Q. I have been a believer in Jesus Christ as my Savior and Lord since my early twenties. Off and on through out my life I have had episodes where I’ve done things and not remembered doing them. One episode was particularly bad and resulted in making trouble for me at my job. Because of it I began therapy with a psychologist who gave me a diagnosis of DDNOS. It’s not a very clear way to diagnose someone but to me it meant I have different personalities in my mind that may for short periods take over my mind and behavior. Read Post »

Q. I found it interesting in Ezekiel that temple sacrifices will once again take place during the millennial age. Since Christ died once and for all and His work is finished, why are there temple sacrifices again?

Q. My daughter was telling me about a new movie coming out very soon about a demon child. She had questions about…” Are demons real?”, “Do demons enter people’s bodies?” and “ Do exorcisms really occur?” I know that satan does have demons in the world helping him, but I am not sure how to answer her questions. I do not want to scare her. She is scared from the previews of this movie as a lot of teenagers will be. Of course, I told her she does not need to see a movie like that, but it still sparked her curiosity about demons. Can you help me with answers? Read Post »

Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth. Sing to the LORD, praise his name; proclaim his salvation day after day. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples. For great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; he is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the nations are idols, but the LORD made the heavens. Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and glory are in his sanctuary.

Q. Greetings! I recently found your website through another source and I love it. Everything you teach goes right to my heart. I do have a question.
Do you believe there could have been a pre-Adamite civilization and if you don’t would you say false teachers cling to this? I found some sites that give compelling reasons for its existence, but I have also found sites that come down hard on this teaching.
Could you please share your thoughts? Read Post »

Q. I recently attended a bible study where the teacher taught that when Christians are first saved, they are in the “outer courts” of the tabernacle and that in order to get to the Holy of Holies and be truly close to God, we must do works, completely die to self, obey Him, and also give up hobbies or interests so that we can be more available to God. I understand all of that, but it’s the part about giving up hobbies or interests that bothers me. Is there a scriptural basis for this teaching? The teacher didn’t refer to one. Thanx! Read Post »

Q. Why does God allow the enemy to inhibit, prevent, stall, interrupt, interfere with, His work on Earth. Paul mentioned that he had wanted to go somewhere but the devil had stopped him. Why does God allow this? Read Post »

Q. Do you think the tinder box in the Middle East might burn out of control from this past weekends late December news out of Israel? With a possible ground excursion on the horizon against Hamas and now with Hizbullah possibly getting involved, could we see Psalm 83/Isaiah 17 come to pass quite soon? This next year possibly with a President sympathetic to the Arab ear rather than Israel’s? Will Psalm 83/Isaiah 17 come before or after the Rapture? Or can it go either way? On the one hand if Psalm 83/Isaiah 17 did come to pass before the Rapture, does that mean we are on the fast-track to the Rapture and the Tribulation? Read Post »

Q. In the first 3 chapters of Ephesians Paul’s tone seems much different than in the last three, almost as it was two different messages that were spliced together. Can you explain this? Read Post »

Q. Re your answer on understanding Ephesians 4. So basically Paul’s just giving a warning not to act in this manner because God will disaprove of our actions. But if we do act in that way and ask for forgiveness He is just and will forgive us. Would I be correct is saying this? Read Post »
