452: Bible Help to Fight Temptations!
... In Paul's own words it is "common to man". The temptations which you may now face are not unique. The same kind of temptation has been faced and successfully overcome by thousands of other people and this passage points out that we are merely fooling ourselves if we believe it cannot be overcome in our own lives as well. 4. Fourth - we learn that a knowledge of the word of God and a love for it are the keys to resisting temptation in our lives just as it was in the life of Jesus. 5. Fifth - our efforts to resist temptation will always be rewarded if we respond in keeping with the teachings of the scriptures. The Bible says, "Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" (James 4: 7). If you are facing some special temptation at this time, think over these basic teachings of the Bible and realize that, with God's help, you can overcome this problem. One of Satan's most effective methods is to make us feel that the situation is hopeless, when in reality it never is. Click to View Go To ... ...

455: History of the Chinese Language
... was on the face of the deep... Then God said, 'Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness... (Genesis 1:1-2, 26) Emperor Shun was making this recital in 2230 BC, in the 23rd century BC. Moses didn't write Genesis until sometime in the 15th century BC! These two cultures (Chinese & Hebrew) had no connection to one another. Moses did not learn the Chinese language and turn it into a story about creation. Neither did Shun possess a copy of the Genesis record, for it hadn't been written yet. One might think it to be a coincidence, but as we will see through the volume of material available, there is a certain link between the pre-Babel record of Genesis and the same information as seen in the etymology of the Chinese language. by William J.

458: The Bible & How to Solve Family problems!
Too often, others are not listening with sufficient attention to notice the needs of others. It is not always wise to "smooth things over". There are worse situations than conflict: hidden resentments are worse; silent bitterness is worse; hypocrisy is worse. When the Apostle Paul had a grievance against Peter, he "withstood him to the face" (Galatians 2:11-14). More face-to-face frankness in the right spirit would help many a parent-child relationship and many a marriage. In Matthew 18:15-17, ... we are not perfect. Rather, we receive the other with sympathy and unconditional love. When a person finds that he is accepted, he is able to grow into an increasingly meaningful and strengthening dialogue.

In doing so, you will build a family circle which cannot be broken. Click to View Go To Start: WWW.BIBLE.CA ...

It is not solid study to build an entire system of beliefs about the end of the world, and the status of the kingdom on such a highly symbolic passage. More especially when that interpretation conflicts with other plain passages of scripture. In a book that is highly symbolic, we face certain difficulties accepting a theory of a thousand year reign of Jesus on earth, when we consider the total view of the book. There are some things not mentioned in this chapter. First, it does not mention the second coming of Christ. Second, it does not mention a ... The victory came in the spirit world, God assured their victory. The passage also mentions the first resurrection, which is in contrast with the second death. The point is not that the righteous is raised a thousand years before the wicked, for a physical reign on earth, but that the cause of Christ for which the martyrs died is triumphant.

474: Does Jesus have a human body NOW?
The only other counter argument was that Jesus had a body of "flesh and bone" without any blood that is different from the "flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom" Cor 15. We feel such a distinction is very week and that taking "flesh and bone" at face value to mean "ordinary human body" is both the obvious and natural interpretation. These two arguments removed, our initial view that the resurrected body of Jesus was identical in nature to his pre-resurrected body is sustained. To further prove this we notice finally that the description of Jesus body ... Just as a fallen saint can be forever considered an adopted child of God by virtue of having actually experienced the new birth even though they no longer possess the attributes of children of God, SO TOO Jesus can be considered a MAN/HUMAN once for all time by virtue of having actually experienced physical birth as a man, even though NOW Jesus possesses none of the actual attributes of humanity.

For various reasons many young people run away. Often, they are seeking a solution to some kind of problem or they have allowed someone else, who also wants to run away, to influence them. Most young people do not realize the dangers and temptations that they face. Runaway girls are often like sheep among wolves. There is plenty of male companionship, perhaps a free meal and a temporary place to stay, but the girl must pay the price. In many cases the price is the sacrificing of her moral ... illustrated man leaving God and seeking to fulfill the lusts of his flesh. The downward road of sin always leads one to be in want and in a deprived and troubled condition.

Forgiveness is awaiting all who repent and turn in loving obedience to Him. Your real problem may be rebellion against God and His will for your life. Click to View Go To Start: WWW.BIBLE.CA ...

Thus, many of today's poor, (in the western world) are rich by the standards of past human history. (Indeed, most of our country's poor are rich by comparison with the poor of the outside world.) Thus, all of us, whether rich, poor, or in-between, face the question of how material possessions and our regard for them might change our standing with the one, eternal God.

500: First Century Synagogue Top Plans: Cana 40 BC
... The adjacent room is about 3x5 m, with continuous benches on three (perhaps four) sides. A monumental capital fits this interpretation, though there is still no clear proof of the building's identification as a Jewish public building. The building is unusual architecturally, though some features have parallels with public buildings at Chorazin, Gamla, and Khirbet Shema`, all of which have a room that functions as a study house. In the squares associated with these two rooms, roof tiles-some ... the same look and feel as the Jewish Synagogue in your own home town.
