“My uncle felt fire in his heart!”

What do you think about the darkened sun in Matthew 24? Metaphorical or actual? What are your thoughts on preterism? My uncle said he experienced fire when he was saved. Is that something we should expect in a true conversion? How can I finally get some peace in my struggle with lust?

“Healing? Tongues? Miracles? Is that the focus?”

My wife and I see the Christian life very differently. She is focused a lot on healing and tongues. What can I do? Is the new heart just a metaphor? Or did we literally and actually get a new heart when we were born again?
