Hi Chap,I have always thought that it was good to celebrate the birth of Jesus. But we have no idea what day that was.So if you happen to celebrate that day on the 25th of December with a gathering of friends and family, I see no harm.The problem is that the majority of people are not celebrating the birth of Christ on December 25th., but…[Read more]

Of course God knows both good and evil.As Kejohn pointed out, God created both good and evil.Also Gen. 1 in the Hebrew text says that God is creating man in His image, not created as the KJV says. In other words it is an ongoing process in which man must learn things like the difference between good and evil.Without darkness, how could man know…[Read more]

First and foremost, Heb 6:4-6 can not mean that you lose salvationIf it does then there is no place for the prodical son in the bible. The prodical son is all about God forgiving our falling away and accepting us back.Jesus also said that we should forgive 70 X 7. Would he do less?The literal translation as found in the Greek interlineary…[Read more]

Quote (Not3in1 @ Nov. 13 2007,10:52)Tim, I'm curious – what type of church do you attend?Hi Not3in1,My church is a multidenominational church (that for some strange reason is called non-denominational) in a small community that can not support more than one church.The pastor is an evangelical pastor who believes in hell but does not preach it. He…[Read more]

No Stu, Isaiah nor Jerimiah make it clear what to accept and what to reject. But to me it is clear that some of what Moses said that God commanded was suspect.Jer 7:22 “For I did not speak to your fathers, or command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings and sacrifices. Jer 7:23 “But this is…[Read more]

Quote (david @ Nov. 11 2007,19:26)Quote I am beginning to let go of some of the teachings of the Bible.  This sounds heretical, blasphemous even,Yes, it does.Surely that statement is not sacrelige, or blasphemous.We have all let go of many of the teachings of the bible.We no longer keep our slaves the way the laws of the bible dictate.

Hi Chap,We have discussed this before. The Lucifer hoax is a myth created by theologiansby twisting verses in the bible. Satan was a liar from the beginning, he was never Lucifer, one of God's favorite angels, or the choir director. But if you want to continue to believe this I don't thinkthat God will be angry. It isn't necessary that you know…[Read more]

Gehenna is ot the lake of fire. It is merely the garbage dump outside of jeruselum.Where the garbage was burned, and sometimes the bodies of the dead.Jesus used it because his desciples knew what it was.Hades and the lake of fire can not both be hell because in the end hades is throwninto the lake of fire. Perhaps the lake of fire is for…[Read more]

Quote (IM4Truth @ Nov. 05 2007,00:53)TimTimothy Where do you go to read up on the interlinerary in Greek? I ner heard of that before. I do not have a Greek tranlatiom of the Bible.Actually, I find this site easier to navigate.http://www.scripture4all.org/index.htmYou can search through the Greek or the Hebrewtranslations.Tim

Thank youLove and Peace Mrs.Mrs iam4,Never trouble yourself with the thought that you have made a fool of yourself among friends. It can not happen. We love you.I will pray for you every day.Tim

Quote (Stu @ Nov. 04 2007,12:52)TimAnd, why Luke 23:34 or Matthew 27:46?StuartHi stu,Actually Luke 23:34 is interesting to me for another reason than that which you suggest.It has always been comforting to think that Jesus asked God to forgive these wretches in spite of what they were doing.But if you read the Greek interlineary wording of that…[Read more]

At the risk of seeming dissrespectful, forgive me God,this topic has been a stumbling block for me.If Jesus is truly God, then He knew that He was only comingdown here for a short while and then going back to being God again.There was no faith in the unknown involved, as we are required to have.He knew it was going to be a short visit and then…[Read more]

Hi acertainchap.If you are speaking about the wisdom in proverbs, I think it is”Pride before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.”I hope that school is going well for you.Tim
