Discuss Romans 8 Page 26

Gerald,

It would take a lot of space to give you an answer to both these questions. I'll take question 1 and maybe someone else could help you out with the second question. John Chapter 8 is a very long chapter so I'll try and just give you a summary of the chapter unless you have specific questions on any of the verses in that chapter.

Verses 1-8 gives us the plot concerning the woman caught in adultery. Verses 12 through 20 gives us the proof of deity from witnesses. In verses 21 through 30, we see the perplexity over spiritual matters. And then in verses 31 through 59, we see the proof of conversion. If anyone wants proof that they are saved, just take a look at verse 31 which says, "If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed:"

Verse 58 is interesting. Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Literally, before Abraham was in existence, I was already in existence, and always have been, the I AM of the Old Testament! These Jews knew who Jesus was claiming to be. That's why verse 59 says they took up stones to cast at Him.

My biblical explanation of John 14:8-9:

In verse 8, Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. It's like we've been hearing about your Father for three years, so show Him to us. You would think that maybe one of them had a girlfriend that said "Are you going to take me home to introduce me to your father? I haven't seen him. I haven't met him yet. We have been listening to you talk about your Father and that you speak His words, not your words, and that it is Him working in you, so show us the Father. Bring Him out!"

Then Jesus says in verse 9 that if you have seen me, you have seen the Father. In John 10:31, Jesus said I and the Father are one. And He is leading into teachings now that are going to say the Father and I, we are going to make our abode in you. I am in the Father, the Father in me, and we are going to be in you. We are going to be all one!

Hi Gerald The answer to question number is found in Romans 10:9+10.

Gerald The most important answer to most of these is Romans 10:9+10 that's the beginning of the miracle of all miracles forgiveness of sins and you become a child of the most High God and receive holy spirit Gods gift Christ in you. it's the beginning of a new life. God Bless

Hello!, I'm going to go ahead and give a disclaimer, I'm NOT a typist or a literary guru or an English major. I do have a couple of questions that I hope someone can clarify for me. Question 1; Biblically explain to me John 8;58 and John 14:8-9. Question 2; How should we be Baptized? In the name of titles?( Matt. 28;19)? or in the Name of Jesus, Acts;2;38, Acts 10;48,or Acts 19;1-6? Thank you for your time, In Christ, Gerald.

Hi.

Part 1 of 2.

For our friends during their recovery we didn't depend on our own ability. We humbled ourselves and prayed and asked for prayer. We didn't demand anything or perform anything. WE PRAYED.

Now concerning Satan, There's several scripture that I keep in Mind.

Here's just a few.

1 John 4:4. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN YOU, THAN HE THAT IS IN THE WORLD.

James 4:6-7. But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

Submit yourselves therefore to God. RESIST THE DEVIL, and he will flee from you.

And

Romans 8:28-39.

Ephesians 6:11-18.

I don't quarrel with Satan if I do I relieved myself of my Armor.

I don't mimic what Jesus did When he said

Matthew 4:10. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

Jude 1:8-10. Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.

Jude 1:16-20. These are murmurers, complainers, WALKING AFTER THEIR OWN lusts; AND THEIR MOUTH SPEAKETH GREAT SWELLING WORDS, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.

But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

THESE BE THEY WHO SEPARATE THEMSELVES, SENSUAL, having not the Spirit.

But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,

Paul Some verses to help 2 Timothy 1:7, 1 John 3:1+2, God through Jesus Christ forgives and its available to have a clear conscience, just daily change habit patterns based on the word. Also 1 John 3:20-22, also Romans 8:28-39 or as the saying goes if God is for us who can be against us no one. We are on the winning team. God Bless

2nd Timothy chapter 2 vs 15 ,.. " study to show thyself approved unto God , a workman , ( or woman, no gender matters ) that needeth not to be ashamed, RIGHTLY dividing the word of TRUTH

I believe that a pastor or teacher of Gods word,.. can be a woman, just as much ( if not more at times ! ). There were many good women pastors an teachers, in the Bible,.. Debbie was definitely,. One to be told about,.. she not only taught, but she lead the army of Israel in to battle

Part 2:

Then given to hospitality. The word hospitality comes from a compound Greek word that means to love or be fond of strangers. This does not mean to pick up strangers off the street and invite them into your home. Back then, the believers who were traveling from out of town, they were referred to as strangers. And other believers were to show hospitality by opening up their homes and giving these other believers a place to stay.

