Greetings, If you are asserting that the Kingdom came on the day of Pentecost there would be a glitch in your thesis especially since you used Matt.16:28 Is this what Matt. 16:28 says? Matthew 16:28 28 Verily I say unto you, “all of you standing here”, shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom. i.e. they were all there for Pentecost, right? The answer is yes but that isn’t what Matt16:28 says now is it? Matthew 16:28 (KJV) 28 Verily I say unto you, There be “some” standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom. The word "some" is translated from the Koine Greek and it is the enclitic indefinite pronoun “TIS”. If it would have meant all, as you suggest, The adjective “PAS” would have been used. The Kingdom that was being referred to is when Christ returns in full visible Glory, Peter, James and John were given a ring side seat for the later coming attraction in Matt. 17;1-3 Matthew 17:1-3 (KJV) 1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, 2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. 3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. When this finally takes place and the Kingdom comes God’s perfect will, will be done on Earth as it is in heavenand the enemies of Christ will be made His foot stool! Jesus won’t be seated at the right hand of the Father at this time. He will be on the move as displayed in Rev. 1:7. Revelation 1:7 (KJV) 7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. I must say you certainly formulated a plausible concept though that took a lot of effort and thinking. CDBJ |

You have evidently pointed an answer to me which I didn’t ask the question in the first place, i.e. you presented it to the wrong poster. The content of your message seems to be rather obscure seeing that there isn’t any information there to read? CDBJ |

Sorry to have rattled you: what I was trying to do was to present a paronomasia. I realize what Matt. 16:28 says, but for your position to be correct, what it actually said shows that your opinion of the Kingdom coming at Pentecost can’t be possible. All of the apostles with the exception of Judas were in the upper room on the day of Pentecost “not just some”, which is what was said by Christ when He pronounced the seeing of the Kingdom coming. I won’t trouble you any further and again I’m sorry for upsetting you, my mistake, CDBJ |

Greetings EdB, I did an extensive study on that very subject several years ago and came up with the same exact conclusion, i.e. you hit the nail right on the head. Everybody that tries to figure this out assumes that the Sabbath is Saturday and that’s where they get all mixed up when counting back. I was told that the process as was discussed in the earlier posts is a carryover from Romanism and the Sabbath had to be Saturday: NOT! There is a great book out on “The Jewish Feast” that was written by a Marvin Rosenthal; the art work in it is fantastic and it was through this book that it was made clear to me. I used the book as a teaching aid in a Sunday morning class that lasted close to two months. Have a great day and I like your post, CDBJ |

67 | Aren't Isaelites and Jews, one people? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236468 | ||
Hi Doc, Am I right in my thinking that the word Jew could be referred to as a race, a nationality and a religion? I was taught that but it’s been so many years ago that I can’t remember if I still have it right or not. The race started with Abraham, the Nation started with Moses when they left Egypt, then the religion began at Mt. Sinai when Moses received the 10 Commandments and delivered them to the chosen people of God, would that be correct? CDBJ |

68 | Can you continue to sin an go to heaven? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236531 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the Bible Forum. I enjoyed your personal profile but there is one part that puzzled me. You stated, (any person who wants to become a child of God must be BLAMELESS and HARMLESS -- FIRST -- and THEN -- he can be a child of God.) That’s almost like a sick person becoming healthy before they go to the doctor, that's how I see it from my perspective. How exactly does that line up with what the Apostle Paul recommended and Jesus as well in John 1:12? Galatians 3:26 (NASB) 26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. John 1:12 (NASB) 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name, (believing and receiving are synonymous) My believing in Jesus Christ for my so great salvation came about in just the opposite way as yours. I believed and thoroughly trusted in Jesus and what He did for me on the cross for my salvation and then the Holy Spirit cleaned up my life. He gets all the credit I was nothing but a lost sinner and I didn’t deserve anything but to be separated from God for the rest of eternity. The fact is as long as I’m still in this old body of sin, I’m still a sinner but one that has been saved by grace through faith! Titus 3:5 (NASB) 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, I sure hope you enjoy the forum and again welcome aboard, CDBJ |

