42 | Homesexuality? Wrong? | Lev 20:18 | journey_me | 92986 | ||
Here I go again. Where can I find specifics dealing with homosexuality? Does the bible explicitly say homosexuality is wrong or does it implicitly say so? How can the episcopalian church elect an openly gay person as bishop, especially if he is actively gay? Or is simply not prcticing homosexuality? Is homesexuality not apart of the doctorine they teach? Please help. I am an advocate and I love to debate. Sometimes I get stuk because I can't find certain things. I need some textual evidence for this one. I remember reading something in Romans, but I can't find it. |

43 | Is sex marriage? Premarital Sex: Sin? | Numbers | journey_me | 146659 | ||
I have to re-post this question because it was not answered, I thank you for the scriptures you provided, however, you provided scripture that sparked my question in the first place. Sexual Immorality is a braod term. Where in the bible does it make reference to premarital sex as immoral or loss of virginity as immoral? Is sexual immorality something we define according to social ethics or is the bible clear on premarital sex. Please no quick fix answer, I'm looking for more than just the surface. I am trying to pinpoint where the idea of no sex before marriage came from. I also think the answer may be that sex is marriage, and multiple partners is adulterous. I need some scriptires and some biblical philosophy on this point. If you do not feel like going into detail on your stance, please leave question posted for someone else to answer:) Thanks Here is the original question: I have always been told that premarital sex is a sin. I have also been taught that fornication is a sin as well. I know the bible speaks of sexual imorality and list the various ones, but I never got a sense that they were talking about premarital sex, it seems to me that they were talking about lasciviousness, or multiple sex partners. I know Paul calls for us to abstain from sex and if we choose to engage in sex, that we should marry, but where does it say that premarital sex is wrong (Corinthians 7)? I also know that the bible speaks highly of virginity, is the opposite of virginity whoredom? Is there not an in between. Is sex before marriage something that derived from social ethics, or am I just not looking in the right place for my answer. |

44 | Where does the holy spirit dwell ? | Job 40:16 | journey_me | 92898 | ||
Where does the mind dwell inside of you? Where does love dwell inside of you? The answer is not the brain and not the heart, that is just where we feel it. You would need to have experienced the Holy Spirit in order to answer that question. | ||||||
45 | Pregnant Belly Immoral? | Ps 139:13 | journey_me | 176419 | ||
My mother-n-law says that taking pics of your pregnant belly is wrong. She askd me, "What would God say, if he saw my belly." Is there any biblical references to the way a pregnant woman should dress. Or any moral opinion? | ||||||
46 | Did Jesus punish anyone, that is, an ind | Matt 18:6 | journey_me | 146634 | ||
I am interested in the answer to your question. I noticed that all of the post due not answer the question or provide evidence, they come close, but they still fall short. Jesus said it would better for him to drown, but he doesn't say what the alternative is. We can, of course infer several option, but this quote doesn't quite answer the question. | ||||||
47 | Literal or Not? | Matt 19:4 | journey_me | 92876 | ||
Is the bible literal in regards to history and creation? Timothy 3:16 depicts the bible as being a source for living or a guide. It doesn't directly or indirectly apply that the bible is literal. With that being said, how do we distibguish metaphors, parables, and symbols? None of these ideas take away from Timothy 3:16. When discusiing creation you are lead to believe that the bible is literal? Where is the proof that the Genesis creation story should be read as such? |
||||||
48 | Literal or Not? | Matt 19:4 | journey_me | 92895 | ||
Thanks. You helped me with 2 out of 3. The third answer is not what I am looking for it is just a philospohical answer. It is just like saying Why and someone answers Why Not? The answer to my third questions can actually be found within the first two answers, however I am still looking for something more. | ||||||

