It is the cosequences of alcohlism in our North American Society that many congregations have chosen to use unalcoholized grape juice as the symbol of the shed blood of Christ so as not to offend those who are in recovery and not to have a temptation to those who are still struggling. | ||||||

I know, I was just trying to make a point. The commands in the Pentateuch were for the Children of Israel before (prepatory) to entoring the prommised land. If we, now, are required to follow all of them or go to hell, then the command to stone sabbath-breakers is just as binding as the command to stone witches, etc. | ||||||

1. What are you talking about? Jehovah is mentioned throughout the Bible. 2. Jesus was crucified on a cross, the Roman instrument of execution. He bore our sins on the cross. of course, as Paul said : 1 Cor 1:18 For the story and message of the cross is sheer absurdity and folly to those who are perishing and on their way to perdition, but to us who are being saved it is the [manifestation of] the power of God. |

They are translations from one language into another. languages change. we no longer say 'thee', 'thou' 'ye', ect. Each translation tries to make the words that were written in Hebrew and Greek readable to readers of their day. | ||||||
68 | Saved yet unfruitful? | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 47143 | ||
salvation is our recognition that we are barren, and lacking in the fruits of the spirit in our life; that we need Jesus to bring us to a new birth. And, as new babes these things take time to grow in our lives. 2 Cor 13:5 tells us to test ourselves to see this growth -- to see if we are truely in the vine, and drawing of thelife-giveing power He speaks of in verse 4. That's just my meusing. I saw a study about testing ourselves : PROVE YOUR OWN SELVES. 2 COR. 13.5 This is a needful work. beware of the deceitfulness of the heart. This self-proving should be done-- 1. INSTANTLY. The secret of our failure should be searched out at once. 2. WILLINGLY. Are your prepared to know yourself? -- ready to have a sight of hidden sin? 3. CAREFULLY. Let no beloved sin decieve you. Judge each by their fruits. Don't label things hamless that are unholy. 4. FEARLESSLY. with the lamp of God's searching Word (Heb. 4:12) 5. MERCILESSLY. spare no Agag. Make confession. Acknowledge sin (Ps. 51:3). 6. HONESTLY. Be severe on the sin, but approve what is good. Distinguage between sin and infirmities. 7. PRAYERFULLY. Remember, the Lord alone can search the heart. "Search me, O God; try my heart," |

69 | How do I learn to trust in God. | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 47270 | ||
As we read the Bible we see that God is trustworthy. Seeing that being so, we step out of ourself and TRUST Him to keep His promises. Ps 1:2 But his delight and desire are in the law of the Lord, and on His law (the precepts, the instructions, the teachings of God) he habitually meditates (ponders and studies) by day and by night. [Rom. 13:8-10; Gal. 3:1-29; II Tim. 3:16.] Ps 1:3 And he shall be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity]. [Jer. 17:7, 8.] Jer 17:7 [Most] blessed is the man who believes in, trusts in, and relies on the Lord, and whose hope and confidence the Lord is. Jer 17:8 For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters that spreads out its roots by the river; and it shall not see and fear when heat comes; but its leaf shall be green. It shall not be anxious and full of care in the year of drought, nor shall it cease yielding fruit. |

71 | Is the Bible filled with TRUTH? | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 47882 | ||
Our salvation is not based on a translation of the Scriptures but the truth of the death and resurrection of Jesus which is proclaimed in all translations. Remember we have the Holy Spirit bearing witness to us that we are the children of God. John 20:31 But these are written (recorded) in order that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ (the Anointed One), the Son of God, and that through believing and cleaving to and trusting and relying upon Him you may have life through (in) His name [through Who He is]. [Ps. 2:7, 12.] |

