401 | I dont want to divorce. | Bible general Archive 3 | lionheart | 157229 | ||
markisredeemed, Greetings and welcome to the forum. I am relatable to what you are dealing with now. Yes adultry is grounds for divorce,but understand Jesus also told us that divorce was because of the hardness of mans heart. Marriage is a representation of Gods relationship with us his church. To those who remain faithful that relationship is eternal.God wants us with him forever. So it is with marriage,God intends for it to be for good. God has forgiven us so He wants us to forgive each other. Divorce is not etched in stone here there can be forgiveness between the two of you. That is ideally what God wants us to do. Many times we have the mistaken idea that when God forgives us when we come to him with our sin that the consequences go away that may not always be true,there are times when that does happen,but either way God loves us and will take care of us.What is important for you now is that you stay close to God,seek godly council from the brothers who are strong in the Lord,let the changes you are making in your life be evident to those who are in your life. Your wife will need time to heal and get her heart right with God. In the meen time leave it in Gods hands and ask for faith and perserverence.God always works things for the best,His and ours. Romans 8:29. I recomend also that you go back and read Matt 5:31,32 again. In Christ, lionheart |

402 | baptist church | NT general Archive 1 | lionheart | 157057 | ||
Grettings and welcome to the forum, Acts 2:38 Romans 10:9,10 In answer to the first part of your question, The bible tells us specificly what it takes be part of Gods Church. There is only one way to be part of the Churuch. Gods Church is made up of born again saved disciples of Jesus Christ. Going to church every Sunday and warming a pew or bench never makes one part of any church or fellowship. God has made simple for us.We just gotta be willing to beiieve and obey God and His Word. In Christ, lionheart |

403 | What does the Bible say about marijuana? | 1 Cor 10:31 | lionheart | 156714 | ||
Brother brother, Galatians 5:19,20 the Greek word pharmekia is used in reference to witchcraft,the greek word also infers the usage of drugs in the practice of witch craft. Pharmekia is where we derive the word pharmecy today. In Gal 5:19,20,21 Paul says that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom. Now with that in mind I'll share this. I'm a recovering alcaholic/addict myself with almost sixteen years clean and sober at the present. I know when I was using I definitly was not close to God. If anything I was leaving myself open to some really nasty stuff.Using any kind of illicit drug will only get you used.I know this one thing today,I dont need any artificial stimulation to have the Holy Spirit working in my life. In Christ, lionheart |

404 | Is the image of the cross from God? | NT general Archive 1 | lionheart | 156652 | ||
deep input, Greetings and welcome to the forum. The greek word staros is and can be translated upright pale or stake and the Gospels and Epistles make numerous references to the cross, as you read the gospels and epistles the only rendering you will see is cross. There is also the greek word xylon which is rendered tree on I beleive 4 or 5 times. Also find yourself a good Bible dictionary it will be a good resource in researching the cross and crucifxion. Now as to having or wearing a cross my only question I would have here is your focus on the cross itself or He who died on it? I dont think you have a problem here. Pray and let God work with your heart and if this is something God convicts you about then act accordingly. In Christ, lionheart |

405 | what is faith | Matt 1:1 | lionheart | 156631 | ||
llombardo2, Grettings and welcome to the forum.Read Hebrews chapter 11 and James chapter 2. Both of these scriptures give a clear picture of faith and what it is and what it is not.I pray that this will clarify things for you. I could tell you in my own words,but there are certain things where Gods Word will say it better than we ever could. In Christ, lionheart |

406 | forgiven without repenting? | Eph 4:32 | lionheart | 156606 | ||
mikegold, Greetings and welcome to the forum.Our forgiving others is not dependent on a persons repentance,we forgive because God has forgiven us.It's what God has commanded us to do.Jesus tells us that if we dont forgive that God will not forgive us. In Christ, lionheart |

408 | Love,courtship and Fashion? | Heb 3:13 | lionheart | 155963 | ||
cayra, Grettings.The world has such a skewed view of dating.I'ts about finding a mate (the one) or someone that we can live with. As christians we gotta forget that.Heb 3:13 But encourage one another daily as long as it is called today,so that none of you may be hardened by sins's deceitfulness.Dating in the kingdom is about encouraging one another, helping each other make it to heaven.Don't get me wrong,if one goe's on dates eventually we will find an interest and it will be a pure relationship,one that will draw you both closer to God.God truly wants to bless his people,it's gotta be on his terms. Matt 6:33 we must keep God first at all times,when we do that God will and can grant us the desires of our hearts. In Christ, lionheart |

