441 | new body | 1 Cor 15:51 | lionheart | 148096 | ||
Towanda greetings, The resuurrection is all part of Gods miraculous plan for us and our salvation.When Jesus comes back for His church a number of things will happen and they will happen quickly. (1Cor15:51-54) paints the perfect picture of what takes place when God gets us up.That old body wont be old anymore.It'll be a new one.Check this out ( 1Jn 3:2,3) tells us that what we will be has not yet been made known,when Jesus does come back it says we will be like him and that we shall see him as he is. Pretty incredible stuff wouldnt you say. In Christ, lionheart |

442 | What should I do? | Rom 14:1 | lionheart | 147905 | ||
Dear sister; My highest regards,your heart is in the right place. Let me encourage you with this,submission is equaly incumbent on the husband as well.(1 PT 3:7) Has your husband sat down with you and discussed the whys and wherefor's with you? Has he attempted to resolve things with these individuals? Are these doctrinal issues,personal issues? Personal issues are not a reason to leave a fellowship.Read Romans 14 Paul deals extensively with things that we would call disputable matters. Read that and see what Paul says.This is the heart we gotta have.The bible deals extensively with how we should resolve things with each other. Ultimatly it comes down to where your hearts are at with God.Things like this can negitively impact ones walk with God.Failure to deal with these things can endanger our walks with God.There is nothing worth jeopordising our with God. Even if you guys move to another church it doesnt mean the problem is solved. Our problems have a habit of following us wherever we go.Geographical changes or in this case church change rarely if ever work.1 Peter 4:8 tells us love covers over a multitude of sins. When we go into situatios with the this kind of heart we are going to see a lot of resolution in peoples lives.And when that happens people win and God is glorified. So dear heart dont throw the towel in now. In Christ, lionheart |

443 | Children are God's , not man's | Bible general Archive 2 | lionheart | 147813 | ||
uh-oh Greetings,the bible speaks volumes on how we should raise our children.Gods Word teaches that we are raise our children in the nurture aadmonision of the Lord. We are even ourselfs instructed not to be unequaly yoked with unbeleivers.This to is something we must pass on to our children.Now for a little biology. Please I'm not trying to be arogant here.It's just that when we look at the big picture things oft times become much simpler and less complicated.How can being an egg donor equate to giving our children to the heathen? Unless the egg has already been fertilised all we have is an egg.Certain things have happen before that egg becomes a life.If you dont have a child then you cant give it to the heathen. 2 Kings 16:3 refers to king Ahaz offering his son as a human sacrifice.All I'm saying is you gotta have something togive,you cant give what you dont have. In Christ, lionheart |

444 | What r God's principles? | Ps 119:33 | lionheart | 147793 | ||
Greetings, You already have what you need at your finger tips. Thats why we do 2 Timothy 2:15 everyday. Thats why we strive daily to work Gods Word in our lives.But if we dont study it,if we dont apply it then we will never know the principles or will of God. Jesus told the Apostles he would send the Holy Spirit which would teach them and guide them.That promise is for us today as well and has been fullfilled. It's all there in front of you.2 Peter 1:3 tells us God has given us all things that pertain to life and godlyness. It's up to us to trust God and apply ourselves. In Christ, lionheart |

445 | Didn't Jesus just become sinless? | 2 Cor 5:21 | lionheart | 147687 | ||
Nyet,no,absolutly not.The greek word ginosko (know) is used in 2 corinthians 5:21.When Jesus went to the cross he had no sin. Sin came as he took our sin upon Himself.Read OT guidlines regarding sin offerings.The common thread through all of the guidlines was that the sacrifice had to be spotless and without blemish.Jesus Christ fullfilled that requirement. If Jesus had any sin prior to his crucifixtion then he could not have legaly been the substitutional sacrifice for our sins. In Christ, lionheart |
||||||
446 | Was Jesus sinless? Did He ever sin? | 2 Cor 5:21 | lionheart | 147685 | ||
2 Corinthians 5:21 says He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf,that we might become the righteousness of God in him. Pretty self explanitory. I'm not being sarcastic or mean spirited here. Thats not my heart or intention. Jesus was sinless and took our sin upon himself. This is a discussion that comes up quite frequently. There are a lot of what if's would haves or could haves that come up durring these types of discissions.It is incumbent on people to get into the bible and do their homework.(2 Timothy 2:15) do this the answers are there. Read Hebrews it will give you an outstanding picture of the person and ministry of Jesus Christ. In Christ, lionheart |

