"How do we hear from God and do His will?"
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
How do we hear from God? Does He speak in an audible voice? If not, how are we led by Him? What is the best way to point out theological errors to my peers without offending them or shocking them? My son says he only prayed the salvation prayer for our sakes, his parents. He believes the gospel today, but we wonder if he needs to pray to be saved again?

“My uncle felt fire in his heart!”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
What do you think about the darkened sun in Matthew 24? Metaphorical or actual? What are your thoughts on preterism? My uncle said he experienced fire when he was saved. Is that something we should expect in a true conversion? How can I finally get some peace in my struggle with lust?

“Thousand-year reign and seven-year tribulation?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
Does the man of lawlessness show up before the great tribulation and the return of Christ? What does it mean to “obey the gospel”? My husband has cheated on me multiple times and has been involved in drugs. Now, he’s gone all the time, and I don’t know where he is. What are my options? How can we best understand the thousand-year reign and the seven-year tribulation? Doesn’t Matthew 24 say some will be taken and some will be left behind? What is persecution in the Bible? How does that fit with Christians who hurt other believers?

The Grand Finale: Christ’s One and Only Coming
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
Did Jesus forget to mention a secret rapture? Some say Jesus is coming back twice—once quietly for the church, then later with full fanfare for the world. Sounds cinematic… but where exactly is that first “secret” return in the Bible? In this message, “The Grand Finale: Christ’s One and Only Coming,” we’re putting the return of Jesus into the spotlight. As we’ll see, He describes a highly visible return that can’t be missed. No hush-hush event with vanishing Christians and confused unbelievers wondering, “Where did everybody go?” We’ll unpack the real story, straight...

“I think the Spirit can leave me…”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
What is water baptism all about? Should we sprinkle or immerse? How do you overcome lust? What are the “spiritual blessings” that we get at salvation? Does God have to give us a new heart before we can be saved? Does that leave some with no opportunity to hear and believe?

“When do we start reigning with Christ?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
What is the thousand-year reign? What will we do? My friend says she’s a believer, but she consults mediums, and now her young grandson is getting involved. What can I do? My daughter is upset that we didn’t sell her our house. We are afraid of losing her. How can we respond?

“Better to marry than burn?”
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
Should I marry a guy who doesn’t share my beliefs? Is water baptism necessary for salvation? Why does Paul say, “It’s better to marry than to burn”? How do you know if you’re burning with passion?
info_outlineToo Good to Be True… or So Good It Has to Be God?
What if everything you thought you had to do for God was already done by Him? In Part 3 of our “Grace Under Fire” series, we tackle the tough questions that religion dodges and grace answers boldly. Can you lose your salvation? Does forgiveness mean repentance doesn’t matter? Should every believer speak in tongues? What does it really mean to be led by the Spirit?
Let’s face it—some of this stuff ruffles feathers. It challenges long-held assumptions, makes legalism squirm, and rewrites the narrative on how we relate to God. But the truth is stunning: You’re not chasing a feeling or trying to get closer. You’re already in—fully, completely, forever.
Ready to ditch the guilt and breathe easy in Christ? Press play and discover the shocking simplicity of the Gospel—and why there’s no need to shop for more of Jesus.
Discussion Questions:
- So I can’t lose my salvation? What about people who walk away?
- If I’m totally forgiven, does repentance not matter?
- Are you saying God’s discipline has nothing to do with punishment?
- Does being “led by the Spirit” mean we should wait for a feeling?
- Should every believer speak in tongues? Is it a sign of salvation or maturity?
- If we’re under the New Covenant, why even read the Old Testament?
- Why would the New Testament give so many instructions if it’s not about rules?
- Is this new covenant focus on God’s grace just a “feel-good theology”?
