The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

How do you confront an unbelieving friend involved in habitual sin? I've been hunting for a job for a long time. What should I do? My friends reject my explanation of 1 John 1:9. Is there a way that I can explain it better?

I was arrested and now nobody at my church will talk to me. I've lost my family, my friends, and everything! What can I do? I had a long-term affair, and now I struggle with the memories of it. What can I do?

Why does the deity of Christ matter so much? How does union with Christ change our whole perspective? Can you talk about grace for salvation and grace after salvation? What does it mean to be complete in Christ? What is the gift of tongues? Are there two types of tongues? 

Did Jesus Really Give You His Glory? Discussion Questions: Read John 16:13-14. Whom is the Holy Spirit hearing from? About what? Why is this important? Read John 16:15. What are the 'all things" the Holy Spirit is disclosing to you? Read John 17:20. How do we know this prayer is not just for Jesus' disciples? Read John 17:21. What does it mean to you to be "one"? And to be "in Us"? How does this t...

Why does the deity of Christ matter so much? How does union with Christ change our whole perspective? Can you talk about grace for salvation and grace after salvation? What does it mean to be complete in Christ? What is the gift of tongues? Are there two types of tongues?

Do the blessings and curses in Numbers 24 apply to us today? Is the Covid vaccine the Mark of the Beast? I've been talking to Jehovah's Witnesses, and now I'm confused. My best friend is trying to convince me to become Catholic.

How can we be "faithless" (2 Timothy 2:13) and still be saved? Is "once saved, always saved" actually true? Isn't salvation a contract? Do we have to keep up our end? Or are we really safe no matter what?

Will there be a third temple ushering in the end times? I pray all the time, trying to give God my anxiety, but I still feel stressed. Am I not trusting Him? Why didn't Adam just ask God to forgive him? Who was Melchizedek? Why is he important today?

Which of your books is best as an introduction to the message of grace? So many people love to debate theology, but how should I approach people with this message? What should we say to those who complain that we only talk about grace? Would you share your thoughts on being complete in Christ?

I was saved in 1984, but didn't hear about living under God's grace until the last six months. How did I get this far? I constantly feel like I need to love God more. And I wonder if my love for Him is "sincere" (Ephesians 6:24)! I was saved at a young age and sometimes doubt it was genuine. Maybe I only did it out of fear?

What does Jesus say about the Holy Spirit in John 14? I love this ministry! What is the best focus for any church or ministry? Are women everywhere really supposed to remain silent in church? Where do we see "identity in Christ" clearly taught in the New Testament?

Discussion Questions: Read John 14:16. How does this verse speak to eternal security? Read John 14:17. What's the difference between "with" and "in" here? Why does this matter so much? Read John 14:19. What does it mean to "see" Jesus here? How does this verse also speak to eternal security and assurance of salvation? Read John 15:2. Why does "lift up" seem to make more sense here? Read John 15:4....

Should we petition God in the courts of heaven? I've heard that, but I don't know what it means! We visited a church, and the pastor said we can be 98% sure of our salvation! What is Molinism? Is it somewhere between Calvinism and Arminianism? What are your thoughts on it?

Is Revelation 3:10 proof of a pre-tribulation rapture? I'm trying to seek God in everything and want to make sound decisions, especially about my future wife. But I'm not sure if I'm being deceived at times by the enemy. Can you help me with discernment?

What's the difference between faith and belief? Can we grow or mature in faith? How? I've learned about grace recently and have felt guilty looking outside my denomination. My kids are going to notice something different in me. Should I be honest and straightforward with them? 

My Sunday school teacher disagreed with me about forgiveness and reported me to the pastor. Then he addressed it in his sermon in front of everyone! We're studying 1 John in our men's group, but most of the questions are about self-examination and self-improvement. Can you make sense of that? I'm a newer Christian, and I believe we live under grace. What should I expect the fruit-bearing to look l...

I've been married for 13 years, but in many ways I've been hiding. I've been afraid to be myself. Not anymore! Are we saved by surrendering everything? What about taking up your cross daily and dying to self? 

Why don't most Christians use the Hebrew names for God and Jesus? I like that you don't try to fit into a certain theological box! What is the tribulation and how long does it last? What is the gift of tongues? I was told to practice it, and now my family is upset because I don't.

Discussion Questions: 1. Read 1 Thessalonians 5:23 and 1 Corinthians 6:17. What do these verses tell us about the way God sees your whole person (spirit, soul, and body) and why is it important to stop viewing any part of yourself as inherently bad? 2. Read Romans 8:16 and 1 Corinthians 2:11. What makes your spirit different from your soul and body, and how can knowing that your spirit is joined t...

How am I supposed to be holy when I'm such a sinner? I asked my church for help and now feel rejected and discouraged. What should I do? Celebrating our new identity as holy and righteous really resonates with me!

How does living under God's grace affect the way we pray? Did the sons of Noah have their own clans and languages? I believe people operate from either truth or fear. What are your thoughts?

Why does James 1:18 say God "gave us birth by the word of truth"? And why does James write that we are a kind of "first fruits" among God's creation? My father broke my heart when I was growing up. Now I wonder about the meaning of Isaiah 61:1 and how God can heal me. My brother-in-law died last year; near the end, he began to doubt the Bible and maybe his salvation too. His concerns seemed to cen...

I'm a recent widow. I don't want to get depressed, so I'm wondering if I can start dating again? Did God predestine individuals whom He knew ahead of time would eventually believe? Or is there a simpler message in Paul's epistles when it comes to predestination?

Do we need to continually come to Jesus? What does it mean that His yoke is easy? Is God's affection for us impacted by our attitudes and actions? I may have a big career decision to make soon. I'm not sure what to do!

Are You Exhausted Doing What Jesus Never Asked? Discussion Questions: Read Ephesians 1:21–22 and Colossians 3:4. What is the difference between trying to continually "put Christ first" and recognizing that Christ is already your life and already above all things? Read Acts 17:28 and Philippians 1:21. How do these verses challenge the idea that the Christian life is about fitting Jesus into one par...
