81 | What about the unreacheed peoples? | Rom 10:17 | disciplerami | 76593 | ||
Hi Searcher, Can you 'hear' me? ;) "What about those who never heard.." What about 'em? Do you have a point? Oh,...I get it, you are still insisting--contrary to what Paul says in Romans 1--that some people hear nothing. I'm curious, does that mean they 'hear' nothing of God until the judgment day. And do you believe they hear nothing because, a)they have stopped their own ears, or b) God stopped their ears? I would say they heard, but didn't like what they heard, and so they closed their ears (Matthew 13:15). I don't suppose you will answer my questions. -Huckleberryami |

82 | What about where the Gospel hasn't gone? | Rom 10:17 | disciplerami | 76594 | ||
You've already 'heard' from me on this question. Good day. Huckleberryami |

Sorry, question in wrong place. | ||||||
85 | Can you hear what you see or heard? | Rom 10:17 | disciplerami | 76754 | ||
I hear what you are saying. And I think you hear too. So why can't we agree that HEARING is necessary even if the initial message is HEARD in the Creation. Psalm 19:1 "THE HEAVENS ARE TELLING OF THE GLORY OF GOD; AND THEIR EXPANSE IS DECLARING THE WORK OF HIS HANDS." Surely, you can no longer persist in this. Paul says in Romans 1, 'they are without excuse.' The reason is because they cannot say they did not know, they did not hear. Good day. |

86 | disciplerami, are they saved or lost? | Rom 10:17 | disciplerami | 77111 | ||
Please restate, the sentence structure is broken and hard to understand. | ||||||
87 | How does a right heart save? | Rom 10:17 | disciplerami | 77240 | ||
Rom 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; Rom 10:10 for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. How does a right heart save? Paul says, "if you believe in your heart, you shall be saved." Salvation follows a right heart. |

88 | Are those who never heard saved or lost? | Rom 10:17 | disciplerami | 77241 | ||
Until a person hears, believes and obeys the Gospel (2 Thess 1:7-9; 1 Peter 4:16,17, must obey the Gospel too) he is not saved. But as I've stated before, the first message we 'hear', understand and know (Psalm 19:1; Romans 1:18-20) is from the Creation. This message sparks the natural spiritual inclination of each man and causes him to seek and grope and find the Creator. Ultimtely, his search will lead him to the Gospel. When he has heard and obeyed it, he will be saved. Searcher, you are good asking questions, and you are good at posting others people's work, and you are good at sending people off to the netherland of old posts, but where is your work, where is the evidence of your deep study? That's what I would like to see. I have given you plenty to think about and respond to, but you give very little. We all must conclude that you are still wrestling with these things. Have a good day. I am sincere when I say, may God bless you as you seek His will. Disciplerami |

89 | Unbelieving spouse sanctified? | 1 Cor 7:14 | disciplerami | 76963 | ||
Hello, I think you make a good point, how can the spouse and children be sanctified and unsaved? "How do you know, O wife, whether you wills ave your husband?" I think the best answer is that the spouse is not saved, but the potential for the spouse being sanctified is highest if the Christian mate stays. "For the unbelieving husband is sanctified through his wife...." Real world experience tells us how true this is. If or when that spouse becomes a Christian, it is through the believing mate. It's the best answer I have. If you have some thoughts on this, I would like to hear them. Thanks and good day. |

90 | Baptism in the Holy Spirit? | 1 Cor 12:13 | disciplerami | 76647 | ||
The household of Cornelius. Acts 11:16 "And I remembered the word of the Lord, how He used to say, 'John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.' Acts 11:17 "Therefore if God gave to them the same gift as He gave to us also after believing in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could stand in God's way?" The Baptism of the Holy Spirit came with signs on the day of Pentecost and at the household of Cornelius. First the Apostles -- 'are not all these Galileans?' -- and then the Gentiles. Tongue speaking accompanied the outpouring. Tongues were in the language of men, understandable speech, always for the purpose of edification. Good day. |

91 | once saved, always saved? | Col 1:13 | disciplerami | 75962 | ||
The Colossians 1:13 is a good verse for showing that Paul is talking to Christians at Colossae. Verse 22-23 of the same chapter say, "He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and neyond reproach--IF INDEED YOU CONTINUE in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard,..." The chapter shows that the Colossians were indeed saved, and would stay saved if they continue in the faith and remain steadfast. This is a verse to show that Christians need to be diligent lest they "should be disqualified" (1 Corinthians 9:27). Good day. |

