Are there not remains of buried cities in Egypt containing evidence, pictorial drawings, hieroglyphics, etc., which antiquarians are in general agreed evidence a civilized, prosperous, and opulent people living about 7,000 years before the Christian era?

Can you explain the words of the Apostle Paul (1 Corinthians 7:14): "For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the (believing) wife and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the (believing) husband; else were your children unclean (sinners under condemnation, unjustified, unrelated to God, aliens from His care and blessing) but now are they holy"?

Can the dead talk to the living?

The Scriptures unmistakably teach that the dead are unconscious in the tomb and will not be awakened until the resurrection morning. The Bible explains about fallen angels - demons - who left their former habitation in heaven, and went contrary to the Divine will, [...]
