I’ve been told we need to confront other people about their struggles, or their blood is on our hands. Is this true? Is tithing for New Testament believers? How do you prove to Jehovah’s Witnesses that Jesus is God? Do humans really have free will? We make choices everyday, but aren’t we always slaves of something?

Why does the New Testament talk about harvest and reward? Does some of it refer to now? I was promoted in my job, but now I feel accused like I love it too much. How can I move forward, simply giving thanks and enjoying it? Am I gaining the whole world and losing my soul (Mark 8:36)?

Why don’t Christians follow the Law? What does “leaders who will give an account” mean in Hebrews 13? When is the Sabbath today? When should we gather to worship?

The once-for-all forgiveness message is powerful! I’m blown away by God’s grace as seen in Hebrews. I’m a new believer. How can you hear God’s voice? Do I need to prepare myself?

The resurrection holds a profound significance for each of us, and it is an event that brings hope and transformation to our lives. In this final part of our “Two Acts of God” series, we explore ten incredible reasons to be excited about Jesus rising from the dead. We’ll discover that the resurrection means our faith is not in vain and that we can rest assured that our salvation is permanent. We’ll also see how the resurrection (not just the cross!) is the source of a good conscience. Check out this message to deepen your understanding of Christ’s resurrection and celebrate the very core of our Christian faith! Discussion Questions: 1. In your own words, what does the resurrection mean to you? 2. Why is our faith “worthless” if Christ has not been raised? (see 1 Corinthians 15:17) 3. React to this statement: I will be saved as long as Jesus lives. (see Hebrews 7:25) 4. React to this statement: I have an imparted-life righteousness. (see Galatians 3:21) 5. Why do you think Peter mentions the resurrection (not the cross) as the source of a good conscience? (see 1 Peter 3:21) 6. Of all the benefits of the resurrection, which impacts you the most? Why?

Why is the resurrection of Christ so important? What is the meaning of the Sabbath? Did it exist before the Law? What "form of godliness" that "denies the power" is Paul talking about in 2 Timothy 3? How is it "three days and three nights" if Jesus was crucified on Friday and resurrected on Sunday? When exactly is the tribulation? How long does it last? If our bodies are holy and acceptable, then why do we need new bodies? Will some believers be "left behind" upon the return of Christ? Where is repentance in this gospel you preach?

Why do we have to wait a thousand years for God to continue with His plan? Does the Bible support the concept of the Trinity? Why did the Israelites have to look at a bronze serpent to be healed? Should we be concerned with having more faith? What about a Christian who wants to end their life?
April 5, 2024
Should we only listen to Christian music? Who did Adam and Eve’s children marry? Do we know exactly when Jesus was crucified? Why did He have to die? Is the Old Testament still important today? Is the gift of tongues for every believer?
April 4, 2024
What is the difference between repentance and asking for forgiveness? Do we need to do these daily? Why did Jesus say to “take up your cross”? What does Romans 8:13 mean when it says “if you are living according to the flesh, you must die”?
April 3, 2024
Are there two different Gospels? Why did Paul warn Timothy about people who have a form of godliness with no power to it? Is a person automatically sanctified if their spouse is a believer? I have a friend who is living with her boyfriend. Should I consider “not even eating with such a person”? What did Paul mean by that?
