I'm confused about how Jews who had the law prior to the life and death of Jesus will be judged. What is the basis by which God will decide whether or not they enter into heaven? If they are judged by the law, then obviously none would pass. Or would they? The bible says those under the law...

Or does God just want to see our faith? How can God change his mind? He is always right and has no need to change things. Would God do something whether we prayed for it or not? God know what he is going to do, with or without our prayers. So is the real value of prayer not the things we...

DO YOU CLOSE THE DOOR WHEN YOU HAVE A SHOWER OR USE THE BATHROOM? IF SO, WHY?

Does anyone else have a problem with this? It happens to me all the time and I hate it. I go incredibly bright red. I don't even have to be embarassed for it to happen, and embarassment is rarely what causes it. It happens to me just when multiple people look at me, i.e. when I'm talking...

Romans 2:6-8 He will render to each one according to his works: to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; but for those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will be wrath and fury...

People in remote villages. Asume they have never heard the old or new testament and have never been visited by missionaries, and never will. But they are able to perceive the existence of God based on His invisible attributes in the created world, as says Romans 1:20. In the next Chapter...

I've read a few commentaries.....no answer. Who is Paul talking about in this passage? Is it the whole unsaved portion of the human race? They are only introduced as 'men' and 'them'. Or is a specific group being spoken of here? For kthe wrath of God lis revealed from heaven against...

"I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish." Why is Paul under obligation to preach the gospel to everyone? Thanks.

please pray for me i'm in a really difficult situation at the moment and i don't know what to do. i need divine intervention.

I read a very long article recently which concluded that there was no reliable evidence for the existence of a man named Jesus Christ who lived in the first century and was crucified under Pontias Pilate. Christian historical books and Christian apologetic websites that I subsequently read were...

Is an annulment the same as a divorce for a christian? Ok.....................................................go!

2 Thessalonians 2:13 "But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the firstfruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth". I don't understand what "firstfruits" means. I've searched and can't...

Mine is pink. I hate it. What a weak colour. Yuk. You?

Hello I'd appreciate if someone could explain to me the meaning of Colossians 1:24. "Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church" Thanks :)

I'm considering trying some acupuncture. Some christians advise against it. I understand that the practice originates from unbiblical eastern philosophies, and some of this crazy eastern stuff actually involves conjuring evil spirits, but the practice itself appears to have proven medicinal...

Please pray for my ankle to be healed. I busted it about 10 weeks ago and it isn't improving. I can't run or play tennis or trampoline or any sport or fun stuff. Its pretty depressing. Thanks.

I'm very curious, often skeptical, when people say that God is 'speaking' to them. People seem to say this quite flippantly, and I'm not always sure what they mean. i.e. "God told me to talk to this person" or "God told me to buy this house". For me, I can't recall ever having the experience...

I'm doing my best to understand predestination, but its confusing. I know there's a million threads on this but they don't answer my questions. I have come to the conclusion, that God has predestined some people to be saved. I can't see another way to interpet the following verses: Romans...

Various pasages in the bible point to heaven as a sinless place. I have heard it said that the angels had one opportunity, as we do, to either follow God or rebel, and after making that choice, they can't go back. The bad angels won't get a second chance and the good ones won't want to sin. Is...
