Can true believers still struggle with fear? How do God's love and God's grace relate to each other? Why does everyone seem to agree about love but then divide over grace? Is the teaching about abiding in John 15 really about losing salvation? Why does Romans say the gifts and the calling of God are "without repentance"? This gospel is so incredible! I just want my friends to get it, and it's frustrating when they don't!

1. Read verse 7 and react to this statement: Love is your spiritual DNA now.
2. Read verse 10. How do God's love and Jesus as propitiation relate to each other?
3. Read verses 13 and 15. How do these help us understanding "abiding" with clarity?
4. Read verses 17-18. What does God's love mean for judgment and punishment?
5. Read verse 19. Should we be producers or receivers? Explain.
6. Read verses 11 and 21. How do we interpret "ought" and "should" in light of grace?
7. What was your biggest takeaway from this message on God's love for you?

I'm so grateful for God's grace! What does it mean to be a "doer of the word"? Why did a man sacrifice his own daughter in Judges 11? Is Jesus the Father?

Do we ever need a fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit? What does "Jacob I loved, Esau I hated" mean in Romans 9? What about the hardening of Pharaoh's heart? And aren't these evidence of God pre-selecting individuals for salvation? How bold or careful should we be in sharing our faith with our children as they grow up?

What is baptism in the Holy Spirit? When does it happen? Are we supposed to examine our recent sins before we take communion? And why does Paul say to "test yourselves" in 2 Corinthians 13? Finally, what about Jesus saying to get right with others before you go to the altar?

I'm struggling with the challenge of trying to do God's will. I want to walk in obedience, pray about everything, and try not to get ahead of God. So many people think you can walk away from Christ and they use 1 Timothy 4, and 2 Peter 2, and Hebrew 6&10 to argue their case. What do you say about all of those?

I felt sick while watching a movie scene, so I walked out. What was that exactly? Grieving or quenching the Spirit? Or was it my own spirit provoked within me? Or my conscience? And what if I had remained in the theater? Would my ministry effectiveness be blocked until I confess it? Does a wall build up between us and God when we sin? What are your thoughts on the spiritual disciplines?

How do we walk by faith and not by feelings? Aaron made an excuse for his sin, and God didn't punish Him? How can I know that God's gospel promises are for me individually? What do you think of Billy Graham? Is the Bible on audio a good approach to learning more? How do we walk by the Spirit consistently? What tools do we need? My wife and mother passed away on the same day a year ago. I can't help but think sometimes that it was God trying to tell me something; and it's just a lot to grieve all at once.
