Ask and it shall be given unto you. Seek and you shall find. Knock and the door shall be opened unto you. For he that asks, receives. He that seeks, finds. To him that knocks, the door shall be opened. Something else I found out is that if you are in a situation ministering to other people...

While I wouldn't rule out that the Lord might show that someone had a 'Jezebel spirit' I would also like to point out that the verse you quoted does not mention a 'Jezebel spirit.' I avoid using terminology like 'Jezebel spirit' and 'religious spirit' if I am teaching or explaining something...

Can you show some examples of usage of the term in the Bible that illustrates that it means that. I think Peter gives us a good rule-of-thumb understanding of what the word means. Peter wrote that holy men of old spake as they were carried along by the Holy Ghost. That's generally what it...

Make sure to burp loudly after a meal while visiting Chinese people, to be polite.

In math it's numbers that keep going up and up forever, or down and down forever.

That is a finite number of __digits___ in our numbering system. How many 'digits' did the Romans have, i,v,x,m,c... what else did they have? It's a wonder they did what they did with their numeric system.

From what I have studied, it seems like words translated 'eternal' or 'forever and ever' mean 'forever and ever' not this abstract meaning of 'eternal' which probably comes from theological/philosophical speculation more recent than the writing of the Bible. Reading that idea into verses would...

One can be stimulating, supporting, and motivating without prophesying. My understanding is that this is what prophesying does, not what prophesying is.... the function of prophesying, not the definition of it. Peter wrote of prophecies of old that holy men of old spoke as they were carried...

I don't see any scripture that backs this idea up. I've wondered the same thing. I remember hearing Hugh Ross say he read the Bible and said that it taught that God was outside of time, which was something that may have contributed to his conversion. I was tempted to send him a question to...

If all motion is relative, then the geocentric model works, too. The math to calculation positions of planets is just more complicated I suppose. (Calculating such things is not my thing.) I did see a documentary that said the galaxies in the universe appeared to be arranged along...

He's got a mix of beliefs, many of which were previously held. For example, some of the Gnostics believed that Jesus did not rise bodily from the dead.

No, it says each man is to set aside money on the first day of the week. You misrepresent what he passage says: 8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. 9 For we know in...

Mattthew 28 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. 17And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. 18And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19Go ye therefore, and...

The Twelve were sent to the nations, also, before the ascension.

Where do you get that? Paul was an apostle, but he wasn't one of the Twelve... according to his own words in I Corinthians 15.

Instead of making pronouncements, why don't you look up what you are talking about. The Athenian government called government delegates it sent out 'Apostles' back during their days of dominating other cities. The word had a meaning BEFORE it showed up in the New Testament. Apostle means...

According to Acts 14:14, there were at least 14 apostles. Ironic isn't it. See also Acts 14:4. (Well, 15 at this point).

They want Kamala Harris to handle the nuclear codes.

@Bible_Highlighter None of your comments about Westcott and Hort or your concerns expressed about the modern Bible movement are in any way evidence for the idea that the King James version is a perfect inspired translation.

This is not evidence for KJV Onlyism. It may be evidence that the early Baptist movement might have been just a bit wonky.
