“They won’t believe me!”
Is Hebrews 6 addressing believers, or unbelievers, or both? A family member says I hurt them, and they will no longer talk to me. But what they currently believe I did isn’t actually true. What should I do? How does our righteousness factor into daily struggles with those who hurt us?
“How do I deal with regret and missing out?”
What do I do with regret over past decisions and the idea of missing out on God’s best? What about rewards? Blessings? Earthly consequences? I have MS, and I take prescription medications for my pain. I wonder if what I’m doing is wrong and if I am failing to keep my promises to God. I […]
Do you have authority over demons?
Why was God mad at Balaam when he appeared to obey? Is “once saved, always saved” actually true? Should I get baptized a second time if I was already baptized as a child? What kind of authority do we have over demons? How should we exercise it? How can I find relief from intrusive thoughts […]
Are pastors and elders biblical? Yes!
How can I know for sure that I’m saved? My son was killed in a car accident. Where was God‘s protection? Was his death untimely? Are paid pastors and the concept of elders a product of Constantine or Calvin? Or are they actually biblical?
“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 […]
Salvation for anyone? But the Bible says “predestined”!
I reported my friend because of the way they treat their granddaughter. I don’t know if I did the right thing. What is your viewpoint on Easter given its pagan roots? How can salvation be available for everyone if the Bible actually uses the word “predestined”? And what about “many are called but few are […]
Forgive to be forgiven? Justified by works?
What kind of repentance actually saves? How should we view the Lord’s Prayer if believers are already forgiven? Why does James 2 say “justified by works” three times? Who was Melchizedek and why is he mentioned in the Old and New Testaments? Do we lose our painful memories when we get to Heaven?
Do we need to “hold fast” to stay saved?
Why do Hebrews and Colossians say to “hold fast“ or “continue”? Does this imply we could lose our salvation? Is Romans 7 about Paul before or after his conversion? When Romans 8 says “no condemnation”, is it referring to total forgiveness of our future sins? Why do some Christians seem to have a negative view […]
Can I really do ALL things through Christ?
What is Paul’s thorn in the flesh? Why did King Saul prophesy? Am I free to gather with other Christians in a home on any day rather than Sunday church? If a believer dies by suicide, are they still saved? Did angels have relations with humans to produce offspring? Is once-saved-always-saved true? What does “I […]
Does the Melchizedek story mean we should tithe?
Does “eternal salvation” in Hebrews 5:9 offer evidence of the security of the believer? Can you explain the mention of Melchizedek in Hebrews? In Nehemiah 8, why did the people sink into despair upon hearing the Law? How can we deal with rejection from our good friends who no longer speak to us because of […]
The Narrow Gate
Is it okay to participate in Jewish cultural events as a Jewish Christian? When did salvation go from believing in God to believing only in Jesus Christ? What does the Bible say about cremation? Is Matthew 18 speaking about a future church?
“My Sister Betrayed Me!”*
I feel like my sister betrayed me with my ex-husband. What should I do? How were people saved before Jesus? Is the paradise that Jesus mentioned the same as Heaven? After two years of discipling my friend, he now says he wants to take a break. What should I do? *Previously aired *Previously aired
“My Sister Betrayed Me!”
I feel like my sister betrayed me with my ex-husband. What should I do? How were people saved before Jesus? Is the paradise that Jesus mentioned the same as Heaven? After two years of discipling my friend, he now says he wants to take a break. What should I do?
Not enough faith to be healed?
I want to understand the Bible better, but where should I start? Also, how do I find verses on a particular struggle? What do you think about “not having enough faith to be healed”? What are your thoughts on the death penalty? What does it mean to “work out your salvation with fear and trembling”? […]
“You’re like the Holy of Holies!”
Can you walk away from the faith and no longer abide in Christ? Didn’t Jesus teach that we should keep the Sabbath? Were the angels at Jesus’s tomb a fulfillment of the angels that were on the ark of the covenant?
What does “living sacrifice” mean?
What does Romans 12 mean about proving the will of God? How do I explain the true meaning of water baptism to my brother who thinks it saves him? God knows what we need before we ask? What if someone’s behavior doesn’t show signs of new life? Could they still be saved?
“I’ve repeatedly failed God!”
How do we know the narrow gate refers to grace? Did the Crusades have anything to do with authentic Christianity? Why is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit an unforgivable sin? Did I commit it? God asked me to be obedient as a teenager, yet I repeatedly failed Him. Could it be that I’m not really […]
“You will be saved, you and your household”
Why does Acts say “you will be saved, you and your household” if each individual needs to believe? What “commandments” does God refer to in Revelation 14? Why would Jesus call the church “dead” in Revelation if we are alive in Christ? If people in Jesus’ day called Satan “the prince of demons”, then who […]
12.28.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
I’ve heard that salvation is guaranteed but rewards are not. Is this true? The world says that we learn from failure, not success. To what degree should we believers take this to heart? How does it not become a “shoulda, woulda, coulda” scenario? I’m questioning why God is allowing so many negative circumstances in my […]
12.18.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
I did something I’m not proud of, and I’m feeling depressed, like God doesn’t love me anymore. What can I do? I made a promise to God, and then I broke it recently. Am I still OK with the Lord? I want to be closer to Him. What is the discipline of the Lord in […]