50 | Why does he fall asleep at church? | Luke 8:15 | journey_me | 153258 | ||
It is not the devil hindering your husband, it is your husband hindering himself. He says he believes in God, but he doesn't understand and he hasn't a clue what all that entails. He needs to first find his passion for Christ, so that he may be hungry for the word. It could be that he is at a church where he is unable to grow spiritually. He needs to find a church home, where he is moved by the spirit. I had the same experience years ago. I thought church was boring because I wasn't hungry for the word, it was something my mom made me do. One day I heard a sermon and it changed my life. I began to want to know more about God, and I started reading the bible. I found myself anxious for the next sermon. It sounds like he believes in God because he thinks it is the right thing to do, similar to a kid in church. He doesn't realize that christianity is about a personal intimate relationship with God, and not just about sitting in church. It may also be that he doesn't know his God given puurpose in life, in which many of us don't, because we don't have faith, we have religion. The best thing to do is to pray about it, and trust God will lead you to a church or person that will spark his spiritual motivation. Last, don't force him or push God on him. By this I mean, some people are more gifted in discussing Christ than others. This does not mean, you can't talk about God with your husband. This simply mean, there may be others who can spark the flame. Sometimes as a spouse we try so hard that husbands or wives become put off by our actions and they associate it with church or Christ. Be patient. I hope this helps. |

52 | Homosexual are picked on in the church? | Rom 3:23 | journey_me | 177301 | ||
I was researching homosexuality on this website, and everyone seems to point to 1 Cor 6:9, as proof that homosexuality is wrong. The problem that I have is that this verse names every sin, and every human being falls under one of those categories, so why do people ignore the rest of the verse, and pick on homosexuals. Every human being is either an idolater, adulterer, covetous, swindler, immoral, or a fornicator in some way are another. Why are all these people allowed to be Christians, but homosexuals are not. Every human being is a sinner and being a homosexual is no different from being a fornicator, God said sexual immorality is wrong. Why are ministers allowed to hold positions in the church when they are not married, we know they having sex. Why are pregnant women who are not married allowed right and benefits when we know they are fornicators. Can someone please show me or advised me, where the bible singles out homosexuality as the only damning sin. For the record I am not gay, I'm married with 2 children, but I was reading some of the comments and I was outraged. My brother-in-law is gay and his brother won't talk to him because the bible says it's wrong, however he is not married and lost his virginity at 14. |

53 | Homosexual are picked on in the church? | Rom 3:23 | journey_me | 177343 | ||
Thank you Mark, that's what I am saying. I'm not condoning any sin, I am asking why is homosexuality so politicized in the church. Before we pick on one, we need to evaluate all. |

54 | The Gift of Tongues | 1 Corinthians | journey_me | 92887 | ||
Can every Christian or any Christian speak tongues? I went to church with a friend and the preacher asked everyone to speak in tongues and the majority of the people broke out in "tongue"? I was taught that the gift of tongues was a spiritual gift and that not all people possess all gifts. |

56 | Women Preachers? Yes or No? | 1 Cor 1:1 | journey_me | 93522 | ||
The other day a lady wrote a question regarding the role of women in church. On tv the news compared the election of an openly-gay bishop to a similar scandal involving the appointment of the first female bishop. I was wondering why would a woamn bishop bring about a threat of separation between the episcopalan and anglican church. Then I cam accross 1 Cor 14:34-35 [34]Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law [35] And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. Saith what law? Is this strictly for those who are under the law? Are women under Grace permitted to speak in church? Can somone explain this to me? Are women allowed to be leaders in church or not? The scriptures clearly say no. Why are women required to be silent and seek knowledge from their husbands? I am not trying to be sexist, I am trying to understand how we can justify having women preachers, bishops, and etc if it is against the scriptures. |

59 | Galatians 3, Why did God create the law? | Galatians | journey_me | 146737 | ||
I don't understand why God created the Law, if it was a curse? Galatians 3:10 All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.” Does that mean God set people up to fail? Galatains 3;21-22 Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Absolutely not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law. 22 But the Scripture declares that the whole world is a prisoner of sin, so that what was promised, being given through faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who believe. If Jesus was the only person who entered heaven through the law, why was the law created? How then could anyone be righteous? I do not understand this chapter and it doesn't seem to make since. I keep going in circles. Please do not right the answer is clear. Positive people only. |
