This week's questions:
0:00 Greeting & Introduction!
3:38 Lead question
22:30 In your opinion, do you think some things weren’t reformed enough? And, or — some things were over corrected? (Over Reformed, things that should be modified a bit).
26:03 ​​How about George Whitefield, Luther believed salvation was through his works until the revelation of God.
28:09 Should Christians celebrate Halloween?
31:35 ​​How do I explain to my new converted Christian friends that we do not participate in Halloween?
​​32:42 As a believer, what things from our lives should be submitted to our pastor? Please suggest some articles or books about submission to pastors?
38:06 is it a pastor’s responsibility to pray for a member of his congregation if it’s a married woman? I was about to ask my pastor for prayer, until I heard another Calvary Chapel pastor say that it’s not a pastor's responsibility, but her husband’s. I know a pastor shouldn’t counsel a married woman alone, but prayer? It broke my heart thinking I can’t go to my pastor. Have you heard this rule before?
40:22 In 1 Samuel 28:15, did the witch at Endor actually bring up the spirit of Samuel from the land of the dead?
42:47 ​​According to Revelation 20:5 the dead will arise. Does that mean the billions who passed on thousands years ago will arise on this earth and live among us for a thousand years?
45:16 What is the biblical response to declaring, and declaring praying? I was in false teaching for over 20 years and we used to declare and decree when we were praying.
48:48 ​​Hi Pastor, I’m learning about total depravity. Can people respond to God’s salvation on their own, or do they need God’s grace? If so, does God give this grace to everyone or only to the elect?
52:15 Jesus is God and God is so holy, how was He able to be around sinners, walking and eating with them?
54:02 Matthew 22:11-14 - Who is the man who made it to the wedding feast (heaven) and wasn’t dressed correctly and was cast out (to hell)?
57:17 I've read that having a picture of Jesus on my wall is against the 2nd Commandment. The picture isn't worshipped but is a reminder of my relationship with Jesus. Is that okay?
57:48 ​​It it a sin for believers to play video games that promote/glorify sinful behavior? I.E. stealing, murder, etc.
59:30 Why are there so many kinds of baptist, what do baptists say about slavery in history?
1:00:52 A question about a pastor choosing sides
1:03:51 ​​Regarding verse 20:9 in John; what scripture is John referring to? Basically, wondering where in the OT is the resurrection of Jesus foretold.
1:05:36 ​​How shall i answer people who accuse me of hating women because i am against abortion?
1:06:20 ​​When I am in heaven, will I remember my loved ones who never accepted Christ and are therefore in hell?
1:08:16 ​​What advice do you have for a new youth pastor?
Program Ends
1:10:31 Showing off Pastor David's Martin Luther trinkets and stories about travels to Eisenach and Luther's life.
1:16:16 ​​How should we co-exist in a congregation where there is a doctrinal difference in view, from some who wrongly accuse repentant (re)married couples in the Lord to be living in sin?
