Questions and Responses

Question: Are we in the U.S. exempt for any particular reason from persecution? Or do you think it is going to take place here?

Question [composite of several]: I keep reading reports about persecution of Christians in Indonesia and other places. I agree that it is horrible, but why do these people draw attention to themselves by insisting on meeting for church services?

Question: I am struggling with the terms “surrender” and “submission.” We have all heard the saying that when we become Christians we surrender or submit to Christ. And to a certain extent this is true. I can’t even find the word “surrender” in the New Te

Question: You have referred to the Albigenses as true Christians, yet every encyclopedia I’ve looked into says they...believed in a good god and an evil god, that they were involved in ritual suicide and immorality. How could you make such a blunder?

Question: In your December article you wrote that Switzerland and Sweden both turned away Jews trying to escape Hitler’s ovens....I lived in Sweden during all the war years...and never heard of...this....

Question: Is the Holy Spirit literally in us?
