An "unknown tongue" is better translated as a "foreign language." Read the chapter with that in mind and you might realize that the turkey calling, mumbo jumbo or other unintelligible blathering that many call "speaking in tongues" is utter nonsense. God is not the author of confusion as verse 34 states.

It was an engagement to be married, but in those days, a betrothal event considered the man & woman to be fully committed to marriage, unlike today where an engagement can be 'called off'. A betrothal could take place a year or more before the actual marriage ceremony.

Except for exceptional circumstances, (such as: Matthew 1:18.19, where Joseph was entitled to call off the betrothal to Mary because of her presumably being unfaithful, he was then visited by the Angel of the Lord to confirm to him that Mary's pregnancy was from the Lord & not because of any fornication), a betrothal was binding & could not be annulled.

God bless you brother Robert

From Genesis 1:2 - ...darkness was over the surface of the deep... This verse does make it look like there was a created world which then was covered by something (perhaps ice or water) and then at a future time we read the quoted verse about "the surface of the deep".

The Lord in His mercy has not given to us information about the earth before Genesis. That does NOT mean there was nothing before then. It simply means it is not for us to know now. So to answer your question: Yes, there could have been floods before Noah's flood.

The best thing to do is to love the Lord Jesus with all your heart; then, one day you will see Him, and at that time you can ask Him whatever you want.

Peace and love in Christ

1 Peter 3:13-22 is a passage essentially on a believer's suffering at the hands of wicked men (suffering for righteousness' sake, receiving false accusations, suffering for doing well: vv 14,16,17). Likewise, Christ too suffered at the hands of wicked men, died for our sins & brought to life by God's Spirit (v18).

v19: by this self-same Spirit, Christ went & preached to the spirits in prison. The reason for Peter to bring up this matter is as a lead-in to the next verses on water baptism. So, as Jesus preached to the spirits bound from the days of Noah, & as Noah was saved on the Ark on water, so our baptism in water (as the saving water under the Ark) also now also saves us (not by washing away sins but of an answer of a good conscience towards God).

I realize that we generally connect Jesus' preaching to the spirits in prison as an event after his death & resurrection. But I also see the emphasis on the preaching to them at maybe some other point in time & not necessarily at the resurrection. I can't be certain though. Others may offer their opinion.

Where were these spirits? The Greek word indicates that it was a prison & those that are under guard - some see this as Hell, Hades, Sheol, but the Greek doesn't indicate that.

Who were these spirits? They were the spirits of all those who rejected God's warning about the coming flood & they continued on in their wicked living & even mocking Noah during the Ark's construction.

And what was the message? We're not told, but it could have been an announcement of the reason for their chained up plight & that eight souls were found righteous from among them, whom God had chosen to save. Or, if after the Resurrection, that those spirits & all other spirits bound there, received the announcement that Christ's death & resurrection has brought victory over sin & death. We're just not told any more, but as I said, I think this is just a side matter: the real issue in this portion of Scripture is about baptism.

God bless you Reverent in Christ

Those are a lot of questions. I recommend you read a freely available book called The Exposition of the Seven Church Ages. A quick internet search will get you the link. That book which is very well and clearly written talks about the first 3 chapters of Revelations, and answers your questions better than I could.

Peace and love in Jesus Christ

First you pray that something for her opens up so she can move out. If she doesn't have a job then she needs one. If she does have a job ask her to pay some renta little and you save that for her. Just pray for her and her 2 kids.

God bless you brother Ralph

That is a very good question. We are only saved when we are in direct contact with God. The direct contact is called the Holy Spirit. A man is only saved when he has the Holy Spirit. That is the assurance from God that we are his child, and He is our Father.

So Jesus Christ was telling Peter that after he received the Holy Spirit he is to strengthen the Church. (There could also be an allusion to how Peter was going to deny Jesus three times.)

Peace and love in Christ

Reading his word has alot of answers for us already. Resist the evil one and he must leave. You can call Daystar anytime for prayer you can even look leave a message. Sometimes he doesnt answer right away. But everything good is from God. If you feel good in your Spirit about it it should go the way which is right. And if not then try again. Waiting on the lord is important. We dont want to jump ahead of his leading. Ask the Holy Spirit to guide you into all truth. He we will.

God bless you brother Richard

Perhaps James 5:16 - ...confess your sins to one another...

Or 1 Peter 3:15 - ... and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you...

Or perhaps John 20:23 -...whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them...

It could be Romans 1:16 - ...I am not ashamed of the gospel...

Love in Christ

The fastest way to get a Answer from God is to fast. Give up something you like like a food or coffee for 10 0r 20 days.let your request be known to him and Thank him everyday for what hes done doing and going to do.

First of all, the Scripture says "anything without faith is sin!" And "a little leaven leavens the whole lump"! So how can we be "faith full" if we are still "sin full"?????? We were sinners, Jesus took away all our sin, we became 'born again'! What changed? We are supposed to be "NEW"! How can we be "NEW" if we are still old sinners?

The clearest Scripture is in Psalm 33:6-9. Other Scriptures: Hebrews 1:2, 11:3, may help.

That was so sad to read, yet a wonderful testimony of God's Spirit's Work in you at a time of such great grief & loss. You have cast yourself upon the Lord's Mercies & He has ministered His Word of comfort to you in return in wonderful ways.

Having lost both my parents at an earlier age, I too can relate how wonderfully the Lord undertook for me, "to give unto (me) beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that (I) might be called (a tree) of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified". Isaiah 61:3. And that's what it is: that He might be glorified in us in every way.

Whether in joy or grief, health or sickness, in the light or darkness, He is there - He is YHWH-Shammah (The Lord Who is Present - Ezekiel 48:35), the Lord Who never leaves or forsakes His children. Your rich memories, in your heart & in visible things around the house, will always be precious - maybe bringing in a tear or some times of great sadness, but still keeping his memory special & precious forever - till we meet again, indeed! Walk on in the joy & strength of the Lord, dear sister.

Leasing means lying.

'Leasing' is just an old fashioned word for 'lies or falsehood'.

"Bowels of compassion" in 1 John 3:17 is an older expression for a true, deep, empathy & giving of practical help to those who are needy. 'Bowels' was considered that deep part of one's being - today, we would refer to it as 'heart', (not the organ pumping blood), that is reached & touched with a deep sense of wanting to render every possible help to another. So if we say that God's Love is in us but we shut our hearts (bowels) to another's need, then our love for God is false & His Love is not in us. Very strong words, but also very true & challenging.
