G. Preston: When I read Scripture there have been times common sense did not fit with what the LORD did. For instance allowing King Herod to kill all the boys under the age of two. Common sense would have me believe our Lovomg God would not allow all those little babies to be killed, after all these were Jewis babies. But my common sense would have failed me. Common sense only goes so far, and the LORD has said His ways are not our ways. In Psalm 139 it says god knows our begining and end, even before we are concieved. Just that fact alone brings into question why would God have two books when He knows if we are being written into the Book and later to be removed. Common sense fails in every way I can think of. There are so many questions about these books. So I can do a more detailed study and further study, can you give me the Scriptures you are looking at for these two Books? I will do a fair and just study, as this has pricked my interest. Blessings. justmwe |

I am a "member of the..."once saved always saved"....group." Is this your attempt to discredit those who take a different position other than yours? There is no cause for you to intimidate and ridicule others, to make yourself superior. Your dialogue does not resemble anything I consider to be Christ like. I sincerely hope you take some time to reflect on this. justme |

283 | speaking in tongues | Bible general Archive 4 | justme | 234197 | ||
I think if you read John and the book of Acts it will help form your own opinion. There are churches and some denominations that believe unless you utter an unknown language your salvation is incomplete and or you do not have the Holy Spirit living inside you. A persons opinion is just that, but looking to Scripture for what God has said is what matters. I believe you may find tongues is within Scripture. There maybe little Scriptural defense for suggesting unless you speak in tongues salvation is insufficie The subject of tongues is very important and you need to examine Scripture this for your self. So be very sure for yourself and do diligence in your reasearch. This may well take some time in searching the Scriptures. Blessings. justme |

284 | If not saved and suicide done Lost??? | Bible general Archive 4 | justme | 234172 | ||
G. Preston: Doing a funeral for someone who ended their life is heart wrenching for those left behind. In the case of someone who was in the family of believers in a church, there may be many who agonize with faith, death, and the question of why. There is never an answer that fills the gaps between God giving us more than we can handle, and the persons mental ability ask for help. Ther are medical reasons that can effect a persons mental stability. For example Alzheimer, Dementia, Dementia associated with alcoholism have had their share of those who saw no future, and were without hope. When the mind is disabled, lets say, cancer or other destructive causes then olny the LORD knows. However when I look at Romans 8:33-39 overwhelmingly, especially verse's 38 and 39 states "....will be able to seprate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Verse 38 includes "death". There is no reason for our condemnation of those who end their life, that is for Jesus Christ to deal with. Because the Bible does not directly speak in regard to suicide. We can say suicide is not trusting in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 10:13 "No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it." NASB 1995 Even for a person who is mentally incapacitated, suicide is sin. Taking control away from God and ending our life is always wrong and sinful. Even though we emphathize with situations that people endure, Scripture always gives us the words to guide and counsel with God's love with those in need of compassion. justme |

285 | How do you demonstrate contentment? | Not Specified | justme | 234042 | ||
Paul mentions contentment. How are some of the ways you have learned to be content? If contentment is to be a part of our life that stands out from the rest of the world how do we show it? One example might be driving your car for as long as you can to demonstrate you don't have to buy a new car every two or three years. |

Hello Herman: I have read a good number of your post's. There is no doubt you are well educated, and must have an extensive library along with a great ability for recalling a lot. I would say you have the ability to debate that challenges, and sharpens most that come up against you. I would guess you may have a PHD. Your command of English sure puts me to shame anyway, but so do a lot of others. I believe the book of JOB as recorded is an accurate account of real events. I believe the Bible to be true, every bit. I don't consider myself to be an expert on any one book of the Bible, but I do study it and learn from it all the time. There are some issues that are well worth while standing firm and digging in for all it's worth, and even going to the wall over. There are areas that are debatable, and both sides of the issue have great points and either side could be right. But those subjets are no reason for disfellowship betweeen each other. However, even in areas of disagreement there is no acceptable reason to be high and mighty. I believe this forum is often read by a lot of people just looking about. The way the Study Bible Forum presents its post's either encourages people to ask a question, or gets turned off by what they think is endless debate and unkind words. That's not to say debating is bad. But there is a tone or way we say words that gives a strong negative feeling, or a or positive welcome. John 13:35 "By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another." NASB. I will nor speak for anyone else. However, I will give you my opinion. You come across like you are a expert and only your remarks are vaild. This is not a place for competition or that anyone knows it all. For a very long time kindness, respect, and Christian love has been what the Study Bible Forum participant's have tried to illuminate. I sincerely welcome you to the Study Bible Forum. Your eagerness to join in is a challenge and all of us need learn from one another. Blessings. justme |

