441 | strongs concordance mediums | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 197818 | ||
Hello silvercoins, Welcome to the forum! I don't think that Strongs has the word mediums because Strongs is compatible with the King James, and I don't think the word mediums is in the King James. Try using the word witch or witchcraft. The NASB does use the word mediums. I don't think any translation uses the word psychics, but, of course, I could be wrong about that. God bless John |

444 | mathew 10:11 | Matt 10:14 | stjohn | 197085 | ||
Hi kmo, Here is something that may clear the air on this subject, I hope it helps. God bless John Matthew 10:11 Ver. 11. "And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter,.... As Christ had instructed them in what manner they were to travel, so he directs them where to go, and who to ask for, and take up their abode with, in the several towns and villages to which they should come; that as soon as they had entered any town or village, they should, in the first place, inquire, who in it is worthy; not of them, as the Arabic version reads, nor of the Gospel they preached, or of the grace of God, of which no man is worthy: and besides, who could answer to such a question when asked? Who in any town, or city, could tell who in it were worthy of Christ, of his Gospel, and ministers, to which they were all equally strangers before they came among them? Nor does it mean a man famous for piety and religion, or one that feared God, and was a worshipper of him, but an hospitable man; one that was very liberal; who was willing and ready to entertain strangers; for such a man they would want, having neither money nor food: and so the same word, in the Hebrew language, signifies "to be worthy", and "to give alms", because an eleemosynary man, or a man given to alms, was reckoned by the Jews a very worthy man: they thought giving of alms to be a matter of merit".-- John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible. |

445 | can she be baptized? | Rom 5:8 | stjohn | 196985 | ||
Sorry that's, 'judge', not, 'gudge'. I don't know what a gudge is, but it doesn't sound too good. :-) | ||||||
446 | can she be baptized? | Rom 5:8 | stjohn | 196984 | ||
Dear Brother, If as you say, this lady has, repented of her sins, and wants to do the right thing, then who are we to gudge her? Titus 3:5 He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, Matt 9:13 "But go and learn what this means: 'I DESIRE COMPASSION, AND NOT SACRIFICE,' for I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners." Rom 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Gal 2:17 "But if, while seeking to be justified in Christ, we ourselves have also been found sinners, is Christ then a minister of sin? May it never be! God bless John |

450 | Ammonites and Moabites today? | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 196895 | ||
Hi Cheri, I found this at, http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01431b.htm -- "Justin Martyr refers to them as a numerous people in his day, but in the course of the next century they vanish completely from the view of history." -- There is much more to read about them of course, but it looks like as far as; who they might be related to today?... They are dust in the wind. However, you can probably find more and varied opinions, as to, where they may have gone or even if they are, somehow, still around. :-) God bless John |

Hi big.. Spirit and soul are probably more, then less, intertwined, so, I think, both, go to wherever one goes, after death. Of course a spirit/soul apart from God has no real life in it, or light of, or from God, so, we consider it, dead. God bless John |

452 | difference between the soul and spirit? | Bible general Archive 4 | stjohn | 196773 | ||
Hi bigpinky, Welcome to the forum! Thats a very good question! I'm not sure I understand the difference, very well, but I'll take a shot. The line between Soul and Spirit is a hazy one indeed: Soul; is that part of us that is our consciousness, our wants/desires, our feelings, our very thoughts, that which we perceive as, ‘self’, is our soul, it has been called, the seat of appetite. Spirit; sometimes is used to mean breath, indicating, that which is vital to life, also sometimes used in describing a tendency toward a particular behavior, (i.e. he has a lying spirit, a leaning toward, or an untruthfulness or unfaithfulness in spirt). Spirit and soul are often both looked at as, that part of man that is unseen and sentient, or conscious, or aware of the fact that we are alive. I hope that helps. Gods bless John |

453 | living in sin(out of wedlock) ministry? | John 3:16 | stjohn | 196760 | ||
Dear Delivered, Welcome to the forum! I wouldn't want to be in his spot, that would be tempting indeed, to say the least! You are in a tough spot too, yes? First I'd like to say, I agree with Val, take him/her at their word. No sense in accusing. I'm encouraged to hear you are praying about this, I pray with you. But, also, you may try to, gently show them, even though they, "say", they are platonic in their relationship, it does look bad, and although, just looking bad may not seem so bad to us, the Word of God, has this to say: Eph 5:3 "But immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints;" So you see, their, position, living together, regardless, may not be appropriate, at all, for the body of Christ. As saints, we mustn't even give the, 'slightest impression', of sexual impurity. I hope this helps you. God bless John |

