I hope it is the verse that you want. Ro 2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Ro 2:15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) Thanks and God bless, Johnny |

423 | How can everyone hear the gospel | Rom 2:15 | jlpangilinan | 23804 | ||
Yes! it was mentioned that the gospel of Jesus will preach all over the world! but not anyone will hear it and the same time saw it. Please dont think that my answer to you is Sarcastic but of course we know that sometimes the babies dies very early, so those are belong to did not have the opportunity to listen the Gospel. To answer to your second question: "But what about the people who live their entire lives in remote areas of the world and don't have a chance to hear missionaries speak about Jesus Christ?" Apostle paul has specific teaching on how God will judge those people: Ro 2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Ro 2:15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) I hope it would helps.

424 | what does circumcision mean | Rom 3:1 | jlpangilinan | 163294 | ||

425 | "none righteous" | Rom 3:18 | jlpangilinan | 33324 | ||
Ro 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: Ro 3:11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. Ro 3:12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Ro 3:13 Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: 13. Ro 3:14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: Ro 3:15 Their feet are swift to shed blood: Ro 3:16 Destruction and misery are in their ways: Ro 3:17 And the way of peace have they not known: Ro 3:18 There is no fear of God before their eyes. If we read these verses through 3:18 we would understand who was Paul talking about and of whom not seeketeth God, those who are not fear God. As you mentioned Job, Enoch are good persons, Noah also considered as a "perfect" man in his generations: Ge 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. If we just read the romans 3:10 it will contradict the other part of the bible that stated that there are people who feard God, i.e. Moses, Abraham and other who are faithful to God. If we read 3:18 of romans it will explain that tho who are written in the 3:10 are those who are not feared God. I know you will agree that too many persons stated in the bible that followed God, especially the prophets. There are also explanations that Romans 3:10 means the corruption of man from his original righteous as "likeness and own image of God" as mentioned in Genesis. As we all know God created man "perfect" as His "Images and Likeness" but after the disobedience of man (adam and eve) those original righteous lost. And we need Jesus Christ to redeem from that lost. 1Co 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. Here are some input from EASTON BIBLE DICTIONARY: "Disobedience of Man" is frequently and properly used to denote only the moral corruption of their whole nature inherited by all men from Adam. This inherited moral corruption consists in, (1) the loss of original righteousness; and (2) the presence of a constant proneness to evil, which is the root and origin of all actual sin. It is called "sin" I hope it would help God bless, Johnny |

426 | Are christians sinners or not? | Rom 3:23 | jlpangilinan | 69212 | ||
People are sinners, Christians of course commit sin, but not as what we are before before knowing Christ. For example, if I am a hired killer before, I killed in order to earn a living, then I am called for salvation, I dont think that I will commit this kind of sin again. Paul said: Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. Being a Christian, Christ live in us and not ours, so it is impossible to commit the same sin if Christ lives in you, if I still can be a hired killer at the same time a Christian what kind of christ is that lives in me? God bless, Johnny |

427 | was job a sinner | Rom 3:23 | jlpangilinan | 131928 | ||
Yes, but he was a perfect! Job 1:8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? God bless, |

428 | Why does the wageof sin have to be death | Rom 6:23 | jlpangilinan | 117472 | ||
Because it is God commanded it, no one can question the authority of God. It is His judgement and His work are perfect: De 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. Meaning if His judgment for sin is death, then it was the right judgement. God did not prevent Judgment and Justice, if His judgment for Sin is death He want to Justice to everyone! Job 8:3 Doth God pervert judgment? or doth the Almighty pervert justice? Job 8:4 If thy children have sinned against him, and he have cast them away for their transgression; God bless, |

