Anxiety, Forgiveness, and New Life
Will there be a third temple ushering in the end times? I pray all the time, trying to give God my anxiety, but I still feel stressed. Am I not trusting Him? Why didn’t Adam just ask God to forgive him? Who was Melchizedek? Why is he important today?
Prayer, Salvation, and Choices
Should we petition God in the courts of heaven? I’ve heard that, but I don’t know what it means! We visited a church, and the pastor said we can be 98% sure of our salvation! What is Molinism? Is it somewhere between Calvinism and Arminianism? What are your thoughts on it?
Truth or Fear
How does living under God’s grace affect the way we pray? Did the sons of Noah have their own clans and languages? I believe people operate from either truth or fear. What are your thoughts?
Prayer and Healing. Sarah and Hagar. Adam and Eve.
What are your thoughts on James 5 with regard to prayer and healing and forgiveness? Who are the two mothers in Galatians 4 and what do they represent? What was the original sin? And what does it mean for us today?
“I’m Keeping the Law Anyway!”
Does the law restrain us from sinning? What happens to babies when they die? Can you pray for my family during this time of loss? Is there pain or suffering in Heaven? I’m keeping the law anyway, so I just don’t see the problem!
“What if we sin deliberately?”
How should we talk to God in prayer? I haven’t been very kind to others lately, and I wonder if I’m really saved. Some people say the message of God’s grace is antinomianism. What is that? And what about the “sins of the high hand”? What does it mean to “strengthen our limbs” in Hebrews […]
Are Babies Raptured? Is Silent Prayer Okay?
My friend asks: How can we say the New Testament is God’s infallible message? What about babies and pets at the rapture? Do you have to pray out loud to be heard by God?
Demon Possession, Praying for Satan, and Best Bibles
Should we pray for Satan? Can he be saved? What is the best Bible version? What are your thoughts on demon possession and deliverance for believers?
“I may not have much time left…”
What is the status of spiritual gifts in the church today? Have they gone away? Are there still consequences for sin, even though we’re forgiven? I have an immune disorder, and I’m just not sure how to pray or how to be a good steward of the time I have left?
Salvation. Good Works. Prayer. Brokenness.
How should we interpret the “if you continue” verse in Colossians 1? My coworker is blessing everything in our warehouse! How was Jesus born without sin? How should we view Israel today in light of Jesus? Is God trying to break us? What does it mean to pray for something but to be “willing” for […]
Forsaken? Fall Away? Pray to Saints?
Why did Jesus ask God about being forsaken? Did the Father forsake the Son? My denomination taught me that you can “fall away,” and they used 2 Peter 2 as their proof. Can you explain that passage? Are some Catholics saved? What does God think about their praying to saints? What is a saint?
Forgiveness. Prayer. Spiritual Gifts.
Why did God require the shedding of blood for forgiveness of sins? I told someone Jesus came to serve us, but they didn’t get it. What are your thoughts on cessationism? Have the spiritual gifts stopped? I have been experiencing disappointment in my prayer life. Am I praying wrong?
Prayer, Worry, and Communion
What does being a “bondservant” of Christ entail? Should we even pray about physical things? Or is the only comfort that God provides spiritual in nature? What does Matthew 6 really mean about not worrying? I read 1 Corinthians 11 about examining yourself” before communion, and now I’m concerned. What is that passage saying?
Prayer, Self-Worth, and the Soul
How much should we depend on prayer? How should we pray? I’ve been struggling with doubt and self-worth for a while now. Can you help me? What is the difference between the soul and the spirit? Is it possible that we lose salvation in the soul, but not in the spirit?
Ask the Holy Spirit for Access? Just Claim Healing?
Andrew, has God ever inspired you to pray for something in life or ministry and you struggled along the way? I heard a minister say you have to ask the Holy Spirit for access to God in prayer. Is that true? I have some major health issues, and some people tell me that I should […]
Saved Without Good Theology?
Is it sinful to follow company policy and use a colleague’s preferred pronouns? Did God listen to my prayers before I was saved? If you don’t believe in “once saved, always saved,” you’re not saved at all?
“How should we pray? Should we sense the Spirit?”
Our pastor cheated on his wife and refused to step down. What are your thoughts? How do we approach God in prayer? And what about asking for relief or healing? How do we sense or feel the Holy Spirit’s presence in our lives?
“How powerful is Satan?”
What kind of power and influence does Satan really have? How do I trust God when I see hospital workers not tending to my mother the way they should? Is God still concerned with the old covenant? How simple is salvation? Do I need to feel assurance for it to be true? What was Israel […]
Is the whole world saved? No!
How can we know if David is in heaven today? Does 1 Timothy 4 teach that the whole world is saved apart from hearing and believing? Is Jesus’s mother Mary queen of heaven? Or what role does she play?
“I can’t love God with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength!”
Why does Paul say the only thing that counts is keeping God’s commands (1 Corinthians 7:19)? I haven’t prayed or gone to church in months. Where is my desire? Was I not saved in the right way? I’m having trouble with loving the Lord with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Can you help […]
