An angel travelled with both Moses and Joshua. We read of at least two occasions when the angel representing the LORD, appeared to Moses. The first time the angel of the LORD appeared to Moses was when he was a shepherd in Midian. Exodus 3:2-5 And the angel of the LORD appeared to him in […]
When a saved person dies, will his body go back to the dust and his spirit go to Paradise?
Not quite. When a “saved person” dies, his body goes back to the dust and his spirit or breath goes back to God who gave it. Ecclesiastes 12:7 tells us this: Ecc 12:7 and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it. We find one […]
What does “to make an atonement with him” mean in Leviticus 16:10?
Does this refer to the laying of sins on the scapegoat (i.e., covering it with the sins of the people) and, if so, why should this be termed “to make an atonement with him”? Yes, I believe this referred to the laying of sins on the scapegoat. Leviticus 16:20-22 explains that Aaron put on the […]

Paul appeared before the following rulers: Jewish rulers (Acts 22:30ff.) Felix (Acts 24) Festus (Acts 25:1-12) Agrippa (Acts 25:13ff.) And possibly even Nero (Acts 25:12)
If you were initially baptised in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit (Mat. 28:19) do you need to be re-baptised because you were not baptized in Jesus’ name (as per Acts 2:38)?
If I understood the question correctly, this is a question about the two differing descriptions applied to Christian baptism. Acts 2:38 talks about being baptised “in the name of Jesus Christ” whereas Matthew 28:19 talks about being baptised “in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit”. The question […]
How did God mix the languages of the people in Genesis 11:7?
And the Lord said, “Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and there confuse their language, so that they may not understand […]
Where is the verse saying someone “will receive a crown upon his appearing”?
You may be thinking of Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him. (James 1:12) or Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the […]
Could the ages listed prior to the Flood contain the month of death also?
Full question: “Could the ages listed prior to the flood contain the month of death also? 1000 = 100 years and 0 months 965 = 96 and 5 months Then after flood the month was dropped” This is an interesting question and, as far as it goes, an ingenuous attempt at solving the perceived problem […]
Where is the verse that has the phrase “Woe to the pastors who have scattered my flock”?
Jeremiah 23:1 “Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!” declares the LORD.

How many titles or names are given to King David?
Here are seven that I could find: Shepherd Now, therefore, thus you shall say to my servant David, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts, I took you from the pasture, from following the sheep, that you should be prince over my people Israel. (2Sa 7:8) Armor-bearer to King And David came to Saul and entered […]
