62 | Does it make more sense now? | Eccl 12:7 | kw5kw | 155703 | ||
Greetings once again Tim. Does my illustration make more sense to you now, (for I was pretty sure that you hadn't talked to the shuttle)? Not to many people have actually talked to the shuttle, but enough have done so that makes it completely believeable.) Not to many (in the past 2000 years) have talked to Jesus. 1. I HAVE talked to the Space Shuttle 2. I have NOT ridden on the shuttle. 3. You have Not talked to the shuttle. 4. You have Not ridden on the shuttle. I can explain the expierence of talking to the shuttle, and make you understand. We can both Marvle at the ride on the shuttle. Using the same illustration about an encounter with our Lord Jesus. I should be able to make you understand that I have had an experience that you haven't had. I should be able to make you understand that indeed I have had that experience and what that experience was like. Does that make sense now? I think the big problem here is the impersonal internet. You don't know me from Adam (although I do have a belly button.) (JOKE) Therefore you don't know my intentions. I assure you sir, that my intentions are 100 per cent honorable. email me and I'll give you a phone number that you can call and we can talk and get to know each other. Your Brother in Christ, Russ |

No, strictly computed and actually was scheduled into their flight plan that time. It was coordinated via AMSAT and Kieth Pugh, W5IU and Donna (forget her last name) N5WOE so that they students at one of our local elementary schools could gain some experience with both science and amateur radio. We did not get individual QSL cards, but we did get a nice write up in the Star-Telegram for the event. Check AMSAT.org for other such activities. Amateur radio has many satellites used for communications, and the shuttle (used to anyway) was routeinly used to give school students the expierence. And as for tracking, you can track almost any satellite anywhere anytime if you have the programs. I've let this area of my life lapse quite a bit, so I'm a bit rusty on the pages, but amsat.org should have the links necessary. So this expierence is just as real as it can be! Russ |

Greetings Hank, Thanks for the wise words of wisdom, for I have tried to do nothing but seek such wisdom. Hopefully one of these days I will have a meer fraction of that which Soloman had. Tiz why I post seldom, but always when I do I post several in a row, then I'll read until I hit something I just HAVE to respond to. Peace with you Hank I am your brother in Christ Russ Ecc 7:25 I applied mine heart to know, and to search, and to seek out wisdom, and the reason of things, and to know the wickedness of folly, even of foolishness and madness: |

Greetings Tim: Just to let you know, My user id: kw5kw is an amateur radio call sign. Using amateur radio, I have indeed talked to the space shuttle. As a matter of fact, both the shuttle and I were using what we call a hand held unit that only transmits a maximum of 5 watts, but that was all that was necessary since it was line of sight. However, the truth is, I have indeed talked to the space shuttle. Not this last one, it has been several years ago now, but once is enough to make it true. Good tidings to you Tim, Russ |

67 | Was Jesus tempted with fornication | John 21:25 | kw5kw | 155678 | ||
What you are asking for is not there. However the passage that you quoted states that He (Jesus) was indeed tempted in every way. Therefore, you can conclude from the Holy Scriptures that Jesus was indeed tempted in every way, and yes that would include sexual temptations. Heb 4:15 For we have not a high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. (KJV) For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. (NASB) For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin. (NIV) For we do not have a High Priest Who is unable to understand and sympathize and have a shared feeling with our weaknesses and infirmities and liability to the assaults of temptation, but One Who has been tempted in every respect as we are, yet without sinning. (AMP) If you've ever been tempted with anything, you can rest asurred that our LORD Jesus was tempted in the same manner. Except, HE was able to say no to the devil each and every time... Matt 4:1-11 to illustrate. Russ |

69 | At what moment do we go to heaven? | Eccl 12:7 | kw5kw | 155674 | ||
Greetings Steve. Unbelivers can range from: DON'T EVEN TALK TO ME ABOUT GOD! to Please tell me more. My brother-in-law... does not wish to see me anymore because he's so afraid that I'll even mention the "G" word to him. My son-in-law... never been to church, swears he never will. I am going to tread gently in my witnessing to him. My other daughter, however, is soaking all she can in about God. Funny thing, the daughter who is married to the one who has never been to chruch is the one who's been saved. My older daughter hasn't been saved and she's soaking it up. Go figure. Each person is different, Steve, I know a guy who used dope every day for 20 PLUS years, he now professes to be a beliver in God... praise the LORD! Do I stand on the street corner giving my testamony, not yet, maybe I should... :) I actually have found that so-called Christians are far more critical, however, of things that they don't belive in, such as: taboo subject here A Vs. C... or CoC Vs. everyone else on baptism saves. We argue amongst ourselves much more than we argue against anything else. To me that is sad! Russ |

