44 | love wanderful | 2 Sam 1:26 | InGodITrust | 187930 | ||
Qhycrme1, Are you familiar with the relationship between David and Jonathan? Jonathan was King Saul's son and had stuck by David while his father King Saul was out to kill David. Jonathn risked his own life time after time by his loyal love for David. There was never anything remotely inappropriate about their relationship. This is in no way a down cast upon women. It was simply a statement that tried to explain David's tremendous respect and love for all that Jonathan had done. You see, normally, Jonathan would have been in line for the throne, but God had appointed David as the next King. Just think about what kind of man Jonathan must have been by being loyal to whom God appointed! Does this answer your question? In our Lord, InGodITrust |

45 | if he is cursing 'cause the Lord said to | 2 Sam 16:1 | InGodITrust | 191121 | ||
Everyoneisjedidiah, Very good question. One that would be very puzzling indeed in King James, or whatever, unless one has a Bible with commentary in the margins. This is an excellent example of David's humility and genuine heart of God. Whenever we are assaulted wrongly and show grace and kindness, as well as forgiveness we are demonstrating the very heart of God. They call it Agape Love..... David the King had absolute power. Most Kings I assure you would have had the man executed on the spot with full authority and no one would question the King. Not only that they would have condoned it completely. David, fully aware of his own personal sins, humbled himself to the very idea that God may indeed be speaking through this man Shimei. What a beautiful picture of Christ Himself. Though wrongly accused, just as Jesus was, he uttered no threats,had all power, and suffered a wrong without the thought of retaliation. God bless you for bring to our attention a magnificent example to the body of Christ. InGodITrust |

47 | Is it a sin to be cremated after you die | Psalm | InGodITrust | 189043 | ||
cheruboverme, Well I certainly hope not. I just lost my wife of 20years and we decided to cremate. Couldn't decide whether to bury her in Oklahoma or here in Colorado. Her family is in Oklahoma and myself, 2 sons, her daughter and family in Colorado. So, what do we do? Oklahoma means we would have to drive 450 miles to see her. Colorado means they would have the same distance. We opted for cremation and brought her home. Any family member who would like to have some of her ashes in a special urn or whatever can have her with them where ever they are. It may seem gross to some but my wife and my sons Mother "is sitting on the coffee table." There is no Biblical position whatever. When the resurrection occurs God will put them in their new body no matter what the condition. The body is just a store house while here on earth. Hope this helps, God bless, InGodITrust |

48 | Israelites first going to Heaven | Psalm | InGodITrust | 189109 | ||
Lupuschick, Good afternoon, Here's what I found on the web; Question: I was recently asked the question about the promise of Heaven. They asked is there any place in the Old Testament that mentions the promise of Heaven? Did the patriarchs even consider such a hope? The only thing that I thought of was Jobs statement in Job 14:14 - "If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come." (KJV) If you or any one else can help me with this question I would be grateful. Response: There is not a lot in the Old Testament about heaven except to say that it is the abode of God. When someone died in the Old Testament he went to Sheol, the heart of the earth. When Samuel appeared to Saul, we see him coming up out of the earth (1 Sam. 28:12-15). Even when Jesus died he went to the heart of the earth (Matt. 12:40: Acts 2:27; Rom. 10:7; Eph. 4:9; 1 Peter 3:18-19). It seems that Sheol (aka the Underworld, Abyss, Deep, Hades) was compartmentalized into a place of torment and a place of comfort according to our Lord's story of the rich man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31). My belief is that a believer could not go directly into the presence of God until Jesus actually paid for the sins of the world in time. However, now when a believer dies he goes directly to be with the Lord (Acts 7:59; 2 Cor. 5:8; Phi. 1:20-23). There are a few allusions and several clear references to a resurrection in the Old Testament (Job 14:7-15; 19:26; Psa. 16:9-11; 49:14-15; 73:23-26 Isa. 25:8; 53:12 and especially Isa. 26:19; Dan. 12:2, 13; Hos. 13:14), but the Old Testament does not say much about what was expected afterwards. However we do read in the New Testament that Abraham "looked for a city . . . . whose builder and maker is God" (Heb. 11:10). I understand this to refer to the New Jerusalem (Rev. 3:12; 21:2 also John 14:1-3), which is the ultimate dwelling place of the child of God, or what we would call "heaven." http://www.apostolic.net/biblicalstudies/otheaven.htm Hope this helps, InGodITrust |

