Dedication to Theophilus 1 Inasmuch as many have undertaken to compile a narrative of the things that have been accomplished among us, 2 just as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word have delivered them to us, 3 it seemed good to me also, having followed all things closely for some time past, to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, 4 that you […]

In Mark 7:19 does Jesus himself declare all meats clean or is that a comment by Mark?

Answered by BibleQ . March 24, 2020 - 11:18 am

The question in Mark 7:19 is whether the final phrase of the verse is part of Jesus’ original sentence, or whether it is a comment by the author of the Gospel, drawing a conclusion from what Jesus said. View 1 – Jesus said it: The King James Version takes the conclusion as being part of […]

What happens to those who have died and never had the chance to hear the gospel?

Answered by BibleQ . August 16, 2014 - 12:20 am 3

This is a really tough question to answer because I do not think the Bible gives us sufficient information with which to answer it. Certainly Jesus never discusses those who die without hearing the gospel message. Whenever Jesus discusses the judgment he refers to two categories of people: those who did the will of the […]

Is it necessary to rebaptize someone after they have learned the gospel more accurately?

Answered by BibleQ . July 24, 2012 - 9:15 pm 1

It all depends on the circumstances and understanding of the person at their previous baptism. Before baptism there must be repentance and belief (Acts 2:38; Matthew 28:19-20; Mark 16:15-16), so any previous “baptism” is not really baptism if it was not accompanied by any sort of belief. Thus baptism of babies is not baptism at […]
