Summary

Today's Time Stamps: 1. 0:31 {How to Pray Without Ceasing} What does it mean to "pray without ceasing" as instructed in 1Thessalonians 5:17, and how do we practically achieve this?2. 17:44 {Proof of Annihilationism?} Does Isaiah 66:24 prove annihilationism? The only counter verse seems to be Revelation 14:10-11 and most of the Bible talks about Sheol, perishing, or the wages being death.3. 25:35 {WHY is Cussing Wrong?} I know I'm "supposed to" believe cuss words are bad to use as a Christian, but can you help me REALLY understand why? Most of them don't "feel" wrong to say in casual settings, especially if I'm by MYSELF (home alone and I trip or something).4. 33:11 {Demons Drowning – Why?} When Jesus cast the Legion of demons into the swine, why do they proceed to drown themselves? It showed the validity of the man being healed, but what was the actual reason for the demons to do so?5. 38:37 {Can We Truly Learn if Forgiven?} My friend says he doesn't want forgiveness because he won't learn from his mistakes if he doesn't face consequences. How would you respond?6. 45:26 {Must All People Hear before Rapture?} Does Matthew 24:14 teach that the rapture will not happen until all people groups hear the Gospel? Or could Christ return before this happens?7. 53:39 {Marriage in God’s Eyes} What does it take for someone to be considered married in the eyes of God? A ceremony? A presiding religious leader? Religious words spoken? Having a legal certificate? Intimate acts?8. 1:01:35 {Are We Judged Twice?} Are we judged twice? Luke 16:19-23 and Revelation 20:11-13 suggest so.9. 1:09:41 {Can WE Bless GOD?} Popular worship song lyrics say things like "I bless You" (as in we humans can bless God) and "You are enough, so I am enough." Is this biblical? Does Christ's righteousness imparted onto us also make us "enough"?10. 1:20:27 {Voting for the “Lesser of 2 Evils”?} Is it biblical to vote for “the lesser of two evils”? Could you point to something in Scripture to help us understand why or why not? Links you may be interested in... What is the Abomination of Desolation (the sign of the End Times)?

0:00.0	Here we go. This is the 10 questions with Mike Winger on Mike Winger.
0:10.1	Trying to help you learn to think biblically about everything that is I want to provoke
0:13.9	your thought process I really mean that you're an intellectual thought process working
0:19.1	through difficult challenging questions about the Bible Christianity life in general as it relates to how a
0:25.0	Christian should live, the defense of Christianity, all that kind of stuff. I want you to think
0:30.7	about it. So our first question to think about today is how do I pray without ceasing?
0:38.0	So you've got this verse in the New Testament, her 1st Thessalonians 517, top of the screen there, says,
0:44.5	Pray Without Ceasing.
0:46.4	This can be quite a challenge for people when they think about it.
0:49.6	How do I pray without ceasing?
0:51.1	And I've heard a lot of people talk about this and I want to break it down.
0:54.9	I'll use biblical examples that talk about prayer. I will also talk about the value of prayer itself
1:02.4	and then how to apply it. Now let me just say first off
1:06.1	when I'm analyzing a verse, when you're analyzing a verse of scripture and you don't know what it means right away. Like you read it and you go
1:12.1	it's not immediately obvious what that means right away. Like you read it and you go, it's not immediately obvious
1:13.4	what that means to me.
1:14.8	It's good to think about your what I call options.
1:17.6	Now it's not that all these are valid interpretations,
1:19.9	but you sort of say, well, what could it mean?
1:22.2	It could mean this, it could could mean that so it's a good
1:24.2	process to go through with any verse of scripture where you're trying to understand what it means
1:28.6	so one option would be that pray without ceasing means that you're actually in a continual
