41 | What does 'ministering to the Lord' mean | Acts 13:2 | Praise Be To God | 139768 | ||
Our pastor always refers to our praise and worship time as "ministering" to the Lord. Janae. |

42 | What Pentecostal am I? | Bible general Archive 2 | Praise Be To God | 139738 | ||
Dear Sugar Kisses O My: From what you say, it would appear to me that you are Assemblies of God. I am Assemblies of God, myself. I have not heard that some believe you must be baptized in the Holy Spirit evidenced by speaking in other tongues in order to be saved. That is not biblical. Speaking in tongues is a GIFT of salvation, not a requirement for it. I would recommend the Assemblies of God to anyone. It is where God brought me when I was first saved and I have been here ever since. EdB gave you some good advice, if you are not sure you want to remain in the Assemblies of God Church, but I would certainly pray about that. It may be that is just where God wants you. Love in Christ, Janae |

43 | intercessors and the church | Deut 25:5 | Praise Be To God | 139623 | ||
Dear Big O: I am an intercessor in my church. We gather an hour before our Sunday morning service to pray for the service and for the people; we also lay hands on our pastor and pray for him. On Friday mornings we have a prayer meeting to pray for our church and our pastor, but I am unable to attend those prayer meetings because I work. However, on Thursday nights, we have another prayer meeting that I am able to attend. At that meeting we pray for our nation and our president, and the war in Iraq, for example. We allow the Holy Spirit to lead us as to what we pray for. We follow God's agenda. We want our church to be known as a house of prayer. I hope this enlightens you. Love in Christ Jesus, Janae |

44 | God condeming people unable to know him. | John 17:3 | Praise Be To God | 139577 | ||
I don't know of a Bible verse covering this, but Jesus spoke of "those the Father has given him" in his prayer in John 17:2 and 3: "As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. 3And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." It would appear from these verses that not all of humanity will have an opportunity to hear of Jesus Christ-- unless we go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Which we are commanded to do. Any other thoughts on this? Janae. |

45 | Why would anyone feel obligated to tell | 1 Sam 16:2 | Praise Be To God | 139506 | ||
I think Samson was enraptured with Delilah, and would have done anything she asked, even to his own demise, which he did. Samson was a womanizer, and I think Delilah used that to her advantage. She seemed to take advantage of people a lot: Judges 16:18: "And when Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, Come up this once, for he hath shewed me all his heart. Then the lords of the Philistines came up unto her, and brought money in their hand." Janae |

46 | Would actions change if? | Rom 11:25 | Praise Be To God | 139304 | ||
God does make his dwelling with us--in us--our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit. We are going to be with God in heaven: "In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you." John 14:2 The thought I embrace is, Jesus could come at any moment for His Bride, so you had better be close enough to God so you can hear that trumpet! Janae. |

47 | God's definition of sex | 1 Cor 7:2 | Praise Be To God | 139261 | ||
Sex is a part of marriage, not the other way around. You must be married in order to have sex. I would say that, yes, you do need to perform the marriage ceremony in order to be married. Sex does not make you married in God's eyes. Being married makes you married in God's eyes. Sex outside of marriage in wrong, whether it is with one person or 1,000 persons. Janae |

50 | what is back sliding | Luke 6:46 | Praise Be To God | 138467 | ||
With God, you are always moving forward; there is no standing still. If you are not moving forward, you are moving back. Backsliding is neglecting God and the things of God. It can be to a point where you could lose your salvation if you are not careful. | ||||||
51 | Luke 17:6 | Luke 17:6 | Praise Be To God | 138445 | ||
Romans 12:3: "For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith." Janae |

53 | Who is "righteous?" | Prov 14:32 | Praise Be To God | 138390 | ||
Greetings in Christ, Romans 3:10 says: "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:". When we put on the armour of God, we put on Christ's righteousness, and we are clothed in His righteousness, but our own unrighteousness is like filthy rags (Isaiah 64:6: "But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags". Only in Christ can we be righteous, and we are made righteous through Him. All Praise Be Unto God, Janae |

55 | is Melchizedek Jesus | Gen 14:18 | Praise Be To God | 137114 | ||
According to the "Full Life Study Bible," Melchizedek (meaning "king of rightousness") was both "king of Salem" (possibly ancient Jerusalem) and "priest of the most high God." He served the one true God as did Abram. Melchizedek was a Canaanite, and thus, like Job, an example of a godly non-Israelite. Melchizedek is a type or figure of the royalty and eternal priesthood of Jesus Christ, i.e. Melchizedek: a type of Christ. Psalm 110:4 is fulfilled in Christ, but Melchizedek is not Christ: "The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek." Consider also Hebrews 7:1-3: "For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him. 2 To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace. 3 Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually." This does not mean that Melchisedec literally had no parents or family or that he was an angel. It simply means that the Scriptures do not record his genealogy and say nothing of his beinning and end. Therefore, he serves as a type of the eternal Christ, whose priesthood will never end (Hebrews 7:24 and 25). Because of Him, Janae. |

56 | Subject for a Christian powerpoint. | Gen 37:2 | Praise Be To God | 136867 | ||
Joseph comes to mind initially. All during his entire life, Joseph showed extreme integrity. No matter what happened to him, he would not sin against God. Joseph's life is a series of great events portrayed in scripture. There will be many examples to use for your powerpoint presentation. Hope this helps. Because of Him, Janae |

57 | what do you do when you feel no love.... | Matt 22:37 | Praise Be To God | 136352 | ||
Dearest Amanda, You can't go by your feelings--feelings are fickle. What you can go by is God's Word. God's Word is true and everything else is subject to change--by that Word. It sounds to me like you are being oppressed--not possessed--but oppressed. It sounds to me like you need to repent and ask God to forgive you for not loving Him and others. We are commanded to love God and to love others: "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself." This is commanded of us by God. God gave us free will. We choose to obey his commandments. Is there something in your life which you need to confess to God? For, if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (I John 1:9) I advise you to seek God in prayer, repent and ask his forgiveness. God has not left you. It sounds like you have left Him. I hope this helps. Love in Christ Jesus, Janae. |

58 | Revelation 3 v 15 | Rev 2:6 | Praise Be To God | 136174 | ||
Dear Effpomens, According to the commentary note in the Full Life Study Bible, page 2038, the Nicolaitans (see also Rev. 3:15) probably affirmed, as did the teaching of Balaam that sexual immorality did not affect one's salvation in Christ. The New Testament clearly states the contrary; such persons shall not inherit the kingdom of God (1 Cor. 6:9-10). God hates the doctrine that teaches we can be saved and at the same time live immoral lives. To hate what God hates is an essential characteristic of those loyal to Christ (Ps. 139:21; Prov. 8:13).
