Exodus Chapter 20 Discussion Page 2

David welch on Exodus 20 Throughout Gods word there are alwaystwo Great commandments which always hold

true ander the patriarchs the law and grace. Mathew 22:35-40. Thy neighbor is a friend in context and the same

applied all throughout the old testament. Romans 12:17-21.

Hello David In the gospel of Mathew the Royal law applies here in 37-40 the second half love thy neighbor

as thyself, the word neighbor if friend. The word neighbor in Exodus is friend or companion and is used 13 times

the idea is we walk according to Gods rules with all and then God will deal with it. That's my understanding

In Romans 12:18-21 is our rule in the Church.

In exodus,, the law clearly states,; There is to be no coveting or barring false witnesses against a neighbor.

Without stating it, the passages implies it is permissible to covet and bare false witness

against a stranger. Why else would the word neighbor be used?

Amen Brother Jesse.

Thanks!

God bless you and all you do.

Hi Jesse Good Stuff!

Sherri,

Ephesians 5:25-29 says "Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;"

What is he saying? Christ sacrificed Himself for the spiritual wellbeing of the church. As a Christian man, if you're going to get married, your life is a sacrifice to make sure your wife and your children get to the word and the things of Christ. The comparison is that even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it.

There are two things listed. First, in verse 26, it says "That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word." That's what Jesus did so that's what I'm to do. And secondly in Verse 27, "That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

How much of a spiritual concern do we men have for our families and for our wives, that one day she'll stand before the Lord? Will she be complete? And then the conclusion in verse 28, "So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself." Uh Oh! He that loves his wife loves himself.

Verse 29 says "For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:" In case you haven't noticed that about men, we like to be men, you know? But no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourishes it and cherishes it, even as the Lord does the church:

In 1 Peter chapter 3, it speaks about wives being in submission to their husbands. But husbands are also to submit to their wives as we see in 1 Peter 3:7. The reason I say this is because the first word in verse 7 says "likewise." So as the wife is to be in submission to her husband, likewise, the husband also is to be with the wife. For the believer, submission is never between two people. There's always three. We are to submit to one another in the Lord! If the other person is out of line, the we are to remain in submission to Christ!

In reference to The Holy Bible KJV, please specify the role/responsibilities of the Husband to his Spouse in God's eyes & including scripture? (book, chapter and verse) Thank You In Advance!

Sandy,

If you google about the type of altar God accepts, you will find that He instructed His people to make altars of unhewn stones. He did not want any "tooled" altars. (man made bricks, carved, engraved, etc.) This is probably a connection to the commandment to not make any graven images. Most likely, altars of pagans were engraved with icons and images of deities and symbols of their pagan religions. Also, perhaps He instructed this way so that the people would know that they could make an altar of stones anywhere and anytime. They would not have to travel to a temple or place of worship. They could worship God anytime, anywhere, in any circumstance.

Hi Sandy Most Alters or symple places of worship were just made of stone literally large rocks that no tools were used at certain locations where a Godly event took place. There are also times when these alters were made and either individuals or

the people gathered together to commit something to God. Basically swearing by the alter. In the Book of 1 Kings

18:21 is the start of a fantastic record of God by a prophet bringing His people back to Him By a Miracle. There was an

altar on mount Carmel and Elijah called all the people together and said tell you what lets set up the altar and prepare

a sacrifice and the prophets of baal or satan can call on their god and if he burns the sacrifice no matches he's god, but if I call on the Lord thy God and if He burn's it up then worship him. So 850 worships of baal prayed all day almost no

fire, and they were so angry they were cutting themselves and wrecked the altar. Then Elijah instructed the people exactly how to reassemble it and

fried some heads when He ordered 4 barrels of water poured over the whole sacrifice until it was soaked prayed to the

God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob for fire to come down and it cane down from heaven and burn't the offering the wood and stone, end result 850 prophets of baal were slaughtered, and the people for a while turned back to Jehovah.

That's a situation of swearing by a sacrifice. Complete story 1 Kings 18:17-40. Good Stuff

what exactly does that mean to make a alter of earth onto the lord

I am visualizing a beautiful place in the woods but I could well be missing the meaning

Precious Judith: "The Bible says to remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy!" = TRUE! people: "He did not say that the Sabbath is for Jews but for mankind!":

God: "Speak thou also unto the children of ISRAEL, saying, Verily my SABBATHS ye shall keep: for it is a SIGN between Me and you throughout YOUR generations; that YE may know that I AM The LORD that doth sanctify YOU." Exodus 31:13 God TO Israel:

Why are you people not being obedient to God? God said he that worship me must worship me in Spirit and truth! = TRUE, for ISRAEL, In PROPHECY!!

Rightly Divided ( 2 Timothy 2:15) From "Things That DIFFER!":

There is NO ISRAEL today, Only The Body Of CHRIST, Under GRACE, According to the preaching Of JESUS CHRIST, According to The REVELATION Of The MYSTERY (Romans - Philemon) What Does God Say TO Paul, in liberty and freedom, for the Body Of CHRIST?:

God: "Who art thou that judgest...One man esteemeth one day above another: ANOTHER ESTEEMETH EVERY DAY ALIKE. Let EVERY man BE FULLY PERSUADED in his own mind. He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto The LORD; and he THAT REGARDED NOT the day, TO THE LORD he doth not regard it...But WHY dost thou JUDGE thy brother?

...we shall ALL Stand before THE JUDGMENT SEAT of CHRIST.For It Is Written, As I live, Saith The LORD, every knee shall bow to ME, and every tongue shall confess to God.

