Don’t forget what Paul also said. “Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:” Ephesians 4: 26 (KJV) Paul says we can be angry and not sin. He also says to take care of it before the day ends.

You’ve said that anger is a sin even when we think it’s justified and referenced Ephesians 4:26-27. My interpretation of these verses is that anger can lead to sin, but anger itself is not a sin. The scene when Jesus cleanses the temple of the money changers in John 2 comes to mind, as Jesus certainly seems to be angry. This would imply sin in Jesus which scripture says is not the case. Can you please elaborate?

I am in a Genesis study and would like to know more about the “fall of Satan”. I would like to have scripture passages as to “how”, “when”, “where” and “why”.

I have a question I would like to ask you regarding the future experience of the Christian. There are things I enjoy that are not sinful, such as reading books, studying science and physics, collecting knives and reading about knives/edged tools/cutlery history, eating good food like pizza and cheeseburgers and spaghetti with meatballs, and things like this that are not sinful. Can I have confidence that the Lord will allow me to continue to enjoy to enjoy these things and more in Heaven?

Re: Why Won’t People Listen? Your answer begins, “You’re referring to Acts 2:17-18.” How can Acts 2:17-18 be applied to Gentiles? All that were there at this meeting were Jewish believers in Jesus. I realize it says “all flesh” but it also says “your sons and your daughters” and “your young men …, and your old men”. I have been led to believe that this refers to the believing remnant of Israel in the tribulation. Zechariah12:10

God is perfect in every way. Therefore His original creation, including man, was perfect in every way. Yet the first man, with no sin nature, chose to sin. We call it a free will decision. At the Rapture, we will be perfected. Our sin nature will be gone. We will still have our free will. We will have the ability to sin yet we will choose not to sin. So how will we be different from Adam?

For the past twenty years I have worked in a factory. I have been wanting to change my career but I don’t know where to start. I decided to find out what my Spiritual gifts are and see if there is something professionally I can do with them. The results from online tests I took indicates showed me to be gifted as a teacher who also has the gift of discernment. What can I do with these gifts which God has given me to provide for my family at the same time glorifying God? I have been praying and am simply waiting for an answer; for a door to open. What wisdom can you give me in this situation?

In the Bible it speaks of people who will be blessed to receive visions of future events in the end days. How are we to share these visions without someone thinking we have gone crazy? I’ve been having them since the year 2000 and I have tried to talk to a “few” people and no one wants to even listen. I know that the world is full of unbelievers, but these people are in the ministry and none are willing to even believe that this could possibly happen. Why would God give someone like me (no one of any importance whatsoever) this gift only to have people reject me because of it?

I’m a Christian yet I have sinned. I went outside my marriage and had a child by another man. My husband forgave me and we are still married and the child will never know the truth. Unfortunately, I lied about the true identity of the person to my husband. It’s now five years plus since he forgave me and I’m afraid to revisit the incident and to tell the full truth. I have been faithful since but I am still burdened and fearful of the future if I continue to keep details secret. I don’t know what to do and how to feel. As a true believer should I lay everything out or can I ask God to forgive my deception for fear of hurting my husband once again.

Our pastor had recently made the comment that if we do not tithe and give ten percent in our offering that we are luke warm believers. I thought that luke warm believers will not be saved. Can I get your opinion on this?
