Solomon used God's wisdom to understand the natural world. 1 Kings 4:29-34 (NIV), “God gave Solomon wisdom and very great insight,…He was wiser than anyone else,...And his fame spread to all the surrounding nations. He spoke three thousand proverbs and his songs numbered a thousand and five. He spoke about plant life, from the cedar [...]
No, but it may be an act of Satan or his demons. Is Satan real? Does he exist? Yes. Satan first disrupted man’s life when he lied by telling Adam and Eve they would not die if they were disobedient. (Genesis 3:4) Ever since, we have lived with the painful consequences. Satan enjoys anything contrary [...]
When God made His covenant with Abraham, He gave this promise: “I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse…I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the [...]
No. Christians may not fight physically. It's devilish when people hit, beat, or rob us. But many have suffered for righteousness. Remember the great Apostle Paul’s hardships. 2 Corinthians11:24-27, “Five different times the Jewish leaders gave me thirty-nine lashes. Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I was stoned…I have faced danger from rivers [...]
The Bible does not teach divine healing for the followers of Jesus in the present life, nor at this time for anyone. Christians are to lay down our lives in sacrifice. We obey and glorify God in all of our hard experiences; we are not to ask for the healing of our bodies. Romans 12:1, [...]
No. God had made a covenant with Abraham and his descendants to give them the land of Canaan. Genesis 13:14-15, “…God said to Abram, Lift your eyes now and look…northward, southward, eastward, and westward; for all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants forever.” Years later, Jacob and his sons [...]
No. We should not pray for our enemies to die. We are to love our enemies. Matthew 5:44-45, "But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of [...]
Many today believe that the dead are not dead, but are really more alive than ever. They do not realize that they are believing the original lie taught by the Serpent, “that you will not die, but you will be like God” Genesis 3:4-5. Satan uses scriptural parables and dark sayings, taken out of context, [...]
The nation of Israel received the Law Covenant fifty days after the Passover in Egypt. Thus, historically, Pentecost (meaning 50) was very important. However, Pentecost in the New Testament is even more significant. At 30 years of age, Jesus became Christ (meaning Anointed) when He was anointed with the holy Spirit at His baptism. [...]
No. Dead people are really dead. The vision that the woman medium saw and spoke with was not the prophet Samuel. It was a demon pretending to be Samuel. Remember, a few years earlier, Samuel had said to Saul, “The LORD has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today and has given it to [...]
