If you could meet any three people in the Bible, who would they be? and what would you ask them?

One God, All in all
King Solomon - probably the greatest mystic this world have ever seen if the esoteric movements can be believed, the reason will be easy which is to learn from him.
John, the writer of Revelation - want to bring him to our modern world and then ask him to explain to me his own book in the light of what I showed him.
Jesus Christ - to ask him what he think about all the different opinions about him.

The Angel that told Mary about her pregnancy. Ask him to explain.
Jesus, To ask him how he intended the Church to develop.
Mary Magdalene, to explain her role as a disciple and her subsequent life and work.

Eve, Ruth, & Mary Magdalene.
Eve because she was the first woman. It'd be cool if I can have intercourse with the first human female!
Ruth because I think she used to be a pagan temple prostitute to Baal.
Madelene because they say she was a prostitute.

Paul, Peter, John.
Peter has the simple look at the faith. Paul has a western logic form of faith.
John has this wisdom from age and more years in the faith than Paul and Peter. John was also alive when the next generation of church leaders were in place, Clement, Barnabus, etc... So we could see if it was started off on the right foot,and how close it is today...
THEN I'd hit John and his claims of sinless with Paul and watch Peter's eyes roll...

John the Baptist. Jehovah's Witness say he can not go to heaven because he died before Jesus did. I would ask him "what do you think about that?"
Daniel. I would ask him if he meant to say God's Kingdom will eliminate all other kingdoms per Daniel 2:44
Jesus. "Are you for real?"

I'd like to talk with Adam to figure what exactly it was he did that got God angry with him. That would answer lots of questions.
And perhaps Moses, to figure out if there was any connection between Judaism and the Egyptian monotheism of Echnaton.
And lets throw in Melchizedek also. He is privy to a lot of interesting information.

I will like to meet Jesus, Abraham and Paul.
For Jesus, I will like to ask Him how it is possible for Him to obey the Father in the time of crisis. For me, I struggle with obeying God's will in my life. So I want to know how He is able to put His Father's will above His own.
For the other two, I just want to meet them.

Judas I think he got the short straw when all he did was fullfill prophecy and bring about gods plans
Thomas because he was a doubter and I want to know what he saw and what it means for me as a doubter.
Jesus I guess for the last spot

I suspect we will meet them all if they went to heaven and we follow.
Or, we will meet the ones that went to hell if we follow them.
But keeping to this thread....
The Carpenter first as He is my Inspiration.
The Devil Himself to ask about his fall from heaven.
And then whoever happens to be the Doorkeep.
These control my situation before heaven and my pending entry.
Info in advance would be nice.
But I further suspect the response to the asking....
'Do you not have the prophets and the scribes?'

I'd like to meet the author of the Gospel of Mark, to speak with him about how he compiled his narrative story, what were his sources, what was his process, etc. Then ask him what he thought about Matthew's version, and Luke's version, as well as all the other versions that were being used prior to later church councils narrowing them down to just four. And what he thought of their choices at that council.
I'd like to meet the author of the Gospel of John, to understand his community's traditions, mystical practices, etc., and how that influenced the image of Jesus he portrays. (Throw the author of Thomas in there too).
I'd like to meet Jesus and ask him his thoughts about the Gospel stories, and then if he recognized anything close to his own heart in institutional religion in his name, and how similar the religions of fundamentalist Christianity were to those whom he rebuked as whitewashed sepulchers in his day, making everything an external matter of law, as opposed to the heart. Those, and a bunch of understandings through his eyes prior to everything subsequent to him. Add to that his relationship with Mary Magdalene and what kind of influence she had on him in how he came to see the world and shape his views and his own self-knowledge.

Abraham: What is your core philosphy?
Solomon: Come on, where did you bury it all?
Jesus: Wanna be my roomy?
Jesus would be choice number one for me, and I'm sure there would be a myriad of questions I could think of to ask if I thought about it long enough (particularly about issues like Hell, homosexuality, why God exists, etc.). Learning how well modern teachings mesh-up with Christ's original teachings would be nice.
The other two...not so obvious. One of the angels would be a nice choice. I have often wondered just how powerful they are, how much influence God gives them over the physical world and how often they directly intervene in human activities. The third would probably be a human figure with great wisdom or historical experience like Solomon, Noah, David, Peter, Paul, etc. The questions would depend on who it was.

The Apostle Paul whom the resurrected Lord Christ Jesus SEND to the Gentiles and Jews for today's Gospel of Christ and Gospel of God Grace. I would join Paul as an evangelist, which is my calling from God the Father. For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ.

Tough question!......had to answer twice!!!!
The Carpenter of course.

Then maybe John of the Baptist....and what frame of mine it takes to eat WILD honey and wear camel hair shirts!
Bathsheba...just to have a look at woman who could tempt a man like David!
