Thank you Mr. Kelly for everything your doing. You’ve brought a lot of people to Christ over the years including me. I’ve been saved for several years now and I’ve learned an awful lot since finding your site.

If the rapture doesn’t happen within the next 5 to 10 years are we to assume Israel becoming a nation was not the sign to start the end times and we aren’t that generation to see the second coming?

If so what and how are we supposed to know when this generation is. By all accounts there would be no way of knowing. What is your thinking on this. Thanks again for everything.

I want to do my part to witness to others, because I want to meet Jesus soon, as soon as possible, and I wish to help “speed-up” the Rapture by helping bring others to Christ.

I’m kinda shy though, and I don’t know how to bring up Jesus well in conversations with random people. I try to pray for my family members, friends, and others who don’t know Christ, but what more can I do to witness?

What happens to our salvation when we backslide?

I really need your advice. Briefly, my wife had several affairs and I forgave her each time but she finally divorced me and married another man. They moved into a house 10 minutes away. After 5 years of living in the same neighborhood with them, I had a nervous breakdown and had to leave town. Now it’s 35 years later, and my son bought this house from his mom and lives there with his wife.  He has asked me to come and stay with him. I miss my son so much, but the thought of spending time in that house makes me feel physically sick and spiritually disturbed. I have forgiven my ex wife, and in the last 3 years have started praying regulary for her salvation.  Jack I can forgive but not forget as I’ve suffered such pain and loss. As a Christian I have forgiven as best I can, but I can’t bear the thought of moving into the home of the person who abused me? Does this mean my forgiveness is not complete? Thank you for your advice Jack.

At the Second Coming of Christ, will all the Jews living at that time profess faith in Christ or will some recognize Him as Lord while still living in rebellion against Him?

Great site. Henry Blackaby asks in his Seven Realities For Experiencing GOD this question: What ways other than Faith have you tried to earn GOD’s approval? I thought that was the only way needed, Are there other ways than Faith needed?

Five years ago I left the Mormon faith because I came to receive Christ as my Saviour. I was and still am married to a Mormon man. In my heart I feel that I should follow scripture and stay with the unbeliever I am married to, since divorce is not approved by God. But scripture also says to be not yoked with unbelievers.

My husband has no qualms about me being a believer, but prohibits me from talking “religion” in the home, or discussing it with his family. (He is a non-participating member of his church) I sometimes feel very restricted about sharing the “good news” of Jesus because of my husband. I feel it is Biblically correct to follow his request since he is the head of the home.

I do not want to cause problems concerning the marriage because I also feel that by staying in the marriage, God may be using me to reach my husband. Sometimes I feel like I am between a rock and a hard place. Could you please share some insight concerning this situation? I would very much appreciate some input.

I have a question concerning Mark 16:15-18. These are basically the red letter statements from Jesus about the signs that accompany believers. My question really centers around verse 17. The Lord says “..and these signs will accompany those who believe” NIV. He then lists off the signs in verse 18.

I have personally never seen anyone perform any of these signs, yet I myself and many of my brethren are believers. I have heard an argument say that miracles of the Holy Spirit such as this were only given to the Apostles and first century disciples to help jump start the church. Is there any scripture to back up this claim? That sounds like something passed down so as not to offend believers. Am I wrong to assume that as a believer and with enough faith I could heal the sick, raise the dead, and command mountains to move and they would do so whether first century Apostle or last century Christ believing Electrical Engineer?

I certainly wouldn’t be offended by the notion of my lack of faith to perform these miracles. Indeed, I would welcome it as much to learn and grow in faith. I would even rejoice to see another do such things for their great faith in the Lord.

My son asked me a question about apparent conflicting accounts of the crucifixion in the books of Matthew, Mark and Luke. In two of these accounts it says the criminals crucified with Jesus both cursed him but in Luke the account says one rebuked the other for cursing Jesus and was saved. Can you you answer this important question for us?

Hi Jack, I wrote to you a while back but did not receive a reply, so I would like to resubmit my question. In all of your years of studying the bible, have you ever found in scripture where God told a man to take a second wife for any reason? Do you believe that it was ever God’s idea for polygamy to take place or man’s idea and God allowed it because of man’s lustfulness?