429 | In what way did Christ fulfill the Law? | Rom 7:4 | jlpangilinan | 24777 | ||
Christ fulfill the Law? Yes! If you observe the two great commandments, what is it in the law of moses did you disobey. Nothing He is not destroy the law or any part of it: Mt 5:17 ¶ Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 17. Mt 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. 18. Mt 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. Jesus Christ just show us how to implement it. Sabbath: Jesus Christ do good things in sabbath whats wrong with that? Mr 3:4 And he saith unto them, Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, or to do evil? to save life, or to kill? But they held their peace. Mt 12:1 At that time Jesus went on the sabbath day through the corn; and his disciples were an hungred, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat. It is the implementation my friend: Included in the law of moses the teaching of "Thou shall not Kill" but it is also included in the same law whosoever saw did anything in the day of sabbath is punishable by death(stoned to death) there are conflict such as teaching. Another example: Joh 8:4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. Joh 8:5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? Joh 8:7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. 7. Joh 8:8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. Joh 8:9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. Why Jesus Christ not allows those people to stone that woman? Adultery is punishable by death in the law of moses. How about the teaching "thou shall not kill"? If Jesus Christ allow those people to kill that woman by stoning her It is the same that He allows those people to disobey the teaching of "Thou shall not Kill". It is in the implementation my friend, Follow the two great commandments that given to us, there is no conflict on it. I hope it would helps, Johnny |

430 | Is salvation revocable? | Rom 8:1 | jlpangilinan | 77583 | ||
Dont look back to the people that sometimes you feel that there are save but then go back to the old time vices. The question really there is are they really save? Being save is between you and God, not because you feel it but God knows are you really save or not. Christ said to his sheep (save persons): Joh 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: Joh 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. Joh 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. Joh 10:30 I and my Father are one. (no man is able to pluck them out of my father's hand") do you think it revocable? NO "No man is able to pluck them out". But how are we sure that we are belong to that pluck? Mt 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. Paul when has been save assesses that Christ live in the believer: a 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. If christ lives in you, do you think you can lose your salvation? Do you think Christ will leave you and let you go back to your old sins NO: Joh 14:18 ¶ I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. Mt 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always even unto the end of the world. Amen. "He is always be with us unto the end of the worls. Amen." About the catholics believed, leave it in the hand of God, God is justice enough to weight everyone salvation, we cant judge them, it is God will judge everyone of us. God bless, |

431 | Psalm 37:24 | Rom 8:1 | jlpangilinan | 77777 | ||
NGOP I think you did not understand what I mean here. Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. "this verse is a very big reason that a truly saved person cannot go back to his old sins, because it is Christ live in him. If Christ truly lives in us I dont we are still capable of killing stealing or raping so on and so fort." Quote" How do you connect the verse below on your conclusion? Psalm 37:24 though he stumble, he will not fall, for the LORD upholds him with his hand This verse says, even though we are saved, being in this sinful flesh, we will still sin ( stumble ) but God will not let us lose our salvation ( fall ) as He will hold our hands like the way He held Peter, as long as we do what Peter did "Lord, save me" ( Matt 14.30 )and end of quote. Answer. I carefully read my posts and I dont see that I said we cannot sin, but I wrote we cannot go back to our "old sin" For example I am a rapist and a killer murderer then received the truth of Christ and Christ live in me, do you think I am capable of raping again, murdering again, while Christ lives in me? What kind of christ is that lives in me if He still allow me to kill murder and raping again and again. Paul consider a murderer when he prosecuted the believer of Christ, but he received Christ, and Christ lives in Him did he prosecuted again the Christian? God bless, |

432 | How assured? | Rom 8:16 | jlpangilinan | 67120 | ||
actually you can answer you own question. Salvation is between you and God, you are the one who knows how you repented, you are the one knows how the holy spirit live in you, How do you believe or you are really believe in the ressurection of Christ. Apostle paul has written about himself how he live his Christain life: Ga 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. Do you think you are crucified with Christ? Do you think it is Him live in you and not yours? God bless, Johnny |

