“Does God close one door and open another?”

They say when God closes one door, He opens another. Is this true? I’m a born-again believer, but sometimes I get drunk. Could I lose my salvation? I’m in a nine-year dating relationship with an abusive person. Should I wait on God to reveal what to do? Does the gift of tongues involve angelic languages […]

“Have tongues and prophecy ceased?”

What did Jesus do in His early years? Does the word “commandments” in Revelation refer to the Old Testament law? Have certain spiritual gifts ceased now? Will they in the future? What about tongues and prophecy?

“Lawlessness” is bad, right? But we’re not under the Law!

Why is my church teaching that it’s wrong to play musical instruments during the service? Where do they see that in the Bible? Why does Jesus reject people in Matthew 7 for their “lawlessness” if we are not under the Law? Is there a gift of wisdom and knowledge? If so, what does that look […]

“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? How do the Jews obey the Law if they are not offering sacrifices any longer? Why didn’t Jesus appear to more people after His resurrection? Plenty of people could say […]

“Are there two kinds of tongues?”

What does it mean to be with Jesus where He is? And why did He pray for it? What is the true gift of tongues? Why do we see something else at times in today’s churches? How do I know if I’m being called to serve in ministry?

“I struggle with sexual fantasy…”

What is the gift of tongues? I struggle with pornography and sexual fantasy. What can I do? I’ve been a worship leader for many years, but I’m frustrated with my church. How can we keep our worship organic and meaningful?

Why did Jesus have to die?

Should we only listen to Christian music? Who did Adam and Eve’s children marry? Do we know exactly when Jesus was crucified? Why did He have to die? Is the Old Testament still important today? Is the gift of tongues for every believer?

“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 […]

Is “speaking mysteries” to God a good thing? No!

Are we guaranteed physical healing because of the cross? How can we share the gospel as an “elevator pitch”? 1 Corinthians 14 contains two challenging verses (v.2 and v.4). How do you explain those if there is no private prayer language? Should I expect to hear the gospel regularly in church? Why do you think […]

If we love God, won’t we naturally keep the Ten Commandments? Are there examples where the Holy Spirit is given without the gift of tongues being present? Why were the Jews prohibited from eating certain foods? Why did Daniel not eat the same food and drink as the king? When we die, do we go […]

Why did Jesus answer Pilate’s questions but not Herod’s? If we were spiritually dead, then what part of us died at salvation? If it died, then how are we alive now? Do we have a human spirit that is distinct from God’s Spirit? My pastor said tongues is not for today because of 1 Corinthians […]

How do we navigate the world of movies with so many containing scenes of sex, drugs, and other sinful behavior? Why don’t we cast out demons from Christians? What about deliverance ministries? A pastor recently taught that you must have the gift of tongues to be saved. Is this true? How often do we need […]

How do I take every thought captive? Why does the New Testament talk about “religion” in a positive and negative light? The churches I’ve attended make me feel inferior for not speaking in tongues. What should I do?

04.23.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

Why does Romans 6 say that Jesus died to sin “once for all”? I’ve been diagnosed with cancer, and my pastor has given me books on guaranteed healing from God. Now, I feel like it’s my fault that I’m not healed. Is that true? Is there any difference between the Holy Spirit and the Holy […]

03.19.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

My friend is saying that we can lose our salvation if we don’t keep the faith. Is that true? Is demonic possession still a thing today? What about deliverance ministries? Can you help me understand Mark 16 and Acts 10 in regard to “new tongues”? Why is Paul seemingly so harsh with a churchgoer in […]

02.12.2023 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

Is Jesus’ role to help us keep the Law once we’re saved? What is God’s perspective on natural disasters? I’m teaching a Bible study and some have left saying God is leading them away from the group. What should I do? Is there a difference between Heaven and Paradise? I struggle with legalistic, condemning thoughts. […]

11.06.2022 – The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

Why did Paul call himself a “chief of sinners”? How do the dead in Christ rise first (1 Thessalonians 4) if those who died are already with Jesus? Is the gift of tongues a necessary proof of salvation? Does God strike us with difficulty to get our attention? What are your thoughts on church structure, […]
