41 | What is abominable things we cannot eat? | Leviticus | srbaegon | 233932 | ||
Hello, 1. Cud is partially digested food that has been chewed and swallowed, then regurgitated to be chewed again. This is how cows eat. 2-3. No foods are unclean for Christians. (See Mark 7:19; Acts 10:14-15.) 4. Those things the Law dictated to be unclean are no longer so (Rom 14:14). |

42 | God's fair standards to judge evildoers | John 5:28 | srbaegon | 232675 | ||
Hi Dan, No, I am not saying those before Jesus were already condemned. If you had read the thread, I stated earlier that men were responsible for what God had already revealed. Those alive after the Law was given but before the incarnation were responsible for the Law. Steve |

43 | God's fair standards to judge evildoers | John 5:28 | srbaegon | 232637 | ||
Hi, The answer to the question is no. Paul makes this plain: Rom 10:12-17 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him. For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." But how are they to call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent?... So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. John does as well: John 3:18 Whoever believes in him (i.e., Jesus) is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. 1 John 5:11-12 And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. Steve |

44 | God's fair standards to judge evildoers | John 5:28 | srbaegon | 232613 | ||
Hi EdB, I just caught this thread. Maybe this will help. Though Rom 1:18-32 does not speak explicitly of Jesus, he is spoken of since he is God: the same can be said of the Holy Spirit. God judges men according to their works. Those in Rom 1 demonstrate that they know enough truth about the God of scripture and have rejected him, as evidenced by their works. Men are lost because they are sinners and "children of wrath" (Eph 2:3). They refuse to believe the revelation they have been given. It is impossible to worship the God of Scripture without coming to him as he has revealed. Trying to come a different way only results in destruction. If Jesus is the way, truth, and life, any other attempt will fall short. Steve |

Hello Mint, Only those you mention (Jesus, Enoch, and Elijah) went into heaven body and soul. There are no others. Steve |

47 | Is practicing homosexuality wrong? | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 232318 | ||
Hello Diego, The answer is larger than can be addressed here, even so I offer this. The objections can be dismissed by looking at the passages in their full context. This answers why the Law allowed slaves and the harsh punishment for Sabbath work. It will be a great deal of work, but judging by your profile, you should have a solid beginning in Bible. Steve |

48 | "Flaming sword" or 'blazing drought'? | Gen 3:24 | srbaegon | 232306 | ||
Hi, I follow your reasoning. I have not attempted a word study on the subject to know if the Hebrew extrapolation fits. If it does, then the drying up of the abundant watering could fit. Steve |

49 | 1 Timothy 2:8-11 for disruptors? | 1 Tim 2:8 | srbaegon | 232305 | ||
Hi, I can agree with you that order is the order of the day. (OK, maybe my humor is weak.) Paul probably used a synagogal pattern to establish churches, but I am reticent to say he brought in traditional Jewish practices as well, only because of his warning against relying on form and works rather than the function. I could be overly cautious here. I think more that Paul was aiming to see creation order properly implemented in the framework of the family and church. Steve |

51 | God's plan of protection? | 1 Tim 2:13 | srbaegon | 232278 | ||
Hi loavesnfish, The idea of protection is there, certainly, but these verses are appealing to God's creation order. Men are responsible for being the spiritual leaders and protecting their wives (see also 1 Cor 11; 14). Beginning in Eph 5:15, Paul lays out what it means to walk carefully before the Lord. He does this by showing how God's intent of proper subordination works within the family (subordination not meaning subservience but understanding and fulfilling a God-given role). Steve |

52 | 1 Timothy 2:8-11 for disruptors? | 1 Tim 2:8 | srbaegon | 232277 | ||
Hello loavesnfish, Yes, Paul was correcting men and women who were behaving in those ways but not based on the presupposition in your post. Paul was not trying to implement Jewish worship as much as he was teaching proper worship according to God's revelation of himself. Steve |

53 | What makes God purpose soo good? | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 232276 | ||
Hello faith_love, If I can add to what G. Preston gave, God's purposes are good because they are always perfect, loving, and intended for our benefit (Matt 5:45; Rom 8:28; Heb 6:13-14), unless we reject him and then he turns against us. Steve |
||||||
54 | "Flaming sword" or 'blazing drought'? | Gen 3:24 | srbaegon | 232275 | ||
Hello loavesnfish, First, what in the Hebrew would cause you to think it should be translated "blazing drought?" Second, leaving Eden intact and placing a flaming sword is a powerful image to those around to what was lost in the fall and for their need to seek God's daily mercies for life. But that's just my opinion. Steve |

55 | GOD ALLOWED ICHILDREN TO DIE WHY? | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 232274 | ||
Hello spuds1017, Romans 3:10-18 says that all are guilty, therefore no innocent people of any age died. Steve |
||||||
56 | Genesis 3:22 | Gen 3:22 | srbaegon | 232272 | ||
Hello faith_love, The key to understanding the verse is that there is nobody else like God. If that is so, then God is speaking to Himself: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are speaking and planning together within the Godhead. There is no other good explanation. Steve |

57 | Can oppressed christian go to heaven | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 232255 | ||
Hello mutherhen, Jesus said the devil is "a liar and the father of lies" (John 8:44), therefore you can assume what a demon has told you is a lie. The problem is that you are beginning to believe the lie. All Christians wage a spiritual battle (Eph 6:12). That is why we are given spiritual armor to protect ourselves (Eph 6:13-18). By the description you give of your husband, he was agitated because he knew he was being lazy in spiritual things and his walk with the Lord. That does not mean he did not go to heaven. As for the matter of your oldest son, seek out someone near you for spiritual counsel. Steve |

58 | Were Shem, Ham, and Japheth triplets? | Gen 5:32 | srbaegon | 231927 | ||
Hello Judy A, Throughout scripture, children are given in birth order unless there is a specific reason to change it. That said, Shem is oldest, then Ham, followed by Japheth. Steve |

59 | He said I should focus on me and my daug | Bible general Archive 4 | srbaegon | 231833 | ||
Hello sharhulk, Not to disappoint you, but this forum is not designed to give marital and family counseling from a distance. There are certainly people here who are qualified to do so, but the meeting should be with someone close to where you live. There are a number of issues going on in your life. Counseling is good and should be done with someone who knows the Bible and uses it wisely. Continue to pursue that. Steve |

Hello goldieb, The answer is in the same verse: Jesus was teaching the people. Along the lake where Pater was fishing, there is a natural amphitheater. By putting out in the boat a short ways, Jesus could make full use of this terrain and be heard. Steve |
