    They’re not dead… Luke 20 “But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the passage about the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. 38 Now he is not God of the dead, but of the living, for all live to him.” we do pray to God like...

    They’re not dead, Luke 20:37-38 “But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the passage about the bush, where he calls the Lord the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. 38 Now he is not God of the dead, but of the living, for all live to him.”

    It’s absolutely not that Jesus isn’t good enough for us. We’re not saying God isn’t good enough when we pray through saints. It’s like when you ask a friend to pray for you. That’s not saying God isn’t good enough when you do that. And that still wouldn’t replace praying to Jesus, it’s just a...

    Never felt secure

    We don’t just “pray” to Mary, we pray to all the angels and saints. It’s like asking your friends to pray for you. And who is would more easily get your prayer to God besides those close to him in heaven! And this isn’t at all like a replacement for prayer or acting like God cannot answer the...

    Random Questions; Bible-based answers

    I think your question itself is weirdly phrased. Do you mean intelligent life? Cause humans have only evolved here. Humans originate from earth, we evolved here, God made us here.

    Okay so this is coming from a non typical perspective on this site, I’m a Catholic. I’m absolutely not trying to convert you, I know Protestants think only belief is enough. We believe in belief, but also repentance and staying in communion with the Lord. I think regardless of what you believe...

    Kind of a dumb question but..

    Okay so I’m reading through numbers right now, and we keep going back to the fact that a fitting sin offering is a goat. And since Jesus is also technically a sin offering on behalf of our sins, why do we call him the Lamb of God? Isn’t he kind of the Goat of God? Lol dumb question but I’m curious

    1 Corinthians 7:25-40. What does it mean??

    Oh sorry I’m unclear. Is he telling people not to get married?? Or that marriage distances people from God?

    1 Corinthians 7:25-40. What does it mean??

    25 Now about virgins: I have no command from the Lord, but I give a judgment as one who by the Lord’s mercy is trustworthy. 26 Because of the present crisis, I think that it is good for a man to remain as he is. 27 Are you pledged to a woman? Do not seek to be released. Are you free from such a...

    Why did God kill the firstborn sons?

    Haha this scared me for a minute- I’d forgotten I’d posted these details abt my life! First I want to thank for for giving such a thoughtful reply, but also out of curiousity I wanted to know why you’d recommend not reading the Old Testament until I’m a bit older? :)

    Why did God kill the firstborn sons?

    I absolutely understand the irony of it- how the previous Pharaoh killed all the Jewish male babies. Though morally this is confusing me…

    Question abt Jacob’s lineage

    So I’m finishing up Genesis right now and something struck me as a little strange. Jacob/Israel made Joseph’s son his heir and Judah was not. But from Judah’s tribe comes David, and a long time later Jesus. But Judah wasn’t the heir? Am I reading too much into this? lol but if there is a reason...

    Proverbs 10:18 question

    “He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.” (KJV Proverbs 10:18). If you dislike a person and act kind towards them or as if you like them, is that then hypocrisy? I don’t want to encourage conflict or tensions with that person, so why would it be wrong to...
