Bible Questions and Answers - Part 1

In this message, Pastor Ross addresses questions from the Bible submitted by congregation members. Questions include: 1) How did we get so many different animals today if Noah only took less than 6800 animals on the ark? And does diversification of species prove evolution? 2) How did Noah live to be 950 years old and how does that compare to our current lifespans? 3) What was the lesson God taught Satan through Job's trials? 4) Why did Jesus tell His disciples to buy a sword in Luke 22:36 and then rebuke Peter for using it several hours later? 5) In John 20:23, does Jesus give His disciples the power to forgive the sins of others? 6) Does natural ability play any part in the teaching and preaching of Scripture? 7) What makes the Apostle Paul so important in church history?
