I understand that we are forgiven for our sins, but the OSAS doctrine that is so widely taught is frankly confusing when Christ Himself stated that He would blot our names from the Book of Life if we were to change the teaching of The Revelation (not verbatim). This statement from Christ tells me that He can blot our names from the Book of Life, so why should we believe the OSAS doctrine?

People in the Millennium will be living longer as they did pre-flood, but I was wondering that since they still do die, what happens to them? If they are in Christ, do they then get a glorified body and still remain on Earth? Just wondering where they go since New Jerusalem is where only the Church lives.

In Revelation 14:16 the son of man reaps the harvest of the earth because it was ripe. Are these the people that denied Jesus that are reaped? Then in 14:18 an angel is told to reap the “clusters of the vine” of the earth. Are these two harvests the same thing, and why does the angel need to repeat the harvest if it is the same thing?

I understand we are to pray for the peace of Israel. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you.” (Psalms 122:6) Is it America’s duty to protect her? What else are we to do for Israel?

Many of the instructors at the Bible College I attend agree with the opinion that eternity is a study in opposites for the believer and unbeliever. That being said they also believe that the place in hell for the unbeliever is as positional as the place in heaven is for the believer. What I mean is this. Just as we will be rewarded for the things we do in Christ so also will unbelievers be punished according to how closely they followed the will of Satan in their lives. If believers receive rewards after the rapture we will know why. Therefore won’t those going to hell also know why they’ll receive punishment?

In the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke we have the recount of the transfiguration and the events that took place about a week prior. Luke said the transfiguration event was eight days after Jesus said, “But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.” Matthew and Mark wrote that the transfiguration happened six days after Jesus said this. What is the explanation for the difference of two days in the accounts?

If God has blinded the Jewish people do they still go to Hell? I know that he will deal with them during the Tribulation but what about the ones from the last 2000 years who lived and died before the Tribulation? I’m confused and a little shaky (my beloved friends are Jewish and they ask me often about Christianity and Jewish people going to Hell).

Zechariah 14:17 tells us all the people of Earth will be required to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles in Jerusalem each year. Do these verses talk about the Millennial Kingdom and if so, how do we get there from where ever we are “Ruling and Reigning” on the planet to worship Christ each year during the Feast of Tabernacles?

Re: Sweating Blood. I would like to ask a follow-up question regarding Luke 22:44, which describes Jesus’ prayer on the mount of Olives before His crucifixion. Does the verse actually say that Jesus sweated blood? I’m not questioning whether it’s possible, but doesn’t the scripture say that His sweat was “like” or “as” great drops of blood? Wouldn’t it be more likely that Luke 22:44 was simply using the phrase “as great drops of blood” to emphasize the agony that Jesus was experiencing?

In the Garden of Gethsemane, the Bible says that Jesus was so anguished He sweat blood through His pores. Is this a biological possibility? Even if it isn’t, is the Bible’s account meant to be literal?