So then EVERY ONE of us shall give account of himSELF TO God...Let us NOT THEREFORE JUDGE ONE ANOTHER ANY MORE:..." Please Carefully/Prayerfully Read/RE-read ALL of Romans 14:4-13

God: "Let NO man therefore JUDGE you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an HOLYDAY, or of the SABBATH days: Which are A SHADOW of things to come; but the body is of CHRIST!" Colossians 2:16-17

Thus, we DON'T JUDGE "sabbath" keepers, as we, FULLY PERSUADED with the Mind Of CHRIST, worship/REST In CHRIST, The TRUE {Sabbath} REALITY 24/7. God Is CLEAR!

Please be richly Encouraged, Exhorted, and Encouraged In CHRIST, And HIS WORD OF TRUTH, Rightly Divided!!

Sister Judith,

Yes, God wants us "his children" to keep all of his commandments, including the Sabbath which is the 4th commandment.

Jesus and his disciples kept all of God's commandments while here on this earth.

God gave us a wonderful gift in the Sabbath Day, enabling us to rest our minds, and bodies, and time to pray and contemplate God, and all that we have. God knows us best.he created us!

Here Jesus reminds us that the Sabbath Day is for us.

Mark 2:27

"And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:"

I can not understand why anyone would want to disregard this commandment.

I will strive to keep all of God's 10 commandments.

God Bless.

I just read from your Bible on line the book of Exodus 20:4-11 The Bible says to remember the Sabbath Day to keep it holy! Why are you people not being obedient to God! He said if you love me keep my commandments!! God said the Sabbath is "my holy day". He did not say that the Sabbath is for Jews but for mankind! No where in the Bible does God mentioned that He changed the Sabbath to Sunday! God said he that worship me must worship me in Spirit and truth!

Jesus history

Talakayala Which part are you referring to and why theological version.

Bible history and theological version

I was doing my own study of one of the ten commandments;the one that talks about honer thy father and mother. After further studies I understand that the word honer was referencing to more than just respect and obedience, when it has mostly to do with taking their consultation and making their life easier as they age. By doing so we were promised a long fulfilled life. Basically Take care of your Parents While God takes care of Us All. That is what the Holy spirit gave me

Amen!

For any who are looking at theories on how it ends. There is a fantastic picture that has been painted and taught since the early 1800s and is taken from Daniel 9:27 to create the last week (7 years). The entire theory and all that is taught that will happen hinges on taking the last week/7 years from this 70-week prophecy.

This prophecy was determined on Daniel's people (house of Israel) and the holy city (Jerusalem).

Daniel 9:24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

If Jesus fulfilled what was determined in this prophecy, does that make this entire theory and all that is taught in this theory untrue?

How will it change the picture if the 70th week in the book of Daniel has been fulfilled?

What is our blessed hope?

We have been told to study, trust our teacher the Holy Spirit and pray.

These are the six things that were determined, and a few verses that may help your study.

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)

One God , one Head over all and that's God Clearly seen .

The first commandment is way more direct and specific. And the highest law .

You would lose your case on that ground alone .

The Godhead are United and agree in purpose.

Romans 1:20

Greetings brother Ron. If I was an attorney for the befuddled, I would win every flawed Bible case. The confusion needs to be overlooked because no one wants to admit how error riddled it is. I'm not here to trash it, but tell you that I enjoy studying these editing anomalies. It is pure human error in prose.

In this case, dissect Genesis 3:22

22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us. us = plural

God Bless

Verse 3 thou shalt have no other gods before me .

The very first commandment.

Why did The Lord not say us ?

Because He is the only one God .

The KJV bible references the cross a total of 28 times in the NT, I find no reference to stake, and also to fulfill John 3:14 he would have needed to be lifted up on a cross. I hope this helps.

John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

Matthew Chapter 27:38-41 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.

And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads, And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross. Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,

Mark 15:32 "Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him."

Hi Bob.

I've heard good arguments for both,

Important thing is what his dying meant to us.

God bless

Did Jesus die on a stake or a cross

Joyce king,

In Matthew Chapter 16, Jesus asked the same question that you are asking. Jesus asked His disciples who do people say I am. The disciples gave several answers to this question. This was the public opinion about who Jesus was. People had different opinions about who He was. And then after the disciples gave the public opinion, Jesus asked them, but who do you say I am. You see, now it's personal.

Peter gave the most perfect response as to who Jesus is. Peter said "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God." Please keep in mind that Peter was Jewish. And for a Jew to say that someone was the Son of the living God, that is the same as calling that person God Himself.

Every one of us will have to give our own personal response to the question of who we believe Jesus is!

Who did people believe Jesus Was

Hi Lacey,

We are to restore one another, and

We keep ministering to the lost, we are to be the light to tge world and you let your light shine with your walk, the word and much prayer.

Here is a few scriptures may help ,

Isaiah 55:11. So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

""WE trust and believe in the power of God's word ""

James 5:19-20. Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him;

Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.

The bible tells us not to condemn, BUT IT DOESN'T SAY NOT TO JUDGE,

How do you try to help someone if you can't speak against what they're doing wrong?

Consider Galatians 6:1 When ministering.

Galatians 6:1. Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

Galatians 6:8-9. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

2 Timothy 4:2. Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.

Your walk going forward is important, be sure there is nothing present n your life they can use against you,

Don't let no one preach to you God is Love and sin don't matter!!

God's word is important, prayer is important, Be consistent in all 3,

your blameless walk,

The word of God

And prayer.

God bless you.
