    This is for Nabeel. If you study it out you'd find that Jesus spent 3 days and 3 nights amongst man.The clutches of the world before he started suffering for our sins. As far as your comment in Ezekiel, you forgot to keep it in context. when you read on you'll find "But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die." Ezekiel 18:21
    Also for you Romans 5:8
    But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, CHRIST DIED for us.
    God Bless

    This is for mel. in John 19:30-37 these words from an eye witness. not from jesus christ (PBUH). but if u read Matthew 12:38-40, these words utter by jesus christ (PBUH) him self. john says that the soldier found jesus christ (PBUH) was dead according to him. But in gospel st. matthew Jesus christ (PBUH) says that his sign was jonah's (PBUH) sign. as jonah (PBUH) was alive in the belly of the wahale, Jesus Christ (PBUH) also alive the heart heart of the earth. now you decide who is speaking the truth. Jesus (PBUH) or the eye witness.
    and the second thing is, no any person can pay for others sin. "The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him" ezekiel (18:20).

    This is for Nabeel. If you read John19:30-37 you would see that Jesus did die and so yes there is resurrection. He did this for you and for me because we are sinners and can't possibly pay for all we've done
  • Nabeel on Matthew 12 - 14 years ago
    Jonah (PBUH) was alive in the belly of the whale for three days. he didn't die. to fulfill the prophecy, Jesus (PBUH) also should be alive in the tomb for thee days. for a person to resurrect, he should die. if the death is not taking place, where is the question for resurrection. in this verse ( Matthew 12:38-40) Jesus (PBUH) confirms that he didn't die and he didn't resurrect. my Christian brothers cant understand this simple English in this King James version.

    Lie to GOD you shall be forgiven. Lie to HIS SON JESUS and ask forgiveness and you shall be forgiven. But, lie to the HOLY GHOST and you shall not be forgiven (verses 31-32 all so ACTS 5 1-10

    wesley is also correct because a man seeing the powerful works at hand would have to take a stand with christ or against christ. the pharisees chose against and took stand to slander christ but the work was of his father. Christ: for it is not i who speak but my father who has spoken though me. in no scholar but this seems pretty clear to me
  • Glenda on Matthew 12 - 14 years ago
    I love to study GOD'S WORD.VERSES 3-4 JESUS spoke of David. I went to 1Samuel 21/1-6. I noticed that the priest required David's abedience of the law from David and his men before he was allowed to eat the shew bread. On this side of the cross JESUS'S WORD is LAW. verse 34b "out of the abundance of the heart the mouth seaketh" We need to make sure that we don't have (heart trouble.)
  • Nabeel on Matthew 12 - 14 years ago
    As Jonah was three days and three nights in the whale, and then came out again alive, thus Christ would be so long in the grave, and then rise again.
    # Jonah (PBUH) did not die in the belly of the whale according to the book of jonah. so where is the question for "coming out alive again". he didn't risn from the dead.

    Gwen,

    The Queen of the South is Sheba (iKings10:1-13) She sought wisdom and truth and was satisfied when instructed by Solomon about the one true God of Israel. Jesus, the only begotten Son of God, is greater than Solomon and thus deserves more respect and attention to his words. The chapter shows the self-righteous wanting to ignore God in the flesh in their presence and condem him for not following their rules. For that they will be judged. Is Jesus only a man, only a prophet, only a teacher? He is the savior/Messiah come to die for the sins of the world. Did he die for you and pay for your sins? Do you know "about" him or is he your personal saviour? The self-righteous couldn't recognize him, can you?

    Ms Gwen,
    This verse(42), is another parable spoken by Jesus, to try to tell us in a picture, using words, how to become ready for His coming.
    She(the Queen), is any woman, whom at that time
    of Moses heard throughly and searched from "the outermost parts of the earth", to gain all the wisdom of Solomon, and... because that was the primary focus of her life, she as "any woman" was able to make judgement on the World,condemn it and SEE JESUS!!.....Vs.42 ....."behold, a greater than Solomon is here." (Jesus)
    Any woman, including you, can become, Queen of the South, if You believe on Him, search both Gospels for the wisdom of Solomon, and go to the ends of the earth if need be, to keep Jesus and his words, FIRST in your life. You too, can judge the world, and condemn the sins that you see, thus seeing Jesus, as HE IS COMING AGAIN!
    ( not my words, go to Lk.11/31, and Matthew Henry's commentary )
    Do not be discouraged if you still do not understand. The "Queen", had to search the world. Now we can pray directly to Jesus for undestanding, and we're still washed of our sins, in our lifelong search for Him on this earth. Then, by Grace only,we are Heaven bound. God bless. Ya'll, please pray for Pam. Come back to us...
  • Gwen on Matthew 12 - 14 years ago
    Can someone please explain to me what this means? I am studing the word and wnat to understand.
    42The queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and, behold, a greater than Solomon [is] here.

    Thank Jesus for Mr. Matthew's, " His mother and bretheren stood without, desiring to speak with him,when they should.....desiring to hear him."
    The Holy Spirit has ordained me for more than a decade, and my "preparation" is now illustrated as merely an excuse to not walk in the door as Christ prepared me. I MUST take this knowledge and grace and fearlessly enter the door, and prayerfully do his work, as is written in scripture. Thank you Jesus, your will be done.
    I will prepare, and serve more... Richard
  • Pam on Matthew 12 - 14 years ago
    thank you for your reply to my past coment. this site keeps me suprised in its earnest to meet the needs of sinners and eplaining Christ's mission.
    I liked the illustration of the withered hand representing our human weakness. Mathew Henry's reference to Christ's love is always so special and touching. I appreciated reading that repetence isa gift Christ offers us.
