1 | Is Satan a fallen angel? | Num 22:22 | BibleVerse | 189243 | ||
The word “devil” means someone who tells wicked lies about another person. “Satan” means an enemy or an opposer. These are terms given to God’s chief enemy. At first, he was a perfect angel in heaven with God. However, he later thought too much of himself and wanted the worship that rightly belongs to God.—Matthew 4:8-10. This angel, Satan, spoke to Eve by means of a snake. By telling her lies, he got her to disobey God. Satan thus attacked what is called God’s “sovereignty,” or position as the Most High. Satan questioned whether God rules in a worthy way and in the best interests of His subjects. Satan also brought into question whether any human would remain loyal to God. By doing this, Satan made himself God’s enemy. That is why he came to be called Satan the Devil.—Genesis 3:1-5; Job 1:8-11; Revelation 12:9 |

3 | why should I be concerned about what is | Matt 6:19 | BibleVerse | 185317 | ||
By reason of his Creatorship, God is the Owner of all things. Hence, it is only right that we worship him and use whatever assets that we may have in a way that is pleasing in his sight. (Ps. 95:3-6) This means our using these assets to help others spiritually and materially. In the case of wealthy Christians, they were urged to make their fine works that went on record just as abundant as their possessions. By using what they had in relieving the distress of others, they would be laying up treasure in heaven. In fact, all devoted Christians, by keeping active in helping persons in spiritual and physical need, lay up treasure in heaven that will yield rich dividends in the form of rewards from God. Hope that answers your question. | ||||||

5 | Explanation of Matthew 6:22-23 | Matt 6:23 | BibleVerse | 183556 | ||
In his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus called attention to the tremendous influence that the figurative or spiritual eye can exercise on our entire life course. He said: “If, then, your eye is simple, your whole body will be bright; but if your eye is wicked, your whole body will be dark.” (Matt. 6:22, 23) A simple eye is one that is focused on a single purpose—doing God’s will—not being distracted by undue anxiety over material things. Hope this is what you were looking for. | ||||||

8 | Why should Man not cover his head? | 1 Cor 11:7 | BibleVerse | 180297 | ||
The apostle shows, conversely, that the man should not wear a head covering when taking the lead before the congregation, as when praying or prophesying. It is his normal position under God’s arrangement. For the man to wear a head covering in these instances would bring shame upon his own head. It would also indicate disrespect for Jesus Christ as his head as well as for the Supreme Head,God for man is “God’s image and glory,” originally made as God’s representative on earth. He should not obscure this fact by wearing a head covering. The man was created first, prior to the woman; the woman is “out of man” and was created “for the sake of the man.” Her qualities are an expression of the man’s honor and dignity, just as the man’s qualities are a reflection of the honor and dignity of God. Therefore the Christian woman should be happy to acknowledge her subordinate position by the modesty and subjection she displays, and she should be willing to represent this visibly by wearing a veil or other material as a head covering. She should not try to usurp the man’s place but should, rather, uphold his headship.—1Co 11:4, 7-10. | ||||||
9 | What is Tabor and Hermon? | Josh 19:22 | BibleVerse | 179332 | ||
. An outstanding mountain in the territory of Issachar on its northern boundary. (Jos 19:17, 22) In Arabic it is called Jebel et-Tur; in Hebrew, Har Tavor. It is situated about 20 km (12 mi) W of the southern end of the Sea of Galilee and about 8 km (5 mi) ESE of the city of Nazareth. Isolated from other mountains, Tabor rises abruptly from the Valley of Jezreel to an altitude of about 562 m (1,844 ft) above sea level. From the WNW it looks like a truncated cone, and from the SW like the segment of a sphere. From its summit, a rather flat elliptic area about 0.4 km (0.25 mi) wide from N to S and twice as long from E to W, it affords a magnificent view in all directions. The impressive prominence of this mountain probably explains why the psalmist mentions Tabor and Mount Hermon together as outstanding examples of the Creator’s majestic craftsmanship. (Ps 89:12) God also used the striking massiveness of Tabor—standing alone in the Valley of Jezreel—to illustrate the impressiveness of Nebuchadnezzar upon his entering Egypt with a mighty military force.—Jer 46:13, 18. |

16 | Was Job a judge? | Job 29:16 | BibleVerse | 174248 | ||
Job was an impartial judge (in his day) but you won't find him listed in the book of Judges, if that is what you mean. He carried out justice and championed the cause of widows, fatherless boys, afflicted and helpless ones. From Job 29:12-17 we read: "Because I delivered the poor who cried for help, And the orphan who had no helper. The blessing of the one ready to perish came upon me, And I made the widow's heart sing for joy. I put on righteousness, and it clothed me; My justice was like a robe and a turban. I was eyes to the blind And feet to the lame. I was a father to the needy, And I investigated the case which I did not know. I broke the jaws of the wicked and snatched the prey from his teeth." Interestingly, he also performed duties as a priest on behalf of his family. (Job 1:4,5) |

17 | need to know who was buried with abraham | Gen 49:29 | BibleVerse | 171555 | ||
Note what Jacob says here: Gen 49:29 Then he charged them and said to them, "I am about to be gathered to my people; bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite, Gen 49:30 in the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought along with the field from Ephron the Hittite for a burial site. Gen 49:31 "There they buried Abraham and his wife Sarah, there they buried Isaac and his wife Rebekah, and there I buried Leah-- Gen 49:32 the field and the cave that is in it, purchased from the sons of Heth." Gen 49:33 When Jacob finished charging his sons, he drew his feet into the bed and breathed his last, and was gathered to his people |

19 | what are the gifts of the God | 1 Cor 13:2 | BibleVerse | 170775 | ||
There were certainly many gifts from God's spirit... i.e. speaking in Tongues. However, the apostle Paul makes a strong point under inspiration in the last verse of 1 Cor:12: "But earnestly desire the greater gifts. And I show you a still more excellent way." - 1 Cor 12:31 The very next verse in the very next chapter shows the 'greatest' gift! 1 Cor 13:1 "If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal." Love was also extolled as foremost by Jesus Christ. And, he instructed us how to display it (for as we know actions speak louder than words) when he answered this question: "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law? And He [Jesus] said to him, 'YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.' This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is like it, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.' - Mt 22:36-39 The ultimate importance of this gift to display love is found in 1 John 4:8 "He who does not love has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did know Him], for God is love." (Amplified Bible) |

20 | how does God see me | 1 Sam 16:7 | BibleVerse | 169704 | ||
Not from the outside but from the inside. Yes, God can see us physically, but unlike mankind in general, God looks beyond the physical appearance to peer right into our heart. In the scriptural account that follows, Samuel thought that God was going to select one of David's brothers as King Saul's successor. But, as you'll read, while men (even the spiritual man Samuel!) tend to focus on the exterior, God focuses on the heart: 1 Samuel 16:7 "But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart." KJV |
