341 | Does God have wings? | Bible general Archive 2 | BradK | 150598 | ||
Hi Danny, As you seem to be shouting to be heard, could you please take some time to explain yourself? As you quote "IF YOU BELIEVE THAT THE BIBLE IS THE END OF GOD'S WORK THAN THERE IS NO REASON TO LIVE TODAY. THAT IS COMPLETLY CONTRARY TO THE TEACHINGS OF THE BIBLE" Could you provide some "teachings of the bible" that would back up your opinions? To say something is one matter. To provide proof and back up one's assertions is quite another! Please take some time to read and understand what this Study Bible Forum is all about. You might want to review the "Terms of Use" so as to familiarize yourself a bit. I think it would help:-) Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

342 | Does God have wings? | Bible general Archive 2 | BradK | 150619 | ||
Hi Danny, Not that it matters particularly, but it is not my intent to "chase you around" and argue with anything you say. I'm just trying to be direct in my communication to you in hopes you'll clue me as to where you're coming from. ( feel free to see my user profile if you'd like) It is just that this is a Study Bible Forum and to date, in your 20 plus posts, you've offered little more than just your opinion! You've given no solid basis for any of your contentions other than what you say. Maybe this doesn't matter to you:-) Danny, opinions are a dime a dozen so -to-speak. What matters- and what I'm trying to impress upon you- is that there is a higher standard required on the Forum if you desire to be taken seriously. That is why I again implore you to check the guidelines out to see if your expectations and the purpose of this Forum are in agreement. I think you'll find it "smoother sailing" if they are. That's all. We only help each other if both of us clearly understands and knows where the other one is coming from. Truth is what matters, not opinion or speculation. My standard is the Word of God in accord with 2 Tim. 3:16. Would you agree with John 17:17 that Gods' Word is the sole source of truth for the faith and practice of believers? If not, could you be specific in your response? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

343 | why go to a doctor for healing | Bible general Archive 2 | BradK | 150903 | ||
Hi Jorja, Your opinion regarding Doctors is interesting and I have no problem there. However, your unqualified statement that "As faith grows you will need medical assistance less and less until one day not at all" seems to be lacking scriptural foundation? Can you provide any? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

344 | why go to a doctor for healing | Bible general Archive 2 | BradK | 151220 | ||
Hi Jorja, We may have to disagree on this matter:-) I'm going to guess that you're not a medical Doctor, because I think your advice may be seriously errant! In all seriousness, may I enquire: 1. have you ever been sick or seen a doctor? be honest:-); 2. Many of the scriptures you cited I'm familiar with but you have completely ignored the context. I would agree that Gods' Word is sufficient for our faith and practice. However, that is a long stretch from checking our minds out and ignoring those that God may have placed to assist us medically, don't you think? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

345 | The Bible written in code ? | Bible general Archive 2 | BradK | 152145 | ||
Hi meusing, Just a comment or two on your statement. If I understand you correctly, you're painting with a very broad brush, brother:-) 1. Scripture nowhere says that all will believe or that all who read scripture will either. Christ spoke to this in John 5:39-40, "Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life."; 2. kalos' example of Michael Drosnin, the author of the Bible code speaks for itself; 3. Empirically we know this is not the case! Look around us at those who diligently study the scriptures, from the JW's to the Mormans and even liberal theologians. Life is in Christ, not the scriptures alone! Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Hi meusing, You didn't open up a can of worms on my end:-) I have seen Bishop Spngs' book on the shelf. In my opinion, it's not worth the paper its' written on! Sadly, there's a market for his fodder:-( Spong is clearly a very liberal "christian" who denies all the cardinal doctrines of the faith- Orthodoxy. His agenda is basically that there are many valid ways to God. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

347 | Can I buy NASB studybibleforum program? | Bible general Archive 2 | BradK | 153072 | ||
Hi Serynn, You may be referring to the NASB Electronic Bible Library? I have it, and it's a very good basic Bible Study tool. I hope this helps, BradK |

348 | StudyBibleForum.com program | Bible general Archive 2 | BradK | 153081 | ||
Hi Serynn, You can just post a reply to my answer instead of asking a new question:-) I'm not sure the NASB Electronic Bible library is exactly what you're looking for. It does have the capability to add personal notes, but its' format is not that of the SBF. You might want to e-mail Lockman for specifics. The cost for the NASB program is around 49.00. I have it on my computer at work and it's still a very helpful, albeit basic Bible Library! I hope this helps, BradK |

350 | Where should I turn?????? | Bible general Archive 2 | BradK | 154441 | ||
First off, I'd stop calling people Shirley! Then, I'd stop reposting after being revoked. That's just being dishonest, but seems to be the modus operandi of the Watchtower Organization. Finally, I'd believe in the Lord, Jesus Christ, the true God and the one to whom belongs salvation. (1 John 5:20) Incidentally, Christianity is not a religion, its' a personal relationship with the living God. As for me and my house, we'll serve the Lord. BradK |

