262 | Choosing Christ? | John 3:19 | jeremiah1five | 241670 | ||
And the KJV (with emphasis): John 3:19-20 (KJV) 19 And this is the condemnation, that light (Christ) is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light (Christ), because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light (Christ), neither cometh to the light (Christ), lest his deeds should be reproved. I run into so-called Christians who say they "choose/chose" Christ and became saved. But Jesus emphatically says that no one comes to Him, that all born into the world hate Him. Jesus also taught that a man will have only one master in life and when born into the world that master is darkness (evil/sin). I should note here that everyone that had relationship with God in the Scripture was called of God and none "chose" God or Christ. The disciples were called out of the world and if God or His Christ does not call anyone out of the world that they remain in the world. Let me also note here that the word "lost/loss" is always used of God's Elect when their salvation is being referred. Can one who is in bondage to sin and in the world just "up" and choose Christ without regeneration, without conversion, without the Holy Spirit? Jesus Himself elsewhere said that (salvation) for men is impossible (Matt. 19:26). According to Scripture people cannot justup and choose Christ without the Holy Spirit making the first move. Yet many Christians are deceived in this and sin against God when they meet these false Christians and put light for darkness (and also darkness for light when they treat true born of God like heathens). Are you deceived? (justme, I prefer to not forgive you since you are unwilling to repent so please do not reply here. I want nothing to do with you until you address your false accusation - thank you) |

263 | Defend the Offender-Attack the Offended? | Bible general | jeremiah1five | 241663 | ||
QUOTE: (found on the page I view) "Note to viewers: This thread has been temporarily restricted from appearing on the homepage. If you submit a question, answer, or note to this thread, it will be processed and added to the thread, but will not appear on the homepage." I'd like to ask why is the Holy Spirit within me being muzzled and you attempting to control my gift and call in Christ? Christians should love honesty and truthfulness, not try to control God and God's servant. Why am I being treated so disrespectfully? First you defend the offender and false accuser and then you attack the offended. This is ungodly. |

264 | (All these) Signs of the end times | Matt 24:33 | sonofmom | 241647 | ||
The Palastine Authority's Saeb Erekat has a plan before the UN,for Palastine to be recognized as a State, and plans for this to happen before the end of the year. The motion recognizes Israel building settlements in the West Bank to be illegal and threatening. They are pushing for the Two-State solution, and with a specific time frame to end Israel's occupation. This is a very exciting time to be alive, as I see God's plan for the end times to be picking up speed. in Matt 24:32, Jesus said, take a lesson from the fig tree: when its branch has already become tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near; (v33) so, you too, when you see all these things, recognize that He is near, right at the door.… What things will we look for in addition? Are there other verses that point the way, I am thinking along the lines of a third temple being built. Thank you for your help |

265 | Who or What Dictates Your Behavior? | Deut 6:6 | jeremiah1five | 241633 | ||
The following is a no-brainer....when Israel gathered before God at the Tabernacle with every tribe placed in encampments around the Tabernacle according to the will of God they all lived, ate, worked/not worked, recreated, behaved, etc., according to God's Law as given by God them through Moses. They did not gather and then all behaved as the heathen peoples' that surrounded them (and their surrounding them was at a great distance.) Whether one wants to agree or not but being at an online site for Christians I notice that there are many rules in place that supersede God's expressed command and Word that Christians must agree to abide before (mostly after) they join the site, and if for some reason run afoul of the rules of the Forum or site (most are written using secular modes or methods of behavior) they receive punitive measures against them, even banning, which I take as excommunication and for no real sin except to violate human or western free-world, even American modes of behavior. Some places have Moderators that interfere between brethren and dish out those punitive measures against brethren and short-circuit the Holy Spirit in His application of the Word of God upon His people. In other words, the ONLY Moderator in a born again believers life is the Word of God and the Holy Spirit who uses the Word in accordance to the expressed and established Will of God. When the children of Israel gathered before the Tabernacle were they compelled to abide and follow heathen behavioral norms, or did the have the Word of God that dictated their behavior towards brethren and towards God? Deuteronomy 6:6-9 (KJV) 6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: 7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. 9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates. |

268 | Mark 1:12 ekbaino not ekballo, | Mark 1:12 | stepmor | 241604 | ||
The NASB uses the word "impelled" in Mark 1:12. The NASB concordance claims that the word "ekbaino" is used here, not the word "exballo". Strong does not have the word ekbaino at all. I have not found a Greek text that uses this word either. How did the translators choose this word? | ||||||
269 | willful nonpayment of debts? | John 14:15 | timley1959 | 241607 | ||
My question pertains to this scripture: Romans 13:1-6, 1 Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and he will commend you. 4 For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also because of conscience. 6 This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, who give their full time to governing. Is a believer a true believer if they make no attempt to pay their debts like 15 years of back taxes, school loans, gym membership contracts, cell phone and home phone contracts, hospital services and court judgements? They believe that past mistakes are all forgiven and prayer is the answer to fixing these debt collections | ||||||

What say you? Were Cain and Abel twins? Genesis 4:1-2 (KJV) 1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. 2 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. (Isaiah 1:18) |

274 | How do you share Jesus with others? | Eph 4:12 | justme | 241533 | ||
Very few Christians share their faith in Jesus Christ. What is one way you share you faith in Jesus Christ with others the Lord has directed you to. Do you ask The Lord to direct you to someone to share Jesus Christ during your day? Would you be willing to ask the Lord to bring someone into your life to share Jesus Christ with today? |

275 | difference in a Christians funeral? | Bible general | justme | 241531 | ||
How should a Christians funeral be different to being Glory to the LORD GOD Almighty. I have see a number of funerals that the only difference from a non-Christian was the songs they sang. Have you given instructions the way you want to praise the LORD when you have gone to be with Jesus Christ? | ||||||
276 | Has The GLORY of the LORD left the USA? | Bible general | justme | 241529 | ||
Recently in Kay Arthur's Bible Study, she said she felt the Glory of the Lord has left the United States. After carefully thinking about this subject, I too think the LORDS protection, the US once had, may well be removed. What do you think? |

277 | God created man sin-ful? | Bible general | jeremiah1five | 241520 | ||
Scripture teaches that there is only One God, that God gives His glory to no one, and there is none like God. I do not believe God can reduplicate Himself in Himself so part of His plan for man is to create heaven, earth, etc. I have come to believe that God created man (Adam) sin-ful, or as the word is defined by Strong's "to miss the mark." What is that "mark?" The glory of God. Adam sinned because he was created a sinner, or sin-ful, as there is only One God. If God is the standard by which everyone and everything is judged, and if Paul is correct that "I had not known sin but by the Law. For I had not known lust except the Law said 'thou shalt not covet." Wouldn't the command to Adam "thou shalt not eat of it [the fruit/tree]" also qualify as a law/command of "thou shalt not" showing that Adam was a sinner? Adam had not known disobedience except the law/command said "thou shalt not eat of it?" Sin comes from sinners, sin does not come from holy, and if man was anything less than holy he would sin. The last Adam proves this? |
