Hi Brother Rick.

I find this astonishing.

Jeremiah 5:22. Fear ye not me? saith the LORD: will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?

God bless.

Welcome to the site Catherine.

God bless.

Hi Kimberlee.

I believe you are referring to this verse.

1 Timothy 2:11-14.

I believe that refers to Pastoring the Church. " Where men and women gather in a group setting".

I don't think this is necessarily the church building, If the building was destroyed the church still exists in the gathering of the people. In 1 Corinthians it mentions Churches. "Plural" perhaps meaning, where ever they gather.

1 Corinthians 14:33-36. For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all "CHURCHES" of the saints.

Let your women keep silence in the "CHURCHES": for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.

And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.

What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?

That doesn't say they don't minister or teach other women.

Titus 2:3-4. The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, TEACHERS of good things;

That they may TEACH the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,

I don't think it's because they can't teach.

When you look at 1 Corinthians 14:1-40.

It seems it's to keep things orderly is the context. And then It may have more to do with Genesis 3:16. Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; "AND THY DESIRE SHALL BE TO THY HUSBAND," and he shall rule over thee.

Some say this is to rule over.

My assertion is speculative.

God bless.

catherine The kjv is my go to i don't read any other God bless in your studies.

dear Chris Thank you thank you !!

I really liked your last reply.. you are right , no one can turn our belief just becouse they said something other than what you already believe..yeah and we can't change theirs..I'm not really trying to assert my beliefs on anyone...I am just glad to find this KJV Bible study site ..and all the comments are focusing on God and the KJV Bible !! AND every verse on the study program match up word for word with my personal Bible !!! do you know how hard that is to find !! The internet is some help but one time I put in a question "what is the most easy/accurate/ Bible version to read" ..and the answer was "New World Translations"..& I thought ..."Well Google is wrong" ..lets go find another source...I know about that religion and I don't care to compare my cherished KJV "HOLY BIBLE" with theirs...it's useless and could try to confuse me...I am a Christian not a JW...anyway sorry if anyone sees my comment and are offended by my comment or belief..or convictions..

Thank you Chris :)

Thank you for sharing your wonderful website with us! God is so good and I'm thankful. Prayers for your sick one and God bless always!

Thanks Catherine, for sharing more of yourself, past & present. It's certainly encouraging for us to read of you being 'in Christ' for just a short time & of the hunger you have for His precious Word. As the saying goes, 'the one who has been forgiven much, loves much'; taken from Luke 7:37-50, esp verse 47 (the woman lost in sin who sought Jesus' forgiveness & demonstrated her sorrow for her lifestyle & love for the Lord).

Indeed, this KJBO Site has much to offer, & particularly giving us the opportunity to have solid Christian fellowship around God's Word. We're not always in agreement on everything (then again, who is?), but we are focussing our hearts & minds on that which really matters: the Word of God, getting to know Him better, & building one another up in union with the Spirit's ministry in our hearts, and not on the fickle mundane things that occupy the world's minds. So, keep coming back here & sharing in our conversations & whatever is on your heart.

Kimberlee 2 Corinthians 9 The biggest reason I understand scripturally is originally God gave women to

be a helpmeet or walk with her man so they both would operate to there full potential. If it would be done

according to Gods standards Ephesians 5:21-31 then everything works to Gods glory. That being said I

see great women of God that took a stand or ministered in a temple which is different then a Gift Ministry.

So Gods best standard is whats stated in the Timothy epistles for ordination not saying a women can't

teach or instruct the gospel message but that's different than ordination.

Hello,

What in particular did you want to discuss about this account of Cain and Abel?

OUCH !!! There were ,.. an still are , many great women,.. that teach , an have taught the word of God ,.. an they are most certainly, able an do a fine job,.. it is written, an he uses all his sons & daughters

Peace

actual birthdate somewhere around sept 11th 3bc. look it up it fits biblically when researched with His Star.

Kimberlee,

If you are talking about a woman pastoring a church, I would say that a woman is not to fulfil the role of a pastor ( 1 Timothy 2:12-14). A woman does not meet the biblical qualifications of that role, neither can she serve in that capacity where she would be in a position of authority over the man in the church.

1 Timothy 3:2 gives the qualifications of an overseer, or bishop. This would also apply to a pastor as he is an overseer in the church. But it says that an overseer/bishop (Pastor) must be the husband of one wife and be able to properly manage his own household before he can run a church. The husband of one wife as a qualification would rule out a woman being a pastor. Disclaimer: (If you live in California where I do, this would be debatable).

But the biblical teaching and qualifications of who and what a pastor should be would rule out women pastors. I know this is probably going to cause some strife with some but I have to stick with what I understand the scripture to say on the matter unless I'm persuaded otherwise.

Hopefully I have not offended you or anyone else!

Hi Anja,

We had a conversation on this subject a week or so ago. I am not sure if the posts are still up, but you can check.

Some sources think that it was around September 14/15 at the beginning of a Jewish New Year. Others say it may have been May or June. Others have said early Spring. I wish we could know for sure. It would sure settle a lot of things. But perhaps it was not recorded in Scripture for a reason, since surely Mary, who was with the disciples on Pentecost and after, knew exactly when He was born (mothers never forget!).

Historical records show that His birth was celebrated in December around the solstice in the 2nd or 3rd century A.D. but it was not widespread until a few centuries later.

Jesse That's the reason why the church of pentecost could not have started in the gospels because Jesus Christ

was not glorified yet and the holy spirit was not given yet and again He not any man is going to build His Church

in like manner he will return to gather his body us Who believe the Gathering together. By the way nice additional

details scripturally.

