There are many NAMES in the scripture. Some very prominent and others are just names. Just as today, many times there is more than one individual with the same name. But God had them all put into scripture for a reason.
Temptation The desire to do something, especially something wrong or unwise.
Psalm 95:8Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
Matthew 6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. Matthew 26:41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. Mark 14:38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak. Luke 4:13 And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a season. Luke 8:13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away. Luke 11:4 And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. Luke 22:40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. Luke 22:46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. 1 Corinthians 10:13There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. Galatians 4:14 And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus. 1 Timothy 6:9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. Hebrews 3:8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. Revelation 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
The KEY verse is really 1 Corinthians 7:19Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.
The Covenant God made with Abraham concerning all his male descendants
A physical ritual given to Abraham to pass on to all his male descendants. Acts 7:8 And He (GOD) gave him (ABRAHAM) the covenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat the twelve patriarchs. Scripture to study: In Scripture, Circumcision always referred to the Jew: John 7:22-23 Acts 7:8 Acts 10:45 Acts 11:2 Romans 2:25-29 Romans 3:1 Romans 3:30 Romans 4:9-12 Romans 15:8 1 Corinthians 7:19 Galatians 2:8-9 Galatians 2:12 Galatians 5:6 Galatians 5:11 Galatians 6:15 Ephesians 2:11 Philippians 3:3 Colossians 2:11 Colossians 3:11 Colossians 4:11 Titus 1:10
In Scripture, uncircumcision referred to the Gentile or those that were cut off from God: Romans 2:25-27 Romans 3:30 Romans 4;9-10 1 Corinthians 7:19 Galatians 2:7 Galatians 5:6 Galatians 6:15 Ephesians 2:11 Colossians 2:13 Colossians 3:11
Colossians 3:11Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
Barbarian (in ancient times) a member of a community or tribe not belonging to one of the great civilizations (Greek, Roman, Christian). An insulting word for a person from an uncivilized culture or a person with no manners.
Scythian also called Scyth, Saka, and Sacae, member of a nomadic people, originally of Iranian stock, known from as early as the 9th century bce who migrated westward from Central Asia to southern Russia and Ukraine in the 8th and 7th centuries bce.
Both need to believe in Christ, His death, burial and resurrection.
1 Timothy 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
1 Corinthians 6:6But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.
1 Corinthians 7:14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
2 Corinthians 6:14Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
The Believer professes that the Lord Jesus died on the cross, was buried in a tomb and rose again after 3 days and 3 nights (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) and confesses HE is God (Romans 10:9).
Acts 11:26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. Acts 26:28 Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.
The only two places in scripture that Christian is used. It was originally meant as a derogatory term.
Today it means “a person is a believer in Christianity”, “a follower of Christ’s teaching”.
A Non Christian is a person who is not a Christian
An attitude and style of life that acknowledges God’s claims on human life and seeks to live in accordance with God’s will.
2 Corinthians 7:10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. 2 Timothy 3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. Titus 2:12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
What is an ungodly person? Not accepting God or a particular religious doctrine; irreligious; atheistic; sinful; wicked; impious; not conforming to religious tenets or canons: an ungodly life.
Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Romans 5:6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 1 Timothy 1:9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
To be holy means to be set apart or separate from sin and evil.
1 Corinthians 3:17If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. Ephesians 1:4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: Titus 1:8 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;
Leviticus 20:7Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God. Leviticus 11:44-45 For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy. Peter writes to believing Jews: 1 Peter 1:15-16 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
Definition of unholy. 1 showing disregard for what is holy : wicked. 2 deserving of censure an unholy alliance. 3 very unpleasant : god-awful an unholy mess.
1 Timothy 1:9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, 2 Timothy 3:2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
