DharmyYinks: Apart from salvation, there is perhaps a way that the concept "God helps those who help themselves" is correct. As an example, if you asked me to help you move a piece of furniture, but then just watched me as I moved the furniture for you, I was not actually helping you. I would be doing the work for you. Many Christians fall into the trap of inactivity. Many Christians ask God for help, but then expect God to do everything Himself. They excuse this by pointing to the fact that God will provide according to His will and in His timing. However, this is not a reason for inactivity. As a specific example, if you are in need of a job, ask the Lord to help you find a job - but then be active in actually looking for a job. While it is in His power to do so, it is highly unlikely that God will cause employers to come looking for you! -Gotquestions.org |

femi4: This doesn't necessarily mean he's saying he is God. Like the Bible says a man shall leave his parents and be joined with his wife and they shall become one. That doesn't mean the man can claim to be his wife. They being one as I understand it is a unity of purpose and plan not necessarily person. 1 Like |

ademega: The robber that only repented on the cross at the point of death has a special place in the heart of GOD. David, who committed adultery + murder has a special place in the heart of GOD. Rahab the prostitute has a special place in the heart of GOD. Can you give me a single verse in the Bible that implies that GOD intended for man to be polygamous? |

femi4: Sure, low enough to know it takes a sperm and an ovum to become one flesh. If the Bible is said to be written in parables, is that too difficult to decode with your high IQ? |

ademega: You have a special place in the heart of GOD. I have a special place in the heart of GOD. Everybody has a special place in the heart of GOD. He loves us so much that He gave His only begotten Son to die for our sins. That alone is a proof of the fact that everybody has a special place in the heart of GOD. |

“Have you not read that he who
created them from the beginning made them male
and female, and said, ‘Therefore a man shall
leave his father and his mother and hold fast to
his wife (not wives) , and they shall become one flesh’? So
they are no longer two but one flesh. (Matthew
19:4-5)
Some men came to Jesus with some questions
about marriage and divorce and from Jesus’
response we see that He also reinforces what
God said in the very beginning (i.e. marriage
is between one man and one woman). Things
have not changed under the New T. The
Apostle Paul, who was directly taught by
Jesus Christ, Himself, also spoke on marriage.
Here is what he had to say.
Now concerning the matters about which you
wrote: “It is good for a man not to have sexual
relations with a woman.” But because of the
temptation to sexual immorality, each man should
have his own wife and each woman her own
husband. ( I Corinthians 7:1-2)
Paul also teaches that marriage is between 1
man and 1 woman and anything other than
that is immorality (especially homosexual
marriage).
The question then arises, “how is it that the
Old T. personages were able to have more
than 1 wife?”. God allowed them to have more
than 1 wife but He did not bless it. They
chose to be disobedient to God and take more
than 1 wife. Look at the problems that each
of the men who took more than 1 wife had.
From Abraham to Solomon, all of them had
major problems because of their extra wives.
It was not God’s will yet they chose it and
paid the price for it. So, just because the men
chose to disobey, does not mean that God
approved of their actions.
What about you my dear friend, have you been
deceived by the modern teaching that says
marriage can be anything other than between
one man and one woman? If you, you need to
repent, turn to God, and believe what He says
and live accordingly. God help us remain
faithful to the Word of God and not be
deceived by the trickery of men. Happy Sunday to you all...... Love you 1 Like |

Akkord4gov: Well, you don't read the Bible to find fault or to try to interprete it with your own human mind. (See 1 Cor. 2:14) You ask the Holy Spirit, by whom the Scriptures are inspired, to teach you the Bible. |
Re: 3 Things Jesus Never Said by femi4: 2:19pm On Apr 24, 2016 |
Akkord4gov:You were quick to quote scriptures that shows the difference between God and Jesus but its easier for you to neglect scriptures that shows that Jesus possesses the attributes of God. I have just one question for you, apart from God, who else has the authority to forgive sins? 1 Like |

DharmyYinks:bros. In your second assumption "neither do I condemn thee" sir you lack simple understanding of that language, let me start from verse 10:when jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, woman, where are those thine ACCUSERS? Hath no man CONDEMNED thee?now the woman was ACCUSED but not yet been CONDEMNED now the woman was brought to jesus for condemnation which simply mean passing judgement of death by stoning which was what the acussers were expecting but jesus shocked them by saying if you have no sin cast the first stone!!!!!. In verse 11 jesus said to the woman NEITHER do I CONDEMNED thee simply means neither do I cause you to death that does mean jesus did not know she commit the crime but jesus is offering the woman the second chance to repent then, jesus finished the verse by saying "go sin no more" . Basic jesus did not condemned the woman basic according to the bible. |

I don't think there is anything shady about God... The father and the son with the spirit are one and that the reason they bear the same name which is Jesus Christ . And there is cross for every one to bear . Heaven helps whosoever help himself it means we all have a role to play.... There is no argument in the word of God.. It unbelive that makes you argue and doubt |

Re: 3 Things Jesus Never Said by femi4: 2:39pm On Apr 24, 2016 |
Akkord4gov:Not that they are saying opposite. Its we human being that choose to believe one part and neglect others. Point 1 A father sent his son to us Point 2 The father said, this is my son, listen to him Point 3. The son said, if you have seen me, you have seen the father. But trust scriptures adulterer: They will only hammer on point 1. If my Father owes you, and I tell you that if you have seen me, you have seen my Father. You have the right to demand from me whatever he owes you. 1 Like |
