    Do you believe you're the chosen generation now?

    This is something I've been looking into for a few years now and I was highly skeptical of it because such a thing seems so unlikely. However after looking into it long enough I feel very satisfied with what I now know to say with confidence we are the generation Jesus said would not pass until...

    Will Israel fall again?

    Naftali Bennett mentioned that Israel has never exceeded 80 years before falling. My question is does the bible say if Israel will fall after becoming a nation again in the last days? Or when Israel became a nation in 1948 they would remain a nation forever?

    What's wrong with mid trib?

    It seems people are either pre or post trib. The mark comes mid trib and the antichrist is revealed mid trib. The first 3.5 years are pretty peaceful so why couldn't God wait till mid trib before the rapture? It seems the first 3.5 years is God's final chance for people to avoid the wrath of...

    Which chapters in the bible are the most sobering?

    Roman's 9 explains how we have no right to complain how god made us because he has the right to make us however he saw fit Corinthians 15 when he talks about how then the end comes and god will be all in all that's the day I've been waiting for. Corinthians 3 talks about how our works will be...

    Don't the jews know when the messiah comes?

    According to classical Jewish sources, the Hebrew year 6000 (from sunset of 29 September 2239[2] until nightfall of 16 September 2240[3] on the Gregorian calendar) marks the latest time for the initiation of the Messianic Age. The Talmud,[4] Midrash,[5] and the Kabbalistic work, the Zohar,[6]...

    Did God make us based on who we are or something else?

    There seems to be two possibilities when it comes to how we were made. Either he made us based on who we are or he made us based on something else. I want to say he made us based on who we are but I'm not sure. If it's based on who we are then we can't blame God if there's some part of ourselves...

    Why do some feel a tug towards God and others nothing?

    This is true whether they are in a Christian family where both parents are religious and then you have the even more bizarre yet wonderful situation where both parents are staunch atheists and the child knows their parents would be upset if they end up believing in God yet the pull towards God...

    Do you think death is random?

    In the early parts of my life I kind of assumed it was just bad luck if someone died but the more I lived the more I realized we don't control when we go. I now realize that God actually controls when we go and I personally believe he planned out every little detail of our lives. What do you...

    What if God gave you a life of suffering so he could bless you eternally?

    Some might say well couldn't he have just given you the blessing without the suffering? The answer is yes but if he blesses you eternally after you have suffered for a lifetime then that blessing means so much more than if you have always had it good. I see this in my life because God could...

    Do you believe the dead are conscious?

    I'm curious what everyone believes about the dead and if they are conscious or if you believe they are sleep until the resurrection? I read a book called are the dead alive now? Which says the dead are sleep until Jesus returns. So I just accepted that but recently I've had experiences that...

    Why not having free will is better

    I always thought we had free will and couldn't fathom not having free will. I believed if I didn't have free will then I'm a slave with no power. I however have changed my view on this and welcome not having free will. I view not having free will as being a spectator who has no responsibilities...

    If we are living in a simulation does this mean God does not exist?

    Whether or not we live in a simulation is still up for debate but it would be very interesting if we did but what I want to know is what are the implications this would have on whether or not God exists?

    Isn't the number of people who could be saved infinite?

    Surely there is no end to the number of people who can be saved right? The bible talks about God waiting until all who will be saved are saved but this seems to indicate a time period that may not exist.

    What do you think the next life will be like?

    What things do you imagine will carry over to the next life from this? What duties and responsibilities do you imagine we will have? What powers do you imagine we will have?

    God permits evil because we need to know

    I was thinking about God and the question of why does God permit evil since no one would permit evil if they had the power to stop it. But I think that the answer isn't as simple as having the power to stop evil and then just stopping it. What if there is value in evil? What if we have to know...

    Why I think evil is necessary

    I think we need evil so we can experience the greater good. Without evil what need is there in going out of your way to do more than good? But with evil you become awoken and do the good necessary to stop the evil and that goes on forever. So if there was no evil there would still be good but...

    What do you think about speaking in tongues?

    Since I was young I've seen a few family members do it and was always interested and hopeful I could do it. Then in my mid twenties I was able to do it at will and it's such a spiritual blessing. Sometimes I feel almost too blessed but God always reassures me that I have it because I need it and...

    What's the point of animal suffering?

    At least human suffering is rewarded in the bible but what about animal suffering? It seems they suffer like us and for nothing. I say this as my pet rabbit is on his way to the vet and looks to have seen his last days and it just makes me so sad to see him taking his last breaths. He was so...
