42 | Differing views to questions ? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 194857 | ||
Hi Jashar, I’m sure glad to see this portion in your post, “we have to arrive at a conclusion based on our knowledge of Scripture at the time.” Is the “truth” of God’s Word determined by our lack, as it were, of the accumulated knowledge of the Bible? I’ve been a believer of Jesus for close to 65 years now and a believer in Jesus for over 42 years. I think I’m growing at a faster rate now then when I was first saved due to the knowledge of Bible doctrine and the building of Scripture upon Scripture to arrive at truth. Many of my views have changed over the years with regards to certain doctrines. Psalm 119:160 The sum of Thy word is truth, And every one of Thy righteous ordinances is everlasting. The sum of God’s word doesn’t mean “some of God’s word” but “all”, and that being the accumulation of “all” the verses that pertain to a specific doctrine not just pet passages that we like for the purpose of backing up our misunderstandings. Have fun and have great day, CDBJ |

Greetings and welcome to the forum. You might want to ask the one that said this to you; that since he isn’t depending on the grace of God for “all” of his blessing, how much is this particular blessing supposed to cost you personally? And if says he is depending on grace, why then should he expect and different from you? Philip. 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. P.S. Please don’t post to the forum with all upper case letters it makes it tough to read and it looks like you are screaming at us! Have fun and I hope you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |

45 | Is the Angel Jesus Christ | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 195071 | ||
Greetings nsmithohio, Revelation 10:1 I saw (1) another strong angel coming down out of heaven, (2) clothed with a cloud; and the rainbow was upon his head, and his face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire; 1. Another strong angel sends us back to Revelation 5:2. There "a strong angel" is associated with the large scroll. That John indicates that this angel is another limits the possible referent. Some have attempted to argue that this angel is none other than Jesus, Himself. However, this point should not be pressed. It would appear safer to allow the text to limit our discussion. Three angelic beings are identified as "strong" in the Revelation. The first occurrences appears in Revelation 5:2. The second is in Revelation 10:1 and the final occurrence is in Revelation 18:21. What is the significance of the "strong angels?" The characteristics associated with "another strong angel" in Revelation 10:1-7 are closely parallel to an angelic being described in Daniel 10:5-6 and 12:5-7. These similarities have given some interpreters the basis to see a connection between these two texts. Based on Revelation 5:2, 10:1 and 18:21, strong angels are revelatory angels. That is, they specifically communicate to man information from God. In Revelation 5:2, the strong angel communicates the identity of the person worthy to open the sealed scroll. In Revelation 10:1, he communicates a significant transition in the program of God. In Revelation 18:21, he communicates the destiny of the capital city of the beast empire. Similarly, an angelic being in Daniel 10 communicates the destiny of the Jews and Jerusalem. Daniel 10:21b states, "Yet there is no one who stands firmly with me against these forces except Michael your prince." The verse literally says, "Yet there is no one who shows himself strong with me…." Hebrew language emphasizes the continuing nature of these angelic beings. In other words, they are continually strong. Therefore, Michael and this angelic being are strong angels. In Revelation 10:1, the adjective strong comes from the Greek word ischuros. In Daniel 10:21b, the verb to show oneself strong comes from the Hebrew word chazak. The verb form used in Daniel 10:21b means to prove to be strong courageous. Therefore, like this angelic being, Michael is a strong angel. Notice again Daniel 10:21b, "Yet there is no one who shows himself strong with me against these forces except Michael your prince." Michael is described as "one of the chief princes," in Daniel 10:13, which demands that there is more than one chief prince. The apostle Jude indicates that Michael is an archangel (Jude 1:9). Thus, the angel who speaks in Daniel 10 and Revelation 10 are probably both of the same type as Michael, the archangel.

Greetings rhiatt and welcome to the forum. If we start answering iffy questions about the Bible we could go on forever and nothing would be accomplished. God has presented us with His Word just the way He wanted it, so it is expedient that we use what we have not what could have been, what is, or what will come to pass apart from what God has already directed. 2 Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: I hope you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |

49 | What is the reason God is speaking of ? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 196159 | ||
Greetings, You claim the following with regards to marriage of couples that aren’t "godly": Your statement; “No that is not what I suggesting. I know that people who do not have a relationship with God get married as well. But I was taught that those marriages are not acknowledged by God.” Since you were taught that information and seeing this is a Bible study, the biblical evidence that God doesn’t acknowledge those marriages, rest with you. I’m not saying your wrong; I just don’t know where this is taught in the Bible, if you could site the location of this information, i.e. chapter and verse and then we could all be privy to it. 2 Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: I’m still learning and seeing that my wife and I just celebrated our fiftieth anniversary maybe I could spring that one her and check out her reaction? We were married 8 years before either one of us became a child of God. CDBJ |

50 | dreams and visions not scriptural? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 196608 | ||
Greetings and reference to your take on l Cor. 13:10, Your logic seems realistic enough, looking at the verse from an English translation but the Koine Greek spells it quite differently. 1 Cor. 13:10 (KJV)(A) English But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. 1 Cor. 13:10 (KOINE GREEK) (A) When (HOTEN) but (DE) comes (ELTHE) the (TO) completion (TELEION) The word translated as perfect in the English is from the base word (TELEIOS) (Adjective) pronominal, or having the function of a pronoun. In the nominative case, i.e. designating, of, or in the case of the subject of a finite verb. It is in the neuter gender; Jesus Christ is masculine gender not neuter gender., singular person It all points to the completed Cannon of Scripture which was to come later after Paul spoke these words and being finished with the book of Revelation by the apostle John. Enjoy the forum, CDBJ P.S. I like your personal profile and your branch of service! YOU WIN! |

