“I’ve lost my motivation!”
Sometimes, I wonder about my salvation. I did backslide a while ago. Now I wonder about my desire to read the Bible, attend church and donate money. I guess I’m just wondering why I’ve lost my motivation and how I can get it back!

Does Christ live in everyone? No!

“It’s not even me. It’s sin doing it!”
What kind of repentance does it really take to be saved? How can we be “perfected for all time” if we still sin? If we are not under the Law, then why does the New Testament still mention “commandments” for believers? What is the power called “sin” in Genesis 4? And how does it relate […]

“I don’t want to go to church anymore!”
I have no desire to go to church lately, and I wonder if I might be going to Hell. Are there new apostles today? Have the spiritual gifts gone away now? What is “testing the spirits” or discernment of spirits? Is it about spiritual warfare and demons?
“The Law is not multiple choice…”
Was the sin of Adam and Eve passed down to everyone? What can we say to Muslims who emphasize that Ishmael was born before Isaac?

“Strict religion made me sin more!”
My dad passed away last Fall and was not a believer. I get very depressed about where he might be. Can you help? Can a genuine believer fall into habitual sin? I grew up in a very legalistic environment, and I think that just made me want to sin more.
Have spiritual gifts ceased today?
Why do you say there are two kinds of sanctification? Is it possible to be saved and be radically confused about the Law? Are pastors the only ones who can have the gift of healing? Are the gifts of the Spirit still around today? Why does Solomon say there’s nothing new under the sun in […]

Are there varying degrees of rewards in Heaven? About half of our congregation believes they can lose their salvation. I found this out when our pastor taught on Hebrew 6. What are your thoughts?
“Does God need us to give Him glory?”
How do we “work out our salvation with fear and trembling” (Philippians 2)? How do we give God glory? Do we need to? Does Mark 10 support the prosperity gospel? I was excommunicated from my church for questioning their methodology. How can I find a healthy church?
