Panorama of Prophecy: Episode 16 | "A Woman in the Wilderness" | Doug Batchelor Bible Questions: 00:00 – Intro
06:30 – Is it correct to Tithe on 100% of what is received, or would it be necessary to tithe on the increase?
08:53 – Who wrote the book of Job? How did Job know that Satan and God had a conversation concerning him? Did God tell Job?
09:53 – Do I need to get Baptized before Tithing? Where can I send the money?
11:23 – Should I pay Tithe on the Inheritance gift I received?
12:34 – How can Satan be burned and be ashes in Ezekiel 28, then be alive for the 1000 years and finally be cast to Hell?
13:26 – In Revelation 11 verse 19, It tells us that John saw the Ark of the Covenant in his temple. Is this literal, or is there another meaning?
15:02 – Can intercessory prayer work on behalf of someone who has committed the unpardonable sin?
16:46 – In 1 Thessalonians 5 verse 18, it says to give thanks in all circumstances. Does God expect us to thank Him for all the evil in the world?

21:29 – How can I get over my addiction to smoking and horror movies?
24:46 – As it was written in Revelation 21 verse 1, is it literal that there "is no more Sea"?

Warm and Healthy Homes in Peru
ADRA is partnering with a Quechua people group living in the highlands of Peru to build warm and healthy homes. Tiny one-room dwellings made of mud bricks, dirt floors, and no insulation from the cold winter winds are replaced with insulated houses. These homes also have wood floors and solar heating. New cooking stoves with chimneys to send the smoke outside provide healthier environments, especially for the elderly and young children. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrpIvV1z8sg

There is a stigma around mental health; therefore, it is important to have conversations about the topic because all of us approach our mental wellness differently. For years, Liz Pule did not pay attention to her emotional wellbeing until she hit the wall and felt very empty. When she turned to God's Word, resting in Jesus, and being in nature Liz found such comfort and healing. She shares how the Sabbath and daily connection with Jesus has been a soothing balm to her mental wellness aches and has pulled her towards peace during a season of burn out and depression.
