#852-9/20/2020

1. If Jesus is God, why did He seem to rebuke the rich young ruler for calling Him good?
2. What is the meaning of “strange fire” in Leviticus 10:1-2? Why was the punishment so severe?

4. Do I need to obey the ten commandments?

#851- 9/13/2020

1. How is the word generation used in Mark 8:38- Mark 9:1?
2. If the wife left to be with someone else or the husband waited until she had taken up being “with” another man, isn’t that sufficient grounds for divorce and remarriage? My wife took up with my biological brother while they both lived in my residence. According to the Old Testament it would be an abomination for me and her to get back together. So I can’t properly take her back without sinning grievously myself.
3. Can one become a Christian without the baptism of the Holy Spirit?
4. Does God give people a second chance after death?
5. Does the Bible teach the doctrine of soul sleeping after death?

2. Does the Bible allow for the theory of evolution?
3. If God doesn’t tempt us, why does He tell us to pray, “Lead us not unto temptation?”
4. My preacher recently began using the New Living Translation. I am not familiar with it. Can you tell me how accurate it is? I did not like how some of it read compared to the KJV and the NKJV.
5. My question is about First Corinthians 3:13-15? What does he mean about his work being burned but the person being saved?

Panelists: Russell Kline, Mike Peters, Haston Handley

#849- 8/30/2020

1. When my mother’s health deteriorated, we had to put her in a nursing home. I am very depressed about it. Are we abandoning her? She resents what we have done.
2. What is the purpose of confession? Doesn’t God already know what I have done? Why do I need to tell Him?
3. Was divine healing in the atonement (Isa. 53:5; 1 Peter 2:24)?
4. Aren’t the genealogies of Jesus given in Matthew and Luke contradictory?

1. Is Covid-19 one of the pestilences predicted in Matthew 24:7 prior to the second coming of Christ? Is this pandemic a sign of the Second Coming?

3. Did Jesus claim to be God?

Panelists: Russell Kline, Mike Peters, Haston Handley

#845 – 8/2/2020

1. Our preacher got the corona virus, so he preached on Facebook. However, his wife is on there with him. I don’t feel it is appropriate. She is not the preacher. Can you give me some input on this? I am grateful for any answer the Bible can give me.

3. What is meant by the phrase “remission of sins that are past” in Romans 3:25?

5. Are arranged marriages biblical?

Panelists: Bill Brandstatter, Darrell Simon, Gerald Cowan.

#844-7/26/2020

1. Will there be two resurrections?
2. If Abraham was sterile, how could he be the father of Ishmael?
3. Since baptism is left out of the last phrase in Mark 16:16, doesn’t this indicate that it is in harmony with the rest of Scripture, and that while baptism is an institution of the Lord, it is not essential for salvation?
4. Does Luke 14:26 teach us actually to hate our parents?

Panelists: Bill Brandstatter, Darrell Simon, Gerald Cowan.

4. Did the creation take place in six literal days?
5. What do you mean when you speak of restoring New Testament Christianity?
