Does Everyone He Calls Come To Him?

Published: August 31, 2015
Q

You said in one of your posts that God won’t call those who won’t come, but I know there’s a verse in the bible that says the Holy Spirit will quit coming to you eventually if you don’t respond. So how is that not also calling people who won’t come? Please help me understand this.

 


Money And Status In Heaven

Published: August 31, 2015
Q

When Christians are raptured and go through the Bema Seat judgement, we’re rewarded for what we did while we are on Earth for God. Is it possible to grow, to gain more treasure and earn a more prestigious position (governing 5 cities instead of just one) when we are in the New Jerusalem? Or will our actions on earth all we will be rewarded for? Also, do you think the treasure we store up in Heaven might have something to do with a monetary system we’ll we’ll use to buy and sell there?


Why Is the Lord’s Name Translated Into Every Language?

Q

Why was the name of Jesus changed with the translation of scripture? When you translate what I’m saying in my mother tongue into English you don’t also translate my name into English. Why was His name is not kept in its Hebrew form since He was born a Jew?


Where’s Their Kingdom?

Published: August 30, 2015
Q

I find it interesting that everything I read in your responses has the church living in a different location than God’s chosen people for eternity. I’m confused about the kingdom of God. It seems to be offered to the disciples who became part of the church. It says they would be rulers in the kingdom of God. Are the Jews not part of that kingdom?


Wrath Of The Anti-Christ?

Published: August 30, 2015
Q

It seems that people who don’t believe in the rapture see the tribulation time period as the wrath of the anti-Christ only – a persecution of Christians being allowed by God. Is it accurate to say that the tribulation time period is the wrath of God being unleashed after the rapture, and that the anti-Christ is using the time to make himself God while he can?

In a recent post you said that Satan was not a physical being. With which passages from the Bible can you prove this?


Why Create People Who Will Die?

Published: August 28, 2015
Q

I understand that God sees all past present and future. He knows those who will choose to live for him and those who will reject him, even before He creates them. Why would He create someone knowing that they will die and go to hell?


Will We Inherit The Earth?

Q

Can you tell me what it means when it says “we shall inherit the earth” like in the beatitudes – I know that we will rule with Jesus during the Millennium but could you help me understand this better?


Why Did Jacob Cross His Hands?

Q

Re: Genesis 48:12-20.  Could you answer a rather difficult question? What is the prophetic meaning of Jacob’s crossed hands blessing on Manesseh and Ephraim? And, where are those tribes today?


Are The Demons Getting Ready?

Published: August 27, 2015
Q

In Mat 8:29 the demons asked Jesus if He came to torment them before the time. This tells me they may not know the day or hour that Christ returns but they might know when the tribulation starts. If so, the speed at which evil is unfolding causes me to think they do know and have increased demonic activity to meet the appointed time. Any thoughts?
