Questions and Answers

I am searching for lessons on the synoptic gospels. I hope to answer the following questions:

 
1.  Why are three so similar and John is not?
2.  What specific stories are told in Matthew, Luke and Mark and how are they similar and how are they different?
3.  Why are Matthew, Mark and Luke referred to as the synoptic gospels?
 
Can you provide some resources to answer my questions?
I have a question that you may be able to answer.  The JW's say that the word "hell" in the Bible does not always refer to the lake of fire but sometimes the abode of the dead or the grave.  I have heard others say that when the terms sheol, Hades, etc are translated "hell" that the King James Translators understood that it was a reference to the lake of fire. Which is true?
Is it ok to seek a sign from God? Doesn't seeking a sign indicate lack of faith?
Doesn't the Bible indicate that God has already chosen those He will save, we just do not know who they are, because we do not have the "foreknowledge" spoken about in the Bible?
I would like to have some insight on the subject once in grace
always in grace.  Me and some of my buddies have been discussing it and I am not sure I understand it.