49 | Comforting verse for non-believers | Psalm | InGodITrust | 189112 | ||
Azure, So sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. I truly understand your heart felt desire to comfort the family. At the moment, if the entire family are not Christians,"what can you say?" I lost my wife May 6th and most of her (Teena) family think they know God but do not. All I could do was tell them "why" I KNOW Teena is in heaven with God and lovingly say, "I know she wants you there as anyone can who has Jesus Christ in their heart." Frankly, I don't know what you could say. Surely you don't want to tell them to get saved as this would imply that your friend was not. Perhaps one of our forum regulars who have been in the position to deal with this will respond. I have been in the ministry but have never had to "find an answer" for your delema. God's speed, InGodITrust |

50 | to be in Gods presence | Ps 16:11 | InGodITrust | 189083 | ||
BJMAY, I would have to do some research.....very good question!!! "In Thy presence is fulness of joy.In Thy right hand there are pleasures forever." For Thou dost make him most blessed forever; Thou dost make him joyful with gladness in Thy presence. Psalm 21:6 Hope this gets you started. Do you have a reference Bible? If you do just follow the reference off of Psalm 16:11 Blessings, InGodITrust |

GHelen, Greetings, First of all do you know that Psalm 72 is considered Messianic. Meaning it is revealing something about Christ? To give you a thorough answer at this time,what it is all about, I can't. So, is that your understanding, that is it also Messianic? Let us know, InGodITrust |

53 | Does anyone have any notes on Isa 44:4? | Is 44:4 | InGodITrust | 190914 | ||
Joanna, Here's what I found on the "Easton's Bible Dictionary web site: Isaiah 44:4 Cross References XREF: Leviticus 23:40 'Now on the first day you shall take for yourselves the foliage of beautiful trees, palm branches and boughs of leafy trees and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before the LORD your God for seven days. Job 40:22 "The lotus plants cover him with shade; The willows of the brook surround him. (NASB ©1995) Commentaries and Concordances GSB: 44:4 And they shall spring up as among the grass, as willows by the water courses. (d) That is, your children and posterity will increase wonderfully after their deliverance from Babylon. MHC: 44:1-8 Israel is here called Jeshurun, which means the upright one. Such only are Israelites indeed, in whom is no guile. Those that serve God he will own. He will help them over difficulties, and in their services. Water is the emblem of the Holy Spirit; as water refreshes, cleanses, and makes the earth fruitful, so do his influences the soul. This gift of the Holy Ghost is the great blessing, the plentiful pouring out of which God kept for the latter days. Where God gives his Spirit, he will give all other blessings. Hereby shall be a great increase of the church; thus it shall be spread to distant places. Was there any other Rock, or Protector, that could defend them? None besides could foretell these things to come, of which God by his prophets gave notice. All was set in order in the Divine predictions, as well as in the Divine purposes. Could any other have done so? Who can compare with Israel's Redeemer and King? InGodITrust |

54 | what are the names of Jesus' sisters? | Matthew | InGodITrust | 187973 | ||
rccola, Greeting In Christ, Here's what I know: Question: "Did Jesus have brothers and sisters (siblings)?" Answer: Jesus’ brothers are mentioned in several Bible verses. Matthew 12:46, Luke 8:19, and Mark 3:31 say that Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him. The Bible tells us that Jesus had four brothers: James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas (Matthew 13:55). The Bible also tells us that Jesus had sisters, but they are not named or numbered (Matthew 13:56). In John 7:1-10, His brothers go on to the festival while Jesus stays behind. In Acts 1:14, His brothers and mother are described as praying with the disciples. Later, in Galatians 1:19, it mentions that James was Jesus’ brother. The most natural conclusion of these passages is to interpret that Jesus had actual blood siblings. http://www.gotquestions.org/Jesus-siblings.html Blessings, InGodITrust |

58 | True Sabbath | Matt 28:1 | InGodITrust | 189744 | ||
Hello seeking_truth, Yes, the Sabbath is from Friday at 6pm until Saturday at 6pm. The Messianic Jews still feel it necessary to honor the Lord's Day as Saturday. Mainly, this is because of tradition and the fact it is "a Jewish law" from the Old Testament as they are the chosen Nation. However, New Testament Christians began meeting on the "first day of the week" in honor of Christ's resurection. Okeedookie........? InGodITrust |

MarB, There is a broad range of topics in Mark chapter 3. 1. Jesus heals on the Sabbath. 2. Has power over demons. 3. Personnally calls the twelve disciples. 4. Rejected by the scribes. 5. Answers the question; "who (actually are) My brothers and sisters?" This should get you started.......... InGodITrust (all others pay cash!) |

60 | Searching for the truth | John | InGodITrust | 190020 | ||
Fytrobert, Good question..... Jesus is not requiring a specfic name but rather "a specific acknowledgement." In order to have reseptive prayers basically, there are two requirments. One, what John 14:14 is seeking is "do you believe Jesus is the Son of God, the One and only?" And the One and only direct link to God the Father? Two, "Whatever we ask must be according to His will and purpose, not necessarily ours." Question answered? InGodITrust |
