1 Unforgiveable sin. Note Luke 12:10 lionheart Fri 11/20/09, 12:59pm
  CDBJ,
Good day to ya brother. The study of these two Greek words (Pisteuo and Pistis) have always interested me. Not being the Greek scholar as others are I'm curious would Pistis as it is used in James be classified or considered an action verb?
In Him,

4 Correct Understanding of verses? Note Bible general srbaegon Fri 11/20/09, 12:16pm
  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.

5 Unforgiveable sin. Note Luke 12:10 CDBJ Fri 11/20/09, 11:49am
  It seems as though you are taking a defensive position for some reason. Where in my previous post “did I” say that you didn’t have the Son?
The only thing that you confused me with was the sorrow ploy which I can’t find in Scripture.
Boiling down salvation, to its simplest form, is found in the most popular verse in the Bible.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

The problem comes from what the Koine Greek word of the New testament, believe, actually means.

pisteuo, Greek 4100, Strong’s
pisteuo, pist-yoo'-o; from Greek 4102 (pistis); to have faith (in, upon, or with respect to, a person or thing), i.e. credit; by implication to entrust (especially one's spiritual well-being to Christ) believe (-r), commit (to trust), put in trust with.

Faith or believe are transitive verbs, there is no merit in faith; it’s the object of the verb that gets all of the credit, not the fact of faith. The total merit in God’s plan is the person of His unique Son, Jesus the Christ. If one places all of his hope for eternal life in who and what Jesus did God gives eternal life as a free gift.
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Repentance and faith are two sides of the same coin. Repentance isn’t sorrow as many would have one believe but it comes to us from the word “METANOEO”, meta to change and noeo for mind, i.e. have a change of mind about the person of Christ.
Luke 13:5
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
Couple that with the following.
John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

These aren’t my ideas, its God’s Word.
Have a great day, CDBJ

  The law was fulfilled by adding to it. "The law was added so that the trespass might increase." Rom. 5:20 Also see Heb. 7:12b.
7 Unforgiveable sin. Note Luke 12:10 Theodore A. Jones Fri 11/20/09, 4:22am
  I tend to think since you are in the classification of each man too and by this fact required by God to give him a direct account about his only begotten son's life lost by bloodshed that your argument is with Him rather than with me.
8 Unforgiveable sin. Note Luke 12:10 Theodore A. Jones Fri 11/20/09, 4:15am
  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.
9 Unforgiveable sin. Note Luke 12:10 Dhaniei Zewditu Fri 11/20/09, 1:08am
  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.

10 How is Fri to Sun 3 days and nights? Note NT general Dhaniei Zewditu Fri 11/20/09, 12:45am
  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.

11 Unforgiveable sin. Note Luke 12:10 CDBJ Thu 11/19/09, 10:25pm
  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?
CDBJ

12 Unforgiveable sin. Note Luke 12:10 Theodore A. Jones Thu 11/19/09, 9:11pm
  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.
13 Gos Can Speak! Note 1 Cor 12:3 justme Thu 11/19/09, 8:22pm
  teacher: I went to the website you have in the Update User Info. I read a good deal of the materal and especially the Speaking in Tongues. After considering your rather odd way of posting questions and the answer you gave lionheart I have a strange thinking that may not be too off.

Are you teacher@earthsalvation.com, not the same person as Peter Kevin martell? I believe you are in deed Peter Kevin Martell. If my belief is incorrect please correct me! If I am wrong my sincere appology. However if my belief is true, and I do really believe you are Peter Kevin Martell. If you are Mr. Martell, you are a wolf in sheeps clothing on the forum!

Peter Kevin Martell is out of focus, and is ignorant to base his main teology on speaking in tougues on verses like Mark 16:15-20. There is serious question about these verses as the earliest copies of Mark do not even have these verses. This is often notetated in the side notes or botton of page notes about these verses.

all the GIFTS of the Holy Spirit are GIVEN by the Holy Spirit, are they not? Do you ask for a gift? NO a gift is given, not asked for over and over, that's called a request, or in some cases a demand.

What about getting all worked up about the Serving gifts? Paul said the Speaking in Tongues was the least desired of the gifts. But Mr. Martell makes the Speaking of Tongues to be far more worthy and essential for the Christian life and growth than any other Holy Spiritual Gift.

If you are Mr. Martell than what you are doing is underhanded, and attempting to advertise your website is using the Lockman Foundation for your selfish motives.

  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!

15 Unforgiveable sin. Note Luke 12:10 CDBJ Thu 11/19/09, 7:30pm
  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”?

17 All Don't Have The Same Ministry In Lord Note 1 Cor 12:5 Searcher56 Thu 11/19/09, 3:34pm
  ... Yes, there is no one gift possessed all and no one has all the gifts.
18 God Is At Work Note 1 Cor 12:6 Searcher56 Thu 11/19/09, 3:32pm
  God's day to you, teacher@earthsalvation.com

I see the Trinity in these three verses ...
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.

Diairesis is the word for diversities (or divisions), which is good unlike words translated divisions in this book ... schisma (1Co 1:10, 11:18, 12:25) dichostasia (1Co 3:3).

  1 Cor 12:5 And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord.
___
Again, the varieties are divisions. The Lord gives one ministry to one man and another ministry to another. We do not all have the same ministry from the Lord.
