Do our pets go to Heaven?

Q: When animals die do they go to Heaven? Megan

A: Not sure about yours, but mine certainly do because I shield them with my faith in the Promises of God, such as Jn. 14:12-14. That applies to all my patients too!

Apostate Methodists

Q: We attend the United Methodist Church; I want to be a submissive wife, but I'm struggling with my temper: Got any suggestions? Cynthia

A: You're running with an apostate dead-end group. Forty per cent of UMC pastors deny several basic tenets of Christian faith such as the deity of Christ, His virgin Birth etc: Get out and find a Spirit-filled fellowship. The Baptism in the Holy Spirit will take care of that bad temper. And this will correct cockeyed Submission Teaching.

Truth or tradition?

Q: Can a Catholic be a Christian?

A: Yes, if they are willing to repent of their sin & idolatry, and come out of Catholicism. 2. Co. 6:17. The Lord is using this site to pull many beautiful Catholics out of the swamp of religion, into the Truth.

Victorian lighthouse heroine

Q: Who was the Christian heroine Grace Darling?

A: I doubt she was a Christian, but she definitely had guts. Christian women can learn a lot from Grace Darling's example.

Condemned and doomed

Q: Where in the Bible is the verse, 'There but by the grace of God go I'?

A: 'There but for the grace of God, go I', is not a Bible verse, it was spoken by John Bradford, my fellow Lancastrian. He was burned alive by Catholics for proclaiming the Grace of God enunciated in Eph. 2:8, and throughout the New Covenant.

Allegory or history?

Q: Is the story of the Flood and Noah's Ark literally true, or an allegory?

A: Perfectly true just as written. What a debt we owe to our ancestor Noah. The world called him 'crazy' for believing God's Word. And they will do the same to you too.

Here's more on Noah's Ark, and the many claims that it has been found on Mt. Ararat.

Unforgivable sin

Q: Are there any sins that God won't forgive?

A: Yes, this one: Mtt. 12:31-32.

Understand first

Q: What is the sinner's prayer for?

A: Please read Before you pray the sinner's prayer.

Father's will for you

Q: How can I know God's will, for example my choice of vocation or business to be involved in?

A: First, His Word, be about Father's business. Mtt. 9:37-38, Lk. 2:49. There's no need to wait for 'a call' when He's already given the command to all believers. Mtt. 28:19-20, Mk. 16:15-20. Second, for the fine details simply get Spirit-filled, and listen to His Spirit in your heart, then obey Him. How to know God's Will

Jesus in Hell

Q: Did Jesus go to Hell?

A: Yes! David said so, Peter said so, and God the Holy Spirit says so. He had to, in order to redeem you and me. KJV: Ps. 16:10, Ac. 2:27, 1 Pe. 3:18-19 Worship the LORD!

Above all names

What is the Name of the Lord?

A: The LORD Jesus Christ, Almighty God in the Flesh. YHWH or Yay-Ho-Va in Hebrew, rendered 'LORD' or Jehovah in English. It means 'I AM' or 'I AM WHO I AM'. Ex. 3:14. C'mon you saints... Praise Him!

Far superior Covenant

Q: What happened to people who died, before Jesus came and made the New Covenant in His Blood? Peter

A: Those under Law who believed the Word of God had righteousness credited to them. Ro. Chs. 3 and 4, but only after the New Covenant was sealed could believers be made righteous, justified, born again! A wonderful topic, too big for a quick reply.

In-grafted branches

Q: What was the importance and purpose of Jacob giving his birthright to Joseph's children in 1 Ch. 5:1-2? James

A: Wouldn't we love the Jews to see it? Israel's firstborn son, Rueben, lost his birthrights through sin. It foreshadows the fact that the Jews (Jacob's name is Israel) would reject their Messiah, and their 'birthrights', and so the Gospel was opened to Gentiles: Whoever believes! Ro. Ch.11 Alleluia! Here's a beautiful thought: What did Joseph's coat of many colours signify?

False-teachers on radio

Q: I heard a guy on the radio say Jesus is coming back in 2011, is he right?

