261 | josiebible, where does it say we can ask | Romans | GeorJoy | 91828 | ||
Hi Searcher. Me again. I can't say how much I appreciate Her answer, for what she said sparked a memory of what I reciently read. Something to the affect of your words precisely. "this gift is for all who ask and believe." ...something about the Holy Spirit. It's funny how we can read the answer to one of our own questions, yet not see it. When I find it I'll post it. Thanks for ur question, because it is there. Geore |

263 | Is God's love unconditional ? | John 3:16 | GeorJoy | 91619 | ||
Joh 3:16 Yea, and this was the very design of God's love in sending him into the world. Whosoever believeth on him - With that faith which worketh by love, and hold fast the beginning of his confidence steadfast to the end. God so loved the world - That is, all men under heaven; even those that despise his love, and will for that cause finally perish. Otherwise not to believe would be no sin to them. For what should they believe? Ought they to believe that Christ was given for them? Then he was given for them. He gave his only Son - Truly and seriously. And the Son of God gave himself, Gal_4:4, truly and seriously. Per John Wesley George |

264 | Is God's love unconditional ? | John 3:16 | GeorJoy | 91612 | ||
Gods Love (IS) unconditional, however salvation, (the eternal life mentioned in Jn 3:16) is not. Those who would rather justify and remain in their sin and ignorance, will argue this fact. George |

As I previously stated, I did not intend to spark a debate on this matter. It has nothing to do with the question posted and I respectfully decline your argument. Thus I consider it closed. George |

By the way John. Did I say they did? I simply asked a question. A simple yes or no would have been sufficient, I wasn't really expecting a debate on the subject, which was aside from the original question in the first place. George |

There is the "Carismatic movement," and I am sure many more who abuse, misuse and misinterpret what is taught about such. Personally, I have never expected to hear another language like german or chinese or swahili. I wouldn't have reconized them as such if I had. I can't say that I am "fully" comfortable with everyone who professes to speak in toungs either. But I do know what Gods word says about the utterance of such. And the Holy Spirit has given me discernment. I should think that anyone who believes the word without trying to change it would also. I know that there are those who love to be noticed in church, and elsewhere as well, but I have no intention of letting their actions sway what I know of the word, and why I am in the church in the first place. I believe in toungs. Once again, I also know what Paul said about them. If one does not feel comfortable around toungs, fine. If another does, that's just as fine. The belief or disbelief of such isn't going to get one into or keep him out of heaven. Personally... If it's of God... and He said I could have it.... I WANT IT.... John, if you don't think it's of God, please, I don't want to hear it. God Bless George |

268 | How does any Homosexual believe they are | Rom 1:19 | GeorJoy | 91562 | ||
The servant is condemned only by the Master. If he is not a servant in the first place, it is the DUTY of those who are servants of THE Master to point out the Masters qualifications. If The Master has made it plain that something is detestable in His sight, is it not the duty of the servants to inform the "wantabe" or non servant before he meets with THE MASTERS WRATH? Admittedly, there are servants who's zeal, ignorance or whatever one should call it, who would appear to pass on The Masters "judgement," rather than his written qualifications. Those servants Will answer to The Master in due season. George |

269 | How does any Homosexual believe they are | Rom 1:19 | GeorJoy | 91558 | ||
You stated "Do I think Ninevah would have been saved without Jonah pointing out thier sin? Only God knows this," WRONG! God gave us His word that we should discern good from evil, and know His perfect will. No matter how hard we may try, our will will never be His unless it is within the context of His perfect will. It is apparent from your posts to date, that you have no desire for knowledge or discernment, only justification through twisting, deluting and redefining the word, as did Saton, the current lord and master of those whom you try to justify, when he tryed to tempt Jesus. The mere claim that "you have accepted God's gift of grace brought to us through Jesus...who died for our sins" is hogwash without the evidence of repentance and the "renewing of the mind" which is the evidence of the rebirth.

270 | How does any Homosexual believe they are | Rom 1:19 | GeorJoy | 91551 | ||
What is important is NOT what you, I, or anyone else BELIEVES. WHAT (IS) IMPORTANT IS WHAT THE WORD OF GOD STATES. And the Word STATES that those of whom you speak "are an abomination." A concise version of Webster's definition of the word "abomination" is "extreme disgust and hatred : LOATHING." Whether you like it or not, the answer to your question is NO. No amount of discussion, debating or arguing will change the answer. Going a little deeper however; Can a homosexual get saved? Yes. But like everyone else, they have to BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST AS SAVIOR, REPENT of their sin(S,) ask for forgiveness; then and only then will they be saved from the wages of their sin(s.) Unlike in this (so called) modern day society, there is no favoritism or special privileges where God all mighty is concerned. I am sure you will have already been quoted what I am about to quote, but the following is THE WORD. There will be not one single letter of it changed from the beginning of time to the end thereof... Rom 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: Rom 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; There relationship with God is between them and God. They will be the ones who spend eternity in the burning pits of Hades. Scripture also states that "their blood will be on the heads of those who do not inform them" of the wages of their sins.

