Comment: Sometimes you have to see a word in use (in the Bible) to see what it pertains to.

Vain has multiple uses.

It continues to amaze me how Rahab married into Judah by Salmon while Ruth married into the Judah by their son Boaz and they had Obed who begat Jesse who begat King David.

Faith!

1 Corinthians 14:34-36 KJV

Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. [35] And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. [36] What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?

*********

I didn't find any soft headed people. I'm not sure what that means biblically either.

What version of Bible are you using?

King David.

The Law and The Prophets AKA

Moses and Elijah

It occurred in the permissive will of God: Sarah gave her maid to Abraham to obtain a child.

It had been some time since She & Abraham were promised a child by God. You should read the Whole story in Genesis.

It wasn't how God said it would happen. The boy Ishmael was 1/2 brother to Isaac.

God already had said the Covenant child would come through Abraham & Sarah.

He blessed Ishmael, but Ishmael is not part of the Abrahamic Covenant that includes ALL of the land of Israel. That's what they are fighting about in Israel, every day. It's in the news every day.

Ismaels descendants are the Palestinians. The Israelis are the descendants of Abraham who own the deed on the Land of Israel. It is recorded in Genesis.

**********

The Battle of Armageddon will be fought over the land and the Israelis right to live on it. Stupid ignorant American Politicians will try to force the Jews/Israelis to give up land for Peace.

GODS blessing is on those who bless Israel. If United States forced them to give up land for peace: THEN the USA will be cursed by God. That's all of us and kids too.

Y'all better get active calling up representatives and get into some strong protest; threats to switch parties; not re-elect them. Nows a good time to speak up.

If you're going to be passive and silent; you better be born again!!

We're fixing to be Raptured off this Rock.

For the Record: Twitter, Facebook, and Google are going to be taken over by the Antichrist. I expect there is a deal in the wind, already. Read the tech news.

But He is on Earth. And He has a spirit, ( the holy spirit ) He's everywhere.

Sure why not?

Wesley's Notes for James 3:2

3:2 The same is able to bridle the whole body - That is, the whole man. And doubtless some are able to do this, and so are in this sense perfect.

People's Bible Notes for James 3:2

James 3:2 For in many things we offend all. All are liable to stumble and make mistakes.

These can hardly be excused in the teacher.

If any man offend not in word, the same [is] a perfect man. He who controls his tongue gives proof of his ability to maintain entire self control.

Wesley's Notes for 2 Peter 2:4

2:4 Cast them down to hell - The bottomless pit, a place of unknown misery. Delivered them - Like condemned criminals to safe custody, as if bound with the strongest chains in a dungeon of darkness, to be reserved unto the judgment of the great day. Though still those chains do not hinder their often walking up and down seeking whom they may devour.

People's Bible Notes for 2 Peter 2:4

2Pe 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned. In order to show that judgments on these wicked teachers are sure, Peter cites examples. Even angels when they sinned were subjected to punishment. But cast [them] down to hell. The sinning angels were cast out of heaven. The word rendered "hell" is not Gehenna, but Tartarus, a Greek term used for the place of future punishment. Delivered [them] into chains of darkness. "Pits of darkness" (Revised Version); possibly dungeons of darkness gives the idea. Compare Jude 1:6 Both passages point to a time when angels sinned, fell, and thus became angels of darkness.

divers means different kinds.

Isaiah 60:5, I love this verse.

"Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged, because of the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee."

In my heart I see from the East the Faith of Abraham flowing towards the rising of Christ at his birth. I see the decedents of Judah flowing towards the birthplace, I see the proselytes of Israel flowing towards the birthplace, I see decedents of Abraham and Keturah carrying the gifts in another flowing to the Christ Child. Then from the West, Gentiles flowing towards the Christ Child. The Child being able to accept the flows of the peoples until the end of time as a sea.

Just some evening thoughts....

Some believe them to be Moses and Elijah. Others someone else. It never say who they were. They could be you and I. I would like to be one. No one knows except God.

vain means to boast yourself to be something more than you are. Ordain means to promote someone to do a certain thing.

What does the word vain mean? What is the definition of ordain?

Morning (Nigeria time),

What Ljgood commented on Jas 3:2 was it really relevant to that chapter / verse because I cant see too much relevance to it.....

1/3, not 2/3....

I also believe this chapter cover a number of things Faith, verse 44 says came from behind him and touch the border of his garment. (the woman with the issues of blood), obey, verse 25 for he commands even the wind and the water,(leaving this disciples baffled). And the power of God, which he demonstrates through out chapter 8. If we trust God and live according to the laws there wouldn't be anything with held from us God word says To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God.

Who do preachers thinks the two witnesses or during the tribulation

Were the angels that are spoken of in 2 Peter 2:4 the same angels that are spoken of in Genesis chapter six and were theses angels part of the two third that were cast out of heaven with Lucifer??

Believe on the name of the Son of God and thou shalt be saved. If Christ is the Son of God, then that means that 1) he was before he came, he existed from eternity. 2) That what he came to do is what he accomplished. There are no sinners in hell that Christ died for, every one that he came to save are safe and secure in Him forever. The blood he shed on the cross was all the payment needed to pay for their sins.

What does the bible say about becoming a surrogate? Is it a sin?

Hebrews 2:4. What are divers miracles?

There is one important word that your answer left out..."repentance." I'm not sure which translation of the Bible you have, that might be the difference. But in my Bible V.15-

For thus the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, has said, "In repentance and rest you will be saved, In quietness and trust is your strength."

Hope this helps.
