61 | Blaspheme against the Holy Ghost? | 2 Pet 1:10 | Pastor Glenn | 62621 | ||
Brother Moran, "... I don't see anything is the passage that indicates that such a person can never be saved again or can never repent...." "...No where else in Scripture are we told that it is impossible for someone to repent. ..." There is other scripture that speaks of the unforgivable sin of blaspheme against the Holy Ghost: Mark 3:28 "Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter; 29but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation"-- 30because they said, "He has an unclean spirit." Luke 12:10"And anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but to him who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven. " Could it be that these are related to Heb 6 God Bless, Pastor Glenn |

63 | How do we know that we are truly saved? | 1 John 3:24 | Pastor Glenn | 141233 | ||
How do we know that we are truly saved? Are there any scriptures that tell us if we are saved? If so, please tell me what they are. Just because I am a pastor does not mean that I really know the right answers. So do not see this as a test that I will grade. :-) Honestly, I do not feel that these questions are discussed enough, so I will not respond except to clarify or ask followup questions. Any comments?

64 | Is Jesus Christ God? Is He your Lord? | 1 John 4:2 | Pastor Glenn | 157103 | ||
Hello deep input, You wrote: “Verses 8-11, however, say not to call anybody rabbi(pastor), father, master. Is it ok to ignore this because we feel in our hearts that it is ok to call people pastor or father. “ You equate rabbi and pastor. But the bible or dictionary does not. Why did you throw that (pastor) into the scripture? Mat 23 8 "But do not be called Rabbi; for One is your Teacher, and you are all brothers. 9 "Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven. 10 "Do not be called leaders; for One is your Leader, that is, Christ. 11 "But the greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 "Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted. rabbi n 1: spiritual leader of a Jewish congregation; qualified to expound and apply Jewish law 2: a Hebrew title of respect for a Jewish scholar or teacher Pastor 1: A Christian minister or priest having spiritual charge over a congregation or other group. 2: A layperson having spiritual charge over a person or group. 3: A shepherd. You do not need to call me “pastor”, “brother” will do just fine. I have a question for you too. Is Jesus Christ God? Is He your Lord? Brother Glenn |

65 | John 8:24- What does this mean to you? | 1 John 4:2 | Pastor Glenn | 157160 | ||
Hello Deep input, I hope that you at least watched the show. Also keep in mind that confusion about which religion is really true is no more excusable than confusion concerning counterfeit money. Just as we are expected to know the key features of our money, we are also warned about false Christs. We are not warned of false Jehovah, mind you, but again, false Christs. I do agree with you concerning unholiness in the church. Having the right religion is not the major factor. However, have the right Christ is the one most crucial factor for salvation. Joh 8:24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. What does this verse mean to you Deep input? Brother Glenn |

66 | Does Islam fit? | 2 John 1:7 | Pastor Glenn | 129223 | ||
mommapbs, I wanted to add a bit by pointing out the way that the Koran (or is it "Coran"?) recognizes the prophets of the bible and attempts to build on their teachings after "rewriting" lies into them. I had a muslim co-worker that I tried to witness to a few times after getting very much aquinted. This led to my reading up from the Koran from the public library. Want to know what I found in it? The Koran rewrites the story of Abraham offering up Ishmael instead of Isaac, thereby making Egyptians children of the "promise" to make Mohommed greater than Jesus Christ. This shows how important it is to point out the truth of how the Jews are God's chosen people. Also how important it is to point out God's identification of Himself as the "God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob". How all of the new and old testament prophets were Jews. So why does Islam hate Jews? Why does the Koran teach hate towards Jews? Why do they thow out the bible and replace it with the Koran? The bible builds one book on top of the other using historical facts and predictions of future events that have been fulfilled time after time. When the new testament was written, sciptures from the old testament were properly used to build on, like Isaiah 53. The problem with Islam is that it shows the same likes and dislikes of an angry fellow we see in Rev 12. Also, Jesus taught of building on a rock. The scriptures teach of the "Stone" that the builders refused is become the head of the corner. The Chief cornerstone. Psalm 118:22 The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. Matthew 21:42 Jesus said to them, "Have you never read in the Scriptures: "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. This was the LORD's doing, And it is marvelous in our eyes'? Mark 12:10 Have you not even read this Scripture: "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone. Luke 20:17 Then He looked at them and said, "What then is this that is written: "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone'? Acts 4:11 This is the "stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.' 1 Peter 2:7 Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone," Yes, Islam is antichrist to the fullest extent. They do not build on anything but lies. Yes we should speak out against all sin even as John the Baptist did and was beheaded. So we must consider our loved ones when they "shack up" instead of getting married, or seek wholesale devorce, or get drunken, or curse, or lie or steal while still calling themselves "Christian" even within our churches. We owe it to them to speak out with gentleness and love. Any comments? Pastor Glenn |