271 | What scripture quotes name of "beloved d | John 21:20 | GeorJoy | 91547 | ||
No. It dosen't really answer my question, for it does not state who, or which desciple "had leaned back on His breast at the supper." However, I have found the answer. It is not dirrectly addressed in scripture, and I am sure it is one that many will not understand. Consider the fact that in his gospel, "John" looks on himself as a third party. Keeping this in mind, one will find the answer therein. George |

As Paul said, I would rather you speak one word that the church understands than ten thousand that they do not. Toungs edify the individual, nothing and no one else. I guess if one had the guift of toungs, yet not that of interpritation, it would be "uttering meaningless syllables." Thanks for your input George |

Please correct me if I am wrong, but I am of the impression that those of the Presbyterian faith do not believe in the speaking of toungs. Whether so or not, the trinity is the foundation. George |

274 | Isn't believing Christ for salvation suf | John 3:3 | GeorJoy | 91452 | ||
I thank you for not having responded in the manor in which many would have. I would have to say that without realizing, you have found the contention. Although belief is a synonym (one of two or more words or expressions of the same language that have the same or “nearly” the same meaning in some or all senses,) thereof; Faith is a different word and has a different meaning, (although slight.) Rom 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved Whether we can express it in words or not, I think we may be on the same track. The key word is FAITH. However, I still contend, and will until scripture is shown to say otherwise, that “BELIEVING ALONE IS NOT SUFFICIENT FOR SALVATION!!!” The answer is in the “whole of scripture”, not one verse thereof. If one were to, (and there are many who do,) take individual verses and focus in on them, they could, (and do) make the scripture say whatever they desire. God Bless George |

I also have heard that John was "the disciple whom Jesus loved," however the scripture you quote only says that Peter "saw the disciple whom Jesus loved." This has sparked a topical study on my part. If I can find this post, I will note the exact scripture when found. I'm sure that with the spirit that there is in this forum, someone else will beat me to the draw, for I am currently on vacation. Not from the word. From the daily grind. George |

276 | HUSBANDS LOVE LIKE CHRIST LOVED? | Eph 5:28 | GeorJoy | 91436 | ||
Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; "Even as Christ loved the church;" This was the strongest love that has ever been evinced in this world. It follows, that a husband is in no danger of loving his wife too much, provided she be not loved more than God. We are to make the love which Christ had for the church the model. The husband should also consider and pay heed to the deepest meaning of the following. Eph 5:28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. One can easily get caught up in church activities. Unless your husband is a Pastor, it is NOT Gods intent that your husband should forsake his family for “church activities.” If he is a Pastor, then there are sacrifices that both you and he have to make. May I suggest that you AND your husband consider a prayerful and diligently study of what the word has to say concerning the “duties of a husband” and the “duties of a wife.” Eph 5:20 would be a good starting point. If, after having done so, there are still questions or contentions, your Pastor should be able to provide guidance in the matter. May God Bless protect, watch over and be with you and yours. George |

277 | Why so blind? | Not Specified | GeorJoy | 91428 | ||
I know the answer is in scripture, but I can't put my finger on it. My questions are as follows; 1) Why do people who (appear) to be sincere twist the true meaning of scripture? If possible, I would prefer scriptural quotes as an answer, ie "KJV Mar 4:12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand," with limited paraphrases, devoid of OPINION. 2) Is the entire bible as a parable to some, or only portions that they choose not to accept? Or is it as is said in Ecc 3:1 "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven," to include understanding as well? George |

Ok my friend. If it is your desire, you have every right to focus on that one particular verse, and pay absolutely no attention to the others I have quoted. I can't imagine one even having read the book of Romans and not understood what I have "QUOTED from scripture." I am also aware of various "translators" who aren't in the least biblical in their translations. Your having "translated the entire letter to the Romans," yet having no more understanding of salvation than you profess puts me in mind of the Pharisees and Sadducees. I mean this not as an insult, for I am sure that you are sincere in what you say and think. I am also sure that there were Pharisees and Sadducees that were just as sincere. I give PRAISE TO GOD ALMIGHTY that you have noticed that "This kind of response seems to be coming more and more frequently on the forum over the last few weeks," for this is EXACTLY what I have been preaching herein for past few weeks. That one should STUDY the word for themselves as it says in 2Ti 2:15 KJV "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." And that one should follow a man of God, preferably their Pastor, and go to him rather than such false prophets as are running rampant on sights such as this and throughout the web. I thank God also, that to date, all who I have personally corresponded with on THIS PARTICULAR sight have been (serious) where the word of God is concerned. We have averted arguments, agreed, disagreed, and agreed to disagree. I should hope that you could be included in this statement. It is up to you, for I will not back off from the word. Not my interpretation is THE WORD, for the word IS my interpretation. I depend on the Holy Spirit and those inspired and anointed of God, proven such over the century’s, for scriptural translation Your statement that "When one can't explain their position, or Scripture totally teaches something other than their position," proves that you have "translated more than just the book of Romans." It is apparent that you have "translated" it into something that it isn't. Anyone, no matter how ignorant, who has read the posts to which your note is attached, can plainly see your refusal to accept or understand "SCRIPTURE." If you would rather use your personal so called "translation," then if you insist on sharing your ignorance, you should expect that those who recognize it as such will, at least make an attempt to clarify what you have so badly distorted.
