All right, no one sent this in, but I thought it might be of interest. I am appalled when I see Hurricane Gustav roaring towards my friends with Hannah close behind (and another looks to be forming behind that). Since we are talking about demons, it might be time to talk about demons and storms. [...]
There certainly is a lot of interest in this subject. Understandable, really… You said that demons can inhabit places and things. I had never heard that from a Christian before. Not that it is wrong, but in 50 years of church, I had never been told that. Could you elaborate on how you came to [...]
This one fits in well with our discussion of angels and demons… Who were the Nephilim in Genesis 6:1-4? Were they angels or demons or just men? Here is the passage in full: "When men began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that [...]
Several good comments followed the last question and answer. If nothing else, they reveal that the readers of this blog are thinkers and that quick and easy answers aren’t available for all situations, including what happens to the suicide or what constitutes suicide. Is death from anorexia suicide? No, not unless there was a deliberate [...]
You can’t be involved in the ministry for long before this one comes up: I have heard the belief that suicide is a sin. Some of my friends hold this belief, and I can understand their thinking (being audacious enough to decide when you end your life rather than letting God choose). But I can [...]
Some more questions about demons came in at tentpegsquestion@yahoo.com so let’s deal with two of them today. My friend did a study of demons and says that because only God is omnipotent, Satan doesn’t know everything that is going on and he relies on his demons to give him information. She said that I am [...]
We are coming right back to a discussion of demons and angels. A few more questions came shooting in at tentpegsquestion@yahoo.com and it seems that I really need to answer them quickly as people are concerned about the issue. I am taking a very quick break to answer a short question this evening as I [...]
Thank you for sending questions into tentpegsquestion@yahoo.com and sending me encouraging emails and comments. I am constantly amazed at how many people are reading this every day. I wish I could update it more often but my day job intrudes. Thanks to all who are praying for me. That is the only way I make [...]
Sometimes the basics need revisiting… Since we are to find all of our doctrine in the Bible, where does it say, exactly, that sex between two people who love each other but who are not married to each other is sinful? is sex outside of marriage always wrong? The Bible is very clear on this [...]
At tentpegsquestion@yahoo.com there are several versions of the same genre of question. I will shove them together and present them as two questions. "The Bible says that we will suffer persecution if we are Christians. I’ve been a Christian for a long time and I don’t think I’ve ever experienced it. Does that mean I’m [...]
