Israel, God’s First Born Son?

Published: April 1, 2014 (Originally published: March 31, 2014)
Q

Thanks so much for your wonderful teaching; I have learned much from you over the years. During a Bible study, we were directed to Exodus 4:22-23, where Moses was told to tell Pharaoh “thus says the LORD, Israel is My son, My firstborn. So I said to you, Let My son go that he may serve Me…” Why does God call Israel “My son, My firstborn” in this passage? I know that Israel is God’s wife, but this threw me off.

God or Angels?

Published: March 31, 2014 (Originally published: April 1, 2014)
Q

I have heard many teachers claim that in Psalm 8:5 and Hebrews 2:7 the word “angels” is mistranslated and should be God resulting in the text reading: “… a little lower than God” with the idea being to bolster man’s dominion status. The notion that there’s an error always generates in my mind thought of well if this translation is wrong what else is wrong and that leads to the doubt of the Bible being infallible, the breathed, and inspired Word of God. Others I have heard say that you have to be a Hebrew/Greek scholar because God spoke to his man using these languages and translators have taken liberties. I would like your opinion. Thanks.

Not Sure About The Rapture Any More

Published: March 31, 2014 (Originally published: April 1, 2014)
Q

I grew up being taught the rapture. I don’t feel so sure about it now. Jesus tells the parable one will be in the field, the other gone and so on. He also tells the parable of the wheat and the tares. The tares were taken before the wheat. If the rapture is true, then the people suffering in other countries, why can’t they be raptured out? Why are we any better that we don’t have to suffer but they do? I believe ALL will be tried. What do you think of this?

The Disciple Jesus Loved

Published: April 2, 2014 (Originally published: April 2, 2014)
Q

There is something I have not been able to figure out. Who was the “Apostle Jesus Loved” in the Last Supper? I have long wanted to know who was given such a distinction and how it came about.

You Will Do Even Greater Things Than These

Published: April 2, 2014 (Originally published: April 2, 2014)
Q

Jesus once said if you believe in him you will do what he did and even greater things than he did. I’ve see this verse taken to the extreme whereby people do things that are not necessary in line with the word, claiming that what they are doing doesn’t have to be in line with the word for Jesus said they will do even greater things. My question then is how are we going to know if people are not twisting what God wants us to do if we don’t have to align everything with the word of God?

How Many Temples Will There Be?

Published: April 2, 2014 (Originally published: April 2, 2014)
Q

From reading your different articles along with the Bible, I understand that the 3rd temple to be built, that the Anti Christ will desecrate, will be built supposedly after the Ezekiel Battle. Is that the same temple that will remain when Christ comes back for the 1000 year reign? Or is the 3rd temple destroyed by the Anti Christ and a 4th built in the Millennium that the Jews will do their sacrifices in during that 1000 years? Thank you for your time and answers. I have loved studying God’s Word along with your interpretations.

The Blood Moons And the Peace Treaty

Published: April 3, 2014 (Originally published: April 3, 2014)
Q

I just read your article The Coming Blood Moons. I agree with your thoughts, although there’s a high probability that something of prophetic significance will happen in or to Israel between the spring of 2014 and the fall of 2015. Do you think that it could be the signing of the peace treaty with Israel ? I was reading in Joshua 9 where they were tricked into signing a treaty without consulting with The Lord. The United States is pushing so hard for Israel to sign this treaty, I can see them being pressured into signing before long. What are your thoughts?

The Way It Was Meant To Be. Follow Up

Published: April 3, 2014 (Originally published: April 3, 2014)
Q

Re: The Way It Was Meant To Be. Why is it necessary to “lump” into a general category, “prosperity teachers” and then accuse that “group” of being greedy and spending all their money on themselves? I find this distasteful and not very gracious. My husband follows you and thinks that when I listen to some whom he lumps in with your description, they are “false”. Yet I read your article, and it agrees completely with the lessons that my “prosperity” teachers have taught me!!

Dealing With Difficult People

Published: April 5, 2014 (Originally published: April 4, 2014)
Q

Do you think God puts difficult people in our lives for a purpose? Do you think God wants us to spend more time with difficult people and let friendly people out of our lives? Do you think He puts them there to shape us, to mold us, to change our hearts, and to helps us grow to become more Christ-like (i.e conforming to the image of His Son-which is spiritual growth)?
