81 | Why am I not hearing from God | Bible general Archive 4 | Morant61 | 230534 | ||
Greetings Lkearse! You ask a very general question, but I would ask in return, 'Are you reading God's Word?' He has revealed Himself to us in His Word. If you read it, you are hearing from God. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

83 | what does matthew 5:2 mean | Matt 5:2 | Morant61 | 230031 | ||
Greetings Brenda49! This verse simply means that Jesus sat down and began to teach them verbally. The contents of Matthew 5:3-7:26 are what He said to His disciples. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

84 | Different fathers of Joseph. | NT general | Morant61 | 229347 | ||
Greetings! There are many different views about why the two lists differ. The best view that I have read is that Matthew traces the genealogy of Jesus through His assumed father, Joseph. While Luke traces the genealogy of Jesus through His mother, Mary. Both prove that Jesus was a descendent of David. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

85 | god's mercy why is there hell | John 3:16 | Morant61 | 229172 | ||
Greetings! John 3:16 tells us: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 12:32 tells us: "But I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself." Romans 10:13 says, "for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." So, if anyone refuses the gift of salvation, he only has himself to blame if he ends up in hell. As for the Jewish people under Hitler, they would make it to Heaven the same way that the rest of us do, by accepting the gift of salvation purchased for them by Jesus on the cross. He is the only way to salvation. Those who accepted Him will be in Heaven, those who did not, will be in Hell. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

86 | Did Jesus exist? No writings at His time | Bible general Archive 4 | Morant61 | 229170 | ||
Greetings! I would recommend the book, "Evidence that Demands a Verdict" by Josh McDowell. Or, "The Case for Christ", by Lee Strobel. They both do a great job of presenting the early evidence for Jesus. There is a multitude of it. :-) p.s. - Wiki is not a great resource. ;-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

87 | jesus...2year old-30.where was he? | Bible general Archive 4 | Morant61 | 229168 | ||
Greetings Saving my Family! God, in His infinite wisdom, gave us in the Bible everything we need for salvation, doctrine, and holy living. He doesn't tell us why no mention is made of Jesus' childhood, but we can rest assured that we don't need that information since God did not give it to us. :-) I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

89 | Did 2 or more enter Cannan Num14:29 | Num 14:29 | Morant61 | 228722 | ||
Greetings Petals! Based on Num. 26:65, I would say that no one over the age of 20, except Joshua and Caleb entered the promised land. Num 26:65 For the LORD had told those Israelites they would surely die in the desert, and not one of them was left except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

90 | Is drinking and smoking pot allowed | Rom 14:23 | Morant61 | 228608 | ||
Greetings Magie! Everyone will have different views of these topics. Most agree that drunkenness is a sin since Scripture explicitly forbids it. However, the easiest way to answer your question is to refer you to Rom. 14:23. In Romans 14, Paul deals with a series of disputable actions, actions that some felt were okay and some felt were sin. His ultimate conclusion is found in Rom. 14:23 that is something does not come from faith, then it is sin. If your own conscience condemns you, then don't do it. No matter what anyone else says! :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

91 | Is sinless perfection possible on earth? | 1 John 1:8 | Morant61 | 228595 | ||
Greetings Ed! As one of the forum's few, perhaps only, Wesleyan's, I would contribute a short response to your question. Entire Sanctification is often misunderstood. This doctrine does not teach that we have no sin, as prior to salvation, we all have sinned (Rom. 3:23). Nor, does this doctrine teach that it is impossible to sin. Any believer can give in to temptation, if they so choose. What the doctrine does teach is that it is possible for a Christian to live holy. Thus, it takes seriously the many statements that we are new creations (2 Cor. 5:17), and that we have new hearts that are able to follow His decrees (Ez. 36:26-27). Eph. 4:24 makes it clear that holiness ought to be the normal state for a believer. I won't deal in this post with Rom. 7 except to say that I have posted extensively on my understanding that Paul is describing his life apart from Christ, not with Christ. Rom. 5 and 8 describe what the Christian life ought to look like. So, to answer your question, "Can we go through life and never ever commit another sin?", I would say 'yes' if "...by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body..." (Rom. 8:13). But, we can also choose to live by the flesh, in which case the answer is 'no'. Keep up the great studies my friend! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

