Few Questions about the bible.

Someone explain some of these to me.

1.) "Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live;" Ezekiel 25:20

So god gave out bad laws on purpose? No wonder the evil devil man is still here God enjoys his company and their teammates!!!

2.) "Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom." Matthew 16:28
There is also the same thing from Mark and Lukes gospels. Basically its saying Jesus will return before some of his listeners will die. Well their all dead and he didnt come back before they died, did he forget what he said and broke his word?

3.) "And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover." Mark 16:17-18

Even in the Hebrew it has the same meaning, it says for the most part if you believe in god, you have the ability to play with snakes, and drink poison and end up not being harmed at all. So if I place my faith with Jesus and the Bible I can go drink a gallon of Ricin and live? Why dont we just send a bunch of bible worshippers to war when chemical weapons are involved we could never lose they wouldnt be touched!!!! The army needs to check into this.

1. First It's Ezekiel 20:25 not 25:20. Second God never does anything bad or wrong. If you knew the context of the scriputers your pulling out you wouldn't jump to conclusions. The Israelites failed to obey Gods righteous and good laws, so God gave them over to their own made up laws, whereby they would die in them. "Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:" Romans 1:21,24

2. The reference is not to his final coming to judge the world, but to his spiritual coming to establish his kingdom. This was fulfilled on the day of Pentecost. Mark shows the meaning by substituting, Till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power (Mr 9:1). The coming of the Son of man in his kingdom means, therefore, the same as the kingdom of God come with power. Compare Ac 1:8 Lu 24:49. The kingdom came with power on the day of Pentecost (Ac 2:1).

3. this is a promise limited to the apostolic age .
