352: Adultery and the Bible
We are told in I John 3:4, that sin is the transgression of God's law, therefore, to commit adultery is to transgress God's law, and therefore, sin. Not only has God forbidden adultery, but the son of God himself said, "Whoso looketh on a woman to lust after her, hath committed adultery with her already in his heart" Matthew 5:28. If the adulterous thought is sin, surely the adulterous act is sin. The Holy Spirit through the inspired apostle has told us plainly that adultery is a sin. Peter described some sinners of his day as having "eyes full of adultery, that cannot cease from sin" II Peter 2:14. Paul warned the Corinthians to "flee fornication" I Corinthians 6:18. We are living in an age where sin is portrayed as a mere illness of the body or mind; when sin is denied or laughed off, when sin is rationalized as merely doing one's own thing, or doing what comes naturally. But a belief in the Holy God and respect for the authority of his word demands that adultery be recognized and ... ...

355: God in the Chinese Language
Each one, by it's etymology tells us something about the spiritual Sovereign that is common to the ancient Chinese and the Hebrew Scriptures. God - El Shaddai Emperor Shun worshiped ShangTi, literally, the heavenly emperor. It is interesting to note the phonetic similarity between this Chinese identification of God and the Hebrew, Shaddai (Almighty). God - Creator God is also represented in the Chinese language by the word Shén. This word may be written in two different forms (see to the right and below). The etymology of this image reveals ... The LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed. (Genesis 2:8, NKJV) God - Spirit Ling is another word that can be used to refer to God. In a Chinese Bible, this word is used to refer to the Holy Spirit. The etymology of Ling reveals that the ancient Chinese had knowledge of the three persons of the Godhead! In the upper half of this character, there is pictured ONE who COVERS the WATERS. The ... ...

360: Subordination within the Godhead: Roles and Ranks
Subordination within the Godhead Submission doesn't make a wife less human than her husband. Submission doesn't make Jesus less God than the Father. Biblical subordination Jesus Christ is the creator, not a creature and will always be equal to the Father in this sense. Jn 1:1 says, "and the word was [uncreated] God". However, sometime around the incarnation, Jesus made a choice to submit to the Father as His head. We call this choice, the subordination (or down-ranking) of Christ to the Father. Jesus did not give up being God, He merely began to obey the Father as though He were a creature. This is called "Biblical subordination". Bible evidence seems to support the view that the Holy Spirit submits to both the Father and the Son, but it is not a strong case.

362: TRINTITY: 6 Different ontological views of God Examined and defined
Ontology is defined as: "a branch of metaphysics concerned with the nature and relations of being, based on visible morphological characters". Obviously, when we are speaking of the ontology of God, we are looking into the hidden spirit world for which we know nothing other than what the Bible tells us. The Bible doesn't really tell us much about how God is "built". We understand that humans have a body with bones etc., but the "metaphysical structure" of God is in fact outside our ability to know. The Bible, for example tells us that God is one, yet the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are all called God, yet they are distinct. This has brought about numerous ...

371: Who Do You Think Jesus Is?
But Jesus was most interested in what His followers thought so He next asked, "But who do you say that I am?" So we begin this lesson by asking you the reader,"Who do you think Jesus is"? Jesus (God the son) has existed from eternity with God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit. John 1:1,14 says, "In the beginning was the Word (Jesus) and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God...and the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory." Jesus made reference to his pre-earth existence, ... Yet, even when Jesus walked the earth in a human body, He was fully divine, "For in Christ all the fullness of deity dwells in bodily form" (Col 2:9). God bore witness to the fact Jesus was divine by raising Him from the dead, "Jesus was declared the Son of God with power by the resurrection from the dead" (Rom 1:4). Jesus said, "Why do you call me Lord, Lord, and do not do what I command" (Lk 6:46)? For Christ to be the Lord of our life, we must ... ...

372: Has the Bible been lost, altered or corrupted over time?
... Greek manuscripts of the fourth and fifth centuries. And so abundant have been the discoveries in the past sixty-five years that we can now go nearly two hundred years farther back with the evidence. Such great textual discoveries as the papyrus manuscripts of Chester Batey; the Bodlar manuscript of John and Luke, enrich our knowledge beyond the fondest dreams of textual critics of the last century, and still the sands of Egypt and the Middle East continue to yield treasures. Surely, in God's providence, such discoveries are being brought forth in the modern dark ages of doubt to light the way to faith in God's Holy Word. With such firm confidence in the original text we stand upon the fi m rock of God's immutable truth. Our Lord himself said, "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away" (Matthew 24:35). Surely the God who made this world with all its complexities is capable of preserving his word for all generations. Click Your Choice Go To Start: WWW.BIBLE.CA ...

373: The early use of "nomina sacra" indicates a canon was recognized
or replacement of one word for another. "Nomina sacra" was a Jewish practice that is witnessed in the dead sea scrolls adopted by the Christians. Dead Sea Scroll (4Q175 or 4QTest) uses "Nomina sacra" and replaces the name of God (tetragrammaton) YHWH for four stars "****". The other DSS below (4Q174-4QFlorilegium) fully spells out the name of God. See full outline on Jewish Messianic expectation The document is in Greek expect for Mosaic Hebrew (Paleo-Hebrew) where they wrote the name of God YHWH in the extinct Hebrew alphabet. Other documents (Like 4Q175) found at the same time would use four stars **** as an early "nomina sacra" substitution. This substitution of Mosaic Hebrew for Greek in the name of God is probably the very beginning point of "nomina sacra". Nomina sacra developed into the Christian era and became almost ridiculous because they would create substitutional abbreviations for other "sacred" things including: God, Father, Son, Holy Spirit, Saviour, Cross, Christ etc. ... ...

All these churches heavily endorse the use of creeds, both historic and modern which they believe to be "functionally equivalent" to scripture. Some say their creeds are revelations of the Holy Spirit, while others would deny this, yet all believe creeds are an acid test of orthodoxy. We call these churches "pseudo sola Scriptura" organizations because although they claim to use the Bible only, they ... ...

377: Metzger, Bruce M. and Coogan, Michael D., Editors; Daniel N. ...
... It is possible that this three part formula derives from later liturgical usage and was added to the text of 2 Corinthians as it was copied. In support of the authenticity of the passage, however, it must be said that the phrasing is much closer to Paul's understandings of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit than to a more fully developed concept of the Trinity. Jesus, referred to not as Son but as Lord and Christ, is mentioned first and is connected with the central Pauline theme of grace. God is referred to as a source of love, not as father, and the Spirit promotes sharing within the community. The word "holy" does not appear before "spirit" in the earliest manuscript evidence for this passage. A more familiar formulation is found in Matthew 28.19, where Jesus commands the disciples to go out and baptize "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." The phrasing probably reflects baptismal practice in churches at Matthew's time or later if the line is interpolated. ... ...

Mt 1:18 Can only refer to sex because "before they had sex she became pregnant" reinforces the virgin birth. But "before they began living together does not support the virgin birth". It was not normal to live together or have sex when betrothed, giving powerful evidence that the reference is to sex, not co-habitation. What value is there in mentioning that it was merely before they started living together when the real point is that they were not only living separately, but had not had sex yet!
