I have become very confused lately over whether or not there really will be a pre-tribulation rapture. Many if not all “post-trib rapture” sites state that since Jesus didn’t teach it, it’s therefore not so. Can you please explain?

Why do some Christians turn away from sinful behavior and clean up their act, or try to, while other Christians think it’s okay to continue sinning because they are already saved? I hope you can shed some light on this matter for me.

I know the word of God tells us not to be afraid and to not worry, but how do I and all other Christians not worry about the salvation of those we love since they have a free will to reject the Lord. This is the one area I just don’t know how to handle. So many family and friends don’t believe in God, and God won’t make anyone love him, so how do we not worry about them? Many people quote Acts 16:31 stating to “believe on Jesus and we shall be saved and thy house” as guaranteeing the salvation of our loved ones, but I don’t agree with that interpretation. I don’t believe there is a guarantee that our loved ones will be saved (accept the Lord), just that the Lord will pursue them as we pray fro them. So, how do I not worry?

What is your take on ISIS and the speed in which it is gaining control of Iraq? As always, your comments and wisdom are truly appreciated.

A friend of mine describes herself as a “born again, Spirit filled, Torah observant, believer in Yeshua (Jesus).” Have you ever heard of this? I can’t help being intrigued, because I have such love and admiration for the Jewish people. Clearly my old friend believes in Jesus. But seems that anyone observing the Torah couldn’t possibly embrace grace and forgiveness through faith. I’m so confused… can you please help me unravel this?

Do you think the Church will be here if America does not repent of her sins, or will be taken out of the way. There are many of us who pray our leaders will repent of the lawlessness they are forcing on the people. But it seems to be getting worse. I would appreciate your thoughts on this subject.

Since we will have access to Earth from the New Jerusalem during the Millennium, how do you think we will handle the world getting more sin-filled as time passes? Do you think maybe we just won’t visit the Earth as much? It will have to be a very stressing time for us. Will there be any danger of us becoming like them?

I know you stay very busy with the ministry and may God bless you for it! Can you tell me if there is any verse in the Bible which says something to the effect of “God takes the righteous away early to spare them from evil”? It seems that I remember reading something along these lines at one time, though I can’t remember if it was biblical or if it was merely someone’s opinion.

I have family members and beloved friends who aren’t saved yet. I can’t stop thinking of the possibility that maybe they will remain unsaved and face this horrific eternity. This very real possibility is an unbearable thought to me. I know how very important it is to pray for them,and share the “good news”, but in the end it’s up to them. No matter how much I talk to them or pray for them, I can’t force the good outcome, can I? Even God can’t force them to make the right choice concerning their eternity. How can a believer handle this issue the right way?

I have had some news items come to my attention from Christian sources that say world food shortages are beginning to happen and that we as Christians should be getting prepared. It has been my belief up to now that the severity in food shortage and other products would most likely happen after the Rapture. I can now see where things may get pretty tight as this is happening right now. My question is- Do you believe there are going to be very serious food shortages and other kinds of extreme hardships here in the U.S. before the Rapture happens? And if so, other than tightening our finances what else can we be doing?
