The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

Why were other dead people raised at the resurrection of Jesus? Did Jesus go to Hell for three days? What is a "word of knowledge"? Why did Jesus teach them to pray: "Your will be done"? What does that mean?

What if Jesus' resurrection changes more than your afterlife? Discussion Questions: Read 1 Corinthians 15:17. How does Jesus being raised give you confidence that your sins are really forgiven? Read Hebrews 7:16. What does it mean to you that your hope is not running on "batteries" but on Jesus' indestructible life? Read John 11:25–26. Jesus is the resurrection and the life. How does this statemen...

I am afraid of failure in the workplace. How do I overcome this fear? What is the gift of tongues? How is it given? Should we all have it? Do you have to fully grasp the extent of the punishment you deserve in order to be saved?

Thank you for what you taught me about relationships. My husband passed away recently, and I'm so grateful to know the truth. Can God still hear our prayers if there is sin in our lives? Does God ever hear the prayers of an unbeliever? Am I forgiven of a sin even if I do it again? Was my repentance not legitimate? One of our church leaders has a drug addiction. I'm wondering if he should still be...

Matthew 25 contains two parables and a final judgment that all seem works-oriented. How should we interpret this chapter in light of God's grace? My friend grew up Catholic and is into meditation and enlightenment. I've been talking to him about the gospel, but I wonder what you would tell him. Do you have any thoughts for him?

Is 1 John 2:28 a warning to believers that they should fear the return of Christ? What is it like to be in the kingdom of God today? Does a Christian need to wait before they're involved in ministry? Can a believer sell their soul to the devil? I missed an opportunity to share my faith and now, I want to go back and talk to them again. What should I do?

If it's finished… why are you still trying so hard? Discussion Questions: Why do you think "the word of the cross" is foolishness to the world? How is it the power of God for us who believe? What three truths are showcased by the three Hebrews passages presented? How did God disarm the rulers and authorities? What were they armed with? What does it mean to you that you have died to the world? To i...

Did Paul take the Law with him to explain it to Gentiles? Being nice to your enemy to "heap coals on them" seems underhanded. Why would Proverbs suggest this? What "works" is Paul talking about in Romans 4? What "commands" is John referring to in his letter? What does it mean to keep His commands?

Does God give us dreams? Is it okay to have our bodies cremated? My friend says he doesn't sin anymore! How can I help someone understand the new covenant? Can you talk about the two kinds of tribulation?

My friend says the Law helps Christians live their daily lives. Is this true? Are there two kinds of sanctification? How do we grow without the Law? I have several family members who say I should convert to Catholicism. What are your thoughts?

Is life meaningless without affirmation? What does it mean to find "mercy and grace" from God (Hebrews 4)? My wife is leaving me, but we might get back together later. What are your thoughts? Tell us about that paper you wrote in college about God the Father. What happened when you read it in front of the class?

What is Lordship salvation? What if we didn't "make Jesus Lord" when we were saved? Should we avoid legalistic teachings that place emphasis on being right with God by works? Was David not ceremonially sanctified by Jesse like his brothers were? If not, then how was David qualified to be king?

What kind of power and influence does Satan really have? How do I trust God when I see hospital workers not tending to my mother the way they should? Is God still concerned with the old covenant? How simple is salvation? Do I need to feel assurance for it to be true? What was Israel chosen for specifically? How can I understand the Bible better? So far, I'm having trouble!

Here's the gospel written 700 years before Jesus… Discussion Questions: What does it mean to you that this passage was written 700 years before Christ? React to this statement: Jesus had "no stately form or majesty." React to this statement: Jesus understands my pain and my grief. Is this hard to believe? Why or why not? What is the "great exchange" described here? Why do you think the gospel divi...

Is there a chance that Paul is not talking about the Old Testament "law" in Romans (1-8)? Must our giving be to a local church or ministry? Is there freedom to work that out a different way? I've seen biblical evidence the Earth is flat. What are your thoughts? *previously aired

I'm thinking about marrying a Muslim man. What are your thoughts? Why do some of Jesus's teachings seem so harsh? My husband is seeing other women and criticizes me for respecting God more than him. I'm dying inside!

I heard Proverbs 26 is about a believer losing salvation. I've been depressed about my eating disorder and need help with this passage! What kind of battle are we really in on a daily basis? What does Ephesians 6 mean when it speaks of the armor of God?

Can you help me understand James 2:14-26? Our works might be burned up at the final judgment (1 Corinthians 3)? If we don't love Jesus enough, we might be accursed (1 Corinthians 16:22)?

I'm struggling with a gambling addiction and have tried to stop. What can I do? Why did Jesus ask the Father to forgive the people who crucified Him? A pastor of 36 years recently announced he has embraced an alternative lifestyle. I'm trying to wrap my mind around it! Who is being described in Revelation 22 as a person who subtracts or adds to prophecy? If we're totally forgiven people, why do so...

What Did Jesus Actually Finish? And Why Does It Change Everything About You? Discussion Questions: What are the two greatest events in history? Why? React to the envelope analogy.

I've been listening to "The Grace Message for five years. My family and I thank you! Why wasn't Moses allowed to go into the Promised Land? What does this show us today? And what about Abraham and Isaac? Any New Testament takeaways for us?