92 | Husband of but one wife - Elder? | 1 Tim 3:2 | disciplerami | 75959 | ||
Hi Middleton, The primary text for Elder qualifications are found in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1. Taking the verses at face value, the one being considered has only one wife--and has had but one wife. That is the strictest interpretation and the safest. You ask "does this mean that he can never be married?" Well, if Paul says the he is the husband of one wife, the answer is that he is married. The one wife at a time problem is what we have today in our disposable society. When you get tired of one, you get another. God's plan is that a man have one woman for life and that a woman have one man for life. That is God's plan and let no man put asunder what He has joined. "Divorce for the Biblical reason?" Good question, and maybe becomes a judgment call, but my first impulse is to say no. The reason I lean this way is because the man, though free to remarry, is not blameless. A failed marriage does reflect on him. It possibly says something of his judgment to have married that person in the first place. It's a judgment call and the congregation must feel that the man is above reproach and that his family offers a clear example of his leadership ability. Let me know more of your thoughts. Good day. |

93 | Elder must be 'the husband of one wife'? | 1 Tim 3:2 | disciplerami | 75960 | ||
"It Behoves Therefore" (1 Tim. 3:2) indicates the necessity of the following items. Just as the man in question MUST be above reproach, he MUST be the husband of one wife. Timothy and Titus are charged with appointing Elders and they must be careful not to lay hands on them too quickly, that they not participate in the sins of others (1 Tim 5:22). When the selection process gets to the 'let them be tested' phase, the church must examine what kind of leadership he offers at home: the good shepherd in the home will be a good shepherd for the church family. I know it's not a popular position, but I feel it is the rightest. :) That's my two cents. Good day. |

94 | What is Messianic Bible? | 2 Tim 3:16 | disciplerami | 79146 | ||
Greetings, I'm not sure what the 'Messianic Bible' is. Probably one of the new generation of Bibles that emphasizes a particular theme [like 'Athlete's Bible, Golfer's Bible, Parchese Player's Bible]: which I dislike. What have you found out? Disciplerami |

95 | Can there be women pastors? | Titus 1:5 | disciplerami | 76390 | ||
Sure, if she's the husband of one wife. | ||||||
96 | If you are saved can you lose it | Heb 6:6 | disciplerami | 75564 | ||
Not if you have no free will. If you have free will, then yes you can lose it. Hebrews 6:6 and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame." I know that most people don't believe this because they've slipped down the slippery slope of 'total depravity', but the doctrine of eternal security is false. A Christian is not perfect and as long as he keeps the faith, walks in the light, carries the cross daily, then the blood of God's Son cleanses him continually (1 John 1). But if he steps out of the light, tantamount to turning away from and shaking a fist at God, then the grace stops. James 5:19,20. Good day. |

97 | disciplerami, reconcile with Rom 6:23 | Heb 6:6 | disciplerami | 75747 | ||
"Do not be ignorant, but understand what is the will of the Lord." - Ephesians 5:17 "There is no sin, that in a time of weakness" ...that is not forgiven. -- this is the finished thought. My point is that Christians, who are walking in the light, who trust in the promises of God and show great faith, will sin and be forgiven instantly. 1 John 1:6ff shows that the blood of Christ continually cleanses the sins away of the person WALKING in the light. The cleansing is contingent upon walking and staying in the light. Among Christians, there is a sin that IS NOT unto death and there is a sin that IS unto death. The person who sins without remorse, without repentance in his heart, is committing sin unto death. The brother who sins, who hates the sin he commits, is forgiven and we should pray for such a one (1 John 5:16) |

98 | David F, please answer the questions | Heb 6:6 | disciplerami | 75752 | ||
Yes, salvation is a gift that is given with conditions. Confess Me before men and I'll confess you before the Father. Deny Me and... How does one lose salvation? Same as Israel, turn to the world, away from God, be faithless, be disobedient (Hebrews 3:18,19) You do not lose your salvation easily. See my note to David F. If someone loses their salvation, they can repent and return. Good day. |
