remind Christians to be pray always

teach Christians to be aware of false teaching

warn Christians on what will happen at the close of age

Answer Details

The message in the parable of the weeds is to teach Christians to be aware of false teaching. In the parable, Jesus tells of a farmer who sowed good seed in his field, but an enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat. The farmer decided to let the wheat and the weeds grow together until harvest time. The message of the parable is that in the world, there will always be false teachings and evil, but Christians should be discerning and not be deceived by false teachings. They should continue to grow and bear fruit, knowing that at the end of the age, the Lord will separate the wheat from the weeds.

In Paul's arrangement of the spiritual gifts in Corinthians, the last is

Answer Details

In Paul's arrangement of the spiritual gifts in Corinthians, the last is "interpretation of tongues". This means that the ability to interpret what is being spoken in tongues is considered the least important of the spiritual gifts. Speaking in tongues is seen as a more impressive gift, but without interpretation, it is meaningless to the rest of the congregation. Therefore, Paul emphasizes the importance of interpretation to edify the church.

'''Behold, the people of Israel are too many....come lets us deal shrewdly with them, last they multiply....''

In the statement above, the first step by the new king of Egypt was to

cast all Hebrew male children into the Nile

impose heavy tax on them

kill all Hebrew male children

set taskmasters over them to afflict them with burdens

Answer Details

The first step taken by the new king of Egypt was to set taskmasters over the Israelites to afflict them with burdens. The statement comes from the biblical account of the Israelites' enslavement in Egypt, as described in the book of Exodus. According to the account, the new king of Egypt was afraid that the Israelites were becoming too numerous and might pose a threat to his rule. His solution was to impose harsh slave labor on them, using taskmasters to force them to work on construction projects and other tasks. Although the king's actions became increasingly brutal, including the order to kill all Hebrew male children, the first step was to set taskmasters over them to afflict them with burdens.

In his teaching on partiality, James declares that mercy triumphs over judgment. This means that showing mercy to others is more important than passing judgment on them. Instead of being critical and judgmental, James encourages his readers to be merciful and compassionate towards others, just as God has been merciful towards them. By showing mercy, we can overcome our natural tendency to judge others based on their outward appearances or circumstances, and instead treat them with kindness and respect, as fellow human beings deserving of love and compassion.

The kingdom of Israel was divided because the

kingdom was too large to be administered

leadership wanted to create more nations

last two kings made unwise policies

Answer Details

The kingdom of Israel was divided because the last two kings made unwise policies. After the death of King Solomon, his son Rehoboam became king, but he refused to reduce the burden of taxes and labor on the people, which led to a rebellion in the northern part of the kingdom. The ten northern tribes formed their own kingdom, Israel, and made Jeroboam their king, while the two southern tribes remained loyal to Rehoboam and formed the kingdom of Judah. This division was caused by the unwise policies of the last two kings and resulted in the two kingdoms existing separately with different kings and different systems of government.

Prophet Hosea named his second child Not Pitied because God would no more pity the "house of Israel." In the book of Hosea in the Old Testament, Hosea was instructed by God to marry a promiscuous woman as a representation of how Israel had been unfaithful to Him by worshipping idols and turning away from His commands. Hosea's children were given symbolic names as a message to the people of Israel. The second child, whose name was Lo-Ruhamah (meaning "not pitied"), symbolized that God would no longer have pity on the house of Israel because of their continued disobedience.

For worshipping the molten calf, God described the Israelites as "a stiff-necked people." This means that the Israelites were stubborn and disobedient to God's commands. The term "stiff-necked" comes from the idea of an animal that refuses to move its head or neck, symbolizing a stubborn resistance to direction or guidance. In the context of the Israelites, it suggests a rebellious attitude towards God's authority and a refusal to follow His laws.

The statement "Can any one forbid water for baptizing these people who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?" was made by Peter at the conversion of Cornelius.

When Peter arrived at Cornelius' house, he preached the gospel to Cornelius and his household. While he was still speaking, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they began to speak in tongues and praise God. Peter then asked, "Can anyone forbid water for baptizing these people who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?" and he went on to baptize Cornelius and his household. This event marked an important moment in the early church as it showed that the gospel was not just for the Jews but for the Gentiles as well.
