No, it does not. Rather, Luke testifies to the voluntary, loving, and selfless disposition of Christians in Jerusalem: ““Now the full number of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one said that any of the things that belonged to him was his own, but they had everything in common...
The short answer to your question is this: psychics have no power, either to predict future events or to cause what they predict to come to pass. You are wise to avoid them. To flesh out the answer further, I’d like to point your attention to Isaiah 40-48. In this entire section, the Lord sets Hi...
No, it wouldn’t. Note the following factors: 1. The term “unknown” is not in the original text. It was added by the King James translators. It is unwarranted and unnecessary. 2. The nature of the “tongues,” alluded to in this chapter, must be the same as those defined earlier in the New Testament...
Let me approach this from two different vantage points. First, suicide by a responsible person is clearly a sinful act. The Scriptures teach that life is a sacred gift from God (Acts 17:25), and no person has the arbitrary right to destroy it—not even their own. Judas, one of the Lord’s apostles,...
First, I would dispute the chronological theory that suggests the Universe is billions of years old.

It derives from four Hebrew consonants, called the Tetragrammaton, a term that signifies a four-letter word. This expressi...
I believe the brother is mistaken in his view. Several things should be noted. First, it should be understood that Matthew's record is a very abbreviated account of John's ongoing ministry. Vast multitudes were pursuing John as he preached in "the wilderness of Judaea" (3:1, 5). The verb "went ou...
The King James Version is an old and respected translation of the Holy Scriptures. We have a very high regard for this popular version. Its translators attempted to reproduce the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek original text into the English tongue in a faithful way. In evaluating any version, however...
The religious world is deeply divided over the following passage from Genesis. “And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters were born unto them, that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all that the...
