Question of the week:
From the day God created a man and a woman and put them in the Garden of Eden, he meant for them to find rest in His creation. Can you find that principle in the Old and New Testament
applied when people disobeyed or obeyed it? What was the result in every instance?
Question of the week:
We all know that the Bible clearly states that we are Ambassadors of Jesus Christ, that is, we are representative of the Heavenly Kingdom on this earth. As such, we do not have authority beyond what has been bestowed upon us to represent the King of Heaven. Why is this kingdom principle of uttermost importance to make a wife/husband relationship fulfilled and blessed? You may want to study John 5:18-23 to find the kingdom principle at work.
Question of the week:
Jesus revealed in Matthew 5:38-42 how the divine alternative impacts our responses to unjust treatment. How does His teaching apply to everyday situations in your life, and how would unbelievers perceive Christianity if you lived by this divine alternative?
Question of the week:
The writer of Hebrews communicates that those who were not the people of God in the Old Covenant have become the people of God through the New Covenant (Hebrews 8:7-13).
This has been prophesied in the Old Testament. Which prophets did so? and where is this also taught in the New Testament?
Question of the week:
Hebrews 4:12 states that ”THE WORD OF GOD IS LIVING AND ACTIVE, SHARPER THAN ANY TWO-EDGED SWORD, PIERCING TO THE DIVISION OF SOUL AND OF SPIRIT, OF JOINTS AND OF MARROW AND DISCERNING THE THOUGHTS AND INTENTIONS OF THE HEART.” What does this verse SAY TO YOU PERSONALLY, and what other Scripture verses can you find that will help you see the importance of feeding on the Word of God daily?
Question of the week:
Peter is telling us that we have been “ransomed” with the “precious blood of Christ”. Why is the blood of Jesus “precious”? Explain it in your own words.

1 Corinthians 15:1-7 John 11:17-27 1 Corinthians 15:12-22; 2 Corinthians 5:14-20 1. His followers WITNESSED HIS MIRACLES 2. His followers EMBRACED HIS TEACHINGS Matthew 13:1-23 3. His followers WATCHED HIS CRUCIFIXION…
Question of the week:
In the Parable of the “Wicked Tenants” the Jewish leaders did understand what Jesus said, but responded: “Surely not!” Jesus than quotes Psalm 118:22-24 but extends the metaphor beyond the failing to appreciate something of such great value!
What does it mean?
Question of the week:
In His early days of ministry, Jesus primarily ministers to the Jewish people. His focus changed in Mark 5:1 when He intentionally entered the country of the Gerasenes which is Gentile territory. This is in the geographical region of Bashan. The demons in Mark 1:24 asked Jesus a question. The demons in Mark 5:7 do the same. However, there is a great difference;
WHAT is different and WHY is this so important?
