The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

My wife won’t forgive me, and it’s been eight years! What can I do? What does Paul mean by buffeting his body and making it his slave? Is this about loss of salvation?

Does the man of lawlessness show up before the great tribulation and the return of Christ? What does it mean to “obey the gospel”? My husband has cheated on me multiple times and has been involved in drugs. Now, he’s gone all the time, and I don’t know where he is. What are my options? How can we best understand the thousand-year reign and the seven-year tribulation? Doesn’t Matthew 24 say some wi...

Did Jesus forget to mention a secret rapture? Discussion Questions: Read 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17. Paul describes one dramatic, public return of Christ with a shout, trumpet, and the resurrection of believers. Why do you think Paul emphasizes these visible signs instead of describing a secret return? Read John 5:28–29. Jesus says both “those who did good” and “those who did evil” will come out of t...

What is the thousand-year reign? What will we do? My friend says she’s a believer, but she consults mediums, and now her young grandson is getting involved. What can I do? My daughter is upset that we didn’t sell her our house. We are afraid of losing her. How can we respond?

Should I marry a guy who doesn’t share my beliefs? Is water baptism necessary for salvation? Why does Paul say, “It’s better to marry than to burn”? How do you know if you’re burning with passion?

How do I handle my niece getting married when I don’t agree with her choice? Do you do interviews on other programs? Do you really believe in “once saved, always saved”? What about people who backslide? Has the King James Version ever had errors? It seems like we’re hearing a lot of “if-then” teaching today!

What is water baptism all about? Should we sprinkle or immerse? How do you overcome lust? What are the “spiritual blessings” that we get at salvation? Does God have to give us a new heart before we can be saved? Does that leave some with no opportunity to hear and believe?

Am I allowed to play poker? What do you think of the Jewish roots movement? I’ve heard that we are grafted into Israel by keeping the Torah. What do you think of the “tulip” of Calvinism? What about Arminianism? My dad is an atheist, and keeps asking me about God, Satan, and the problem of evil in this world. What can I do? Will Jesus return once or twice? I’m taking a new job where they value div...

The Rest Is History Discussion Questions: Read Hebrews 3:18–19. Why does the author connect entering God’s rest with belief versus unbelief? How does that help us understand what “rest” really means? Read Hebrews 4:3. The passage says, “For we who have believed enter that rest.” How does this verse correct the idea that rest is some future spiritual level to reach? Read Hebrews 4:10. What does it...

Why did Jesus call some people children of the devil? Is that how we should approach every unbeliever? I believe the Lord is ready to take us out on September 23! Do we need to fear God’s anger as believers? What about His discipline? I used to walk closely with God and now I feel numb and distant. I don’t know what to do!

Am I supposed to be calling Jesus “Yeshua”?  I’ve always heard we need to move information from our heads to our hearts. Is that right? I’m filling out a job application, and I’m worried about denying Christ and accidentally supporting diversity too much. When is it okay for a Christian to get remarried?

I’ve got all kinds of symptoms and problems, and I’ve been cussing at God. Is He mad at me? What’s up with John 5:22 where the Father delegates judgment to the Son? I believe I have a special anointing from God to minister apart from any congregation or group. What should I do?

Who is to blame for the Fall of humanity? What was the first sin motivated by? I’ve been dealing with a lifetime of lust. Where am I with God? I have a religious OCD and am burdened with disturbing thoughts. Could it be demons? Either way, what do I do?

When you sin, does it give Satan a legal right to attack you? I feel like I've given the enemy twenty seats at my table, and now I have so many strongholds to get rid of in my life. Is that right? How can I fix this?

What is election (predestination)? My church won’t baptize me, because they say I’m living in sin. They say if I remarry, it will be adultery! My Bible teacher says Jesus is the Holy Spirit. Is that accurate? I wonder what God thinks of me being an introvert! *previously aired

Are You Fighting the Right Enemy? Discussion Questions: Read John 10:10. What does Jesus mean by “abundant life,” and how is it different from what the thief offers? Read 2 Corinthians 11:14. How does the enemy disguise himself as an “angel of light”? Can you think of examples in the world today? Read 2 Corinthians 10:3–5. What does it mean to take “every thought captive to the obedience of Christ...

How can we have new hearts if Colossians 3 says to “set our hearts”? Can you help me understand the Trinity? If we’re supposed to give our burdens to Christ, then how do we bear the burdens of others?

If Jesus is our mediator, does He have ongoing work to do? Is there biblical support for purgatory? My pastor rejects the idea of “accepting” or “receiving” Christ. What are your thoughts? My boyfriend and I are constantly discussing the problem of evil in this world. Why does God allow it?

Is James 2 about believers who aren’t fulfilling their purpose? I’m not allowed to see my son, and I’m not sure what to do about it. Can you help? Why did God give Israel such a small piece of property?

The renouncing in Titus 2:12 - is it a past event or something ongoing? My pastor told me that if we don’t have enough fruit, we will be burned up at the Great White Throne! My 19-year-old son is sleeping with his girlfriend. What can I do?

How do we make sense of Acts 19:6 where 12 people are speaking in tongues and prophesying? What is Romans 9 really about, with God loving Jacob and hating Esau? I’m in love with an unbeliever, and I wonder: What should I do?

Too Good to Be True… or So Good It Has to Be God? Discussion Questions: So I can’t lose my salvation? What about people who walk away? If I’m totally forgiven, does repentance not matter? Are you saying God’s discipline has nothing to do with punishment? Does being “led by the Spirit” mean we should wait for a feeling? Should every believer speak in tongues? Is it a sign of salvation or maturity?...
