41 | Is tithing for today? | Lev 27:30 | jg8ball | 427 | ||
Mal 3:8 "Will a man rob God? Yet you rob me. "But you ask, 'How do we rob you?' "In tithes and offerings." Mar 12:41-44 Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a fraction of a penny. Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything--all she had to live on." |

42 | So can I have seven hundred wives too? | Deut 7:3 | jg8ball | 424 | ||
In Deut 7:3, God's telling them not to intermarry or mingle with them so that they are not tempted to follow their ways. It's not a racial thing. The Bible is all about Love. As long as two people love God and love each other then how could it be wrong? |

43 | Scripture, por favor? | Ex 20:13 | jg8ball | 422 | ||
1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Note that it doesn't say some of our sins but implies all our sins. Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots. If God could forgive the people that crucified His son, I don't think there's nothing He couldn't forgive. Hope that helps. |

45 | Is inter-racial marriage biblical? | Deut 7:3 | jg8ball | 414 | ||
Solomon married the Queen of Sheba which is thought to be black. We are all God's children. What does the color of skin have to do with anything? | ||||||

No sin is too great for God to forgive. | ||||||
47 | Prisoners doomed to die? Who are they? | Ps 79:11 | jg8ball | 344 | ||
From the Matthew Henry Commentary: They pray that God would find out a way for the rescue of his poor prisoners, especially the condemned prisoners, v. 11. The case of their brethren who had fallen into the hands of the enemy was very sad; they were kept close prisoners, and, because they durst not be heard to bemoan themselves, they vented their griefs in deep and silent sighs. All their breathing was sighing, and so was their praying. They were appointed to die, as sheep for the slaughter, and had received the sentence of death within themselves. This deplorable case the psalmist recommends, 1. To the divine pity: "Let their sighs come up before thee, and be thou pleased to take cognizance of their moans.’’ 2. To the divine power: "According to the greatness of thy arm, which no creature can contest with, preserve thou those that are appointed to die from the death to which they are appointed.’’ Man’s extremity is God’s opportunity to appear for his people. |

49 | Should Paul haver gone to Jerusalem? | Acts | jg8ball | 339 | ||
If God wants you to deliver a message, you'd best do it. Look what Jonah went through when he tried to run away. | ||||||
50 | Do you believe once save, always saved. | Luke 23:43 | jg8ball | 338 | ||
No. If that were true, why would we be warned against temptations? | ||||||
51 | How is that implied in "pisteuo"? | John 1:12 | jg8ball | 337 | ||
I don't know why that would be implied. Maybe the translators wanted to stress that you had to believe to receive and at that time it was translated everyone knew that's what was implied. But now it could take on different meaning and confuse things. (just a guess - maybe there's someone out there that can explain it better) That's why I primarily use the NIV and not the KJV and NASB as my main source (although I will reference other versions from time to time). |

52 | Is "Paradise" the same as heaven? | Luke 23:43 | jg8ball | 334 | ||
I believe that's what Jesus was referring to. You could argue that Jesus didn't go to Heaven that day but if you believe in the Trinity then Jesus could have been talking about being in Paradise (Heaven) with God. If you don't believe in the Trinity (or don't like that explanation) then you could intrepret his statement that because he chose to believe in Jesus that day, he will be with him in Heaven. If you believe that time doesn't exist in Heaven like it does here on earth (a year is like a thousand years) then by saying today doesn't really mean much to God but it would to the dying person on the cross. | ||||||
53 | "even" is confusing. | John 1:12 | jg8ball | 329 | ||
The greek word used for the phrase "[even] to those who believe" is "pisteuo" which translates to "to believe, to put one's faith in, trust". I believe the word "even" was added by the KJV authors. Look up in your Bible to see what it means when you see a word in square brackets. When you believe in His name, you will recieve him. |

54 | Who were the son's of God in Job? | Gen 6:4 | jg8ball | 247 | ||
The NIV translates the "sons of God" to "Angels". The Hebrew word used is Ben-elohiym and roughly translates to "A group, sons of, or descendents of a mighty one or God" Because they were there with God and Satan would imply Angels rather than man. The Nephilim mentioned in Gen 6:4 could potentially refer to these Angels. This could explain why the children of the Nephilim and women were bigger and stronger than man. (also see Num 13:33, Num 13:28, Deut 1:28, Josh 11:22 and Josh 14:12 in this order) | ||||||
