2641 | Why the judgment on Edom? | Obad 1:21 | srbaegon | 29028 | ||
So let's ask the question: Why the strict judgment on Edom? A short answer might be that Esau's contempt for his birthright and hatred for Jacob stealing the blessing continued on to his offspring even though Esau and Jacob seemed to patch things up when Jacob returned from serving Laban. This hatred would manifest itself against the nation of Israel later. Steve |

2642 | God's Lovingkindness to Israel | Hosea | srbaegon | 29024 | ||
God's love.................................... I especially enjoy chapter 11 of this book because it shows God's intense love for His people. "I loved him...I led them...bent down to feed them" "How can I give you up?" "How can I surrender you?" Too wonderful for words! Steve |
||||||
2643 | "Jehovah Rophe - our Lord and Healer"??? | Ex 15:26 | srbaegon | 29018 | ||
Correction................................. You said "He is the Son of Man but also the Holy Spirit, God with us." That's not quite correct. Jesus Christ is not the Holy Spirit inasmuch as neither of them is the Father. Steve |
||||||
2644 | Where? | Ex 15:26 | srbaegon | 29003 | ||
The text you desire............................. "Lord...your healer" or "Lord who heals you" is the text in question. I believe all the compound names of Jehovah are Hebrew. There are some Bible editions that have these listed as footnotes or in the cross-reference section of the page. In order to answer your question I did an internet search for "jehovah rapha". I know where some are located, but this one escaped me. There are books explaining the names of God, but I don't know which has all these listed. Sorry. Steve |

2645 | "Jehovah Rophe - our Lord and Healer"??? | Ex 15:26 | srbaegon | 28975 | ||
An answer............... The accompanying verse has one instance. Steve |
||||||
2646 | Sumission to authority? | Heb 13:17 | srbaegon | 28650 | ||
Submission to authority.......................... There are many questions in your question. A big way to recognize authority is by the attitude you take when discussing your pastor or his views. You can disagree, but acknowledge him and his position without belittling. Are your interpretations different or the application? There is no difficulty with alternate applications. If your interpretations differ, that's another matter. Be patient in this (maybe you already have). There are times when it is best to part, and yes, it could be mutually profitable to both. "How can two walk together unless they agree?" Steve |

2647 | How does Deut. 4:9 relate to my life? | Deut 4:9 | srbaegon | 28621 | ||
Think of it as an elongated testimony time. Sharing what the Lord has done in your life is an excellent teaching tool to young minds showing how the Lord is faithful in His dealings. That's why we find such a high premium in the OT on setting up stones and pillars and psalms of remembrance. The call is to remember the work of the Lord. Even in the Lord's Supper we have this portrayed--remembering Him. If we fail to tell the next generation, the people forget and move away from Him. Steve |
||||||
2648 | Death of the high priest? | Josh 20:6 | srbaegon | 28610 | ||
Fareshadowing of Christ........................ I see the picture as those condemned by the Law (therefore punishable by death) who had fled to the city of refuge (God Himself) until that time when the high priest (Lord Jesus) died, thus releasing the debt. There's probably other ways to see this. Steve |
||||||
2649 | what day is the sabbath? why | Bible general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 27724 | ||
Quick search............. Look up "sabbath" using Quick Search in the upper right. You will find many posts on the subject. Steve |

2650 | What type of tree was Aaron's rod from? | Num 17:8 | srbaegon | 27653 | ||
Saving face.................................. I suppose one could assume it was almond, but technically speaking, we don't know for sure...or should I just admit to not reading entire verse when I did a search? :-( Steve |
||||||
2651 | What type of tree was Aaron's rod from? | Num 17:8 | srbaegon | 27651 | ||
Answer.................. Scripture does not say. Steve |
||||||
2652 | what did jesus look like | Hebrews | srbaegon | 27628 | ||
Response.................................. We have no description of the Lord in Scripture. All we can deduce is that He looked like a typical Semitic features (olive skin, hooked nose, black hair). Steve |
||||||
2653 | Who was the Mother and Father of Nimrod? | Bible general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 27572 | ||
Answer........................... His father's name was Cush (Gen 10:8). Scripture does not give the mother's name. Steve |
||||||
2654 | 1 Timothy 5 | 1 Timothy | srbaegon | 27566 | ||
Recommendation........... Hello lilbits, Coming from a Plymouth Brethren background, I can understand your church structure with the inherent strengths and weaknesses. The best book I've seen on the subject of elders is "Biblical Eldership" by Alex Strauch. I have other suggestions as well, but I don't want to fill up the forum's database. Feel free to contact me at srbricker@hotmail.com. Steve |

2655 | what is baptism | Bible general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 27547 | ||
I would agree that faith accompanied (or evidenced) by obedience saves you. The proper act of obedience for salvation is given in Rom 10:9-10 (believe and confess). Baptism has no part of justification. Steve |

2656 | what is baptism | Bible general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 27295 | ||
The Lord Jesus is not a condition. What His death provided was what the OT sacrifices were pointing to (which you pointed out). We no longer have to do those things to be covered for our sins. The condition has not changed--salvation has been and always will be by faith. It is the only condition. The works done are evidence of the reality of the faith in us. Romans 6 has nothing to do with justification. It begins a section addressing our Christian walk. Steve |
||||||
2657 | what is baptism | Bible general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 26843 | ||
Objection............................ "Rightousness in the old test. was obtained through the same faith that saves us in the new test. but with different conditions." If it's the same faith, why change the conditions? Why would God decide that what worked from Genesis through Malachi would no longer work afterward? When did it change? At the incarnation? At the cross? At the ascension? At Pentecost? Steve |
||||||
2658 | Why should we pray to Mary? | 1 Tim 2:5 | srbaegon | 26705 | ||
Mother of God.......................... Hi Joe, Just a note here. Be careful about how far you go with disliking "Mother of God". The Chalcedonian Creed states that Christ was "in these latter days, for us and for our salvation, born of the Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, according to the Manhood." So we should say Mary was the mother of the God-man or God in human form or God incarnate, however you wish to state it. Steve |

2659 | what is baptism | Bible general Archive 1 | srbaegon | 26685 | ||
Don't assume I am unfamiliar................... I know your line of thought. Why should I put Romans 4 in context with James 2? Better to work out the meaning of Rom 4 and James 2, then comparing them. Romans 4 is teaching that man is justified by faith alone apart from any work. James 2 is a response to a question concerning the proof of faith in someone's life. Two different subjects. Gen 15:6 (where Abraham is declared righteous upon belief) occurs several years before Gen 22 (where the faith is put to the ultimate test). Do we say that Abraham was yet lost until he was willing to offer up Isaac? I think not. He was declared righteous upon belief. No action was necessary. And it was only after this righteousness was imputed did Abraham receive the sign of circumcision. And besides trying to tell us that salvation occurs at baptism, you state that God saves some in a completely different way. You are preaching two gospels, and both are different from the truth.

Digging yourself deeper......................... Kin, You better stop. Not only are you spreading another gospel (baptismal regeneration) but also spreading a third--that Acts 2 and Acts 10 are something altogether different. This is a long ways from the simplicity of Rom 4:3-5. For what does the Scripture say? "ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND IT WAS CREDITED TO HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS." Now to the one who works, his wage is not credited as a favor, but as what is due. But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness Steve |
