Are the 10 Commandments only meant for Israel?

After the Second Coming, I understand that the Saved from the Church Age will live in the New Jerusalem while the Tribulation Saints live on earth — Jews in the Kingdom and Gentiles in the Nations. But what will happen to the unbelievers who manage to survive the Tribulation? Unbelieving Jews? Unbelieving Gentiles? Of those two populations, who will live where?

Re: Your article “Between First Fruits and Pentecost.” If as you say “… He knew the Israelites would not (repent). But as I’ve said before, knowing the future is not the same as controlling it”, then how could the Israelites have chosen differently?

My question centers around verse 44 from John chapter 6. The verse reads: ” No man can come to me except the Father which hath sent me draw him and I will raise him up at the last day.” After doing some research I discovered that the Greek word used for ” come” means to accompany and the Greek word used for ” draw” means to drag. What the verse seems to imply is that no one can accompany Jesus unless the Father first drags them to Jesus. I am wondering, in what way is a person ” dragged” to Jesus by the Father and what are the implications of this to us and how we perceive salvation?

I have always been interested in Jesus’ answers to Mary and Thomas as to why Mary was not allowed to touch him after He rose from the dead and why Thomas was allowed to touch His hands. Just because Thomas lacked faith does not give him greater privileges than Mary does it?

I have long wondered if the anti-Christ convinces the world’s armies to war against Jesus when He returns by convincing people that Jesus is an alien coming to destroy the world. What do you think?

My Christian niece had an affair, divorced her Christian husband without Biblical cause, and married her lover. My sister has forgiven them by faith and as act of her will, but the situation still bothers her. There was no forgiveness sought on their part from anyone; she knows that is not a prerequisite, and she must forgive anyway. However, the question is how does that forgiveness “flesh out” in reality; what does forgiveness DO; how is she to treat them, etc? There are three grand kids involved and this has affected them.

I’m pretty sure there’s a pre-trib Rapture but I get a little shaky when I hear about those being raised up on the last day could you clarify that reference for me? Thanks.

1 Chronicles 21:14 says, “So the LORD sent pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.” Why did God kill 70,000 men (not counting women and children?) as David’s punishment? Did these 70,000 deserve punishment, too? That doesn’t sound like a very merciful God to me. It sounds like tyranny. I would sincerely like to understand. I’m a Christian and I hope to get past it, to chalk it up to one of those things I don’t understand now, but maybe I will in the next existence.

In your answer to the “…Rapture seems unfair,” question, you answered, “In OT, people had regular confirmation of God’s existence in the form of mighty acts of deliverance and judgment. After the rapture, God will again show clear evidence of his existence through mighty acts.” Am I drawing an accurate inference from your response to clearly understand that the battle of Ezekiel 38 & 39 can not possibly happen until after, or simultaneously with, the Rapture of the Church?
