QUESTIONS COVERED:

1. What is the meaning of the tail referred to in Revelation 12:4? Tony, Canada

2. Can you please explain 1 Peter 3:19? I’ve tried to understand it by reading the surrounding verses and even into chapter 4, but I’m still confused about its meaning.  Heather, Canada

3.  What does the Bible mean when it says, “If someone does not work, neither shall he eat”? Should I help someone who is actively seeking work? And where is this verse found?  Vicky, FL   What does “he who doesn’t work shouldn’t eat” mean? 

4. Who are the four carpenters in Zechariah 1:20? Audra, GA

5.  In times of trouble, what does it really mean to focus on God—should I still pray about my problems or only thank Him?  Annabel, UK

6.  The Bible says our names were written in the Book before we were formed—does that mean everyone starts in the Book of Life until they choose to reject Christ? Susie, CO  Is everyone’s name in the Book of Life until they reject Christ? 

7.  Why did the Lord speak to Satan in Job 1:7-8? Zelia, South Africa

8.  I've been wondering how to study the Bible more deeply. I do read it frequently, but I’ve heard that memorization is important. However, I find it difficult to remember verses perfectly for a long time. Do we need to memorize the Bible? If so, what are some easy methods to do it effectively?

9.  Was the Ark of the Covenant, with the tablets inside, present in the rebuilt temple after the 70-year captivity? If not, how were burnt offerings conducted without it, especially during Jesus’ time on earth?  Was the Ark of the Covenant present in the second temple, and if not, how were burnt offerings conducted without it? Tom, TX

10.  Can you please explain 1 Kings 22:17-23? Did God use a fallen angel in this passage? Is God condoning a sin He would never commit, something abominable to Him? I’m struggling to understand His character in this story.  Britani, VA

11.  I’m planning a time of prayer and fasting and usually end my fast at 12 PM, though I’d like to extend it to 3 PM. I recently heard that fasting until noon isn’t really considered fasting—just prayer. What are your thoughts?  Viewer from CA   Does the Bible say how long a fast must be to count as a true fast? 

12.  I pay tithes and offerings, and so does my daughter—we live together. I know I should tithe on my earnings and increase. If she gives me money for bills or groceries, should I pay tithes on what she gives me, or only on what I have left after expenses?  Viewer from LA   Should tithes be paid on money received from others, or only on one’s own income?
