81 | Than i may know Him | Gen 1:1 | Cyclist | 46151 | ||
Hank, Praise the Lord for ever more! Praise Him for His excellence! Praise Him for His Greatness! Praise Him for His unconditional love for us! Praise the Lord! I will rejoice and be glad because the Lord provided salvation for us through Jesus Christ, His Son! I will praise the Lord all the day long! Just a note to say that I was conducting a search on the subject of eternity. Being the fool that I sometimes am, I've tried to imagine eternity in my fleshly mind and have been struggling with the fact that I simply cannot. What a fool I am in this. Your post on 6/16/01 helped me with this. Thank You! I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continualy be in my mouth! Cyclist |

82 | Where did Cains wife come from | Gen 1:1 | Cyclist | 61672 | ||
Assy, All glory and honor and praise be to God our Father, and to Jesus Christ who died for our sins! You are answering a question from April of 2002, and, the answer to the queation asked is actaully in the question itself. I noticed that there are postings on this subject that, to me, support the fact that Cain married one of his relatives. I don't see in the scriptures that you have given to support your answer where people were on the earth before Adam and Eve. Blessing in Christ Jesus, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

Assy, From the rising of the sun to it's setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised. Praise the name of the Lord! Here is scripture that, the way I read it, supports the fact that Adam was the very first man (human). 1 Cor 15:45 So also it is written, "The first MAN, Adam, BECAME A LIVING SOUL." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 20 1 Cor 15:47 The first man is from the earth, earthy; the second man is from heaven. Blessings! Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

Assy, Any reply or response to my last post? I'm not trying to challenge you at all. Nor am i looking for a fight or debate, just want to make sure that we agree on what is written in the Word of God. By the way, Welcome to the forum!

A few suggestions if I may, Use the "QUICK SEARCH" (upper right of the page) and the "QUESTION/NOTES ON VERSES and QUESTION/NOTES ON WHOLE BOOKS" (top of the page).

Hi Assy, I will praise the Lord for He is kind and merciful and loving! He alone is worthy of praise! I will praise my God for He created in me a new heart and forgave me of my sins! You write: "When I asked this question before, I was told to pray and asked God to reveal to me the answer. The answer I gave previously is what God revealed to me. So I challenge each of you, to pray and ask God to reveal the answer to you." I pray continually to my Father in heaven the day long, so, a challenge to pray is not necessary, but it is good advice and appreciated. 1 Thess 5:17 pray without ceasing; In January of this year I pray to the Lord my God for more knowledge of His Word and to fill me more with His spirit of wisdom. This forum was and is His answer to those prayers. I'm reposting what I posted to you yesterday (at the end of this post), sorry for the long post. Please keep in mind that there are those on this forum that may very well be, and as far as I am concerned, our elders. 1 Pet 5:5 You younger men, likewise, be subject to your elders; and all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, for GOD IS OPPOSED TO THE PROUD, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE. Repost: "By the way, Welcome to the forum! This is a GREAT place to study and learn about God's Word!

86 | The bible is a work of fiction - discuss | Gen 1:1 | Cyclist | 72348 | ||
Dear callmethewolfe All praise and glory and honor be to GOD our Father and to His Son Jesus Christ who died for our sins! Blessed be His name forever! Welcome to this BIBLE Study Forum! Please consider the following scripture. Notice that when Paul states "those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God", he doesn't add something like "unless............" Gal 5:19 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, Gal 5:20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, Gal 5:21 envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