454 | Why replace a wolf for a lion | Is 54:10 | stjohn | 196689 | ||
Hi K, I don't really see where any "laying" is being done, Is 11:6, says, "the wolf will dwell with the lamb," And then, Is 65:25, says, "The wolf and the lamb will graze together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox;" maybe someone would know, if, or where, it says they will "lay" together? Maybe another translation? John |

455 | Why replace a wolf for a lion | Is 54:10 | stjohn | 196682 | ||
Hello K, Welcome to the Forum! The Lion, and the Lamb, are symbols of Christ; in Rev 5:5 Jesus Christ is represented as the Lion of Judah, the concurring Lion that is worthy to open the seals and the book, "and one of the elders *said to me, "Stop weeping; behold, the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so as to open the book and its seven seals." In Is 53:7, scripture, speaks of the Christ that was to come and take away our sins as the perfect sacrifice, humble, and pure, he was led like a lamb to the cross where He would suffer and die for our sins. "He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He did not open His mouth; Like a lamb that is led to slaughter, And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers, So He did not open His mouth." God bless John |

456 | love god ,godly love lev.19 ,19 | 1 Cor 13:1 | stjohn | 196554 | ||
Easton's Bible Dictionary LOVE This word seems to require explanation only in the case of its use by our Lord in his interview with "Simon, the son of Jonas," after his resurrection (John 21:16, 17). When our Lord says, "Lovest thou me?" he uses the Greek word _agapas_; and when Simon answers, he uses the Greek word _philo_, i.e., "I love." This is the usage in the first and second questions put by our Lord; but in the third our Lord uses Simon's word. The distinction between these two Greek words is thus fitly described by Trench:, "_Agapan_ has more of judgment and deliberate choice; _philein_ has more of attachment and peculiar personal affection. Thus the 'Lovest thou' (Gr. agapas) on the lips of the Lord seems to Peter at this moment too cold a word, as though his Lord were keeping him at a distance, or at least not inviting him to draw near, as in the passionate yearning of his heart he desired now to do. Therefore he puts by the word and substitutes his own stronger 'I love' (Gr. philo) in its room. A second time he does the same. And now he has conquered; for when the Lord demands a third time whether he loves him, he does it in the word which alone will satisfy Peter ('Lovest thou,' Gr. phileis), which alone claims from him that personal attachment and affection with which indeed he knows that his heart is full." In 1 Corinthians 13 the apostle sets forth the excellency of love, as the word "charity" there is rendered in the Revised Version. |

458 | Mmm, not really an answer to the questio | John 1:1 | stjohn | 196471 | ||
Hello oxtobyd, I think Val has indeed answered the question well. The problem is, our puny human understanding. It is difficult, nay, it is impossible, for us to see that Jesus and the Father are, 'truly one', in the most profound sense. Jesus can truly say, when he is looking at the Father, He is looking at Himself! John 14:7 "If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; from now on you know Him, and have seen Him." John 14:9 Jesus *said to him, "Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, 'Show us the Father'? I hope this helps. God bless John |

Hello Faridah, A warm welcome to the forum! I would like also to welcome you to the family of Christians, who can honestly say that we don't measure up to the kind of prayer-life that we should. I don't believe that anyone who calls themselves Christian, can say that they spend enough time with God, we all, if we are honest, feel inadequate before God. May I say, your call for help, is heard, and will be answered, if you direct it to Him who is adequate. When the Apostles would look for our Lord they would most often find Him praying to the Father. Who of us can say that we come even close to that kind of prayer-life? Be encouraged, that you know that you need Him, and you at lest have a desire to know Him better. Keep praying, and as little as that may be, or as much as that may be, we all know, it will never be enough to assuage our feeling that it, just isn't enough, to give Him the thanks that He really deserves, for what He has done for us. Be blessed my Sister! When I think of you, I will pray for you. God bless John |
