The Virgin Birth
Please give me a study report about the virgin birth (Isaiah 7:14) and its fulfillment in the New Testament.
The Truth About Predestination
The Bible states that God "predestines" Christians for a future with Christ in Heaven and that he does NOT predestine others to Hell; however, does this mean that only a few of the Christians on Earth were predestined by God and the rest "happened" to come to Christ by the work of these Christians and the Holy Spirit? Or were ALL the people who God knew would become Christian through His omniscience thus "predestined" by Christ?
Thinketh No Evil
In 1 Corinthians 13, what is meant by the phrase "..thinketh no evil,.." and how does that relate to Biblical charity?
Tribulation Salvation
When the Great Tribulation comes, how can people be saved? Is it still by faith or plain works?
The Threshingfloor
Except for the reference in Matthew 3:11, the term "threshingfloor" is found only in the Old Testament. Its use there indicates there is a particular significance in a "threshingfloor". 2 Samuel 24 tells of King David buying a threshingfloor, to build an altar on it. Why a "threshingfloor" and not a field or some other structure? I believe God has a purpose in every word in His Bible. What's the significance in this usage?
The Testaments
Is the Old Testament specifically the animal sacrifices while the New Testament is strictly the shed blood of Christ for forgiveness?
Synoptic Gospels
I am searching for lessons on the synoptic gospels. I hope to answer the following questions: 1. Why are three so similar and John is not 2. What specific stories are told in Matthew, Luke and Mark and how are they similar and how are they different? 3. Why are Matthew, Mark and Luke referred to as the synoptic gospels? Can you provide some resources to answer my questions?
The Spirit of Man
When a man dies, where does the spirit go? If the "spirit" of man is the one that gives the believer the knowledge of God, then does the "spirit" of an unbelieving man have knowledge of God?
Speaking in Tongues - Are Tongues for Today?
This question deals with the sign gifts of Mark 16 (snake handling, drinking deadly poison) and 1 Corinthians 14.
Sin Nature
How do you describe one's sin nature? How do we inherit this nature? In what ways are we sinners?
