you have an agenda or an ax to grind as it were since you posted the same message twice at two different times, exhibiting that it wasn’t an accident: once at 10:43 then again at 11:00 with the same information. Are we to infer something as a result of this action? The form list the following information: Pushing ones own personal and denominational views Please limit, to the best of your ability, the known denominational biases that produce potential strife and undue conflict. Please avoid interjecting obvious denominational biases, especially when urged by peers to cease. Otherwise, it becomes a battle of wills, and only tears down morale and causes division. If we are notified that this situation is occurring we will review it and act as necessary. CDBJ |

Greetings and reference to your take on l Cor. 13:10, Your logic seems realistic enough, looking at the verse from an English translation but the Koine Greek spells it quite differently. 1 Cor. 13:10 (KJV)(A) English But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. 1 Cor. 13:10 (KOINE GREEK) (A) When (HOTEN) but (DE) comes (ELTHE) the (TO) completion (TELEION) The word translated as perfect in the English is from the base word (TELEIOS) (Adjective) pronominal, or having the function of a pronoun. In the nominative case, i.e. designating, of, or in the case of the subject of a finite verb. It is in the neuter gender; Jesus Christ is masculine gender not neuter gender., singular person It all points to the completed Cannon of Scripture which was to come later after Paul spoke these words and being finished with the book of Revelation by the apostle John. Enjoy the forum, CDBJ P.S. I like your personal profile and your branch of service! YOU WIN! |

279 | Knowledge of why they are in torment? | Luke | CDBJ | 196598 | ||
Greetings stjohn, The only thing that even comes close to the rich man even having a clue might come from verse 30. Luke 16:30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. Emphasis on (they will repent) The problem with the word “repent”, as used here in the English is that it doesn’t convey the meaning as the word use in the Koine Greek and what it actually means. (Strong's) metanoeo,; from Greek 3326 (meta) and Greek 3539 (noieo); to think differently or afterwards, i.e. reconsider (moral feel compunction) :- repent. METANOEO is directional word and it’s like a compass. A compass is useless unless one has some idea of where they are and then the direction they need to go to change their position. Spiritual direction: Without the Holy Spirit we would be in a hopeless situation. John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. 2 Tim. 2:25-26 (B) (if God peradventure will give them repentance) to the acknowledging of the truth; 26And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. I guess we can agree to disagree! CDBJ |

Hi Val, I have so much peace about this that it’s near impossible for me to convey it. All of my hope resides in Jesus and the grace of God that was given to me through faith in Christ my Saviour. Philip. 4:7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. CDBJ |
