    The New Testament authors favor the prophets. Why?

    Probably because the Prophets were sent by God to speak prophecy He personally dictated to them.

    Why did Pilate scourge Jesus?

    To fulfill prophecy. Isaiah 53:5 states, "...by His stripes we are healed..."

    Why not Everyone will be Saved

    The "Rain Theology" is a false doctrine that originated within the Pentecostal church, primarily based on numerous scriptures taken out of context. Without going into a sermon, there are two main points that debunk this doctrine: 1) Nowhere in scripture is the Holy Spirit ever associated with...

    Did God forsake Jesus on the cross?

    As MatthewG said, Jesus was separated from God for a brief time. Why? Because just before He died, Christ took on all sin and thus became sin so He could conquer sin with His death. As sin cannot exist in God's holy presence, Christ had to be separated from God until the sacrifice was complete...

    Did all the different races and ethnicities come from Adam and Eve?

    Not only genetic variation, but adaptation (as opposed to evolution). Post-Babel, mankind developed distinctive characteristics that allowed them to best adapt and survive in the climate where they settled.

    David was ANGRY because the LORD had broken out against Uzzah

    God's universe, God's rules. Deal with it.

    David was ANGRY because the LORD had broken out against Uzzah

    David can get mad all he wants, but when God says, "NO TOUCHIE" He means exactly that, no ifs, ands or buts. This is a prime example of the folly of placing good intentions over following God's commands to the letter. Yes, Uzzah meant well and thought he was doing right in preventing the Ark...

    What is the Great Tribulation?

    The Great Tribulation is the last 3 1/2 years of the Tribulation. The AC survives a fatal wound and establishes his worldwide kingdom while the False Prophet builds the statue of the Beast and commands all to worship it. This period ends with Christ returning and obliterating the AC and his army...

    Do not eat with what kinds of people?

    Cannibals. Definitely cannibals. But yeah, eating with believers who live in sin is de facto condoning their lifestyle.

    Did Goliath suffer from health problems?

    Yeah. He had a terminal case of dead. Very sad.

    Did God resurrect Moses and Elijah already?

    Well... for one thing Elijah never died. God caught him up to heaven in a chariot. Thus no need for resurrection.

    Who was the high priest when David ate the holy bread?

    1 Sam 21:1 identifies Abimelech only as a priest, not as High Priest.

    Why did David take Goliath's head to Jerusalem?

    Because he knew King Saul would say, "Proof, or it didn't happen," and phone cameras and Instagram hadn't been invented yet.

    What was Lot thinking when he offered his virgin daughters to the Sodomites?

    At the time it was considered a most grievous dishonor to allow harm to come to guests under one's roof; and they were sent by God to boot. Pretty sure he thought he was committing the lesser of two evils.

    Why doesn't God reveal himself unequivocally to the entire world?

    Not to mention that in Revelation, God will pour out His wrath upon the Earth and the unbelievers will still refuse to glorify God.

    "Whoever is not with me is against me" vs "Whoever is not against you is for you"

    In in stating that "whoever is not with Me is against Me", Jesus is declaring that there is no middle ground; that no one can merely sit on the fence or claim neutrality. Essentially, we exist in a default state of being against Him unless and until we declare that we are for Him. I don't think...

    The Book of Jubilees

    Jubilees? What other jubilees are there besides cherry?

    The Wages of Sin is Death, even the second Death

    I'll just leave this here... Romans 10:9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

    KJV Only?

    And Who, do you imagine, prompted the Romans to have the books of the NT authored? (Hint: rhymes with Holy Spirit). There is nothing that is not under God's control.
