301 | organ donation and The Bible | Rom 16:4 | jlpangilinan | 64963 | ||
Organ donation is not bad if you do it to save life, The doctrine of Jehovas Witnesses stated that they are not allowed to donate blood, but it is not written that to donate blood is prohibited in the bible. The blood is prohibited to eat. In the bible there are passages that even the church members ready to sacrifice thier lives for others: 1Jo 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. We can sacrifice our lives to the benefit of others, organ donation indeed sometimes put the lives of the donors in danger, but if the motive is good (to save lives) I dont think God will prohibit that. Priscilla and Aquila helped Paul, take a look what paul said to them. Ro 16:3 Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus: Ro 16:4 Who have for my life laid down their own necks: unto whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles. They ready to give thier own lives for the sake of paul. God bless, Johnny |

302 | God can't sin? | Ps 93:5 | jlpangilinan | 64673 | ||
Job 34:12 Yea, surely God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert judgment. Ex 15:11 Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders? Ps 93:5 Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O LORD, for ever. |

303 | could this scripture be related? Zech3:1 | Jude 1:9 | jlpangilinan | 64477 | ||
pastor glenn, with all due respect, I know this note of your is not for me but I would like to clarify some things that you mentioned. You write"You are right about the danger of them idolizing his tomb. They had, after all, idolized the bronze serpent that God had Moses to set up." I would like to strike on "idolized the bronze serpent" I dont think they idolize the bronze serpent. As we all know that "idolatry: is everything you put higher than God. It is God commanded moses to make that bronze serpent, moses make it not for himself but from the authority from God, I dont think we call that Idolatry. I would like to put here the commandments against I dolatry: Ex 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Ex 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; God specify how idolatry is"Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them:" thou shall not bow them nor serve them" I dont think israelites serve that "serpent" aside from the fact that God commanded moses to do those things, if you are moses I know you will do the same thing follow God word, and I dont think we call that idolatry. That is my clarification, I think if we call that idolatry, it is the same thing that we say God contradict himself by tolerated and commanded such a thing as "idolatry" God bless, Johnny Nu 21:8 And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live. |

304 | What is the name of Zebedee's wife? | Matt 27:56 | jlpangilinan | 64398 | ||
graceme, Welcome to the forum! Zebedee a Galilean fisherman, the husband of Salome (q.v.), and the father of James and John, two of our Lord's disciples (Mt 4:21; 27:56; Mr 15:40). He seems to have been a man of some position in Capernaum, for he had two boats (Lu 5:4) and "hired servants" (Mr 1:20) of his own. No mention is made of him after the call of his two sons by Jesus.

305 | Only church members can be baptized? | Acts 18:8 | jlpangilinan | 64397 | ||
Today receiving physical baptism of course through the process. You have to listen to the doctrine of the specific church (for example baptist) you have to know the doctrine of the the baptist. You have to accept the doctrine before receving the physical baptism. I think it very hard to just baptized anyone without knowing the doctrine of the specific church first. Ac 18:8 And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized. God bless, Johnny |

306 | Where does it say God appointed kings | 1 Sam 16:1 | jlpangilinan | 64380 | ||
Lord commanded samuel to anoint david as king of israel 1Sa 16:1 ¶ And the LORD said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons. 1Sa 16:12 And he sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to. And the LORD said, Arise, anoint him: for this is he. 1Sa 16:13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah. God bless, Johnny |

307 | Do you pay tithes on whole check or part | Acts 15:1 | jlpangilinan | 64248 | ||
Tithes is not a requirements for christian today, that law is given to israel not for the Christians, that its why in the whole new testament you cannot found any single teaching of Christ that will require everyone to pay the tithes to Him. Even the desciples and apostle they never require thier member to gives tithes 10 percent of thier income) Tithes is specifically given to the israelites, it was included in the law of moses. The law that given to israel in horeb are very specific to them. De 5:2 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb. De 5:3 The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day. it was mentioned there "who are all of us here alive this day" we are not included in that law. Authority of receiving tithes was given to the levites not for any pastor today: Heb 7:5 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham: Heb 7:12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law. You can ask your pastor if he is from the loins of levi and who pass to him the authority of receving tithes. Tithes indeed is included in the law of moses and according to Paul this will not justify us: Ac 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. If you want to observe the law you have to observed it completely not only part by part. Why only tithes? Christian accepted that we are not justified by the law but observe part of the law. We have to be consistent if observe the tithes that very part of the you must observed the other part of the law such as stoned to death your brother and sister when you saw them gathering stick in the day of sabbath. If we are not consistent we are the same with scribes and pharisees: Mt 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone. The giving that taught of paul goes this: 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. not ten percent nor 20 but according to the puposes of the heart.

