42 | Partnership in business... | 2 Cor 6:14 | hobbs | 169708 | ||
Dear Mabudachi, Thanks for your question. In researching an answer to it, I discovered that my own impression of 2 Corinthians 6:14 was completely wrong. What a blessing it is to participate on a forum such as this! I strongly suggest that you read an article by Bob Deffinbaug. Certain symbols are not recognized on studybibleforum's site, so you will need to google...(Bob Deffinbaugh 2 Corinthians 6:14) to get to it. He shows from Scripture why 2 Corinthians 6:14 it is very specific and NOT a prohibition against business partnerships beteeen believers and unbelievers. Praise God!!! John |

43 | How to draw near to God | Bible general Archive 3 | hobbs | 169556 | ||
Dear Littlebird, the fear that you are experiencing is a blessing in disguise. Jer 32:40 "I will make an everlasting covenant with them that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; and I will put the fear of Me in their hearts so that they will not turn away from Me. There is not single one of us who are not disobediant. None of us love or desire Christ as much as He deserves to be loved. Thank God that we He does not base our salvation on our performance, but He bases it on what Jesus has done in our place. Praise God that you see yourself as you do. 1 John 1:10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar and His word is not in us. The trial that you are experiencing has come to make you strong. There are times of trial and times of refreshing. Though them all Christ has us in His strong hand and nothing will seperate us from Him. Stand on the promises of God. We may be unfaithful but He is faithful always. Continue to pray even though it seems to you that your prayers are not getting any higher than the ceiling of your room. Continue to read your Bible and trust the Holy Spirit to lead you to His truth. Confess your sin to God and thank Him for His Son and for what He has done for you. Grace and Peace, John |

46 | John 11: Mary Magdalene or Martha's sis? | Matt 27:56 | hobbs | 169323 | ||
Magdalene - a surname derived from Magdala, the place of her nativity, given to one of the Marys of the Gospels to distinguish her from the other Marys (Matt. 27:56, 61; 28:1, etc.). A mistaken notion has prevailed that this Mary was a woman of bad character, that she was the woman who is emphatically called "a sinner" (Luke 7:36-50). (See MARY.)

48 | The power of faith | Mark 11:23 | hobbs | 168852 | ||
If a person did move a mountain by faith. would that be by his own will, or by God's will being accomplished by that person? I believe it would be by God's will. Gal 2:20 "I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. Eph 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them. Later, John |

49 | Knowing sin before the "law"? | Rom 7:7 | hobbs | 168788 | ||
There are times when the only appropriate thing to do is to bow down before God; confess our ignorance; and belive. For we were born yesterday, and know nothing, Because our days on earth are a shadow. (Job 8:9) John |

50 | why create us as sinful creatures? | Rom 7:7 | hobbs | 168764 | ||
An essential element of understanding scripture is humility. It is not primarily about us. It is about God! Is 43:5 "Do not fear, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east, And gather you from the west. Is 43:6 "I will say to the north, 'Give them up!' And to the south, 'Do not hold them back.' Bring My sons from afar And My daughters from the ends of the earth, Is 43:7 Everyone who is called by My name, And whom I have created for My glory, Whom I have formed, even whom I have made." Rev 4:11 "Worthy are You, our Lord and our God, to receive glory and honor and power; for You created all things, and because of Your will they existed, and were created." We are His creatures and we were created to glorify Him. His plan included the salvation of sinful people, so that He would be praised for His mercy. John |

51 | ... | Is 43:10 | hobbs | 168611 | ||
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God." The only people who will go to Hell are those whom have not been born again. No one of us is in a position to say otherwise about anyone. God the Holy Spirit is likened to the wind. We don't know where it comes from or where it is going. But we do know that it always serves God the Father's purpose, which is to awaken the dead to new life in God the Son. John 6:37 "All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out. 8 John 6:44 "No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up on the last day. The Father calls, The Spirit Regenerates and the Son raises. One God 3 Persons John |

52 | Where did evil come from? | Prov 16:4 | hobbs | 168609 | ||
Hi Daw, God did indeed create Adam and eve with the gift of a truly free will. But when they chose evil God not only stripped them personally of that gift, but all their decendants as well. All evil is merely the corruption of that which is good. For instance: God has provided us with food which not only sustains our lives, but also can be a delight to our senses. This "good" gift becomes "evil" when we partake of it glutenously. Why Lucifer chose to rebel against his Maker or where this desire came from, I don't think we know. The Bible was no written to satisfy our curiosity. It was written for our salvation. Isa 55:8,9 For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. John |

53 | V chip for Christians? | NT general Archive 1 | hobbs | 168584 | ||
Hello justme, I agree that there is much to condemn in our culture. TV; Movies; music; literature; politics; Religion...virtually evrey aspect one could imagine is corrupt to one degree or another. Saint Augustine said " Love God, then do as you please." He firmly believed, that if one truly loved God, that such a person would be constrained by that love, and would strive against the temptations of the flesh from whatever quarter they came from. Should christians cancel HBO,etc.? I think that such a decision is up to each individual's own conscience. To go further than that would be to flirt with legalism. One caution: 1 Cor 8:9 But take care that this liberty of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak. God Bless, John |