69 | Can you continue to sin an go to heaven? | Bible general Archive 4 | CDBJ | 236540 | ||
Greetings again, My final comment for the morning in conclusion to your previous statement. “But there is not one word in the scriptures that tells me that Jesus is going to maintain it for me. That is my responsibility.“ Good luck with that responsibility, and I did say luck, since it you doing the work I’d rather rely on what God has promised. 2 Timothy 1:12 (KJV) (B) for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day. 1 Peter 1:4-5 (KJV) 4 To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. (Who are kept by the power of God) This carries more punch in the Koine Greek! It says: The ones by the power of God being Guarded, as in the following with emphasis on “phrouroumenous” which is a verb participle, present tense that is continues action at the present time, passive voice, the believers receive the action of the verb, accusative case, i.e. God causes the action to occur, masculine gender, second person, plural,i.e. all you believers are included. Taus en dunamei theou phrouroumenous. God’s word has a lot to say about keeping care of his own, the battle is the Lord’s and greater is He that is in you then he who is in the world. And with that I will say good night! Psalm 4:8 (KJV) 8 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety. CDBJ P.S. You would be doing yourself and the forum a big favor by not just giving a plethora of address for a verse of Scripture but writting it out because the past forty 47 years as a believer has taught me that no one will take the time to look them up and read them: if they are written they will be read! |

70 | Did Adam / Eve know the meaning of evil | Bible general Archive 3 | CDBJ | 157519 | ||
Hi Doc, The fact that our first parents sinned and what they knew, as a result, shows something in a verse that I am not all that sure about. Genesis 3:22 (NASB) Then the Lord God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; and now, lest he stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever"— The words, like one of Us; would that be the same as saying as God, being one in essence, knowing the difference between good and evil? I don’t see how it could possible mean one, as only one of the members of the trinity, because the same exact nature of God is present in all three members, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and all three are equal in knowledge. Just out of curiosity, which one of the members of the trinity do "you" suppose said that? Incidentally, this is by no means a trick question by any stretch of the imagination, I have just never thought about it, CDBJ |

71 | Did Adam / Eve know the meaning of evil | Bible general Archive 3 | CDBJ | 157528 | ||
Thanks Doc for the response, I think I would lean more toward Robert Jamieson, A. R. Fausset and David Brown then Gill. I’m not sure if there is any truth in this saying but I remember someone stating, “The longer and more words that it takes for one to explain themselves is usually a sign that they know less about the subject.” I don’t even know if I have that worded exactly right and yet you probably even know who said it, plus the exact wording. A prime example, Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. I enjoy your post, CDBJ |

Hi AIT, No problem with the delays, it seems like my whole life is one big delay! It's so nice to hear from you and I hope everything is going well. I remember my first few years as a born again believer just as though it were yesterday but in reality it’s been close to 40 years now. I think I knew more then, then I know now; just kidding. Have you come to the place yet, in your walk with the Lord, where you can say for certain that you have eternal life; is it a sure thing with you yet? Here is one for you: lets say you were to standing before God this very day, awesome idea, and He were to say to you, why should I let you come into my kingdom, what do you think you would say to Him; just hypothetically speaking? I don’t know if you have every had this thought before but I have. What do you think you would say in a situation like that; it will be interesting to hear your thoughts on this. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Hi AIT, I like your example of the grave stone. I told my wife that when I die, she doesn’t even have to bother putting me in the ground, just through me in the back yard, and I will raise enough stink that somebody will bury me. She didn’t think it was funny either! There is an interesting point on your post that I noticed. You mentioned the following and it sure seems like the thing we would all want God to say about us “"With her, I am well pleased." Why would God want to say that about you personally speaking? I have kind of had thoughts along those same lines. I wanted to be the best person I could be and trust God and have Him look favorably on me. Then one day someone showed me the following, in the Bible that I would like to share with you; boy, did this open my eyes! The one that showed me this said that this is how God looks at me, and everyone else. Romans 3:10 As it is written: "There is none righteous, no, not one; Romans 3:12 They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one." I told him well I believe in God and I’m doing the best I can do and he continued to show me these verses. Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, The question is then how can I be pleasing in God’s sight since I am imperfect? The answer is that I have to get God’s eyes of me and on to something perfect instead of me; i.e. something in my place. Now how do I do that? God says that He will place me in Jesus Christ His Son positionally, if I will completely trust in the work that God did for me on the cross in the person of His Son Jesus. In essence Jesus gets old filthy me and God ascribes to me His perfect righteousness: what a deal!! But I have to have confidence or total undivided faith in Gods Son Jesus, in order for all of this to happen! Paul even mentions this in Romans about his countrymen and I fit the same pattern, how they believe in God and even with zeal but their believing in God wasn’t God’s plan: Jesus is God’s only plan! Romans 10:1-4 Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved. [2] For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. [3] For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God. [4] For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. It’s kind of strange when we speak about believing in God and trusting in Him. God the Father wants us to use Jesus as the way to Him and eternal life. Acts 4:12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. When I started reading the Bible I was close and on the right track all right but it wasn’t until I finally come to the conclusion of the following that I knew God was right about the life hereafter. That if God were to ask me; Why should I let you come into My Kingdom, I would have say, while face down on my knees? Because of my precious Saviour Jesus, He paid my price and opened the way for me and I completely trust in what he did for me on the cross, that what he did was sufficient for me to get into heaven. I could say, Father if you weren’t satisfied with what Jesus did for me you wouldn’t have raised Him from the dead but you did and I trust in Him and believe what you promised me and I have Jesus as my own. 1 John 5:10-13 He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son. [11] And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. [12] He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. [13] These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God. And now AIT, you know the rest of my story, CDBJ |

