The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

Discussion Questions: React to this statement: Jesus wants His joy to be made full in you. How are you “not of the world”? How are you kept from the evil one? What does “sanctify” mean? How are we sanctified? React to this statement: You are in the Trinity. What does it mean to you that Jesus has given you His glory? React to this statement: The Father loves you just as He loves Jesus. React to th...

Discussion Questions: Read Matthew 7:1-5. What is the main point? How does it parallel Romans 2:17-24? Read Matthew 7:6. Describe a time you tried to share the truth with someone who didn’t want to hear it. What did you learn from that experience? And from this Scripture? Read Matthew 7:7-11. How is this evangelistic? How does it point to the goodness of God? Read Matthew 7:12. This is commonly re...

Discussion Questions: Read Matthew 6:1-4. Why does Jesus tell them to hide their giving to the poor? Read Matthew 6:5-8. Why does Jesus say to hide their praying? How have we today engaged in “meaningless repetition” with prayer? Read Matthew 6:9-11. How do you think the Jews interpreted “kingdom” and “daily bread” when they heard it? How might we view this passage differently today? Read Matthew...

Why is my church teaching that it’s wrong to play musical instruments during the service? Where do they see that in the Bible? Why does Jesus reject people in Matthew 7 for their “lawlessness” if we are not under the Law? Is there a gift of wisdom and knowledge? If so, what does that look like? And what about tongues and the interpretation of tongues?

What is Luke 6:38 really saying about giving and receiving from God? How can we respond to the Eastern Orthodox Church who claims to be the one and only original church today? What is freedom in Christ? What kind of “freedom” are we really talking about? Romans 14 tells us not to judge other people and references the final judgment. What is the reasoning there?

I’ve seen people give away money online to others, and I wonder if I should do the same. Is that what Paul meant about a cheerful giver? I’ve lost my two sons, and now I’m afraid I may lose my daughter to drug abuse. What should I do? I’m starting to see how I can best help those who are saved but confused! I’m wanting to encourage a man who was once in prison for sexual sin, yet I’m repulsed by w...

Was the sin of Adam and Eve passed down to everyone? What can we say to Muslims who emphasize that Ishmael was born before Isaac? How do the Jews obey the Law if they are not offering sacrifices any longer? Why didn’t Jesus appear to more people after His resurrection? Plenty of people could say “Jesus is Lord” and not really have the Holy Spirit, so how does 1 Corinthians 12:3 make sense? What if...

Discussion Questions: Why does Jesus emphasize that not one command in the Law can be ignored? What does this mean for those who single out the Ten Commandments today? React to this statement: Anger equals murder. Looking with lust equals adultery. Why would Jesus teach these things? How do verses 23-24 further solidify that His audience is the Jews under the Law? React to this statement: Tear out...

How can I overcome sexual temptation and have a healthy marriage? My wife and I have had many disputes, some ending in verbal and physical abuse. We are now living separately and need counseling. I’m struggling with how to respond when she seems embittered toward me. Can you help?

My dad passed away last Fall and was not a believer. I get very depressed about where he might be. Can you help? Can a genuine believer fall into habitual sin? I grew up in a very legalistic environment, and I think that just made me want to sin more.
