God created heaven and earth and everything in them in 6 days. He could have done it in 6 minutes or 6 seconds. Why do you think it is taking Jesus so long to prepare our Heavenly home, the New Jerusalem?

Since at the start, there were “hebrews” and the jewish realm did not start until the tribe of judah existed. So the issue of who is Israel, and the claim that you can’t use the “jewish” description to speak of Israel, then who is Israel? How does one know? And if one is jewish and accepts Jesus, do they become part of the church, or are they part of Israel no matter what?

In your current article you say we will live in heaven with Christ, and yes I understand our home (or mansion) will be made there. How does Revelation 20:4-6 fit into this? If we are reigning with Christ for that 1000 years it must be on earth. God reigns in heaven forever and there is no other need to reign there.

In the Lord’s Prayer, there is a verse that says, “Lead us not into temptation”. Since James 1:13 says that God doesn’t tempt anyone, what is the correct interpretation of this verse?

I have a question on Revelation 12: 1-6. I know the woman is Israel. But, I can’t believe this is talking about the birth of Christ, When we are in the things that are future. Can you shed some light on this scripture?

I enjoy your ministry and website greatly. I have a question. After the rapture the seven years of tribulation begins. I understand why the second three and one half years are called the great tribulation but I was wondering why the first part is called a tribulation period? The Jews are at peace, they have their (false) messiah and they are building the temple. Where’s the tribulation?

This question was derived from watching a video on Youtube. The speaker frightened me by saying that “God is not your good buddy, he is not your friend”. After I watched this video I felt like I lost my only true friend, and it made me feel like I’ve shamed God by praying to him as my friend as well as my Lord. I pray throughout my day while I’m at school or while I’m working and I don’t always bow my head and close my eyes. Is this disrespectful?

I’ve long been interested in the wedding in Galilee as a clue to the rapture or second coming. I found upon researching the “third day” in scripture that the Bible brings out some very interesting facts/events on the “third day.” I’m wondering if you’ve done this study, and if so, if you feel there are clues in scripture re. the rapture or second coming?

I have been under-employed for two years (10 – 15 hrs/wk at minimum wage) in spite of constant submissions of applications for jobs. I am growing more depressed each day because my prayers for local jobs for my wife and myself seem to go unanswered.

While browsing your site for previous articles, I came across the Bible study titled “Forgiveness”. After reading it, I concluded that most likely my anger is keeping me from enjoying God’s blessings. In line with John’s and your teaching, I often invoke 1 John 1:9 only minutes later to find myself awash in the same anger for which I have just asked forgiveness.

I completely understand the concepts presented in your article and I have tried to forgive those against whom my anger is directed but my attempts in the practical application of that forgiveness fail miserably. How can an imperfect sin-filled creature such as myself even begin to fulfill the requirements of maintaining daily fellowship with God?

During the Holocaust, where did Jewish children under the age of accountability go upon death, even if they had been taught the Jewish religion by their parents? This really concerns me greatly.