433 | What is the account we will give? | Rom 14:12 | jlpangilinan | 20283 | ||
Ro 14:10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. 10. Ro 14:11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. Ro 14:12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. If you read it from 14:10 the explanation of Apostle Paul we cannot judge our brothers,in 14: 11, every knee shall bow to Jesus Christ, everyone of us is Jesus Christ apostle, what Apostle paul can do is taught us how to be closer to God, but if we are not going to listen or to observe it is us is accountable for God. Meaning we accountable for the punishment we cannot point other person that because of them we fall and it is not fault of others but yours. I hope it will help Johnny |

434 | organ donation and The Bible | Rom 16:4 | jlpangilinan | 64963 | ||
Organ donation is not bad if you do it to save life, The doctrine of Jehovas Witnesses stated that they are not allowed to donate blood, but it is not written that to donate blood is prohibited in the bible. The blood is prohibited to eat. In the bible there are passages that even the church members ready to sacrifice thier lives for others: 1Jo 3:16 Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. We can sacrifice our lives to the benefit of others, organ donation indeed sometimes put the lives of the donors in danger, but if the motive is good (to save lives) I dont think God will prohibit that. Priscilla and Aquila helped Paul, take a look what paul said to them. Ro 16:3 Greet Priscilla and Aquila my helpers in Christ Jesus: Ro 16:4 Who have for my life laid down their own necks: unto whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles. They ready to give thier own lives for the sake of paul. God bless, Johnny |

436 | Is it a sin to routine drink alcohol | 1 Corinthians | jlpangilinan | 31669 | ||
Dear TooTooSmart, No! it is not a sin to drink alcohol, make sure that you will not get drunk. Today in our time even doctors encourage some patients to drink some wine because it helps if you have problem like high blood pressure, but drink it moderately or maybe two shot a day. Even Paul encourage Timothy to do the same thing: 1Ti 5:23 Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities. So it is depend on why you are drinking alcohol or wine, if it will helps you it is fine. God bless, Johnny |

437 | Is suicide unforgivable ? | 1 Corinthians | jlpangilinan | 77330 | ||
Who will repent for you after you suicide? 1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Ho could you confess after committing a suicide if dead already, dead cannot ask forgiveness. Heb 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: You cannot repent then commit the sins, it means you know it already that your going to do is sin. Heb 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, God bless, |

438 | Why Didn't Paul and Jesus Baptize? | 1 Cor 1:17 | jlpangilinan | 70482 | ||
Tim, Quote" My question is simply this: If baptism is essential to salvation why: a) Did Paul say, "For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel—not with words of human wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power." - 1 Cor. 1:17. It is right that Christ did not sent paul to baptize, but to preach. But did he baptize at anyone He did, at least three members He did baptize. Meaning the weight of works that given to paul is not to baptize becuase his works really is to evangelize the teaching of Christ. I we remember that paul travel from place to another, if to baptize everyone is the weight of his works he will never be able to go many place as he would. While paul evangelize it is sure that he leave the matter of baptism to other members as metion in Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism, So We are sure that they contradict each other in terms of teaching. For example, in our Church, there are several people that always evangelize the word of God in televsion, most of the time it is what they will do, broadcast, evangelize and do teaching in the air, most of the time of these people are dedicated to that so thier time to baptize members are few but they baptize. We have members that take care the baptism to those who join us because of those evangeslist. Paul could be like this, He take care of evangelize, and leave other matter to his members. God bless, Johnny |

439 | Solomon the wisest man? | 1 Cor 1:24 | jlpangilinan | 59506 | ||
I do believed that Solomon is the wisest man, bible says it I believed in the word of God. You said"I am not trying to point out any inaccuracy(ies) here as I believe the Word of God to be God breathed and God inspired" If you beleived in the word of God just keep it that way. then you contradict yourself here. I would think that there will be someone wiser than how God annointed Solomon but I would need help finding scriptures to prove it. Are you trying to question the authenticity of the bible? If the bible said that solomon is the wisest man then that is true. Christ is different if Solomon is the wisest man, what bible says about Christ is this: 1Co 1:24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. He is the power and wisdom of God! you cannot compare the two. God bless, Johnny |
