The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
How should we view those who say they’re saved yet keep on sinning? And what if they end up in jail or prison? Why does the Lord‘s Prayer say “lead us not into temptation”? Why does Jesus talk about getting a return that’s a hundredfold or sixtyfold or thirtyfold? What’s He talking about?

The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley
Do I have to learn every deception of the enemy to be victorious? I know God feels emotions, but what does that mean for how He treats us? How could Jesus be truly tempted if He is God?
