About this episode
Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference: 1. 1:48 {Do All Christians Have the Gift of Tongues?} Do Christians all have access to a “private prayer language” (speaking in tongues) according to Scripture? 2. 11:31 {A Judgment for Widows?} What is the judgment put on widows in 1 Timothy 5:12, and how do we know we can change course without judgment? Does it apply to keeping an unchanging devotion time with God? My goals can get legalistic. 3. 22:05 {Slaves or Brothers?} Why in Scripture are we told we are the slaves of Christ, as well as the brothers of Christ? 4. 24:57 {Shame and Pride Related?} Is the feeling of shame the byproduct of pride? 5. 28:07 {Permissible Doubts vs. Double-mindedness} Can you explain the difference between the man in Mark 9:24 and the double-minded man talked about in James 1:5-8? I find myself relating to the former a lot, but I also fear being double-minded. 6. 37:36 {Choosing a Denomination: Important?} Do you think it's important to choose a denomination? I have people pressuring me to choose one, but I don't feel ready to do that (I'm new) and I’m wondering if it's important at all. 7. 42:52 {Is Progressive Sanctification Biblical?} While I know sanctification is real and biblical, if we are dead to sin after salvation as mentioned in Romans 7, why do we need progressive sanctification? 8. 55:34 {Witnessing to an LGBTQ+ Family Member} My aunt is gay but claims to be a Christian. I have never talked with her about this, but I feel I am doing her a disservice by not lovingly sharing the truth with her. How can I go about this? 9. 1:00:37 {Tourism or Idolatry?} I’m planning a trip to Japan and would like to visit some of the shrines for the tourism aspect, but I don’t want to sin against God or put my family at risk of demonic exposure. Is this acceptable? 10. 1:07:01 {Believing & Receiving Biblically} How do I pray for something and believe I’ve received it (Mark 11:24) such as healing or peace, if I don't know how God is using the illness or anxiety in my life or someone else's life? A serious study of the best name-it-and-claim-it verse: Click Here I have the following study for the passage in Romans 7 that was asked about today: Click Here 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.