And lastly, apt to teach. And it literally means have the ability to teach. An overseer, and especially a pastor, must be able to teach God's word. Not give to wine means don't even be associated with it. Filthy lucre means do not desire or be greedy of shameful gain. So a person who is put in a position of leadership in the church should not desire the material things of the world.

Verse 4 says one that ruleth well his own house. So this tells us that this is a man and he has to be married. Verse 6 says not a novice. Some interpret novice as a new believer. But the word for novice has to do with agriculture. It has to do with a sprout that is growing out of the ground. It's the condition of early seedlings popping the sprouts up. They're young in their growth. The root system hasn't developed yet, and the plant is not old enough to bear fruit or the flower.

So the scripture says not a novice, lest having been puffed up with pride he shall fall into the judgment of the devil, condemnation of the devil. There's nothing that Satan loves more than to see a believer in their weakness fall into sin, right up in front of everybody because they're a leader in the church. And what Satan does is he brings condemnation down on that person.

Linda,

The scripture does not make any mention of seminary school, but those going in the ministry should be well learned in the scripture before assuming such a role. Many go into the ministry often fail due to a lack of sound biblical knowledge. I would like to share what the biblical qualifications are for a pastor. I'll have to do this in two parts.

Part 1:

A pastor must meet the biblical qualifications. 1 Timothy 3:1-7 gives instruction concerning overseers (Pastors). The King James uses the word bishop. It is the word EPISKOPOS and it is where we get our word Episcopalian from. EPI is over, and SKOPOS means to scope or to see. So a pastor is an overseer.

In Acts Chapter 20, the overseer is also interchangeable with elder and with pastor. The overseer (Pastor) is responsible for the overseeing of the church to make sure it functions in the order that God has it in. But verses 1-7 gives us the qualifications of a pastor.

First of all, he must be blameless, which means unimpeachable. He must be the husband of one wife. This tells us that a pastor must be a man. The Greek text reads a little differently. It reads "a one woman man." He must be a one woman man, faithful!

He must be vigilant. That means attentive, to be watching, because Satan is always on the prowl. Then it says sober. This has to do with sober mindedness. It has nothing to do with alcohol or that type of sobriety. It means to have a frame of mind that thinks in wisdom and facts according to God.

Next: to be of good behavior. Some people would be eliminated right there. But good behavior comes from the Greek word KOSMION, like cosmetics, and it means to have an orderly lifestyle, disciplined and orderly.

Do you need to go to seminary school to be a pastor if GOD has call & anointed you.

Romans 8:28-39 gets inspirational also, 2 Peter 1:1-8, also 1 John 3:1+2 Let the Word do the Work.

Proscovia Romans 8:28-39 is a good start. Ephesians 1 whole chapter. 2 Peter 1: 1-8. Ephesians 3:16-21. God Bless give em heaven.

MG Yes it is but God will never put us in a situation we can't be delivered from 1 Corinthians 10:13. God can make a way where there is no way, he gave His son so you can be more than a conqueror Romans 8: 28-37. Start at Romans 10:9+10 and believe.

Ray You are in need of total change of focus mentally, In the old testament He sent His word and healed them and delivered them from their fears. Change your head change your life. Scriptures are light and life. Here's a few 2 Timothy 1:7, 2 Peter 2:24, John 14:12-14, also you must act on what the word of God says we have been given. I.E. Romans 5:1-9, Romans 8:28-39, 1 John 3:1+2, 1 John 3:20-22, 2 Peter 1:1-8, never focus the negative. Remember what you have been given was and is Gods good pleasure, and it blessed Him because He desired a family us, Ephesians 1: 1-11, so there get the light of the word in. I'll be praying for you.

Sarah Look this up and have fun, when the age of grace started it was the end of the law, therefore for the believer all days are sabbath or holy, my scripture Collosians 2: 16-23. I'm not saying don't go to Church or wherever you assemble with other christians im sharing that don't make it a legalistic thing mentally. We walk with God in our Hearts and in our minds. It's not where your at physically its where your heart and head is spiritually. and remember Romans 8: 28-39, and have a God Blessed Day.

Hi Kevin.

When we pray we humble ourselves and give honor to Gods Supreme Athority. You go to the Lord as your Heavenly Father.

You pray for his to be done.

And we pray in faith to God believing that he here's us. Often and everything.

