This is basically a list of "show me" verses in the Bible. "Show me" where is says that in the Bible! HERE! It's very informal and pretty much unedited.  Bear with me... The best way to use this is to search for something. (Using IE and Netscape browsers) is to go to the Edit menu and search under Find... (CRTL+F)
The remaining NEW items were added March 15, 2001


Here are some areas that I'm very interested in:
  ? Gap between death & heaven
  ? Those who've never heard (Romans 1:17,19-20, 2:14-15, II Thessalonians 2:11, Isaiah 52:15, Hebrews 10:16, John 1:9, Titus 2:11-12, Matthew 11:21-22)
  ? Who came up w/ verses & chapters? Who put the Bible together?
  ? "He walks with me, and he talks with me, and He tells me I am His own…. He lives!" -Miles
  ? Were angels there when God created the Earth - and who are the angels?
  ? Why is sinful pleasure so much more enticing than Godly pleasure?  Fear of exposed deeds (John 3:20, 6:60-71).
  NEW ? I believe that once we are saved, we will always be that way.  But these verses make me think!  (Hebrews 6:4-6, Romans 11:22, John 15:6)  To me, an unrighteous Christian is evidence that they never actually made a decision to follow Christ, or that they've hardened their hearts to God, even if they have been saved.
  NEW ? What was gained in original sin?  To experience mercy and have knowledge of good and evil (gain??) (Genesis 3:22).
  NEW ? What other beings were there besides God in the beginning?  Angels at a higher level than humans.  Genesis 1:26, 3:24.

….and here are subjects with verses I've found to support:

NEW Two accounts of Judas' death not contradictory.   He hung until he decomposed.  The priests' purchase was with his money (Matthew 27:3-10, Acts 1:18-19).

 

NEW Passages about women (Proverbs 31, Ephesians 5:22, I Timothy 2:9-15).  See CBEinternational.org for intelligent feminist interpretations of the Bible.

NEW Psalm 139 - just awesome.  Seach me, O God (v. 23-24)

The Gospel = Death, burial, resurrection, and you. The more you sin, the more He suffers; Lew Miller's Cup of Sin effect (Romans 6:10)

Christianity = a contract w/ God. YOU believe in Him, HE gives you LIFE! What's the issue?! How hard is that?

The Trinity = God invisible, God revealed, God working in men (conscience, guide, spiritual gifts)

Enoch walked with God! (Genesis 5:22)

Cain "mastering" sin (Genesis 4:7)

Why is Jesus special? (http://www.angelfire.com/il/Nilwood/Sacrifice.html)
Since all humans, with three exceptions by divine intervention, must die and be judged by a just and holy God, why is Jesus' death so unique? The answer to the what and why of Jesus and His death are at the very heart of Christianity. By becoming God dwelling in human form, He is now the only one capable of being the one whose righteousness could stand before God in judgement. So, God literally placed upon Himself all of the sins of the world, from Adam and Eve until the last person who will ever live. His own perfection was needed in order to take our sins away from us. That is why the Apostle Paul was able to write Romans 5:17-18, 2 Corinthians 5:10-21, Philippians 2:1-11. Also John 15:12-15.

The Law is written in our HEARTS (Hebrews 10:16)What other beings were there besides God? (Genesis 1:26, 3:24 - living creatures)
