Do you have a question about: MySpace? "'What MySpace allows the people to do is become whatever they want or whoever they want. They create a site that may be nothing like them (except in their fantasies). Most young people give up on those fantasies when they come to Christ, but by being given the opportunity to become something they are not, and it being in private, there are some devastating results and they are put into incredibly risky situations.' Dean Hunsucker, Jr., a fundamental Baptist youth pastor ...warns: '...Welcome to a parents worst nightmare: MySpace.com. It is possible to create a space, add music, take digital photographs of yourself and upload them to the internet, and walk away from the computer without any evidence that you were ever there...'''

Do you have questions about: Is the King James Bible harder to read? ".....People have been conned with the lie that the new versions are much easier to understand. I've heard many times, 'The King James too hard to understand.' But the facts tell a different story. . . Gail Riplinger has a chapter in her best-selling New Age Bible Versions titled 'King James for Kids'. Mrs. Riplinger provides 23 pages of irrefutable evidence proving the King James Bible is far easier to understand and read. She lists over 350 examples in the New Testament where the King James Bible is much easier and simpler to understand. In comparing the first chapter of the first and last books of the Old and New Testaments, the Flesch-Kincaid research company’s Grade Level Indicator shows 'The KJV ranks easier in 23 out of 26 comparisons'..."

Do you have a question about: Christian Rock? "Does the Bible give any Guidelines for Christian Music? What gives you the right to judge the CCM artists? Aren't you doing more harm than good attacking other Christians? Why don't you quit being so negative and show some love? What's wrong with using rock as a tool to reach young people? What about the 'thousands' of people getting saved at CCM concerts? Will listening to rock music 'send me to hell?'"

Do you have a question about: Should I join a church? Which one? "Do you attend church services regularly? Are you a member of a church? If so, why? Over the years, I have learned that most church goers are going to all the wrong churches for all the wrong reasons... 'They have a good youth program.' 'My kid's friends go there.' ...'"My boyfriend goes there.'...Every reason given above is an UNSCRIPTURAL reason. God never told you to attend 'the church of your choice.' The devil told you that. God's word is supposed to be your Final Authority in life. God's word is your measuring stick. With God's word you can discern which church is the best church. The primary issue in choosing a church is DOCTRINE.... 20 Questions to Ask before Joining Any Church..."

Do you have questions about: What is a tithe? "Literally, the tithe is a tenth (Leviticus 27:32). As it applies to a gift to the Lord, it refers to a tenth of the increase. This increase can be income, or it can be the increase of a flock or other commodity. For instance, if a farmer has forty head of cattle and they give birth to ten calves in one year, the tithe is not on the fifty (40 + 10) but on the ten that make up the increase of the herd...Is the tithe on the gross or on the net? I tend to think that this question loses the very purpose of giving. We give as an expression of our love to the Lord. Giving is an act of worship--which means a declaration of the worth we place on Him. He does not ask for it all, but He does ask for a portion of what He has given us. Instead of answering this one directly, I will ask: what is God worth to you?..."

Do you have a question about: What is Biblical Separation? "One thing which has confused many people regarding the practice of separation is the fact that many divisions among Christians have no biblical basis. It is definitely not God's will that his people be divided over human traditions, or personality conflicts, or other man-made or sin-made barriers. Sad to say, though, this has often occurred. Speaking of those who are truly born again and who love and obey the Scriptures, God's Word says: 'Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity'...Contrary to popular opinion, the practice of biblical separation brings great blessing. It is not a practice motivated simply by a love for contention. It is not separation just for the sake of avoiding people we don't like, or fighting just for the sake of fighting. Let us consider the reasons given in the Bible for this practice:..."

