61 | which bible verse talks about prophecy? | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 160768 | ||
Dear Christian - That's a large order! In the NASB, there are 19 verses that contain the word "prophecy"; 89 that contain "prophesy" or "prophesying," and a whopping 450 verses that contain "prophet." ..... Perhaps you may wish to narrow your question down a bit. Or if you like you can go to "Get Bible Text" at the right of this screen and type in the respective key words, one key word for each search. --Hank | ||||||

64 | muslim in Bible? | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 163067 | ||
There were no Muslims in Bible times, i.e., the times when the Bible was written. Mohammed, founder of Islam, was born in Mecca in 570 A.D. Please, let's confine our questions to biblical topics; the study of Islam is not one of these. --Hank | ||||||
65 | A Thought-provoking question | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 164164 | ||
My dear rashiner, when one reads loaded and assumptive questions such as this one you've posed -- questions that attempt to use Scripture to promulgate a faulty premise -- he is given to wonder whether the questioner is using Scripture as a drunken man uses lamp posts -- for support rather than illumination. --Hank | ||||||
66 | is the typeology correct? | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 165441 | ||
Happy New Year, Chusarcik! Dr. C. I. Scofield, who was certainly big on the theory or doctrine of biblical typology, issued two warnings on the subject: "(1) nothing may be insisted upon as a type without explicit New Testament authority; and (2) all types not so authenticated must be recognized as having only the authority of analogy, of spiritual congruity." Concerning types he further observes, "Types occur most frequently in the Pentateuch, but are found, more sparingly, elsewhere. The antitype, or fulfillment of the type, is found generally in the New Testament." This is an excerpt from Scofield's annotation on Genesis 2:23 that appears in the New Scofield Reference Bible (KJV), 1967 Edition, (Oxford University Press). Perhaps Dr. Scofield's guidelines will prove helpful to you. --Hank | ||||||
67 | Confronting another about sin | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 165473 | ||
You and your married woman friend must be very young: Mature people don't usually speak of developing "crushes" -- that's a word we used as high-school teenagers. Young man, you're messing around with fire with this wife of another man -- and a mother yet! Wake up, get counsel if you require it and encourage the woman to get counsel too -- both of you could very likely use some mature guidance -- but at all events break off this relationship with this married woman and mother totally, cleanly, permanently, and quickly before you both get severely burned! Don't dally around. Do it now, today! --Hank | ||||||