GP: There is a pattern in your post's, and the return post's that EVERYONE keeps asking you. Over and over you are asked to give a Scripture for your statement. But you don't answer, WHY? I am hoping that your staying with your point, means you are trying to hang in here, I hope that's it. Sometimes we all have a memory clitch and just can't come up with a Scripture. There is no shame in saying that You can't remember where in the Bible it says, such and such. Ask if anyone knows where a Scripture is found. That's being open and honest, and allowing others to improve their recall as well. You might try doing that. I wonder why you use "G-d's" word? I think for myself that God's Word shows grater respect. That's your choice of course. I again appeal to you again to respond with Scripture when asked, don't just refer back to a post made days ago, we just can't find what you refer us to. No one is against you, we are trying to reach out to you to help you abide by the forum ruels. I have no intention in distracting you from God's Word. What I am asking you to do is go into the Word of God to prove your point. I agree, that enough has been said, asking you to comply with Scripture for you post. I sincerely hope you see a number of us are really trying to assimilate you into the Study Bible Forum. As for me it will be a great blessing to welcome you. Please reconsider that extra effort is being made to help you. Blessings GP. justme |

G P: I have read a good number of your post's and followed this thread for a good while from the start. We all come across to others on the forum in a unique way that shows our personality, as others think we are. I am not to sure what others think about me, I know my gramer is an issue especially when I am in pain and my medication is not doing much good. I hope that I am seen as loyal to Christ and respectful to those on this forum. I admit a few times I have been corrected, and I hope I have been thoughtful enough to amend my issues that I was informed of. I suppose I would say in a different sort of way I see the forum like family, the family of God. For some of us when we give a post we expose a part of us. That esposure can be good or maybe perhaps we are seem as stubborn, ignorant, or maybe others can't see exactally what we are trying to communicate. As you can read I am chasing rabbits, I am hoping that you might gleam from my note, that I am really tring to be respectful, kind, and speak in christian brotherly love. Perhaps you should re-read this thread, I think you would pick out what I am trying to say. A good number of forum members have asked you a number of times to use a scripture to back what you were saying. For just about anyone reading this thread, they might get the opinion you were unwilling to follow the forum rules. I have read Doc asking you a number of times to give a Scripture, and it appears you ignored him. Doc even gave you the Scripture Jeremiah 23:16, which was as I read it a picture of what was happening. I responded to you. yesterday and instead of really giving some thought to using different versions, you gave a answer ignoring what I said. I really doubt that many average people would go on line to find out what the two versions you suggested read like. I live in the Bible Belt. I can assure some KJV only christians would never consider looking in a nother translation. I think it is good to think about this. However the NASB has caused a good number of people to carefully look at the NASB, and some have reconsidered. Our host Lockman deserves to be given credit, not just for a wonderful translation of the Bible, But their generosity for providing this forum. The ruels of were, I believe, made by Lockman and when using this forum we must abide with their ruels or go some where else, if we don't agree to abide with them. To me, you seem defensive, and either you don't understand or just have your way of doing things. I am speaking for myself, and no one else. I hope you will understand that if I did not care I would have not taken the time to express my genuine concern. I wish only to be a brother in Christ Jesus, and want for you to grow and enjoy fellowship with other christians in the forum. Blessings brother G P. justme |

G P: I am not sure if many in the forum have a CE, or a NLT. As a help for those who do not have those translationnns it might be helpful when using a translation other than the NASB (the kind people that provide us this web site) or perhaps the NIV or the ESV. The last three translations are in general use for some time. Here in the Bible Belt many read nothing but the King James only! For me personally when I first read the PURPOSE DIVVEN LIFE I was very concerned. The reason I was concerned was Rev. Rick Warren used ELEVEN different versions of the Bible in his book. I get very alarmed when someone uses many different versions in a book. This in my opinion, is looking for a Bible that reads the way you want some verse to say. Surely in eleven different Bibles a person could get a point accross they want Scripture to say. If you ever get a chance to watch Precepts for Life with Kay Arthur, she teaches with Scripture that gives some Biblical proof as to the point of two books. I doubt many Christianns have such a wide knowledge the Bible. My wife and I have been blessed for the last two years. I only wish seminary were as in depth as Kay's teaching. Blessings. justme |
