Questions and Responses

Question: Why does Revelation 17:8 (and maybe Revelation 13:8, depending on the translation used) refer to those “whose names were not written in the book of life from the creation of the world...”?

Question: Were Adam and Eve created perfect? If so, how could they sin? If they were created with a will that could choose to sin, how could they have been perfect?

Question: To "repent" means to "change one's mind." Where do you or anyone get the idea that it means to "turn away" from sin?

Question: [TBC's] statement that John Calvin taught that Infant Baptism saves betrays a regrettable ignorance of Calvin’s beliefs....I request you publish this clarification of our Protestant, Reformed position.

Question: How can you believe both in God's foreknowledge and that man has the power of choice?

Question: I was recently sent a book that rather shocked me. Its title is Have Heart: Bridging the Gulf Between Heaven and Earth. It seems to do what you objected to in Heaven Is For Real [in a previous TBC article]. What do you think?

Question: I’ve been told by a Calvinist that if I’m not a Calvinist, then I’m an Arminian. As a Christian, do I have to be one or the other?

Question: Do you know the difference between salvation and redemption?

Question: Who is Jesus talking to in Matthew 7:22, 23? Nominal Christians? People who “think” they’re Christians? Born-again Christians who messed up?
