Question—Where was the voice of
God first heard by human beings?
Answer—By Adam and Eve in
the Garden of Eden. Genesis 3:8:
"And they heard the voice of the
Lord God walking in the garden in
the cool of the day: . .
Q.—Is it not best to let children
grow up as they are and give them
religion after they are adults?
A.—The Bible says: "Train up a '
child in the way he should go: and
when he is old, he will not depart
from it." Proverbs 22:6.
1 Q.—Does the Bible say that a
man’s ghost comes back and lives
In his home after he is dead?
A.—When a man dies, he does not
return to his house to live. Accord
ing to Job 7:10, “he shall return no
snore to his house, neither shall his
place know him any more.”
Q.—Do the Seven Churches in
Revelation 1:11 represent seven de
nominations such as Presbyterian,
Episcopal, etc.?
A.—It is quite clear that they rep
resent seven consecutive periods of
church history from the days of the
apostles to the coming of our Lord.
The book of Revelation is dedi
cated to these seven cnurcnes t±tev
elation 1:4), and its prophecies
reach to the end of time. Also, the
names of these churches are signif
icant and are considered by many
to picture conditions existing in
each period—for instance: Ephesus
(desirable), Smyrna (sweet-smell
ing), Pergamos (elevation), Thya
tira (contrition), Sardis (that
which remains), Philadelphia (bro
therly love), Laodicea (judging the
people).
Q.—To a Christian, is not death
the coming of Christ?
A.—We read in John 21:21-23:
“Peter seeing him saith to Jesus,
Lord, and what shall this man do?
Jesus saith unto him, If I will that
he tarry till 1 come, what is that to
thee? follow thou Me. Then went
this saying abroad among the
brethren; that that disciple should
not die: yet Jesus said not unto
him, He shall not die; but, It 1 will
that he tarry till I come, what is
'that to thee?”
It is evident from this passage
that the disciples regarded death
and the coming of Christ as two
separate events. His coming is not
death, for He comes to raise the
dead. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18.
