Questions and Responses

Question: Why do we celebrate Sunday as the Sabbath, when it was falsely changed from Saturday by Constantine?

Question: A “repentance” by Benny Hinn of having taught error in the past and a “renunciation” thereof has been published in Charisma magazine and elsewhere. What do you make of it?

Question: I wonder whether Jehoiachin might have repented to the Lord while he was in prison....I don't think that God would have given him this throne if he had not repented—would He?

Question: If the Rapture occurs before the...so-called "Tribulation period" of seven years, how did the multitude from every nation, etc., get into heaven in Rev. 7:9-17?

Question: I sent a copy of your recent TBC Update on Joel Osteen to a friend of mine on staff with Joel’s ministry asking if he had any thoughts in regard to the article.

Question: In the August TBC you lump D. James Kennedy and R.C. Sproul with denominations that have promoted a boycott against companies doing business with Israel. Dr. Kennedy has taken no part in such boycotts.

Question: I can't believe that you consider one's view of the events of the Last Days to be critical to one's salvation. Or do you?

Question: I appreciate your books. But sometimes you make no sense at all—like [when you stated] "Death is the punishment for sin, not cessation of being." You are contradicting Scripture!

Question: In Genesis 11:1-9 Nimrod builds the Tower of Babel in the land of Shinar. In Zechariah 5:5-11, the city needs to be rebuilt on its base. What keeps that city from being rebuilt now...?

Question: I recently saw the documentary, End of the Spear....Though it moved me in places...the film was a huge disappointment. Am I too harsh?
