AndrewAd,

If God is invisible then how did Moses see his hinder parts?

Scripture declares God is invisible (Colossians 1:15 and 1 Timothy 1:17) but it also declares the Law was received from angels. (Acts 7:53 and Galatians 3:19)

Did Moses see the hind parts of an angel?
Is the passage figurative?

The Hebrews could not even face the glory that…[Read more]

1 Chronicles 29:20Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

20 And David said to all the congregation, Now bless the Lord your God. And all the congregation blessed the Lord God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads, and worshipped the Lord, and the king.

A better translation is paid homage to than worshiped.

t8,

Study scripture and you will see the word ‘worship’ in a biblical context and who that word is legitimately applied to.

You should study it some more as there is bias in translating certain words to worship.

@t8,

How is this inspiring?

Was there supposed to be an image?

Galatians 4:6Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)

6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

Do you understand and agree with this teaching?

Bodhitharta,

There is but one teaching by which a individual can receive and live by the Spirit of God. Even the best of other teachings is a but a dim shadow of that teaching and so the words of wolves.

Nick,

It is a changed body and yet you keep claiming it is not even though you lack evidence.

Where is it written that the body that rises up as Jesus’ rose will be a damaged old body.

He arose with marks on his body but those marks served a purpose.

Do you think when Jesus healed a wound that even a print of that wound remained?

Gene,

You reached the conclusion that spirit = intellect as a result of your understanding from Jesus teaching that his words are Spirit.

His words come from the Spirit of God but what Jesus meant is they have the characteristics of the Spirit and so holding to them leads you to eternal life.

They are not the intellect though they affect…[Read more]

Gene,

Jesus is warning his hearers not to tempt his children to sin.

For instance a Christian choosing to seduce one of his children to be sexual immoral with them or a bother urging a whose weakness is alcoholism to drink alcohol.

Nick,

I have found that sounds like how you used it and that is 1 Corinthians 9:11.

If I am correct then words themselves would be called carnal.

I am not convinced as Jesus said his words are Spirit and so is Paul’s reasoning.

He was most likely speaking of the message his words conveyed and not the words themselves.

Even then I have…[Read more]

Nick,

In Romans 7:14 it means “sinful” or “a sinner” and the meaning of the passage does not change.

Carnal is a adjective form of flesh in Koine Greek but we get the word flesh from non-Greek(Germanic) roots and Carnal comes from the Greek language.

In general it is used to mean a self without the Spirit.

1 Corinthians 3:3Authorized (King…

Nick,

Romans 7:14 either defines it as being sold under sin or is the result of being sold under sin. He is claiming that before Jesus Christ set him free he lived by the flesh because he was sold under sin though part of him deeply desired to be free.

You used it differently that in any case I know of Scripture using it.

Gene,

I am using as was used in Matthew 15:12 and the short definition is “cause to stumble” (biblehum.com) and the context determines what way the subject is caused to stumble. Offend fits the context.

Terraricca,

I think you misunderstand as Nick is actually quoting from a passage in John 6 or 8. He is not saying anything is given for free.

Gene,

Jesus offended people but with cause.

Bodhitharta,

You are throwing a stone that does not apply to those in the conversation.

4:171 O People of the Scripture, do not commit excess in your religion or say about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His word which He directed to Mary and a soul from Him. So believe in…

t8,

In English there is a difference between hero worship and religious worship. One Koine Greek word seems to have a definition that means worship as in kissing the floor in a temple as well as one that means a type of homage when you kiss the ground. Context must be which definition is used.

t8,

Thank you for your support.

Nick,

Flesh can have no place there.

So no flesh will be saved despite God cutting time short?
