No Sex In Heaven. Follow Up

Published: March 25, 2012
Q

Re: No Sex In Heaven. I do believe it is written that “there will be neither male nor female” in heaven. That pretty much takes the worldly desires away. Like you said, it will be better than we can imagine.


Did Enoch Die?

Q

I recently heard a Bible teacher on TV say that Enoch died and then was resurrected before ascending. I have never heard this before; I have always believed he was taken alive to heaven. What is your view?


Paradise And Heaven

Published: March 23, 2012
Q

Jesus was hanging on the cross between two thieves and he told one of them that this day he would be in paradise with Him. But at the tomb on the third day Jesus told Mary Magdalene not to touch him because he had not yet ascended to his father. So how were they in (Jesus and the thief) in paradise if he had not yet ascended until the third day. Aren’t paradise and heaven the same?


That Was Then, This Is Now

Published: March 22, 2012
Q

Recently there was an article in the news about a Muslim girl who was raped and then forced to marry her rapist. The girl just committed suicide. I said to myself: what a barbaric religion. Then the same article points to a similar scenario in the Bible (Deuteronomy 22:28). I was shocked to find this in the Bible. Deuteronomy does not say that the girl was against marrying her rapist but it does not say the girl was willing either. It does seem she had no say in it. Please comment on this, it is very disturbing.


Separation At Babel

Q

Speaking of the confusion of tongues at Babel you have said, “I believe God first separated the people by physical appearance based on their family lines.” Do you have biblical doctrine or logical support for this claim?


Don’t Believe In The Rapture?

Published: March 20, 2012
Q

There is a question that has been troubling me. If someone is a born again child of God but doesn’t believe in the Rapture, will that person still be taken? If he believes that the Church will go through the Tribulation to be tested and purified to be made “safe to save” does that show a lack of faith and salvation, or just a different understanding of the relevant scripture?


The Church At The Time Of The Rapture

Published: March 19, 2012
Q

Some say that the end times church will be glorious and without spot or blemish, others say there will be a great falling away and the end times church will be for all practical purpose so small that when the rapture comes it will be barely noticeable. What is your position?


Full Number Of Gentiles

Published: March 16, 2012
Q

The word Gentile can refer to any non-Jew, pagan, heathen, infidel, as well as Christian, so I’m wondering if perhaps the phrase “full number of the Gentiles” from Romans 11:25 refers to the time when that one final person denies Christ and fulfills the cup of iniquity rather than being the last Gentile to accept Him What is your opinion of this?


How Long Will The False Peace Last?

Published: March 16, 2012
Q

I understand the beginning of the 70th week of Daniel will be a time of peace. According to Revelation 6, the 4 horsemen show up before the beginning of the Great Tribulation in Revelation 13. Do you have an idea of how much time of peace there is before the calamities of the horsemen begin?


What Makes Us Different?

Published: March 15, 2012
Q

My question is, in the Bible it states that “the Devils also believe and tremble”. What is the difference between our belief that God is God and their belief? If they are full of sin and so are we what is the difference. Why am I saved when they’re not? The answer is probably right in front of me, but I can’t figure this one out.