409 | Jesus Christ has been ‘buddy-ized’ | 2 Tim 2:15 | lionheart | 155860 | ||
Brother kalos, I'm with you on this one.This is something I've posted on on more than one ocassion.I listen to numerous individuals who preach a cheap get rich quick grace,and what really hurts is that a lot of people buy into it. There is nothing cheap about it. Our salvation cost God his dearest blood and people are being lulled to sleep with a waterd down feel good theology.I remember my first posting to the forum, I mentioned how a big effort to weed God out this nations everyday life.We hear how the church is being persecuted in other parts of the world,our turn is comming and we better get committed to being 2 Timothy 2:15 disciples of Jesus Christ and standing firm on Gods Word or a lot of us will not make it. Thanx for your post I think it's something that can no longer be ignored. In Christ, lionheart |

411 | Such thing as a Christian Witch? | Lev 19:31 | lionheart | 155814 | ||
rujin312, This one area that you would do well to leave alone. Read the above listed scripture.Check out Exodus 22:18. God is very specific when it comes to the subject of witchcraft.There is no room for debate on this one.Dont let the devil decieve you on this one,he's a master counterfiter.It may look good,but in the end it's still counterfit and an out and out lie. Read Romans chapter 1 it will help give you a better understanding of things and a better mindset in dealing with this. You dont want to open the door on this,it may well be one you wont be able to close.Dont compromise on Gods Word, to do so not only endangers you but also those who are in your life. We dont need to play with matches to know we'll get burned if we're not careful.There is no being careful,you will get burned and it's gonna be painfull.If your looking for closure get close to God in prayer,spend much time in the Word and fellowship with believers who are strong in the faith.In this way you can and will find closure to what ever you struggling with now. In Christ, lionheart |

Dear friend, You ask some major questions here,and that's good because it shows you are looking.Here are afew things to help and encourage. 1.Gods Word is the greatest proof we have 2 Timothy 3:16- All scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching,rebuking,correcting,and training in righteousness,that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. 2. Every one has an opinion but it is Gods Word that is the absolute authority and we cantake God at his Word 2 Peter 1:20,21. 3. Read the gospels,look at what Jesus told the theif on the cross, Lk 23:43- I tell you the truth,today you will be with me in paradise.John 3:16-For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,that whoever believes shall not perish but have eternal life. You can count on this,The promises of God are rock solid,when you put your faith and trust in God you will never be put to shame. Keep in touch and let us know how you are doing.

413 | ON JOHN 15:18-19 NEED HELP | Eph 2:1 | lionheart | 154331 | ||
Dear IN2JESUS, Read Ephesians chapter 2 with attention to vs 1-10.While we may live in this world we are no longer of it.When we became disciples of Jesus Christ we changed citizenship.When refering to the world we oft times refering to the nonbelieving. When Gods people take a stand we will encounter opposition. Jesus told his diciples to expect this.Paul even tells us in 2 Timothy 3:12 that as we seek to live godly lives in Christ Jesus that we will be persecuted. Paul even tells us that to those who are perishing that this all foolishness.So dont be to shocked when people start throwing the junk your way,just remember Colossians 1:27 that it's Christ in you the hope of glory! In Christ, lionheart |

HolyT, God bless you brother and welcome to the forum.You and I have more in common than you know.I'm a veteran of 16 years in the Navy myself.It's a blessing to see another brother in arms standing strong in the faith.I think you pretty effectively answered your question here.I agree with you,the vast majority of the translations of the bible we refer to are quite accurate.Check out my most recent post it covers some pretty important ground. God went to great lengths to make sure his Word was preserved throughout the ages.2Peter 1:3 tells us that God has given us all things pertaining to life and godliness. I think your in pretty good shape my brother. PS. You can find my e-mail address in my user profile. It would be good to hear from you. In Christ, lionheart |

420 | Divorce: believer or unbeliever | Matt 19:8 | lionheart | 153584 | ||
Good day my brother, This is an issue that has raised countless questions and speculation .Matthew 19:8-12 I refer back to this passage of scripture because our Lord lays some pretty solid ground work regarding divorce and marriage. Jesus states plainly here the only reason divorce was permitted was because of peoples hard hearts.Notice that he also states that this isnt the way it was in the beginning.Our Lord had it down cold when it came to relationships. Check out 2 Cor. 6:14 and then come back and read 1 Cor 7:10-17. The impression I get here is that we are talking about the unsaved.Not always easy but simple enough to understand and with Gods guidance make some sence of. In Christ, lionheart |
