7621 | Are christians exempt from judgement? | 2 Cor 5:10 | kalos | 862 | ||
John 5:24 (KJV) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. . . . Rom 8:1 (NASB)Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. |

7622 | Can one who commits suicide be saved? | Ex 20:13 | kalos | 858 | ||
Matt 12:31 (KJV) Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. . . . See, I am wrong again. And apparently Jesus is, too. I was always taught there is only one unforgivable sin -- the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. But, now I find there are two others, as well: divorce and suicide. . . . I guess this is what is meant by the term progressive revelation. There used to be one unforgivable sin, but now there are three. |

7623 | Where are guardian angels mentioned? | Bible general Archive 1 | kalos | 856 | ||
NASB Ps 91:11 For He will give His angels charge concerning you, To guard you in all your ways. Ps 91:12 They will bear you up in their hands, That you do not strike your foot against a stone. |

7624 | Do you believe once save, always saved. | Luke 23:43 | kalos | 855 | ||
ONCE LOST, ALWAYS LOST. . . . "Once saved, always saved." This statement is not in the Bible. Nor is it a phrase used by Baptist preachers. The only people who use this phrase are the ones who reject the Bible doctrine of Eternal Security, the opposite of which would be Eternal Insecurity. . . .While "once saved, always saved" is hotly debated, one thing is for certain: Once lost, salvation is always lost. " . . . logically Heb. 6:4 implies that if salvation were to be lost, it would be impossible for that person to be born again, lose it, and then be born again again. This much is clear: whoever openly and consciously rejects Jesus Christ is unregenerate even if he seemed to have been saved ealier." Whether he had lost his salvation or never had it to begin with, "either way, the result is identical." (note at Heb. 6:4ff, NRSV Harper Study Bible) |

7626 | WHY DO WE NEED TO EVANGALIZE? | Matt 28:19 | kalos | 851 | ||
NASB . . . Matt 28:18 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Matt 28:19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, Matt 28:20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." |

7627 | WHERE IS THE ARK OF THE COVENANT? | OT general | kalos | 847 | ||
Although you may find many "authorities" who know the answer to your question, the actual location of the Ark of the Covenant is unknown. | ||||||
7628 | Upon death do we go directly to Heaven? | Luke 23:43 | kalos | 835 | ||
2 Cor 5:6-8 (NKJV) 6 So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight. 8 We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord. . . . Philippians 1:21-24 (NKJV) 21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell. 23 For I am hard pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. 24 Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you. |

7629 | Author of James, brother of Jesus? | James | kalos | 834 | ||
"Of the 4 men named James in the NT, only two are candidates for authorship of this epistle. No one has seriously considered James the Less, the son of Alphaeus . . . , or James the father of Judas, not Iscariot . . . Some have suggested James the son of Zebedee and brother of John (Matt. 4:21), but he was martyred too early to have written it (Acts 12:2). That leaves only James, the oldest half-brother of Christ (Mark 6:3) and brother of Jude (Matt 13:55)." (MacArthur Study Bible, p. 1924) | ||||||
7630 | where do blacks come from? | Bible general Archive 1 | kalos | 833 | ||
If the question is "according to the Bible, where do blacks come from"; then the answer is there is not a clear verse of Scripture telling us where blacks come from. It is unwise to speculate about that on which the Bible is silent. As an American, you are free to speculate all you want to. But, as one who relies solely on the authority of Scripture for all doctrine and practice, leave speculation to others. | ||||||
7631 | Help with misled teen with gender issues | 1 Pet 5:7 | kalos | 818 | ||
I very much appreciate your note. Yes, Rom 8:28 is still true. God is still in control. The best thing I can tell you is: God does all things perfectly and nothing happens by chance or by accident. Remember, the Lord promises that He will never leave you nor forsake you. I try to encourage you and you end up encouraging me by your faith. God bless you. In Christ we have NO unmet needs. | ||||||
7632 | Have you ever looked at Urantia Book? | Rev 19:4 | kalos | 815 | ||
Charis, I agree with you completely on this subject. To the curious I would point out: The canon of the Bible is complete. It has been completed since before the end of the first century A.D. BEWARE of any alleged new revelation -- that which is not found in the complete and unchanging Word of God. There is not nor will there ever be a 67th book of the Bible. Neither the Book of Mormon, the writings of Russel or Rutherford (Jehovah's Witnesses), Mary Baker Eddy, nor the Brownsville revival constitute the 67th book of the Bible. . . . I too have "been there, done that." And I aint NEVER goin back. |

