Q. Given the “peak to peak” view of End Times prophecies, why is it that the Church Age is always omitted from the clear statement of prophecy? Also, given the importance of the Church in God’s scheme, why did He fail to tell mankind about it?

Q. I have a question on John 3:5, Jesus was talking about being born of water and of the Spirit. In my Tuesday night Bible study class a question came up asking what this meant. Someone said that Jesus was talking about water baptism but I don’t see that here. Am I way off? What was Jesus really saying in John 3:5?

Q. The “message” at our church last week centered around James 1:22-25 “be doers of the Word and not hearers only..”. I can’t help but think that this was a plea for a “works based faith” to help the church building and keeping our “good works” confined within the walls of the building. Of course, sprinkled within the message was “help the person in a broken down car on the side of the road, etc.” but the pastor kept coming back to “our church” and “doing the Word”.

Q. I’m going through your Revelation study and noticed this. In explaining Rev. 7:14 you say that “the great tribulation has not begun yet” but the Biblical text claims that that IS where the martyrs arriving in Heaven are from. Can you elaborate on your thoughts here?

Q. Is it possible that the one-world religion will not be Islam, but instead be atheism, or maybe more accurately, “scientism”? It seems that the ranks of believers in this world are shrinking exponentially. The global rise of atheistic China and modernizing India also lends credence to the possibility of mankind worshiping self-produced technology over any supernatural being. It’s a New Age idolatry.

Q. I’ve been reading your blog for a year and enjoy it much. I would be interested in your opinion of house churches. I have read several popular books on home churches and feel that the Holy Spirit is telling me that what I’m reading is good and true. Care to comment?

Q. I have a question I’ve wondered about for a number of years. I have been an intercessor and have always considered it a calling of the Lord to pray in intercession for others. I understood early on in my Christian walk the importance of prayer and have seen a great many of those prayers answered. To God goes the glory for those answered prayers. I seem to know things about a person when I pray for them that I had not known before and I am sure the Holy Spirit gives me what to pray at those times. Is this a calling from the Lord or a gift of the Holy Spirit or both?