87 | question to smoke pot or not | Gen 1:12 | Cyclist | 54807 | ||
Dear elders in Christ, and, new Christians, and, those of you that are visiting this forum and may not know Jesus Christ as savior, I must say that this thread about smoking pot brings tears to my eyes, not because of the content of the postings, but, because of the subject itself. Please allow me a little liberty here if you will. I am an ex-street gang member, pot smoker, acid user, crack user, and other drugs that I do not even remember. In addition I am an ex-drug dealer. Please, please, please do not take this matter of pot smoking lightly! I must apoligize because I have not read every posting in this thread, but, I have seen some commentary that says, and this is not the exact wording, that smoking pot is "OK", or, "With proper use is not a problem", and, "There are bad experiences and good experiences with smoking pot". It is with a sorrowful heart and tears that I share the following with you because the old man is dead forever, but, I am compelled to post this. I have seen, as well as experienced, both good and bad effects of pot. I have smoked it, eaten it, and made hashish from it. I've been to the hospital with people who have smoked it. I have witnessed brutal beatings of people as a result of pot smoking parties. Orgies are a result of pot smoking. I have seen, and it is with many tears that I write this my friends, little children go uncared for to the point of unchanged diapers for days, unfed, naked, left alone, and "high" from pot being smoked in the same room. When high, the children were disoriented, falling off of furniture at times because they could not sit upright, and not in there right mind. I'm sorry, I cannot go on friends, tears have turned to weeping. There is more though, more that I do not want to remember. Those of you that are Christians and desire to smoke pot please see the following from the KJV. I know what pot can do with the imagination. 2 Corinthians 10 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled. Thank you my Lord and my God and my Savior for loving me enough to pull out of that life! In the Love of Christ, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

89 | question to smoke pot or not | Gen 1:12 | Cyclist | 54873 | ||
Norrie, I will praise my God from the rising of the sun to it's setting! I will always be thankful Jesus who died for me and to my Heavenly Father because He loved me enough to pull me from that life! Blessed be His name forever more! I will pray for your brother, and, for you because I know how hard it is to see a member of your family with an addiction and physically abused. Just to share my experience with deliverance. You know, of course, I hope anyway, that I was delivered by Jesus, and, so were some others that I knew then, two I know of for sure. In fact, God used me in both cases. Thank you Father! There are, however, many of those that I was friends/aquainted with that were either never delivered (still doing it or dead)or simply replaced it with another addiction. By another addiction I mean, alcohol, excessive eating, gambling, working excessive hours, a hobby that takes alot of time away from family,etc...... Of course, these are better than the drug addiction, or are they? Only Jesus Christ can provide true deliverance. You know the scriptures Norrie. Here are just two that come to mind right away. John 4:14 but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him shall never thirst; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life." John 8:31 So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, "If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; John 8:32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free." Hope this helps Norrie. Please feel free to keep me updated. In Him, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

Norrie, I will rejoice in the Lord continually, for he has made me glad! I will rejoice in the Lord, for He loved me enough to continue to call me even when I rejected His calling! I will rejoice in the Lord always! My dear, dear sister, I am taking liberty here, on the forum, to share with you my salvation experience only because this thread is not appearing on the home page. Four things before I start; 1) This is my own experience with the Lord and it should not be assumed that the Lord will deal with anyone else in the same manner, 2) When reading this posting it should not be assumed that I am claiming to belong to or am promoting any particular denomination or doctrine, 3) To my understanding, and this is my opinion, it is important when posting to this forum that one needs to include a scripture reference(s), I may or may not in this posting, and, 4) Please bear with me. I have spent most all of my saved life in the KJV of the bible and my lanquage may reflect that, if need be, I apologize. This salvation of David, so I am called on earth, was like this. When I was a young man of 17 I was, as you know already, into drugs, alcohol (1/2 to 1 pint of vodka daily), heavy rock and roll music, and fornication. I was working in a factory driving a fork lift. Driving a forklift high on pot and drunk! I hit two people and was moved to driving the forklift in the warehouse (There was no pedestrian traffic there). God was so good and patient with me! Thank you so much Father! Jesus Christ began to call me. By the way, there was a woman that worked in that plant, who I consider my spiritual mother, that spoke to me of Jesus. Anyway, when driving alone in the warehouse I always had this feeling of someone, not something, but someone being there with me, no matter where I went. One night I had a dream of being chased in a city street by the police with flashlights. In the dream, I ran into a theater. In the center of the theater was a square opening so I jumped in to hide from the police. I found myself hanging on to a railing, and, there was no bottom! I was hanging on for life! There was just pitch black darness below me. I looked up, A light was being shined in my face. But wait! This was not the police! The light was so bright that it blinded me! What is this! The dream ended. Then, being a lover of music, a song came on the radio, it was in the top ten at that time, and, to me, and, probable me only, had a message from Jesus in it. Each time I heard the song I could here Jesus' voice in my heart. "What's happening to me!" I said to myself at that time. This someone would not leave me alone! Jesus is talking to me music I listen to, speaking to me all of the time when I'm awake, and, even in my dreams! I quit my job. But, my mother had been woking there at that time and talked with a man who I respected vey much, and, he talked with me so I came back to my job. I did move to a different department, not driving a forklift, where I would have to converse with people all of the time so I wouldn't have to deal with Jesus' voice. About 6 months or so after that, I can't remember right now, I met the woman who became my wife. She had two daughters from a previous marriage. I decided that it was time to settle down, after all I had children to take care of now. I became a supervisor in that same factory, and, sometimes to relieve stress I would take the country roads home. Guess who started calling me again when I was driving home alone, no other vehicles around. Jesus Christ called me into His life and I accepted on a beautiful country road. It was wonderful! I'm telling you the truth when I say that I had absolutly no desire for drugs, alcohol, sex, etc... from that point on. I LOVED everyone I met from that point on! My eyes were suddenly opened! Everything looked brighter! I couldn't wait to get up in the morning so that I could spend time learning more about Jesus! I couldn't wait to love someone! Well, that's it Norrie. Sorry for the long post. I love the Lord Jesus Christ so much! How could I not! How can I live any longer in sin! In the love of our Savior and Lord Jesus who thought not of Himself but died for the sins of the world, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

