521 | what sin, is fiery indignation hell? | Heb 10:26 | jlpangilinan | 36572 | ||
If we know already that things that we are going to do is sin, it really no more sacrifice for us because we done it with full knowledge that this things are sin but we still do it intentionally. That sins reffered to these: Apostasy Heb 10:26-27 Idolatry De 29:20,27-28; 32:19-20,22; Jos 23:16; 2Ki 22:17; Ps 78:58-59; Jer 44:3 Sin, in saints Ps 89:30-32; 90:7-9; 99:8; 102:9-10; Isa 47:6 Extreme, against those who oppose the gospel Ps 2:2-3,5; 1Th 2:16 Some explanation from easton: The supposition that God will ultimately secure the repentance and restoration of all sinners is equally unscriptural. There is not the slightest trace in all the Scriptures of any such restoration. Sufferings of themselves have no tendency to purify the soul from sin or impart spiritual life. The atoning death of Christ and the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit are the only means of divine appointment for bringing men to repentance. Now in the case of them that perish these means have been rejected, and "there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins" (Heb 10:26-27). God bless, Johnny |

522 | Could the "2 witnesses" be ... | Heb 11:13 | jlpangilinan | 53339 | ||
They all died in faith according to the assessment of Paul Heb 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. Heb 11:13 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

524 | Scriptures on testing? | James 1:13 | jlpangilinan | 62986 | ||
What I remembered is that abraham tempted by God to know his faith. God allowed satan to test the faith of job to God Mt But in the new testament Christ teach us how to pray to the Father. Part of that prayer is "do not bring us to the test" but deliver us from evil. 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. Mt 6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. 1Co 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. James said God "God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man" Jas 1:13 ¶ Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: God bless, |

525 | Christians? | James 1:22 | jlpangilinan | 85144 | ||
No! believing in Christ means to have faith and redy to obey His commandments. In John 3:16 it was mentioned "whosoever believed" but believed defines deeply to follow Christ and have faith in Him: Mt 7:21 ¶ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. "Who will do it the will of the Father" Joh 14:15 ¶ If ye love me, keep my commandments. Joh 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. I hope it would helps. God bless, |

526 | Difference of Religon and Christianity? | James 1:27 | jlpangilinan | 37184 | ||
Religion can be any religion: i.e. moslims, buddist, and other beliefs that we have in our days. And Christianity are belongs to a kind of religion, or one of the religion. Christianity or Christian is the religion derrive from our Lord Jesus Christ i.e. catholics, protestants. There are other religion claiming that they are Christian but denying the being God of Jesus Christ. Almost all of the Christian religions also claiming that they are the true religion that derrive from Christ, but this is the kind of pure religion that mentions by James: Jas 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. Easton Bible Dictionary: Christian the name given by the Greeks or Romans, probably in reproach, to the followers of Jesus. It was first used at Antioch. The names by which the disciples were known among themselves were "brethren," "the faithful," "elect," "saints," "believers." But as distinguishing them from the multitude without, the name "Christian" came into use, and was universally accepted. This name occurs but three times in the New Testament (Ac 11:26; 26:28; 1Pe 4:16). |

527 | Only church | James 1:27 | jlpangilinan | 59504 | ||
No problem my friend! it is only his claim not Jesus Christ! The pure religion is not just by the name according to: Jas 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. Re 1:3 ¶ Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. p.s. I dont know if you are talking about the Church of Christ that originate here in the Philippines? They are not Christians they denied that Christ is God. God bless, |

