    Do you believe that Masturbation a Sin?

    Now I'm saying it can be...that's why I voted yes. The Bible doesn't teach specifically against it. But the Bible tells us HOW TO THINK (Phil. 4:8). Masturbation is often associated with dirty thinking. Here is a page that you may want to consider: http://www.newjerusalem.com/bepure.htm...

    What about Baptism?

    Amen Cougan and Bible Is Right. I completely agree, Baptism is something for a LOST person, not a SAVED person. How else can we get into Christ? And are we saved OUT of Christ? Through HIM, TOFT

    Old Law/New Law

    Dear Kain, "I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people. And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me..."  This is...

    Old Law/New Law

    Dear Hank, The law was "our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster." (Gal. 3:24-25) These Jews HAD to follow the Law if they wanted to be a servant of God.  Once the New Law came...

    Old Law/New Law

    The Old Law was obsolete once the New Law came into effect...because we can't have two in effect at once. Say a man makes a will...he has one son...and wants to give his $1,000,000 to his son. But then later in his life he has a daughter and he decides to make a new will to give...

    Old Law/New Law

    Seebs, I do agree it is for our learning. We can learn about God's look on sin, prophecies of Christ, God keeping His promises, men/women of faith (Hebrews 11...shows some examples for our learning), etc. Through HIM, TOFT :)

    Old Law/New Law

    Dear Hank, I think we find a good reference in Hebrews 8:13 (NKJV) "In that He says, "A new covenant," He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away." The whole OT is obsolete. However the NT repeats what is necessary for...

    Lewis, God said to preach to "all the world." I doubt that He meant for us to just preach in our language and that's it. (Mark 16:15) There's your authority. We are commanded to preach to every creature. Well we have to preach in there language for them to understand? Or will someone...

    Musical Instruments

    I have read the Bible. I believe in the complete and infallible Word of God, written by men inspired of God by the Holy Ghost (2 Tim. 3:16). I do understand that the OT is there for our learning. To find examples of men and women of faith, to see what sin is, to see the prophecies, etc. But we...

    drinking

    Oh forgot one question. Is it ok for me to drink if I am under the age of the minimum age set by my government? Romans 13:1-2 "Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power...

    drinking

    Hi All, Well let us let the BIBLE Speak. These verses are pretty simple (verses from KJV): Is it a sin to get drunk? 1 Cor. 6:10 "Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." Can I drink without getting drunk, or is it a...

    Musical Instruments

    Well I was asking for authority for it...because when Paul, Jesus, etc. used the OT it was for prophecy or an example. I just don't get how someone can apply something from the OT?...wouldn't that mean we have to apply everything else from the OT? I don't think we can pick and choose...

    Musical Instruments

    Using modern songs or old hymns are the same if they glorify God. As long as they are in accordance with God's Word. That does not have to do with the use of instruments...my question was where do we find the authority. Also pointed that I would like NT, because OT authority was only for...

    Musical Instruments

    Well I believe that we may have had scriptures in the OT showing use of instruments. But do we have them in the NT? The OT passed away a long time ago (Hebrews 8:7-13, Col. 2:14)...We now have the NT. (Also note that two difference testaments/wills cannot be in effect at the same time...one...
