Hurt by a Pastor? Work Out Your Salvation?
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
I’ve been so hurt by bad teaching that I don’t know how to react when I still hear it. Can you help me process the pain? Is God giving me a sign that I should leave my job because it’s so frustrating at times? What does it mean to “work out your salvation”?

Predestined? Left Behind? Generational Curses?
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
Does God really pre-select some to believe while others can’t be saved? Why is “predestined” in Romans and Ephesians, not elsewhere? Does suicide disqualify us from heaven? Can you explain “left behind” in Matthew 24 and Luke 17? You say we should want to be left behind? Why? Do believers need to worry about generational curses?

Do You Need to Serve God More?
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
I keep hearing about the Ethiopian Bible and missing books in our canon. Is there truth to this? My pastor says we need to serve the Lord more. What does that really look like? After hearing a message on Zephaniah, I’m afraid I might be “stepping on the threshold” or disrespecting God and missing out on His best. Can you help?

Politics, Predestination, and the Church

My pastor goes on long, political rants and often seems distracted from the gospel. What should I do? What is the truth about the doctrine of election? Did Jesus die for everyone? What about Calvinism and Arminianism? Did God predestine some to believe while others have no chance?
