The verse is true and I am also correct. Let me explain myself: who does the Bible say is 'asleep in Christ'? There are verses in God's Word that speak of the resurrection of the saints to eternal life.

This brings something to mind. I live among the Jews, who do not shave or cut their hair for a few weeks after Passover. Earlier this year I overheard one telling another, "Avichai, I am so scared! I forgot it was forbidden to shave and accidentally removed a few hairs from my beard. I hope God...

My understanding is that Ezekiel's Temple is the temple the 2nd Temple should have been, and the temple that the 3rd Temple will be. It is the perfect model for a Temple of God. The temple belongs in Jerusalem, or New Jerusalem. If the temple was symbolic and not a physical temple then...

What makes you think that the soul is judged **before** the judgement?

The Bible says that the just will come back to life during the first resurrection when Christ returns. If they are alive in Heaven they can't come back to life from death because they are already alive. I don't understand you

The Bible plainly says that the dead will be brought back to life to be judged. Read the book of revelation.

I don't think there's anyone in Hell yet because the resurrection for judgement hasn't happened yet. They are in the ground waiting for it. If everyone who died is already in heaven or hell then who will be resurrected to be judged? The graves would be empty of souls. And speaking of judgement...

You keep playing logic games with us. Even if for some reason you believed that Satan is good, it was God's Word the Holy Bible that told you about satan in the first place, meaning that God also exists. And if he exists then the Bible testifies to His Goodness. Who does the devil want to nail...

You're playing mind games with us and fooling yourself with complex logical operations. The truth is simple but you would never accept a simple solution. You go the long way because you're so sober and wise! The more you search the farther you move from God, because His Words are near the heart...

Nobody wants to be miserable just for the sake of being miserable. It is against human nature to desire suffering without any gain. Whenever I am in pain I think of how this is only the smallest fraction of what I truly deserve for my deeds. This helps me appreciate what God has done for us, so...

Yes, I was reading about them yesterday. Some used it to humble themselves, using it as a reminder of their sinfulness so they won't become proud. Others preached that their self inflicted suffering cleansed them of sin, which is obviously a dangerous teaching, our sins are forgiven through the...

During black death there was a group of believers who practiced self harm in hopes that God will have mercy on them and save them from the disease because of their actions. What do you think about them?

Hello, The strangers among the Hebrews were gentiles who lived with them.

You're all right, but that's not my question. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough so I'll ask again: How is it possible that the Hebrews have returned from exile even though they had not obeyed the book of instruction? What is this book of instruction anyways, is it not the laws of Moses? Did Jesus...

"Now what I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach." Original: כִּי הַמִּצְוָה הַזֹּאת, אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי מְצַוְּךָ הַיּוֹם--לֹא-נִפְלֵאת הִוא מִמְּךָ, וְלֹא רְחֹקָה הִוא Literal translation (my own understanding): For this commandment which I command you...

It's in Hebrew, but you won't find much interesting stuff if you look him up. He is a Jew, but I found this song relevant to Christianity. His name is Haim Israel. Haim means "Life" and it's a real name, not a stage name.

Sorry that it's not in English, but recently I've been listening to this one alot. It's about the famous Psalms 23 and I like it very much.

Welcome new ones, I am also relatively new here. I am 20 years old from Israel, nice to meet you, good to see so many young Christians. We are the next generation (y)(y)

God knows what we will do in any situation that we are put in and how it will affect everyone and everything around us. Nobody can ask him why things are the way they are, but we can be sure that it is the best we can get with the choices we've made, and that is not necessarily the best for...

I have two dogs that I did not name myself. The first one is a tiny black dog called Rain (גשם), she was an abandoned 9 months old dog that a charity organization picked up. She received that name at the organization, and for lack of creativity I kept it. Five years later I adopted my second dog...
