Some scholars believe He was speaking about the Mount of Transfiguration in which Peter was privileged to see.

383 | Can prayer change perfect will of God? | Ps 115:3 | Val | 194962 | ||
We are told from the bible that God desires a relationship with us. In reading in Genesis you will see the relationship He has with Adam and Eve and if you follow that through you will see how He keeps covenant, we call it a legal, binding agreement. The bible is full of stories of how the Creator desires a relationship with His creation and how He loves us. He also tells us about His Son who He sent to die for us so that we could have a relationship with Him. He sent His Son to rescue us and deliver us from the bondage we have in sin and death to give us eternal life and peace in Him. He desires that we love and trust and obey Him. When we do that our will conforms to His will. I would suggest you start a study program on "How to Pray" by Kay Arthur and get a copy of the NASB Inductive Study Bible that has instructions at the beginning of each chapter helping you to study the bible and understand its meaning. Hope this helps. | ||||||
384 | Can a christian go to hell? | 1 Corinthians | Val | 194961 | ||
"Matt 5:1 When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up on the mountain; and after He sat down, His disciples came to Him. Matt 5:2 He opened His mouth and began to teach them, saying,..." Please note that the text says He saw the crowds and his disciples sat down with Him and He began to teach them. Since he was teaching both the crowds and his disciples, it cannot be assumed that everyone He was teaching were His followers (christians) at that time. I suggest the book "How to study the bible" by Kay Arthur and the NASB Inductive Study Bible. Hope this helps. |

386 | covering heaven with a cloud? | Bible general Archive 4 | Val | 194901 | ||
It would be better if you would provide the verse and we could see what you are talking about. If you don't know where the verse is, how can you draw a conclusion without first observing the text. | ||||||
387 | Why is pride a sin? | Proverbs | Val | 194899 | ||
When trying to understand a topic, one of the ways to discover the meaning of a word and its use is to look it up in in its context in the bible and see how it is used. For instance, to the right you will see under "Get Bible Text" a place to "Search word". After entering the word "pride" and click on "Search" a series of verses come up from the bible. To the left of the verse you will see "I","N', and "C". Clicking on the "I" will bring up the defination of the word as it is used in the context. You will see that pride is translated different ways depending on the context. This is essential in trying to understand the meaning. As you look at different verses where pride is used you will get an understanding of what the Lord is conveying in the verse. Pride in the sense of satisfaction with making a good grade is not a bad thing. We do have joy when we do good in our studies. As you study the word pride, you will see as in the case of Nebuchadnezzer - it is when we leave God out of the equation that is a type of pride that sets its self up against our creator in the sense of saying or thinking we don't need Him or we can make it without Him. As you see in Nebuchadnezzer's case, he says I built this and exalted his own self importance. God had to bring him down to show him that all he had was given to him by God. So in conclusion I would say if you acknowledge that God is the one who gave you your abilities and talents and praise and thank Him for the good grades - you will be doing the right thing. I suggest reading the entire Chapter of Daniel 4 to see how Nebuchadnezzar himself explains how God dealt with him concerning his pride. Dan 4:37 "Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise, exalt and honor the King of heaven, for all His works are true and His ways just, and He is able to humble those who walk in pride." |

388 | If God said in the ten commandments "Tho | Lev 26:1 | Val | 194807 | ||
Since you did not list a scripture reference I will give you one: Lev 26:1 'You shall not make for yourselves idols, nor shall you set up for yourselves an image or a sacred pillar, nor shall you place a figured stone in your land to bow down to it; for I am the LORD your God. The key to understanding the verse is in what you do with the image. It says not to bow down to it. In other words don't worship it as a god. Wearing crosses is for decorative purposes. |

Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteromy. Deut 31:26 "Take this book of the law and place it beside the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may remain there as a witness against you. A word search to the right on covenant will bring up verses that might help you. |

391 | God being totally committed to man | Bible general Archive 4 | Val | 194780 | ||
To the right you will see a section called Get Bible Text. Under the Search word section you can type a topic and pull up the verses to support it. I would suggest words such as but not limited to: God, man, covenant, promise, commitment. Since this is a general question you may find what you are looking for in the verses that come up for that word. If you have further questions regarding a particular context, we can provide more specific answers. Hope this helps. | ||||||
392 | ghosts? | Bible general Archive 4 | Val | 194778 | ||
A good scripture to study might be where Paul talks with the people at Athens who were very intelligent. Read Acts 17:15-34 and see how Paul interacts with these people. My point being in Acts 17:21 (Now all the Athenians and the strangers visiting there used to spend their time in nothing other than telling or hearing something new.) Notice how Paul steers the conversation back to Christ. As you see in the last part of the chapter some began to sneer but some believed then Paul moved on. I take from this chapter that we can spend time with people telling them the gospel but not waste time with things other than the gospel. The gospel should be our main focus and bringing the conversation back to it is our aim. Then people have a choice - some believe, some do not, then we move on. Our commission is to sow the seed, God gives the increase. |

394 | Bye | Bible general Archive 4 | Val | 194762 | ||
Cheri, I have been praying for your request. I thought about answering your post and frankly did not know whether I should or not because more people see it if it is not answered and are reminded to pray when they log on. I thought that was the best decision to leave it as is. Since this is not a chat room, we are limited in our interaction and are to remain in a more conservative, professional mode. Personally I have made it my policy not to sign any petitions at all, period. So please do not take it as a personal uncaring sign. Please forgive me for seeming cold by not responding to you but know that I have prayed for your friends. God will work it out, we must trust Him. There are sometimes in our lives when He is the only One who can comfort us. I am thinking this might be one of those times for you. I have heard about this matter in the news and it is so sad that a few who break the rules ruin it for everyone else. That is the way of life I have found. Deep hurt and pain. You are my sister in Christ and please accept my apology and know I will continue to pray for you and your friends. Maranatha | ||||||
395 | what does the darkness refer to? | John 1:5 | Val | 194726 | ||
John is using figurative speech here. The Lord Jesus is the Light. "A metaphor is an implied comparison between two things which are different...." " An example is John 6:48 where the Lord Jesus says, "I am the bread of life." Looking at John 1:4 "In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men." Then look at John 1:12 "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name, John 1:13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God." Looking at John 1:10 "He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. John 1:11 He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him." Therefore those who did not receive Him are still in darkness. I would say darkness in this context is the world system that is under Satan's control. Eph 2:1 "And you were dead in your trespasses and sins, Eph 2:2 in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, of the spirit that is now working in the sons of disobedience." The Lord Jesus came to rescue us and deliver us out of the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light. Reading on in John you see that John admonishes us to walk as children of light not as children of darkness. |

396 | where is the (signs) located at | Luke 1:1 | Val | 194698 | ||
The miracles that Jesus performed are considered signs. They start with turning water into vine, healing the sick and raising the dead. Look in the back of your bible at the concordance and see if you find the references. Hope this helps. The gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John is the suggested reading for these. | ||||||

398 | ... | Deut 4:29 | Val | 194531 | ||
If you really want to know about the concept as you say then you can do a study of the attributes of God. You could start with what the bible says about Him. You could start with words like holy, justice, impartial. Any topics you desire. If you truly want to know Him, you will find Him when you seek Him with all your heart. | ||||||
