202: The historical territory of the Ammonites in the Bible
The firstborn bore a son, and called his name Moab; he is the father of the Moabites to this day. As for the younger, she also bore a son, and called his name Ben-ammi; he is the father of the sons of Ammon to this day." Genesis 19:36-38 "the Lord our God delivered all over to us.

203: What The Death Of Christ Accomplished!
The reasons behind why Jesus died are a combination of God's plan and man's foolish sin in killing an innocent man. The foremost reason is the love of God, Rom 8:5; 1 Jn 3:16. Man had a desperate need for redemption, Rom 3:10; Mt 20:28; Heb 2:9; 1 Ti 1:15. Ultimately, a need for the remission of sins, Rom 2:5; Heb 9:22; Lk 24:46; Acts 17:3; 1 Cor 15:3. Jesus was that "acceptable sacrifice" to God, Mt 20:28; Eph 5:2; 1 Th 5:10. It was God's plan that Jesus died "vicariously" or in place of those who deserved it. This vicarious pattern was illustrated directly through the Old Testament antitype of the scapegoat, Lev ... It appears that in God's overall plan, there was some kind of time table in place to determine when Christ would die. Jesus was clearly appointed by God to die from the Garden, even before creation: Gen 3:15; Isa 53:6,10; Ac 2:23; Eph 3:11; 1 Pe 1:19-20. It seems that when the Gentiles started taking interest in Jesus, it was a signal to Christ that His death was near ... ...

Anxiety and depression are sinful behavior choices not diseases caused by chemical imbalances that are fixed through drugs and shocks. Introduction: 1.

In the beginning the word made "all things" Jn 1:1-3; Col 1:16 He did ALL his work in 6 days: Gen 2:1-3; Ex 20:11 Since the Sabbath day was not created till AFTER God rested on the seventh day, therefore the Sabbath day is not part of "all things" of the ORIGINAL CREATION and did not exist in the Garden until AFTER the 6 days of creation! God finished his word in SIX DAYS then rested. The Sabbath did not exist until after God rested on the seventh day.

243: The Watchtower's falsifying of their own War time history
It is impossible to trust the Jehovah's Witnesses and the Watchtower Bible & Tract Society, and this fact is proved in AWAKE! August 22 1995, no. 16. See what University of Lethbridge, professor James Penton wrote to the Watchtower leaders about this article! Click here Click to View "Sometimes Truth makes Love hurt" "You are seeking to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth" Jn 8:40 Tell us if you feel ... Because of their loyalty to God, they obey the laws of their respective human governments. Indeed, they are exemplary in their "subjection to the superior authorities." (Romans 13:1) Never have they advocated rebellion against any human government! There is, however, a line that cannot be crossed under any circumstances. It is the line between the duty of Jehovah's Witnesses to man and their duty to God. They render to Caesar, or governmental authorities, what belongs to Caesar but to God what belongs to Him. (Matthew 22:21) If anyone tries to exact from them what belongs to God, that ... ...

"But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him." (Luk 7:30) 4. Not all "you" were baptized with the Holy Spirit. (Acts 1:2-8) (Acts 1:26-2:4) 5. "You" does not include all Christians today! The promise was made to those John baptized and Jesus specified who the "you" were. C. Men must limit "You". 1. No one believes all that came to John were baptized of him! Therefore, the "you" must be limited. 2. Prophecy must be understood in the light of its fulfillment. For example: a.

that controlled much of the promised land, including Jerusalem, Hebron, and Lachish: Joshua 10:5 The transjordan Amorites were displaced south when Israel took possession of the promised land in 1406 BC: Gen 15:18-21; 48:22; Deut 7:1; Amos 2:10 The center of their power was transjordan in Heshbon, a town in modern Jordan. ... and from the city which is in the valley, even to Gilead, there was no city that was too high for us; the Lord our God delivered all over to us.

247: Is the Catholic church an infallible interpreter of scripture ...
... As we said before, the Catholics have no passages which mention an official interpreter and, thus, they try to support their claim through human logic and reasoning. Anytime men do such, it amounts to nothing more than human philosophy rather than Scriptural proof. The Bible says, "Let God be true, but every man a liar..." (Rom. 3:4). It also warns, "See to ... Instead, we are commanded and exhorted: grow in knowledge (2 Pet. 3:18), study (2 Tim. 2:15), exercise senses (Heb. 5:14), search (Acts 17:11), receive (James 1:21), read (Eph. 3:3-4), desire it (2 Pet. 2:2), let it unfold (Psalm 119:130), meditate on it day and night (Psalm 1:2) hear it read (Rev. 1:3), have it ... This shows plainly that the scriptures are not to be expounded by any one's private judgment or private spirit..." (From the footnote on 2 Pet. 1:20, Douay- Rheims Version, p. 582).

248: The Epic of Gilgamesh 1150 BC: 500 Flood stories prove Noah's ...
... A. Parallels with the Bible: 1. The central parallel of Gilgamesh with the Genesis flood is that the gods commanded a man to build a boat with specific dimensions, to fit all the animals inside to escape a flood. After the flood the boat rests on a mountain (as opposed to a flat plain) and a window is opened ... In the Epic of Atra-Hasis, Ea is the one who led the rebellion of the lower gods against the higher gods to escape their work and toil. 11. Enkidu: fallen god who became a man and Gilgamesh's co-traveler in the story. 12. Enlil: son of the supreme god An/Anu, brother of Ishtar/Inana and Enki. Was the one who carried out the decree of his father to destroy mankind with a flood. ... He seeks out Ut-napištim for spiritual enlightenment. 16. Gugalana: Bull of Heaven (the constellation Taurus) and first husband of Ereshkigal, that the "jilted lover" Ishtar sends to kill Gilgamesh. 17. Humbaba: A fire breathing dinosaur like the Biblical Leviathan of Job 41 that Gilgamesh and Enkidu ... ...

249: Ralph P. Martin: The Epistle of Paul to the Philippians
... It is this complete embracing of the will of God which gives value to his culminating obedience to death. But we must not be too quick to read the text as though it said explicitly that obedience was rendered to God. It does not, and leaves open the question. Perhaps it says no more than that Jesus' whole life was one of ... Death on a cross must be understood from two points of view. It would have special meaning for the Christian readers who were resident in a Roman city where revulsion against this form of capital punishment would be strong. 'This most cruel and hideous form of punishment' is the way it is described by Cicero, who expresses his feelings about ... It was this thought which proved the stumbling-block of the cross to the Jew (i Cor. 1:23); but, to Paul the Christian, it became the very nerve-centre of his doctrine of the cross and reconciliation (see Rom. 5::[-"; 2 Cor. 5:21; Gal. 3:13).' But here the teaching of the purpose of the cross is assumed. It is the fact which ... ...

... Nebuchadnezzar called Zedekiah (Daniel 3:27) to the furnace of fire and decreed that anybody who says anything against YHWH would be cast into the brick kiln. It must have been embarrassing and humiliating for Zedekiah, who sat on the throne of YHWH, to have faithlessly bowed to the pagan idol, and witness Nebuchadnezzar praise his three expatriates who had voluntarily walked out of Jerusalem and surrendered to ... Samsu-iluna, and others in the 18th century BC, preferred the traditional "sar kibrat arba'im, "king of the four quarters". III. Bible examples of being burned by fire as punishment: 1.
