Mat 13:54 And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works? Mat 13:55 Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? Mat 13:56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things? Mat 13:57 And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.

324 | what happened ? | Bible general Archive 2 | terrib | 110820 | ||
Dearest bloodofjesus, (Rom 11:28 KJV) As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes. Paul uses the term enemies here because they rejected The Christ. (Mat 12:30 KJV) He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad. You asked, "Also does the scriptures guarantee jews salvation even though they were cut off but can be grafted back on?" First of all: (Rom 2:28 KJV) For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: (Rom 2:29 KJV) But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. Paul uses the term "and not in the letter", meaning not necessarily through Abrahm. For God's chosen people were called stiff-necked, even as they came out of boundage from Egypt. They called Jesus a bastard and proclaim their haughtiness by Saying "We are of Abraham" (i.e. We know who our father is) because they new Mary was not married as yet to Joseph. (Rom 11:25 KJV) For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. (Rom 11:26 KJV) And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: (Rom 11:27 KJV) For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. (And this was fulfilled at the cross) Israel ( the people of the covenant) will be grafted back into the Root (Rom 11:23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again.) after "the fulness of the Gentiles" and as with all creatures, "whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved". (Note: "if they abide not still in unbelief") Blindness is still on many there for they do not regard the New Testament and are still waiting for the Messiah. And yet many have been grafted back into the Root for their faith in Christ. And seeing this we should see that That Day is closer now than when we first believed. Not all Gentiles will call upon the name of the Lord and so not all Israel will call upon the name of the Lord, but God has taken away their sin through Christ on the cross. All they have to do is accept that and they will be saved just like anyone else. But as to the "Total Nation of Israel" being saved (as some say) it is as with the great Exodus, not all entered into the promised land. It is through Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God, that they will be saved if they call upon Him. (Joh 14:6 KJV) Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. No one, Jew or Gentile, can enter the kingdom except through Christ. My Pastor used to have a saying, "Going to church does not make you a Christian anymore than standing in a garage makes you a Pontiac." terrib |

325 | How "mature" in Christ are we today? | 1 Cor 3:1 | terrib | 110815 | ||
Greetings, As in all growth and wisdom we each mature at a pace that we are willing. (Phi 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. ) We would have to take your question as rhetorical. For one can only look at oneself and the surroundings (which would include family, congregation, friends and the circles that one associates with) that we allow and are in. And as John wrote to the seven churches in Revelations about their state of affairs, we are not without fault. I must say though, Paul would probably not be so polite toward us as he was with the younger churches. (Luk 12:48 KJV) ... For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more. Luk 17:5 The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith!"

Hi cryst9m, Saul. (1Sa 31:9 NASB) They cut off his head and stripped off his weapons, and sent them throughout the land of the Philistines, to carry the good news to the house of their idols and to the people. (1Sa 31:10 NASB) They put his weapons in the temple of Ashtaroth, and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth-shan. (1Sa 31:11 NASB) Now when the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul, (1Sa 31:12 NASB) all the valiant men rose and walked all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth-shan, and they came to Jabesh and burned them there. (1Sa 31:13 NASB) They took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree at Jabesh, and fasted seven days. Peace terrib |

328 | Same day judgement? | Not Specified | terrib | 110743 | ||
Jewish laws concerning judgement. In my studies I have come across the following reference. T. Bab. Sanhedrin, fol. 35. 1. and 46. 1. Bemidbar Rabba, sect. 8. fol. 190. 1. My question is: Does this reference contain Jewish laws that says not to carry out judgement of two seperate crimes on the same day? If so, we see how much more the humiliation of Christ, in the eyes of the public, and the reference to Isa. 53:12 in placing Him as a common sinner. terrib |

Dear bloodofjesus, Greetings: In our travels through God's Word certain passages are opened to our understanding as God permits that we can grow and with that understanding we go on to other Graces that our Lord leads us to. Your last words were "babe in christ", and God and all the angels in heaven rejoyce in finding you. Getting to your post, Christianity was not taken to them by us, Chritianity started in Israel. But they rejected Jesus when He was there in their midst. They saw Him, touched Him, listened to Him and judged Him. It is not that they are wrong and we are right. The Gospel came to us because they rejected Him. If they had not, the Gentiles (in the scriptures, a pagan; a worshipper of false gods; any person not a Jew or a christian; a heathen), would be lost. And, if you are not of the Jewish heritage, would include you also. Therefore we give God all thanks for allowing this to come to pass. To learn more about the Grace that came to us may I suggest reading and studying Romans chapter 10 and 11. This will explain the affect that the Jewish rejection had on the rest of the world. God loves all His people and if He didn't offer a way of salvation to the entire world He would be a liar. After your studies are complete and you still have any questions, I know that the believers that follow this forum would be grateful if they could help you further. May I also suggest that in your studies you choose a Bible translation that best conforms to the gifts that our Lord has given you. Again, that is Romans chapter 10 and chapter 11. And, as always, ask God to open your mind to His Word. The Comforter (Holy Spirit) will lead you into all truth. And the key phrase here is "lead you" not "push you". May the wisdom of The Father come upon you. terrib |

331 | The Lord Jesus revealed? | 2 Thess 1:7 | terrib | 110698 | ||
Hi Ray, Just a follow up about: John Gill's Exposition of the Bible He preached in the same church as C. H. Spurgeon over one hundred years earlier. Yet most people today have never heard of John Gill. This is unfortunate, since his works contain priceless gems of information that are found nowhere except in the ancient writings of the Jews.

