Is Saul a prophet?
In three important places in 1 Samuel, the narrator describes Saul as a prophet-king (10: 1-27; 18:10; 19:18-24).
Who was king after Saul died?
Saul’s only surviving son, Ishbaal, was anointed as his successor, supported by the northern tribes. But the southern elders went to Hebron, David’s military base, and in due course anointed David king “over the house of Judah.”
How many appearances did Jesus make after his resurrection?
Matthew has two post-resurrection appearances, the first to Mary Magdalene and “the other Mary” at the tomb, and the second, based on Mark 16:7, to all the disciples on a mountain in Galilee, where Jesus claims authority over heaven and Earth and commissions the disciples to preach the gospel to the whole world.
Did anyone go to heaven before Jesus?
A. No one could enter Heaven before Jesus went to the cross. But the promise of His coming can be seen throughout the Old Testament. People in those times who died in faith of this coming redeemer went to a place called Paradise to wait in comfort for Jesus to come and pay for their sins (Luke 23:43).
Are there any Christians before Jesus Christ?
“Christians before Jesus was born” is an oxymoron. There is no such thing. You can’t believe Christ is the son of God if there is no Christ. And fwiw, many Christians do not believe that any Jews – before or after Christ’s birth – got into Heaven.
Did Abraham go straight to Heaven?
Technically Abraham did not go straight to heaven as many people think. Abraham and all other rightious people did not go to heaven until Jesus Christ the son of God came to earth in human form to die for our sins.
Did everyone before Jesus go to Hell?
Everyone before Jesus’s death went to hell. Even the people with the misfortune to die 10 minutes before Christ still went to hell. There was no heaven until Christ died. Thousands upon millions of people were condemned to hell because they had the misfortune of dying before Jesus.
