Question 1 (Proverbs 15:3, 29)

There is a seeming contradiction in Proverbs 15. Verse 3 says the eyes of the Lord are in every place, but verse 29 says the eyes of the Lord are far from the wicked.

Question 2 (Numbers 32)

In Numbers 32, it sounds as if Gad, Reuben, and Manasseh had time to build cities before Israel crosses the Jordan. How did they have time to build cities?

Question 3 (John 4:44)

In John 4:44, Jesus says a prophet has no honor in his hometown. Why then does the next verse say that the Galileans welcomed Him?

Question 4 (John 4:11)

If the Samaritan’s are calling Jacob their father, wouldn’t they (Samaritan’s and Jews) both be apart of Israel “Gods chosen people” from the Old Testament? Why do the gospels usually refer to the “Jews” rather than “Israelites”? Is it because back in the day they split from one nation into two—the northern (Israel) and the southern (Judah)?

Question 5 (Numbers 31)

In Numbers 31, Israel is supposed to utterly destroy Midian. I have heard people say they don’t believe in the God of the Bible because of His wiping out of the nations (genocide) without any mercy. How should I answer them in regards to the conquest of the land?

Question 6 (John 3:5)

In John 3:5, why does Jesus say we have to be born of water and the Spirit to enter the kingdom of God?
