What does Revelation 3:15,16 mean: "I know thy works, that thou art neither cold or hot. So then because thou art neither cold nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth."

This statement is addressed to the church in Laodicea, a wealthy city in Asia during the time the Apostle John wrote the book of Revelation. The city’s great prosperity contributed to the Christian church’s sense of self-sufficiency described in verses 17. “Because thou sayest, I [...]

1 Peter 4:6 – Who were the dead that the gospel was preached to? And when and by whom? How will they be judged in the flesh and live to God in the spirit?

In the preceding verses, the Apostle Peter says, "Speaking evil of you who shall give an account to Him that is ready to judge the quick and the dead." From these words it is manifest that he is addressing the followers of Christ who [...]

Who are the dead who die in the Lord, and how can a dead person die? – “And I heard a voice from heaven saying, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from hence forth.” `Rev. 14:13`.

What became of Adam when he died; did he go to heaven or hell?

We may be sure Adam did not go to heaven at death, because 3,000 thousand years later, Jesus said, “No man has ascended into heaven” (John 3:13). God judged and sentenced Adam to death when He said, “for dust you are and to dust [...]

2 Peter 2:4: "For if God spared not the angels when they sinned, but cast them down to hell, and committed them to pits of darkness to be reserved unto judgment." The marginal reading says "hell" is the Greek "Tartarus." What does that mean?

The specific word translated hell here is the Greek word tartaro?. This is the only time it’s used in the Bible, and it is a verb. It only applies to fallen angels, not human beings. So, this is less a specific address and more of an [...]

Please explain 2 Peter 3:16: "As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other Scriptures, unto their own destruction."

The Apostle Peter starts 2 Peter 3 by using the term “beloved” (verse 1) to address his audience. In doing so, Peter indicates that he intends his words for those who, like himself, have dedicated, or consecrated, their lives to God. Continuing through verse [...]

Did Jesus die a ransom for many or a ransom for all?

Which is it? “Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.” (1 Timothy 2:6) OR: “Even as the son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.” [...]

Have People Received Final Judgment for the Past 6,000 years or will they have an Opportunity for Judgment and Restitution on Paradise Earth?

Although many Christians believe that people will be judged based on whether they accepted Christ before they died, the Bible actually teaches that people will be judged based on their behavior, progress and decisions during the Millennium. Rev 20:12 And I saw the dead, [...]
