I married a man in our church a year ago. We have been in so much strife here lately that I have been considering leaving him. I just don’t want to be in strife and miss the Rapture. If I were in strife with my spouse could this cause me to miss the Rapture?

I believe in God and I consider myself a Christian. Jesus is in my heart and I pray for forgiveness every night. But in my past I’ve done some terrible things. Am I forgiven enough to go in the rapture? If so will my toddler come with me? And if she does, will we be in heaven together with her as my child? I have read that our children won’t be our children and we won’t know them anymore. That makes me very sad, is that true?

Jesus said, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.” This verse is used to prove that one must be born again to see the Kingdom. But does it not also mean that one must be born the first time? If this is correct, doesn’t it mean that aborted babies are not in heaven?

I have been reading your series on a study of Revelation. In your commentary on chapter 5, you state “God’s law requires that a next of kin redeem that which a family member has lost.” Where in scripture is this stated as God’s law? I ask because what you have presented fills many gaps for me. I just want to be able to back that up with scripture since it is the foundation of the point you present.

Regarding Rev. 3:11: “Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown.” My question is which crown is this referring to? And what can be done to take the crown away?

Do you see any connection between the Oil and the Wine that the Good Samaritan poured into the injured man’s wounds, compared to the command in Revelation 6 during famine ” See thou hurt not the Oil and the Wine ” ? One commentator said that the latter passage referred to Christians being protected during the tribulation, but that doesn’t square with the Antichrist being given power to overcome the Trib Saints. What say you ?

I remember where after Jesus was resurrected He ate fish with his new body and He still had fingers and toes and so on.My point is,He did not change into some type of ooze or blob etc.My 1st Question is,when we get to heaven,if I loved Basketball here,will I still be able to love it there and maybe play it? 2nd,Is it possible that if I played a Sport in Heaven my body may not get tired as easily as the one does here?Maybe extended amounts of energy because there is no sin nature that is killing our body throughout the day?After all,are not the things we see here copies of the REAL things in Heaven.Thanks for this Wonderful website!

What was the reason for having clean and unclean animals ie. Leviticus 11 and Deuteronomy 14:3-21? Has this been done away with or is it still in force? And was it just for religious reasons or were there health implications/benefits also?

Could you please send me information concerning (Esther’s) 12 months of beautification? What is the significance?

Bless you for your ministry. I’ve just read the book of Esther and I’m wondering if you see a connection with Ezekiel 38? Apart from references to “un-walled villages”? in both, Esther seems to foreshadow Ezekiel 38 in the sense that the Jews are threatened by enemies who seek to annihilate and plunder them and yet it is these enemies who are destroyed. I also found it interesting that when the Jews had destroyed their enemies in Esther that they deliberately chose not to plunder them in return. Do see any connection between Esther and Ezekiel 38?
