Questions in this Episode

 

1. Should I join a church that requires me to be baptized a second time?

2. Is the NIV translation of the Bible problematic?

3. I remember growing up and hearing people say things like earthquakes, tornados, or hurricanes are God's judgement on that place or nation. And I don't think that's right, but I'm wondering, how do you answer folks who do say those kinds of things after tragedies like Hurricane Ian happen?

4. Is it necessary to be a member of a church?

5. Can I make anointing oil as gifts?

6. Is closed communion a biblical practice?
