Why does God allow slavery in the Old Testament? The reason the Bible talks about slavery is that slavery was a very common phenomenon in both Old Testament and New Testament times. It is only natural that the topic would come up, both from a legal stand point and simply as a common part of […]
Can you explain to me clearly about the “Holy Trinity”, which the Catholics believe in. Is there a Holy Trinity? I believe my friend Douglas Jacoby has done a great job of answering this question already and would send you to www.douglasjacoby.com and click on archived material for an answer. Let me give you a […]
Isn’t Jesus Christ supposed to be more precious than God’s project of creation? (I mean the creation in Genesis) Was God pleased to let his son be crucified and face death etc…? Didn’t God know the future and realize that people would reject Jesus and crucify him? You are describing the situation exactly. Yes, Jesus […]
In the Bible it is said and we take that as right that God is not physical, he is out of time and space and that he is the spirit. But why does the Bible say that Jesus is sitting at the right hand of God or that we will sit, sing and clap with […]
I’ve heard a lot of people say that Islam is a religion of war instead of peace, because of Mohammed’s actions, history, references in the Koran, the terrorists etc. But the God of the Bible murdered and let his people slaughter many peoples who were not living by his standards. How can I explain that […]
Can you help me understand the meaning of the Sabbath Day in Hebrews 4? In Hebrews 4, the Hebrew writer is using the analogy of the Sabbath rest to the future rest for those who enter heaven. To bring this home you really need to go back to Hebrews 3:12-19. In this section, the writer […]
What is the difference between the Hebrew name Yeshua, Yahweh and God, Jesus? The bible says that it is through his name that we are saved. Then why do we call him Jesus instead of his Hebrew name, Yeshua? First, let me be humble and confess that I am absolutely not an expert in either […]
When God picked the few people to be his followers, do we know how he did that? And the people who live in a place where there is no possible way to convert into Christianity, are they guaranteed to go to hell? If he loves all his children equally, shouldn’t he give them all an […]
How does Christianity explain the different races? And what about the fact that early humans were shorter on average? My friends say that we have evolved to grow taller. Is this true? To put it simply, the Bible does not explain the different races. The difference between the races has to do with genetic material […]
Where did God come from? You ask what is really more a question for the philosopher. This is a question which philosophers have pondered from the time belief in God or even in “gods” has existed. In other words, you ask a question which has been asked since there were people. Let me give the […]
How can people say the power of the Holy Spirit was for the apostles and not for today? What scripture would support such a claim? That would depend on what is meant by the claim. If someone claims that we cannot receive the Holy Spirit today, they are obviously wrong. As it says in Acts […]
In the Old Testament, God is often given animal sacrifices 1) What is their significance ? 2) Why is not it being practiced in Christian churches today? Answer: The signigicance of the OT sacrifices depends on which sacrifice you are talking about. There were the; 1. Sin Offering. Atonement for a personal willful sin. (Lev […]
God tells us to be merciful and loving to our enemies (Ex 23:4-5, Mt 5:43-48, Lk 6:27-35). But God on the other hand will send his enemies to hell for eternity (Lk 16:19-26, 9:43-48, Jude7, Rev 20:14-15). To state the same point differently, in the Old Testament we are taught justice in an eye for […]
I have been a disciple for 5 years. During this time, a few of our brothers and sisters have passed away. Many times I have heard either the lead evangelist, or staff say that, that brother or sister is in heaven. This has bothered me for some time, so I have begun to study it […]
Miracle of Science or Perspective of the observer; Did the sun stand still? God is a God of order, yet he performs miracles outside of the natural laws that govern our world. From a scientific perspective, even a miracle would not allow the sun to suddenly simply stop in the sky. That would mean that […]
Could the characters “Cain and Abel” and “Jacob and Esau?” be perhaps symbolic or representative of a species, not actual individuals? Or be real individuals that have symbolic meaning for different species that have existed in the past? Personally, I would hold out that Cain and Abel (and Adam and Eve for that matter) were […]
I would like to know difference between choice and fate in our Christian walk. Starting from Adam to Judas. This is certainly one of the most significant theological/doctrinal debates in the history of Christianity?indeed in all religions. Given that God is all-knowing and all-powerful, and given that he exists outside of time, it seems logical […]
I was posed with a question that I did not know exactly how to answer, one of many that I am unable to answer is; “If you discovered a truth that was truer than the Bible, would you go for it?” In other words, if you were to discover there to be a higher truth […]
Since Jesus is both God and a man, how can the death of Jesus (and his experience in Hell) make sense? I understand that Jesus had to go there to pay for ours sins but how can God be almighty and in Satan’s hand (even if it is 3 days). I will attempt to give […]
The bible says in Romans that people without the Bible (or those who have never heard the message) will be judged by their conscience. My question is about those who have read scriptures in the Bible or attended church sincerely, but have never had a true disciple of Jesus Christ show them the true way […]
I have been a Christian for three years and a half, so I believe in the Bible. And I WANT to believe in the Bible. Couldn’t I change the truth to please myself and to justify my faith? How can I be sure that I am following the right way? I have read some apologetic […]
“If God is (1) perfectly loving, (2) omnipotent and (3) omniscient, why is evil so prevalent in the world? The free will defense explains ‘moral evils’ such as murder and rape, yet it fails to explain ‘natural evils’ such as earthquakes and cancer. Is this because Satan has free will as well?” You are right, […]
“Could you clarify how ancient races outside the Middle East had the opportunity to learn about God? E.g., what about the 40,000+ year-old aboriginal culture of Australia, Pacific islanders, or the Aztecs?” ? Several inquirers Without the scriptures or the Hebrew prophets (who addressed a number of Middle Eastern nations), the gentiles had the opportunity […]