351 | BIBLE (mens ) FAULTS | Bible general Archive 2 | BradK | 155283 | ||
obi, It is not my intent to be overtly sarcastic, but it sounds like the "Force" is with you and that your theology smacks more of Star Wars than anything else! Your remarks are more fitting with science fiction than Biblical theology. I'm going to be very direct: Your comments are pure opinion and speculation. I mean, why even bother? I certainly don't take them as serious in the least! Anybody can say or state anything. Talk is cheap! Not that I care particularly, but can you offer some sound, rational basis, i.e proof for what you claim? Please back up what you're saying or don't bother wasting Forum time and space. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

353 | is there gender in the spirit? | Bible general Archive 1 | BradK | 52824 | ||
Hi Nathaniel, The Spirit is described in personal terms grammatically. The Greek word for Spirit(pneuma) is nueter in gender(which means it's neither male nor female). However, the Bible uses masculine pronouns(He, Him) to refer to the Spirit(Jn 16:13-14, 15:26; 16:7-8). See also, John 14:26 and Rom.8:26,29 where we see the Spirit act in personal ways. I hope this helps. Yours In Christ, BradK |

Dea Edb, I'll belatedly echo your support of Hank. He has been and is right on in his proclamation of Gods' word! It is beginning to appear that Grace and Truth is a misnomer. Let me add that ACTION always speaks louder than words. Yours In Christ, BradK |

355 | Brand new out of date NASB? | Bible general Archive 1 | BradK | 55378 | ||
A series of good points made regarding Christian literature. We are inceasingly becoming "junk food" Christians as was noted by Justme. I found a quote by Miles Stanford in The Complete Green Letters that is pertinent. In the chapter titled, Life Via Literature he writes,"The good has always been the enemy of His best. No books can replace the Book, and only those of the highest caliber can assist in opening its treasures. Therefore, seek the best and shun the secondary". Speaking the Truth In Love, BradK |

356 | Welcome To New Guidelines | Bible general Archive 1 | BradK | 62638 | ||
Hank, I too would like to thank you for your wise words of wisdom on this matter. I believe our overiding principle should be that found in James 3:5-12. We do need to watch our toungues for the sake of others. Allow me to share some insight on this subject that is on my heart. Hopefully, I'm not just preaching to the choir! As a business owner for the past 15 years, I've dealt with and continue to interact with a significant number of people on a daily basis. One of the timeless classics that has helped me in this area is How To Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. Thought it is obviously a non-Biblical source, I believe he offers some sound advice when it comes to avoiding arguments: 1. Welcome the disagreement. 2. Distrust your first instinctive impression. 3. Control your temper. 4. Listen first. 5. Look for areas of agreement. 6. Be honest. 7. Promise to think over your opponents' ideas and study them carefully. 8. Thank your opponents sincerely for their interest. 9. Postpone action to give both sides time to think through the problem. As Proverbs 9:9 states, "Give instruction to a wise man and he will be still wiser,Teach a righteous man and he will increase in learning". Speaking the Truth In Love, BradK |

357 | Why is yoga bad, please back up with scr | Bible general Archive 1 | BradK | 63665 | ||
Dear Winfieldd, Without repeating what has been said by others, let me offer some additional wisdom from scripture. EdB already mentioned Phil. 4:8 which would be my initial reference. In Proverbs 22:17 it says,"Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise,And apply your MIND to My knowledge". Romans 12:2 says,"And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your MIND, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect". And finally, in 2 Cor 10:5 "...destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and taking every THOUGHT captive to the obedience of Christ". Again, though there is no direct scriptural prohibition against Yoga I would caution that "we wrestle not against flesh and blood...against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places" (Eph.6:12). Satan is very real and can influence someone who opens their mind to his system. Because of that, we need to always be on guard. Hope this helps in some way. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

359 | Can we loose our salvation | Bible general Archive 1 | BradK | 67022 | ||
In response to this question there have been several excellent posts. All I would add with these above referenced verses would be to make sure you consider the context. That is crucial. Is the scripture under consideration speaking of or dealing with salvation? I think with this in mind, the majority of given references are not:-) Consider the following words:Does "falling away","leaving", being "cast away" or "turning aside", etc. equate with losing salvation? Those are the questions to study and answer. Speaking the Truth In Love, BradK |

360 | What does Bible teach on election? | Bible general Archive 1 | BradK | 67836 | ||
Dear Richard1, Even though scripture most certainly teaches election and that we are predestined (Rom 8:29,30), this is not an easy question to answer. The apostle Paul gives us the answer by his own actions, in that he went on three missionary journeys. We are also admonished to share in Romans 10:14-15. I hope this helps. Speaking the Truth In Love, BradK |
