It's amazing to be of one heart and one mind as believers together! Does God help Christians keep the Law? Why does Jesus intercede for us if our sins are already taken away? Should I drop my health insurance and just trust Jesus?   *Previously aired

I struggle with guilt over my past adultery and divorce. When you warn people about not receiving God's grace, who are you talking to? Aren't believers forgiven and living under grace already? Help me understand, and I need encouragement. My son got taken in by a movement I'm worried about. I feel responsible and guilty! What can I do? What do you think of women participating in church? As deacons? As exhorters? What does the Bible say? And what about the two passages on women remaining silent? I'm so grateful for The Grace Message. Thank you!

Read Hebrews 2:14. What stands out to you about why Jesus shared fully in flesh and blood? Read Hebrews 2:15. How does fear of death (or loss, failure, rejection) still subtly influence people today—and how does Jesus' victory speak to that? Read Hebrews 2:16-17. Why is it comforting to know that Jesus represents you as a merciful High Priest rather than a demanding one? Read Hebrews 2:18. In what way does knowing Jesus experienced real temptation change how you view your own struggles? What role can the indwelling Christ play for you? Read Galatians 4:4–5. What does it mean to you personally that Jesus entered life "under the Law" so you wouldn't have to live there? Read Galatians 4:6.

It's amazing to be of one heart and one mind as believers together! Does God help Christians keep the Law? Why does Jesus intercede for us if our sins are already taken away? Should I drop my health insurance and just trust Jesus?

Many people today seem to be chasing the "power" of God. What is the power of God? What is the evidence of being saved? How much evidence do we need? Where does fruit bearing fit in? What about "easy believism"? Shouldn't we be concerned about that?

I misrepresented my motives for marriage years ago. Am I forgiven by God for the sin of dishonesty? How do we convince others of the finished work of Christ? What about 1 John 1:9? Who is it written to? How can we know for sure?

Would you pray for my housing situation? Why is the resurrection so central to Christianity? What does it mean for us personally? What are your thoughts on "hypergrace"? Why is Jesus called the "firstborn of the dead" in Revelation 1:5?

What should I know about angels? Was the disciple Matthew autistic? My girlfriend's funeral was today, and my pastor said only chosen people go to heaven. This worries me! Can you explain?

I suffer with sleep paralysis. What can I do? If our sins are forgiven, then do we have to give an account? I never really knew God until now! Does the punishment in Hell last forever or come to an end? How come God doesn't use more "gotcha" moments to prove Jesus is Messiah? I wish I could experience Christ as my life more. What should I do?

What If God Moved In—For You? Discussion Questions: Read verses 1–3. What does it mean to you personally that Jesus is your Creator? How does this shape the way you see His authority, care, and nearness? Read verses 4–5. React to this statement: "Jesus is the light of men." What does His light reveal, and what does it overcome? Read verses 6–8. What was the purpose of John the Baptist's ministry? Why was his role intentionally limited and temporary? Read verse 11. Why do you think so many people rejected Jesus, even when He came to His own? Read verses 12–13. React to this statement: Those who believe and receive Christ are born of God. Why is this simple message so difficult for people? Read verse 16. What does it mean to you to have received from His fullness? How have you experienced "grace upon grace" in your life? Read verse 17. How does this verse contrast the old covenant with the new covenant? What changes when grace and truth come through Jesus Christ? Read verse 18. How does Jesus explain God to us

If our sins are taken away, why does Romans 4:7 say "covered"? What does "work out your salvation with fear and trembling" really mean? Does Galatians 2:20 say we live by faith "in" Christ or by the faith "of" Christ?

Why are the genealogies of Jesus so different in Matthew and Luke? I struggle with obsessive thoughts and wonder if I truly "did it right" to get saved. Do we really have to submit to any and every pastor? What if it's an unhealthy environment or dynamic?

I wanted to leave a church, but the pastor told me I had to submit to him. Is that healthy? What are your thoughts on C.S. Lewis? Are there still demons today? I struggle with worry and don't know how to find victory over it. Can you help? What did you mean when you said "we want to be left behind"?

Better to give than receive? What does that mean in the context of Acts 20? In Romans 7, why does Paul say, "I was once alive apart from the Law"? How exactly did God reveal Himself to Isaiah? What does it mean for Jesus to share His glory with us?

Take up your cross? Lose your life? To whom was Jesus referring? What are your thoughts on the Orthodox traditions? How do I share the core message of Christianity with my grandchildren?

How do Orthodox Jews look at God's forgiveness if there are no current sacrifices? Doesn't James 4:8 say we need to get closer to God? What's the truth about crowns and rewards in Heaven? What's happening with those scary verses in 2 Peter 2? Do they refer to loss of salvation? What should I do about my adult child who has rebelled? Doesn't 1 Corinthians 3 talk about loss of rewards (plural)?

If Christ lives in you, why are you still trying to do this alone? Discussion Questions: Read John 3:36 and 5:24. What does it mean to "see life" and to have "passed out of death into life"? Read John 14:19 and react to this statement: "Because I live, you will live also." Read John 14:23. What does it mean to you to have the entire Trinity living within you? Read Romans 5:10 and react to this statement: I am reconciled by Jesus' death and saved by Jesus' life. Read Romans 8:10-11. What does "the spirit is alive because of righteousness" mean for the imputed-vs-imparted righteousness debate? Read 1 John 4:13 and 2:27. How do you understand "abiding" better because of these? Read Galatians 5:16, 25. In your own words, describe what it means to walk by the Spirit.

My neighbors are awful. Is it okay to wish they didn't come home? I felt so much darkness when I was praying for salvation 20 years ago. Now I look back, and I'm scared it wasn't legitimate! Why does John 8 say the disciples needed to "abide" or "continue" in His word?

A popular pastor said we have to use our talents or we are like the third servant in Matthew 25. Is this true? Might we be left behind at Christ's return if we have not done enough? Why am I being viciously attacked if I haven't done anything wrong? What can I do?
