Questions and Responses

Question: If unbelievers do not have the Holy Spirit, how do they get answers from God?

Question: Does the Bible allow for defending oneself or one's family?

Question: Given the ecumenical thinking of many evangelicals today and the acceptance of Roman Catholics as Christians, how would you answer people who say you don't need to evangelize Catholics because they are as saved as we are?

Question: I’ve spent countless hours talking to those who support biblical movies, and no matter what concerns I raise...the final word on their part is, “I hear what you’re saying, but I still feel that God can use such movies to win people to Jesus...”

Question: Have you heard of John Piper’s philosophy of “Christian Hedonism”? It is becoming more and more popular (especially among Christian youth) and I believe it to be a very dangerous teaching. Is Piper’s philosophy biblical?

Question: If a homosexual is not involved in those sinful homosexual acts but still considers himself a homosexual, will he/she go to heaven?

Question: There are many who advocate that a born-again believer in Christ can commit suicide and still be saved.... Is it possible for a saint to commit suicide?

Question: I continue to hear about the "joy of the Lord" as our strength in these challenging times...

Question: In July you said Christians should not join non-Christians in pro-life activities because they would be "unequally yoked...." Wouldn't that preclude involvement with secular schools, Scouts, 4-H [and]any activity [with] the general public?

Question: My father abused my siblings and me...for years....How do I honor this man...who has shown no evidence of repentance at all...and when I am no longer his child, by his own vow? How do I address him as “father” or “dad” ever again?
