    Should I use someone’s preferred pronouns if it is not their gender?

    Why was Joshua so pessimistic before he dies?

    The Israelites were optimistic about worshiping the Lord in Joshua 24: But Joshua was pessimistic: Why did Joshua put down the enthusiasm of the people? Why is Joshua so pessimistic before he dies? Moses' feeling was similar before he died, Deuteronomy 31: Joshua was personally with Moses...

    What was a leviathan or a behemoth?

    Job 40: Job 41: Some thought Leviathan and Behemoth were amphibious. Benson Commentary: Jamieson-Fausset-Brown: Barnes: Ancient writers often pair together crocodiles and hippopotamuses. Then perhaps Leviathan is a crocodile, and Behemoth is a hippopotamus. Job 40: Benson thought it could...

    Is baptism required before a person can receive communion?

    Feel free to open up another OP for that discussion. For this OP, I defined the term communion as a ceremony in the Christian Church during which people eat bread and drink wine in memory of the last meal that Christ had with his disciples.

    Did Jairus talk to Jesus before or after his daughter died?

    Jesus met Jairus in Mark 5: While they were on their way to the dying child, Jesus healed this woman. Then came the breaking news: Mark took several more verses to finish the story with a happy ending: Jesus raised her to life. Luke wrote about the same incident in Chapter 41: But then...

    Is baptism required before a person can receive communion?

    The Bible does not assert that but I think it assumes that. As soon as a person believes in Jesus' death on the cross for his sins, he should quickly get baptized. Belief and baptism go hand in hand together. What's he waiting for? Get baptized and participate at the Lord's table. Is baptism...

    Should a Christian fear death?

    I don't think we should. Is it normal to still fear death after being saved? It is normal but Paul wrote in Philippians 1: Paul didn't mind dying. Moreover, he desired to die. Paul was concerned about the people who needed him if he died. We live for Christ and we die for Christ. In any...