447 | Bible says Jesus is God (Trinity) | 1 Tim 4:16 | lionheart | 147427 | ||
Greetings PJC, 1 Timothy 4:16 tells us to watch our life and doctrine closely.Everything we base our belief on is based on Gods inspired Word,it's not about personal opinion or denominational doctrine. In Jhn 10:30 Jesus states plainly I and the father are one.The Greek word here is heis-single. Have this person read the following verses,Titus 2:13,Heb 1:3 and Col 1:15-17. The bible is pretty explicite here about what you are telling this person. It's up to this individual change his or her mind.They cant change Gods Word to fit their theology,their theology must line up with the bible. Hope this helps. In Christ, lionheart |

448 | Terri's Passing | Bible general Archive 2 | lionheart | 147348 | ||
Dearest sister, I am deeply grieved by the recent turn of events in the life of Terri Schiavo.Every life has value in the eyes of God.Jesus says that we are the light of the world,we gotta let that light shine.We can ill afford to ignore things or wait for stuff to happen.I want to encourage you with this,Pray,even if your the only one praying,pray!Gods Word tells us the prayer of the rightious avails much.Prayer is what moves Gods heart.Proverbs 31:8,9 Tells us that as men and women of God part of our call in life is to stand up for those who cant stand for themselves,to defend the weak and those who cannot defend themselves.We gotta believe Ro 8:28,37.We gotta stand for God every day,because if we dont there will be more Terri's. Dear heart just remember that you and God make a majority in any situation.We can make a difference.Phil 4:13.You are not helpless.Take heart and claim Phil4:19 God is no slacker. PS.God will have the last word. In Christ, lionheart |

449 | Is David really a man after God's heart? | 1 Sam 13:14 | lionheart | 147176 | ||
1 Samuel3:14 States that David is a man after Gods own heart,these are words straight from the mouth of God.This wasnt Samuels opinion or any other mans opinion.This is what says and what God says goes.Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie,Nor a son of man,that he should repent;Has He said,and will he not do it? Or has He spoken,and will He not make it good? This verse speaks volumes about God's nature. God never said David was perfect. We see through out the bible where great men of God got into sin,but in the majority of cases they repented and returned to God. Because David was a man after Gods own heart there was no question about what he had to do about his sin and that was to repent and turn to God.Read Psalms,it gives a great account of how David battled with sin and it also gives account of his heart to deal with his sin in a Godly manner. God always forgave him. We have a great overview throughout the entire bible of where man is at with God and what people need to do to get right with God.It was no different in Davids day. It's not that David didnt have a problem with killing people,he had very hard choices to make,and you better believe that the physical and spiritual well being of Gods people were at the heart of most of the decisions and choices he made.Go back and look at how and why wars were fought.Look at why God would send his people into battle. I think if you do this things will be much clearer for you. |

450 | Is being buried tha same as baptism? | Rom 6:1 | lionheart | 145934 | ||
Brother; I think we may be missing something here. Pauls treatment of this subject in Romans 6 and Colossians 2:12.Maybe we we are thinking of two different things here.Baptism puts the focus on what Jesus did and accomplished for us. No we were not physicaly crucified and buried with Jesus.But our sin was nailed to the cross with Him.The day we accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour our old man died with him.Isn't Baptism a clear portrayal of the entire salvation experience?(Death,Burial,and resurrection of Jesus Christ.)I will not challenge anyones faith here,but I would encourage all to carefully search out Gods Word.Gods Word is rich,and God means for his people seek and cultivate His Word in our everyday lives. In Christ, lionheart |

451 | kreature, immersed into His death | Rom 6:1 | lionheart | 145858 | ||
Brother a quick question here.In Romans Chapter 6 Paul draws a pretty clear picture of baptism.Does not Baptism as Paul portrays it represent the death burial and resurrection of Jesus. Colossians 2:12 states that we were buried with him in baptism. I think Paul makes it quite clear what baptism is all about,and for that matter so did Jesus. In Christ, lionheart |

452 | MESSAGE-Good Effort, But Is It A Bible? | Eccl 12:12 | lionheart | 145786 | ||
Greetings my brother; I would almost have to agree with you here,I think it's a great read,but I would not have to rely on it as a study tool.I've found that with a number of the paraphrases thing get to general and to that just leaves thing to open to private interpretation. Excellent post. lionheart. |

453 | Clean and unclean animals? | Gen 7:2 | lionheart | 144947 | ||
I cant back this up with scripture but I remember reading something about animals with split hooves.I believe this was how Noah was able to differentiate between clean and unclean animals. Hope this helps. In Christ, lionheart |