Hi AIT, I have a house full of relatives, here form Va. and I can’t spend too much time on the computer. That was a nice experience that you had at the grocery store with the elderly lady. Were you able to share the love of God with here and did she respond with any kind of a decision towards Christ? I will post to you later when I have more time. 1 Cor. 9:22 (B) I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. Have a great day, CDBJ |

Hello JimmyHen, I agree with the first part of your “lengthy” post, that we should “all” back up our post with Scripture. You stated in you post, “many things here my friend, you backed nothing up with scripture, for one,” Those are your exact words, yet in the entire lengthy of your post you made no mention of any particular biblical chapter of verse to support your positions, are we to assume then that you are above what you require of others? Or maybe you neglected to list the word “I Corinthians” before your 9:11 1 Cor. 9:11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things? It sounds like a prime case of the pot calling the kettle black, do you agree? 2 Tim. 3:16 (KJV) All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: Psalm 119:160 (NASB) The sum of Thy word is truth, And every one of Thy righteous ordinances is everlasting. 2 Tim. 2:15 (NIV) Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. Have a nice day, CDBJ |

Hello JimmyHen, It seems you have been asking all the questions about antichrist and if certain prospects could fill the bill. Cutting to the chase; Whom, “in your opinion”, was the person of Jesus Christ; and please expatiate if possible? Matthew 16:13-15 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? [14] And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. [15] He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am Recognizing or spotting counterfeit money at a glance is taught to those in our government: i.e. those who have control over our currency and, in essence, are on the inside track. The way it is done is by teaching them the genuine bills to the point that a phony stands out like a sore thumb; the same is true when it comes to antichrist. There are many antichrist and then there is the antichrist; the one that will make a covenant of death with Israel, i.e. the man of sin. Isaiah 28:15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: Matthew 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 2 Thes. 2:3-4 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; [4] Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. I would like your personal viewpoint with regards to just whom the person of Jesus Christ actually is? Do you think you can handle that question with the knowledge that you have acquired, or would you say that you are still in the early training stage? CDBJ |

In considering you post, could you please present the Scripture that backs up you statement? You presumed the following, “He did take into consideration our free will and I believe that is why Christ died for our sins, because God knew Satan would hold us for ransom.” I am being held by a stronger source then Satan! John 10:28-30 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. [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. [30] I and my Father are one. Satan is far worse off then those who have the opportunity to escape eternal condemnation by trusting in the finished work of Christ. Matthew 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: It’s God that must be satisfied when it comes to the price for man’s eternal placement, not the looser Satan! God has already paid the price for man’s redemption and Satan is already judged. 2 Tim. 2:25-26 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; [26] And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. The truth is, Jesus, and what he has already done! People need to acknowledge this fact and turn from what they have been trusting in for eternal life to faith in God’s Son. John 16:7-11 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. [8] And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: [9] Of sin, because they believe not on me; [10] Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; [11] Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. It wasn’t Satan that held us for ransom, we were held by the cures of the law. Galatians 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: It’s a done deal, I have read the end of the book and the saint’s team wins and we have something to sing about. Rev. 5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; Acts 20:28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. Have a nice day, CDBJ |
