Can Christians be organ donors?

Answered by BibleQ . October 23, 2010 - 8:28 pm

The Bible doesn’t give any direct information about this issue (because organ doning is a modern medical procedure), so we have to look at the principles it presents and try to best apply them in this situation. A basic Biblical principle that we might take into consideration is that Christians are called to be loving to […]

What happens to people who twist Scripture for their own evil designs?

Answered by BibleQ . October 23, 2010 - 2:34 pm

The Bible makes some strong statements about people distorting Scripture: There are some things in them [Paul’s letters] that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures. (2 Peter 3:16) For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this […]

Will the United States play any role in the times of the Great Tribulation?

Answered by BibleQ . October 23, 2010 - 12:14 am 1

The Bible does not mention the United States specifically at all. Presumably, if it still a world power at the time, it will play a role in the events associated with the return of Jesus to earth. But we can only speculate about things that the Bible does not explain.

Where is the prophecy that Christ would be resurrected on the third day?

Answered by BibleQ . October 23, 2010 - 12:10 am 1

This is mentioned in Luke 24:46. … and [Jesus] said to them, “Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead.” 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 may also imply such as prophecy: 3 For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died […]

Where did the name Jesus come from and was that name used in the early church?

Answered by BibleQ . October 22, 2010 - 11:11 pm 1

Jesus is the name given the angel told Joseph to call his step-son: But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the […]

Where was Moses when God called him and how did God talk to Moses?

Answered by BibleQ . October 22, 2010 - 10:48 pm 4

The first recorded time that God spoke to Moses is described in Exodus 3:1-6. Now Moses was keeping the flock of his father-in-law, Jethro, the priest of Midian, and he led his flock to the west side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 2 And the angel of the Lord […]

What is the meaning of Peter’s vision in Acts 10:11-15? Is this to be used as a dietary law?

Answered by BibleQ . October 19, 2010 - 7:52 am

What is the meaning of Peter’s vision? Peter’s vision comes part way through Acts 10. In Acts 10:1-8, a man called Cornelius, a Roman — so somebody who was a gentile, not a Jew — was spoken to by an angel who told him to make contact with Peter. Peter was a Jew, and Jews […]

What is “the perfect” in 1 Cor 13:10?

Answered by BibleQ . October 19, 2010 - 6:54 am 2

…when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. ‘The perfect’ in 1Cor. 13:10 refers to the mature church community. The gifts of the Holy Spirit were given in order to help the young Christian community become established in a dangerous world. Ephesians 4 also talks about the Holy Spirit gifts, and it says they […]

Who are the six demons in the film “Exorcism of Emily Rose” : Cain, Nero, Judas, Legion, Belial and Lucifer?

Answered by BibleQ . October 18, 2010 - 10:39 am 41

These six “demons” in the 2005 American horror film “The exorcism of Emily Rose” are inventions of the scriptwriters. Only one of those names – Legion – is actually connected to the healing of a “demon possessed” man in the Bible. Legion – was the name an insane man that Jesus healed had given himself (Mark 5:1-20). Legion […]

How are we sure God exists?

Answered by BibleQ . October 12, 2010 - 11:48 pm 3

The first thing to say is that the existence of God is different from the existence of, say, trees or chairs. The existence of a tree is usually so obvious that you don’t need to present arguments — almost nobody would dispute the existence of tree that was right in front of them. God is […]
