[continuation of previous question, "Did Jesus institute the Lord's Supper after He observed Passover?" . -- grand_puba ] m273p15c, I have no ill-will toward you and do not feel that you have any toward me, but we simply need to come to terms with "agreeing to disagree". Lest we continue in disregar...

email

m273p15c, I will cease all correspondence to avoid any ill will between us, but I felt compelled by the spirit to send this to you also with regards to the Septuagint...one must fully appreciate that any references that seem to be from the Septuagint are few and far between, and mostly alluded to i...

Dearest Brother m273p15c, With all due respect, my native tongue is English, but after 100's if not 1000's of hours of bible study I was disenchanted with the abundant amount of contradictions within the scriptural text of the English bibles, and no matter or number of concordance references can mak...

email

m273p15c, I do appreciate your kindness and thought in this matter, but I have just a couple of questions before I digress. Do you make any attempts to learn the Hebrew/Greek/Aramaic languages? Have you studied their intricacies, idioms and truly beautiful nature and fluidness? It seems to me you ar...

m273p15c, We're going to take this one step at a time, and work our way through this for a time and perhaps half a time after that, but I won't spend hours on debate of an issue that may never be rectified. In other words, we may simply have to agree to disagree. Mat 26:17 Now was the first day of t...

email

Relax m273p15c, I'm getting to that, it's going to obviously take an essay to convince you that your belief it was a passover meal is incorrect. It will take me some time to compile the data for you. Time which I have not had, but will cover soon. I don't doubt the other gospels credibility at all, ...

email

m273p15c, Nice to see that you included the Book of John... John 13:1 Now before the feast of the passover , when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end. John makes it very cl...

I have been investigating Calvinism and came across your web pages. They have been very helpful. I have a related question though and the forums link isn't working. On your page about "Total inherited depravity", you mention in Deuteronomy 1:39 that children " have no knowledge of good and evil". Sc...

email

Hello again Brother! I'm sorry m273p15c, but the simple fact that "the Passover Lamb" cannot eat of itself is enough to end any progressing debate. Even though I have no "locked in" belief of Wednesday or Thursday crucifixion just yet (as both bear equal weight), I felt the chart was enough to show ...

I have attached a graphic to help illustrate my belief... please review and comment.

Does 1 Tim 3:12 teach that a deacon must have more than one child?

Thank you

To: http://www.insearchoftruth.org Regarding: the use of instruments in worship / your online article: It saddens me that the author of "answering arguments for Intruments in Worship" would submit that he 'dare not do other than sing unaccompanied' for fear of exercising the sin of presumption. In o...

Wow. That's creepy. Yeah, I'm a Christian, but I find it to be too hard and have contemplated not bothering. Yeah, I admit that I'm being selfish. You see, I want to get married and I know that I can't get married to someone unless they're a Christian. Problem is that there aren't any Christians to ...

email

Thanks so much for the reply. My responses are in blue.... Thanks for the comment. May I explain my statement that Jesus broke unleavened bread? First, yes, you are correct that the original Greek word, artos , is a generic word for bread and even food. It does not necessarily connote the idea of u...

email

I read your article...very interesting. I only have one comment...at the end of the article you state that the bread eaten by Yeshua at the Lord's Supper was "unleavened" bread. If you would please refer to the Greek in the translations, you will find that this is incorrect. The word used in all ref...

email

My question was how many years will take between the End of the day (Jesus coming back on earth SOON) until the Final judgment day (someone say after another thousand years, God will get rid of wicked ones one last time)?

Cheers.

email

How long between the end of the day to the FINAL judgement day?

email

Just wondering who you folks are and why you never say if you are affiliated with any "church". I am very curious and would like you to identify yourself. Thanks

email

Excellent Bible studies and articles! Please add articles and teaching concerning modern trends and false teachings in the church today. Thanks.

Hi Sir, I do know that "forever"differs in meaning at times as used in the Scriptures. However,as I said before, at Ecclesiastes 1:4, it is used as a CONTRAST with a generation. Ecclesiastes 1:4 = "one generation passeth away , and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth forever." "passeth ...

email

hi Sir, Earth will last forever. At Ecclesiastes 1:4, a contrast is made in this text. A generation is temporary but the earth is permanent , "abideth forever".If earth is temporary, then the contrast made in this text becomes meaningless. It would be as if the text is saying, "a generation is tempo...

