What is the sea of forgetfulness? ⠀ ⠀ The phrase sea of forgetfulness is not actually in Scripture. When people mention the “sea of forgetfulness,” they are usually referring to several passages that talk about God’s forgiveness, and how when we are justified in Christ, God forgets our sins so completely that they might as well be buried at the bottom of an ocean.⠀ ⠀ The main passage that contains the idea of a sea of forgetfulness is Micah 7:19: “He will again have compassion on us, and will subdue our iniquities. You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea.” Another verse, Isaiah 1:18, says that God will make our scarlet sins as white as wool. Psalm 103:12 expresses the thought in yet another way: “As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.”⠀ ⠀ A sea of forgetfulness represents a place where our sins are sent very far away from us, so that they can no longer affect us. It does not mean that we, as believers, no longer sin or that our sins are erased from God’s mind. It only means that our sins no longer have any bearing on our salvation. Jesus’ perfect life, sacrificial death, and glorious resurrection is the only means by which we are saved (Acts 4:12). When we trust in Christ, we come under a new paradigm. Although our sins still grieve God and cause ruin in our lives and in the lives of others, our salvation is secure (Romans 8:1, 31–39).⠀ ⠀ Keep reading this answer by tapping our profile pic and finding the link in our bio.⠀ #forgiveness #GotQuestions ⠀ https://www.gotquestions.org/sea-of-forgetfulness.html

Does the Bible teach that God is love? ⠀ ⠀ The Bible does teach that God is love, yet it also describes that He is much more than just love. In 1 John, the apostle John affirms twice that God is love (1 John 4:8, 16). In many other passages, the Bible describes the love that God expresses, but only John actually says that God is love. Clearly, John is not implying that God is only a concept or that He is equal to love. On the contrary, John consistently recognizes God as personal, but described as love. While love is a central attribute of God, there are other divine attributes that are important, and one in particular may be even more definitive of who God is.⠀ ⠀ While John records that “God is love” (1 John 4:8, 16), he also records the scene in heaven with the four creatures who constantly say, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come” (Revelation 4:8). John explains that God is love, but he also communicates that the creatures God surrounds Himself with repeatedly affirm His holiness. It seems that God most wants to be understood as being holy, or totally set apart.⠀ ⠀ Keep reading this answer by tapping our profile pic and finding the link in our bio.⠀ #GodIsLove #GotQuestions⠀ https://www.gotquestions.org/Bible-teach-God-is-love.html

Questions people ask me all the time: 1. As a female and mother, why would you want a FFL? A: I will protect my family NO MATTER WHAT! Having the knowledge and education to do that responsibly is of upmost importance. 2. As a Christian, don’t you expect God to protect you? A: John 10:10-29 - the Devil comes to steal, kill and destroy. NOT God! The Devil is apparent in this world…my hope is to protect them. 3. I believe in our constitutional rights and the 2nd Amendment! Keeping those rights alive is OUR responsibility. #gotquestions #askme #2ndamendment #ffl #momma

Is there value in studying comparative religions? ⠀ ⠀ “Comparative Religions 101: Study the world’s major faiths and religions side by side and learn their similarities and differences.” This simple course description is included in thousands of college and university catalogs advertising a class that is often required for graduation. Books and websites are devoted to the subject of comparative religions, many times with the goal of validating and presenting each as a respectable option for mankind’s spiritual needs. Education is always beneficial when it is pursued from a foundation of truth; however, if we study comparative religions with the goal of changing our thinking about God and His Word, such an undertaking can be dangerous. Christians who are grounded in their faith should have no problem studying the world’s man-made religions. Even so, there are a few things to keep in mind.⠀ ⠀ Keep reading this answer by tapping our profile pic and finding the link in our bio.⠀ #ComparativeReligions #GotQuestions⠀ https://www.gotquestions.org/comparative-religions.html

From GotQuestions: What is the purpose of spiritual gifts? The gifts God gives us through His Spirit are to be used for His glory (Colossians 3:17). The “most excellent way” to do that is with love (1 Corinthians 12:31b; 13:1–13). Any gift used for personal gain or without love is like a harsh noise to God and the church. Even the most powerful spiritual gifts memorably displayed, if done without love, cannot glorify God. We should also take care of and develop the gifts God has given us. We are to fan into flames every spiritual gift God gives (1 Timothy 1:6) and put them to good use. Various spiritual gifts assessments or tests are available, which may or may not be helpful in one’s Christian life. What’s most important is to be prayerfully serving the Lord. The gifts of the Spirit will be confirmed by time, teaching, and mentoring.

