    live in shame or die honorably?

    It is also how one perceives ones self and ones relationship to others in the same honour based community. Most people in these communities are not subsitence farmers but the nobility and those aspiring to belong to the nobility.

    live in shame or die honorably?

    They don't see it as hypocrisy. They are operating in a system where the only real rule is, 'don't get found out.'

    Matthew 26:28 ,for this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for forgiveness of sins Romans 5:9 ,Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. Hebrews 10:19-22 ,let us draw near with a sincere heart in full...

    What Is the Truth About the Holy Spirit in John 16:13 in All Bibles?

    It comes down to accountability. If there is need for cash it comes from the congragation, but if giving is being encouraged to support an extravagent lifestyle or pointless decorations question the minister and elders privately and publicly at the church buisness meeting about such expediture...

    Born again from above?

    There is no need to apologise for your slipshod interpretation of such a stright forward passage. As Jesus says, that which is born of water is flesh and that which is born of spirit is spirit ie conversion from nonchristian to Christian.

    Does "LAW" matter?

    To whom are you speaking? If you use the reply tag or highlight and hit quote a passage you want to comment on. It makes repling to you easier. Yes the laws were given to the people/kingdom of Israel and as we don't belong to them. The laws donot apply to us. But. As followers of Jesus we...

    live in shame or die honorably?

    It depends who and when you are referring to. Honour is a mixture of public regard for a person or a family about how they are seen to behave. In ancient societies that regard literally could mean life or death, as to have been seen to have lost ones 'honour' meant exclusion from society. Death...

    Who sins?

    Yet we do sin and need to go back to God to ask for forgiveness. Yes they will not debarr us from heaven, but they will if not dealt with spoil our relationship with God. We need to take our sin seriously, it is not a light thing.

    Does "LAW" matter?

    That is why I asked what you mean by the law. There are many laws that are for use in the temple, others that have a civil yet hygene application, like smashing any pot that a dead lizard is found in. Then there are the laws about not cooking a kid in its mothers milk or useing two types of...

    Jesus in Islam

    Yasooo compare what you say with how militant islam in action behaves:- Camp Speicher, by now full of Iraqi military recruits, was surrounded by the Isis militants and surrendered. The thousands of captives were sorted, the Shia were weeded out, bound, and trucked away to be systematically...

    Born again from above?

    This is the 'born again' passage. John 3:3, Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. v5:except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the...

    Heaven

    As Heaven is where God is, it is not a 'state of being', but is a place.

    Does "LAW" matter?

    What do you mean by the 'Law'? Jesus said that not even punctuation marks were going to be removed from the'Law', he also said that he came to fulfill the 'Law'. The 10C tell us what God expects of us and shows us when/where we are failing. For Christians the big command is the one Jesus...

    Ever Consider This?

    Where does it say that Adam was only Spirit? Genesis talks about there being every living plant available for food. Spirit beings do not need to eat.

    Face to face vs Darkness

    A red herring is something that misleads or distracts from a relevant or important issue. In this context it is not to respond to question that only apply once the person you are talking to has agreed that the logic means there is a God and that it is unreasonable to be an atheist.

    What Is the Truth About the Holy Spirit in John 16:13 in All Bibles?

    The same way that one determines that the preacher is not preaching in order to make money.

    men hear themselves

    If you mean will someone be saved by only reading the scripture. I think not, but how many people with an interest in spiritual things, only read the bible. Most if they are interested talk to people, read other books, blogs etc and attend church services.

    Who sins?

    John say if we say we do not sin, we decieve ourselfs and the truth is not in us. We ALL sin, Christian, nonchristian, everyone. The difference is that Christians know they have sinned, are ashamed and seek forgiveness from God. This you know in your own life.