Jushafreak, Great is the LORD and greatly to be praised! I will Shout joyfully to the LORD! I will praise Him for His loving kindness! I will praise Him for His mercies! I will praise and uplift the LORD my GOD! Scriptural facts are what you were/are seeking on this subject. From your postings I am convinced that you know scripture, and, that you know how to search scripture. In fact, I am convinced that you know so much about scripture that you are probably capable of winning any debate or argument on this subject, and, maybe other subjects as well. Consider this, and, I will do my best to keep emotion out of it. If you read one my postings in this thread you know that I am an ex-user and an ex-drug dealer. The fact is this; pot has the similar "buzz" effect and altering of thoughts and imagination as alcohol. Just as alcohol leads to drunkeness, so does pot smoking. Having first hand experience with this I will not be convinced otherwise. It is with sorrow that I post the following scripture. Yes it is with emotion that I post it, none the less, it is scriptural fact, that is what you seek. 1 Cor 5:11 But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with any so-called brother if he is an immoral person, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler--not even to eat with such a one. Not that I am anyone. You do not know me nor I you. I am not an elder to this forum nor am I anyone in authority, just a Christian, but, if you continue in your drunkeness, your postings are not worthy of reading or response by me, but, again, I am nothing. I love you in Christ Jeshuafreak. Submitted in the boldness of the spirit of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, Blessed be His name forever, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

Josh, Where ever I am, I'll praise Him! When ever I can, I'll praise Him! For the LORD has been so good to me! I will praise the name of JESUS! I'll lift up the name of JESUS! Blessed be the name of the LORD our GOD now and forever more! Since this thread is not appearing on the home page, I would like to take time to pray with and for you and myself if I may. "Dear kind and righteous, wonderful, merciful, and loving Heavenly Father. We thank thee oh God for your Son Jesus Christ who thought not of Himself, but gave His life for our sins, and, for the sins of the world, blessed be His name forever. We thank you oh Lord for creating us in thy image. We thank you Lord for givings us a body to live in on this earth as it hath pleased thee. We thank you oh Lord for giving us the abilities that you have givien us. Thank you oh Lord for being merciful to us. We pray Father that you would bless us, my brother and I, with the strength of your Holy Spirit, to do thy will oh God, to please thee and not our flesh. We pray Father that you would impart your Holy Spirit to us Father so that we would not lean on our own understanding, but, follow thy leading through the Holy Spirit. We pray Father that you would instill and imbed your Holy Word in our heart and in our mind and in our soul so that every thought and imagination would be challenged and brought under the obedience of Jesus Christ, our Lord and our Savior. In the blessed name of your only begotten son, Jesus Christ, Amen. We love you Lord our God" Blessings to you Josh! My e-mail is dave@gowithats.com Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times!

