I got your email address from land over baptist I believe and I have a couple of questions. Why does the church still promote the name Jesus when Acts 4:12 says there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. The j was just invented 500yrs ago so no one was calling on the name of Jesus up until 400yrs ago give or take 100yrs. There is no scripture that allows man to change the name either.


I don't understand the question.

Acts 4:10-12 says,
10Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
11This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.

12Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

We are saved by Jesus Christ. It seems pretty straightforward to me.
What is your interpretation of Revelations 2:9 and 3:9

John is writing to the church at Ephesus against people undermining his teachings. Most likely those trying to force circumcision and kosher eating on newly converted gentiles.

Revelation 2:1-2 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;
2I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:
and also 13:9-10.

Anyone who says they truly understand that part of John's apocalypse is lying. No one truly understands all the symbolism. It is either something that happened and he is putting it in code or it's some really scary stuff that is going to happen. I don't know.
Do you believe that the children pays for the iniquity of their fathers as It says in Isaiah 14:21.


The Ten Commandments say they do.

Exodus 20
3Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
8Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
12Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
13Thou shalt not kill.
14Thou shalt not commit adultery.
15Thou shalt not steal.
16Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
17Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.


On the other hand, God tells Ezekiel that He will not punish the children for the sins of the father.

Ezekiel 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

Then again, Paul says we are all being punished for Adam and Eve's sin and everyone from the time of Adam until the Law was given to Moses went to hell.

Romans 5:12-14 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
(For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
Jeremiah 16:19 is meant for some people when the truth comes out so ask you, who are the children of Israel today,

Paul often speaks of that concept in his epistles. There are too many verses to quote, but I will go with Philippians 3:2-3.

2Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.
3For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.


In Christ,

Levi


Christians are superior because we possess an understanding that unbelievers lack. It is through the Power of Jesus only the converted mind is able to understand what is going on in the world; what the Communists are really up to; what Satan's intentions are. Most unbelievers do not even believe in Satan and cannot understand his tactics.