Never borrow some super saints prayer, God wants to hear from YOU!! Not a script.

Here is 2 of many scriptures you may want to consider.

John 9:31. Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

Romans 8:28. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

God bless

Sissy, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

You will get two schools of thought on what happens to us at the death of our body of flesh.

I DON'T BELIEVE in a general rapture of the church; I BELIEVE we are gathered ONE BY ONE.

Isaiah 27:12

Matthew 24:40

I BELIEVE each believer is given HIS REWARD at the death of our body of flesh.

Our REWARD is ETERNAL LIFE and a BODY LIKE CHRIST. We become the IMAGE of Christ.

Colossians 1:15

Colossians 3:10

Romans 8:29

Every believer will receive the SAME REWARD; but different GLORIES.

Matthew 20:1-16

Romans 2:11

1 Corinthians 15:41

I BELIEVE when we leave our bodies of flesh we begin ruling and judging with Christ in the Kingdom of God.

Revelation 20:4

Obadiah 1:21

GBU

Sissy, may CHRIST IN US GRACE US with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

There are TWO deaths, TWO resurrections and TWO judgements.

The FIRST death was Christ's death on the cross, the FIRST resurrection was Christ resurrection and the FIRST judgement is the JUDGEMENTS (TRUTHS) of God's word.

God's WORD says WE (sinful flesh) died (first death, you died to Christ) on the cross with Jesus, we were RESURRECTED (first resurrection) with him and our life is HID in Christ, we are being JUDGED (first judgement) by the TRUTH of God's word NOW.

If you AGREE with this TRUTH and this TRUTH becomes a reality (LIFE) to you; you will be TRANSLATED to the LIKENESS of CHRIST at the death of this body of flesh and will never see death.

If this TRUTH does't become a reality to you; you will died and lay in the grave until the SECOND resurrection, SECOND death (you have to die to Christ), SECOND judgement (truths of God's WORD).

ALL MANKIND is going to become sons of God; but God does it in HIS time frame or in HIS different AGES.

Romans 8:19 For the earnest expectation of the creature (mankind) WAITETH for the manifestation of the sons of God (those in the first resurrection that are TRANSLATED into the LIKENESS of Christ and never see death).

Romans 8:21 Because the creature (mankind) ITSELF also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption (death and the grave, second resurrection) into the glorious LIBERTY of the children of God (second death and second judgement).

There is ONLY one LIFE and that LIFE is CHRIST

1 Timothy 6:15 Which in HIS times (ages) HE shall shew, who is the BLESSED and ONLY Potentate, the King of kings (those in HIS LIKENESS), and the Lord of lords (those in HIS LIKENESS);

1 Timothy 6:16 Who ONLY hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto .....

Mark 10:8 And they twain shall be ONE FLESH ...

Matthew 19:6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but ONE FLESH. What therefore God has joined together, let no man put asunder.

Just continuing with this brother & enjoying the exercises of knowledge & faith that you're giving me.

Various Scriptures (e.g. Romans 8:29, Colossians 1:15, Hebrews 12:23) speak of Christ being the "firstborn of creation & the firstborn of the Church". He was first to give birth to His creative work & by definition, entitled to be pre-eminent with highest honour & rank over all. And by virtue of His Death & Resurrection, the first to bring Deity & humanity together in one, i.e. to His Church, as He is now in the flesh as well.

Therefore, I would rather think that it's not the "DNA of Christ" that is in all atomic matter, but His Spirit Who was in Him & now given to those who call upon His Name. As we know, our composition is spirit, soul & body and that spirit has, since the fall, been devoid of any attachment to the Spirit of God. Yet, it is to that same spirit of man that the Holy Spirit attaches when re-birth has taken place. Then what we read in Acts 17:28, given to the unsaved Athenians, finds its perfect fulfilment in Romans 8:1, 1 Corinthians 1:30, Ephesians 1:3, etc., where once we were just the "offspring of God" receiving life & breath from God, but now, through Christ the firstborn of His Church, we receive spiritual life & the ministry of the Deity in manifold ways. I can't see that His 'DNA' is in all living creation, which after all, have been created from dust, but His Spirit is given to those coming to Him via the Cross.

I can agree though with your last paragraph concerning "the Lamb being slain from the foundation of the world". What was in God's Will to occur, will occur, & can be treated as fact even before they happen. Christ's crucifixion was real in God's Plan & became a physical reality at Calvary. Thank you Leon for sharing your thoughts.

