My question is about tithing, is it mandatory that my tithing should specifically go a Ministry or Church or can I tithe by say contributing to my friends wedding or helping out in paying bills at my dad’s or granny’s?

I have a question for you. I listened to a great sermon on Justification and Sanctification recently. Would you please define these two words for me?

I have read previous posts that describe God’s promise to bring us back when we have strayed. I have a close friend who has openly rebelled against God after claiming to be saved, even pointing out to anyone who will listen the places where he says the Bible is wrong. If attempting to destroy the faith of others and leading lost souls to destruction is his goal, how can God exist in this man? Is it possible in extreme situations to lose God completely?

Why do you suppose we will need a “house” for all of us? Surely there will not be furniture or a kitchen therein, nor will we need a bed in which to sleep. Neither will there be a need for bathrooms or closets. Does Scripture give any indication as to why this huge complex of 1400 miles X three is being prepared?

I`ve learned more from your website about the end times than all my 60 years of Sunday School combined. I`ve learned about our residence (new Jerusalem) after the rapture. But not much is said about where we immediately go when we die and are we just invisible spirits w/o bodies. I think you have said Jesus is the only one in heaven with a glorified body so far. Does John 14 and Rev. 21 describe heaven before the rapture as well as after?

I was such a bad example of a Christian when I first asked Him to save me, and lived in immorality for 5 years. Although I have fully repented and been faithfully married for decades, and am fully committed to the Lord and careful about my walk, I still worry about the passages in Scripture that say that the unrighteous will not go to heaven. What would you say to people who were washed as I Cor. 6:11 says, but who fell into sin again?

I know there are many scriptures telling us to forgive others. However, can you tell me where we are instructed to ask forgiveness from others. The NT says that if we go to the altar, yet have something against our brother we are to go “and be reconciled,” before we return to the altar. But is there a specific command for us to ask forgiveness from others? (Not saying, “I’m sorry,” but saying, “Will you forgive me?”)

Something has been bothering my mind here. When we get to Heaven/New Jerusalem, will we actually see God as the Father or will He still appear to us as Jesus like He did when Jesus was here on Earth?

In Daniel’s vision he saw in Daniel 7:2-3 the four beasts came up out of the sea. In Dan. 7:17 speaking of the same four beasts, says they arise out of the earth. What do you make of that?

I have seen the 70 years the Jews were in Babylon labeled as them being exiled, in captivity, and in servitude. Does it matter what it was called? Also there were a couple other times that they were also in similar predicaments. This is mixed up for me, can you sort out when, where and why they got themselves into trouble?
