    Bible Study Hebrew Names Connected to Jehovah

    Malachi what a nice idea for a post. I feel sorry for you that it has been derailed. Why don't we read what Malachi asked us to do in this thread. There is much profit in studying the Hebrew names connected to Jehovah, what they mean, and how they applied to the individuals bearing those...

    Bible Study Two Covenants: The Old and New

    Matt 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Jesus was quoting from Psalm 37. All of chapter 37 gives us more insight into what Jesus was saying at Matthew 5:5. Notice verse 9 refers to a time when the wicked will be gone from the earth. For most of mankind’s history there...

    Bible Study Hebrew Names Connected to Jehovah

    Here is just a small list. There are tons of them. Hallelujah is also derived from God's name it means praise Jah. (Jesus) [Lat. form of the Gr. I·e·sousʹ, which corresponds to the Heb. Ye·shuʹaʽ or Yehoh·shuʹaʽ and means “Jehovah Is Salvation”]. (Abijah) [My Father Is Jehovah]. (Adonijah)...

    You just said that Jesus is the name of the Son of God, so what is the name of God the Father?

    Bible Study Acts 21:25

    Hi I just wanted to add that the prohibition against consuming blood predates the law covenant given to Moses. This is not something that only applied to those under the law. Right after the global flood, when God first granted humans the right to eat animal flesh, he commanded Noah and his...

    Bible Study Acts 21:25

    I agree that we are not under the law. Jesus did away with the law. We have no dietary restrictions. Blood is not food. This is a different matter. Please read all of Acts chapter 15. Some Jewish Christians were having a hard time letting go of the law. They thought that Gentiles that became...

    Bible Study Predestination

    I agree with Deborah that Romans 8:28,29 is talking about a group of people not individuals. 2 Peter 1:10 says: “Do your utmost to make the calling and choosing of you sure for yourselves; for if you keep on doing these things you will by no means ever fail.” (If the individuals were...

    Bible Study Need help with Matthew 16:28

    Do you believe that the current nation of Israel and the Jews living there today have a part to play in the unfolding of God's purpose? You said " The nation of Israel and it's rightful heir are put off till some other time." Are you talking about Jesus taking on his role of King of God's...

    I need help answering questions from an athiest

    Notice that 2Kings 2:11 doesn't say that Elijah died and went to heaven. Elijah was caught up in a windstorm. God must have transported Elijah through the atmosphere to another place on the earth. Elijah was spoken of in the bible at a later time. So he was alive and living somewhere else. 2...

    Bible Study Need help with Matthew 16:28

    Brother Mike I wanted to know if you thought that there are people who are thousands of years old. I made it clear that I meant they are living in the same body they were born in. The are fleshly and live on earth. What I think you are telling me is that if our bodies stop functioning, we must...

    Bible Study Need help with Matthew 16:28

    Jesus said, who shall loose their life shall find it. Already we see Jesus view on death, is looking way beyond just your body dying. Jesus is not saying kill ourselves and we shall find our life. He is talking about a heart condition, and our whole life, not our physical body. Here you are...

    Bible Study Need help with Matthew 16:28

    Hi, someone recently showed me this scripture in the bible. (Matthew 16:28)  Truly I say to you that there are some of those standing here who will not taste death at all until first they see the Son of man coming in his Kingdom.” They said it had to do with John and implied that John is still...

    Bible Study should women wear head covering and men wear beards ? proof?

    I understand what you are saying and agree. Christians can make their own vows to God and shave their head as a symbol if they want to like Paul did. I said there was no Christian Nazarites because I was thinking of it in terms of the Mosaic Law and the particular set of practices that had to be...

    Bible Study should women wear head covering and men wear beards ? proof?

    :)Yes I agree that man became fallen in nature after Adam and Eve sinned. Although this doesn’t pertain to the issue nor does the Mosaic Law play apart in the issue of whether a Christian woman should wear head covering. The scriptures that you sighted about men wearing head covering in the Old...

    Bible Study should women wear head covering and men wear beards ? proof?

    The idea of headship pertains not only to the marriage arrangement but also the congregational arrangement. Within that context a women shows honor and respect to her husband and to men in the congregation, because they are the ones who should be taking the spiritual lead. If a man is not...

    Bible Study should women wear head covering and men wear beards ? proof?

    A Christian woman does not need to wear head covering at all times. There are a few circumstances when a woman would wear head covering. Keep in mind it is the husband’s role to be the spiritual head of the family. Also only qualified men would preside over and teach within a Christian...

    Something funny happened in church today.

    Yes, I remember my husband using a bag of frozen peas. My son was 3 years old and the only thing we said is don't jump on daddy's lap, he's not feeling well and you will hurt him.

    Something funny happened in church today.

    Today in church I was sitting next to two little girls and their mother. The husband who usually comes to church with them was absent today. The little girl sitting next to me says " Daddy is not here today because he had surgery" I asked her if he was okay. She said " Daddy is ok he had...

    Bible Study God is not harsh. He is reasonable.

    Deborah I didn’t say that Jesus broke the law or encouraged others to do so. This woman was ceremonially unclean. She broke the law she shouldn’t have been in a large crowd were people were pressed against each other. Whoever touched her would be unclean until the evening. Her actions could have...