Page 2.

Revelation 3:14. We see this expression ("the beginning of the creation of God") only here. I would include Colossians 1:15-18 which speaks of Christ being "the firstborn of all creation - for by Him were all things created - through Him & for Him". Even though the Greek for 'beginning' & 'firstborn' are very different, I think the same application is implied: that Christ is the Creator (the beginning) of all creation: both of the original creation & then being the forerunner of those IN Christ (the firstborn (& by implication, the Creator) of the new creation) - also Romans 8:29; Hebrews 12:23. Blessings.

The 70 th Week

Part 3

Jesus confirmed the last 3.5 years through His apostles ending when Stephen was killed, Paul was converted, Peter had his dream the conformation to Judah ended and the gospel was sent to the Gentiles. This fulfills the 70=weeks 490/483 years

We have been told to study, we are told to test the spirits, trust our teacher the Holy Spirit and pray. These are the six things that were determined on Judah and the holy city Jerusalem, a few verses that may help see if this has been fulfilled by Jesus.

1. To finish the transgression ( Isaiah 53:5, 8) ( Isaiah 53:11) ( Hebrews 9:15-18)

2. To make an end of sins ( Matthew 1:21) ( Hebrews 10:8-11) ( John 1:29) ( 1 Corinthians 15:3)

( 1 John 3:5) ( Psalm 32) ( Romans 8:3)

3. To make reconciliation for iniquity ( Colossians 1:20-22) ( Isaiah 53:6) ( Isaiah 53:11) ( Ephesians 2:16) ( Titus 2:14) ( 2 Corinthians 5:18-19)

4. To bring in everlasting righteousness ( Romans 5:17-21) ( Romans 3:21-26) ( 1Peter 2:24)

( 2 Corinthians 5:21) ( Isaiah 61:10-11)

5. To seal up vision and prophecy ( Daniel 9:23) ( John 6:27) ( Mark 1:14-15) ( Acts 3:18)

( John 5:36-40) ( Matthew 11:11-15)

6. To anoint the most holy ( Hebrews 8:1-12) ( Hebrews 9:6-14)

The 70 th week has been used along with other Bible verses to paint a fantastic picture of end times. The pre, mid, or post rapture of the Church, an antichrist, 7-year tribulation, 3.5-year covenant with Israel, a third temple, abomination of desolation, 3.5 years great tribulation after breaking covenant, and more. Many of these teachings started in the late 1600s. I hope this helps, if this prophecy has been fulfilled, it will show the falsehoods of these teachings because without using part of the 70 weeks prophecy given to Daniel, these teachings will fall apart.

Acts.3:18 But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.

which are the "Geneology scriptures?...please show!

This is precisely what cured me of every scar in my soul after I was born again. I loved my Dad with all my heart. He worked so hard that he was not really available to nurture his 5 rowdy children; plus one my mother adopted.

My life story is one of feeling " left behind the door", abandoned; later, betrayed repeatedly. I retreated into astrology to find out what was wrong with me. 15 years later I was adopted by God. $Happiest day of my life.

You are adopted fully and legally into the family of God, through Jesus. We don't have to tiptoe around, afraid he will ever say it was a mistake. He's a covenant God. I am my Beloveds; my Beloved is MINE. (Song of Solomon) He wrote that 3 times. The most powerful day of my life was when I read those verses in succession. I never felt passed over or rejected another day of my life. He is Mine and I'm never letting go. He is the Bridegroom. We have covenant with Him. Rest in these scriptures:

Psalms 27:10

When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.

Proverbs 18:14

The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?

Romans 8:15

For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. [God becomes your Daddy]

Ephesians 1:5

Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

Romans 8:16

The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

1 Corinthians 2:12

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

Ephesians 1

6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us ACCEPTED in the beloved. (Jesus)

Pass this along to anyone you meet who needs to know they are loved and accepted. He who wrote it is called, Faithful and True.

M.

Hi Larry.

Yes. And for the most part the Lord Speaks to us through his word.

and he sent his Spirit to. empower us and guide us.

Here's a few scriptures to consider.

Take these verses and put them into context by reading the whole chapter.

John 13:34-35. A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

This Love mentioned here is an act "CAUSED" by the Holyspirit!

1 Peter 2:2. As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:

2 Timothy 3:16-17. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

John 6:28-29. Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

1 Corinthians 2:12-13. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

1 Corinthians 2:12. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

Romans 8:14. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

Again Yes we should go to the Lord for guidance.

