63 | Do all share their opinions with us? | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 169309 | ||
Question: Does every forum member at one time or another express his opinion? Answer: On StudyBibleForum some withheld their opinion from us, but they were not really of us; for if they had been of us, they would have given us their opinion; but they withheld their opinion, so that it would be shown that they all are not of us. :-) |

64 | To read an exemplary review (NASB) go to | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 169566 | ||
To read an exemplary review (NASB) go to: To read a most exemplary review of a most excellent Bible (translation and edition), go to Amazon.com. At the top of the page next to Search Books enter the ISBN: "0910618488" (without the quotation marks). When the next page appears on your screen, read the review of the NASB Update Side-Column Reference Bible written by reviewer Henry G. Hallmark (Fort Smith, AR). I highly recommend both this Bible and this review. The edition and translation* is what a Bible should be. The review is what a review should be. *(I-M-Never-To-Be-H-O) :-) Grace to you, Kalos |

Jeff: I am confused. You write: "I checked out the page and didn't find any reference to Keith More." Yet when I went to he webpage pointed to by Mark, www.flcbranson.org, I found the following, exactly as it is worded here: "Listen to a quarterly Partner Message by Brother Keith Moore. CLICK HERE for more information." So I don't understand what you mean when you say you didn't find any reference to Keith Moore. Grace to you, Kalos |

66 | Judas is called the son of perdition | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 170329 | ||
BradK: Thanks for posting the comment by Pink about Judas. I find it very interesting. From ID# 27777, originally posted December 21, 2001: 'In this verse Judas is called the son of perdition. "While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled." John 17:12. 'In this verse the antichrist is called the son of perdition. "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;" 2 Thess 2:3.' By the way, last night on the History Channel, there was a 2-hour special entitled "The Antichrist". Very informative! Did you see it? Grace to you, Kalos |

67 | Judas is called the son of perdition | Bible general Archive 3 | kalos | 170330 | ||
I tend to agree with Pink. I'm not dogmatic about it, but I tend to agree that it is not unlikely that Judas is the antichrist. Where does the Bible actually SAY the antichrist is the devil incarnate? Is it not possible that Judas could be the antichrist - WITHOUT being the devil incarnate? Moreover, I think it more likely that Judas will be the antichrist rather than Prince Charles, Henry Kissinger, or Marilyn Manson, to cite a few of the more ridiculous speculations about the identity of the antichrist. I don't know who the antichrist is and I don't care to know. (If one wants to play Pin the Tail on the Antichrist, Hal Lindsey is one's man.) Yet I think the idea that it will be Judas is worthy of consideration. Grace to you, Kalos |

Psalm139:13: 'Check with your local Christian bookstore’s “Bible person” ask his opinion as his knowledge will be more diverse and better able to assist you...' In a perfect world this would be true everywhere. In my experience in the real world the reverse is usually true. :-) In the real world I consider myself blessed if the bookstore clerk can find a particular Bible and tell me how much it costs. In this instance, you have given good advice regarding a specific topic of which I am in total ignorance -- using USB Ports. May I add that another very good source of product information is amazon.com? Anyone who knows the name of a particular product can go to amazon.com and read customer reviews of that product. I may not agree with every review, but it is often helpful to consider why a customer recommends or does not recommend a certain product. You will often find more detailed information about a product in the customers' reviews than you will in the manufacturer's description. Again, my thanks to you for providing information on a subject about which I know nothing -- using USB Ports. Grace to you, Kalos |

Non-denominational churces are no more infallible than denominational churches. Going to a non-denominational church is no guarantee that all or any of what you hear will be sound doctrine. This non-denominational church teaches one thing and that one may teach something different. | ||||||

Psalm139:13: Once again you have provided us with much good, helpful information, which I greatly appreciate. I envy you living near so many good churches and Christian bookstores. I live approximately halfway between St. Louis, Missouri and Springfield, Illinois. These two cities have fine Bible bookstores, but there are none located between the two cities. The stores where I regularly browse and purchase Bibles and books are Christianbook.com and Amazon.com. Not to boast (2 Cor. 11:17), but when I said in my previous post that most of the time "the reverse is true" I meant it literally. I could and have answered the clerks' questions about various translations and editions of the Bible. Nineteen times out of 20 I am older than the store clerks and have read more translations, studied more years, and owned more Bible editions, versions, and reference books than the clerks. Also not to boast, but when I worked at Waldenbooks in the 1970s I was asked by the manager for my recommendations for the Bible section of this new store. The first modern (post-1611 A.D.) version I bought and used regularly was the New American Standard Bible. I went to the bookstore one day in search of a copy of the American Standard Version (1901) only to learn that it was difficult to obtain one. Based on my familiarity with and the reputation of the ASV, I bought the NASB. It was in the single-column format, with side column references, including the translators' notes, cross references, and literal and alternate renderings of words and phrases. I was not dissapointed by the NASB. I was 26 years old when I bought my first one. I have continued to use the NASB (in many editions) for the past 35 years. In my personal library I have approximately 27 different Bible versions, various study Bibles, and a basic collection of Bible reference books, e.g. Vine's, Strong's, Baker's Theological Dictionary, Nelson's Illustrated Bible Dictionary, and others. I plan to purchase an interlinear Greek-English NT this summer. As for my pastor, I respect his teaching and judgment. He is well trained in the doctrines of his denomination. But I have been reading the Bible since before he was born and studying it since he was 6 years old. Having said all that, I do appreciate your recommendations and those of others here on the forum. I have often found them to be helpful. Grace to you, Kalos |