332 | The Lord Jesus revealed? | 2 Thess 1:7 | terrib | 110697 | ||
Hi Ray, Come now, let us reason together.. 2 Th 2:6 KJV And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. Let's disect this verse: "And now ye know", and now you know what? What I (Paul) just told you in the previous verses.(2 Th 2:3,4) "what withholdeth", the things that must come to pass before Christ's return. "that he might be revealed", who? the son of perdition. Allow me to paraphrase, extremely! 2 Th 2:1 Listen up brothers concerning the coming of Christ. 2 Th 2:2 Don't get up tight thinking that Christ is coming in the next few days. 2 Th 2:3 Don't believe that heresy. Apostasy must happen first then this anti-christ must set himself up and sit on earth in place of God. And all this takes quite some time. 2 Th 2:4 This son of perdition is full of unrighteousness which will become evident. 2 Th 2:5 Don't you remember I told this stuff last time I was there with you? 2 Th 2:6 Until all this happens, the apostasy, the setting up of a false church and this anti-christ's deceitful plan to become God on Earth, then this anti-christ will be revealed. (as he is now since we are discussing it here). 2 Th 2:7 This craftiness is now at work. And... (allow me to interject a commentary here): From 'John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible': "only he who now letteth, will let, until he be taken out of the way;...that is, the Roman empire and Roman emperors, and which were by degrees entirely removed, and so made way for the revelation of this wicked one: and which was done partly by Constantine the emperor receiving the Christian faith, whereby the Roman empire as Pagan ceased; and by increasing the riches of the church, and feeding the pride, ambition, and covetousness of the bishops, especially the bishop of Rome; and next by removing the seat of the empire from Rome to Byzantium, which he called Constantinople: here the Greek emperors continued in succession, and neither they themselves, nor even their exarchs, resided at Rome, but at Ravenna; so that way was made for antichrist to come to his seat, and there was nothing to rival and eclipse the grandeur, power, and glory of the Roman popes: and that which let was also taken out of the way, by the division of the empire, by Theodosius, giving to his elder son Arcadius, the eastern, and to the younger, Honorius, the western parts of it: the eastern empire was in process of time seized upon and possessed by Mahomet and the Saracens; and the western empire was overrun by the Goths, Vandals, and Huns, and became extinct about the year 476, in Augustulus, the last of the Roman emperors, who was obliged to abdicate the government by Odoacer king of the Heruli; when the kingdom of the Lombards took place in Italy, and afterwards that was translated to Charles the great, king of the French; so that there was nothing more of the Roman empire remaining than the bare name, as at this day; and by this means the popes of Rome got to the height of their power and glory, which is meant by the revelation of the man of sin." So, after all that: 2Th 1:7 KJV And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his (His) mighty angels, 2Th 2:6 KJV And now ye know what (not whom) withholdeth (the things to come - time) that he (satanic) might be revealed in his (satanic) time. 2Th 2:7 KJV For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he (Roman references) who now letteth (restrains or stands in the way) will let, until he (Roman references) be taken out of the way. (Paul was not ashamed of the gospel or the consequences of preaching the gospel and if he meant the Holy Spirit here he would have said so. And the church at Thessalonica was young and Paul would have explained explicitly what he meant because they misread the first epistle concerning the time of Christ's coming.) Other versions: 2Th 2:6 (ASV) And now ye know that which restraineth, to the end that he may be revealed in his own season. (CEV) You already know what is holding this wicked one back until it is time for him to come. (ISV) You know what it is that is now holding him back, so that he will be revealed when his time comes. (KJV) And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. (KJVA) And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. (MKJV) And now you know what holds back, for him to be revealed in his own time. Hope this helps. Forgive me for being so lengthy, but I thought others may be reading this and it may also needs some explanation. Peace, Love You Brother terrib |

334 | The Lord Jesus revealed? | 2 Thess 1:7 | terrib | 110612 | ||
Ray, 2Th 1:7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, In this verse I see Paul exhorting the church to stand and wait for the end of their tribulation when they all will be reunited at Jesus's coming. 2Th 2:6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. 2Th 2:7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. In these verses I see Paul exhorting the church that - in time - the anti-christ will be revealed when - that time - is right but, be aware that the work of the devil is already at hand and is working within the church. Again the church finds corruption brewing within herself: 1. The Pharasees at the Temple in Jerusalem; 2. Judas within the twelve; 3. The papacy at Rome As with our fight for our salvation it seems that our worst enemy always comes from within. The flesh within us and the infiltration of deceit and gile in the church. (Mat 26:41 MKJV) Watch and pray that you enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. Peace terrib |

