Unforgiveable Sin

September 7, 2007 Pastor Greg Allen 0

“I’ve been told by different people different things about the “unforgivable sin”. Some say that it’s the sin of rejecting Jesus Christ when the Holy Spirit reveals Him to be the Savior. Others say that it’s the sin of attributing the miracles of Jesus Christ to Satan. While the latter is really bad, is it unforgivable? What would make it unforgivable? I can see how rejecting Christ becomes unforgivable; but what about the other?”

Abram & Sarai

How important is the church family to our spiritual lives? Should we treat our church family as an extension of our family, nurturing and holding ourselves accountable to them; or do treat it the same as school and work – a desirable necessity, but not crucial?

Vengeance

May 3, 2007 Pastor Greg Allen 0

A visitor to our website writes with a question about “vengeance” in the Bible. He reads Romans 12:19 – “Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but give place to wrath; for it is written, ‘Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,’ says the Lord.” He was told that to avenge does not mean vindictiveness, revenge, or retaliation; but that it means restoration of wholeness and integrity. He was told that cries to God for vengeance in the Bible are often cries for redemption, restoration, health, and healing. He writes to ask for clarification on this.

Where are our souls before conception?

November 4, 2006 Pastor Greg Allen 0

In the opening passage of Jeremiah’s prophecy, we read: ‘Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,’ and in Psalm 139:16 David said: ‘Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.’ It is clear from the Bible that from the womb, we are a person in God’s eyes. However, my question is about our souls.
“Since persons have eternal souls, where are our souls before conception?”

Bishops and Cretans

September 3, 2006 Pastor Greg Allen 0

Was Apostle Paul inspired by God when he wrote in Titus 1:5-14 concerning bishops? If so, how come White Baptists don’t have bishops in their churches and Catholic bishops are not married? Also, if Paul can say “Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons… Therefore rebuke them sharply,” can’t we say that others are always liars and evil beasts; and deceivers especially Cessasionists who are to be rebuked sharply?
