_Questions:
Q - Can Jesus save someone who is a murderer?
A - The scripture is clear, in Hebrews 7:25. It says that He can save ANYONE. The common text in John 3:16 repeats it. The truth is that there is NO SIN that God can't forgive and there is NO SINNER that God can't justify. If you come to Christ, He WILL clean you.
Q - What does the cross mean to me?
A - The Cross of Calvary means many things, in its totality; however, the main thing it means is that I am forgiven, I am saved, and I am in right standing with God the Father. Because of what Jesus did on the Cross, and my acceptance of it, thru faith, I am clean!
Q - I grew up hearing that "as in the days of Noah," it will be like that before Jesus comes back. Is that true?
A - Yes. I say yes because Matthew 24:38,39 tells us the end will be like it was in Noah's day. There will be disregard for eternity and only carnality among the people. People will only be concerned with flesh, but will be openly disregarding righteousness. Can't we see that happening now?
Q - You have talked a lot about cults, online. What is a definition of a cult?
A - I have done some research, yes, on Christian cults. I posted one of my studies online. Here is the link...
Q - My church teaches that the angel Michael, is the same as Jesus. Why does the Bible use both names for Him?

Q - I've been taught that certain foods aren't "clean" animals. Which foods are clean/unclean?
A - This is a lengthy response, but it NEEDS to be understood. I will refer you to one of my colleagues who has spent an entire page helping people understand the answer. What I do want to say, before I give the link for his page, is that the clean/unclean foods in Leviticus 11 had NOTHING TO DO with health laws. As a matter of fact, unless you are a practicing Jew, it has NOTHING to do with you. There are some religious organizations that teach that Leviticus 11 is a list of foods that God says are unhealthy. There are even some religions that make this topic paramount to salvation. Friends, it was NOT for you. I'll let him explain....