308 | who wrote second corinthians and why. | 2 Cor 6:4 | jlpangilinan | 63931 | ||
leon figgins, Welcome to the forum! Apostle Paul He wrote it as part of His evangelical works to reach them the teaches of Christ, as well as reach us today through the bible. The contents of this epistle may be thus arranged: (1.) Paul speaks of his spiritual labours and course of life, and expresses his warm affection toward the Corinthians (1-7). (2.) He gives specific directions regarding the collection that was to be made for their poor brethren in Judea (8; 9). (3.) He defends his own apostolic claim (10-13), and justifies himself from the charges and insinuations of the false teacher and his adherents. God bless, Johnny |

310 | please explain matthews 22:15-22,verses. | Matt 22:21 | jlpangilinan | 63929 | ||
The Pharisees try to caught Jesus that He maybe suggested that it is good to give to God instead of giving to cesar. So that they can accused Him anything that can cause Him to be in prison or whatsoever penalty it maybe. They are taking about taxes for the government of cesar and offering for the Lord. If we read the verse we will see that Christ really not against taxation He is ready to follow or taught to us that we should give what due to our government and give what due to our God. How does it apply to our everyday life? giving due to God or due to our government does not only apply to money. Give to God what due to God by helping the church our co members and other people. We can give due to our government by oserving the law rules or whatsoever, supporting the efforts of the government including paying exact tax that required us to give. God bless, Johnny Mt 22:15 ¶ Then went the Pharisees, and took counsel how they might entangle him in his talk. Mt 22:16 And they sent out unto him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that thou art true, and teachest the way of God in truth, neither carest thou for any man: for thou regardest not the person of men. Mt 22:17 Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not? Mt 22:18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye hypocrites? Mt 22:19 Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny. Mt 22:20 And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? Mt 22:21 They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's. Mt 22:22 When they had heard these words, they marvelled, and left him, and went their way. |

311 | Bootstrap Salvation? | Eph 2:8 | jlpangilinan | 63872 | ||
Hank, To those who claim that works is the ingredient for salvation, they usually back up thier claim with scriptures, some of those is this: Ec 12:14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Re 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. One of the statement of Paul the same apostle that taught the we have save by faith alone: 1Co 13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. Here they get the idea that even how deep is your faith as mentioned even you can removed mountain and have not charity, then we still nothing. Id like to get your comments on those verses.

312 | Divisions and translations | Bible general Archive 1 | jlpangilinan | 63802 | ||
Why we have division in christianity, because we are free to choose what is right according to the bible. Do you think if the religion taught things not in the bible and tell you to follow are still want to be in that religion.: pure religion anyway is not protestant or catolic as well: Jas 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. Division or having too many religion is the statement that what christ said to his desciples before is true Mt 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. Mt 10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. Mt 10:36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. Mt 10:37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. That is true when He said "man's foes shall be they of his own household." there are sometimes belongs to one family but has different denominations, for example me, my granparents in fatherside is pure catholic, my father when He grew up found a different religion that taught different from the catholic, and the family get mad in my father for his descision leaving catholic belief.

313 | Where doe God say he is Jesus? | Acts 9:1 | jlpangilinan | 63801 | ||
Because God the Father is different person from God the Son. Joh 1:1 ¶ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Joh 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God. Christ is the Begotten Son not God the Father. Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. God bless, Johnny |

314 | New Question and pre question | Is 63:16 | jlpangilinan | 63680 | ||
It is not recorded if they are married: Now Sarai Abram's wife bare him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar. Ge 16:2 And Sarai said unto Abram, Behold now, the LORD hath restrained me from bearing: I pray thee, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai. Ge 16:3 And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife. Regarding your other question: Ge 22:14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovahjireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen. |

