God intends that man will live forever, and has shown this throughout the Bible from Genesis to Revelation.
When God created man, He told Adam, "…From any tree of the garden you may eat freely; but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you […]
Most people are unaware that little evidence supports “Mt. Sinai” in the Sinai Peninsula as the famed mountain of Exodus. Several recent popularizations on the subject have suggested an alternate site of Jabal al-Lawz, or Mt. Musa (Moses) in Saudi Arabia. Local Arab tradition upholds this as the site for the giving of the law. […]
“Tetrarch” literally signifies one who is the governor (arch-on) of one-fourth (tetra) of a domain or kingdom. The Greeks first used the word when Philip of Macedon divided Thessaly into four "tetrarchies." Later on the Romans adopted the term and applied it to any ruler of a small principality that was permitted to retain some […]
Jesus cared for his own mother. (Since there is no mention of his step-father, Joseph, in the Gospels, it is thought that he died while Jesus was young.)

At first glance one might interpret that for women to be acceptable to God, they should always be extremely plain, very simply dressed, and unadorned with neither jewelry nor elaborate hairdos in order to be acceptable to God. However the next verse, is […]
One of Jehovah’s attributes is wisdom. His wisdom planned and ordered the entire universe. By wisdom, He designed the earth as a home for animal life – including the human family.
In Proverbs 8, the Logos (Jesus before he became human) also is personified by “wisdom”. These verses teach that the Logos was continually by the […]
“Though he were a Son yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered and being made perfect he became the Author of everlasting salvation unto all them that obey him.” Hebrews 5:8-10
The phrase ‘learned obedience’ is from Strong’s #5214 and it means attentive hearkening. Jesus learned to listen attentively to the Heavenly Father […]
We are not given a specific reason in scripture as to why the Apostle Paul did not marry. So we can only make presumptions based on Jesus’ advice and the advice Paul gave in his epistles.
