What is meant by the "Judgment Day" and when will it be? Is it to be a 24 hour day?
The term "Judgment" includes a hearing or trial and the final conclusion or result of that trial. Not all are judged at once. To illustrate, the Church is now on trial or judgment. The Christian trial or judgment has been in progress since Pentecost. The faithful in this judgment shall be rewarded, as we read, "Be thou faithful unto death and I will [...]
What is meant by the term “Doomsday?”
It is that last dreadful day in the which (according to the antiquated theories of an obsolete theological formation) the Lord will return to the earth, and take His seat upon a great white throne, and then all nations will be gathered before Him, for judgment.

Joseph is here styled "the son of Heli," that is, the son of Eli, Mary's father, by marriage, or legally; or as we [...]
Is there any positive proof that our Lord Jesus was born on Christmas Day, December 25th, and if so, where can it be found?
There is nothing to prove that Christ was born December 25th, but there is circumstantial evidence he was born around early October. It is generally recognized that Jesus was crucified on Friday, April 3, AD 33. The fact that his crucifixion occurred at the close of the 14th day of the Hebrew month Nisan, and that [...]
Will Jerusalem ever be rebuilt and for what purpose?
The most remarkable movement ever occurring amongst the Jewish people since the time of the destruction of their capital city, Jerusalem, is now in process of development, and is known as "The Zionist Movement."
