The Grace Message

Enter God’s kingdom like children?

September 12, 2024

Should we debate unbelievers to win them over? Why does Jesus say we enter the kingdom like little children? What is Galatianism? Is it still happening today? Where is God in the midst of my divorce and custody battle?

Update on BibleQuestions.com! Are some people given I think the Holy Spirit first in order to then believe? Do we give glory to God? Or does He give glory to us? Is the Sabbath part of the “moral law”? Should we keep it?

Did Jesus only fulfill some of the Law? Did we believers only die to some of the Law? What are the “good intentions” of those who teach Law-based living and rule-keeping? How about those who teach we can lose our salvation? My friend doesn’t want to hear me say anything about the Old Testament. Help! What is Ephesians 1 teaching us about how we are actually saved?

What do you think of “red letter Christians” who say they obey every word of Jesus? Did Moses really have a stuttering problem? What does it mean that “no created thing” can separate us from the love of God?

Ever felt like the Law was a relentless taskmaster, showcasing your every flaw? In my latest message on Romans 7:1-8, we explore Paul’s compelling analogy that challenges conventional wisdom on how to fight temptation. It’s not about a process of dying to sin—it’s about realizing you’re already free from its grip! You’ll discover how the Law, while a perfect standard, can actually enhance sin’s power when you’re under it. But here’s the kicker: Paul reveals a radical solution to immorality that might just surprise you. Ready to explore how we serve God in a brand new way? Click to watch and uncover the liberating truth that could transform your understanding of grace and freedom from sin. Discussion Questions: 1. Read verses 1-4. What’s the analogy? What’s the takeaway? 2. Read verses 5-6. What did the Law do? Why were we released? How do we serve God now? 3. Read verses 7-8. How does Paul demonstrate that he means the Ten Commandments here? What is his solution to immorality? (Hint: See the end of verse 8 and discuss.) 4. Read verses 9-11. How are these verses about the Law’s effects and not about some “process” of Paul dying and sin becoming alive? (Note: Paul was already dead and sin was already alive.) 5. Read verses 12-13 and react to this statement: The Law is good, but put me under it, and watch sin be showcased as utterly sinful! 6. Reflection: Do you think this passage is setting Paul up to talk about his struggle under the Law as an unbeliever (devout Jew) or as a believer? Why?

Does the Holy Spirit sometimes speak through us? What does that entail? Is “once saved, always saved” really true? What about being lukewarm? Isn’t there an unpardonable sin? What’s on your heart and mind lately, Andrew? How should we view the impossible demands of the Sermon on the Mount? My long-time boyfriend and I are both believers, and we are living together. What are your thoughts on sex outside of marriage?”

Some think they’re hearing from those who have died. What do you say to that? I was in the hospital for a month with cancer and experienced a lot of accusation and condemnation in my mind. Where was that coming from? My dad is pressuring me to keep the Sabbath day. Am I supposed to? How can I harness the power to heal the sick?

Sometimes, I wonder about my salvation. I did backslide a while ago. Now I wonder about my desire to read the Bible, attend church and donate money. I guess I’m just wondering why I’ve lost my motivation and how I can get it back!

Is love only a decision, not a feeling? What about when you’re dating? Is physical attraction important? Who needs to lose their life in Mark 8? Why does Jesus say this? I can’t seem to find a church where they’re truly proclaiming the depths of the Gospel. It seems like so many churches are telling believers they’re never quite good enough for God!

What is “childlike faith”? What does it look like? I want peace with God, and I wonder how I can have that relationship with God as my Father. Can you help me? What is one powerful passage of Scripture I can share with a friend who wants to learn about the message of God’s grace? *Previously aired.

Why do some people only read what appears to be half of Romans 8:1? Should I be good friends with unbelievers if they’re pulling me away from other Christians? Does Hebrew 6 mean the blood of Jesus could run out on me? I don’t understand the Old Testament story of Hosea and Gomer. Why would God ask Hosea to marry a prostitute? *Previously aired.
