  1. @ 18:10 – Concerned about the programming on Netflix you mentioned on the last podcast. Thinking of canceling my subscription- I don’t watch a lot of tv, but is it better to cancel and let Netflix know why???
  2. @ 26:27 – Why do some people lift their hands during worship?
  3. @ 31:59 – Was Moses wrong to veil his face?
  4. @ 36:43 – How did we become a Baptist Church? In what way is it different from what we were before?
  5. @ 44:14 – My previous church did a prophecy update at the end of each year. Does this church believe in Bible prophecy? If so, why no updates?
  6. @ 52:00 – If we are transformed into the image of Christ, what does that actually look like?
  7. @ 55:22 – What confuses me is that when someone dies, the pastor will generally say that he/she is now with God. However, when I read the bible, it says that you go to sleep until the coming of Christ. He will call the dead to rise up and meet Him. Can you clarify this so that I can have a better understanding.
  8. @ 1:01:26 – Pastor Garrett said that God made us exactly the way we are, knowing the way you were going to be from conception. Does that mean that God makes people gay? Does he create us sinful?
  9. @ 1:06:18 – Is fasting important and necessary?

Questions & Timestamps:

  1. @ 17:00 – Are there other instances in the Bible where “the satan” (as in Job 1 and 2) is referred to rather than the devil we know and hate? How do we differentiate between the two when we study on our own?
  2. @ 23:36 – There seems to be differences in the Gospel accounts of the resurrection. Mark says that Mary Magdalene, Mary the the mother of Jesus, and Salome found the tomb empty, with a single man (angel) inside (Mark 16:1-8). Matthew Says only the two Marys were present, it was an angel who told them about the resurrection and then Jesus Himself met them on the road (Matt. 28:1-10). Luke writes that there that there were two men inside the tomb (Luke 24:1-12). And finally, John seems to say that it was Mary Magdalene alone, and that she never saw Jesus at all, but thought his body was taken (John 20:1-18). Which are we supposed to believe? And how then are we supposed to take everything in the Bible as hard fact?
  3. @ 31:53 – What are your favorite podcasts that you like to listen to?
  4. @ 39:31 – In Revelation 1:20 It says “…The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches…”, Who/what are the seven angels of the seven churches?

    Then in Revelation 4:5 it says “…Seven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.” What are the seven spirits of God? Mr. Google is confused
  5. @ 46:53 Someone I know has been having weird experiences. He has had a couple strange dreams and then woke up to see something in his room. (Ghost, apparition?) There are a few other weird things that have happened to him as well. He is definitely not an enthusiast of supernatural things or doesn’t take an interest in that kind of stuff. I don’t know what to make of it, what advice can I give him? He believes in a higher power but not a Christian.
  6. @ 54:00 – I’m not sure I agree with what was said about the joy of giving to others the gifts God has given to us. It seems that you said that we give gifts because of the joy we receive in giving the gift to someone else. We are not responsible for the person receiving the gift with joy. We’re only responsible for giving the gift. Right?
  7. @ 1:00 – Is it worthwhile to interact with people through social media/online communication to challenge their wrongheaded ideas, or is it just “casting our pearls before swine?” And if we do interact with them, how should we do so to be the most effective?

  1. @ 18:10 – How does it feel to be forty?
  2. @ 24:15 – The pastor was talking about we don’t have good perspective like a cow giving birth, does this mean he’s calling us cows?
  3. @ 27:01 – You talked about the gifts of God, and then talked about the fruit of the spirit. What about spiritual gifts. Are we going to talk about that?
  4. @ 28:12 – Can you please bring some light to the Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, and Teacher in Ephesians 4? How do you define a prophet, an apostle etc. Are there still prophets and apostles today? I recently heard someone teaching that “A prophet is to preserve the standard of God’s Word. Bringing our world into divine focus is the effect of prophetic ministries.”
  5. @ 40:07 –  Isaiah 42:5-6. … “And spirit to those who walk on it.” Is this referring to the Holy Spirit?
  6. @ 47:12 – In John 20:23 is Jesus giving His disciples the power to forgive sins? This verse seems to support Catholic’s confession?
