7501 | Is prophecy dead? | Matt 11:13 | kalos | 1731 | ||
"Therefore I say unto you, Every sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men; but the blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven." Matt 12:31 (ASV 1901) . . . CAUTION: The blasphemy against the Holy Spirit consists in ascribing to Satan the work of the Holy Spirit (compare Matt 12:24). Sir, I am not saying that is what you have done. Nor am I saying that you are either completely right or completely wrong. In fact, I do not believe you are entirely wrong. So I do not judge either you or your comment. I merely point out that none of us would want to be guilty of ascribing to Satan the work of the Holy Spirit. |

7502 | Does Jude 1:17 answer Eph 4:11? | Eph 4:11 | kalos | 1715 | ||
RC, my sincere apology if I misundertood what the debate was over. I honestly didn't realize you all were discussing the office of prophets and apostles. For some reason I thought you were discussing the gifts of the Spirit. My fault. Thanks for clarifying the question for me. Sincerely, JVH0212. | ||||||
7503 | Does Jude 1:17 answer Eph 4:11? | Eph 4:11 | kalos | 1676 | ||
Jude 1:17 proves that the 'pneumatika', spritual gifts, ceased at some point in the past? I hardly think so. Quoting Jude 1:17 to prove this point is really stretching things a bit, don't you think? Why do people quote 1-2 lines of Scripture followed by 20 lines of "reasoning" to make their point? Is there no clear verse of Scripture that answers Charis' question? | ||||||
7504 | Where did Easter get its name? | NT general Archive 1 | kalos | 1675 | ||
Thank you for your very interesting and informative answer. Additionally, according to the World Almanac, Easter is observed on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox (the first day of spring). | ||||||

7508 | Yes, but Is Easter of pagan origin? | NT general Archive 1 | kalos | 1658 | ||
My sincere thanks for your answer. Can you support your answer with either Scriptural or historical references? Generally, I sort of agree with you. Nowhere in the Bible are we commanded to remember the birth of Jesus (Christmas). But we are definitely commanded to remember his death and resurrection (Easter). However, this alone doesn't answer the questions, "Is Easter derived from a Pagan celebration? What is the historical origin of Easter?" Surely the Bible makes no mention of bunny rabbits, Easter eggs, Easter egg baskets and hunts, Ft. Lauderdale, chocolate candy, etc. | ||||||

7510 | Please explain this verse? | Mark 15:34 | kalos | 1591 | ||
Dear bcloyd: Let me try to clarify my comment a bit. When I wrote "It's too bad no one responded to you directly," it was not I who was making that remark. I was merely quoting another member who said that. I was being facetious in my comments. Certainly there was more than one direct reply to the question. I don't think my own answer was too bad. It was not I who accused you of avoiding to respond directly to the question. The very idea that only one of us did is absurd. Your answer is a perfectly sound one. No criticism of you was intended. If you will go to the tree (diagram of the original question and its answers) and read the comments posted on 03-21-2001, 8:50 PM, "That's the way I see it, too," I think you will better understand my previous reply.

7511 | Is Easter mentioned in the Bible? | NT general Archive 1 | kalos | 1588 | ||
Thank you for your answer. I would just like to point out one thing. First, the absence of a word from the text of the Bible does not necessarily mean that the concept is not in the Bible. Having said that, please note that I have done some research myself on the term Easter. The word does not appear at all in the New King James Version, the New American Standard Bible or the Revised Standard Version. Of the four versions in which I looked up Easter, the word occurs only in the King James Version and then only once -- in Acts 12:4. Upon further research I found that the word translated Easter in the KJV is the Greek word that literally means "the Passover." So, in fact, the word Easter is not mentioned in many places in the Bible. It's mentioned only once in only one translation that I've seen so far. And even there it is the word that literally means "the Passover." But I do thank you for your interest and your reply. | ||||||

Easter - what is its origin? Is it true Easter is derived from a Pagan celebration? |
||||||
7513 | Is Easter mentioned in the Bible? | NT general Archive 1 | kalos | 1564 | ||
Is Easter mentioned in the Bible? The celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ has become referred to often as "Easter". But is this term even mentioned in the Bible? |

7514 | What makes John the Baptist greater ? | Luke 7:27 | kalos | 1554 | ||
That's the way I see it too. It's too bad no one else responded to this question directly. BD, I looked up the answer to the question in several annotated Bibles. All are in agreement that your answer is indeed THE answer to the question. Good work, sir. I also commend you on the fact that you cited several Scripture references to support your answer. In general, whatever the question, I don't put much stock in lengthy answers that do not cite even one Scripture reference to back them up. | ||||||
7515 | Does anyone remember this verse? | 1 Cor 16:14 | kalos | 1553 | ||
To whom it may concern: "Let all that ye do be done in love." 1 Cor 16:14 American Standard Version (ASV 1901) |

7516 | Please explain this verse? | Mark 15:34 | kalos | 1551 | ||
Subject: Please explain this verse? Mark 15:34 Note: "That's the way I see it too. It's too bad no one responded to you directly." What in the world is this forum coming to? Out of more than a dozen replies, only one person responded to the question directly? What a pity that only one among us had the great wisdom and knowledge to respond directly -- capitalized pronouns and all! Yeah, right. |

7518 | My God, My God, why have you forsaken me | Mark 15:34 | kalos | 1538 | ||
Why have you forsaken me? Mark 15:34 "Jesus felt keenly His abandonment by the Father, resulting from God's wrath being poured out on Him as the substitute for sinners." (p. 1500, MacArthur Study Bible, Word Publishing, 1997) . . . 2 Cor 5:21 "'sin for us.' God the Father, using the principle of imputation, treated Christ as if He were a sinner though He was not, and had Him die as a substitute to pay the penalty for the sins of those who believe in Him. On the cross, He did not become a sinner (as some suggest), but remained as holy as ever. He was treated as if He were guilty of all the sins ever committed by all who would ever believe, though He committed none. The wrath of God was exhausted on Him and the just requirement of God's law met for those for whom He died." (p. 1772, MacArthur Study Bible, Word Publishing, 1997) . . . JVH0212 "[being] ready always to give answer to every man that asketh you a reason concerning the hope that is in you." 1 Pet 3:15 (ASV 1901) |

7520 | Best commentary on Revelation? | Revelation | kalos | 1511 | ||
Best commentary on revelation? . . . This is another non-answer to a question originally posted on 03-13-2001, 8:56PM. I hope that some of the members of this forum find the following to be informative and of interest. . . . I fully concur with EdB's (see Answer on Revelation by EdB, 03-20-2001, 1:19PM) short list of authors recommended for their reliability and trustworthiness. Following is a list of authors who, in my opinion, are doctrinally sound, reliable, and trustworthy in their teachings and writings. They are rooted firmly in the Bible and in the mainstream of the historic Christian faith. They are: . . . 1) The Christian Research Institute; 2)David Jeremiah; 3) D. James Kennedy; 4) John MacArthur; 5) Josh McDowell; 6) Charles Caldwell Ryrie; 7) Adrian Rogers; 8) R.C. Sproul; 9) Charles Stanley; 10) Chuck Swindoll. . . . (Disclaimer: Infallibility is claimed neither for or by any man on this list. No man is infallible. No translation of the Bible is infallible. Only the Bible itself IN THE ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPTS is both without error and incapable of error. Also, I do not claim this to be an exhaustive list of every reliable author in the history of the church. These names are merely among today's best known and most trusted teachers and writers. If I left out your favorite, I apologize. I am only speaking for myself, and no one else.) |
