62 | Did Jesus go to Hell after the crucifixi | 1 Pet 3:18 | WalkingTalkingBible | 119753 | ||
"For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth." (Matthew 12:40) Some may think this was the grave, but Jonah didn't lay in a grave for three days and three nights. This is what Jonah had to say, "And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the LORD, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice." (Jonah 2:2) Jesus wasn't condemned to Hell, like someone who dies unsaved, He went to "fill all things" (Ephesians 4:10b). 1 Peter 3:19 is one verse that shows what Jesus did while He was there. Also, see Ephesians 4:8-10. WalkingTalkingBible |

63 | Temple | John | WalkingTalkingBible | 119679 | ||
The temple (tabernacle in the O.T.) is a place of Holiness. God had the children of Israel to build Him a temple, which is where the ark of the Covenant was kept. The ark of the Covenant was a typical figure of the presence of God. The temple was built so that God could dwell among His people (Exodus 25:8). God is Holy and nothing unholy can even come near Him. Jesus says in Matthew 21:13, "It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves." The purpose of the temple (for us, church) is to praise and worship God, and His "house must be reverenced. In this dispensation, the Grace dispensation, our bodies are also the temples of God. We know that sin separates us from God (Isaiah 59:2), so that's why we have to die daily, repent, fast, and pray to keep ourselves worthy of the presence of God (Holy Ghost, anointing). God will not dwell in anyplace unworthy or unclean. 1 Corinthians 6:19; Romans 12:1 WalkingTalkingBible |

65 | Is remorse necessary for forgiveness? | Luke 17:3 | WalkingTalkingBible | 119662 | ||
For a Child of God, remorse is not necessary for forgiveness. Matthew 5:44 says, ". . . bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you. . ." The perpetrator may be evil, but sin is sin. God let's us know that "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23)." Just as God saved us, He can save someone who is yet unsaved. When someone is unsaved, they are, of course, not of God and do things that are ungodly, there is no limit as to what evil to expect of them (nothing surprises me anymore). This is a soul that needs Jesus just like the rest of us and that's why God says we have to love them regardless of their unrighteousness (which is longsuffering). Forgiveness is a conditional promise: if you forgive, you will be forgiven; "For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses (Matthew 6:14-15)." Just as God had compassion on us, we are to have compassion on others. Jesus gave His life even when we were not remorseful. Forgive this person, for your sake, and pray for him/her. I hope this helps, WalkingTalkingBible |

66 | Is John Elijah? | Luke | WalkingTalkingBible | 119550 | ||
Jesus is saying that John the Baptist is come in the "spirit and power of Elijah." "And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord." (Luke 1:17) Luke 1:11-17 shows us that the angel, Gabriel, had given the message to Zacharias (John the Baptist's father) telling him that his son would be the forerunner to the Messiah.

67 | is dating right in gods eyes | Bible general Archive 2 | WalkingTalkingBible | 119258 | ||
My brother just got married on the 17th of this month to a beautiful woman of God. When he came to Christ a year ago, he came with a broken heart. He told me that he wanted a wife, a real woman to love him. I told him that since he was saved now that God would like for him to have a saved wife and to ask God for a wife (as opposed to searching in the world for one). Five months later, my brother says that God told him who his wife was. One of the young evangelist also became very interested in my brother and later she told me that God had spoken to her and said that this guy was her husband (she didn't even know that he was my brother). They began dating and in one year, they are now married. I think the most important thing is to wait on God. Also, as Rowdy advised, stick to Christians. God says in 2 Corinthians 6:14-18, "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel (unbeliever)? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you. And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty." Since the Bible doesn't deal with dating directly, we have to know our God. He wants us to trust Him for everything and He wants to be first in our lives. If the motive for dating is to find a soul mate, then I would advise you to ask and wait on God because He wants you to be happy and He will prepare you for your mate and prepare your mate for you. If you are dating someone who God has sent you, then you're getting to know each other. "Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD." Proverbs 18:22 I hope this helps. WalkingTalkingBible |

68 | i just dont understandthe verse. | Matt 1:1 | WalkingTalkingBible | 119196 | ||
Matthew 10:21, "And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death." Jesus had commissioned the disciples to go preach, "The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. (v.7)" They were to go to "the lost sheep of Israel" who were still under the law of Moses. They didn't know the Messiah had come and would be opposed to the teaching that He had come in the flesh. It is blasphemy under the law for anyone to say that he is God, and blasphemy was punishable by death. Telling these people would cause great division and that's what the verse is saying. See also Luke 12:51-53. Some would want to continue to live according to the law only and some would choose to follow Jesus, causing division. I hope this helps. WalkingTalkingBible |

69 | IM PREACHING ON SUNDAY!!................ | Bible general Archive 2 | WalkingTalkingBible | 119194 | ||
Hi, SAZ! I know what you're dealing with. Last year I had to teach about being single and saved, and I didn't know what to say. So, first, I asked God to give me what He wanted me to tell His people (He, only, knows what they need to hear). Then I fasted, and as I fasted, I wrote down what I had learned from God being single and saved. Then, I received my message (the same day I was going to speak) and many received it. I think what is most important is that you rely on God to give you want He wants you to preach. Use your own experiences as a young single Christian and don't worry about what you think they might want to hear. For Scripture, I would use 2 Corinthians 5:17, Romans 6:4, and Luke 1:37. I would back those up with the story of Rahab, the harlot who was saved, and her family (Joshua 2; 6:17,23-25; Hebrews 11:31) and the conversion of Saul (*to Paul, Acts 9). These are just what I would use, God may give you something totally different. I'm praying with you, WalkingTalkingBible |

