901 | Will there be Muslims in heaven? | John 14:6 | Mommapbs | 22709 | ||
Romans 1 declares that the righteous man will live by faith. Who then is righteous? Anyone who God imputes His righteousness to. See Romans 4. James 2:23 and Romans 3: 21-23 says:"But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify.This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference,for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Just because the Muslim believes in Allah, he is not excused for his rejection of Jesus. Allah is not Jehovah God.I believe there is a desperate need for body of Christ to KNOW THIS fact! See I John 4. The Muslim does not believe that Jesus is God's Son. According to I John 4:3, this is the spirit of the antichrist: "but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world." Also, to the Muslim, Jesus is no more than a prophet like Mohammed. And since Mohammed appeared later on the scene than Jesus, they believe that Mohammed supercedes the authority of Christ! I think you will agree that this is so contrary to what Jesus has delared in Matthew 28:18 - "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me." Why make a distinction between non-believers? All Muslims, Hindus, atheists, etc. will have to give an account of what has been revealed to them by Jehovah God within their hearts as well as within the visible creation. See Romans 1:17-21! |

902 | Was Jesus a homeowner? | Bible general Archive 1 | Mommapbs | 22561 | ||
No, on earth Jesus did not own a home. Matthew 8:20 - Jesus replied, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head." Recall that the devil tempted Jesus in this manner - offering Him the entire world,in exchange for His worship! This was entirely within his right to offer the Lord, because until the return of Christ, the earth is ruled by the "prince of this world." Since Jesus real home was in Heaven, the earth held no attraction for Him. This is an intriguing question. Would you build a mansion in a landfill when you had a home that was beyond compare elsewhere? The only attraction on this earth for the Lord was its inhabitants - US! See John 14:1-6. Thank you Lord for leaving your Heavenly home and coming to rescue us from this cesspool! |

903 | New prophecies in the New Testament? | Bible general Archive 1 | Mommapbs | 22558 | ||
Without doing any research, my initial reaction to your question is: in general, the Old and New Testament address prophecy in the same sense. There may be elaborations on the prophecy but just because God's Word is divided into Old and New doesn't mean that there are necessarily and new prophecies. Isn't it wonderful to live in an age where we can see prophecy fulfilled? It is such an encouragement to know that what WAS written in the past serves to guide us in what WILL be! | ||||||
904 | DOES GOD HEAR PRAYRS OF UNBELIEVING JEW | Prov 15:29 | Mommapbs | 22065 | ||
The issue to consider is WHO is righteous? Proverbs 15:29 The LORD is far from the wicked but he hears the prayer of the righteous. 1 Peter 3:12 "For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer, but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil." Please read Romans 3:9-31. Paul is very clear about the righteousness that comes from God through faith in Jesus Christ. Romans 10:12-13 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him,for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." See also Galatians 2:16-21. |

905 | The River of No Return part 2 | Eph 4:1 | Mommapbs | 21834 | ||
First of all, Jesus prayed in John 17 that we, the church, would be one as He and the Father were one. Ephesians 4 also commands us to be unified as one body. All parts are necessary and need to work together if the unity that Jesus prayed for is to be realized. The visual response I have in answer to your question is from an old Tarzan movie where the natives tied a man to a pair of crossed palm trees that were pulled down to the ground and secured with ropes. WHen the ropes were cut, the trees flew up and apart as did the body of the man. Disputes and disharmony within the church is likened to this kind of torture. We are Christ's body and we are tearing it apart by our squabbling and lack of love for one another! (And the devil leaps for joy when we behave this way.) | ||||||