92 | what does 1 cor 7:12-14 say? | 1 Cor 7:12 | Morant61 | 228300 | ||
Greetings bob2cool! 1 Cor. 7:12-14 is speaking of a case where a person has become a believer and his or her spouse has not. In that case, Paul tells the believer not to divorce the unbelieving spouse. It is not teaching that it is okay to marry a non-believer. Think of it for a minute. Why would anyone want to marry someone who shares such a different view of the world. Husbands and wives may have differences in personality or interest, but they must be united in their goals for life. Thus, Scripture tells us not to be 'unequally yoked' (2 Cor. 6:14). Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

93 | Is God in the heart of every man? | Gen 6:5 | Morant61 | 228296 | ||
Greetings Slhenry! The short answer to your question is that the Bible never says any such thing. In fact, it says the opposite. For instance, Gen. 6:5 says, "The LORD saw how great man's wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time." While Jer. 17:9 says, "The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?" Rom. 1:21 describes the heart of fallen man in this way, "For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened." Fortunately, Acts 15:9 tells us that our hearts can be purified by faith. When that happens, God's Spirit enters our hearts: 2 Cor. 1:21 - "Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, 2Co 1:22 set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come." But, Gal. 4:6 tells us that this is true only of those who have become sons of the Father, " Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, "Abba, Father."" Eze. 36:26 tells us of the supernatural work that God does for those who believe, "I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh." But, God is not in the heart of EVERY man! I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

95 | what "scripture" James 4:5? | James 4:5 | Morant61 | 226930 | ||
Greetings! Here is what Dr. A. T. Robertson said about this question: "But no O.T. passage is precisely like this, though it is “a poetical rendering” (Ropes) of Exo_20:5. The general thought occurs also in Gen_6:3-5; Isa_63:8-16, etc. Paul has the same idea also (Gal_5:17, Gal_5:21; Rom_8:6, Rom_8:8). It is possible that the reference is really to the quotation in Jam_4:6 from Pro_3:34 and treating all before as a parenthesis. There is no way to decide positively." It was common for those in the first century to quote thoughts rather than exact words. So, the New Testament often alludes to passages rather than directly quoting them. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

97 | People saved during the tribulation | Rev 7:9 | Morant61 | 225427 | ||
Greetings Mossey! This question falls under the category of those that make us wonder what we were originally thinking! :-) I can remember all those who thought that God wasn't at church unless 2 or 3 people were there! Really? The Holy Spirit, as the third Person of the Trinity, is all present. There is no where, an no time, where God is not present. So, certainly, the Holy Spirit will be present during the tribulation. However, His ministry may be different than it is now. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

98 | What is Yanet? | OT general | Morant61 | 225415 | ||
Greetings! I googled the word and found that it is apparently a Hebrew girl's name based upon the Hebrew word 'Yochana', which means God is gracious. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

99 | Matthew 24:19:what does this mean | Matt 24:19 | Morant61 | 225299 | ||
Greetings Joseph01! Matthew 24 is a lengthy passage describing events from the time of Christ all the way to the end of the world. Matt. 24:19 seems to be a description of the events that would take place at the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 a.d. The phrase simply indicates that it would be very difficult for mothers and mother's to be to escape the city during it's destruction. Here is what Clarke says about this verse: "And wo unto them (alas! for them) that are with child, etc. - For such persons are not in a condition to make their escape; neither can they bear the miseries of the siege. Josephus says the houses were full of women and children that perished by the famine; and that the mothers snatched the food even out of their own children’s mouths. See War, b. v. c. 10. But he relates a more horrid story than this, of one Mary, the daughter of Eliezar, illustrious for her family and riches, who, being stripped and plundered of all her goods and provisions by the soldiers, in hunger, rage, and despair, killed and boiled her own sucking child, and had eaten one half of him before it was discovered. This shocking story is told, War, b. vi. c. 3, with several circumstances of aggravation." I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

100 | Where did the other people come from? | OT general | Morant61 | 225283 | ||
Greetings Warmspirit! The Bible does not tell us specifically where these people came from, but over time, everyone was descended from Adam and Eve. How much time passed before Cain killed Able? We do not know. But, we do know that a person's expected lifespan at that time was nearly 1,000 years. So, these other people were most likely descendants of his. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
