Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:

1. 0:23 {Is God Ignoring Your Prayers?} If prayer is effective, why do so many prayers seem to go unanswered, especially in desperate situations?
2. 32:12 {Children/Procreation on the New Earth?} How are there children in the Eternal Kingdom on Earth (Isaiah 11:6-9)? Any child resurrected would mature during the Millennium, right? Does this mean there could be procreation on the New Earth?
3. 39:44 {Having our Roots Deep in Christ} I recently read Mark 4 (the Parable of the Sower) and was convicted about not having my roots deep enough in Christ. What are some practical ways of achieving this?
4. 47:05 {Jesus’ Deity in Scripture} Where does the Bible teach that the deity of Jesus is a salvation/damnation issue? For example, in Athens (Acts 17), it seems weird that Paul didn't explicitly teach this. John 8, perhaps?
5. 57:52 {When Parents Oppose Church Attendance} My parents are Mormon. I'm an 18 year-old Christian. They don't want me to go to a Christian church. How do I confront them or ask them if I can go back? Any advice would be great.
6. 1:02:49 {“God Bless You” to Non-Believers?} Is it appropriate to say to a non-believer, “May God bless you,” e.g., in a greeting card or in a new endeavor? It could be perceived as “May God give you good stuff.”
7. 1:06:28 {Unequally Yoked Wedding Attendance?} Considering 2 Corinthians 6:14-16, is it OK to go to a wedding when you know the couple is unequally yoked?
8. 1:14:54 {Disciples Knew they Had the Spirit?} In Acts 19:2, Paul asks the disciples if they have received the Holy Spirt. How would they KNOW they received the Holy Spirit? Was there a type of evidence then that we don’t necessarily see today?
9. 1:22:05 {Evangelism for the Ineloquent} Everyone seems to have their way of sharing the Gospel: street-preaching, pastoring, etc. How do I know how God has called me to share the Gospel? I'm not good socially, but I want to reach people.
10. 1:27:03 {Secular Songs During Worship?} What are your thoughts on Churches playing a secular song before worship? They’ve defended this practice with 1 Corinthians 9.

The Hebrews series has begun! CLICK HERE for the first in our study through the book of Hebrews.

I do this live stream most Fridays at 1 p.m. Pacific Time. You're welcome to join.

To ask a question, you'll need to follow these instructions:
1. Don't post your question before you see me live on camera.
2. Post questions as comments on the LIVE chat at the beginning of the stream.
3. Post your question with "Q" at the beginning so we can easily identify that you are sending it in as a question and not just a comment in the chat.
4. Try to be as clear as possible so I won't misunderstand the question. Keep in mind that I don't know anything about your question other than what you type in that short comment.
5. Include specific verse references when possible or applicable.

If you can understand the book of Hebrews, you'll understand most of the Bible.
Hebrews is the key to the Old Testament and shows us how to see Jesus in all of the Scriptures. I'll be doing an overview of the entire book today but moving slowly through Hebrews in subsequent videos in this series. This is just the beginning of a new verse-by-verse study through the book of Hebrews. I'll cover Christology, bibliology, soteriology, apologetics, cults, Hebrew Roots, and so much more. We'll go deep into complex topics, but in a way that's meant to be accessible for normal people.

How often will I livestream this series?
Unlike series in the past, I won't have a particular live stream schedule for this. It won't be every week but, whenever I do make a new teaching in this series, I will try to do it on Mondays at 1 p.m. Pacific Time to have some degree of consistency.

Today's Time Stamps:

1. 0:33 {The Changing Morality of the Bible?} Why does God seem more wrathful in the Old Testament and more forgiving and loving in the New Testament? Does the Bible have changing morals?
2. 33:29 {Balancing our Time Wisely} How can we find a healthy balance between time with God and entertainment, like reading non-Christian books?
3. 37:34 {Burned Works = Unsaved Soul?} Regarding 1 Corinthians 3:15, how can someone be saved if their work is burned up? Wouldn’t the frailty of their work suggest that their faith wasn’t true in the first place?
4. 46:57 {The Point of the New Covenant} What’s the point of the New Covenant when salvation has always been through faith?
5. 54:53 {Who is Asherah?} Who is Asherah? I saw a video that claims she’s God’s forbidden wife. Who is she, from a biblical perspective?
6. 1:00:21 {How Much Detail do we Confess?} When we, as Christians, confess our sins to God, how detailed should we be? Two verses that come to my mind are Psalm 139:23-24.
7. 1:05:28 {When & How Much to Give to Others?} My wife’s nephew is transgender, is here illegally (USA), and recently got married to a man. He asked my wife if she could help pay for his immigration paperwork. Am I wrong for saying no?
8. 1:12:43 {Be Quiet & MYOB?} In 1 Thessalonians 4:11 we are told to be quiet and mind our own business. How does that play out in a time where there is so much wrong in the world and in the Church? How are you doing it? You are the best!
9. 1:26:33 {Strengthening our “Study Muscles”} What are some ways to make reading the Bible easier? I’m not saying I want the Scriptures diluted or anything, but I’m not a very good reader and I just end up getting frustrated and quitting.
10. 1:31:33 {Was Jesus Silent?} In Mark and Matthew, Jesus remains silent which amazes Pilate, but in John, He delivers explanations. What are your thoughts on this subject, and how would you handle it when presented?

Bonus Q for Fun! 1:34:28 Why do you and so many other pastors like the LOTR so much?
