• How Big Will the NEW JERUSALEM Be on the New Earth?

  – We’ve all heard about the gates of Heaven referred to as “the pearly gates,” yet in the Bible this is actually a description of the twelve gates of the New Jerusalem, a very large city that is presently in the spiritual realm of God, aka Heaven (Revelation 21:21).

• Will People Marry and Have Sex in Eternity?

  Christ said “At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven” (Matthew 22:30). He didn’t say they would be angels, just that they wouldn’t marry or be given in marriage (not to mention they’d be immortal like angels, if you compare the verse with the fuller account in […]

• Does the Bible Acknowledge GERMS?

  Yes, the Bible does acknowledge germs, albeit not directly.

• Why Do Unclean Spirits Seek Out DRY PLACES?

  Christ said impure spirits naturally seek “arid places,” which means dry, waterless areas (Matthew 12:43). This isn’t referring to places that are physically dry, like deserts, but rather spaces that are spiritually dry; that is, places where God is absent. You see, the LORD is likened to Living Water in the Bible — God is The Fountain of Life who gushes forth life […]

• How Can Ghostly Sightings or Activity Be Explained?

  Although I’ve encountered people who were demonically possessed/oppressed, I’ve personally never seen an apparition or experienced ghostly activity. But some individuals insist that they have seen paranormal goings-on and it’s highly doubtful that all of them are lying. How can such things be explained from a Scripture-focused Christian perspective? Let’s start with the question: Are […]

• Did Moses & Elijah really appear to Christ on the Mount?

    The “transfiguration” refers to the occasion where Jesus took Peter, James and John up a high mountain whereupon the Lord was gloriously transfigured before them.

• Was Samuel Raised from the Dead to Speak to Saul?

    Samuel was the last of the judges and the first of the major prophets (1 Samuel 3:19-21). After Samuel died, ungodly King Saul was desperate for counsel and so went to a medium to get word from the dead prophet, which was a wicked act strictly forbidden by the LORD (Deuteronomy 18:10-13). The question […]

• What Are the “GREATER WORKS” Christ Said Believers Will Do?

  The Lord said “Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father” (John 14:12). What are these “greater works” that believers are supposed to be doing? Since one could hardly do […]

• Are Christians Commissioned to RAISE THE DEAD?