Greetings rdc, Those sure are some pretty word but aside from citing biblical chapters and verses it really doesn’t explain all that much on a Bible forum. Sometimes, if Scripture isn’t given, our vernacular expressions confuses others; I’m afraid that I fall into that category at this juncture. 2 Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: It’s usually "customary" to make a personal declaration then back it up with God’s Word. Here is one that you claim and I’m not quite sure how that works. “I should go on but it becomes tedious to the boastful.” Why should you go on, and how is it tedious to the boastful; I've never seen it be much of a problem for them? You mentioned the KJV of the Bible and commercial versions; does that mean that your KJV was free or something? I would like to suggest that you might want to add the denomination that you mentioned, in your post, to your User Info; sometimes it helps: I’ve never heard of that denomination? I hope you enjoy the forum, CDBJ |

54 | discouraging the use of mediums | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 196897 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum. Your question is; “Where can I find verses that discourage against the use of mediums and other such people.” The Bible doesn’t “discourage against” as it were, it is an emphatic command “not to do it!” Deut. 18:10 There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, King Saul thought he might give it a try and look where it landed him. 1 Chron. 10:13-14 So Saul died for his unfaithfulness which he had committed against the LORD, because he did not keep the word of the LORD, and also because he consulted a medium for guidance. 14But he did not inquire of the LORD; therefore He killed him, and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse. I’d say that was pretty emphatic and one that messes with that stuff is going to get burnt. I sure hope you enjoy the forum! CDBJ |

Greetings, This has been a bad distortion of the Bible for years. God’s Word says we are not “commit murder”. cf Psalm 144:1 A Psalm of David. Blessed be the LORD, my rock, Who trains my hands for war, And my fingers for battle; There is a very well documented situation concerning the Moravian Indians. They were miss informend when evangelized to the point that they even thought it wrong to defend themselves; as a result they were massacred and it has been taught that this single act set the gospel message of Christ back many, many, years with regards to the American Indian Nations. http://www.electricscotland.com/history/canada/kent2.htm This happened in my neck of the woods, CDBJ |

I stand firm on what the Word of God says! Psalm 144:1 A Psalm of David. Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight: I don’t want to continue this discussion, that would in any way diminish what the noble military of this country has persevered through wars that have been fought to defend the rights of “grateful people”! Matthew 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. Matthew 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. End of discussion, CDBJ |

Hi Sq, Where does the person of Jesus Christ fit into all that you have mentioned? Your first answer was that you were saved and you felt it. The problem is the Bible doesn’t back up what you say, were feelings; the Bible deals with facts and the feeling can’t be trusted! The process for forgiveness doesn’t include asking God to forgive you; it’s confession of your sins! God has already said He will forgive you so don’t insult Him by asking Him if He will, just do what He tells you. 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. What is the Word of God telling you to do in that verse? Confess or admit your sins to Him and if you do that, what does God say He will do for you in return? He WILL forgive your sins and cleanse you from ALL unrighteousness. Do you believe what God says? The only reason why God can do this for you is because of what God did for those sins in the person of His Son Jesus the Christ. The problem with most believers that exercise the promise of 1John 1:9 is that 10 minutes after confessing their sins they commit another one and they are right back where they started before they confessed; out of fellowship again. On top of that most start having a guilt complex and that’s a sin as well and then they need to confess that sin to the Father! There are sins of omission and well as sins of commission that puts one out of fellowship. My advice to you would be to confess you sins to God the Father as soon as you sin then start forming some good study habits; like starting in the gospel of John and reading as much every day as you can right straight through to the end of the Bible. Buy yourself some marking pencils and start underline promises. Follow that with starting over and reading the whole New Testament from Matthew again to Rev. Then do it with a different translation and then start with Gen. and read to the end of the Bible! Always ask God to reveal the truth of His word before you read! 2 Tim. 3:16-17 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Let God talk to you through His Word; you need to get back to Square one while you still have a chance. If you are still alive, God still has a plan for your life, CDBJ |

59 | salvation | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 198441 | ||
Hi Steve, 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. The word confess as found in the previous verse is the Koine Greek word HOMOLOGEO and its etymology originated in the courts where the accused was told to admit or state what was done even though he was caught in the act. When Jesus used the word “repent” He had not yet paid the price for sin. Now since the death of Christ on the cross, God is able to forgive the believers sin because of what Christ did to satisfy the righteousness and the justice of God. All of our pre salvation sins where handled the moment we believed in God’s Son Jesus Christ. The “penalty for sin” was paid for at the cross but our post salvation sins aren’t forgiven until we confess them to God the Father thus "restoring" fellowship. Any sin, in the believer’s life, quenches or grieves the indwelling Holy Spirit; and even though He will never leave us, since we are always indwelt by the Spirit from point of salvation, we can still lose His fellowship by neglecting to exercise the function of 1John 1:9. That was the big problem that was taking place in Corinthian church. 1 Cor. 3:3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? They were neglecting to get back in fellowship and as a result they couldn’t grow because the Holy Spirit was grieved and couldn’t teach them, i.e. they were out of fellowship and needed to be filled. Ephes. 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; The word filled or, PLEROO, means to fill up a deficiency or get back in fellowship. All sin before the death of Christ could only be covered or atoned for, but not actually removed and dealt with. God's Messiah actually removed sin being the perfect Lamb of God. Before Jesus paid the awesome price for sin one needed to ask for God to forgive him on a different basis other then what we have, since his propitious work is "completed". Thus my implication that it is an insult to God to ask for forgiveness since God has already made the provision in the person of His Son. Now I suppose I have everyone confused, CDBJ |
