  1. That is true Moody,that is why in Hebrews 10:17 He says to you.."AND YOUR SINS I REMEMBER NO MORE"....
  2. Answer:EQUALITY.-This is the message that Paul is trying to emphasize as a trait that a Master or employee should have. Equality,irregardless of position,race,or cultures,to give each and every person equal playing field in promotions,incentives and demotion if necessary. If this will be practiced in our workplace today,then productivity will rise,due to good harmonious working relationship with each other,no more fear of anything because you know that your Boss are lloking at all employee without impartiality. It would motivate the workers,to work more.
  3. (Colossians 3:20-21) In what way does obedience prepare a child for everyday life in the future? For spiritual life in the future? What can fathers do to keep from discouraging their children? Answer:Answer:Obedience instill discipline.If a child as young as he is,learn to have this virue in home,then He can carry this outside and in Fact reflect one of Jesus greatest character:OBEDIENCE..Obedience to the cross.One of the best verse to Characterized Christ Obedience to the Father can be found in Matthew 26:39- And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt. If Obedience is nurtured in the House,as in a child obeying his parents,it also prepares the way for his immersion to the outside world,and can help a lot in his relationship with other people,such as His Teacher,boss,etc. The father on His part must not be too harsh in his discipline to the child,to the point of physical harm.This will just create hidden desire to fight back from the child,and harbor resentment.
  4. Answer:Apostle Paul is trying to put guidelines to The Collosae believers on relationship between Husband and Wife,with emphasis on their relationship to God,notice in verse 18
  5. Answer:Reckon means to count,or estimate,to understand,to consider ourselves dead to sin and alive in Christ. We are convincing ourselves,to what is true in our new nature,being united with Christ.And the effect,of this understanding that we died with Christ,is that we will live in Christ like manner,having all the fruit of the spirit manifest into our life. Instead,of magnifying and struggling with sin;we can now focus on our new nature in Christ,looking unto heaven for the glory that is stored in us.
  6. Answer:Death to sin,means dead to our old sinful self,and since we are dead on our old self we no longer,co exist with him,and in fact is freed from the bondage,due to our Faith in Christ Jesus.(Romans 6:1- For he that is dead is freed from sin.) Our old self are nailed in the cross,and Paul is referring to this
  7. Answer: Buried means,to die, something of the past,that no longer exists. Christ was raised from the dead,means resurrection and victory over death,over all things that the enemy has binded man.When Adam turned over to satan the power that God has given him(Adam),during the fall,Jesus reclaim this power in his resurrection: Rev 1:18- I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death Matthew 28:18- And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. So the term Christ was raised from the dead is the Victory march of Jesus,from His resurrection to Ascension to heaven,victory over the enemy.— Colossians 2:14-15- Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross [15 And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it
  8. Q1. (Romans 6:3-5) In what sense does baptism bring about our union with Christ? In what sense does baptism symbolize our union with Christ? Answer: I think Apostle Paul is talking about Baptism in Spiritual sense.We are baptized with Christ,in His death when we accept Him as our Lord and personal Saviour,that is our old sinful,dead spirit is finally put to rest,and New Spirit is born,the same spirit that raised Jesus from the dead now resides in us,in the form of HOLY SPIRIT,and only Jesus can give us the Holy Spirit,from the Heavenly Father.(John 16:7- Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you We are immersed in His Holiness,and righteousness,in our union with Him,we become one,as we are being resurrected from our dead spirit.I believe this symbolizes our union with Christ,that God sees the Spirit of His Son in us,His Holiness,His righteousness,and Him calling us His beloved Son.
