owassoconnie, Good day to you. To find the setting go to John 13:1 This is one of several "farewell speaches" as Jesus knew His hour had come and Judas was about to betray Him leading to His arrest. Go ahead and start at John 13:1; follow the story and context and if you have further questions please let us know. "Jesus knowing His hour had come....." InGodITrust |

63 | Why do they kill Stephen but said unlawf | Acts | InGodITrust | 187942 | ||
Yowege, The trial of Jesus took place during a Sabbath, the stoning of Stephen was (most likely) not during a Sabbath. That may be only part of the scenerio but it's what comes to mind.This was in accord with Lev. 24:14. However, they were required to get the Romans approval (it's doubtful they did) and may have given him "a mock trial." God's speed. InGodITrust |

65 | judas's field of blood. ref. to acts | Acts 1:18 | InGodITrust | 189236 | ||
justsomebody, Here's what I found; Field of Blood Hakeldama, the Field of Blood where Judas hung himself. Called at present "Hak ed-damm," it signifies "Field of Blood" (Matt 27:8; Acts 1:18-19), now at the E end and on the southern slope of the valley of Hinnom. The tradition that fixes this spot reaches back to the age of Jerome. Once the tradition was that the soil of this spot, a deep pit or cellar, was believed to have the power of consuming dead bodies in the space of twenty-four hours, so that whole shiploads of it are said to have been carried away in A.D. 1218 AD, in order to cover the famous Campo Santo in Pisa. Acts 1:18-19 "Now this man purchased a field with the wages of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his entrails gushed out. And it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem; so that field is called in their own language, Akel Dama, that is, Field of Blood."

66 | why was light created on the first day a | Rom 5:21 | InGodITrust | 189333 | ||
kujur, Excellent question and one that many have asked. You are both right and wrong. God bless you though for looking at Scripture "literally." Both Adam and Eve did die that day. They died spiritually and not physically. Hope this answers your question, keep up the pursuit.... InGodITrust |

67 | Greek Question in Romans | Rom 7:25 | InGodITrust | 189899 | ||
rzaac, I too am in Colorado, Fremont County to be exact. Welcome to the forum. I have not found a suitable web site to aid one with the Greek, although I have not looked that hard. Let me give you what help I can. Apa, Strongs 686 is an inferential particle. inference. 1. conclusion, a conclusion drawn from evidence or reasoning 2. logic reasoning process, the process of reasoning from a premise to a conclusion 3. implication, something that is implied Apa means, "Then or therefore, and indicating an interrogative." interrogative, adj. 1. questioning, questioning or seeming to question somebody or something 2. grammar used to ask a question, consisting of or used in asking a question "Ouv" Strong's 3767 is a conjuction. conjunction (plural conjunctions) 1. combining of several things, the joining together or combining of two or more things 2. simultaneous occurrence, a simultaneous occurrence of events or circumstances 3. grammar connecting word, a word that is used to link sentences, clauses, phrases, or words, for example, “and,” “but,” or “if." So, not sure exactly how to answer your question? To find another example where "apa ouv" is used would require that you deposit 50.00 "finders fee!" Just kidding, but it would entale a lot of time. The last question is that "Paul did not answer his question in verse 24. Verse 25 is the answer to his question,i.e. "Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from the body of this death?" The answer, verse 25: Thanks be to God (the answer) through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then,(apa ouv;I have concluded that this is indeed the answer)"On the one hand I myself with my mind am serving the law of God, but on the other, with my flesh the law of sin." This is the contrast between our new man in Christ and the old man of the flesh. God has left us with this constant struggle between the flesh and the spirit. Why? I have asked myself this a thousand times. The answer; so that we too will share the reward and (partial) glory with Christ Jesus who Himself came to earth to deliver (eventually in our new body)us from the power of sin. Hope this helps, let us know. InGodITrust |

Ohop, Your in luck, or should I say "God's grace." It took me a few moments to find it but I thought all along it was the apostle Paul and it was. He loved his people the Jews so much that he wished himself accursed for their sake in that they were refusing to acknowledge Jesus Christ as their Messiah. Glad I could help, God Bless......

70 | do you think tarot cards are a sin? | 1 Cor 10:23 | InGodITrust | 189161 | ||
leapordgirl13, Greetings in the name of the Messiah, The Bible gives us a lot of latitude, enough to hang ourself.(not literally) Would you play with fire and hope not to get burned? If a person is not born again, they could be exposing themselves to demonic influence and possibly possession. Tarot cards are Satanic in nature and contrary to what a Christian would want to expose themselves to. In God's grace, blessings to you, InGodITrust |

Try God 1st, Well I don't know about you, but I hope to leave earthly works here! All kidding aside "it's not what you do in life, it is why and how you do it." If what you and I do is not done in-love and for the right motive and the right reason "all is vain and striving after the wind." Study 1 Corinthins 13, all of it. Then go to Philippians 2, then Matthew 6:33 "seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousnes.." Matthew 22:36-40 making sure you love your neighbor with all the same fervor and commitment that you claim to have for loving God with all your heart,soul, and mind. That oughta get ya started, right? InGodITrust |

