Questions Part 1.
In our church pastor gives us a chance to ask questions at the end of his sermon. I want to give you just a few of the questions and answers
# 1. what does it mean in the Bible when it says a woman must be silent in church.
This is a problem with the Greek translation into the English. The proper word should be that a woman should not chatter in church. Pastor will not allow either men or women to chatter in church when God's word is being taught. When it comes to women Philip had four daughters they were all virgins and they prophesied. You might want to say that a man helped them but that's not true because they were all virgins. They converted the whole strip from Gaza clear up to Tyra which Israel never did but these four women along with Philip were able to convert them. A wrong translation can do a lot of harm when they pull away from the manuscripts this is why scholarly work is so important. Here it would seem that there is a contradiction in God's word but there is no contradiction in God's word it's in man's interpretation, or a lack of property teaching, that caused this problem.
.answer
i am only going to do 1 question at a time.
Unless i miss understood it in my studies the word speak and chatter should have been translated gossip. and that applies to men or women. Their are women teachers and preachers all through history with Gods blessing. Nothing wrong with a Godly woman. There is not enough of them now.
#2. I believe that when the Antichrist comes we will all still be in flesh bodies?
This is absolutely correct.
I have a second question if I am in pain does that mean that I'm still in my flesh body?
Yes it does and if you can pinch yourself and and you feel it you are definitely still in your flesh body. That's not difficult to understand is it. A third of the angels that were deceived in the first Earth age as it is stipulated in
Revelation 12.3 and there appeared another Wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon having seven heads and 10 horns, and 7 crowns upon their heads. Verse 4. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of Heaven, and did cast them to the Earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered for to deliver her child as soon as it was born. That is who God wants to see if in the flesh they will still want to worship the snake or will they listen to the teaching, the seed planting that will pull them away from Satan to God. If they fall again after the Millennium they're done there is no third chance.
answer
in stead of pinching your self, you should prick your self to see if you bleed. It has been my understanding that spirital bodies can not bleed. that is why God had to become flesh so he could shed his blood and die on the cross. God could not do that as a spirit.
#3. Is the Antichrist symbolic or will he actually appear in the flesh?
He will not appear in the flesh because he is a spiritual being he was one of the cherubim that covered The Mercy Seat in the first Earth age. Satan when he appears will look just like a normal man but he will be a spiritual being it will appear to most that he is just another man because he will look like us, he will eat like us, the only way you will know who he is, is with spiritual discernment. I can guarantee you that if you've ever been around someone with a demonic spirit you will be able to discern it.
answer
i believe this to be correct. but if i may add this food for thought. It is given that all spiritual bodies must become flesh. the only way that happens is being born of woman. Because of Lucifer trying to over throw God in 1st heaven and earth age. he is the only spirit that has been barred from being born of women. that is how his fate has been sealed. The angels of jude that missed there appointment had their chance but made their dissision when they left. So now their fate is sealed. But according to the Bible when antichrst shows up he will decieve the whole world. So keep your armor on. Cause only Gods elect wil not be decieved.
#4. How much gold and silver, or other things of value should we have on hand to prepare for the hour of Temptation.
Well how long is the hour of Temptation? It is a 5-month that God promises us something and it is a real big promise, it is in
Revelation chapter 2 verse 10 that no individual, even though there are 5 months of persecution no person will have have more than 10 days of persecution. You have a pretty good limit there, you should always have things that you can barter with. If you happen to have a watch on your arm or any type of jewelry you can take that to your local Merchant and trade it for food or anything else you might need, that way you will not have to worship the Antichrist in order to get his money to be able to sustain yourself. You don't need to be stocking up enough silver, gold, or anything else for a lifetime you must remember that this is only going to be a 5-month period. It must remember that back in the day when most people were either businessmen or farmers they would trade their labor or their goods for other things that they had need of most of the time money was never exchanged.
answer
If the walking dead taught us any thing is that in times of scarcity its not the zombies you need to watch out for. but the living. if you have silver and gold be carful about using it. because they find that you have it. they will come trade your life for it. but some wont hurt but it might be better to useful items like food to trade. stuff like that . those are my thoughts what do you think.
#5. Why is it that good people have to die? Why is it that when they get old they have to get sick, broken down, and die.
The answer to that is that these flash bodies are not our real bodies. And First Corinthians chapter 15 you will read that we have two bodies, at this present time, one is the flesh body and the other is a spiritual body. It is true that this flesh body will get old, that at any time in life it can get sick and you could die. We are really not at home in this flesh body, but you have a spiritual body that will never get old, never get sick, and will never die. That spiritual body is eternal, that is why some people have seen angels and they appear as a young person.
First Corinthians 15 verse 42. So also is theis the resurrection of the Dead. It is sown an incorruption; it is raised in incorruption: verse 43. It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sow and in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power verse 44. it is so on a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. Remember when the two women went to the Tomb of Jesus.
Luke 24verse 1 now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them. Verse 2. And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulcher. Verse 3. And they entered in, and found not the Lord Jesus. Verse 4 and it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments.
answer
you are right there are a lot of questions, But quickly that is the system we live in. just youtube " from craddle to grave" its a real thing. But God still has answers.
We were getting a little long here, and I will pick it up later because there are more questions answers to follow.
Remember every day in God's word is a good day.