7633 | Who are the 24 elders in this verse? | Rev 19:4 | kalos | 814 | ||
Hi, Xapis. Yes, my answer is really from the Bible in the sense that I do not speculate on what the Bible does not say. It's enough of a challenge to understand what the Bible does say. (On the other hand, I do quote a note from a study Bible. So I guess you and I are both right.) You're also a blessing to me. Always look forward to reading your input. My sincere thanks to you! Yours is a good answer. | ||||||
7634 | Who are the 24 elders in this verse? | Rev 19:4 | kalos | 800 | ||
Since the 24 elders are neither named nor identified, then we do not know their identity with any certainty. The 24 elders are "representative of either the whole company of believers in heaven or an exalted angelic order worshiping and serving God there . . . The number 24 is often understood to reflect the 12 Israelite tribes of the OT and the 12 apostles of the NT." (Zondervan NASB Study Bible, p. 1854) | ||||||
7635 | Why do we disagree? | 1 Thessalonians | kalos | 790 | ||
Truly I do not know the answer to your question: "...how can we...disagree on something that important?" You may as well ask, if we are all one body, then why are there so many different denominations? I suspect that if a person could answer one of these question, he'd be halfway to answering the other, as well. | ||||||
7636 | What does watch over your heart mean? | Prov 4:23 | kalos | 789 | ||
The best commentary is a good translation. "Carefully guard your thoughts because they are the source of true life" (Ps 4:23 Contemporary English Version). | ||||||
7637 | What does Bible teach on election? | Bible general Archive 1 | kalos | 767 | ||
First, thanks for the excellent idea of setting up a temporary hotmail email account to communicate with other members of this website. Good work! . . . Second, please note: what people usually call predestination is actually the doctrine of election. The two terms are not synonymous. "Divine predestination means that God has a purpose that is determined long before it is brought to pass. It implies that God is infinitely capable of planning and then bringing about what he has planned, and Scripture speaks of him as doing this" (p. 628, Baker's Theological Dictionary of the Bible, Edited by Walter A. Elwell, Baker Books). For example, Rom 8:29 (NASB) "For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren;" . . . On the other hand, "Election is the act of God whereby in eternity past He chose those who will be saved. Election is unconditional, because it does not depend on anything outside of God, such as good works or foreseen faith (Romans 9:16). This doctrine is repeatedly taught in the Bible, and is also demanded by our knowledge of God. . . . . . . "In 2 Thessalonians 2:13, the apostle Paul tells his readers, "God has chosen (elected) you from the beginning for salvation." . . . "In summary, we can say that God has had a special love relationship with the elect from all eternity, and on the basis of that love relationship chosen them for salvation. The ultimate question of why God chose some for salvation and left others in their sinful state is one that we, with our finite knowledge, cannot answer. We do know that God's attributes always are in perfect harmony with each other, so that God's sovereignty will always operate in perfect harmony with His goodness, love, wisdom, and justice." (John MacArthur at www.gty.org, under Issues and Answers, "What Does the Bible Teach About Election?") (. . . For further study: John MacArthur, The Love of God (Dallas: Word, 1996); J. I. Packer, Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God (Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity, 1961). © 2000 Grace to You) . . . Third, while all Christians do believe in election, not all Christians define election in the same way. |

I'm sorry. I am confused. WHAT is your question? | ||||||
7639 | Help with misled teen with gender issues | 1 Pet 5:7 | kalos | 764 | ||
I would not be so foolish as to try to answer your question with a one-size-fits-all Bible verse. Finding a Christian counselor is not an easy task. Especially if you live, as I do, in a small rural area. Be assured God does care and He loves you and your son. I would suggest calling 1-800-4 PRAYER. The folks there don't do couseling, but they can sure encourage you with their prayers. | ||||||
7640 | Have you ever looked at Urantia Book? | Rev 19:4 | kalos | 761 | ||
Just give us the who, what, where, when. Who wrote the book? Who endorses it? What is the book about in general? Where did the book have its origin? When did the book come into being? Also, if there are organized followers of the book, you may want to tell us something about them. I hope my answer is of some help to you. Again, thanks for sharing with us. | ||||||
