Summary
1:22 What was your perspective on the divorce conversation with Constantine? Did anything he said push you to re-evaluate your current stance?
8:28 With a non-violent stance (which I share), how do you see church security? To me, it seems to be suspicious of others and prioritizes the lives of believers.
14:41 Is it possible that Adam was not sexed before Eve was created? Thinking through how Adam renamed himself and wasn't "man" until woman was created.
20:18 How involved are supernatural forces in our daily lives? The ancient world recognized much more than we do. Is this important for believers today?
28:30 With all your research into the NT church, do you see any benefits to keeping church sizes intentionally smaller and more localized?
43:57 Given that circumcision was given as a sign of the covenant in Genesis 17, what does this say about women? Did God not make a OT covenant with them?
48:46 Age of accountability. Is this really a thing??
53:59 Have you maintained a relationship with the Revoice people and what direction do you think it and the Side B movement is going?
1:00:53 Is it sinful for Christians to save money for retirement or other personal financial goals) in light of Scripture’s commands to be generous/care for the poor?
1:07:26 I recently asked ChatGPT to make a biblical case for universalism and for eternal torment. Both were compelling. How might AI impact the future of theology?
1:11:55 Thoughts on churches like North Point hosting an LGBTQ conference with primarily affirming speakers, and Saddleback partnering with “The Reformation Project”?
1:17:58 Dino episode: Was God's creation imperfect if death existed before the fall of man? Did God create death? What about Romans 8 talking about creation groaning?
1:26:38 What do you think of rewards in Heaven? To me, it seems to imply inequality in Heaven. And Matt 20:1-16 could be seen as pushing back on it.

| 0:00.0 | Hello, friends. Welcome back to another bonus episode of The Origin Raw. This is a Q&A episode |
| 0:06.0 | where I field questions sent in for my Patreon supporters. They send in the questions. They vote |
| 0:11.6 | on which ones they want me to address. And I take the top 10 or 12 and wrestle with those questions. |
| 0:16.4 | And what you're going to get is a sneak peek into the first few questions that I wrestle with. |
| 0:20.0 | And these are really tough, too, by the way. In fact, I just recorded a first draft of my |
| 0:25.0 | response to these questions that I deleted it because I was like, I didn't like how responded. |
| 0:29.8 | So this is kind of a round two. So anyway, if you would like to become part of the Patreon |
| 0:35.0 | team, you can go to patreon.com forward slash the origin of rock and access to all kinds of bonus |
| 0:39.5 | stuff, including the full length Q&A podcasts, which you're going to get a sneak peek to my |
| 0:44.8 | Patreon supporters will get access to full length podcasts. And you can also become part of the |
| 0:50.0 | process where you can ask questions and vote on questions and all that fun stuff. So |
| 0:53.7 | here are some of the ones I'm going to wrestle with in this podcast. What is my perspective on |
| 0:57.2 | the divorce conversation with Constantine? That was a podcast episode. I did a few episodes ago |
| 1:03.1 | with a non-violent stance, which I share. How do you see church security? That's a really tough |
| 1:07.4 | question. What do I think about the direction revises going? What do I think about Northpoint |
| 1:12.4 | Church and Saddleback Church having LGBTQ conferences where most of the speakers are affirming? |
| 1:17.2 | I think it's primarily directed towards Northpoint. Although, yeah, there's some questions |
| 1:22.1 | we have to wrestle with with regard to Saddleback Church. Is there such a thing as an age of |
| 1:26.7 | accountability? Is it possible that Adam was not sexed before Eve was created? How might AI impact |
| 1:32.4 | the future of technology I'm going to wrestle with? All of these questions and many more on this |
| 1:38.0 | podcast, bonus episode. Okay, let's jump into the first one. |
| 1:41.7 | Catherine says, thanks to the podcast. You are very welcome, Catherine. What was your perspective |