Hi Larry, Kindly consider the following: Will God really destroy the earth by fire? Does 2 Peter 3:7, 10 King James version( KJ ) support that view? "The heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition ["destructi...

email

I read this article with interest. Although I am a Calvinist, I applaud your treatment of the subject as it was written in a fair, simple and humble manner - something lacking on both sides of the camp. I have read many counter arguments against Calvinism and find myself putting down the book before...

email

Hi Sir, Thank you for your reply. Yes, I agree that each one has free will to choose what he/she does. Interestingly, Isaiah 2:2-4 is clearly saying that in the LAST DAYS, in which we are NOW living, those who take up God's pure worship will NOT fight wars.What does reliable secular history indicate...

email

This is an extremely helpful article and I thank you very much for posting it. I just wanted to mention an alternate understanding of Jude 1:5. The author writes: "Earlier in the context we are reminded of one occasion, when God saved the righteous, while destroying the wicked, unbelieving Egyptian...

email

Hello Sir, I wish here to discuss God's purpose for the earth. Some people believe that God would destroy our earth. Is that what the Scriptures teach? No. Rather, the Scriptures clearly teach that earth is man's everlasting home. For instance, the Scriptures show that our earth is going to last for...

email

A thought to consider. Should Christians fight national wars? Isaiah 2:2-4 indicates to me in no uncertain terms that in the LAST DAYS, in which we now live, Christians will have NO part in wars. Christians fight a SPIRITUAL war, not fleshly. (2 Corinthians 10:3, 4) If a religion allows its members ...

My daughter and I have been approached on the subject of ghosts. I am not sure how to answer. Do they exist? Can they contct us?

I have been reading your articles and value your thoughts.

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my questions. I really appreciate it. I enjoyed visiting your page and will probably do so again.

Does Numbers 9 and II Chronicles 30 have any bearing on the Lord's Supper today?

email

Is the practice of placing your fellowship at a local church when you move from on city to another a Biblical practice?

Is is wrong to offer the Lord's Supper at the evening service as well as at the morning service.

I've been typing for my Dad again ... here's another article to consider..... Angela MEN WHO SHOULD NOT PREACH By Donald Townsley The word of God has much to say about preachers and preaching; their qualifications are very important. Men who preach the gospel should be Christians in the fullest sen...

email

Hello again. Thank you all so much for your past help. Here is another one. I read the article about women pastors . If a woman has the title of pastor, does that mean that she is not saved or just doesn't fully understand what the Bible says about it? Should we immediately question her salvation? T...

email

God enables me to have faith and to have the ability to believe. But I cannot put faith in myself or trust myself to be perfect. One sin caused and still causes a division between man and God no matter how big or small it is. We will always be sinning and falling short of the glory of God in our tho...

email

Please think about what you are saying. "Works" are at the heart of your reasoning for hanging on to salvation. Whether it be a set amount of good works or a limited amount of bad works. (or a specific sin that we commit) It is a mysterious line that no one knows when we cross it. It sounds like it ...

email

what explains your point of view the most is what you say about the 'line that God draws for every one of us which is not known' that speaks completely to works for our salvation...as well as luck.

you do not see that.

God bless you in your search for the truth.

About Esau.

You missed the point about how Esau sought forgiveness "carefully" with tears. The point is that he was not truly repentant. He used tears too look repentful...kinda like chilren sometimes do when they want something bad enough.

email

I am very concerned for you too m273p15c. I hope that you at least believe that Satan exists and can mess with our minds quite easily. Even you can be misled. I say this because you are very contradictory in your response. You say that people can lose their faith by sin or not remaining faithful whi...

email

Does the passage of Romans 7:14-25 describe a believer or a non-believer? I've always believed that Paul was describing a believer, but I've also heard views that it describes a nonbeliever.

email

Larry, Thank you for your response. I throw things out sometimes to see where people are at.Paul wrote to the Corinthians about feeding them with milk and not meat because they would not be able to bear it. God's sovereignty is a very deep, wide, long and meaty subject. Just like you'd never throw a...

Becoming a Christian is a selfish decision, all it does is allow one to blame the troubles of their life on God, who - just so you know - doesn't exist. Jesus was real but not in the sense that you believe, and he was a BLACK MAN. Christianity was invented to control people, to scare them into behav...

email

Looking back on your explanation it seems very vague. Like you are avoiding the questions. What if I put it to you like this instead? 1. Please explain to me how someone can enter Heaven when he dies? 2. When someone gains entrance to Heaven, can they lose it? And if so, how exactly can they lose en...

If we have been commanded to use only vocal style music in modern church worship, which is what I am gathering from what I have been reading throughout your study, then why does God consitently show up and show Himself strong in thousands of worship services around the world today despite the fact t...

I believe in the total depravity of man in concerning mans spiritual condition.

Thank you so much for your complete answers to my past inquiries.

We are having a discussion with a friend who calls it heresy to suggest that someone pray to ask God to save them from their sin. We're not talking about the 1,2,3, Pray after me and you're saved-type of thing. We're talking about a prayer of repentance and belief. We also emphasize that the salvati...

Thank you so much for your response. I'm starting to read through the whole Bible now, and I think you may have provided the best explanation for election I've ever heard from someone. Thank you again. May God continue to bless you all and guide you in His truth.

Hello. I sent an inquiry with this same title sometime ago. I received your response; however, I accidentally deleted it and cannot retrieve it. Could you please send your response again?

Thank you so much.
