Why don’t most Christians use the Hebrew names for God and Jesus? I like that you don’t try to fit into a certain theological box! What is the tribulation and how long does it last? What is the gift of tongues? I was told to practice it, and now my family is upset because I don’t.

How am I supposed to be holy when I’m such a sinner? I asked my church for help and now feel rejected and discouraged. What should I do? Celebrating our new identity as holy and righteous really resonates with me!

Why does James 1:18 say God “gave us birth by the word of truth”? And why does James write that we are a kind of “first fruits” among God’s creation? My father broke my heart when I was growing up. Now I wonder about the meaning of Isaiah 61:1 and how God can heal me. My brother-in-law died last year; near the end, he began to doubt the Bible and maybe his salvation too. His concerns seemed to center on the word “beguiled.”

I’m a recent widow. I don’t want to get depressed, so I’m wondering if I can start dating again? Did God predestine individuals whom He knew ahead of time would eventually believe? Or is there a simpler message in Paul’s epistles when it comes to predestination?

Do we need to continually come to Jesus? What does it mean that His yoke is easy? Is God‘s affection for us impacted by our attitudes and actions? I may have a big career decision to make soon. I’m not sure what to do!

What can I do if I never feel like I measure up? If I feel like I’m always failing? How can the message of God‘s grace help me? What role do the 10 Commandments play in my life? What are your thoughts on evangelism? I often get discouraged when people shun me because of my faith. What is Peter referring to when he says a dog returns to its own vomit and a pig to the mud? Is that about loss of salvation? How does God treat us in the midst of a struggle with lust? Now I can’t help but share the truth of God‘s grace! I’m excited!

What are your thoughts on James 5 with regard to prayer and healing and forgiveness? Who are the two mothers in Galatians 4 and what do they represent? What was the original sin? And what does it mean for us today?

Did James and Paul disagree? Did Paul complain about James in Galatians 2?Did James write his epistle with little understanding of grace? How do we best understand faith and works in James 2? Was James talking about doing the works of the Law to be saved? Did James write a legalistic letter in Acts 15, being ignorant of salvation by faith? Did James persuade Paul to go against the gospel in Acts 21? What is antinomianism? When we opt for God‘s grace, are we respecting the Law less or respecting it even more?

Can you explain how God’s perfect love casts out fear? Someone told me I need a second baptism, a baptism of the Spirit. Am I missing something? How do we explain the punishment of those who ridiculed Elisha in 2 Kings 2?

Do we need to re-dedicate our lives to God when we fail? When we share the gospel, should we mention the new covenant? I never knew how great the gospel was until now! Am I wrong to pull out gospel truths from popular country songs in the 70s?
