Should Christians worship on the Sabbath (Saturday) or on Sunday? Why? Do we set aside or celebrate other Holy Days?
We are to praise the Lord every day. Hebrews 4:1-3 tells us we have entered into our Lord's rest, i.e. Sabbath. The lesson of the Sabbath is more than setting aside one specific day of the week to worship God. It is a daily worship. We can be at peace, resting by trusting and loving God. Luke 9:23: (NIV) “Whoever [...]
Are we to accept the Bible account of the miracles that were performed in olden times? Why are not miracles performed in our day?
This is an age of miracles, with messages being flashed thousands of miles through space, and under the seas, and around the globe. Marvelous discoveries and wonderful inventions are being made almost daily. Some of the achievements of our times almost eclipse those of former days, even the miracles of which we read in the [...]
Please explain John 14:12: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father."
Whatever may be the meaning of the Master's words, it is obvious that not any of His followers have ever been able to do "greater works" than he accomplished as regards the miraculous works of opening the blind eyes, unstopping the deaf ears, raising the dead, etc. The "works," therefore, must be of a different [...]

The `verses connecting, particularly the 25`the, show that it is during the Age in which divine favor and blessings are to be disseminated over the world, and when the terms of salvation are much more favorable to humanity than now, that an incorrigible sinner dying at an hundred years of age will be but as [...]
According to Revelation 20:6 and 1 Thessalonians 4:16, will the Millennium be before or after the coming of Christ?
The Scriptures above referred to, together with many others, show that Christ will reign during the Millennium, and we all know Christ has not reigned yet. If Christ was reigning now, we would not have the great systems of evil in the earth, for the Scriptures declare that when "His judgments are in the earth then the people [...]
What is man? Is he half spiritual and half fleshly, or is he entirely a human or earthly being?
There is not a single expression to be found in the Scriptures in which it is stated that man was created in any sense a spirit being. On the contrary, the Bible distinctly asserts that man is of "the earth earthy." His body was formed of the dust of the ground and when the body received the [...]
