Questions and Responses

Question: In a future edition of the newsletter, I would like to see an evaluation of Mr. Wiese's book, 23 Minutes In Hell.

Question: Are you familiar with Rob Bell's book Love Wins?

Question: An SDA teacher has said that the word "everlasting" doesn't necessarily mean "forever." Is he correct?

Question: We’re asking for counsel on the matter of biblical reproof.... What do you believe is the appropriate response and action to be taken when young believers are living in error?

Question: I have a question that I hope you can help with. Is God’s “Permissive Will” a biblical concept or just a man-made theory?