What are the keys of the kingdom? ⠀ ⠀ The biblical passage that makes reference to the “keys of the kingdom” is Matthew 16:19. Jesus had asked His disciples who people thought He was. After hearing several of the more popular opinions, Jesus aimed His question directly at His disciples. Peter, responding for the twelve, acknowledged Jesus as the Christ, the Son of the Living God. After this great confession, Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matthew 16:17–19).⠀ ⠀ Keep reading this answer by tapping our profile pic and finding the link in our bio.⠀ #keysofthekingdom #GotQuestions⠀ https://www.gotquestions.org/keys-of-the-kingdom.html

What is Christian mysticism? ⠀ ⠀ Christian mysticism is a difficult term to define. It is often thought of as the practice of the experiential knowledge of God. The term can also apply to the mystery of the Eucharist in Roman Catholicism as well as so-called hidden meanings of Scripture, such as in Gnosticism. The Bible does not have hidden meanings, nor do the elements of communion become Christ’s literal body and blood. Although it is true that Christians experience God, Christian mysticism tends to elevate experiential knowledge and revel in the mysterious, focusing on mysticism for spiritual growth. Biblical Christianity focuses on knowing God through His Word (the Bible) and communion with the Holy Spirit through prayer. Mysticism tends to be an individual, subjective practice whereas biblical Christianity is both an individual relationship with God and one that is necessarily lived out in community. There is no such thing as a solo Christian. Not all of what could be considered "Christian mysticism" is wrong, but much of it is, and a focus on mysticism can certainly lead one into error.⠀ ⠀ Keep reading this answer by tapping our profile pic and finding the link in our bio.⠀ #ChristanMysticism #GotQuestions⠀ https://www.gotquestions.org/Christian-mysticism.html

From 412teens: How does God decide who gets which spiritual gifts? Because God is omnipotent, He knows exactly what spiritual gifts you will need for everything that will happen in your life (Romans 12:3-8; 1 Corinthians 12), and those specific gifts are the ones God will give you. We have a responsibility to work on maturing our spiritual gifts in the same way we practice a natural talent to improve our skills. Whatever purposes God has for your life, you can be assured that God will equip you with whatever you need for that work (Ephesians 2:10). Regardless of a believer's spiritual giftedness, ALL believers are called to be hospitable, merciful, loving, and compassionate; to serve others; and to share God's message of salvation.

What is the book of Enoch and should it be in the Bible? ⠀ ⠀ The Book of Enoch is any of several pseudepigraphal works that attribute themselves to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah; that is, Enoch son of Jared (Genesis 5:18). A piece of ancient literature is a pseudepigraphon if it makes false claims as to authorship. A pseudepigraphon will purport to have a (usually) well-known author, but its claims are unfounded.⠀ ⠀ Enoch is also one of the three people in the Bible taken up to heaven bodily, the only others being Elijah and Jesus (and only Jesus having experienced a resurrection). We read about Enoch’s translation in Genesis 5:24: “And Enoch walked with God, and he was not; for God took him” (see also Hebrews 11:5). Most commonly, when people refer to the Book of Enoch, they mean 1 Enoch, which is wholly extant only in the Ethiopic language. The Book of Enoch is accepted as canonical by the Coptic Church in Ethiopia and the Eritrean Orthodox Church. In addition to 1 Enoch, there are 2 Enoch (“The Book of the Secrets of Enoch”) and 3 Enoch (“The Hebrew Book of Enoch”). Fragments of the Book of Enoch in Aramaic and Hebrew were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls.⠀ ⠀ Keep reading this answer by tapping our profile pic and finding the link in our bio.⠀ #BookOfEnoch #GotQuestions⠀ https://www.gotquestions.org/book-of-Enoch.html

Oh, the blessings that waiting can bring!!! Having patience builds us up, leading to stronger character and increased faith in God. What are you doing in the waiting period? Are you anxious, worried, stressed, manipulating the situation to your will?