70 | Did God create all evil in Isa. 45:5-7 | Bible general Archive 2 | WalkingTalkingBible | 119096 | ||
The evil spoken of in Isaiah 45:5-7 is calamity, as physical and not moral. We have no control over tornadoes, earthquakes, some sicknesses, etc. We do have the choice to sin or not. God didn't let Satan take over the world, man did by sinning against God. When God created man, He created him in His image (Jesus) and His likeness (without sin) and gave him dominion over everything on earth (Genesis 26-28). When man sinned, dominion was lost to the devil and the sin separated man from God (Isaiah 59:2). Because of His love for man, Jesus gave His life so that man can be reconciled back to God if he chooses Him as Savior. WalkingTalkingBible |

72 | Let your women keep silent? | 1 Corinthians | WalkingTalkingBible | 118885 | ||
I believe 1 Corinthians also applies to churches today. A woman (and men) should keep silent in reverence to the the one(s) God has called to lead the church. For example, in prayer service, where the bishop or preacher is leading the service, I notice a lot of women speaking in tongues and praying very loud so that the preacher can't be heard. This is not orderly. In the Corinthian church, which was predominantly new converts, they were blessed with the gifts of the Spirit. The problem was that the women were speaking over the men and it caused a lot of confusion. That's why they were told to keep silent in the church (also, the men were told to keep silent if there were no interpreters). Everything has to be done decently and in order. Women can speak in church, as long as it is orderly (when called to speak by the preacher). I do not believe 1 Corinthians 14 should be used to tell women that they should not speak at all in the church. WalkingTalkingBible |

73 | what makes you a prophet? | 1 Corinthians | WalkingTalkingBible | 118881 | ||
For the our age, church age (dispensation of Grace), one who operates in the gift of prophesy - it is a gift of the Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:4, 10, 28 - 31). It is also called a "calling" (Ephesians 4:1-4, 11-12) in which God reveals divine messages to the prophet to be told to the members of the body of Christ. This message would be something that only God can know, as opposed to psychics who only speak of what has already been spoken. To a prophet God reveals things to come and those things come to pass. In our dispensation, a prophesy is spoken for our spiritual growth, our service to souls, and edification (Ephesians 4:11-12). WalkingTalkingBible |

74 | what passages bind and rebuke satan | NT general Archive 1 | WalkingTalkingBible | 118386 | ||
Matthew 16:18-19 says, "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock [the Revelation of Christ] I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." Matthew 4:1-11 shows us how Jesus rebuked and resisted the devil by using the Word. Jude 9 shows Michael, the archangel, rebuking Satan Mark 16:17 shows us that in the Name of Jesus there is power against the devil. "And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover Luke 10:19 says "Behold, I give unto you power [authority] to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you." I know there are more. . . WalkingTalkingBible |

75 | description appear in the old testament | Rev 1:14 | WalkingTalkingBible | 118263 | ||
Nothing describing His race or nationality. All we know is that Jesus was Jewish. I agree totally with Rowdy's response. Titus 3:9 (KJV) says, "But avoid foolish questions, and GENEALOGIES, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain." I understand that knowing Jesus' race is worthless to our salvation and His love. WalkingTalkingBible |

76 | Jesus had skin of bronze, hair of sheeps | Rev 1:14 | WalkingTalkingBible | 118227 | ||
In Revelation 1:11-16 Jesus is described (verse 14 says "white as wool"). However, these descriptions are symbolic to power, purity, glory, and judgment, not race or nationality. WalkingTalkingBible |

77 | When did the apostles receive the H S ? | NT general Archive 1 | WalkingTalkingBible | 118190 | ||
They were filled with the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost. To fully understand this, there has to first be a clear understanding of who Jesus is. Jesus is the Word of God in the flesh. John 1:1, 14 says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." Jesus said in John 15:4, "Abide in Me and I in you." He's saying to all believers, "Abide in My Word and My Spirit will be in you. While in the flesh, He dwelt with them (Immanuel), but in Spirit, he dwells in them. He had to first ascend (1 Timothy 3:16). After that, He is manifested as the Holy Spirit. WalkingTalkingBible |

78 | soul of unsaved people | Bible general Archive 2 | WalkingTalkingBible | 118154 | ||
This soul will immediately be separated eternally from God. It will go to hell (Hades/Sheol) which is like a "holding place" until the final judgment. Then, it's to the Lake of Fire (eternal separation from God). WalkingTalkingBible |

79 | The age of accountability | Bible general Archive 2 | WalkingTalkingBible | 118153 | ||
This is a very good question. I like to say, "Mind of accountability" because salvation doesn't really have an age limit. When a young soul can understand that God is a living being, along with being able to acknowledge that he/she is a sinner, then he/she is accountable. If that soul never comes to know God, then he/she will separated from God eternally. But a little one who cannot understand this and has no idea even what sin is, won't be held accountable when he/she dies. These souls will see God. This brings to mind Revelation 20:12, "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works."

80 | How long should a person fast? | Bible general Archive 2 | WalkingTalkingBible | 118151 | ||
There's no set length of time to fast. As children of God, we know we need to fast often to keep the flesh under the subjection of the will of God. When you plan to fast, set the length - 24 hours, 3 days, a week, etc. Then stick to it. Also, some fast from certain things: TV, foods, different activities. We know that Jesus fasted for 40 days and nights (Matthew 4:2). Sometimes on a long fast, I may plan to drink water every 6 or 12 hours, but that's me and that's not everytime I fast. It's whatever you're lead to do (by the Holy Ghost). Plan also to study and meditate on the Word while you are fasting. If you are fasting to hear from God, or to get closer to Him, even maybe to kill out something ungodly you found in yourself, you want your fast to be successful. After you begin to fast, you'll be more comfortable in setting your length. I hope this helps some, WalkingTalkingBible WalkingTalkingBible |