315 | DIFFERENT NAMES FOR GOD | Is 63:16 | jlpangilinan | 63606 | ||
God the Father "Father" God the Son "Jesus Christ" In the hebrews scriptures it "YHWH" was found but there are no one live today how this word pronounced to moses: Jehovas withnesses said that "JEHOVAH is the name of God the father. But they also accepted in thier own books that even the jew never know this name. They also exaplain that they use JEHOVAH because of its popularity. Word Jehovah came out on 14th century it is also impossible that this is the correct name of God the Father because hebrews scriptures has no letter "J" which is the very start of the said name. And I dont believed that God only have His name on 14th century. YAHWEH is an addtional to "YHWH" because they cannot pronounce it correctly they put Y"A"HW"E"H "A" and "E" to read it YAWEH. The name of God the Father: Isa 63:16 Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting. In the new testament Jesus Christ simply called God the Father "our Father" or "My Father" not JehovaH not Yahweh. God bless, Johnny |

316 | Was Sept 11 an atrocity? | Josh 6:21 | jlpangilinan | 63434 | ||
Yes! you are getting the example of Jerecho. In the old testament it is true that God commanded Israel to wage war, to destroy the enemy of God. As we remember in the old testament only the Israel was the people of God other are idolaters, and other form of evil. But in the time of Christianity Christ give anyone the opportunity to be sons of God the death of Him in the cross give us the opportunity to have place in the salvation and promises to abraham.: Eph 2:12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: Eph 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. Eph 2:14 ¶ For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; Eph 2:15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; Eph 2:16 And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: After the death of Christ, all of the people of the world is consider people of God (if you believe in Christ) no partition anymore both jews and gentiles, so we are now considered brother and sister in Christ. So 9/11 attack is atrocity. God bless, Johnny |

317 | Door-to-door false teachers | Gal 1:8 | jlpangilinan | 63419 | ||
Read study the scriptures, in that way we know what are false teaching of todays prophets. If you now very well the bible then you can distinguise what teaching are false and what teaching is right! As apostle paul said: Ga 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. If anyone will tell you and teach you but not included in the scriptures, let them accursed! but how do we know that they teach us false teaching if we dont read the bible? So what we have to do is study the word of God. But the easiest things to depend aginst them is just say no to them! if they want to go to your house just say no! (Joke only) God bless, Johnny |

318 | polygamy? why did God allow it? | Matt 19:8 | jlpangilinan | 63333 | ||
Question is similar to the questions of Pharisees to our Lord Jesus Christ (dont be angry you are not pharisees anyway) Mt 19:7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away? Take a look at the answer of our Lord: Mt 19:8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so. Mt 19:5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Even in the old testament Give this commandment Ge 2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. But as Christ said becuase of the hardiness of the man hearts, but before it was not so. God bless, Johnny |

319 | I won"t be saved if I don't tithe | 2 Corinthians | jlpangilinan | 63331 | ||
Tithe is very important in the Jewish religion. Under the law of moses the israelites is commanded to give thier tithes to the levites: Nu 18:24 But the tithes of the children of Israel, which they offer as an heave offering unto the LORD, I have given to the Levites to inherit: therefore I have said unto them, Among the children of Israel they shall have no inheritance. But in the time of Jesus Christ we are no more under the law. In the new testament you cannot see any single teaching of Christ that will require us to give tithes to Him. Even the desciples has no single teaching that will require anyone to give tithes to them. The love offering that they taught in the new testament goes: 2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. No required amount but as the purposes of the heart. The authority of receving tithes was given to the levites and not for any pastors of today! Heb 7:5 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham: Tithes is included in the law of moses, according to paul we are not justified by the law of moses. Ac 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. God bless, Johnny |

320 | Question about Tyre | Is 23:1 | jlpangilinan | 63328 | ||
God directed the prophets to predict the distruction of Tyre so it will be known by man. Who give the prediction to the prophets anyway? who give them powers to predict the things that will happen in the future? it is God, if God dont know that Tyre will destroy in the future (times of the prophet) He cannot give the prediction to them that those things will happen. The wickedness and idolatry of this city are frequently denounced by the prophets, and its final destruction predicted (Isa 23:1; Jer 25:22; Eze 26:1-21; 28:1-19; Am 1:9-10; Zec 9:2-4) God bless, Johnny |
