Does " will eventually overcome all lust" happen during our physical life? That is the reality I am trying to get to know.

For the WAGES of SIN is DEATH

Good AND evil. Do you see what I mean? When we really pay attention to the words it works to say the sin was to know evil...AND evil. Am I wrong?

--- Quote from: Dawn on September 15, 2007, 08:50:36 PM ---I would like to ask 56,242 questions to everyone on this forum. ;D ;D ;D
I know that's just impatience. The funny thing is, getting an answer from a forum member isn't going to put it into my spirit/heart. That comes from God in His time. So I fully understand wanting to ask the questions. Its taken everything for me NOT to do it. ;D ;D ;D but I know getting to those conclusions "by way of the Spirit" is the best way...the only way!

Hi Dawn, :)
While it is true that Christ said: "Ask and you shall recieve"
Mat 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
I am not sure that Christ meant that God sends a special carrier angel to you and hands you the answer on a silver platter. :) Well if he does, that explains my ignorance still :D
God has always opened doors of opportunity for me. I know this as a sad but true fact. For looking back I can see many times I walked by something because I was to afraid or too uncertain. Oh sure, it was God's will that I do so, but it was also so that I might learn. Please ask the first of your 56,242 questions and I am sure that you will find an answer that meshes well with the Spirit within you. God has brought you hear for a reason my dear sister. I would ask you to not sit back and wait, rather I would hope that you search out the truthful answers to your many questions right here. After all, Christ said SEEK and asking and being patient right here within the forum is an excellent place to start.
Oh and I promise I will NEVER make you look small and ridicule you and I will defend your right to ask. This forum is title Bible - Truths for a reason; truth can be found here :)
Love to you in Christ,
Your borther,
Darren
dawnnnny:
Darren thank you for your encouragement!
I guess I feel like I should get through the rest of the material on the BT website first, since a lot of those questions will be addressed there. But it won't be long before I throw out one or two. :)
I'm glad I have a place to safely ask too.
Thank you again!

Greetings Mark,
I still haven't figured out how this quote thing works, but you say, "Good AND evil. Do you see what I mean? When we really pay attention to the words it works to say the sin was to know evil...AND evil. Am I wrong?"
I think that's a good question. I just recently came across what I believe to be the answer. Read Rom.7:7-14. When I consider this text in frame of the commandment God gave in Gen.2:16,17 the answer becomes evident (vs.13 But sin, that it might appear sin...become exceedingly sinful). I agree with the previous text in Romans as well as Gen.6:5, Mt.15:19. This leads me to ask the question, why did satan have to tempt Eve in order to give sin opportunity? Perhaps because in Gen. 2:16 God said they could freely eat of all the trees (except the tree of knowledge of good and evil). This would lead me to wonder if both Adam and Eve weren't already partaking of the tree of life, only didn't know what they had till it was gone, and then they had something to compare it to. It reminds me of the verse in Mt.10:39 "He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it." Satan had to personally tempt Jesus in the wilderness too, only this time because Jesus walked perfectly in the Spirit, as he was already well aware of (knowledge of) good and evil, but without sin in his heart.
