Questions and Responses

Question: In the millennium, a child will die being 100 years old and will go...where? After the millennium, the New Jerusalem descends to earth. This is not for all believers but only the church. Can you sort this out?

Question: I was recently sent a book that rather shocked me. Its title is Have Heart: Bridging the Gulf Between Heaven and Earth. It seems to do what you objected to in Heaven Is For Real [in a previous TBC article]. What do you think?

Question: [composite of several]: You object to the idea that there was any death, even of animals, prior to Adam's sin. Death passed upon all men. Animals aren't mentioned and certainly don't sin. What would preclude animals from dying prior to the fall?

Question: I do not recall your ever having addressed the subject of cremation. Is it unbiblical?

Question: An SDA teacher has said that the word "everlasting" doesn't necessarily mean "forever." Is he correct?

Question: In Luke we read about the little girl who was “asleep,”…. If she was only asleep, as Jesus said, why did her spirit “return” to her? Yet, we cannot disbelieve Jesus when He said she was “asleep.”

Question: I’ve always believed [that believer's will appear at Christ's judgment seat after the Rapture] but now I’m wondering, why can’t the believer appear before the judgment seat of Christ after death rather than waiting for the Rapture?

Question: The Bible clearly says, “broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat” (Mt 7:13). How has God “won” if there are more souls in hell than in heaven?”

Question: Why would anyone who has died need to get their body back in the resurrection? We will be spiritual beings in heaven.

Question: Would you agree that [the nations in Rev. 20 who will come against the saints and Christ in Jerusalem] are the same raptured and martyred saints that will reign with Christ for 1,000 years?
