81 | Should women be teaching in churches? | 1 Tim 2:12 | 2ndSamuel22 | 47760 | ||
Greetings fellow believers!! One question I've had about this verse: Why does Paul personalize it? Why does he say,"I do not allow...", instead of,"do not allow?" There are instances in the epistles where Paul writes his opinion(I Cor.7:12--"But to the rest speak I, not the Lord..."), while the rest of the time he writes as if being commanded, and in my opinion, that is what he is doing here. The way I see it: 1) If no man can "show himself approved"(2Tim 2:15), but a woman can, do you think God would want her to hold her tongue, and not teach His Word? Did not GOD'S OWN PEOPLE(Israel) go up to Deborah to be judged? Did He not allow her to lead Barak into battle, since he would not go without her?(Judges ch.4 and 5) 2) If a MAN puts a woman in the position of pastor, can you truly say she "usurped" her authority? Look at it this way: If a female police officer pulls you over, would you question her authority?(I Peter 2:13) I realize a pastor and a deputy are two different professions, but think about it: they are both a form of authority, both positions created by God(Romans 13:1-2). So, if a presiding bishop appoints a woman to pastor, and since both offices are appointed by God, do we not then need to respect that decision? Any comments? I submit this respectfully, and as opinion, and not to create strife. 2nd Samuel 22:36-37 |

82 | Who'd Be In Charge? | Gen 24:5 | 2ndSamuel22 | 47574 | ||
Greetings Lionstrong! I misinterpreted your original question, and I apologize. According to John MacArthur and Matthew Henry, Isaac would be in charge. Elieazer was Abraham's steward, and would have been entitled to inherit his estate--were it not for the son, Isaac. Also, according to Mr. Henry, Eliezer was to act as a proxy for Isaac, in order to ensure that Isaac would not fall into the sins of the Canaanites. I hope I understood you this time, if not, hand me the mental floss..:-) 2nd Samuel 22:36-37 |

83 | Romans 10:9: is it too simple? | Rom 10:9 | 2ndSamuel22 | 47255 | ||
Hosanna in the highest!! Simplicity--that is exactly what Jesus preached. All the times He rebuked the Pharisees, He was speaking directly at the complexity(ies) which they had added to the scriptures. That is what He meant when He said in Mark 10:15, " Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein." In other words, salvation is so simple, even a child could understand it. And we should accept our salvation with the simple love of a child. Another verse which speaks to this is 2 Cor. 11:3--"But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the SIMPLICITY that is in Christ."[emphasis mine] Compare our means of salvation to the many sacrifices the Jews had to offer in the old testament.

84 | Where does Jesus say He is God? | Bible general Archive 1 | 2ndSamuel22 | 46219 | ||
Also, the apostle Paul wrote in Col. 2:9,"For in HIM(Christ) dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily." | ||||||
85 | Cain and Seth's wives descended from who | Genesis | 2ndSamuel22 | 45306 | ||
Dear Sctt, Not to argue a point, but, when I've read that when Abram told Pharaoh that Sarai was his "sister"(even though she was his wife), he was not exactly lying. I have read that Sarai was actually his half-sister. And God used Abram(Abraham) as the progenitor of His people. Again, not arguing. |

86 | Help. Someone's testamony has me upset | Bible general Archive 1 | 2ndSamuel22 | 45302 | ||
Chynna, Do not let your faith be shaken. You say that you "started questioning whether I wanted God to be behind the things that happened and therefore just believed it to be so." Trust me, God IS behind every good thing you do, and that happens to you(James 1:17). Also, never forget to thank Him for all the blessings you DON'T see, like the times He keeps you from danger that you didn't know was there. I pray that you will continue to always love and trust our Heavenly Father, in whose hand is found eternal rest(Psalm 23:2). |

87 | Who are these? | Rev 13:6 | 2ndSamuel22 | 45297 | ||
Mommapbs, I believe Antichrist will blaspheme the physical tabernacle, as well as heven itself. One prediction says that he will enter the Holy of Holies in the rebuilt Solomon's temple, thus blaspheming it. When you refer to my screen name, do you mean my internet screen name? If so, it refers to the four heavenly beasts who "never rest, crying 'Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come.'" So many people focus on the judgment aspect of Revelations, when it paints such a beautiful picture of heaven. God Bless |

88 | Mark 3:5 verus Matthew 5:22 | Mark 3:5 | 2ndSamuel22 | 43141 | ||
"After looking around at them with anger..." Compare this with Matt 5:22, "But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court;..." Doesn't this then make Jesus a sinner? Why does Matt 5:22(NASB) leave out the phrase, "[angry] WITHOUT CAUSE"?(see KJV) | ||||||
