81 | Torah observance in the church?? | Prov 28:9 | ebrain | 161977 | ||
Keeping the Torah is usually understood to mean keeping the law, however, Romans 10:4, tells us that "Christ is the end of the law for righteousness". This in my opinion does not refer to the moral law, but only to the ceremonial law, see also Romans 2:15, 4:13, 4:16, and 8:3. For example, circumcision is no longer required, but, one man with one woman to the exclusion of all others untill death, is still required. You might find it helpfull to read Matt Ch's 5, 6, and 7, where our Lord says at Matt 5:17.(Amplified) that He did not come to abolish the law, but to fulfill it, or more precisely to be the fulfillment of it. |

82 | Yes, I agree. Here's what I understand: | Prov 28:9 | ebrain | 162043 | ||
Thank you Eliyahu for your post, and for your invitation to give my opinion. Without question the biggest single problem that the Church has is an abysmal lack of good quality in depth Bible teaching, the second problem is, if anything even worse, as the majority of Christians are not even aware of this. Fortunatly thank God, there is as allways that small number, that little remnant who do hunger, and thirst after right teaching. I only have the use of one hand, and am a rather slow single finger typist, if you would be kind enough to let me have your e-mail address, then I will be only to happy to forward to you material in connection with your request. May the Lord bless you, and keep you safe. Edwin Brain. pabrain@indent.co.uk |

85 | IS ANIMAL BREATH ETERNAL | Eccl 3:21 | ebrain | 183360 | ||
As far as I am aware, we are not told that God breathed life into animals, my understanding is that man is unique in this respect, Please refer to the Scripture verses bellow. Gen 1:24 Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind"; and it was so. Gen 1:25 And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. Gen 1:26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all* the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being. 1Th 5:23 Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Luk 1:46 And Mary said: "My soul magnifies the Lord, Luk 1:47 And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior. Hbr 4:12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Of all the many, and varied life forms God made, man is unique, as we are tripartite, that is to say having three parts, i.e. spirit, soul, and body. The spirit part of us we often refer to as "the human spirit", and animals do not have the equivalent of this. The human spirit was breathed into the nostrils of Adam, thus enabling intimate communion between God and man. Refer now to, Gen 2:17 "but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die." The words "eat of it you shall surely die", is an incorrect translation, and should read, "eat of it dying you shall die", that is to say two deaths, firstly instantaneous and immediate termination of the human spirit, followed in due course by psychical death. This is clearly seen to be the case at 1Cr 2:14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. Man has to have restored to him what was lost in Adam, and that is Divine regereration, or if you like new birth. I hope that rather long explanation has been of help to you. ebrain. |

86 | alma in the Biblica Hebraica | Is 7:14 | ebrain | 183912 | ||
The word "Almah", appears seven times in Scripture, as bellow. It is clear from the other six, that a "virgin", is under consideration, why then is there a problem with the seventh? Gen 24:43 'behold, I stand by the well of water; and it shall come to pass that when the virgin comes out to draw water, and I say to her, "Please give me a little water from your pitcher to drink," Exd 2:8 And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Go." So the maiden went and called the child's mother. Psa 68:25 The singers went before, the players on instruments followed after, Among them were the maidens playing timbrels. Pro 30:19 The way of an eagle in the air, The way of a serpent on a rock, The way of a ship in the midst of the sea, And the way of a man with a virgin. Sgs 1:3 Because of the fragrance of your good ointments, Your name is ointment poured forth; Therefore the virgins love you. Sgs 6:8 There are sixty queens And eighty concubines, And virgins without number. Isa 7:14 "Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel.* "Almah" strongs No 5959 (Al-maw) feminine of No 5958. a lass (as vailed or private) KJV (damsel, maid, virgin) |

87 | Who died for his faithfulness? | Is 53:12 | ebrain | 184771 | ||
You ask, Who died for his faithfulness? Well Jesus of course, if anyone was faithful, He was, and look what happened to Him. Isa 53:12 Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great, And He shall divide the spoil with the strong, Because He poured out His soul unto death, And He was numbered with the transgressors, And He bore the sin of many, And made intercession for the transgressors. |