  9. Q4. (Romans 6:2-5) According to this passage, at what point do we move from being under the headship of Adam to the headship of Christ? Is there anything we must do to bring about this change in headship? What are the implications of us having died with Christ? Answer:Question: According to this passage, at what point do we move from being under the headship of Adam to the headship of Christ? Answer:We moved from the headship of Adam to headship of Christ,the moment we received Jesus as our Lord and Saviour.When we confess that we can
  10. Why are Christian virtues so important to Christ? Why are they so important to the church? Why are they so important to non-Christians? Why are they so important in our homes? Answer-Answer:Christian virtues are important,to Christ and Church because it is the manifestation IF INDEED a CHRISTIAN is a DISCIPLE of CHRIST.This is what Jesus has said in John 8:31-32-Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. Jesus speak this to the Beleivers(already born again),but in context he said that believing is not enough,if we want to be his disciples we need to continue in his WORD,to study it,and LIVE IN IT,and onlt then we can know the TRUTH. If we manifested the Christian virtues that Paul is talking,then indeed we have the FRUIT of the SPIRIT(Gal 5:22-23-But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law) a clear sign that indeed Jesus is living in the inside of us,as represented and lived by the Holy Spirit. It is important in our home,because it is the first,the beginning of our true education.If This virtues will be practiced in our home,we will carry it through when we are in the outside effortlessly.

  12. Answer: (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law).-Romans 5:13 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound-Romans 5:20 It is clear in verse 13,that where there is no law,sin although it exist, is not imputed or was not accounted to man.Or in summary,NO LAW=NO SIN. In verse 20,sin abound(trespass increase),because man is aware that there is a regulation,and he constantly breaks it.The law exposed man sinful nature,making him,knowledgeable of his sinful act(Romans 3:20- Therefore by the deeds the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin The law made sin come alive.Itrevived the sin on the inside of us,and gave it an opportunity against us.The law didn’t strengthen us in our battle against sin,it strengthened sin in its battle against us.Look at 1 Corinthians 15:56-The sting of death is sin;and the strength of sin is the law
  13. Answer-The Japanese,invasion of Asia pacific,attacking also Pearl Harbor,dragging America into declaring War with them.,and in turn,dropping of the first atomic bomb in Hiroshima and Nagasaki,killing thousands of innocent people.,because of the single act or decision of its leader.The people who perish during those war are united in their stand behind their leaders whether they are agreeable to the decision or not.
  14. Q3. (Romans 5:6, 8) Why is it so important to embrace the truth that "Christ died for the ungodly" (5:6), that "Christ died for sinners" (5:8)? According to 5:8, did Christ die for us at our best or at our worst? How does this give us assurance against the devil's lies about us being too bad to forgive? Answer:Answer:It is important to embrace this truth,so that we don
  15. \ Q2. (Colossians 3:5) Why is sexual **** so difficult for people, especially males? Though we cannot deny that we are sexual beings, how can we keep sexual desire from controlling us and causing us to sin? http://www.joyfulheart.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=978 Answer:Sexual **** is difficult for people to control,because of the culture that we live in.Male and Female sexuality is all around us,Hollywood star glamourized by media,and their sexual perversion is being accepted as just a norm of life. By nature,all of us has sexual desire,and before we are born again,all this sexual **** is just nothing but normal way of living..We live through it,for we have seen others do it,other who are more than we are in their society standing..This is all we are before,NO MORAL STANDING
  16. Q1. (Colossians 3:1-2) What does it mean to "set your heart/mind" on the things above? Does this mean that we're "too heavenly minded to be of any earthly good"? If not, what does it mean? What happens when we don't take control and direct our thinking and meditating? http://www.joyfulheart.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=977 Answer:Paul reference to setting our minds on things above is,about renewing our mind.We are ,all bombarded by the worldly things as we continue our walk with Christ.And if the enemy cannot steal the Word in our heart due to IGNORANCE,he will try other means to make the Word of God,be of no effect to the believers by occupying His mind with ****,deceitfulness,and all other his wily deception. Our mind is the window of our Spirit, that all thoughts are being formed and pass into our heart( Proverbs 23:7-For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.,)..it is the things that we think through our mind,that words comes out from our mouth,that is why David has prayed in Psalm 19:14-Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. If we don
