#994- 6/11/2023

1. We have a microphone and it is not mentioned in the New Testament. So why can’t we have instruments of music in worship too?
2. What is “double imputation” and is it Scriptural?
3. I have seen some of the newer baptistries lately where only the person being baptized goes into the water. Are these scriptural? Since I can find no Biblical example of only the one going into the water? Can this lead to thoughts of one baptizing themselves?
4. Can you simplify the differences between the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit)? Specifically, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Is this the same or different?

#993- 6/4/2023

1. Why do other religious groups think there is a rapture?
2. I keep hearing people talk about our God given rights. I have yet to find them in any Bible nor found anyone to tell me where they are found. What is your answer?
3. I am a Christian and I have a question as to why the scripture of 1 Timothy 2:8 is not followed in the worship of churches of Christ. It is seemingly frowned upon to lift hands or clap in the worship service?
4. Since God never changes, why did He love and approve instruments of worship in the Old Covenant and also have instruments of music in heaven, yet disapprove of them now? Even though it is not mentioned in the New Covenant, it is commanded in the last Psalm, Psalm 150? Why do we assume it is not wanted or allowed?

1. Why was Abel’s offering accepted by God when Cain’s was rejected (Genesis 4:3-5)?
