Kingdom of God – Bible Q

Will there be animal sacrifices in the Third Temple in the Millenial kingdom age?

Answered by BibleQ . April 17, 2023 - 8:05 pm

As BibleQ does not have an answer on this question we duplicate here an article by George Booker: Animal sacrifice in the Kingdom? It is proposed, first of all, to consider the main issue: the fitness of animal sacrifice in the millennial kingdom; then, secondly, to outline an alternative view to the traditional interpretation […]

Is the kingdom of God only future or present also?

Answered by BibleQ . September 19, 2021 - 9:15 pm

Most of the references to the kingdom of God in the Bible are future. However there are references to the kingdom, in some sense, existing now. Colossians 1:13, the two present tense beatitudes “theirs IS the kingdom” (Matt 5:3, 10), and John’s present tense statement “in the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient endurance that ARE in Jesus” (Rev […]

What will happen to babies and children when Jesus returns?

Answered by BibleQ . May 11, 2017 - 11:16 pm

This question is usually prompted by the biblical teaching of a judgement day for mankind when Christ returns. More recently the question is also prompted by the commercial success in the USA of the ‘Left Behind’ Christian fiction novels by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins, which present Protestant dispensationalist End Times teachings such as a “pretribulation”, […]

In John 14:2 Jesus said he goes to prepare a place for us. Why will we need a place/room/mansion in the Kingdom?

If the kingdom is on earth, what does “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven” (Matt 5:3) refer to?

Answered by BibleQ . July 16, 2013 - 6:42 pm

The expression “kingdom of heaven” is equivalent to the expression “kingdom of God”, which is used in the parallel account in Luke (cf. Luke 6:20). The word “heaven” in the expression “kingdom of heaven” does not refer to the location of the kingdom, but the authority of the kingdom. The expression “kingdom of heaven” is […]

What’s the interpretation of “the meek shall inherit the earth” (Ps. 37:11; cf. Mat. 5:5)?

Answered by BibleQ . July 6, 2013 - 3:01 am

The phrase ‘the meek shall inherit the earth’ is from Psalm 37:11. Partly, the psalm is about how wicked people will be destroyed but that God’s people will receive the earth as a gift from God. Ultimately, God will take steps towards this when he sends Jesus back to the earth to bring his kingdom […]

Will there be a need for sacrifices in the new temple? (Ezekiel chapters 40-48)

Answered by BibleQ . May 21, 2013 - 1:48 am

In the New Testament we read that “it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins” (Heb 10:4) and that “we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all” (Heb 10:10). And yet Ezekiel 40-48 seems to speak of a future temple in […]

What did Jesus mean when he said “some who are standing will not taste death before they see the Kingdom of God come with power”? (Luke 9:27)

Answered by BibleQ . October 12, 2012 - 8:05 pm

The next two verses are helpful: 27 But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God.” 28 Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray. 29 […]

What is Hebrews 4:1-7 describing?

Answered by BibleQ . April 21, 2012 - 10:03 pm

Hebrews 4:1-11 Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it. (2) For good news came to us just as to them, but the message they heard did not benefit them, because they were not united by faith with […]

If God had a political affiliation, what would it be?

Answered by BibleQ . December 9, 2011 - 10:12 pm 3

What a great question! This is because it highlights some important truths for Christians. Would God be on the side of the conservatives, or the liberals, or perhaps the libertarians? Is God a socialist or a capitalist? Clearly, none of these. God does have a political agenda. When he is ready to, God will give […]
