Do you obey ALL of Jesus’ teachings?

What do you think of “red letter Christians” who say they obey every word of Jesus? Did Moses really have a stuttering problem? What does it mean that “no created thing” can separate us from the love of God?

“The Holy Spirit spoke through me!”

Does the Holy Spirit sometimes speak through us? What does that entail? Is “once saved, always saved” really true? What about being lukewarm? Isn’t there an unpardonable sin? What’s on your heart and mind lately, Andrew? How should we view the impossible demands of the Sermon on the Mount? My long-time boyfriend and I are […]

Does God really “scourge” us? (Hebrews 12)

Why does Jesus tell people to chop off their hands and pluck out their eyes? What is He really getting at? What does God’s discipline look like? How is it different from punishment? Why does Hebrews 12 talk about God “scourging” us?

“I’m afraid to lose my daughter to meth!”

I’ve seen people give away money online to others, and I wonder if I should do the same. Is that what Paul meant about a cheerful giver? I’ve lost my two sons, and now I’m afraid I may lose my daughter to drug abuse. What should I do? I’m starting to see how I can […]

How can I know if I’m chosen by God? I don’t have many friendships and wonder if it’s my fault? What should I do? Why did Jesus oh seem to hesitate but then miraculously make wine for the Cana wedding? Does the Holy Spirit help us keep the Law? Does He help us keep the […]

Is your “old self” still around at times?

Are we sinning if we don’t live up to Jesus‘s teachings in the Sermon on the Mount? What happened to our old self at salvation? Why do we still struggle with sin today? Where do sinful thoughts come from? I always thought the “turn the other cheek” concept was about maintaining open conversation with others. […]

“You’re ignoring the consequences of sin!”

My friend says Jesus is helping him keep the Sermon on the Mount. How would you respond to him? He also says we Christians have a deceitfully wicked heart and that we are still the old self. What are your thoughts? Andrew, I think you’re misunderstanding people and not accounting for their struggle and the […]

“Why don’t we always feel God?”

Can I give publicly or should I only give in secret? What is the context of the Sermon on the Mount? Why don’t we always feel God‘s presence? Do we go to be with God immediately when we die?

“Should you really ‘give in secret’ as Jesus said?”

I know that our spirit goes to Heaven, but what happens to our soul? Should we really try to “give in secret” as Jesus said in Matthew 6? My Bible study leader says we need to the Holy Spirit to help us keep the Law. What can I do to help him understand the truth?

The people who heard the Sermon on the Mount were amazed. Why exactly? What is the sermon’s true meaning in context? I’m concerned about my son who is graduating from university soon. He has dreams of financial independence and being a millionaire. Can you speak to him? I’m so grateful for The Grace Message – […]

How do you respond to someone who says we believers are under the Law concerning tithing? Can Christians can lose their salvation if they are sealed with the Holy Spirit? One of my family members is acting bizarrely, and I wonder how “making it right with your brother” relates to my situation?

My mother is upset there’s no marriage in Heaven. Why does Luke 6 read differently from Matthew 5 in terms of the “killer sermon” of Jesus? Is Paul actually teaching we’re not under the Law for salvation, but still under it for daily living? Is it selfish or sinful to save for retirement? Shouldn’t we […]

08.13.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

What is the purpose of the Sermon on the Mount? Can believers have a hard heart? I sometimes feel a lack of compassion for other people who suffer tragedy. I wonder if there is something wrong with me. My husband is involved with another woman and shows no remorse or regret. What should I do? […]

08.10.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

Do we need to repent of each sin in order to be restored as children of God? Does Hebrews 10 teach us that God took away our feelings of shame? Jesus told the disciples to teach everything He commanded, so why don’t we see their epistles filled with instruction from the Sermon on the Mount? […]

Can a person be a Christian but still not find the narrow way? I was the victim of a violent and brutal crime that has affected me my whole life. I can’t seem to find forgiveness for this person. Is my salvation in jeopardy because I can’t forgive them?

06.07.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

Is there a difference between surrendering and submitting to God? How can we say the Sermon on the Mount is not a passage for Christian growth when Jesus told the disciples in Matthew 28 to teach “everything” He commanded? Isn’t being baptized in water an important act of obedience? What does the Bible say about […]

05.23.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

How does God view the church today? Does He see us as lazy, falling asleep, and passive? The Lord’s Prayer says one must ask for forgiveness. Is this the way for believers today to continually be more forgiven? Why does the prayer sound so conditional?

05.08.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

Which commands is Jesus talking about in Matthew 5:19? Are we least in Heaven if we don’t obey the Law? What happens when we die? Is there an end to the punishment in Hell? Why didn’t God allow Moses to go into the Promised Land?

05.05.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

Why does one group of Christians judge another group? Does any part of the Sermon on the Mount encourage us today? What about the Beatitudes? I would like to get married and have children, but I’m suffering from anxiety in my decision-making process and wonder if it’s God, or if I can move forward in […]