Psalm 139: Thanks for sharing about the man at the Christian bookstore that helped you to be grounded in the Word. I grew up in the 1950s in a town with a population of 100,000 and, as far as I know, there was only one Christian bookstore in the whole town back then. I never even saw a study Bible (or knew they existed) and was never inside a Bible bookstore (or knew they existed) until I was 13 years old. It was in the front room of someone's house. It was to be another 12 years before I owned my first study Bible, the one that had made such an impression on me when I was 13 -- the Scofield Reference Bible. Now my most-often-used (daily since 1997) study Bible is the one by John MacArthur. Grace to you, Kalos |

Annihilationism "Other distinctive SDA [Seventh Day Adventist] teachings include . . . the doctrine of “soul sleep,” a misnomer for the belief that between death and resurrection one is essentially non-existent except in the memory of God; the annihilation of the wicked (as opposed to conscious torment for eternity). "The soul-sleep doctrine conflicts with the gospel because, closely examined and fully understood, it actually constitutes a denial of the resurrection (though it is doubtful any SDA understands it to be so). Notwithstanding a smattering of “proof-texts,” the annihilation doctrine is definitely aberrant from the teaching of the Bible. It leaves the sinner facing no eternal consequences for his sin; angst over annihilation will not survive annihilation. Indeed, many people today think annihilation preferable to even this life. They live on only because they cannot shake the conviction that there is “hell to pay.” God has set eternity in their hearts (Eccl. 3:11)" ____________________ Source: www.watchman.org/profile/sdapro.htm |

Annihilation and resurrection? "The Bible teaches us that we have an existence away from our bodies once we die. The Jehovah's Witnesses are incorrect. We continue on after death." - - - - - - - - - - - - - 'Does Annihilation and resurrection make sense? 'According to the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, when you die, you cease to exist: Let God be True, p. 59, 60, 67. On Judgment Day, only faithful Jehovah's Witnesses will be resurrected to life eternal on Paradise Earth. The rest of all mankind will be annihilated, wiped out, made to not exist with no eternal punishment in a fiery hell. 'There is a logical problem with this view. If a Jehovah's Witnesses believes that he ceases to exist when he dies and that he will be resurrected at the Judgment Day, then is he really being resurrected? In other words, if he was alive and then has ceased to exist, he is in the same state he was before he was created. That is, he isn't. He has no existence. He is gone. The only remnant of this person would be in the memory of God (not counting family and friends, etc.). Only God would know if this Jehovah's Witness was good enough for Paradise Earth. If he was, then the reward would be a new creation of someone in the exact image of the Jehovah's Witness who previously lived and did all the works mandated by the Watchtower Organization. But, it wouldn't be the exact same person, because that person ceased to exist and there is no continuity, no continuance of the person since he has ceased to be. 'Therefore, on Judgment day, how can he be resurrected? That is, how is he, as the same person, resurrected when he doesn't exist anymore? Is he the exact same person or has God make an exact copy of the person upon which to shower the blessings of Paradise Earth? 'It would seem that simple logic would contradict the idea of existence, non-existence, and then existence all being the same person. It also contradicts scripture which says, '"We are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord," (2 Cor. 5:8). I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago—whether in the body I do not know, or out of the body I do not know, God knows—such a man was caught up to the third heaven," (2 Cor. 12:2). 'The Bible teaches us that we have an existence away from our bodies once we die. The Jehovah's Witnesses are incorrect. We continue on after death." (www.carm.org/jw/annihilation.htm) |

Tim: On the one hand, it's like I heard on Christian radio (David Jeremiah): "If you are the only one who believes something in the Bible, then you don't want to go around talking about it." I.e., if you are the only one who believes a certain thing -- a certain interpretaion. ____________________ "Just because I studied the Word and arrived at a conclusion does not mean that it is correct." ____________________ 'Do my conclusions agree or disagree with related areas of scripture and others who have studied the passage? (From the article "Biblical Interpretation" at Christian Apologetcis and Research Ministry) '...I’ve already presented other verses which seem to agree with my conclusion. However, it is not in agreement with all of the commentaries I’ve read on this verse. At this point I would need to present my conclusion to others to see what they think. Just because I studied the Word and arrived at a conclusion does not mean that it is correct. But it doesn’t mean it is wrong either. 'By consulting with others, by examining the word again, and by seeking God and his illumination, I can only hope to arrive at the best possible conclusion about a passage...' (To read more, see "Biblical Interpretation" at: www.carm.org/bible/interpret.htm) 1 John 2:27 '"You have no need for anyone to teach you." Both "you's" are plural and refer to the believing community as a whole; there is no ground here for a hyper-individualistic understanding of the Gospel wherein the views of other believers and the gathering of believers together are considered unimportant' (Jewish New Testament Commentary, David H. Stern, Jewish New Testament Publications, Inc., 1992). On the other hand, going to SCRIPTURE FIRST and the commentators only second is a principle with which I agree 100 percent.

Mark: I have heard two old sayings about commentaries. I think there is truth in both of them. They are: The best commentary is a good translation. The Bible is its own best commentary. "The best commentary is a good translation." Many times when I have looked up a difficult verse in another translation, especially the Amplified and the NLT, I found my question answered and understood the verse well enough to continue reading. "The Bible is its own best commentary." John MacArthur writes: "One of the basic principles of biblical interpretation is the analogia scriptura, the analogy of Scripture. In other words, we must compare Scripture with Scripture in order to understand its full and proper sense. And since the Bible doesn't contradict itself, any interpretation of a specific passage that contradicts the general teaching of the Bible is to be rejected." Grace to you, Kalos |
