What does the number two mean in the Bible?
The Bible states that God is one, known as the 'shema' found in Deuteronomy 6:4. But the Bible also uses the term 'Elohim' (Genesis 1:26) which is a plural 'Majestic' noun. Instead of letting men define the term, always let the Bible interpret itself. In John1:1-2 read the following: In the beginning was the Word (Logos who became Christ) and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. So this plural noun 'Elohim' had 2 beings - The Father and the Word who would become the Son of God.
Two then are the current members of the Godhead. Think of it as a family with the Surname God currently with two beings but will soon have billions more via mankind as the Bible clearly states in many places.
What do Pentecostal Christians believe in?
We believe that first of all, our god is one God and not part of some fictitious Trinity. Nowhere in Scripture does it mention God being three persons. Take a look at Deuteronomy 6:4. What does it say about God. Hear O Israel, the LORD our God is one LORD. Secondly, we believe that in order to enter into the kingdom of God you must receive the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues as described in Acts 2:4 and live a godly life. We baptize in Jesus' Name as directed by Matthew 28:19. We are also characterized by our standards for holiness

Can anyone on ssi get on stimulus payment?
One of the highlights of President Obama's recently signed American Economic Recovery and Reinvestment Act was the announcement of a $250 stimulus payment to individuals who currently receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Social Security benefits, Veterans benefits or Railroad Retirement benefits. To get the $250 you must meet the following criteria: * Currently receiving Social Security, SSI payments, Veterans benefits or Railroad Retirement benefits. * Must have been eligible for benefits at any time in November 2008, December 2008 or January 2009. * The person receiving the SS or SSI must have an address of record in one of the 50 states, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam or the Northern Mariana Islands. The SSA (US Social Security Administration) is going to pay all eligible Social Security and SSI beneficiaries by late May 2009, so you should get your payment by no later than the first week of June 2009. The one-time payment will be a separate payment, which will not be included in your regular monthly benefit payment. You will still get your regular monthly payment amount. The extra $250 payment will be paid to you in the same method that is currently used to your Social Security or SSI benefit. If you currently receive your regular benefit by check, your one-time payment will be made by check. If you receive a monthly direct deposit or Direct Express® debit card payment, that is how you will receive your one-time payment.

What is the difference between Pentecostal and Baptist hymns?
Well, it depends on the individual church. Some Baptist churches sing the same songs as most Pentecostal churches (except for songs that talk about Holy Spirit baptism--unless it's a Charismatic Baptist church). And, some non-Pentecostal churches don't sing songs about the blood of Christ. Other than that, in general, the songs are about the same.

One does not have to be ordained to become a minister of God. Anyone who has a testimony of Christ may go about preaching what knowledge they have gained though study and prayer. So called ministers today are given that title through the schooling they have received by some religious organization. A man must be called of God, or one of His servants, who have been duly ordained and authorized to set a man apart as one holding the authority to minister the word of God.
Why did Bishop William Ellis go to jail?
Bishop Ellis pleaded guilty to not filing a tax return not for stealing money. He was never found guilty of stealing any money. His church was well aware that the money was being used by Bishop Ellis and were fine with it. It was one parishoner that had a problem w/it and set out to destroy this man. To this day, Bishop has never set foot in a jail, and his church stands behind him!
What is the story of Job in the Bible?
The Book of Job introduces Satan, not yet as the adversary of God portrayed in later Christian belief, but as a 'son of God' or angel, whose role was to prove the righteousness of people by tempting them to do wrong.
The Book of Job is a fable, probably intended to set an example of devotion to God. God twice gave Satan a challenge to have Job curse God, first by destroying his family and his property (1:8,11), then by afflicting him with a terrible disease. If Job cursed God, he would be judged as evil, yet in this story it seems that God and his loyal assistant, Satan, were the wrongdoers.
After Job passed the test, the Book of Job says that God demanded of him whether he thought he was as great as God himself (chapters 37-41), but this is a part of the narrative that some say was probably extracted from a more ancient text. At first God was angry with Job for being so utterly righteous, demanding of him where he was when God created the world. He then said (40:2): "Shall he that contendeth with the Almighty instruct him? he that reproveth God, let him answer it. " Job showed great calm and diplomacy in dealing with the Lord.
Because Job had shown his true devotion to God, he was compensated for his great losses, with vast new wealth and long life.
Another View:
You will find that verse sic in the NIV reads, "Now there was a day when the sons God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came among them." For someone who does not study the Bible (like the person who asked the question) it may seem that Satan was also a son of God at the time, but this is not the case. The word Satan actually means adversary and the first book of the Bible (Genesis) tells the story of how Satan got his name and why he is no longer a son of God.
The writer of the book of Job does not present it as a fable but as a true story that also illustrates the true work of our adversary. Satan is presented throughout the Bible as a person who accuses human beings of breaking the law of God. The consequences of this breaking this law is death. Satan seeks the death penalty for all human beings as all humans continually break God's universal law. God seeks to give humans a way to escape the death penalty by allowing His Son Jesus Christ, to die thus fulfilling the death requirement for human beings if they choose to take advantage of it.
Satan's accusation against Job was that Job only adheres to the principles of God's law because God is bribing him with protection and wealth not available to others, principles such as being kind and fair and concerned for the well-being of others which Job displays throughout the story. Job proves that he actually believes that being kind and fair and concerned for the well-being of others is right and he is going to continue to live by those principles even if the father and promoter of right principles should kill him.
It is important to note that God did not employ Satan to challenge Job. God allowed Satan to test Job so that Job's name could be cleared from the false accusation that he is a hypocrite.
Because Job did not cave, he proves that he is not a hypocrite. He actually believes what he preaches. Many today believe in doing the right thing only if it's convenient. The book of Job is not about devotion, it is about good vs evil. It's about a hero that does what is right regardless of the personal consequence. It's about a true warrior who fought the battle until it brought him to his knees but never bowed to the father of evil.
