Questions

Is vs.9-20 of Mark 16 the word of God or not? Wayne Grudem says if we are not sure about the content of scripture WE CANNOT BE CONFIDENT of the reformed view of sola scriptura.
As for Mark 16, I suspect that Wayne Grudem did not say things quite the way you've represented him. The canon consists of books; but canonicity is not about individual verses, or even groups of verses. We simply cannot be ...
How Many Appearances Are Recorded of Christ After His Resurrection?
Ten: (1) Mark 16:9-11; John 20:11-18; (2) Matt 28:8-10; Mark 16:8; Luke 24:9-11; (3) Luke 24:34; (4) Mark 16:12,13; Luke 24:13-35; (5) Mark 16:14; Luke 24:36-49; John 20:19-23; (6) John 20:24-29; (7) Matt 28:16-20; Mark 16:15...
Does the Bible speak more about Hell than Heaven?
I've heard and read the same statement a number of times, but have never troubled myself to look up each passage. I'm not surprised that looking up "heaven" and "hell" in a concordance would give you contradictory results. T...
What Are the Signs Which Jesus Said "Shall Follow Them That Believe"?
Jesus did not promise that the signs referred to in Mark 16:17 should always follow. The speaking with tongues, casting out devils, taking up serpents, etc., were signs suitable for that age when the people, being densely ign...
What Does Faith Do for Us?
"Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Heb. 11:1). We are commanded to have faith in God and in Christ (John 14:1; John 6:29) and yet it, of itself, is the gift and work of God in us, t...
Do Mat. 16:28 and Mark 9:1 discredit the second coming of Christ and the millennial kingdom?
I believe these passages do refer to the coming kingdom of which some of the disciples would get a preview in the transfiguration that immediately followed. But this does not negate the reality of a future millennial reign of...

II. The Servant's early Galilean ministry 1:14--3:6

B. the appearances and ascension of Jesus 16:9-20

Jesus' appearance to the Eleven 16:14-18 (cf. Luke 24:36-43; John 20:19-23)

Mark said that Jesus appeared to the Eleven on this occasion. However, John qualified that statement by explaining that Thomas was absent (John 20:24). Mark was speaking of the Eleven as a group.16:14 This event evidently hap...

16:19 This event happened 40 days after the appearances that Mark just recorded (cf. Acts 1:3). Mark narrated the ascension and session of Jesus simply. The title "Lord Jesus"occurs only here and in Luke 24:3 in the Gospels. ...
4. The joy of participation 10:17-20

Luke stressed the joy that the Seventy experienced because they participated in God's program. As we have noted before, Luke often referred to the joy that Jesus brought to people (cf. 1:14, 46; 24:52; et al.). In view of Jes...
