881 | "the two" and "one new man" refer to? | Eph 2:15 | azurelaw | 216187 | ||
Does "the two" here refer to "both groups (the Jews and gentiles)" in v14? If so, what does "into one NEW MAN" mean? Does it refer to the true church (the body of Christ)? Thanks for your help. Shalom Azure |

Dear John, Doc and Searcher, Thank you all for confirming my understanding :-) My uncertainty (and confusion) could be caused by the slight difference of "the two" and the related verses translated in my Chinese Bible. Shalom Azure |

Dear MWL (if you are still there), I truly hope that you understand what I intended to guide you. Sometimes, it is not about getting a direct/straight forward answer to your question or not, it is the question itself already problematic or it reveals the false concept behind the question such as this. Here is how I view your question: - it is not possible to truly know someone on the internet, needless to say determining if he/she is demon possessed. - what does the Bible teach about defending our faith? (read 1 Peter 3:15 and study the scripture in its context) - evangelism is to proclaim the Gospel, the Truth. We are only the sowers, but the Holy Spirit is the one who convicts and changes people's heart (read Jesus's parables of the sower). - when it comes to willful person rejects the truth, see what Jesus teaches in Mat 7:6. - does it matter in evangelizing that we should determine whether the person is demon possessed or not? (John 10:4, please read the whole chapter in its context) Let me ask you, while interacting with atheists on the internet, have you considered the above scriptures? OR, while you are quoting scriptures, have you studied them according to its context for proper understanding and application? How much or how well you have equiped yourself with the Word before engaging yourself in the debate? That is why I quote you Eph 6:11-17. May you be blessed with God's gracious Truth. Shalom Azure |

891 | Spiritual Warfare | Eph 6:18 | azurelaw | 223148 | ||
"Prayer brings us to the throne of grace for Christ’s resources against our spiritual enemy. Through it God grants us wisdom to discern, strength to stand firm, protection from spiritual harm, and grace to press on. Prayer as a weapon of spiritual warfare seeks the face of our Lord against an enemy that is strong, crafty, subtle, resourceful, and relentless. Such prayer is wielded in faith — faith that knows, trusts, relies on, and serves God. God has not left us alone to face the foe but has enfolded us into the company of His people where we find community in Spirit and camaraderie in mission. We need the fellowship of the brethren to watch our backs, to encourage us in battle, and to urge one another on to abide in Christ lest we grow weary and lose heart. " "Spiritual warfare is not something extraordinary, but ordinary to life in a fallen world and much deserving of study. It is conducted in weakness that seeks God’s strength, in wisdom that applies God’s truth, and in obedience that serves God’s kingdom. Through it, the Spirit matures us in Christ and advances Christ’s cause in this world." -- Stanley Gale |

Dear Tiffy, Thank you for your clarification. What a blessing it is to have a companion studying the bible together. Hope both you and ASMITH enjoy the forum. Psalm 133 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brothers to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious oil upon the head, Coming down upon the beard, Even Aaron's beard, It is like the dew of Hermon Coming down upon the mountains of Zion; For there the LORD commanded the blessing--life forever. Shalom Azure |

896 | How Big is God? | Phil 4:19 | azurelaw | 207998 | ||
Dear Brother Tim, Let me echo with you two testimonies (just a few of the many) recorded in the book "Queen of the Dark Chamber":- It was the 2nd Word War when the Japanese army took over Nanjing. The soldier spared no young women for their lustful desire whomever they found. In a village, old Mrs. Wong and her family were living in the 2nd house in a row of 3. One day, a Japanese soldier got to the village in search of his target. Those young women were hiding and leaving those senior praying outside. The Japanese soldier finished his search in the 1st house and was on his way approaching the 2nd one where the women were, there, jumped out a barking dog against him; thus distracted his search and he went straight to the 3rd house. Another old woman, Mrs. Chan, did not have money for her family to escape from Nanjing; thus were forced to stay where they were. Sadly that several Japanese got to their house and killed all the men leaving the old women. The women were too frightened that they jumped into a well for ending their lives. While they were struggling under the well, someone approached the opening and lowered down a rope to safe them. The one who saved them was a Japanese soldier - a christian. **** God is at all sovereign. My heart sank when I saw walkforchrist's note that if his lying could save thousand, he would lie despite it is sin. Oh my! Our effort is nothing if it is not God at work. Shalom Azure |

Dear Jalek, Thank you for sharing. Your testimony is a blessing to many readers of the forum, I believe. I also appreciate very much that while being enlightened and touched by a verse, you also do not neglect the context, theology of the passage as well. May the Lord keep you and bless you that your faith grows in His hand. Shalom Azure |

898 | how do i get control of my will? | Colossians | azurelaw | 207763 | ||
Dear Don, I think your response to Walkforchrist has been wrongly directed to me. In order to secure your intended reader's (i.e. walkforchrist) getting your post, perhaps you may repost your reply to him/her again since the user is a new registrant to SBF and I am not sure he/she will read your reply displayed on the main page. Shalom Azure |