69 | could this scripture be related? Zech3:1 | Jude 1:9 | Pastor Glenn | 64458 | ||
EdB, You are right about the danger of them idolizing his tomb. They had, after all, idolized the bronze serpent that God had Moses to set up. By the way, could this scripture be related? Zechariah 3 1 Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the Angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to oppose him. 2And the LORD said to Satan, "The LORD rebuke you, Satan! The LORD who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Is this not a brand plucked from the fire?" It just sounds very simular to Jude 1:9. Pastor Glenn |

70 | KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS? | Rev 1:1 | Pastor Glenn | 94631 | ||
Truthfinder, You said: "All through the Greek scriptures, a clear distinction between "God" and "Jesus" is made." But, what is the implications of these scriptures in relation to our "salvation" and Christ being "Lord"?: 1 Corinthians 12:3 Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 1:2 To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be holy, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ–their Lord and ours: Mat 22 41While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, 42"What do you think about the Christ[4] ? Whose son is he?" "The son of David," they replied. 43He said to them, "How is it then that David, speaking by the Spirit, calls him 'Lord'? For he says, 44" 'The Lord said to my Lord: "Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet." '[5] 45If then David calls him 'Lord,' how can he be his son?" Revelation 11:15 Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdoms[11:15 NU-Text and M-Text read [kingdom ... has become.] ] of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!" Revelation 17:14 They will make war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will overcome them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings–and with him will be his called, chosen and faithful followers." Revelation 19:16 On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. But wait one minute, notice that David called Christ Lord and also Rev 19:16 calls Him "LORD OF LORDS". What are the implications? What is the significance? Pastor Glenn |

71 | Jesus is wisdom argument leads nowhere. | Rev 3:14 | Pastor Glenn | 96633 | ||
Truthfinder, The Jesus is wisdom argument leads nowhere. Quoting from Radioman2's post: "...This passage is speaking of Wisdom, and for those who teach this is Jesus the evidence is not there. Another point is that the Jehovah's Witnesses believe that Jesus was God's first creation and therefore believe this to be speaking of Jesus and like to use different Bible Versions that would indicate that this Wisdom was created...." By this strange reasoning, God was not really "God" until after He "created" wisdom. How could He have been God before He had wisdom. Can you see that this Jehovah's Witness argument is both anti-Jehovah, as well as, anti-Christ? Maybe by reading somewhere between the lines of the NWT it is written: "Duh..., well I think I will create wisdom"? :o( Pastor Glenn |

72 | The scriptures and U.S. Mid East Policy | Rev 12:12 | Pastor Glenn | 137828 | ||
Hello Forum, I was recently led to a web-site that complains that Christian Zionists are helping to ruin the U.S. foreign policy in the middle east. They are saying that Zionists do not want peace. I think that the real danger is not Israel or Christian Zionism. I think that it is a lie to say that Zionists do not want peace. I heard that Arafat refused a Palestinian State deal years ago. The Islamic movement clearly wants to destroy Israel. Remember too, that before Israel even became a nation during WW II, the Nazis searched them out and destroyed 6 million Jews. This makes the scriptures perfectly clear. Satan hates Jews and Christians. Look at what is happening around the world and compare to Rev chapter 12: Rev 12:12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. Rev 12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. Rev 12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. Rev 12:15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. Rev 12:16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ. Notice that Satan hates both the "woman" (Israel), as well as, her seed (Christians). Please check out a video called "Former Muslims Testify About Islam" by going to the following link: http://www.johnankerberg.org/TV/ankjasrm-islam-wmv.html#IPR1 This is a real eye opener. Islam is a Satanic religion that hates Jews and Christians just as Nazism wanted to destroy Jews and Christians before. Even now Christian are being killed in Sudan, Africa! This is the spirit of Anti-Christ: 1John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 1John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 1John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 2John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. I know that some Christians feel that it is wrong to look at the world with a newspaper in one hand and a bible in the other. Am I wrong??? Pastor Glenn |