335 | will we go thru the tribulation | Rev 3:10 | terrib | 110533 | ||
Dear uniqueone, There is much controversy on this subject. There are also other threads on this forum about tribulation. So listed below are the Scriptures in the KJV Bible that contain the word tribulation. If you study all the verses and the context into which they are given you will have a clearer understanding. I know these will help. Caution must be taken that men's books do not sway your understanding. (Deu 4:30 KJV) When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the LORD thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice; (Jdg 10:14 KJV) Go and cry unto the gods which ye have chosen; let them deliver you in the time of your tribulation. (1Sa 26:24 KJV) And, behold, as thy life was much set by this day in mine eyes, so let my life be much set by in the eyes of the LORD, and let him deliver me out of all tribulation. (Mat 13:21 KJV) Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. (Mat 24:21 KJV) For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. (Mat 24:29 KJV) Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: (Mar 13:24 KJV) But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, (Joh 16:33 KJV) These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. (Act 14:22 KJV) Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God. (Rom 2:9 KJV) Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; (Rom 5:3 KJV) And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; (Rom 8:35 KJV) Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? (Rom 12:12 KJV) Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; (2Co 1:4 KJV) Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. (2Co 7:4 KJV) Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my glorying of you: I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation. (1Th 3:4 KJV) For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know. (2Th 1:6 KJV) Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you; (Rev 1:9 KJV) I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. (Rev 2:9 KJV) I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. (Rev 2:10 KJV) Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. (Rev 2:22 KJV) Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. (Rev 7:14 KJV) And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Peace terrib |

336 | Water, baptism and John 3:5/Titus 3:5 | John 3:5 | terrib | 110444 | ||
Dear Huron, You are correct, John 3:5 has nothing to do with water baptisim. The subject of the dicussion between Jesus and Nicodemus is birth, not baptism (or works). And the explanation of John 3:5 is in John 3:6, first birth is of the flesh (water, thus the term "my water broke") and the second birth (spirit) is of the Spirit. This is a prime example of taking things "out of context". Nicodemus sets up the dialog by asking, John3:4 "... can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?" And staying with that subject, fleshly birth or mother's womb, Jesus responds with ""Except a man be born of water"...(that fleshly first birth from the womb)". No water baptism is implied but there is a renewal or a regeneration involved by the Spirit. Peace terrib |

338 | where can i find lilith in bible | Gen 5:4 | terrib | 110244 | ||
Hi lola, The name Lilith has not come up on a search in the Scriptures. Where did you get the name? The Lord told Adam and Eve to be fruitful and mutliply. At the time there where no laws given for marrying ones sister. The commandment was to be fruitful and multiply. Adam lived 800 years after he had Seth. (Gen 5:4) And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: Not only after the birth of Seth, but before, though we have no account of any, unless of Cain's wife; but what their number was is not certain, either before or after; some say he had thirty children, besides Cain, Abel, and Seth; and others a hundred. Josephus says the number of children, according to the old tradition, was thirty three sons and twenty three daughters. (These families had at least five children, for one son is named as well as other sons and daughters. Therefore there must be at least three sons and two daughters in each family. For a family to have at least three sons and two daughters, according to the laws of chance, a family must on the average have nine children for this to be a near certainty. Hence the families listed in this chapter must have been large by today's standards. Given their long life, this is not at all unusual. However even today, the Old Order Mennonites of Waterloo County in Ontario and Lancaster County in Pennsylvannia, have many families this large.)

339 | Is cremation right for believers? | Bible general Archive 2 | terrib | 110175 | ||
Ken John, I agree with EdB in post # 110165. There is not found any direct commandment or law for this, only tradition. But, you, not this forum or anyone else can tell you what to do concerning this matter. Any support or answers you might find here is for your consideration, only. Therefore, I would truly bring it before the Lord and let Him reveal what He would have you to do. If you get no answer or you are not sure of the answer, then I would say do not. I say that only for the fact that you have brought up the subject so you must have concerns of right or wrong. This is very personal in your life and should be considered carefully. If you are in doubt, then don’t. (Rom 14:23) “ …for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.” Paul says that all things are lawful, but not always the best thing to do. It may be that others involved in this type ceremony may be offended. That is why Paul says we should not put a stumbling block in front of one that may be weaker in their faith. You may want to ask if any would be offended. (1Co 10:32-33) Give no occasions of stumbling, either to Jews, or to Greeks, or to the church of God: even as I also please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of the many, that they may be saved. Personally, there is no offense in cremation, but for conscience sake, burial. If there is a monetary problem, however your heart decides, God will supply your need. Be of good cheer, the Comforter will lead you into all truth. Possibly some things are silent in the Scriptures so that we will have more incentive to come to the Throne of Grace. Peace |
