Summary

Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:1. 1:32 {Discerning the Spirit’s Voice} Is the confirmation of the Holy Spirit distinguishable from an evil demon or psychological self-deception?2. 29:50 {Do We Give Off “Energy”?} Is “energy” in the esoteric form of the word biblical? I was recently told in a Christian forum that I was “giving off [blank] energy.” Is this biblical?3. 36:36 {Who will Sit on the Thrones?} In Matthew 19:28, Jesus states the 12 disciples will sit on 12/24 thrones in the regeneration. In Revelation 4:4, 24 elders are sitting on the thrones. Who are the other 12?4. 39:08 {Proof of Transubstantiation?} If Jesus identifies Himself as “the Word” and Ezekiel literally ate the Word of God (Ezekiel 3:1-3), is this a good case for Ezekiel being an analogy to the Catholic transubstantiation of the Eucharist being true?5. 47:28 {Tongues/Prophecy for Believers or Unbelievers?} Can you please explain 1 Corinthians 14:22-24? Verse 22 states that tongues are a sign for unbelievers, and prophecy is for believers. But vv. 23 and 24 then go on to, seemingly, describe the exact opposite. 6. 50:57 {God’s Name in Vain} What does it mean to not mention God's name in vain?7. 56:13 {The Spirit With, In & Upon Us} When David is anointed in 1 Samuel 16, the Bible says that “the Spirit of the Lord rushed upon David from that day forward.” How would this be similar or different from us receiving the Spirit now?8. 1:00:32 {Can a Pastor’s Wife be an Unbeliever?} Do the qualifications for pastors/elders in 1 Timothy 3:1-7 and Titus 1:5-9 disqualify a man who has an unbelieving wife?9. 1:09:56 {About OT Quotes in the NT} How should we understand inerrancy for New Testament passages that appear to quote the Old Testament, but no clear reference can be found? (e.g., James 4:5, Matthew 2:23).10. 1:14:49 {Grieving our Loved Ones when Not Sure of Salvation} My mom just passed away and I am unsure of her salvation. I know she prayed with the hospital's chaplains. My kids ask if they will see her in Heaven. How do I talk to them about this? ***HERE is the clip search feature.

0:00.0	Right before I get to the first question, I just want to remind you guys of something really amazing.
0:10.0	Scripture has this verse in Jude,
0:12.8	verse 24, it says,
0:14.1	Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling
0:17.1	and to present you faultless, faultless
0:20.3	before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, God our Savior who alone is wise be glory and majesty
0:25.9	Dominion and power both now and forever Amen look at the the power of God to keep you to keep you as in
0:39.6	keeping you saved, keeping you in Christ. The power of God that God is able to do this. This is great security for the Christian who is perhaps a genuine believer but knows that they struggle
0:45.8	with issues, knows that they deal with sin, but there is a genuine faith and trust and reliance and
0:50.1	commitment to Christ that's there to just remember God keeps you and he's the one who presents you faultless. You don't present yourself faultless, right?
0:58.4	Your sinlessness before God, as you get presented before him, it comes through Jesus Christ, washed by his blood coming with his
1:06.6	righteousness. He presents you faultless. You don't present yourself according to your
1:11.3	own good deeds. It's just a great encouragement for me. God is good,
1:14.7	God is in control right now today, no matter what chaos is going on, no matter what hardship you're facing.
1:19.7	All those things are your comfort and are your help in the middle of all that and
1:23.7	it's a good thing. So the first question for today, by the way I'm Mike Winger, my
1:27.2	goal is to help you learn to think biblically about everything and we tackle
1:30.9	questions on Fridays. The first question for today
1:33.3	and the rest will come from the live chat
1:34.9	is, is the confirmation of the Holy Spirit
1:37.5	distinguishable from an evil demon
1:39.6	or psychological self-deception?
