The wicked and disobedient from the days of Noah were the Nephelim. It is hard to say what is meant by 'prison' here since Hades is not the same as Tartarus, Sheol,ect. The nature of Nephelim makes it difficult to say where they are before the final judgement.

The rich man was in Sheol and Lazarus was in Abraham's Bosom (a.k.a. Paradise). These are separate from the place of the final judgement.

The book of Judges concerns mankind choosing to do what is right in their own eyes and rebelling against G*d. The book does not show human behavior of which G*d approves but shows accounts of mankind at his worst. G*d does not approve of rape. In the Mosaic Law, rape had the death penalty. The...

You made a choice which was meant to be a significantly life changing decision for you without understanding what that choice really meant because someone close to you chose to 'convert'. Your motivation behind your choice was based off your attachment to this other person and your choice did...

Would you please be so kind as to share with me how you became a Christian?

For how long have you been a Christian, VickyK?

I am sorry, Journeyman. I am a human. I do believe Jesus did suffer more than others who have been tortured. I do believe the Lord was suffering his Father's judgement in our place. Yes, sinners did torture and execute the Messiah in an earthly manner. Yeshua (Jesus) was perfectly capable of...

Yes, the crucifixion was necessary. Yeshua (Jesus) did say, "I and the Father (G*d) are one." Yeshua (Jesus) was the Son of G*d, the promised Messiah, sent to redeem humanity from their fallen state by taking the judgment for every sin that had or ever would be commited by a human being upon...

It is more than not wanting your abusers to suffer due punishment for harming you. The Messiah took all of the punishment for all of mankinds' wrongdoing upon himself before he died on the cross. That was no ordinary execution. This is why we can be saved by believing on Yeshua (Jesus) as our...

Most humans would not have been able to survive the suffering which Yeshua (Jesus) endured even before he reached Golgatha. The reason Yeshua could do so was because he was both the Son of G*d and the Son of Man. G*d turned the sky so dark that no one could see the hand in front of their face...

I almost forgot. Something that everyone will want to remember, whether you are married or not Insurance companies still consider pregnancy a pre-existing condition once she has been pregnant and still use it as an excuse to hike up the cost of a woman's health insurance cost even if she is no...

Hello, Brian. Nice to meet you!

The both of you can agree on a set amount to set aside each month in the budget for gift spending which does not have to be spent each month. This would allow either spouse the ability to purchase a birthday, anniversary or Christmas gift without 'asking permission' to make the spend and...

There was a reason why the Tree of Life was removed from the garden of Eden. Once we accept the Messiah as our savior, then we Spiritually have eternal life with the promise of a resurrection body. Our physical bodies still have to experience death because we still are a fallen being. In the...

Not always.

Unequally yoked refers to the inability to worship with one another because you do not practice the same belief. As for the managing money in marriage, I would highly recommend Dave Ramsey's approach where both spouses sit down together and make a physical budget that accounts for every cent...

That's actually not funny. That should bother you.

Who performed Adam and Eve's marriage? Even though you no longer get taxed extra for being married, how young you are when you get married still has an effect on your economic well being. It is not just the cost of the marriage ceremony, the reception afterwards and the honeymoon. Everything...

The term 'Honeymoon' refers to the European custom of giving newly weds a month's supply of mead (fermented honey and water) in order to insure their marriage would be sweet and happy for a month. So, I suppose the saying 'Well, I guess the honeymoon is over...' really means 'looks like the mead...

I did not make out like someone's husband was a criminal for not believing on a christian forum. Her spouse's lack of faith or turning away from their faith was most certainly not what triggered the 'red flag' for me in what Anamaria1 shared. Please stop what you are doing, Lanolin. Anamaria1...
