Doc: To explain more fully any question that has more than a small paragraph simply will not post. Perhaps my computer is at fault. I can reall only once in eight years that the forum has experienced a problem that I am aware of.
I sincerely appreciate and respect your answers and notes you post. Often I find new and interesting thoughts that inspire me to dig deeper into a subject brought up. Thanks Doc!

Dear Justme,
If you think your computer may be at fault, you may want to download Ccleaner. It is especially good for people who spend alot of time online and it has NO spyware, adware, or any-ware type junk. I use it on a daily basis.

Hello,
Your quotation is accurate but taken out of context. As given here the quote appears to demonstrate that obey the law makes one righteous. That is not correct. Later, Paul writes:
Romans 3:19-20 (ESV)
Now we know that whatever the law says it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God. [20] For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin.
Since obeying the law does not justify anyone, how can Paul say that obedience to the law will justify? Paul's point in chapter two (as you follow it through to chapter four) is to make plain the fact that he is comparing the Jews who hear the law and do nothing because they really do not believe it to Gentiles who have not heard the law but instinctively do part of it. He is trying to point out that the high-minded Jews are no better than the barbarians mentioned in chapter one. Then he summarizes in chapter three that ALL men are sinners and we cannot do ANY work to justify ourselves.

Searcher56: I have read what you state in other places, however the majority view is any part of a day is considered as a day. I appreciate your depth of explination, but respectfully don't agree with it. We will have to ask the Lord someday how it really was. I enjoyed the fresh thought the dept and length of your point of view.
Blessing Searcher!

Dear Searcher,
I must agree with you on the Friday thing (or Nissan 15) as this would be the first day of the 7 days of Unleavened Bread. This first day (whatever day it falls on each year is a Special Sabbath). Special Sabbaths have a few less restrictions to them (such as being able to prepare the meals, a bit more traveling distance, etc.) but the restrictions such as touching a corpse still applies.
If one follows the days, counting backwards, in the book of John (John 12:12-13, you quoted it yourself), we actually find that Yeshua's (Jesus) arrival in Jerusalem was not on a Friday, but on the Sabbath (most likely Fri. evening after sundown, but still to the Jew, on the 7th day, on the Sabbath). Then we have the 4 days that the Lamb was to be brought into the house and examined. (Again, you stated it!) It was a common term to call the Temple the House, and He was indeed examined for 4 days by the Pharisees, Saduccees, scribes and ordinary people for the next 4 days and was found to be without fault, spot or blemish. He was slaughtered on the 4th day of the week, the Saduccean Day of Preparation (this would be Weds. when the earth was covered in darkness).
(The Pharisaic Day of Preparation fell on the next day, according to the time the very first meal was eaten in Egypt, which was around midnight on the 15th of Nisan.)
This would put our Lamb in the tomb sometime before sunset on Weds. evening to the time just after sundown on Saturday (a time the Jews call Havdalah, a very short period of time where heaven and earth touch, where the holy merges just for an instant with the common as we leave the holy for the mundane of the coming work week[just a tradition, but a very profound tradition]). Within a few short hours, very early on Sunday morning at dawn, there is the wondrous finding of an empty tomb!!
So, we have Weds pm to Thurs am equaling 1 night.
We have Thurs pm to Fri am equaling 1 night.
And we have Fri pm to Sat am equaling 1 night. 3 Nights.
We have Thurs am to Thurs pm equaling 1 day.
We have Fri am to Fri pm equaling 1 day.
We have Sat am to Sat pm equaling 1 day. 3 Days.
He was never actually in the tomb on Sunday, He had risen, His empty tomb was discovered on this wonderful day.

"Love is at the bottom of all. We may give a reason of other things, but we cannot give a reason of His love, God showed His wisdom, power, justice, and holiness in our redemption by Christ. If you ask, Why He made so much ado about a worthless creature, raised out of the dust of the ground at first, and had now disordered himself, and could be of no use to Him? We have an answer at hand, Because He loved us. If you continue to ask, But why did He love us? We have no other answer but because He loved us; for beyond the first rise of things we cannot go. And the same reason is given by Moses, Deuteronomy 7:7-8: 'The Lord did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people, for ye were the fewest of all people; but because the Lord loved you...' That is, in short, He loved you because He loved you. All came from His free and undeserved mercy; higher we cannot go in seeking after the causes of what is done for our salvation." --Thomas Manton |

Dear T.A.J.
From the knowledge that you have acquired over the years, can you confidently answer the following?
Have you come to the place yet, in your spiritual journey, where you can say for sure that you have eternal life waiting for you when you pass from this life and why; ”in ten words or less”?

Yes. It is my belief and I am confident that I am correct that by the faith of confessing directly to God that I am sorry Jesus' life was taken by bloodshed and having been baptized into this Way of righteousness I have been forgiven by God of all my sins. I am also confident that any other man can only be born again of God by this Way of faith. |

I find it interesting that you had to use 71 words to convey what could have been said in less then ten.
Pray tell, what does sorrow have to do with anything: Scripture please.
Do you actually think that God the Father is impressed with your sorrow or is He impressed with what Jesus did for your sin problem?
Proverbs 14:12
There is a way "which seemeth right" unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
John 3:18
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
John 3:36
He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.
1 John 5:12
He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
How can you be sure that you have the Son?

Dear Mr. Jones,
Being sorry has NOTHING to do with repentance. Changing your mindset and the direction in which you're headed has EVERYTHING to do with repentance.
One can be truly sorry that they cheated on their spouse, stole money from the till, scarfed away that cookie cooling on the rack, etc. That same person was probably even sorrier the next time they did the deed, and the next, and the next....
Repentance institutes a CHANGE, not only in attitude but in actions. There will never again be a second (or third, or fourth, etc.) time. The mind (or heart, if you prefer to call it that) is changed by an act of the will - this is repentance which leads to salvation. Brought on by the Holy Spirit, convicting the inner man that is now alive in those of us called by God to be walking epistles.
Other deeds will be committed, we are all human, and we're basically "screw-ups", but being sorry for these deeds will accomplish nothing except condemnation. Only a changing of our thinking and behavior will turn us toward the Way and keep us walking in that direction. And we can only do this by the Spirit of our Lord and Master.

Glad you find it intresting that I have used more words than you allow. As for your assumption that I do not have the son' prove that you do. then worry about the speck in my eye. |