89 | leader vs king of Tyre | Ezek 28:12 | ebrain | 164903 | ||
King of Tyre refers to Satan, whereas Leader, or Prince of Tyre as it is translated in other versions, refers to a man who might indeed have been from a human point of view King of Tyre, but as Satan is far far more powerfull than a mere human King, this man is for the purpose of this passage of Scripture reduced to a mere Prince as a comparison has to be made between him, and Satan. Therefore to sum up, verses 1-10, refers to a man, whereas verses 11-19, refers to Satan. |

Most Bible scholars would say that the Scripture passages given bellow refer to Satan, note that verse 13 of Eze 28, says on the day you were created, thereby indicating that it was God who created Satan Isa 14:12 "How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer,* son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations! Isa 14:13 For you have said in your heart: 'I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation On the farthest sides of the north; Isa 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.' Isa 14:15 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, To the lowest depths of the Pit. Isa 14:16 "Those who see you will gaze at you, And consider you, saying: 'Is this the man who made the earth tremble, Who shook kingdoms, Isa 14:17 Who made the world as a wilderness And destroyed its cities, Who did not open the house of his prisoners?' Isa 14:18 "All the kings of the nations, All of them, sleep in glory, Everyone in his own house; Isa 14:19 But you are cast out of your grave Like an abominable branch, Like the garment of those who are slain, Thrust through with a sword, Who go down to the stones of the pit, Like a corpse trodden underfoot. Isa 14:20 You will not be joined with them in burial, Because you have destroyed your land And slain your people. The brood of evildoers shall never be named. Isa 14:21 Prepare slaughter for his children Because of the iniquity of their fathers, Lest they rise up and possess the land, And fill the face of the world with cities." Eze 28:12 "Son of man, take up a lamentation for the king of Tyre, and say to him, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "You were the seal of perfection, Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. Eze 28:13 You were in Eden, the garden of God; Every precious stone was your covering:The sardius, topaz, and diamond, Beryl, onyx, and jasper, Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold. The workmanship of your timbrels and pipes Was prepared for you on the day you were created |

92 | How did they know it was a prophesy? | Hos 11:1 | ebrain | 167489 | ||
All Scripture is given by the inspiration of God, therefore Matthew wrote down what the Holy Spirit told him to write. This also shows that Bible verses can have more than one application, but remember that it is the Holy Spirit who gives the interpretation to the reader/listener. |

We are told to "love our enemies". Ask to be shown a similar verse in their book. Only if our Lord is doing a work in their hearts is there any possibility of your being able to help them. Read Eph 6:12,and 1st Cor 2:14, you carn't, He can, read also Luke 24:45, if He does not open their minds, there is nothing that you can do about it. I am sorry if I sound negative, but these are the facts, we are involved in the supernatural, to find out it is done, read John 15:5,and John 5:30, learn how He did it, and you will find out how you can do it. |

The persons refereed to at this verse, and the next, are not born again Christians. Please read both verses, and then read my comments which follow. Mat 7:22 "Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' Mat 7:23 "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!' Firstly, no real genuine article born again Christian would dream of boasting of what they have done when they meet the Lord Jesus. Secondly Jesus said, "I never knew you", which means that He never entered into their body in the person of His other self, the Holy Spirit, therefore, this person was never a believer, despite what he says. Note, be very careful, just because a person has done many wonders in His name, that does not mean that he is the real thing, remember the Devil can appear like an angel of light. 2Cr 11:13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. 2Cr 11:14 And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. 2Cr 11:15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works. Jesus is using the expression "knew you", in the Biblical sense, see Gen 4:1 NOW Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, and said, "I have acquired a man from the LORD." See also, Eph 1:13 In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, Eph 1:14 who* is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory. I hope that this is of help to you. ebrain |

You asked. "How can one be certain they are a genuine believer and thus certain that they are in possession of eternal security?" Mat 7:16 "You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? Mat 7:20 "Therefore by their fruits you will know them. Rom 8:16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, Hope this helps. ebrain. |

It is addressed to all christians, who are finding living the christian life very hard indeed. Paul himself had problems see Romans Ch 7 v 14 to Ch 8 v 8. As Jesus said "Without me you can do nothing" John 15:5. |
