Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:

1. 0:58 {Pastors Using AI?} For pastors preparing sermons: What is the proper use of AI (artificial intelligence)? What are some rules of wisdom we can apply when using AI as a helpful tool?
2. 27:23 {“Soul” in the OT/NT} How do we reconcile the Old Testament use of "soul" to mean a whole person with statements by Jesus implying that a soul is a separate entity? He seems to be contradicting what the Old Testament teaches.
3. 31:24 {Why is Open Theism Unbiblical?} I know in the past you have been against Open Theism. Why is the idea of a non-completely settled future unbiblical? I lean toward Open Theism due to God’s freedom.
4. 33:53 {Praying for Personal Blessings: Selfish?} Can you share your insight on how to get over the feeling that it’s somehow wrong to pray for personal blessings? Objectively, I know it’s not, but the feeling often creeps in, as if it’s selfish.
5. 37:47 {“Lord” in the OT vs. NT} Is the title of Lord used in the same capacity in the New Testament as it is in the Old Testament (for example, in John 13:13)?
6. 42:26 {Confessing to Others} You've recently been calling leaders out publicly. Do all Christians need to publicly confess our sins, or only leaders? Is confessing to God and repenting enough, or should we tell each other?
7. 51:36 {The Importance of Jesus’ Lineage} Why was it so important for Jesus to be born from Seth vs. Cain, Isaac vs. Ishmael, etc., since He came to save all mankind?
8. 53:49 {Should Shame Linger?} As a kid, even after apologizing, I felt my parents' shame/disappointment/anger in the room until a period of time would pass. I know my sin harms my intimacy w/God even though Romans 8:1 is true, so I can't get over the "awkward in the room" feeling when I try to pray or draw near to God after sinning. Should shame linger for a period of time?
9. 57:09 {Church Leadership: Unbiblical Demands?} A church I know has an Intellectual Property document that staff signs and it says they can't pursue personal creative projects without the leadership’s permission. Is this biblical?
10. 1:02:04 {How to Draw Near to God} How can someone draw closer to God?

I'm taking questions from the live chat... here are the rules:

I do this live stream most Fridays at 1 p.m. Pacific Time. You're welcome to join.
To ask a question, you'll need to follow these instructions:
1. Don't post your question before you see me live on camera.
2. Post questions as comments in the LIVE chat at the beginning of the stream.
3. Post your question with "Q" at the beginning so we can easily identify that you are sending it in as a question for me and not just a comment in the chat.
4. Try to be as clear as possible so I won't misunderstand the question. Keep in mind that I don't know anything about your question other than what you type in that short comment.
5. Include specific verse references when possible or applicable.
6. Only one question submitted per subscriber, per stream, please. Submitting the same question into the chat a few times is OK.
7. Please understand that we don't strictly take the first 10 questions submitted. Our team takes several factors into consideration.
8. You can also check the "Clip Search" on BibleThinker.org in advance to see if your topic of interest has already been covered in a past session. I try not to answer the same questions over and over, so you may find what you need there.

My website is searchable and all the video and audio content is free:
