    you are suppoused to be reserved :) for that one connection :)

    How do you think the devil and the demons figure into such "voices," @Edward429451?

    you are suppoused to be reserved :) for that one connection :)

    My vague memory of the soul and spirit in the Bible is that they are often used interchangeably so that there's very little difference. We have a soul and a life (spirit); and we also have the old, sinful nature and the new, God-loving nature that he has given us through Jesus' resurrection by...

    Her hair is her glory

    Thank you, @Edward429451. I have had a lot of practice with these steps of interpretation as a pastor for 27 years and a published author of Christian books (almost 17 years).

    Jesus will save you if you.... ???

    God is my personal friend, adoptive Father, my divine Boss, my Creator, Redeemer, Sanctifier, my 3-in-1 Rescuer--all of those biblical roles. Sure, I serve him by seeking his advice and counsel every step of my way. (See the book What God Has Done: My True, Dramatic God-Biography [Amazon].)

    Her hair is her glory

    @Lamb, as always, the context of a verse is very important to discover for any good interpretation. First, we need to read at least the whole chapter and look for the principles or main ideas that Paul is basing his thoughts on. Second, we discover that verse 3 states the main idea, "But I...

    how succusesful would a jesus cd be (movie) in cd form. do you think people are able to watch it ? ( reach muslims and the lost )

    To answer your original question, @Holy999, I am trying to get TV and movie production companies to turn five of my Christian novels into two TV series and three movies. I think that God put that desire into my heart and that there is a vast market for such productions. I request prayers for...

    the "SPIRIT"

    May I help your comment a little, @Holy999? The Holy Spirit is a Person of God, not an "itself." How do I know? We can grieve him (Ephesians 4:30), and Jesus has described him as a personal Helper. Jhn_14:26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach...

    Did Christ die for them that are perishing ?

    So, answer my questions, @brightfame52, please. You didn't in this post.

    The actual Body and Blood, or just symbolic?

    Jesus often speaks in metaphors comparing ordinary things and people with his spiritual reality: I am the door , the good Shepherd, the bread of life, and the true Vine in order to teach spiritual truths (compare with the seven "I am" claims in the Gospel of John). John 6 is a perfect example of...

    Did Christ die for them that are perishing ?

    I'm saying, @brightfame52, that we were enemies of God whom he reconciled to himself. Are you saying that unbelievers are reconciled to God even though they will continue in their old, non-faith ways? Is that what you're saying?
  12. B

    Did Christ die for them that are perishing ?

    @brightfame52, it's in spite of the fact that we were God's enemies, God came to us to make us his friends, and thus we are. We were lost, and God found us and changed our lives. That's what Paul is describing, @brightfame52. Read the whole context. Paul is writing about believers who were God's...

    its easy to debate a unbeliver.

    I praise the Lord with you, @Edward429451, for God's amazing answer to your prayer. I guess we need to pray before, during, and after events so that God's blessings may flow! Of course, he often gives them to us without our asking too, doesn't he?

    what does god say about kissing. kiss=no (spiritual)

    On the other hand, there was during Bible times, such a thing as a "holy kiss," which Paul and Peter command Christians to do. How are we to understand the following commands? Rom_16:16 Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ greet you. 1Co_16:20 All the brothers send...

    Our thoughts or God's thoughts?

    I have had many situations in my life for me to be troubled about, but God has taught me a biblical pattern that isn't in the western culture, persistent lamenting (for example, Job 10; Psalms 6, 22, 39, 88; Habakkuk; Jeremiah's Lamentations 3) until God gives me his peace (Philippians 3:6-7)...

    what does god say about kissing. kiss=no (spiritual)

    My understanding of the Song of Solomon is that it is a celebration of romance within marriage given to God. It is important to keep romance alive in marriage. I was a pastor for 27 years, and my one rule about women in the church was that I stay away from hugging them, much less kissing them...

    Forgive them for they do not know what they do.

    Yes, I'm very thankful, @Lamb!

    Our thoughts or God's thoughts?

    Amen, Edward429451! That's true to the Holy Spirit's work in my experience too!

    The actual Body and Blood, or just symbolic?

    However, in those passages he wasn't talking about his literal body either, was he @Lamb?