Thank you for the speedy reply brother Tim, and if I offended i surly apologize, for that was not my intent. I was 10-10ing... from 1Co 10:10 "And do not grumble..." After reading this forum for a while and seeing all of the post about not posting scripture, well, I am sorry, I had to post, and this was the first post for me here in some time. Seems that every time I post something here, I get flamed. Here I go 10-10ing again. Sorry, you just happened to answer. I humbly beg your forgiveness and that of the fourm in general. I will say this, until one experiences something, one can not honestly comment on it. I've never riden on the Space Shuttle, but I have talked to it. I can tell you what that is like to talk to the shuttle, but I can't tell you what it is like to ride the shuttle. All I can do is marvle at what it might be like to take that ride. Unless you've talked to the shuttle you can marvle that I've talked to them. But it's as valid an illustration as I can come up with at the spare of the moment. I will also assume that you've never ridden the shuttle as well. I have talked to Jesus, I can tell you about that. I have taken a short ride with Jesus, I can tell you about that. All you can do is marvle at my talking to the space shuttle, riding on the space shuttle, my converstaion with Jesus and my short ride with Him. Does that make me better than you ... NO absolutely not, for we're all the same in Christ. I can however, share my expierence with you just as Paul shares his expierence with us in the books that he left us... The books we call the New Testament. I've not only marvle at Paul, but can understand 2co12. I understand the 'skolops' that he is refering to. You know that is the only time that 'skolops' is refered to in the NT. I hope you understand my illustration. I am your brother in Christ. Russ |

Greetings Brother Tim. I see that you're a pastor. How do you preach? Do you give illustrations? Do you solicit testamony from those in your congregration? Go they go like this? I was a disbeliver, I was lead to read the Bible, I'm saved. Thank God What led them to read the Holy Word of our LORD? Somebody had to witness to them, to bring them the grandest testamony of all times, the NEW Testament. My testamony is that God did save me. Jesus did indeed push me back, and that by testing not only what I say but how I say it by scripture, knowing 1JO4:1-4 when I say that Jesus is the Son of God in the Flesh, do they say that on these television shows that you mention on the SiFi? No that's all SiFi. Unbelivers are HUNGRY for something. I was starving. God came to me, I didn't go to Him, He knew I was hungry. He told me that I was His, that He loved me. I'm no longer hungry. The Holy Spirit dwells in me. He guides me. Just as the Bible says, it's true. When I go to church, my pastor gives a few samples of scripture, then he speaks a sermon. When I read Spurgeon, one scriputre is listed at the front by Book, chapter, verse. There are many others in there, but just not listed by book, chapter, verse just quoted. I feel, that if you are indeed a servant of the LORD GOD, then you will recognize my passages without me posting them all for you. I recognize them when I read them in my Spurgeon, I can look them up, I can test them. When I post, some of my posts are nothing but scripture, but would you preach a sermon from nothing but quotes out of the scriptures. I just think that people get a bit puffed up and hughty on these forums, thinking that every word is/should be a quote out of the holy Word. I know that GOD is a living God. That He speaks to us today. While the cannon of Scripture is sealed, His work is not done. Russ |