What are some of the most famous sayings of Jesus? ⠀ ⠀ Jesus’ every word was full of wisdom and truth. Some of His sayings have entered the lexicon of common parlance due to the rich meaning they carry and the impact they have had on believers and non-believers alike. While any compilation of Jesus’ most famous sayings is a bit subjective, the following is our list of ten of Jesus’ most famous sayings:⠀ ⠀ “Do to others as you would have them do to you.” (Luke 6:31)⠀ ⠀ This admonition from Jesus is familiar to people the world over, and it is generally known as “The Golden Rule.” Jesus’ prescription for living with others is foundational to maintaining good relationships, and the basic morality of the statement is appealing to a wide variety of people. What sets this statement apart from similar statements from other teachers throughout history is the positive framing of Jesus’ command and the call to be proactive in our goodness toward other people.⠀ ⠀ “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)⠀ ⠀ When Jesus predicted His own death, His disciples were understandably upset. Jesus comforted them by telling them that He was going to heaven to prepare a place for all believers (John 14:2). He then said, “You know the way to the place I am going” (verse 4). In confusion, Thomas questioned this statement, and Jesus responded by telling the disciples that He is the way to heaven—the only way. Jesus’ statement that He is the way, the truth, and the life is one of the most important tenets of Christianity. It identifies the Savior, and it sets limits on how salvation is obtained, which is through faith in Christ’s death and resurrection.⠀ ⠀ Keep reading this answer by tapping our profile pic and finding the link in our bio.⠀ #SayingsOfJesus #GotQuestions⠀ https://www.gotquestions.org/famous-sayings-of-Jesus.html

Why did Jesus refer to the Pharisees as a “child of hell” in Matthew 23:15? ⠀ ⠀ “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when you have succeeded, you make them twice as much a child of hell as you are” (Matthew 23:15). This is one of the “seven woes” pronounced by the Lord against the Pharisees and the teachers of the Law. To understand why Jesus would refer to a convert of the Pharisees as a “child of hell” (literally, “son of Gehenna”), we have to look at the context of Jesus’ words. Jesus is instructing His followers about the religious hypocrites who are themselves “children of hell.”⠀ ⠀ Jesus begins His condemnation of the religious leaders of the day in Matthew 22 with a parable. The story of the wedding feast (Matthew 22:1–15) condemns the leaders’ self-righteousness and their refusal to accept God’s provision for their salvation. Because their hearts were still hard, they responded by trying to entrap Jesus with questions about taxes (verses 16–22), the resurrection (verses 23–33), and the Law (verses 34–40). Jesus avoided their traps and indicted them for knowing neither the Scriptures nor the power of God (verse 29). Then He turned the tables on them, asking them a question they couldn’t answer about the Messiah (verses 41–46). Once He had silenced them, He used the occasion to teach His disciples the truth about the teachers of the Law in chapter 23.⠀ ⠀ Keep reading this answer by tapping our profile pic and finding the link in our bio.⠀ #GotQuestions⠀ https://www.gotquestions.org/child-of-hell.html

From 412teens: What is the spiritual gift of helps? "Helps" is listed in 1 Corinthians 12:28 as part of one of the Bible's spiritual gifts lists. They have an uncanny ability to perceive the physical, emotional, or spiritual needs of others and have a desire to fulfill those needs, regardless of personal benefit or loss. They serve with compassion, humility, and grace. Believers with the spiritual gift of helps are invaluable to the physical, emotional, and spiritual health of the Body of Christ as they help carry the personal burdens of others. They do not crave acknowledgment or gratitude because the act of helping is what brings them joy.

Repost from @gotquestionsministries • Did the people in the Bible have last names? ⠀ ⠀ People in Bible times did not really have last names like we think of last names today. They frequently went by something similar to “Simon, son of Jonah” (Matthew 16:17). The phrase “son of Jonah” identified Simon as a different Simon than all the other Simons by this family connection. This functioned very close to a last name. Today, our last names use the same distinction. John Smith identifies John as a part of the Smith family.⠀ ⠀ Sometimes a person was identified by his tribe, such as “Aaron, the Levite” (Exodus 4:14), which differentiated that particular Aaron from the Aarons in other tribes. In the same way, Jesus was called Jesus of Nazareth to indicate His hometown (Matthew 26:71; John 18:5). Others in biblical times used their occupations as a functional last name, such as “Simon the tanner” (Acts 10:6). “Tanner” wasn’t his last name, but a way to distinguish him from other Simons in the area who had a different occupation. Judas Iscariot’s name was given to him to designate his native place, Carioth, or Kerioth, a small town in the tribe of Judah. Matthew, one of the Twelve and author of the gospel bearing his name, refers to himself as “Matthew the tax-collector” (Matthew 10:3), which reveals not only his occupation, but the astounding fact that even someone as lowly and despised as a tax collector could be chosen by Jesus to become His follower.⠀ ⠀ We sometimes think the name “Jesus Christ” refers to His first and last names. But it really means “Jesus, who is the Christ / Messiah.” Originally, the title took the form of “Jesus, the Christ,” but it has become common usage to shorten His name to Jesus Christ. This holy name means “Jesus, the Christ who is the Messiah, the anointed one who saves His people from their sins.” #GotQuestions