528 | Empty inside being a Roman Catholic? | James 2:17 | jlpangilinan | 24768 | ||
Catrose62 I saw many advice for you, they are great. I hope you have time to read mine. Convincing other people to change thier belief is very hard without the interventions of Holy Spirit. My question to you is what is your religion, what are your doctrine in your own church? You can convince other people that your believed is true not because you are very good in the debate, or you almost know what is written in the bible, but by setting your self as an example. If we other people think that our faith is the true is just show it to them. We can convince them if they saw that we really follow the doctrine of a true Christian, it is really in our daily life. If you are a baptist or a pentecostal show it to him that your believed is true not by telling him that his believed is wrong but to show him the fruit of a true Christian. Pray for him ask the guidance of the Lord (I know you do) I am not a catholic, at in my own views what I can say yes we notice of too many different of thier doctrines, but then it is God will justify of us all! We cannot say that all of them will go to heaven or go to hell it is only God can justify that. I have many friends belongs to that congregations and they are good persons, so I always pray for them, God has his own way of justifying people, it is in His hand. If your husband saw that people from your congregation did the right things always, it is not hard to convince your husband to change his belief. He himself will notice the beauty of your congregation and then if he realize that he himself will ask you to help him how to practice your believed. What can say is"show him the fruit of a true christian. True Christian cannot recognize as a good debater or a good preacher but as a good fruit, because it was mentioned in the scriptures that: Mt 7:17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. Mt 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. I am not telling that you are not doing what I mentioned here. Just a friendly reminder. We in our congregation we are not really imposing that we are the right, but we tried to show the good fruit of it. God bless, Johnny |

529 | do teachers agree on issue of lost salva | James 3:1 | jlpangilinan | 55508 | ||
Salvation when you received it is impossible to lose it. I think salvation is not a simple thing that sometime you have it and lost again and again. But we have to be reminded that being save is between you and God. The question is are we really saved. If we are save, we are belong to the flocks of Christ, and no one can fluck us from His father hands: 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. So if you are save, how can you lose it if is Christ gave the assurance that no one can pluck them out from His Fathers hand? The questions maybe raise that how about those person that sometimes being a member of the church received baptism but after a while become a backslider? If we notice those person sometime become worse than before, they commit horrible crimes such us rape, murder, and other form of evil that only not save person can do? The question again is are they really recieved the salvation? Here I cannot judge them only God can justify that. Here is my explaination regarding that. If we are a save person it is impossible for us to commit those evil thing because as 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. If we received salvation it is Christ live in us, if Christ live in us it is impossible to lose salvation once you received it. I hope it would help God bless, Johnny |

530 | Are we told to pray for leaders | James 5:16 | jlpangilinan | 18774 | ||
Yes we told told to pray one for another: Jas 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Not just for our leaders but also for our enemies: Mt 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; Thanks, Johnny |

531 | Did Jesus go to hell? | 1 Peter | jlpangilinan | 80324 | ||
Yes! His dead body remain in "hell" or grave in three days. Lu 24:46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: One of the many definition of "hell" is Sheol or grave: (1.) Sheol, occurring in the Old Testament sixty-five times. This word sheol is derived from a root-word meaning "to ask," "demand;" hence insatiableness (Pr 30:15-16). It is rendered "grave" thirty-one times (Ge 37:35; 42:38; 44:29,31; 1Sa 2:6, etc.). Quote "He says to the man next to Him that he will be with him in paradise" end of quote, it seems that luke 23:43 means that He promise to the person "today" now that this person will be with Him in paradise. You are right that he rtemains in grave in three days after that Christ resurrected. It is a promise my friend not on that hour itself. God bless, |

532 | Why so many destined for Hell? | 1 Pet 2:8 | jlpangilinan | 70298 | ||
God not create people to send to Hell. Hell is reserved for the devils: Mt 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: God created Adam and Eve out of love: Jo 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. Because God is Love He want to express His love, as love without expressing it is not love at all but selfisness. So God want to express His love He created us to share with His glory. Hell is not the part of the plan of God for man, if we read the Gen God prepared a very good habitat for man, no sickness, no death. Because God is Love He created human being with free will not like a robot but a human being "created in his likeness" a human being that have a power to choose and to love. Death and suffering is a consequences of disobedience of adam and eve. If our love one will suffer forever it is in the hand of God He is just If we remember that there were no more suffering in Heaven: Re 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. So if we are in heaven, then we sorrow about our love ones in hell, Re 21:4 will be a lie, as it was written there will no crying. God is justice, maybe we dont decern anything happened, we dont know really everything in the minds of God, but faith will help us, and He will show to us everything if we are in heaven. This questions of ours will be answered 1Co 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. God bless, Johnny |

