Did Jesus’ ministry fulfill the prophecy in Jeremiah 16,16? When did David Guzik begin writing his commentary? What is a modern equivalent to sackcloth and ashes? How is my relationship with God supposed to feel? What if I’m angry at God? Can you explain the avenging of martyrs in Revelation 6,9-11? Should people in ministry use cuss words? How can I encourage young people to keep their words pure? Can you give advice on how to read the Old Testament?

God Comes as Man in the Old Testament - LIVE Q&A for June 23, 2022
On today’s Q&A, we start with a question about how the Bible describes several instances where God appears and interacts with others in a human form. What are we to make of such appearances? Could they happen today? Pastor Guzik, I received my book by your father-in-law on Fasting and Prayer. Everyone should own a copy, it's amazing! I suspect I know what you’ll say for why Jesus’ risen body was scared. Do you think our resurrected bodies will be wounded too? Ezekiel 38 talks about Gog who comes from the North of Israel. In Daniel 11 it mentions the king of the North. Are these people the same person? Are there any sins that are unforgivable according to scripture? If our bodies are a temple; does this apply to tattoos, piercings, make up, etc? What do you say about dating or marrying someone who is not a Christian? In what proportion would you allocate church budget between Building, Welfare, Utilities and Salaries? How do you explain 14-year-old Ishmael was described like a baby in Genesis 21:15? Are faith and belief synonymous, or is faith a knowledge claim? When we consider mourning sin as mentioned in the Sermon on the Mount, how should we approach this without completely pushing others away from Christ and the message? Did Cain, Abel, and Seth marry? If so, what were the names of their wives? What are great books to read or resources? Is it a sin and/or dishonoring to God, if one lies to protect a life?
Thoughts on the Rapture - Live Q&A for June 30 2022 with Pastor Bill Walden
Today's Q&A is hosted by Pastor Bill Walden, the Spanish Ministry Director for Enduring Word. Before answering the questions that came in through our live chat window, Bill looked at the topic of the Rapture. Then we looked at the following questions: Does God hate? Proverbs 6,16 How can someone break the bad habit of spending too much time on social media? What is meant by the "Word of God" in John chapter 1? Does baptism play a part in salvation? Will Damascus get destroyed before or after the rapture? What is your take on The Virgin of Guadalupe? Since we will be with Jesus forever, will we share his omnipresence? Should we support Israel on a political level, or is a spiritual support enough? When Jesus returns, will He be like His first coming in the flesh, fully God & full man? Does Satan want to replace God or work as his equal?