73 | Should Christians remain silent on these | Rev 17:5 | Pastor Glenn | 64520 | ||
Pigs Created That Carry Human Genes! Concerning a news article at: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,66345,00.html "WASHINGTON — By manipulating swine sperm, Italian researchers have made a strain of pigs that carry human genes in their hearts, livers and kidneys, an advance that could lead to creating herds of pigs that could provide organs for transplanting into humans." Is this an abomination or what? It seems that no one cares how God feels about his creation design being twisted, sliced, or diced. Should the "ends" (everlasting life) justify ANY "means"? There is a continuing move to live forever without God. Proverbs 14:34 Righteousness exalts a nation, But sin is a reproach to any people. Psalm 24 1 The earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness, The world and those who dwell therein. Should Christians remain silent on these things? Pastor Glenn |

74 | "...these necessary things: ..."??? | Rev 17:5 | Pastor Glenn | 64543 | ||
Robert, Thanks for your comments. My mother has told me of how they had to save my life using a blood transfusion on or about the first day after my birth. But, there is still one scripture that I cannot get past: Acts 15 "23They wrote this, letter by them: The apostles, the elders, and the brethren, To the brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: Greetings. 24Since we have heard that some who went out from us have troubled you with words, unsettling your souls, saying, "You must be circumcised and keep the law"[5] --to whom we gave no such commandment-- 25it seemed good to us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul, 26men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 27We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, who will also report the same things by word of mouth. 28For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things: 29that you abstain from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality.[6] If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell. " Notice: "...no greater burden than these necessary things: 29that you abstain from things offered to idols, from blood, ...". Why is this to be kept in the new testament? I think it is because God is saying in both the old and new testaments, that the life (spirit) is in the blood: Deuteronomy 12:23 Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood is the life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh. John 6:53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. Is this really related to blood transfusions or DNA mixing? I wonder. Pastor Glenn |

75 | Can these Ten Kings be "Al-Qaeda"? | Rev 17:16 | Pastor Glenn | 59486 | ||
Can the "Al-Qaeda" be the Ten Kings? Who else do we know today that makes war with the Lamb(Christians and Israel), while also hating the prostitute(those that are very rich, proud, and selfish)? | ||||||
76 | Isn't every word of God vital to us? | Rev 17:16 | Pastor Glenn | 59536 | ||
Debbie, You said "Speculation will do nothing for the Kingdom - action w/prayer will! " Should we then ignore all other prophecies except for the promise of Jesus' return? Jesus said: Matthew 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. Isn't every word of God vital to our lives? Deuteronomy 8:3 And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live. Matthew 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Was it "speculation" that allowed the wise men to recognize Jesus' star at His birth? Or was it a deep analysis of every word of the Hebrew scriptures(the Old Testament). |

77 | Danger in "revelation theory" only. | Rev 17:16 | Pastor Glenn | 59580 | ||
Debbie, I think you are right about the dangers of having "revelation theory" as the only interest in our Christian study. I also agree that God does not want us to live in fear of the antichrist. However, we do need a healthy fear of the warnings of God as Noah had: Hebrews 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith. As for Al-Qaeda, maybe they are not the ten kings, but there is indication that they may represent a part of the beast himself, while those that provide funding are "as kings" for one hour with the beast(Rev 17:12). 17:13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength(money?) unto the beast. It is important to identify all personallities here: the Ten kings, The Harlot, and the beast. While they are all enemies of the Lamb, the Ten Kings are also enemies of the Harlot that rides the beast. Bless you- Pastor Glenn |
||||||
78 | Does this mean that it is wrong to ask? | Rev 17:16 | Pastor Glenn | 59748 | ||
Brother John, You said:"Speculation in itself is can be a dangerous exercise. It can lead to the sinful practice of reading the scripture in the "light" of man's wisdom." Does this mean that it is wrong to ask the question as to whether Al-Qaeda or others that hate the Lamb (Christianity and Israel) and the Harlot that rides the beast could be part of Rev 17? It is true that God has not revealed everything we would like to know: Revelation 10:4 And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. 1Corinthians 13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. However, we already know that the spirit of antichrist is with everyone that denies that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh: 1John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 2John 1:7 For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. If there is something wrong with comparing todays events to Revelation scripture then why were these prophesies written? Some things were sealed and not written while others were written. Why? "...spin it however they want." Huh? Who really was it that held the Christian Missionaries hostage in Afganistan last year? And who really destroyed the twin towers in New York? Or did these things really happen? Pastor Glenn |

79 | "beheading" in modern times? | Rev 20:4 | Pastor Glenn | 124766 | ||
"...And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God..." Rev 20:4 Just when I was beginning to think that "beheading" was over with in modern times, terrorists begin it again. In general, persecution is not so bad yet in the United States. But times are changing. Any comments? Pastor Glenn |
