    Do Animals' Souls Go to Heaven?

    Some people ask if the soul of their pet will go to Heaven. There is only one verse in the Bible that gives us a clue about the souls of animals: Ecclesiastes 3:21 "Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?"

    Occasional Drunkenness

    Let's stop for a minute and consider what the Bible (the written Word of God) says about it...quite a bit actually, and not at all complimentary. As long as you drink and are not 'inebriated', then you have full control of your faculties. 1 Timothy 5: 23 Stop drinking only water, and use a...

    When is Matt 28:19,20 going to be Preached ???

    Scriptural back-up for question posted and being discussed in Romans.... Romans 1:15 That is why I am so eager to preach the gospel also to you who are at Rome. 16I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then...

    Tell me more on this.....

    2 Timothy 3: 14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture...

    I thought heaven was peaceful?

    Samuel posted.."The book of Revelation things that HAVE BEEN, ARE, and ARE to COME. Now just where do we draw these lines" WAS,AND IS, AND IS TO COME is another name for the Eternal. Revelation 1:5 Grace and peace to you from him who is, and who was, and who is to come, and from the seven...

    I thought heaven was peaceful?

    Samuel, you posted: Old Testament, BC (before Christ), before Christ sacrifice on the Cross. Just how would you be forgiven, and your sins remembered no more, if satan was there all the time bringing them up ????. satan bringing up our sins does not negate God's forgiveness. He is the 'accuser...

    Paul's message was different ????

    Vince, " God commanded Christians to separate and become a distinct religion"....Here's what I know about the situation in the Jewish Community during the time of Christ ... First of all, Yahshua (Hebrew for Joshua - the word Jesus is the Greek form of the word "Joshua") spoke out against...

    Paul's message was different ????

    Vince, you posted..."Then, God commanded Christians to separate and become a distinct religion". Where does it say that? .....I agree; post a verse on that one, please. Regarding the Jewish/Gentile issue was a major concern to the early church. Acts 13:45When the Jews saw the crowds, they...

    Questions...

    Man can make Salvation difficult; God never did. Man puts rules and regulations (I'm talking Pharaseeical) which comes between the basic truth that JESUS died on the cross to save us from our sins and opened the way to develop a relationship based on truth with our Heavenly Father. It's...

    I thought heaven was peaceful?

    Samuel posted: "Jesus stands in heaven as our advocate, there is no place for satan there." In response, let me display this quote from the book of Job... Job 1 Job's First Test 6 One day the angels [a] came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came with them. 7 The LORD...

    I thought heaven was peaceful?

    I have to disagree with you on that. The book of Revelation is a prophetic book of events that have not occurred yet. John, the apostle, proclaimed that Christ would return as Victorious Lord and vindicate the righteous and judge the wicked. The book of Revelation is also a book of warning -...

    I thought heaven was peaceful?

    There are layers in heaven, I believe. Lucifer made war in the beginning and God threw him down to earth. There are heavenly wars, also I believe, and this affects the weather patterns. In the end times, we will see more natural disasters and with more strength. Matthew 24:7 Nation will rise...

    Where In The Bible Does It Say Gambling Is A Sin?

    Nobody really wins at gambling! Compulsive gambling can and does destroy lives just like drug addiction and alcoholism. It is just one more form of addiction (such as, pornography or shopping addictions, also not mentioned specifically in the bible). It is another sign of the moral decline...
