Q

I have a question that I cannot seem to find an answer to and I hope you can help. Is there any scripture or inference in scripture that Lucifer may have been the first of the angelic beings created? Any light you can shed on this would be helpful.

Am I Going To Heaven?

Published: August 27, 2013 (Originally published: November 4, 2011)
Q

A co worker told me I am not going to Heaven due to the fact the Lord had already assembled the 144,000 gentiles that would be going to Heaven and she was one of them. I to this day don’t understand how she could say that to me when I feel in my heart I am saved and have asked the Lord cleanse me of all the sins of my life.

Stop Debating And Start Praying

Published: April 25, 2022 (Originally published: March 2, 2011)
Q

My son is a Jehovah’s Witness and he wants to talk about our differences. We have gotten on the subjects of Why Jesus is God and KJV Bible vs World Translation Bible. So far we just go round and round. I’m beginning to feel it is futile to do all of this. Is the Holy Spirit the only one who can convict him? Do you have any suggestions as to what I should do?

Could Michael Have Saved Us?

Published: July 6, 2023 (Originally published: July 10, 2011)
Q

Would the archangel Michael be considered a “Perfect” being without blemish etc. and if so, could he have paid the penalty for our sins if he had come down in human form and lived a sinless, blameless life. This is of course what the Jehovah Witnesses believe. I do not believe that the Bible teaches this but I am curious as to your thoughts.

Is Serving In The Military Biblical?

Published: February 22, 2016 (Originally published: February 26, 2016)
Q

My problem has to do with serving in the military. When I graduate, I plan on joining the marines. The problem lies with my Jehovah’s Witness father. He believes that by me joining the marines, voting, and getting involved in other “worldly” things, I’m serving Satan. He brings out their “reasoning from the scriptures” book to twist God’s word around. He gets angry and yells about how I’m “a servant of the devil”, and threatens to have noting to do with me.

I could live with this, even though we are very close, except for the fact that this would keep me from seeing my younger sister. I know, in the bottom of my heart, that God has a plan for me that involves the military, and I have asked Him multiple times if this is His will, and He has confirmed it every time. What verses in the Bible can I use to try and persuade my dad that the marines are okay, and is there any hope of convincing him that they are not satanic? I want to praise God for giving me a great mother who is a strong christian woman, and who kept me straight as I grew up!!

Understand The Signs Of The Times

Published: December 5, 2008 (Originally published: December 4, 2008)
Q

I wanted to comment on your article about Mr. Obama possibly being the anti Christ. I agree with your article except I want to point out one thing that Christians seem to do that is so wrong and unscriptural. My husband and I came out of 10 years of Jehovah’s witnesses and I am very leary of anyone setting dates. I can’t count how may times I have read articles that mention certain dates as “the one” and those dates have come and gone and we are still here and all we have done is to make people not want to believe anything we have to say. I am born again and have been for a great many years, but I still cringe when I hear some one give a date as to the end, even tho they quickly add that “maybe” or “I could be wrong” or some such thing. I don’t think that these authors realize that there are many baby Christians out there that believe what they read, and then they are disappointed or angry or bewildered when the date passes and nothing happens. Just wanted to put my two cents worth in. We are going home, and only the Lord knows when.

What Can Keep Us From Being Saved?

Published: July 31, 2009 (Originally published: July 30, 2009)
Q

My question: When I became a Christian at 19 it was because someone told me about Jesus Christ dying for my sins. I didn’t know anything else except I wanted Him as my Lord. I built my doctrine from there by reading the Bible and attending churches and fellowships.I’d like to know what you believe can keep a person from actually having been saved.
