61 | HOSANNA Shout: When shall it be used? | Bible general Archive 2 | shalor | 101609 | ||
"Hosanna" is a transliteration of the Hebrew and the Aramaic, meaning "save now, we pray." The spontaneity of the crowd and the palm branches (a symbol of the nation) suggest liberation. They quote from Ps. 118:25, a psalm of thanksgiving for deliverance from an enemy. But Jesus repudiates their military and political aspirations by sitting on a donkey, symbolic of humility and peace, rather than mounting a horse, a symbol of conquest. The crowd's idea of the Messiah's purpose was far different from His own. He came to liberate from sin's oppression and not from that of Rome. This occured on the Sunday before Christ's crucifixion and before Passover. |

62 | GREAT COMMISSION: Is it Great Omission? | Matt 28:19 | shalor | 101604 | ||
(Mat 28:19-20 NASB) "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." The great commission say to: 1 make Disciple of them (i.e preach the gospel and train them) 2 Baptize them in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. 3 teach them to observe all that christ commanded. If you are not doing all those things then it is not the GREAT COMMISION but something else. |

64 | What about people who follow horoscopes? | Bible general Archive 2 | shalor | 101413 | ||
(Lev 19:26 NASB) 'You shall not eat anything with the blood, nor practice divination or soothsaying. (Deu 18:10 NASB) "There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, Since horoscopes are a form of Divination the old testament law was quite clear on the subject. The new testament frees us through Christ's propitiation from the law but teaches us to center our lives around Christ, both Christ in us and we in Christ. Is one's trust in the Stars or is it in the God who created the stars and gave us his son? If it is in the former the stars won't save if in the latter the the horoscope is not needed. |

And Isa 55:11 teaches (Isa 55:11 NASB) So shall My word be which goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me empty, Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it. And Matthew 28 teaches (Mat 28:19-20 NASB) "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." My conclusion here is that Jesus tells us to carry the word and it will accomplish what is desired. I don't even have to know why I should do it or What God plans to do with it. |

Deu 29:29 NKJV ""The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law." Isa 55:8-9 NKJV ""For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD. 9 "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts." A lot can be said with those 2 verses. Just do it wether you understand why or not. |

Matt 10 37 "He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. Read luke 14:26 in context to the meaning of Matt 10:37. I think it become clear what Jesus meant. |

http://www.calvarychapel.com/library/smith-chuck/books/caatwog.htm CALVINISM, ARMINIANISM AND THE WORD OF GOD the above url gives a good starting read on cavinism and Arminianism with out severely trying to twist you either way. Remember both Calvinism and Arminism a derived by starting out with the word of God and trying to apply Aristoliean logic. Neither Calvin, Arminius, or Aristotle were Jesus. If you end up with a conclusion that contrdicts the word of god or keeps you from following it, you can safely throw it away, no mater how many people try to convince you otherwise. |

74 | Kingdom of God...now? | Ephesians | shalor | 101320 | ||
Eph 4 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; 13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fulness of Christ. The degree that one experices it wuould best be decribed in verse 13 to a mature man. The fancy term for this is sanctification. it is a continual Growing process and will never be complete until the final cumulation of the Kingdom at Christ's return. 2 Cor 12 9 And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may dwell in me. The power of Christ to dwell in us is determined by how much strength or oppisition we put up to it. much like the difference between a 40 watt light bulb abd a 100 watt light buld the 40 watt bulb put up more internal resistance and therfore put out less light. |

75 | Kingdom of God...now? | Ephesians | shalor | 101314 | ||
The kingdom of God in an eternal Kingdom. It existed( exists, will exist) without reference to time. God's salvation through Grace gives us entrance into that kingdom now and in time eternal. Eph 1 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 20 which He brought about in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, Eph 2 6 and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places, in Christ Jesus, Eph 3 10 in order that the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places. Eph 6 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. |

While the Dunk em and Chunk em mentality is wide practised it is not what Scripture teaches. A Christian is a disciple of Christ( acts 11:26) and a disciple is a learner, scholar and a follower (any standard dictionary). If there is any thing I can do to assist you, just let me know |

Matt 219 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Some do it simply beacuse they were ordered to do it! |

What make the concept diificult is that God is not limited to our concept of time. The fact he exists in yesterday. today, and tomorrow allows him to have a plan that unfolds to us. The sovereignty of God is not versus the free will of man but rather the free will of man is granted by the sovereignty of God. We are not puppets but god does know our future actions and has the power to influence them according to His will. It is always Gods will not ours that will prevail (in out view of time)or has already prevailed (in Gods view of time) |

Traditionally is was celebrated on the first day of the week, but that was when christians came together. The scripture also say where 2 or 3 or more are gathered in my name I will be there. To celebrate the Lords Supper at any time Christians are gathered is not against scripture | ||||||