454 | The "goodness" of man? | Jer 17:9 | lionheart | 144945 | ||
Greetings my sister,mans problem isn't a problem with self esteem or self identity and I'm sure this is no recent revelation to you.Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is more deceitful than all else And is desperately sick;Who can understand it? This is us apart from God.This is the old man.The world wants an easy Gospel,Cheap Grace.We as comitted disciples of Jesus know different.We know that our salvation cost God his dearest blood and without Jesus Christ we are lost.The non Christian by nature would prefer not to believe this.They would prefer that we preach a watered down soft shoed gospel.I'm OK your OK philosophy will never work. We must be loving but also uncompromising when it comes to preaching the Gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.Keep telling it like it is my sister. Love ya, lionheart |

455 | We live together but are not married? | NT general Archive 1 | lionheart | 144835 | ||
Dear brother this may come off as harsh,but I'm gonna be straight up with you.The both of you will gain nothing from this relationship as it now stands.Please read 1 Corinthians 6:18-20.If the both of you truly want to follow God then you must break off this relationship as it now is.This may be the way the world does things but not Gods people. I only say this from past experience.God can't and will not bless this type of relationship.This type of relationship is only a contract for failure.You both need to be onhundred percent sold out to doing it Gods way. If not you are both doomed before you even get started.Break this of and do things in a godly manner.If she is not comitted to this then you need to look to God for other options.God wants to bless us,but we gotta do it his way. Feel free to contact me at my e-mail address,I would be bleesed to share more with you. PS- God will provide a way out,let him. In Christ, lionheart |

456 | Need Scriptures on God's Love | 1 John 4:1 | lionheart | 144823 | ||
Greetings LoveUJesus and welcome to the forum. 1 John 4 is an excellent passage of scripture on Gods love and why we too can now truly love. 1 Corinthians 13 is also a must read. In Christ, lionheart |

457 | Extreme Metal... clarifying | 2 Cor 6:14 | lionheart | 144681 | ||
You asked a question and you asked people to give critical answers.You got em. I will stand by any mans right to express themselves.I wont condemn the sound,I have a wide range of musical interests myself,good music is good music no matter what the style.But I will call to task what comes out of a mans mouth.There is enough good music out there to listen to without giving creedence to those who would degrade it by what comes out of there mouth,and if you think lyrics dont have impact think again. No dis on you Josh because there is probably music I listen to that individuals would be just as critical of. lionheart |

458 | important | Heb 10:24 | lionheart | 144638 | ||
Good day and God bless 9-1-1.Genesis 2:18a-The the Lord God said,It is not good for the man to be alone. God wastes np time in letting us know where his heart is at. God is not an isolationist.Our God is a relational God.He's about relationships.It's never been Gods intention that anyone should be alone.To those who say they dont need to go to church to worship God,fine.I would seriously wonder where that individuals heart is at.Going to Church is about so much more than worshipping God,it's important dont get me wrong but there is more to the picture.Hebrews 10:24,25 Read this.God didnt create any lone rangers.We need each other,God knew that we couldnt make it on our own.The old addage there is strength in numbers is right on target.Church while it is a time of worship is also a time of learning,a time of encouragment,prayer.It's a time for the body to be united together.Prayerfully this is'nt the only time we make for these things in our walk with God.None of us will make it to heaven alone.Think about it.Thats part of the reason God made us brothers and sisters in Him. In Christ, lionheart |

459 | Is Extreme Metal appropriate? | 2 Cor 6:14 | lionheart | 144549 | ||
2 Corinthians 6:14- Do not be bound together with unbelievers,for what partnership have righteousness with lawlessness,or what fellowship has light with darkness? Read this verse and the 2 following it.The question I would have for you at this point would be why you would even want to identify with something that is so blatantly opposed to who God is and what God stands for. Paul tells us all things are permissable but not all things are beneficial. Jesus said that it's not what goes into a man that makes him unclean but what comes out of the man that makes him unclean.I'll tell you this though,what you put in is gonna impact what comes out.So I will leave you with this,what do you want comming out of you? Think about it. In Christ, Lionheart |

460 | Do I have to wait until we are divorced? | Prov 4:23 | lionheart | 144544 | ||
My friend I've been where your at now and my heart goes out to you.More than ever now you gotta be gaurding your heart. Proverbs 4:23-Watch over your heart with all diligence,For from it flow the springs of life. Right about now you are very hurt and probably very vulnerable. Stay close to God,as close as you can.Jesus told the disciples in Matthew 28 that he would always be with them.Claim this for yourself now.Right now Jesus Christ is the best friend you got.Let him be your constant companion,because thats what he is.Dont concern yourself with looking for someone else now,look for Jesus he wont be hard to find.Do this and He will carry you through all of this. In Christ, lionheart |
