I like telling my (mainly christian ) friends good jokes and observing them laugh. I don’t tell jokes that are obscene. Do good , clean jokes fall into the realm of jesting in Ephesians 5:4.

I have a dear friend who is an Orthodox Jew. My attempts to witness just bounce off those inch-thick scales on his stubborn eyes. He’s quite intellectual and a big reader, so I’d like to find a good, thought-provoking book on Jesus/the gospel to send him. Anything come to mind?

Who were the many holy people in Matthew 27:52?  Are these the Old testament saints, like David, Daniel, Moses, Abraham, Jacob, etc?  Are the rest of the Old testament characters in Heaven also?  Was Paradise taken out of Sheol and moved to Heaven at this event?

Can you tell me Barabbas first name? I want to make sure what I read was correct teaching!

Will there be commerce in the millennium? I am very blessed to have found your site, and I pray that you continue to be humbled and surrendered to the Fathers will.

In your recent Parable of the Unmerciful Servant post I was wondering what the jail symbolized in the parable? You mentioned that you believe the jailer is Satan.

I’d like to know for sure if the Saints/Saved/Redeemed Children of God are higher than angels and what are some scriptures (if any) that indicate that we are and have authority over Angels. Thank you!

Why is Sunday the first day of the week? Is it the same in the Old Testament?

People are accepting Jesus, both Jew & gentile without obedience to a law that was done away with. I have a hard time with the law being reestablished again, when it’s no longer needed for anything. Every time someone reads it a veil goes over their eyes.

Now I realize I don’t know it all but explain this to me.  Why would God do away with the Law and turn us to grace as the only way to be saved, without any type of performance, and then cast that aside and start over with law again and obedience to it and to Jesus?

God is Good, and we aren’t.  It is time we accept that and quit pretending that we can do something that is pleasing to God other than accepting His Son as the only acceptable sacrifice for our sins.

John 17: 3 gives the meaning of eternal life as defined by Jesus. “And this is eternal life, that they might know thee the only true God and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.”

In my study I looked up “know” and it means to know absolutely, completely, not limited, “life” means to live, breathe, rational immortal soul,  and “eternal” means perpetual, past present future..forever.

Do you believe we know God absolutely when we become His?