I am sorry that your pastor has chosen to deny the Lord Jesus by denying His words. Here is what the Greek scholars say about the passage where Jesus promised the thief on the croos that he would be with Him that day in Paradise: (as you can see, the King James does translate that verse acurately.) A. T. Robertson wrote : Today shalt thou be with me in Paradise (Semeron met' emou esei en toi paradeisoi). However crude may have been the robber’s Messianic ideas Jesus clears the path for him. He promises him immediate and conscious fellowship after death with Christ in Paradise which is a Persian word and is used here not for any supposed intermediate state; but the very bliss of heaven itself. ------------------- your paster's other statment about 'My Father and I are one' meaning that they are like one just shows that he does not know his Greek. He is just rejecting the truth of God's word to fit his own unbelief. Again the Greek scholars verify that the KJV translated THAT verse accuratly: One (hen). Neuter, not masculine (heis). Not one person (cf. heis in Gal 3:28), but one essence or nature. ... The Pharisees had accused Jesus of making himself equal with God as his own special Father (Joh 5:18). Jesus then admitted and proved this claim (Joh 5:19-30). Now he states it tersely in this great saying repeated later (Joh 17:11, Joh 17:21). Note hen used in 1Co 3:3 of the oneness in work of the planter and the waterer and in Joh 17:11, Joh 17:23 of the hoped for unity of Christ’s disciples. This crisp statement is the climax of Christ’s claims concerning the relation between the Father and himself (the Son). They stir the Pharisees to uncontrollable anger. ---- I like what John Gill had to say : I and my Father are one. Not in person, for the Father must be a distinct person from the Son, and the Son a distinct person from the Father; and which is further manifest, from the use of the verb plural, "I and my Father", åóìåí, "we are one"; that is, in nature and essence, and perfections, particularly in power; since Christ is speaking of the impossibility of plucking any of the sheep, out of his own and his Father's hands; giving this as a reason for it, their unity of nature, and equality of power; so that it must be as impracticable to pluck them out of his hands, as out of his Father's, because he is equal with God the Father, and the one God with him. |

God Bless. Pasters are to be dispensers of faith, not unbelief. 2 Cor 3:6 [It is He] Who has qualified us [making us to be fit and worthy and sufficient] as ministers and dispensers of a new covenant [of salvation through Christ], not [ministers] of the letter (of legally written code) but of the Spirit; for the code [of the Law] kills, but the [Holy] Spirit makes alive. [Jer. 31:31.] |

74 | I'm not sure this is applicable | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 55984 | ||
If Jesus is our Lord and Master, it is our duty and joy to obey Him not give Him orders. As we focus on Him, all things else fall away. We do things in order to please Him. He died because of our vices. Do we really want to cause Him pain? He is there for us to help us overcome them. It is our obligation to abide in Him. |

77 | Is praying to created beings scriptural? | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 62754 | ||
Complete Webster's definition : 1. In worship, a solemn address to the Supreme Being, consisting of adoration, or an expression of our sense of God's glorious perfections, confession of our sins, supplication for mercy and forgiveness, intercession for blessings on others, and thanksgiving, or an expression of gratitude to God for his mercies and benefits. A prayer however may consist of a single petition, and it may be extemporaneous, written or printed. |

Jesus taught us about God the Father. Jesus is God with us, Immanuel. who has all the attributes of deity see Phil. 2:6. The Holy Spirit is God, as lying to the Holy Spirit is lying to God, Acts 5:3. Our bodies are the temple of God the Holy Spirit, 1 Corinthians 3:16 Do you not discern and understand that you [the whole church at Corinth] are God's temple (His sanctuary), and that God's Spirit has His permanent dwelling in you [to be at home in you, collectively as a church and also individually]? 1 Cor 6:19 Do you not know that your body is the temple (the very sanctuary) of the Holy Spirit Who lives within you, Whom you have received [as a Gift] from God?

"The church is a group of people who have been redeemed by the precious blood, regenerated by the Holy Spirit, and have meanwhile committed themselves into God's hand, gladly doing His will, and gladly standing on the earth for Him to maintain His testimony" Watchman Nee "The Prayer Ministry of the Church" 15 |

Jesus, god with us, spoke of His Father as God, and spokeof the Holy Spirit as a separate person from Himself. the statement "Jesus was a glimpse of who God was but not the complete form of God as he was merely a man." directly denys the fact that Phil 2:6 Who, although being essentially one with God and in the form of God [possessing the fullness of the attributes which make God God], did not think this equality with God was a thing to be eagerly grasped or retained, Phil 2:7 But stripped Himself [of all privileges and rightful dignity], so as to assume the guise of a servant (slave), in that He became like men and was born a human being. that is BEING one with God. He always was and was not created because He ceated everything that is. Jesus is the Creator, not the created. He is God (John 1:1) |
