“If God is love, why the final judgment?”
If God is love, and if love keeps no record of wrongs, then isn’t the whole world forgiven and saved? Wouldn’t that mean no final judgment? Is “once saved, always saved” really the truth? And what about Christians who end up sinning so badly?
“Satan is all bark and no bite!”
What are the beliefs of Seventh Day Adventists? Are they biblical? If we can’t lose our salvation, then why does Satan bother with us? Is there any lesson to be learned from the barrenness of women in the Old Testament? How can we more easily be at peace with others?

“It’s not even me. It’s sin doing it!”

What does “died to sin” even mean?
Does God punish us with circumstances today? If Jesus died for our sins, why do we still battle temptation? Is it okay to listen to rock music? My mother passed away yesterday. How do I move on?
Die to self? Or count yourself alive?
Why did Jesus sometimes ask people to keep His miracles a secret? Do we need to take up our cross every day? Die daily? If not, does this mean there’s no struggle? Is this just semantics? How is this an important and powerful truth in the moment of temptation?
Works burned? Suffer loss? Here’s the truth!