94 | Why was Cain's offering not acceptable? | Gen 4:5 | Cyclist | 47050 | ||
Greetings ploon! Welcome to the forum! Most of all though, Welcome to the family of God! I am Cyclist. With my whole heart will I bless the Lord! Bless the Lord oh my soul and all that is within me! Bless His Holy Name! This is an excellent question. I've pondered this myself before as have many. I, however, could find no scriptural cross references for this verse. There are others on this forum that have done a lot more studying and searching than I have. Maybe they will provide a better answer. I've concluded the following: Obviously there was a long period of time between verses 2 and 3. At that time God talked directly to Adam and Eve. As you read the Bible further you will see that God instructed His people to offer up animal sacrifices to Him. I believe that God had instructed Adam and Eve and their children to bring to Him offerings of animals. I also believe that, since there was this period of time between vs 2 and 3, that Cain made offerings in accordance with God's commandments before this one. It may be that Cain thought that he could get one over on God. It may be that since Cain was a tiller of the ground that he would've had to hunt an animal for the offering and was being lazy. After all, the Word of God does say that Cain did sin. Sinning is disodeying God's commandments. Gen 4:1 - 7 are posted below. Hope this helps, only what I believe though. Please let me know if you find a better answer based on scripture. Your brother in Christ Jesus, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! Gen 4:1 Now the man had relations with his wife Eve, and she conceived and gave birth to Cain, and she said, "I have gotten a manchild with the help of the LORD." Gen 4:2 Again, she gave birth to his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of flocks, but Cain was a tiller of the ground. Gen 4:3 So it came about in the course of time that Cain brought an offering to the LORD of the fruit of the ground. Gen 4:4 Abel, on his part also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of their fat portions. And the LORD had regard for Abel and for his offering; Gen 4:5 but for Cain and for his offering He had no regard. So Cain became very angry and his countenance fell. Gen 4:6 Then the LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen? Gen 4:7 "If you do well, will not your countenance be lifted up? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door; and its desire is for you, but you must master it." |

95 | BongGritty, Heb 11:4? | Gen 4:5 | Cyclist | 47874 | ||
BongoGritty, The Lord is my rock and my salvation! In Him will I put my trust! I will praise Him in song and with a lively heart because He has blessed me with both! I will praise the God of my salvation! I have been kept very busy during the week so forgive me for the delayed response. You write "Your answer is in Heb 11:4." Your answer was to the original question "Why was Cain's offering not acceptable?" I did not see the answer in this scripture. My opinion only, and please accept it as that, for I am far from an "expert", is that Cain was disobedient, in otherwords, He did not offer to the Lord that which was commanded. I interpret this, again my opinion only, as Cain either being to lazy to dress an animal for offering, or, that his offering was motivated by pride, you know, something like, "Look at what I have done with my own hands. I will offer this to the Lord because I produced it myself and am proud of it." Are there any other scpriptures that give an answer to the original question? As always, I would accept and appreciate answers from anyone else on the forum as well, whether it be scripture referenced or interpretion. In Christ Jesus our Lord, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |

98 | prayon, would you please? | Gen 6:1 | Cyclist | 35491 | ||
Searcher56, Please forgive me. It seems as though my question may have appeared offensive in some way. Please understand that it was not meant to be that way. In the post by Makarios on 2/20 at 3:30 AM I recieved the scripture information that was needed for me to understand that angels cannot not reproduce with humans. Please bear with me as I attempt to explain why I even asked this question because it is important to me that the forum understand my intentions. I have been a "back woods" Christian for many years. In other words, I have had very limited access to such wonderful learning tools as the forum. It is important to me that I study and learn as much as possible about the Word of GOD so that when I share with with others I understand what I am sharing, whether it be salvation through Jesus Christ or events in the Old Testament. On this particular subject for example I have always told others, when they ask, that the sons of GOD were fallen angels. Apparently I have been wrong. This concerns me! I want to go to them and correct what I have told them! Since I cannot, I will pray that the right information is revealed to them. This is my purpose in the forum. If I seem imature in the knowledge of the Bible and in the wording of the questions or answers that I post, I am truely sorry. In addition, If my reason for involvement with the forum is a waste of the Saints' time then please direct me to a web sight that would provide teachings to me that are geared more toward my purpose. I do not want to waste anyone's time and especially do not want to offend any of GOD's wonderful children. From now on if I have questions regarding a subject that is posted I will do a search on it before posting a question, answering a question, or following up with a note. prayon, I hope that you read this note. I Love you in Christ Jesus. If I've offended you in any way please know that I am truely sorry. LOVE IN JESUS CHRIST, my LORD and SAVIOR, Cyclist |
