Why wait to enjoy Jesus at His return?
My wife wants a divorce because of our financial troubles. What are your thoughts? And when will Jesus return? I believe I’m being stalked by a cult. Can you help?
“40 flood stories? Alternative lifestyles?”
How should we view the many flood stories worldwide in so many different cultures? My friend has embraced an alternative lifestyle. He now wants to lead a Bible study teaching affirming theology. What should I do? Some say we’re forgiven positionally but still need daily forgiveness. Is this true? What about 1 John 1:9?
It’s easy to worship God all day long…
My friend was in the military and experienced a failed mission years ago. He now suffers from PTSD and tremendous guilt. Can you offer any help to him? What does it really mean to offer your body as a “living sacrifice” to God (Romans 12:1)? And how is it worship?
“Why do Catholics believe wine becomes blood?”
How do I help my Catholic friend who believes every communion becomes the body and blood of Christ? What is the difference between your soul and your spirit? My mother died two weeks ago, and I wonder if she is already with God or has to wait. Can you explain that?
“Why forgive those who hurt you?”
I know someone who was hurt deeply by an abusive church experience. I shared with them the message of forgiveness found in Matthew 18. But I wonder if you have any other thoughts on forgiving people who have hurt you? A lady at my church keeps telling me that the Holy Spirit has new messages […]
Why ask for what you already have?
How is forgiveness different in the old covenant versus the new covenant? What is the finished work of Christ? What is the significance of Jesus being seated at God’s right hand? Why shouldn’t we continue to ask for forgiveness? What should we do instead?
“Predestined to be conformed”?*
What are the spiritual blessings that we’ve been given in Christ? What does it mean to be “conformed” to the image of Christ in Romans 8? Do we need to agree with everything that Israel ever does out of fear of being cursed (Genesis 12)? What does it mean to be unequally yoked? Doesn’t Genesis […]
“God’s grace excites me!”
One pastor said giving from the heart is the same as “sacrificial” giving. Is that a good way to describe it? How would you counsel someone who is committing sexual sin? Would you still tell them they’re “once saved, always saved”? What do they need to hear and believe for real change? I’m so excited […]
“Predestined to be conformed”?
What are the spiritual blessings that we’ve been given in Christ? What does it mean to be “conformed” to the image of Christ in Romans 8? Do we need to agree with everything that Israel ever does out of fear of being cursed (Genesis 12)? What does it mean to be unequally yoked? Doesn’t Genesis […]
“My mom died in the midst of an addiction. Was she not saved?”
What does it mean that all the promises are yes in Christ? I heard that you’re not truly saved if you can’t overcome every struggle. Is that true? If we die with unrepentant sin, are we still forgiven? Isn’t it amazing that God has time for each one of us? That’s the beauty of Christ […]
Plead the blood? Sins under the blood? (No, taken away!)
What does it mean that Jesus became sin? What are the implications of us becoming God’s righteousness? When do we ask God to forgive us of all our sins? Do we need to “plead the blood” of Jesus? Are our sins “under the blood”? How does Satan masquerade as an angel of light?
“So many don’t believe they’re totally forgiven – past, present, and future!”
How do we calculate “3 days and 3 nights” if Jesus died on Friday and rose on Sunday? Did Moses lose his salvation in Deuteronomy 32 when he disobeyed God? I’m continually surprised at how many Christians don’t fully trust in the finished work of Christ! How can I help them with 1 John 1:9? […]
“You make everything so simple!”
How does Christmas reveal that God is compatible with us? How does God reveal this amazing truth in our lives today? Can believers have their bodies cremated? Can they donate organs? You make everything so simple! Thank you (from Canada) for the grace message!
“I feel guilty over my adultery and divorce. I need encouragement!”
I struggle with guilt over my past adultery and divorce. When you warn people about not receiving God’s grace, who are you talking to? Aren’t believers forgiven and living under grace already? Help me understand, and I need encouragement. My son got taken in by a movement I’m worried about. I feel responsible and guilty! […]
“Only forgiven of past sins? Keep short accounts with God now?”
I misrepresented my motives for marriage years ago. Am I forgiven by God for the sin of dishonesty? How do we convince others of the finished work of Christ? What about 1 John 1:9? Who is it written to? How can we know for sure?
“I never really knew God until now!”
I suffer with sleep paralysis. What can I do? If our sins are forgiven, then do we have to give an account? I never really knew God until now! Does the punishment in Hell last forever or come to an end? How come God doesn’t use more “gotcha” moments to prove Jesus is Messiah? I […]
“I felt darkness while praying to be saved!”
My neighbors are awful. Is it okay to wish they didn’t come home? I felt so much darkness when I was praying for salvation 20 years ago. Now I look back, and I’m scared it wasn’t legitimate! Why does John 8 say the disciples needed to “abide” or “continue” in His word?
“Use your talents or be left behind?”
A popular pastor said we have to use our talents or we are like the third servant in Matthew 25. Is this true? Might we be left behind at Christ’s return if we have not done enough? Why am I being viciously attacked if I haven’t done anything wrong? What can I do?
The Ten Commandments, Melchizedek, and More!
Should believers still look to the moral law for daily living? Should I explore the paranormal? Was Jesus truly separated from the Father on the cross? How did humanity spread across the globe? How do I cope with the theological differences I have with my husband? Can you talk about Melchizedek and how he plays […]
Imagine humanity with no freedom to choose. Is that love?
Who is the wicked servant in Luke 12? And should believers be worried? Why does God allow the freedom to choose sin? Why did God create Adam and Eve if He knew they would fall? Who are the false teachers in Jude 1? Are they genuine teachers of God’s grace? How do I know if […]
