    Where is the Ark of the Covenant today?

    Where is the Ark of the Covenant today? I would think it's where God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit dwells. So the bride of Christ, the Church, being sealed with the Spirit of God, is indwelt by God, so the Ark of the Covenant is in the true Church. I'm not sure on this but it makes sense...

    Define the "heart of man"

    What do you think the definition of the heart of man is? Aside from the fact that it is utterly sinful, exactly what is it?

    Lamentations chapter 3 - help understanding

    In Lamentations 3, the writer goes thru times where God shuts out his prayer, but then toward the end of the chapter God hears the prayer, and I can't understand what he is doing any differently. Maybe you have some insight. Verse 8 Even when I cry out and call for help, He shuts out my...

    Crucifying my flesh - would like your prayers

    For 17 years I've been a sexually immoral person. Looking at inappropriate magazines for that long has turned me into an addict. I don't know when I became a Christian, but I dragged my baggage into my relationship with Christ so He could heal me. He meets us as we are, and that's what...

    Trust issues - trusting in God

    I've been getting good Christian counseling for a while now. We've finally nailed the problem down to trust. I'm afraid to trust God. I've been abused physically, spiritually, and emotionally in the past, and now it's hard to trust. I get defensive - I put walls up so I don't get hurt again...

    Luke 6:37 ...Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned...

    I need sincere brotherly help with this. Only encouragers please. Back in high school I played chess with a guy named Dale. Dale often blurted out the Lord's name in vain. I went to a strict church where the doctrine was not always right, now that I look back. The Sunday School teacher told...

    What prophesy are we looking for next?

    I don't think it's wise for me, at this point when my heart isn't convinced either way, to choose whether I believe in the rapture or not. It doesn't matter to me. I need Christ's protection every day, and He will be with me until the end regardless. What I am interested in knowing is "what...

    Jesus said to them, "Who do YOU say that I am?"

    In Matthew 16:13-17 it's written Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, He was asking His disciples, "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?" And they said, "Some say John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but still others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets." He said to...

    The angel who proclaims the Gospel

    In Revelations 14:6-7, one of the angels of God proclaims the Gospel in the latter end times: Then I saw another angel flying directly overhead, with an eternal gospel to proclaim to those who dwell on the earth, to every nation and tribe and language and people. And he said with a loud voice...

    Problems in my faith-relationship with Christ

    I am really having a rough time. When I pray to Jesus, the way I understand the Gospel is that he associated himself with the lost and sick, lame and mute and deaf, the sinful outcasts of society. So I go to him in prayer, but I'm not making the connection. I feel as though I'm trying to...

    For what I am doing, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do...

    God promises to listen to His children: cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7 God promises to forgive His children: If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9 God loves His...

    Research on definition of marriage

    I'm doing a research project on the definition of marriage, the way God sees it. Basically I'm collecting historical facts, Scripture, society's trends, and finally discussion on this topic by you. The two basic viewpoints I'm doing research on are these: 1. Marriage is established by a male...

    What can I do to be happy again?

    I have a mental disorder. It hurts me. I suffer from this everyday for 13 years. I have a friend who said she believes I will be healed, that I have been healed, it's a faith journey. I can't put up with it any longer. It brings such confusion. Don't say it's the devil who makes confusion...
