OK let's start with John 5:39 Search the scriptures! For in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of Me! "search" is an imperative. Christ is commanding that the scriptures be searched, and also giving instruction as to what the scriptures are to be searched for...

OK so your position is that studying the Bible is "meaningless, non value add, gibberish, nonsensical, no depth meaning or benefit whatsoever" but speculating on whether Paul had a wife is equipping the saints? this is such a bizarre forum. i hardly know what to do with you people.

Eusebius in Ecclesiastical History states as a matter of fact that Paul was married. Origen & Ignatius likewise seem to take it as given. so how 'figured out' is that trivial matter that you have more interest in?

are you saying you have no idea why Adam, who had named his wife Woman, changed her name to Eve?

dear Mary... Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out! “For who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has become His counselor?” (Romans 11:33-34) do you agree that: the scripture is the word of...

great. so if the antetype of Matthias is found in Leviticus 16, where did you find the antetype of Paul?

do you recognize that there is a correspondence between Acts 1:26 & Leviticus 16:8, or do you consider it meaningless coincidence?

there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen. (John 21:25)

oh that's interesting -- so you're saying, the only reason people have for a couple thousand years continued to wonder about certain topics in theology & to seemingly inexhaustibly explore the rich meaning in the scripture, is because they are unintelligent & dishonest? oh apparently Genesis...

Seems to me that the correct answer to this post is not responding to it. Hmm What have i done? Alas! I responded. Forgive me, Josh.

If i can lose my salvation then the life Christ gave me was temporary, not eternal, and He is found a liar. What kind of hope is eternal insecurity? But we have an anchor for the soul, a Lord upon whom we can depend, who is mighty to save to the uttermost

Why does it say "numbered with the 11“ Instead of "counted as one of the 12“ ?

Do you agree that the OT is entirely connected with the NT such that they explain each other and correspond with each other, that it is one scripture with One Author and one purpose being spiritually discerned? Do you understand that there is a 1:1 correspondence between Acts 1:26 and Leviticus...

Mary, you don't strike me as much of a student of scripture. Romans 11:33 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable [are] His judgments and His ways past finding out!

OK so why are we still trying to figure out the hypostatic union and free-will / predestination and grace /works and the origin & meaning of evil, thousands of years later? Because it's so simple? It may be the case that the Bible is a lot more than you think it is. Can you explain something...

i love you for this, sis =]

how can Christ have chosen Judas? if you can answer that, answering how the disciples chose Matthias is childsplay. remember in Acts 1 men first chose two men without consulting heaven. then they asked God to decide between they 2 they chose through divination. just like Leviticus 16. not like...

that's not twisting at all. Judas is antichrist. antichrist ain't 'good' interesting how you phrased that, 'counted among the 11' Matthias becomes like the goat for Azazel. proof to Satan/Judas that atonement is accomplished. saved from death & set free, standing in the empty place Judas the...

he was tho -- as a type of the One who was to come. the people said at Sinai 'don't let God speak to us any more or we will die' - and so Moses intermediated for them. also there is the 'standing in the gap' but these things are types; Moses was never the fullness of it - even so the life of...

not at all. if i have communicated that it is complex beyond all human understanding, then i have effectively done the job of helping you. step 1 is not thinking the Bible is "simple" -- recognizing that the thoughts and ways of infinite God are impossible for us to comprehend even in the least...