A bit more... I've been met with more dis-belief and scorn from church going, supposably Bible-reading Christians than I have met from unbelievers. Unbelivers listen, and want to understand. It helps them understand that there is indeed a God, that He is indeed very real and is there for US! Why can't so-called Christians, who are supposed to have knowledge of such things, understand? Could it be that Satan, while setting on their shoulder, whispers in their ear; "You don't believe that, here's scripture that says you shouldn't..." Could that be possible? I say it is. What I say is scriptural... check it out... test it for yourself... test everything. 2Co 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. That Satan makes you think that he is of God, and his little whispers make the belivers dis-believe testamony. Joh 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. Satan will bend anyone's ear to some facts and away from others. Satan knows the scriptures and how to used them. He knows the hows and whys to point many away from the truths. Just enough away to make it look bad. So you must test everything for your own... Test what I'm typing. Know this test this: Jesus is the Son of God, who was born of a virgin, who lived as flesh on the earth, who died for our sins, shed His blood for the redemption and our salvation. An evil spirit can't write (say)((type)) that: 1Jo4:1-3 |

question everything by scripture, that's what we are taught. However, having a near death expierence myself, I can be very understanding as I understand. I've been there. I share my expierences, and have been met with dis-belief and scorn as well. I understand the hurt that your are being felt by these haughty people who are puffed up on their own pride, for they haven't felt their 'skolops' in their side like I have. Peace be with you Bows44 and hopefully you'll beable to influence many with your testamony, for if we're not to tell of our testamony why are we to be witnesses to the greatest testamony of all, the gospel. And why this isn't found in scripture... "If the shoe fits, wear it." Your brother in Christ. |

74 | Opinions of J. Falwell on WTC attack. | Rom 3:23 | kw5kw | 152506 | ||
Greetings Mark, I agree with you... especially in his self-praise. 1 John 2:15 Do not love the world nor the things in the world If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. 17 The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever. (NASB) same words in the NIV: 15Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world. 17The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever. the key word here is boasting... pridefull boasting. It is of this world... with world being Satan. pridefull boasting is of Satan Russ |

75 | Therefore get wisdom, (what is it?) | Prov 1:7 | kw5kw | 147319 | ||
Wisdom is God. God living inside you gives you wisdom. How does God live inside you... the Holy Spirit. Follow this for a minute. Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. and Pro 8:22 The LORD possessed me [wisdom(from verse 1 in this chapter)] in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. Pro 8:23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. Wisdom is the Word which is Jesus which is The Spirit of God (Holy Spirit) which is God. |
||||||
76 | Wisdom vs. knowledge | Prov 1:7 | kw5kw | 147318 | ||
Two Facts: 1) You can have knowledge without wisdom. 2) You cannot have wisdom without knowledge. Pro 10:21 The lips of the righteous feed many: but fools die for want of wisdom. Pro 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. You must read the Bible (gain the knowledge) to know to ask God for His wisdom. (Jam 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.) Once you've gained God's wisdom, then you'll understand. Jam 3:17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. Jam 3:13 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him show out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. |

