Are there two returns of Christ or one? I gave my teenager some marijuana. Is that unforgivable? Does the Holy Spirit convict believers? How does He relate to us? What do you think about the celebration of All Saints Day?
*previously aired
What about people in remote locations who have never heard the gospel? And what about all those Gentiles in the Old Testament? How can believers who have died already have a resurrection body in Heaven? Or are they bodiless in Heaven or sleeping for thousands of years? What are your thoughts on James? Does he teach the Old Testament law as the means to salvation? What is the gift of tongues? Are there two kinds of tongues? What abo...
What Died When You Did?
Discussion Questions for 2 Corinthians 5-6:
- Read verse 15. What does it practically mean to no longer live for ourselves? How might this reshape our goals and motivations?
- Read verse 16. How does seeing others “not according to the flesh” change how we treat other people, even those who frustrate or anger us?
- Read verse 17. What does it mean to be a new creation? What old things have p...
Are there two returns of Christ or one? I gave my teenager some marijuana. Is that unforgivable? Does the Holy Spirit convict believers? How does He relate to us? What do you think about the celebration of All Saints Day?
Is Christ living in us just symbolic? My wife wants a divorce. What’s my next move? Should we wish evil or destruction on unbelievers?
Why am I not able to feel God when I pray? Is the analogy of solid, liquid and gas a good representation of the Trinity? Am I grieving the Spirit? Am I being attacked by the enemy? Or do I have a physical problem? What are your thoughts on my situation?
What is the “third heaven”? What does it mean that we’re already seated in heavenly places? My pastor said our character is the foundation for our lives. What are your thoughts? Please explain the Parable of the Talents. If it’s about Christians, then how could the last person end up in “outer darkness”?
Do You Realize What Treasure God Put in You?
Let’s be honest—some people’s version of Christianity doesn’t exactly draw others in. You can sense the rule-keeping and self-improvement vibe from a mile away. But that’s not the fragrance of Jesus. The real aroma of Christ isn’t found in moral checklists but in knowing His love and grace so deeply that it overflows from you naturally.
And here’s the wild part: While your outer...
I’m burning out trying to help my brother (an addict living on the street) at any cost. What can I do? My daughter watches scary movies and has skulls. I wonder if she’s still saved. What should I conclude? I’m frustrated, because our church has been studying David for two years, and it’s mostly about sin management. And when I mention grace, they tell me I need to be careful, because it’s too dangerous and people might abuse it.
Why aren’t there many sermons on being single? What does the Bible have to say about singles? What is the best definition of “grace”?
Why does 2 Timothy 2 talk about purging ourselves? How could we do that? Why do I feel bad for stealing but not for breaking the Sabbath? What is the “veil” in 2 Corinthians 4? Do we “surrender” to be saved?
What does it mean to deny yourself? To take up your cross? Why did Jesus say these things? And what do people mean when they say “we have a cross to bear”? In Luke 8, Jesus casts out demons from a man. Does that mean he was automatically saved later at Pentecost? Why or why not?
I know God allows painful things to happen to us, but what is He thinking and feeling about us in those moments? God has given me so many opportunities to express love and grace to others and to pray for them. I’m so thankful! I’m a survivor of sexual abuse, and I wonder about forgiving those who were involved. How can I? Were there people created before Adam and Eve? People tell me I’m not a real Christian, because I have separate...
Are You Living by Rules or by the Spirit?
Is too much grace dangerous? Should we only forgive others if they ask? Is that how God treats us? Do we have to confess every single sin to be forgiven by him? What about 1 John 1:9? And what should we do and when we sin?
My pastor told me that 70% of church members will be left behind at the rapture because of their ungodly living. Could this be true? I keep repenting and asking forgiveness for telling funny stories and cutting up. I can’t seem to stop, and I wonder why I’m in this cycle. Can you help? An elder at my church said I need to focus on my recent sins at the Lord’s Supper. He quoted from 1 Corinthians 11 about eating and drinking in an u...
Be strong in the Lord? What does that mean? And doesn't Paul say to glory in our weaknesses? Help me understand! Does the Holy Spirit get us and take us with Him at our last breath? How does it all work? Our church is always talking about miracles. Do they still happen today? What about the idea of guaranteed physical healing through the cross?