I hope that helps God bless.

Vickie,

If the end starts in our lifetime the teachings of the rapture of the Church to heaven, will have many not prepared for what is coming. ( Daniel 12:1) ( Matthew 24:29-31) ( Mark 13:24-27) tell us after the tribulation Jesus sends His angels to gather His elect, the second coming, not the third.

The great tribulation is confused with the wrath of God. We will be spared the wrath of God but we are not told we will be spared tribulation, ( Acts 14:22) ( Romans 8:35) (2 Thessalonian 1:4). When the end starts and the things that scripture tells us that is coming, I feel many that trust in this teaching will lose their faith because they are still here.

"But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved".

All the saints before, and what they had to endure, burning at the stake, crucifixion, beheadings, fed to lions, and more. Are we better or more worthy than they, to be spared? Do we exalt ourselves above those who came before us? Christians are still today being killed.

1 Thessalonians 4: 16-17 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

This verse is said shows we meet Jesus and are taken to heaven. Is anywhere in this verse where our destination is? Does this verse say we go to heaven? How can we assume something that is not written? Does being carried to heaven line up with the other scriptures about Jesus's second coming? Where are the chosen told they will reign, heaven or earth?

Millions of dollars have been made from this theory.

2 Peter 2:3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

May we walk and be led by the Holy Spirit of truth.

RLW

Lex,

You seem to be a lot more versed than you originally appeared. You have a lot more to give than to receive!!

I would like to add a thought rather than a verse because I believe Jesse has given

excellent scriptures and I couldn't improve on that.

YOU ABSOLUTELY CAN AND WILL LOOSE SALVATION IF YOU'VE EARNED IT,

Once you have it you better be perfect in order to keep it! Because Gods sacrificial Lamb was perfect. It's not just your actions that will be tested with fire!! God judges the Heart and the intent of Man, the thoughts also. And there is no more sacrifice. The works of the Law could never make one Perfect. And you have to Remain PERFECT. We have nothing to offer the Lord by the flesh. We worship the Lord in truth and in spirit and the only way we can do that is by the Holyspirit, That's what we call the inner Man, And it's at constant war with our flesh because the flesh is weak, God will judge the secrets of man, Craftiness and dishonesty, Lusts, Anger without a cause, doubt.

I will give you another that's hard to control, "Pride" SIN is inward as well outward!!

Certainly a Christian have a life change in his walk of life once converted but NOT to the degree where he can say move out the way Holyspirit I got it from here!!

We submit ourselves to the Lord and let the spirit guide us and when we do well ALL GLORY TO GOD!

We are Clothed in Christ righteousness! We are hidden in Christ!

We walk by faith! ( Even that's given to us)

We are predestinated.

Again the sacrifice was perfect, So if it's up to us to remain perfect then you better be!! From here on out!!

If you can loose salvation I'm sure this comment is going to cause some people to do so. But if you're saved you shouldn't worry.

Romans 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, NOR ANY OTHER CREATURE, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ JESUS.

WE'RE CREATURES, WE CAN'T EVEN SEPARATE OURSELVES!!!

Lets Just be sure we have it.

God bless and Goodnight.

Brother Jesse Tacker, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding. Hebrews 1:3 Who (Christ) being the brightness of his (the Father's) glory, and the express image of His (the Father's) person, and upholding all things by the word of his (the Father's) power, when he (Christ) by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the majesty on High. Revelation 3:14 ....The beginning of creation.... Christ was the FIRST MAN and he is GOD. The beginning (the first man) and the ending (the last man). Psalms 82:6 I (God) have said, Ye are gods, the children of the most high. John 10:34 Jesus answered them, is it not WRITTEN in your law, I said, Ye are gods? John 10:35 If he called them gods, unto whom (CHRIST IN YOU) the word of God came unto; and the scripture cannot be broken; Christ is CREATING Sons of God; exactly like him, when he is finished we will be gods just as he is. Romans 8:29 ....To be conformed to the IMAGE of his Son .... Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be IN YOU which was ALSO IN Christ Jesus, who being in the form of God thought it not robbery to be EQUAL WITH GOD. The saints cannot rule and judge the world without being EXACTLY like God. Isaiah 32:1 Behold a king shall reign in righteousness, and princes shall rule in judgement." View & Reply
