81 | It isn't right to eat pig is it? | 1 Tim 4:4 | wordoer | 103793 | ||
Hello Sissy, You are correct, It is not right to eat pig, I prefer to use the Biblical terminology “swines flesh” I would say they think they know something you don't, But you seem wiser than they, because you believe what you read from God's word, It reads very plainly in Lev. 11, and Deut.14, doesn't it? You would do well to not eat unclean animals. It is in the Law of God. If you do a little study into these filthy, detestable beasts, you will find out that they are a walking garbage disposal that God created to clean up the earth of dead and rotting flesh, among other filth and garbage, and not created to be consumed as food, (therefore their purpose is good, although not as food). They also carry a parasite know as trichinosis, which can if ingested, cause much damage to your body, I wouldn’t even want to take a chance on getting any of that. Here is a scripture I like to point out, Ezek 22:26 "Her priests have done violence to My law and have profaned My holy things; they have made no distinction between the holy and the profane, and they have not taught the difference between the unclean and the clean; and they hide their eyes from My sabbaths, and I am profaned among them..." Violence is done to the Law, by stating it is no longer valid, and is it not amazing that there is nothing new under the sun, the priests continue to neglect teaching the difference between the clean and the unclean. Jesus said in Matt 5:17, "Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. Don't even think He came to abolish the law! I would have to agree with EdB on one thing and that is that Paul answers the question for me as well, I really like the scripture this post is listed under, this is one that many use to give hearty approval to eating unclean animals, when in fact it says exactly the opposite. In 1Tim. 4:5 , Paul states that it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer, “sanctified” means, “set apart”, Please also note in verse 3 he is speaking of “foods”, It doesn’t take to much study to find out what has been set apart for food ( to be received) and what has been set apart as not for food ( to be abhorred) in God’s word. Understanding it in this manner does no violence to God's Word, it is in harmony with the Old Testament. Another warning is found in Is 66:17"Those who sanctify and purify themselves to go to the gardens, Following one in the center, Who eat swine's flesh, detestable things and mice, Will come to an end altogether," declares the LORD. There are a lot of sick people in the world that have been eating things that they should not have been eating. This may be why some have chosen to eat unclean animals in moderation, rather than believing God's Word and obeying the Law. God offers life, health and a blessing for keeping His Word, and death and a curse for turning away our ears from His Law. Ex 23:2 "You shall not follow the masses in doing evil, nor shall you testify in a dispute so as to turn aside after a multitude in order to pervert justice;..." I hope this helps you in your understanding, wordoer |

82 | Covenant Marriage | James | wordoer | 159075 | ||
Hello Aliennow, Yes, there is a time when divorce is permitted, Matt 19:8 He *said to them, "Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way. Or this was not the intention from the beginning. Please type in the number 39220, in the upper right hand search box on this site, the threaded posts there should help your understanding on this verse in Matthew 5:31. It really is a confusing translation of scripture, as it seems redundant to say, "if you divorce your wife you must give her a certificate of divorce". The certificate is one of the components of the divorce, and without the certificate you could not possibly be divorced. wordoer |

83 | Parkinson disease and healing | James 5:14 | wordoer | 72797 | ||
They should follow the instructions in James 5:14-16, which is for today and it works, If you can find a man with faith that believes it. I have also heard a testimony on glycostory.com, just type in "parkinson" and follow instuctions to recieve the link, to listen to the story. The man seems to have been healed, or at least has great relief of the symptoms. I hope the information may be of help to you. You stated that the people you talked to, had known others who were healed of their dis-eases. I was wondering what diseases and how were they healed ? If you know, and it is appropriate for this forum. wordoer |

84 | is this gentiles? | 1 Pet 2:9 | wordoer | 225068 | ||
The word "gentile", simply means, "nations". It helps to understand that God divored Israel, but He did not divorce Judah. Jer 3:8 "And I saw that for all the adulteries of faithless Israel, I had sent her away and given her a writ of divorce, yet her treacherous sister Judah did not fear; but she went and was a harlot also. He divorced and sent Israel out of their nation, they were lost in time through changes in their names down through history, and became a multitude of nations ( Just as God had promised Abraham in Gen. 17), they passed through the Caucaus Mountains into the Southern part of Russia, before migrating west. But, before they had gotten that far they were in Pontias, Galatia, Capadocia, and Bethania. That is where Peter, James, and others were writing to those Chosen People check out the first verses of those letters.( they (Israel) had been rejected, read Hosea 1:4, and then verse 10, it should start to become clear!). Wow, There it is in a nut shell, so much more to tell, not enough room, or time. This is the thing Jesus spoke of - I have sheep that are not of this flock, therefore the jews counceled among themselves, He is not intending to go among the gentiles and teach them also, is he? He came to seek and save that which was lost, What was lost? Israel. wordoer |

85 | Passage may say some born cannot be save | 2 Pet 2:9 | wordoer | 200584 | ||
Hello granny4jesus, He was most likely speaking of the vessels of wrath reserved for destruction, as written in Rom 9:22. Ps 58:3 The wicked are estranged from the womb; These who speak lies go astray from birth. Jude 1:4, also 10-16 Rom 3:13 "THEIR THROAT IS AN OPEN GRAVE, WITH THEIR TONGUES THEY KEEP DECEIVING," "THE POISON OF ASPS IS UNDER THEIR LIPS"; or Psalm chapter 5, may it be so. These are some verses that come to mind. Please let me know if any of these are it. There are definitely more scriptures that teach what your "member" was speaking of. Praise be to His Holy name, Jesus. wordoer |

86 | What would change End-Times? | 2 Pet 3:12 | wordoer | 156241 | ||
Hello pejo, It won't change the outcome, because I've read the Book and we (Christians) win. I do believe that the timing would change, as it says in 2 Peter 3:12 "looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God,..." This scripture shows the timing can be changed. We have the capacity to do this thing, maybe we could try it sometime. But, I'm so busy (Burdened Under Satans Yoke) though like everyone else, with work and all (having to gather my own straw to make bricks). Where would we ever find the time to do such a thing as a nation? wordoer |

Hello sunburst492, He said in Genesis 1:14, that the lights in the expanse of the heavens would be for signs and for seasons. I am not aware of any scripture indicating planetary alignment with the anti-Christ's birth. But, the anti-Christ has already been born, and they (yes, plural) continue to be born. 1 John 2:18,22,and 4:3, also 2 John 1:7 wordoer |

Hello hooper, When I first read your question ,I thought of one I heard out of out of Proverbs,in the King James version ,I heard it a long time ago, couldn't find that one (directly related, different wording), but I found this one in the NASB. John 15:13 "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends. wordoer |
