What is spiritual apathy, and how can we overcome it? We’ll also explore topics like Cain and Abel’s lineage, the serpent’s curse, being “unequally yoked,” whether loved ones can appear as angels, the tongues of angels, confessing sins, and which Bible is truly the original.

I know that Jesus never sinned, so my question is how is it that we are born sinners and yet Jesus was born of a woman and came as we did but wasn’t considered a sinner at birth as we are? Why are we considered sinners at birth but Jesus wasn't? 2. If they were all sleeping in the garden of Gethsemane, how do we know what Jesus prayed? How do we know what Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane? 3. How would you define spiritual apathy? How would you recognize it? How would one combat it in addition to the help of the Holy Spirit? 4. What did Jesus mean in Mark 12:24-27? Is He saying that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob are now alive? 5. Why do I feel so worthless and without purpose? I love the Lord, I just don’t feel that God loves me! 6. Who was the father of Cain and Abel? I don't find them listed in the genealogy of Adam, according to Genesis 5:3-4, also, 1 Chronicles 1:1-4. 7. In Genesis, was the serpent created with power of choice and reason? If not, why Biblically was it cursed by God the same as Adam and Eve? If so, would that not make the serpent the first sinner on earth? 8. As a church we speak strongly against being unequally yoked, especially in marriage (2 Corinthians 6:14–16; Deuteronomy 7:3–4). Yet in Esther’s case, she married a heathen king, and God used it to save His people. Does God allow His law to be broken to accomplish His purpose? 9. I didn't meet my grandfather but when I was 11 years old I saw a tall man near my house. Could this be that God showed me my grandfather as an angel? Does God allow loved ones who have passed away to appear to us as angels? 10. In 1 Corinthians 13:1, the scriptures say, "If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels." The tongues of men are the languages between different nations, which can be interpreted. But I don't believe any of us humans can interpret the tongues of angels. What are the tongues of angels talked about in this book? What are the tongues of angels mentioned in 1 Corinthians 13:1? 11. Do I need to name each sin when asking for forgiveness? What if I don't remember all of my sins? What about sins that I don't recognize as sin? 12. I was told the original Bible is the Ethiopian Bible, and that some words in the King James Bible are distorted. Is this true? Which Bible is considered the original? ➡️SUBSCRIBE https://bit.ly/3ABN_Subscribe 💗DONATE https://bit.ly/3ABN_Donate 📗FREE MONTHLY MAGAZINE https://bit.ly/3ABN_Magazine 🔗FACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/3abn.org/ 🔗INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/3abn_official/ 🔗TWITTER https://twitter.com/3abn 🔗WEBSITE https://3abn.org/ Help 3ABN keep streaming the gospel to the world.
