82 | Numbers 25 | Not Specified | Aliennow | 159089 | ||
I think it's in Numbers 25 where the Israelites have engaged in practices forbidden them and God states how to get things back on track, including some deaths and punishments. But the leadership doesn't follow through fully. And God (I'm sorry, G_d) sends them a persuasive rash or something. Their miserable but won't change. They keep sinning up a storm,like most of us would. Then this one fella takes matters into his own hand and kills two obvious offenders right in front of everybody. And G_d not only doesn't get ticked at him for sticking a spear through the chief's son and the chief's son's girlfriend, but instead rewards the guy and his lineage forever with certain blessings because he made it happen,what G_d told the chiefs to do. Okay, so, it wouldn't have been rewarded for somebody to get up and just start killing somebody for no good reason. But punishment on G_d's terms WAS alright, and then some. Does it make sense in any way to use something like Numbers 25 as an example to try to explain the idea that we as individuals, as citizens must act one way toward one another that is, lawfully, and not engage in law breaking, like murder for instance, but our governing establishments, like police or the justice system, have the right and duty to uphold safety and uphold rules and regulations whereby if someone willfully breaks them, like goes out and murders somebody then the justice system, the governing establishment, has the right to punish them and if it's the death penalty it's killing but not murder? Do you know what I mean? |

84 | Explain verses 9-18 Exodus chapter 24. | Exodus | Aliennow | 159058 | ||
In my interpretation this is when Moses went Mount Sanai to receive the 10 commandments. Other then that I know much more of what you are looking for. | ||||||
85 | Prophecy of Christ or Not? | Not Specified | Aliennow | 159056 | ||
Genesis 12:3 "I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you." When God called him, Abraham moved out in faith from Ur to Haran and finally to Canaan. God then established His covenant with him. He would found a great Nation that would be blessed, but other Nations will also be blessed through His descendants. Israel is the Nation that came from Abraham and through his family tree Christ was born to save humanity. Could you be specific and show me how you can read Jesus into the short text of Genesis 12:3. I would appreciate the explanation. Is Genensis 12:3 a direct reference to Israel or does it have some prophecy about Jesus? |

87 | Correct Interpretation | James | Aliennow | 159001 | ||
I know of no one who has committed adultery personally. I just want to make sure that I am interpreting this passage correctly. It seems odd that a person can commit adultery, be given a certificate of divorce, and then be free to do it all over again. | ||||||
88 | 20 years of wrong ? | 1 John 1:9 | Aliennow | 159000 | ||
My case actually goes back 40 years. Just because we give our lives to Christ and repent of our sins does not mean that we will not sin again. We are always in a constant battle with the flesh(sin) and the spirit (good). Once we repent we need to ask for descernment to be led away from the temptations of the flesh. | ||||||
89 | gods purpose for nonbelievers | 1 Corinthians | Aliennow | 158970 | ||
We are all created by God and in His image with a purpose for living. To read about Spiritual gifts go to 1 Corinthians chapter 17. 1 Corinthians 17: 1- 3 "Now about spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant. You know that when you were pagans, somehow or other you were influenced and led astray to mute idols. Therefore I tell you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit." May I ask why you consider yourself a non-believer? |

90 | Was King David almost slain by a giant? | 1 Sam 17:49 | Aliennow | 158968 | ||
False Go to 1 Samuel chapter 17 to read the whole story. When King David was a boy he slayed Goliath who was considered a giant because of his stature. Later in life he became a King. |

91 | Covenant Marriage | Not Specified | Aliennow | 158959 | ||
I have always wondered about the covenant marriage and if there is ever a time that you can divorce especially if one in the marriage commits adultery? What God brings together let no man separate. Matthew 5:31"It has been said, 'Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.'[a] 32But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, causes her to become an adulteress, and anyone who marries the divorced woman commits adultery." |