Dear Chris... Thank you sooo much for your reply on my question...yes I will take all that you said into concentration..yes I have found the comment section..I was up all night reading through different sections..switching back and fort from my Bible study and taking "Trivia" tests on the kjv Bible here in the trivia selection... yeah I really like this site it has alot to offer...thank you for your input...Yes I did find out through living for God that people think we're crazy.but thats OK..I think they are crazy too..for continuing to smoke drugs and drink alcohol and fornicating..I don't put them down for it becouse that is exactly how I was too..I was in the world,sinning like everyone else and on my way to hell..I have turned from my sin and quit all the above..I am still in the world but not of the world..meaning I have turned toward God only and given up the sinful pleasures that only satisfy for a short time.. it may sound easy but it is something everyone has to do to go to Heaven..to turn from their sins.. I'm not here to preach to anyone here or argue..I am a beginner and have alot to learn..I have only been saved less than 6 months.so I am not any authority on how we are supposed to worship God. I am here to LEARN ..Thank you for your message, I feel better at ease.I really like the Trivia questions, it makes me feel good when I get 100% and I LEARN from it when I get a question wrong.THIS IS A REALLY GOOD SITE !!

Catherine

For me, I think about saying, Lord Jesus, I can't, but I believe You can. So be it.

Thanks Noel, I was just reading that yesterday.

Jesus to Peter,

Very well said! Matthew 16:18 is one of the great verses in the bible, and probably one of the most debated verse in the bible, so we'll just skip it. No, just kidding! I would like to give a little extra thought on what you mentioned. Jesus says thou art PETROS (referring to Peter), and upon this PETRA (referring to Himself), I will build my church. You have properly stated the meaning of PETROS and PETRA, one being a small stone (Peter), and the other being a massive stone or foundational slab (Christ).

But here's something I find fascinating in this section of scripture. Where Jesus says thou art Peter, the word "this" in "upon this rock," that's what is called in Greek the Near Demonstrative. What that means is that Jesus was pointing to Himself when He said upon this rock.

But something else I find interesting is that when Jesus said I will build my church, I see two things in the phrase "I will build my church." First of all, He says "I will build." And secondly, He says "My church." Did you catch that? It is the Lord's church. He is still the head of the church.

But I also kind of regress for a moment, because notice that He says "I" will build my church. Some people think that this is our job to build the church. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it is not our job!

It says at the end of Chapter 2 in the book of Acts that the disciples (The new believers), they would get together and study the doctrine of the apostles, and pray and break bread together, and the (Lord added) to the church daily such as should be saved. It is His church. It is His work. He does it. We are the only the instruments.

Again, amen to what you shared. I completely agree and just wanted to add some of my own thoughts on the subject.

Hi Jake, I am not sure that this has been completely fulfilled yet. Israel is re-established as a nation, but there as not been widespread repentance and conversion among the Israelites-both Jews and other tribes. They have not ALL been gathered back from all ends of the earth yet. So, I think that this will be fulfilled near the end times or during the 1000 year reign of Christ.

Faith, I agree. I believe the church began with Jesus' ministry at the time of His baptism when He called his first disciples. At Pentecost, the church existed already with the apostles and disciples gathered there in obedience to Jesus instructions. Jesus, before is ascension, before Pentecost, re-taught His disciples all that He had taught them before His crucifixion and resurrection. He opened up the Scriptures from the books of Moses' on to that present time to teach them about Himself. He was teaching His church at this time. He prayed for them at His Last Supper. They were the church then, breaking bread with him and drinking the wine of Communion. The church started with Jesus during His life on earth, in my opinion.

Gigi, you are right. I googled fatling and it can be a lamb.

fatling

ftlng

noun

A young animal, such as a lamb or calf, fattened for slaughter.

A lamb, kid, or other young animal fattened for slaughter; a fat animal: applied to quadrupeds the flesh of which is used for food.

A calf, lamb, kid, or other young animal fattened for slaughter; a fat animal; -- said of such animals as are used for food.

The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition.

Catherine, I am glad to hear that you attend a church that, like so many others we attend, is vibrantly following Jesus, our Lord. God is building is church throughout the ages. Everyone in Christ is different in as far as fellowship needs and I believe that God does draw each of us into the fellowship where we can grow and contribute.

Yes this is the Scripture reference for this common phrase. But it does say that the calf and the young lion and the fatling together. Maybe the fatling is a lamb.

Good day, Lynn

To answer your question, no, God's eye cannot be in a place where His presence is not. But as I have said before, He really does not have eyes or a body. these terms were used in the Bible so we, as humans can understand Him better, since in His pure Spirit, He is incomprehensible. In using such terms he his condescending to our perspective to reach us, since we cannot reach Him in our own creatureliness.

Claudette A few small things I consider miracles, no two snow flakes are alike! Every star in all the constellations

have specific God Given names. Certain sea shells have the sound of an echo chamber like waves coming out of them.

All tidal waves around the world are run by earths seasonal rotation and the sound of waves is very peaceful and

soothing to mans mind. There is a caterpillar in Alaska that in winter its body literally freezes and in spring thaw comes

back to life! We should always be in absolute awe and respect of our Fathers Handiwork the greatest of these being

His Perfect Word.

Hi Donna.

Malachi 3:16. Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance WAS WRITTEN BEFORE HIM FOR THEM THAT FEARED THE LORD, AND THAT THOUGHT UPON HIS NAME.

THEM THAT FEARED THE LORD AND

THAT THOUGHT UPON HIS NAME!!.

When you put it context with verses 1-15 you see the proud and wicked of Jacob "Israel" tempt God and think that they could get by with it.

Malachi 3:1-15.

Here in verse 16 I think you have a remnant that feared the LORD and thought/Considered the LORD in service.

16) Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it.....

And a book of remembrance was written of them.

FOR THEM THAT FEARED THE LORD, AND THAT THOUGHT UPON HIS NAME

God bless