77 | Does this refrence the tyrant Mezentius? | Rom 7:24 | kw5kw | 147276 | ||

78 | Does this refrence the tyrant Mezentius? | Rom 7:24 | kw5kw | 147275 | ||
I dissagree: Here's my thoughts. Before you ask why did I ask if I knew, well I wanted to stimulate discussion. Rom 7:24 O wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from the body of this death? (KJV) Why did Paul say this, and what does it mean? Where did this come from, the carrying around of dead bodies? What don¡¯t we know? Philo the Jew(1) represents the body as a burden to the soul, which ¥í¥å¥ê¥ñ¥ï¥õ¥ï¥ñ¥ï¥ô¥ò¥á, "it carries about as a dead carcass, and never lies down from his birth till his death¡¦" The apostle Paul wanted to be a regenerated man. The whole of Romans chapters 6 and 7 is about sin, the death of sin, and how to be re-born in Christ. Paul¡¯s passionate account is finished more impressively by his groans of sorrow. ¡°O wretched man that I am!¡± These groans could be very reminiscent of a captured wounded soldier. One who has been having a prolonged and useless conflict against innumerable hosts and irresistible might! A man, who was finally wounded and lastly taken prisoner, and, to render his state even more miserable, not only is he imprisoned, but he is also chained to a dead body; for, that seems to be the allusion here (2)(3) . An allusion that refers to the ancient tyrant Mezentius (4) and the torture that he inflicted on criminals, namely murders. This punishment was to fasten the murder victims to the back of the murder. This dead body was never to be removed, under penalty of death. The living murder had to then carry his victim around with him everywhere he went. The Roman poet Virgil (70-19 BC) illustrates this atrocity in all its horrors, in the account that he gives of the tyrant Mezentius. What tongue can such barbarities record, Or count the slaughters of his ruthless sword? ¡®Twas not enough the good, the guiltless bled, Still worse, he bound the living to the dead: These, limb to limb, and face to face, he joined; O! monstrous crime, of unexampled kind! Till choked with stench, the lingering wretches lay, And, in the loathed embraces, died away! (5) Paul refers to his old dead self as the dead carcass, stinking and loathsome; and is referenced by him like the punishment just mentioned. Paul emphatically referred to the dying of the woman to the first husband, for example, the body of "this death", referring it to the captivity of one¡¯s mind and attaching it to the law of sin, which was like death to him. No wonder that he wanted deliverance so badly, saying, "who shall deliver me?" In which he speaks not as being ignorant of his deliverer, because he mentions Him with thankfulness in Rom_7:25. Paul knows that he does not doubt or despairing for his deliverance, for he was very much assured of it. He, therefore, gives thanks, to God, beforehand for it. It was as if he was first expressing the inward soul searching. In doing so he was breathing hard, panting. Afterwards we find the earnest, deep-breathing of his relaxed soul. It is as if he was declaring the impossibility of deliverance being obtained by himself. He knew he could not deliver himself from sin. He knew that the law could not deliver him from sin. He knew that none but Jesus could deliver him from sin. And, which he believed, nay, he had faith that Jesus would show His ever-loving agape Grace to Paul and thereby saving him forever and ever. Your Brother In Christ, Russ ... footnotes: 1 De Agricultura, p. 191. 2 Spurgeon Sermon #235 ¡°the Fainting Warrior¡±, January 23, 1859. 3 Nee, Watchman, ¡°The Normal Christian Life¡±, p. 172. 4 Mezentius king of the Tyrrhenians, noted for his cruelties and impiety. He was driven from his throne by his subjects, and fled to Turnus, King of the Rutuli. When ¨¡neas arrived he fought with Mezentius, and slew both him and his son Lausus. Mezentius put his subjects to death by tying a living man to a dead one. "He stretches out the arm of Mezentius, and fetters the dead to the living."- C. Bronte: Shirley, chap. xxxi. (http://www.websters-online-dictionary.org/Ma/Me/Mezentius.html) 5 Aeneid, lib. viii. ver. 485. |
||||||
79 | Does this refrence the tyrant Mezentius? | Rom 7:24 | kw5kw | 147273 | ||
Is this in reference to the type of punishment that the ancient ruler Mezentius introduced? One in which a dead body was tied on the living (most likely murder victim to murderer) and the living was forced to carry the dead body everywhere until he himself died. | ||||||
80 | Partly under the Law? | Col 2:14 | kw5kw | 146209 | ||
I agree with you, here is just another look at: The Ten Commandments Exodus 20 Jesus did not overthrow the Law of Moses. Remember what Jesus Said: Mat 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. Here are The Ten Commandments as pulled from Exodus 20 and compared to what Jesus and Paul said in the New Testament. 1. Exo 20:3 No other gods before me: Matthew 4:10 Then said Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 2 Exo 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image (idols): Paul said: 1Co 8:4 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one. 3 Exo 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain: Jesus said: Mar 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation: 4. Exo 20:8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. : Jesus said: Mat 12:8 For the Son of man is Lord even of the Sabbath day. 5. Exo 20:12 Honor thy father and mother: Jesus said: Mat 19:19 Honor thy father and thy mother 6. Exo 20:13 Thou shalt not kill: Jesus said: Mat 19:18 Thou shalt do no murder, 7. Exo 20:14 Thou shalt not commit adultery: Jesus said: Mat 19:18 Thou shalt not commit adultery 8. Exo 20:15 Thou shalt not steal : Jesus said: Mat 19:18 Thou shalt not steal 9. Exo 20:16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. : Jesus said: Mat 19:18 Thou shalt not bear false witness, 10. Exo 20:17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor's. : Romans 13:9 Paul said: Thou shalt not covet. Therefore the 10 Commandments are still with us today in full effect, either in the old covenant or the new one, they are still in effect. Mat 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. Russ |