73 | Help for Christian Wife of Alchoholic | 1 Cor 16:14 | InGodITrust | 189733 | ||
Dear eileen8, God richly bless you, I can only imagine what you are going through. My first response is "love knows no bounds, has no limits, for Christ's sake forgives and forgives. However, I do not know all you are going through. There may be a Christian web site but it has been my experience that so much advise is not Biblical. I know this sounds self serving but please see my personal profile. I have just published a book on Agape-Love which will answer many of your questions. Tough love must at all times be Biblically tough love. If it is unbearable and you feel God is absolutely telling you so then a conditional seperation could be the answer. Never lock the door nor turn out the light. If you must give him an ultimatum then make sure he understands "the decision is up to him." He can come back or you will return "it's up to him." Always leave the door open and the light on. Hope this helps. God grant you the wisdom and strength to see it through. Remember love, Biblical love, always hopes the best, seeks the best, and anxiously looks for a restoration, no matter what. InGodITrust |

74 | Reading: John 3:21 | 2 Cor 6:14 | InGodITrust | 189284 | ||
Kalama, Very good question. One that every single Christian should consider foremost. My thoughts; Dating would be any event that you and another would set aside to do together. Christian dating, of course that implies that you would date "only a believer." Dating is simply a modern term. Courtship is probibly a more traditional term. Dating in the world's eyes is "out to have a good time" no matter with who or what for. If a Christian is "to date" I suggest it should be in every way, "as if Christ Himself were your chaperone." Glad to be of assistance, InGodITrust |

75 | saved and sanctified | Ephesians | InGodITrust | 189272 | ||
Azure, Good morning young lady, Very good question and one that is confusing as well as "there is too much being mingled in with the Biblical concept." Sanctification is our given position in Christ. He, not us, is the one who sanctifies us because of Him being our Lord and Savior. Take a look at this post from Wikipedia; Sanctification From Wikipedia, Part of a series of articles on Christianity Christian theology: Sanctification or in its verb form, sanctify, literally means to set apart for special use or purpose, that is to make holy or sacred (from the Latin verb sanctificare, which in turn derives from sanctus, "holy" and facere, "to make".). The Greek word is hagiasmos (Üãéáóìïò), meaning "holiness, consecration, or sanctification." [1] It comes from the root hagios (Üãéïò), which means holy or sacred. Sanctification then refers to the state or process of being set apart or made holy. What is often missed, or overlooked, is the relational aspect that is associated with the word sancification. Only God is truly holy. Everything else, whether it is things or people, is holy only because of its relationship to God God bless, InGodITrust |

76 | saved and sanctified | Ephesians | InGodITrust | 189275 | ||
Azure, I missed this as it did not copy, So...........here's a little more, The concept of sanctification is widespread among religions, but is perhaps more common among the various branches of the Christian religion, especially those of the Protestant-Reformed and Wesleyan-Arminian traditions. The term can be used to refer to objects which are set apart for special purposes (i.e., the Temple vessels), but the most common use within Christian theology is in reference to the change brought about by God in a believer, begun at the point of salvation or justification and continuing throughout the life of the believer. Many forms of Christianity believe that this process will only be completed in Heaven, but some believe that complete holiness is possible in this life on earth--particularly in the final days before the ultimate return of Jesus. Some Protestants denominations call the completion of sanctification "glorification". In some branches of Christianity, inanimate objects as well as people are referred to as "sanctified" or "holy". A notable instance is the process of transubstantiation, which in Roman Catholic doctrine means that the bread and wine of Communion are physically transformed into the flesh and blood (respectively) of Jesus. This act constitutes a kind of sanctification of the bread and wine. Blessings to you, InGodITrust |

77 | More on submissiveness | Eph 5:22 | InGodITrust | 189749 | ||
eileen8, As much as is possible, submission in the New Testament refers to those "equally yoked." To try to answer your question would be too vague and would not address the problem you mentioned earlier. Submission to a non believing spouse (I assume since you said he is alcoholic) would entale all scriptures except where he would ask or expect you to violate Biblical principals. Those of course would be too involved to answer here. If you can please be more specific. On the Forum we do not generally give personal advise as this is highly unwise without knowing all the facts. Then again you would get such a wide range of answers you'd be more confused than ever. Kind of like my many answers to tonights questions............!!! God's grace to you eileen8 InGodITrust |

78 | "The Great Commission" ? | Col 1:23 | InGodITrust | 192801 | ||
Derowr, I beg your pardon, the Great Commission has not been fulfilled. I don't know what version of the Bible you are using nor do I know your 'frame of reference.' The NASB does not say nor indicate "was." The rendering is "the Gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven,..." The KJV renders it preached 'to' every creature. The Greek for to is the preposition 'ev' which means "in" that means "within definate space or limits." The Great Commission will not be fulfilled until the return of Christ to rule and reign. So, my friend, please clearify exactly what you mean and are trying to say. InGodITrust |

79 | How many ressurections are there? | 2 Thess 2:3 | InGodITrust | 188017 | ||
M.Royal, If you count all three, as I do, the first resurrection is the gathering up (rapture) of living believers and the those in the grave that were believers, is the first. The second would be those who came to Christ during the "great tribulation," being resurrected to the thousand year period. The final and third will be all the unsaved-lost dead for the final resurrection. And for all the final judgment, believers unto the bema seat or Christ's judgment, the lost unto "the great white throne judgment." At this time the lost and Satan will be cast into the lake of fire forever. It's been many years since I studied this out but that is "a basic explanation." I think that answers Rev.20:4,6 Verse 5, "this is the first resurrection," refers back to verse 4, those who died for Christ during the great tribulation. Giving you a blessing, InGodITrust |

80 | What stands in the Holy place, today? | 2 Thess 2:4 | InGodITrust | 189757 | ||
dhill1, The holy place refers to the "rebuilt Temple" in Jerusalem yet to be constructed. This will happen just before or during the tribulation period. The plans to rebuild are well under way by Israel, as I understand it, awaiting God's time table. Question answered? InGodITrust |
