Why did God want to create Man?
July 15, 2010
Why did God want or need a relationship in the first place? I understand that God is all powerful, knowledgeable, and any other attributes you could assign to Him, so why did He need man? He spent endless "time" existing before man. Why create us now?
God’s will vs. Man’s will?

Is speaking in tongues Biblical? (Updated)

Do Christians need to continue asking for forgiveness?
November 27, 2009
If we accept Christ into our lives, our sins are forgiven (past, present and future). Therefore, why are we told to pray for forgiveness for our sins? If a believer asks God to forgive his sins over and over again, isn't that showing a lack of faith in God's promises, since he would be asking Him for something God has already given?
Jesus in the Old Testament?
August 02, 2009

Why did Creation take so “long?”
July 08, 2009
You caught my attention in your Revelation study when you asked why God took “so long” to create the world, especially your comment, “The God I worship could have created everything in an instant." I like that, but now I gotta know why He took so long!!
Did the minsitry of the Holy Spirit change in the NT?
July 08, 2009
You recently taught that the Holy Spirit was not given to men until Pentecost, but I know of several earlier times in scripture where the Holy Spirit was given to specific individuals (e.g., John the Baptist, Mary, etc.). Is there some different meaning or essence to the Holy Spirit’s ministry prior to Pentecost as compared to after?
Does Psalm 51 teach I can lose my salvation?
July 08, 2009