533 | Was Noah's flood world-wide? | 1 Pet 3:21 | jlpangilinan | 62904 | ||
In the two verses below it was written that God brought flood upon the earth and destroy all flesh which is the breath of life. When God said destroy "all" meaning all, not just in the particular area. If we have believed in Him when bible said world wide we have to believed that it is true otherwise what is it we believed in? Gen 7:17 Then the flood came upon the earth for forty days, and the water increased and lifted up the ark, so that it rose above the earth. Gen 6:17 "Behold, I, even I am bringing the flood of water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life, from under heaven; everything that is on the earth shall perish. I believed that the flood is world wide, I believed that God can do it. If we have a scienctific evidence about that flood even science can prove that can possibly happen. But if you really believe in the word of God why seeking for the scientific evidence? Just believe! God bless, Johnny |

Emmaus, Did someone baptize naaman?

536 | what is the doctrine of Nicolatitans? | 2 Pet 2:15 | jlpangilinan | 73804 | ||
wELCOME TO THE FORUM! Nicolaitanes The church at Ephesus (Re 2:6) is commended for hating the "deeds" of the Nicolaitanes, and the church of Pergamos is blamed for having them who hold their "doctrines" (Re 2:15). They were seemingly a class of professing Christians, who sought to introduce into the church a false freedom or licentiousness, thus abusing Paul's doctrine of grace (comp. 2Pe 2:15-16,19), and were probably identical with those who held the doctrine of Baalam (q.v.), Re 2:14.

537 | light fellowship with one another? | 1 John 1:7 | jlpangilinan | 68628 | ||
I dont know if you are looking for this passages or you are asking the explaination in this verse. Walk in light, we have to follow Christ, to have fellowship with one another, here we need our co churches to have fellowship with them to help one another increase our faith, through the help of one another. 1Jo 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 1Jo 1:8 ¶ If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 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 God bless, Johnny |

538 | Can a born again sin as they did before? | 1 John 1:8 | jlpangilinan | 67777 | ||
No! If you received Christ as your personal savior and being born again, you cannot do any sin that you usually do, That is why you called born again, because youre been born again. Paul said in this passages, if Christ within you you live Christ and not yours. 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. If Christ live in you, how could you do a sin like we did before. For example if I am a rapist, become a born again, then Christ live with me, if Christ live with me how could I raped again. If will do that again meaning Christ is not live in me, and I am not really beeing been born again. God bless, Johnny |

539 | Can brain damage lead to damnation? | 1 John 1:9 | jlpangilinan | 17536 | ||
In the court of law, we know that if any person commit crime but after a several investagation found this person has a mental illness this person is going to be aquited or to be turnover to agencies that will take care the person. I'll quoted some verses here: Heb 5:13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. I quoted this verse, because sometimes we acquited persons that has a mental illness because we consider them like a child, a child that doesent know righteousness. In my point of view is this. If we (human) can do this kind of exemption, do you think God of all mercy will do? My answer for those kind of case it is in the hand of our God, that can justify everything. Johnny |

540 | A mental Affair | 1 John 1:9 | jlpangilinan | 71618 | ||
Yes, You are right the bible says that Mt 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. God forgiveness, yes but I dont think we do it again and again and asking forgiveness again and again. That verse is very wisely said by our Lord Jesus Christ, that we dont have to do it to commit sin. Christ already prohibit us to think lust to anyone, so that it will not start a spark to attempt or to commit adultery. If we always think of other woman or man aside from our spouse, we could be commit it in reality, so Christ Christ already prohibited that root of adultery. For example the 10 commandments said thou shalt not kill but Christ said: Mt 5:22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. In that verse if we can see Christ already prohibit the root of hatred that can cause of killing. God bless, Johnny |
