    What's The Unforgivable Sin

    (kriss;3240) Almost Pointer its the one that can't be repented of So what is it? To swear allegiance to the instead of christ or Antichrist. I think very few people actually swear allegiance to the Antichrist, but they are unforgiven anyway. I'm not sure what is meant by 'the instead of christ'...

    Why Did Jesus Say?

    (kriss;3227) "Why did Jesus say, 'My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?'" Because He took the blame and the curse for the sins of everyone, which is something only He can really understand- though it is surely for us to try to understand it.

    A question about Cain

    (ROS777;3212) Pointer; you said, " So do you mean that God gave in to a grumbler? He destroyed most of the Israelites for grumbling."Answer: just looking at what Cain said; it doesn't sound like he was sorry for killing Able. That isn't the answer. Did God give in to a grumbler? Yes, or no?

    A question about Cain

    (KarenCharin0;3201) This is a little off topic but I think it is an interesting point to bring out...... son's of Cain want to be "avenged" 490 times" and sons of God are to "forgive" 490 times. Gen 4:24 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold. Mat 18:21 Then...

    Correctly dividing the word of Truth?

    (LittleSister;2554) :study: II Timothy 2:15 says we are to correctly divide the word of Truth! Divide it from what? Doesn't it say in II Timothy 3:16 that all scripture is inspired by God? (or God breathed?):confused: Someone once said it meant dividing the O.T. from the N.T.?!? But, that just...

    A question about Cain

    The extra words as you call them are very important.Aside from being scripture which is inspired; quick example: Jesus overturned the moneychanger's table ( or tables) in the temple as well as driving out the animals. He was angry. He had a cause. NO SIN.Those extra words are very important...

    A question about Cain

    Yes, it is important. Jesus is saying it is a sin to be angry without cause, but by the same token; it is not a sin to be angry with a cause. That is why the extra words are superfluous. Cain was not repentent. He was grumbling that his punishment was too much. So do you mean that God gave in...

    A question about Cain

    (ROS777;3187) Pointer, I was asking SwampFox but thank you for the answer. Glad to be of assistance. I agree that God shows mercy to whoever he wants to God wants to show mercy to all. He shows mercy to all who call on Him. Matt 5: 22 reads: " BUT I SAY TO YOU THAT WHOEVER IS ANGRY WITH HIS...

    A question about Cain

    Why did God say that Cain would be avenged 7 fold should anyone harm him?He just murdered his brother and destroyed Able's blood line, why was God merciful to Cain? Which of us could stand if God immediately destroyed those disobeyed him? '"You have heard that it was said to the people long...

    I John 4:3KJV: ...and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. NIV: This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world. KJV: And he causeth all...

    Who were the Kenites?

    (KarenCharin0;3136) Heber and Jethro both lived in the land of the Kenites but were not Kenites. A Kenite is a decendent of Cain.From the Strongs Hebrew dictionaryH7014קיןqayinkah'-yinThe same as H7013 (with a play upon the affinity to H7069); Kajin, the name of the first child, also of a place...

    What Bible Versions Do You Own/Use? Why?

    KJV: The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven. NASB: The first man is from the earth, earthy; the second man is from heaven. 1 Cor 15:46 Cyprian died in 258 AD yet he wrote about it and so did Priscillian in the 4th century. Did they refer to it as Scripture...

    What Bible Versions Do You Own/Use? Why?

    Not when it involves something like prophecy where the smallest glitch in an interpretation makes a substantial difference. It does not occur to me that sentences that deal with prophecy are any different in grammar or vocabulary from those that do not. Could you give an example of what you...

    What Bible Versions Do You Own/Use? Why?

    (SwampFox;3117) That is, of course, if you look at it from a purely "scholarly" point of view. I've heard a thousand times that the KJV is "outdated", "incorrect" and so forth but the fact remains that it remains in use for a reason. That reason is not because other versions are abridged...

    What Bible Versions Do You Own/Use? Why?

    That's a subject of debate, but as for those outside of GB, there's nothing to worry about and I've seen many an educated opinion on this. Even inside GB, it's in limited areas as defined by the Royal Prerogative. I run an online version of the KJV. My information (from the Crown Office in...

    What Bible Versions Do You Own/Use? Why?

    So what Bible versions do you own? Just about all of the English translations in print, except the ones made for those with limited reading ability. I don't use any of them for serious study. For personal devotions I quite like the Good News Bible, as it's 'a good read'. For debates I use the...

    Are We Saved by Grace Alone?

    (kriss;2860) We are called by grace (Gal. 1: 15), justified by grace (Tit. 3: 7), and we are established by grace (Heb. 13: 9). The Bible also says we are saved by grace (Eph. 2: 5, 8). However, are we saved by grace alone? Christians are saved by divine grace (undeserved benefit) through faith...

    Who were the Kenites?

    (Slython;3012) Who were the Kenites and exactly how many people went on the ark? The Kenites were a tribe (apparently nomadic) who, in contrast to the Amalekites, treated the Israelites well when they came out of Egypt.'Saul went to the city of Amalek and set an ambush in the ravine. Then he...
