Have the events in the book of Revelation already happened?
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
Moses talked with God face to face, yet no one has ever seen God? How do we reconcile that? Someone told me everything in the Book of Revelation has already happened! Is that true? A pastor was teaching on Jesus turning over tables in the Temple, and he said it's about God wanting to clean up our lives so we can stay in fellowship with Him. Is that what Jesus meant?

"I can't love God with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength!"
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
Why does Paul say the only thing that counts is keeping God's commands (1 Corinthians 7:19)? I haven't prayed or gone to church in months. Where is my desire? Was I not saved in the right way? I'm having trouble with loving the Lord with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Can you help me? My dad has a smoking habit. Will it keep him from going to heaven?

Perfect Love: Slamming the Door on Fear - Part 3
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
What if 1 Corinthians 13 isn’t about you trying to love better? This message reframes 1 Corinthians 13 as a revelation, not a requirement. Andrew dismantles the common “love checklist” approach and shows that the passage is not a performance review for believers but a portrait of Christ Himself. The focus shifts from self-improvement to identity—Christ as our life, our love, and our source of forgiveness. The big idea: 1 Corinthians 13 reveals who Jesus is in us, silencing fear and ending scorekeeping. Discussion Questions: How do you think most people traditionally interpret 1...

Why wait to enjoy Jesus at His return?
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
My wife wants a divorce because of our financial troubles. What are your thoughts? And when will Jesus return? I believe I’m being stalked by a cult. Can you help?

“40 flood stories? Alternative lifestyles?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
How should we view the many flood stories worldwide in so many different cultures? My friend has embraced an alternative lifestyle. He now wants to lead a Bible study teaching affirming theology. What should I do? Some say we’re forgiven positionally but still need daily forgiveness. Is this true? What about 1 John 1:9?

“I don’t read my Bible much. What does God think of me?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
Why do we hear so much preaching about health, wealth, and prosperity? How important is church attendance and reading the Bible? Which is better for kids: public school or private school? Is being “lukewarm” really about not doing enough witnessing or Bible study or church?

“Wicked heart or new heart? Which is it?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
If we really have new hearts in Christ, then why do we still continue to sin? What is the difference between agape love and phileo love?

It’s easy to worship God all day long…
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
My friend was in the military and experienced a failed mission years ago. He now suffers from PTSD and tremendous guilt. Can you offer any help to him? What does it really mean to offer your body as a “living sacrifice” to God (Romans 12:1)? And how is it worship?

“Knowing God’s will? Praying with right motives?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
A person is being consistently critical of my children. How should I approach this situation? What is the main thing God wants us to know and do in the Christian life? You inspired me to share Christ with someone! Who was Ishmael? Who were his descendants? What’s the big takeaway? What is the doctrine of Balaam that believers are warned about in Revelation 2? What are your thoughts on finding God‘s will for your life? How can I know that I’m praying (and living) with the right motives?
info_outlineIn this next installment of our “Complete in Christ” series, we explore redemption, reconciliation, and our full assurance in Christ.
We uncover the mystery Paul refers to and address false teaching and universalism. We also reflect on the practical implications of being complete in Christ and what it means to labor and strive according to God’s power at work within us.
Enjoy!
Discussion Questions for Colossians 1:21-2:6:
- Read verse 22 and react to this statement: I am reconciled to God and holy and blameless forever.