A: No, I know who you mean, and he also claimed Christ would return in 1994. The bloke's gone-off, and spreads much false-teaching, he's not even Spirit-filled: Ignore him.

Tick, tock...

Q: When is Jesus' Second Coming?

A: He told us Himself three times: Soon. Rev. 22:7,12,20. These are the Last Days, Ac. 2:17, 1 Jn. 2:18, 2 Pe. 3:3, but only Father knows the precise day and hour. Mtt. 24:36. That's good enough for me; be busy, and alert, time's short.

Defender of faiths

Q: Is Prince Charles The AntiChrist?

A: Profoundly antiChristian, (like Blair and Bush et al.), but not The AntiChrist. See King Charles III & The Windsor Curse.

Alcohol

Q: Is drinking alcohol okay? Amanda

A: Gargle this reply to a recent E-pistle question on Drinking alcohol.

Unequally yoked

Q: I just got saved, should I marry my Roman Catholic girlfriend? Michael

A: Definitely not until two vital conditions are met: 1) She repents of idolatry, and gets genuinely saved. 2) The Lord tells you both to marry. 2 Co. 6:14-18, 1 Co. 7:32-35, Eph. 5:3-7.

Satan's 'Bible'

Q: Is the Quran true?

A: No, the Koran is demonic deception from start to finish. Listen to a former Muslim scholar, who could recite the Koran by heart, tell you the truth.

Pierced and tattooed

Q: I want to become a born again Christian, but I have tattoos and a piercing, will the Lord forgive me? Tina

A: If you are willing to repent and follow Him as LORD of your life, yes. Let us know when you're ready.

Martial arts

Q: Is it okay for a Christian to learn Tai Chi or Kung Fu? Randle

A: No, both are based on occult spiritism, and forbidden by God. Lev. Chs. 19 and 20. Satan will tell you it's just a hobby or a sport: Remind him he's the father of lies. Jn. 8:44.

Chalk and Cheese

Q: What's the difference between Islam and Christianity?

A: Islam is a man-made idolatrous religion: Christianity is the Revelation of God's Redemptive Truth. Muslims bow down to a stone five times a day: Christians worship the Living God - The Lord Jesus Christ. See Good News for Muslims.

Blue Angels

Q: Does the Bible say anything about angels being jealous of us? Cathy

A: I assume you're thinking of 1 Pe. 1:12 where God's angels 'long to look into' salvation. They never sinned, so don't need saving. Satan and his fallen angels (demons) are surely jealous of us because they are eternally doomed (2 Pe. 2:4), whereas we're eternally blessed (Eph. 1:3). Altogether now... "Poooooor devil!"

Crazy haircuts

Q: Re: Lev. 19:27. Does this mean we cannot shave, or trim our hair?

A: Ahh the 'Bearded Christian lady' question! No, see the KJV. It refers to the pagan practise of 'rounding the hair on your head'. Forbidden by God, and practised by Pagans and Catholic monks down the ages. (Picture 'Friar Tuck' in Robin Hood, and you'll get the idea.) It's also common amongst Animists, and Buddhists (both nuns and monks). Read Foxes Book of Martyrs where it is often denounced.

Listen to The Word

Q: Re: Lk. 10:38-42. What did Jesus mean when He said Mary had chosen the right thing?

A: God is telling all of us that sitting at the feet of the LORD Jesus Christ, and listening to the Living Word of God, is infinitely better than being distracted and worried by the mundane things of this world. Thank you for one of the best questions we've had.

Raising children

Q: How should Christians discipline their children?

A: I refer you to an Expert on child discipline.

Is Halloween Christian?

Q: Isn't Halloween a traditional Christian festival?

Blimey no! It has always been a satanic invention. Roman Catholics embraced it, and called it 'All Hallows Eve' to lure the gullible into their occult clutches. Read Halloween's Satanic Roots Exposed (If you dare.)

God's Mercy

Q: Can God forgive me?

A: Certainly, but only one way: Forgiveness of Sins.

Born of Water

Q: What does born of water mean?

A: I wrote this to counter a Korean cult I came across: What does it mean to be born of water? It has set a lot of people free from false-teaching.
