Prov 6:16-19 These six things doth the Lord hate: yea seven are an abomination to him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, a false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth...

When St. John 3:16 is read most people assume that the word world means everyone and excludes no one. One needs to keep in mind Christ was speaking to a Jew and the Jews were predudice against the gentiles. The Jews believed no nation except they, had any rights or benifits from God but them...

Heb 12:6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son he recieveth. In this verse the Lord loveth only those he chasteneth, and in verse eight the Lord don't chastise everyone. Chastisement is a mark of sonship that is applied only to those he loves. In chapter eleven of John...

I sometimes wonder when we use a phrase describing an event, if the way we say it brings glory to God or confussion to the listener. One phrase comes to mind when used in a sentence, I got saved. Correct me if i'm wrong but wouldn't it sound better if one said, the Lord saved me. You may say...

Could it be Luke you are just missing your day's of running with the bad boys and and a rough crowd ? Sounds to me like your heart is already back with them. You know what the scripture say's about a man that put's his hands to the plow and looketh back. You cannot approach all men with a bull...

Thanks John.

Yes Greek, thank you. Now which of the four applies to St. John 3:16

Someone please tell me the four distinct meanings of love in Hebrew, i would be much abliged.

I guess the point i was trying to make, for example, If i walked up to a stanger to witness to him or her and i said, If God don't have mercy on you, you will go to hell. Even though i told them the truth and maybe later on after they had called the cops on me, they might think it over but...

If i believed God loves everyone in the world then his love has little or no value to me. If i believed God loves everyone, my mind would not be drawn to God's love because there are millions in hell that God loves. If i told my wife i love her but i also told my wife i love every woman in the...

There is a old saying, i don't care what you know, untill i know you care. Math 12: 20 A bruised reed shall he not break, and a smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgement unto victory.

Imo as Jesus was growing up and by him being perfect and without sin he had a natural inclination toward the things of God. I also think sometime in his youth God spoke to him straight out of heaven when he was alone as he did on the occasion when God said, this is my beloved son, hear ye him.

There are three possible answers to why Billy Graham changed his stand. (1) He woke up one morning and realized by saying people in countries that have never heard of Christ will go to hell was not consistant with Arminian doctrine, so he changed his mind. (2) His Altimers disease was effecting...

As i get older i often wonder before i die which will start going first, my mind or my body. If my mind goes first i pray the Lord he would keep me from saying something like Billy Graham did, which he wouldn't have said in his youth.

Christ told Peter, i have prayed for thee that thou faith failest not. In John 17: 20 Neither i pray for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word. When Christ who is at the right hand of God as my intercessor, i don't need anyone else as a intercessor.

Aaron has a point. I can believe Christ is the answer and someone else can say the same thing but if we have a discussion about Christ and we differ on what Christ accomplished for us, then his Christ would not be my answer.

Some peoples mind set is this, If the church house burns down, the devil did it. If the beer joint burns down, God did it.

God uses scripture to convict the conscience when the holy Ghost applies it to a heart. Isa 55:11 So shall My word be that goeth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void but it shall accomplish that which i please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto i send it.

11 Cor 12: And lest i should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messanger of Satan to buffet me, lest i should be exalted above nature. Satan tempts us through our flesh, through lost people and some times by evil...

a lot of churches in my area has gone over board putting up what they call tid bits to make people think as they drive by. One church close to me has one out now that say's, if your not satisfied with your first birth, try the second birth. Imo if they would just put up scripture it would...
