Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:
1. 1:04 Can a wife or mom have a job outside of the house?
2. 4:43 Is profanity ever acceptable? E.g. “I _-ing love you, man!” (not in anger)
3. 8:21 Can you talk about the relationship between obedience and faith?
4. 9:28 What purpose does prayer serve for an all-powerful God? How do we affect anyone/anything with prayer?
5. 13:36 Why do you think God created us if He knew it would result in the fall of man and He would have to save us through such an extreme act of love?
6. 16:45 How do you know that you’re REALLY saved?
7. 20:28 What do you think about the idea that it’s the worship leader’s job to “create an atmosphere for people to encounter God”?
8. 23:15 What are your thoughts on the belief that the Church is “spiritual” Israel which seems to lead to observing Torah? Is the Body of Christ separate from Israel?
9. 24:41 If Jesus, being God, knew He would defeat death, what is the significance of His sacrifice? I understand His resurrection is a pillar of the faith, but how can Jesus being dead for only a few days ‘count’?
10. 27:16 What is meant by the phrase “sharing the Gospel”? How do we share the Gospel, and what part of the Gospel do we include?

15. 39:30 Where is the best place for teens who are new believers to start in the Bible?
16. 41:17 Is the doctrine of “soul sleep” biblical?
17. 42:47 Do you believe seminary is needed to be a minister of God’s Word?
18. 43:50 Is the Body of Christ separate from Israel?
19. 45:12 If the New Testament was implemented when Jesus died & rose again, is it fair to say that Matthew, Mark, Luke, & John should be considered part of the Old Testament, since Jesus hadn’t died yet?
20. 46:27 Does Lucifer’s fall (and ours) mean that God made a mistake? Or does it mean that He planned on sin and the fall happening?
21. 47:49 Do you have any tips for a new believer who wants to begin looking into theology and researching topics in the Bible?

25. 55:40 Why are there so many denominations and only one true God?
26. 56:54 When we die, will we go to Heaven, or are we all dead until Jesus comes back?
27. 57:19 Some Christians who claim to not believe in sinless perfectionism say if we can go without sinning for minutes or hours, we can go without sinning for days, weeks, or months. Is this biblical?
28. 58:43 Do I have to be baptized when I decide to become a Christian?