Do you have a question about: Christian Cussing? "You say, 'Well, gosh! I wouldn't take God's name in vain!' You just did!....'Well, geeeeeeee!' ....You've also said 'Jeepers Creepers' when you really wanted to say 'Jesus Christ'...You probably wouldn't think of using the word 'damn' too loosely, but what about 'darn' and 'dang'? Do they not serve the same purpose?...Jesus said 'swear not,' yet God's people swear all the time! Such expressions as 'for Heaven's sake', 'for Pete's sake', and 'Heavens to Betsy' are attempts to swear by Bible subjects, which shows disrespect toward God...Remember: 'But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.' (Matthew 12:36)"

Do you have a question about: 666 or the Mark of the Beast? "The Bible over and over, tells Christians to look and expect the Lord to come back. Anytime. But if the Antichrist was coming FIRST – shouldn’t we be looking and expecting the Antichrist to show up FIRST?...One very important fact about the tribulation – the tribulation is NOT the wrath of Satan or the antichrist – but the WRATH OF GOD. It’s not Satan persecuting Christians. It’s the wrath of a holy God 'judging' this earth, Satan and Israel...'He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.' ...'For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;' ...Whoever receives the mark of the beast and worships the beast, will 'drink of the wine of the wrath of God...be tormented with fire and brimstone....for ever and ever'...If you refuse the mark, you will not be able to purchase even the essentials, such as food, water, utilities, etc. Basically, the whole world and Satan will be against you....let me give you some advice — if you’re not saved NOW – do it NOW...You don’t want to go in the tribulation..."

More Questions About: How can I HONOR my parents when I don't even LIKE them!? "...'Honor my parents? After what my father did to me? After all I had to go through with my mother? Are you kidding? Give me a break!' Without a doubt, there are some parents who have been insensitive and unloving in their actions, and have hurt their children deeply. We all know that some mothers and fathers don't appear to deserve honor. I have the misfortune sometimes to have to look young people in the eye and tell them, 'Okay, look! Some kids just have lousy parents'..."

More Questions About: What's wrong with the New International Version [NIV]Teen Study Bible? "....Scattered throughout the Teen Study Bible are 20 full-color pages that Zondervan describes as 'a Christian perspective on contemporary issues' and giving 'biblical answers to the toughest questions asked by today’s teens'. These pages easily stand out from all other pages. They are much thicker and much more graphic and colorful. As I first thumbed through the Teen Bible, my eyes instinctively stopped at these pages..."

More Questions About: Who's Singing the Songs? "...Before I got saved, I loved rock music. I can't believe anyone loved rock music more than me. I played rock guitar. I went to all the concerts. Rock music was my god, my best friend, my dream — rock music was my life...."

More Questions About: Should Every Christian Win Souls? "Many people today say, "Why should I win souls?" "Isn't the preacher supposed to do that?" Yes! He is but so is every Christian. There are six basic reasons why every Christian ought to win souls..."

More Questions About: How do I decide on Questionble Things? "A letter came from a sincere Christian wanting to know if a certain thing was right or wrong, stating that he had searched the Bible and could not find a clear verse regarding the matter....It is often suggested that the Christian let his conscience be his guide. I have heard preachers say, 'Follow your conscience,' but this is bad advice. One’s conscience is regulated by what he believes; and if he doesn’t believe right, his conscience will mislead him...So you cannot follow your conscience nor let your conscience be your guide. The Bible never instructs us, 'Follow your conscience.' If one cannot follow his conscience, and the Bible does not give detailed, clear instructions regarding every question the believer faces, then what is he to do regarding questionable things?..."

More Questions About: What is Courtship? "I have been asked this question more times than I can remember through the years. When I explain what it is, most people see the benefits of this approach to a marriage relationship. But many struggle with this commitment because of the discipline and self-control involved in living it out. Growing up, my parents had been taught and encouraged that Christian dating was the way to go. So as a teenager, I sought to have relationships with girls that followed the guidelines my parents had set for me. I would bring my girlfriend to church, youth outings and other Christian activities. I felt I needed a girlfriend to be accepted. My life revolved around emotional highs and lows, and I remember being exposed to many unnecessary temptations..."

More Questions About: What about Dating? "How do you maintain healthy relationships with the opposite gender? By maintaining vibrant social networks, built on shared missions, shared commitments to God, shared interests, and shared service...Where problems begin is when there is a distinction and segregation, as one 'couple' distinguishes themselves from all others and looses strength and support of that network by focusing on each other rather than maintaining a focus on God and others..."
