Work out your salvation with fear and trembling?

Do we need to confess each sin to be forgiven? What about James 5:16 and confessing to one another? How do we “work out our salvation” and why does Paul say “with fear and trembling”? Does God pre-select some people for salvation leaving others with no chance to believe?

“Exorcism isn’t enough!”

Why didn’t God give us the new covenant from the start? What is the unpardonable sin? What about Christians who just continue in sin? What was Jesus trying to say in Luke 11 about demon possession? How can we effectively witness to those who don’t believe in the Bible? Is it wrong for me to […]

“Are there TWO kinds of forgiveness from God?”

How do I know if I have God’s favor? I want to walk in righteousness and do His will and be successful. What’s the best way? Are there two kinds of forgiveness? My pastor told me there’s judicial forgiveness and patriarchal (or relational) forgiveness. Where is that idea coming from? Is it true? And what […]

“Why not just sin if we’re totally forgiven?”

Why not just sin if we’re totally forgiven? Is there a second baptism of the Holy Spirit that includes tongues? When do you receive the Spirit – at salvation or later? Are both men and women made in God’s image? I’m born again now, and I wonder if I should continue to go to my […]

Can those who miss the return of Christ still be saved later? Is water baptism necessary for salvation? When we sin, do we move out from under God’s protection? How does Romans 8:30 play into predestination? Why did Paul engage in purification rituals in Acts 21? What role does obedience play in salvation? Did Jesus […]

Is James 5:19-20 evangelistic or is it about rescuing a believer from struggle? Are we sinners, saints, or both? Will we recognize, even mourn, the loss of loved ones in Heaven or on the new Earth? My cousin was in a coma and died. I prayed that his sins would be forgiven and now wonder […]