chell: Rivet your attention to the program and counseling sessions in which your pastor is guiding you. You are most unlikely to find specific answers to your problem on this Forum or any other web site, so don't waste your time and energy flitting around the internet for solutions! Stick with what your pastor has made available and give it your all. And don't forget to pray. Take your burdens to the Lord in prayer. And do not forsake a regular, daily encounter with the Scriptures. Feed upon God's word every day of your life. --Hank | ||||||
71 | Why so many Bibles? | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 166719 | ||
Md1234: Bless your heart! I feel your pain! -") A septuagenarian myself, I find myself lapsing into luxurious revelry from time to time, longing for the good old days that shall be no more -- the simple days of yore when everyone drove either a Ford or Chevrolet in any color he wanted as long as it was black, when a box of cereal meant a box of corn flakes or shredded wheat, when we had a choice of one or possibly two radio stations to listen to, when everybody lived in white frame houses with big front porches, and when almost everybody went to church on Sunday mornings wearing starched collars and carrying their black King James Bibles. Except nobody called it the King James Version back then. It wasn't a version of the Bible. It was THE Bible. Period. You could buy it about everywhere. Even Sears and Roebuck sold it in their catalog. But you never ordered the King James Version OF the Bible. You just ordered the Bible. And the King James is what you always got. ...... Now times have changed and are a changing still. But I am happy to report to you, with hopes that it will assuage your fears, that nothing has happened to Jesus Christ. He is still the same: yesterday, today, and forever. And I am happy also to report to you that certain of His followers, that dedicated cadre of godly men and women who devote their lives and talents to the study of the ancient tongues and customs-- with a scholarly eye ever focused on the enormously difficult and exacting task of translating God's word into good and understandable modern languages -- have been able to accomplish their mission of translating without adding to or taking from the word of God. One would be hard pressed to find any group of translators more honorable, more of conviction, and more dedicated to the task of rendering God's word into an English translation more transparent of the ancient manuscripts than the hard-working teams who translated the original NASB and its 1995 Update -- and this would include the group who gave us the King James Bible in 1611. ..... Yes, admittedly, the plethora of new versions can be bewildering at times. But the advantages of having several excellent modern translations at our beck and call cannot be ignored and, for my money, outweigh the mild "tower of Babel" syndrome some seem to experience when exposed to different translations. ..... It might be observed in postscript that it took some 50 years for the venerable King James Bible to gain general acceptance among its readers. Its translators too were accused of shaking things up and changing things around so much! ..... I'm 70 years old, as I've stated, but I make every effort to keep my mind active and alive and to stave off becoming fossilized for as long as possible. One way to do this is to recognize that all living languages change, and that any work, religious or secular, that was set down in the English language of Elizabethan times, is outdated and in need of updating. But in reading the Elizabethan English of Shakespeare's dramas and sonnets, it is not nearly as crucial to understand his every word as it is to understand God's word. The language of the King James may be beautiful (it is), its sounds musical and its cadence poetic, but if it fails to communicate meaning to the modern reader, it fails to serve him well. ..... Who among modern readers is likely to understand this question: "How long will ye love vanity and seek after leasing?" (Psalm 4:2b, KJV). Who would not find it much more understandable to read: "How long will you love what is worthless and aim at deception?" (Psalm 4:2b, NASB). The fresh new translation of 1611 is the archaic one today. And should the world stand another 400 years, the New American Standard Bible will be the crusty old version that few read and even fewer understand. Life goes on. --Hank | ||||||
72 | ch. 1 verses 3-14 | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 166928 | ||
fstewart: Your question reads, "need some one to help me with chapter 1 verses 3-14." .... Would it be all right to offer you just any kind of help on any book of Scripture that has as many as 14 verses in its first chapter, or do you have a preference as to the kind of help you'd like to receive and the book on which you'd like to receive it? --Hank | ||||||
73 | Are these essentials for Salvation? | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 167054 | ||
justme: While I have not been exposed to the article by Dr. Norman Geisler from which you have lifted a fragment without benefit of full context, I am familiar with a great deal of Dr. Geisler's work and hence do not believe that he is speaking adversely of such orthodox Christian beliefs as Christ's virgin birth, His bodily ascension and His Second Advent. The key point of Dr. Geisler's article appears to be that it is not necessary to be an accomplished theologian in order to be saved. There is good evidence that Paul and Silas thought much the same way. When, in Acts 16:30, the Philippian jailer put to them the question, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" neither Paul nor Silas presented him with a long list of doctrines that he must espouse, or a lengthly creed he must memorize, or a confession of faith he must recite every Lord's Day. Neither did they tell him to enroll in a theological seminary and get a doctorate degree! [If there is any reader of this post who doesn't know what the jailer was told to do in order to be saved, please turn in your Bible to Acts 16:31.] --Hank | ||||||

75 | Books of the Bible outline | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 167252 | ||
jmhoward: If we may assume by your incomplete question that you are looking for outlines of the books of the Bible, here's a tip. Many reference Bibles and almost all study Bibles provide outlines along with introductions at the beginning of each book of Scripture or in an appendix at the back of the Bible text. Three excellent choices: Ryrie, Scofield, and Thompson Chain. --Hank | ||||||
76 | I don't know what version this quote is | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 167641 | ||
tbrice: Pullest thou the Forum's leg? Even the Cotton Patch Version is better than whatever you quoted as some unidentified version of Scripture. Where on earth did you come in contact with this quote? It isn't from any version of Scripture that I ever heard of. It is virtually certain that it is not Scripture from any version. Even the worst versions make some sense. Your quote makes none at all. --Hank | ||||||

78 | When the first bible has written? | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 168868 | ||
Shinny: Not sure of your question. The first PRINTED Bible was the famous Gutenberg Bible printed in mid 15th century A.D., using a Latin text. If you are asking when the original manuscripts (called autographs) of the individual books comprising the canons of the Old and New Testaments were written, those dates vary widely; the precise time of writing of many of the books, especially the OT books, has never been determined. The NT books were written at various times within the first century A.D. --Hank | ||||||
79 | how many bible we have? | Bible general Archive 3 | Hank | 168870 | ||
shinny: This question, not unlike your other question, appears vague. To your question, "How many bible we have?" it could be answered that we have only one Bible, composed of the the 39 books of the OT Canon and 27 of the NT Canon, to a total of 66 books in all. I am, of course, referring to the Bible common to most Protestants. There are numerous translations, old and new, in English and in many other languages. --Hank | ||||||

Chrissy: About all any member of this Forum can do for you and your cousin is to pray for you. Your brief sketch of your younger cousin's plight indicates that she should be a candidate for counselling by qualified Christian professionals. God's word is His message to humankind and can be properly understood in full context, but I don't believe that lifting an isolated verse here and there out of context is the proper way to approach Scripture or to ascertain the will of God. Encourage your young cousin to be realistic and face the situation squarely, to seek solid counsel, and not to engage in wishful thinking or rely on pipe dreams. According to your report, this young woman is being abused and her small children neglected. She needs immediate help on behalf of herself and her children. Urge her with all your power to get it as quickly as possible. --Hank | ||||||
