The Israelites were complaining that they wanted to be like other nations with fancy kings who sat on thrones and led them into battles. But by demanding a king, they were actually rejecting God, who was already their invisible king, more powerful than any human king could ever be. God instructed the prophet and judge, … Continue reading “Who was King Saul? (Part 1)”

The seventh day is not yet finished. Mankind has been living through the seventh day.  As you noted, Yahweh uses, “there was evening and there was morning” at the end of each of the six creative days.  Yahweh blessed the seventh day, and He is now resting from his creative work. During this seventh day, mankind is learning … Continue reading “Genesis 1:31 (WEB), "God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day." This ending statement is made after each creative day. But on the Seventh day the statement of "there was evening and there was morning, a seventh day" is not made by Elohim Yahweh. Why? What's the meaning or implication of this? (India)”

Without knowing the details, we feel unable to judge. However, the Bible does teach how a church should be organized. First, the congregation should study the structure of the New Testament church. All Christian members were responsible for selecting the leaders of the church. Congregations elected (by the raising of hands) the elders and traveling preachers … Continue reading “I'm in a church where the pastor controls everything. The pastor doesn't allow the leadership to make suggestions or contribute to church matters. There are no elders, no deacons and board. The leaders don't have any idea of how the church finances are managed. The pastor makes all the decisions and wouldn't allow anyone to question him. Is this biblical? (Australia)”

There has never been a Christian country. God has never made a covenant with any Gentile country to be His Christian nation. Jesus said the “gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations…” Matthew 24:14. He never prophesied that a nation would be converted.  All nations … Continue reading “Which is the first Christian country written in Bible? (India)”

Summary: If the human race could not remember their past lives, it would be fruitless to resurrect them. They would only fail to obey again. Their memories with sin will teach them “to love righteousness and hate wickedness.” Psalm 45:7 Discussion: 1 Corinthians 15:22-25 explains the order of the resurrection. Jesus was the first, then … Continue reading “What does the Bible say about the 2nd resurrection (general resurrection)? I'm given to understand that all will rise, my question is; what does the Bible say about when we rise, will we be made as new again or will we still remember our past lives including family and friends? If we are made anew and don't have any memories of the past life, how will we be judged if we don't have those memories? Many thanks, I look forward to the response and I am grateful for your app!

As your question suggests, the original Greek word “quickly” means “shortly, that is, without delay, soon, or (by surprise) suddenly,…” (from Strong’s Concordance).  Now, let's look at 2 Peter 3:3-9 (Young’s Literal Translation), “This first knowing, that there shall come in the latter end of the days, scoffers [not sincere questioners, doubters], according to their … Continue reading “Revelation 22:20 (WEB) He who testifies these things says, “Yes, I come quickly.” Amen! Yes, come, Lord Jesus. Yahshua (Jesus) promised that he would come QUICKLY. But it's past 2000 years already. Isn't Yahshua (Jesus) late in his second coming? Or is the word Quickly wrongly translated in English language? (India)”

Sin is lawlessness, disobeying God’s righteous, the just law of love. Jesus summarized God’s law in Luke 10:27 (NIV), “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”  The Apostle Paul explained God’s law with … Continue reading “What is sin? Who is a sinner? What causes us to run away from sin? How can we overcome sin? (Cameroon)”

Since we do not live in Nigeria, we cannot comment on the specific effects of greed in that country. However, we can comment on the consequences of greed and how God views greed. Greed by definition is selfishness and a focus on one's self. It directly violates God’s law to “love your neighbor as yourself…” … Continue reading “What are the effects of greed in Nigeria? (Nigeria)”

The Bible tells us that God’s home is heaven.  We have a number of verses that tell us this: “Our Father who is in heaven”(Matthew 6:9); “For God is in heaven and you are on the earth,” (Ecclesiastes 5:2); “The Lord is in His holy temple; the Lord’s throne is in heaven” (Psalm 11:4).   When Solomon built the temple in Jerusalem, he recognized … Continue reading “Please, why is God in heaven and not in earth? (Nigeria)”

Eternity refers to time, time with no end.  God is the only being Who has no beginning and no end, so He is the epitome of eternity. People (not the Bride of Christ) who are resurrected in the Kingdom will have an opportunity to live forever. The very reason Jesus came to earth and became … Continue reading “What is eternity?
