  1. I heard that the Westboro Baptist Church may picket the funerals for the children killed in the tragedy in Connecticut, claiming that God wanted this to happen. What are your thoughts?
  2. My wife and I were married for many years and she divorced me and is living with another man. If she marries this man will they be one flesh?
  3. What do we know from the Word of God about what Heaven is like right now for those who have passed on before us? People really get confused and make statements about the dead walking the streets and eating fruits and talking with family and friends. A believer who has died is a spirit with out a body….
  4. I have enclosed an article where Bro. —– teaches that Jesus went to the fires of Hell for three days to pay for our sins because the Bible says that Christ’s soul was not left in Hell. He says that all the Old Testament saints went to Heaven as soon as they died because Hell can only refer to a place of torment. He says that in Luke 16 “Abraham’s bosom” is Heaven, and that when Christ said the thief on the cross would be with Him in Paradise that meant that the thief was going directly to Heaven, and that since Jesus is omnipresent He was going to be in suffering in Hell and in Heaven with the thief at the same time. What do you think about this?
  5. I have a couple questions about Eph. 4:4-16. In verse 4 when he says there is one “body”, what is he referring to? What does he mean when he says that Christ “lead captivity captive”? In verse 9, what does he mean when he says, ” he descended into the lower parts of the earth” ? Is that talking about being in the tomb? How does this tie into the gifts he has given us and the edifying of the saints?
