Our Ten Commandments Series has now brought us to the Ninth Commandment, regarding not bearing false witness against our neighbor. To properly dig into the meaning of this command, we need to remember its context. After the first several Commandments taught us about our spiritual connection with God, the next several focused us on our […] The post What Does It Really Mean to Bear False Witness? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
We are now ready to consider the Eighth Commandment in our Ten Commandments Series. Through the first seven, we have seen that honoring God from our hearts and with our actions is our foundation. The Sabbath was created to remind us of this sacred responsibility. We are then taught to honor our parents as the […] The post Do We Ever Steal Without Realizing It? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
As we continue our Ten Commandment Series, we are now to the point of deeply examining the commandments that directly govern our interpersonal human relationships. This began with honoring our father and mother, as a basic tenant for living respectful lives. Next was the clear command to not murder, and we found that Jesus, in […] The post Is Adultery More Subtle than We Think? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
In this Ten Commandments Series, we are looking at each commandment individually to see how they all apply to our present day personal Christian lives. In our systematic examination of each of the first five commandments, we have seen a powerful interconnectedness that deepens their meaning to us. The first three focus on God as […] The post What Makes Christians Guilty of Murder? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
The Fifth Commandment God gave to Israel after He freed them from slavery was a simple statement of respect. God instructed each and every individual to honor their parents. To really understand the import of this command from God to His people of Israel and to us, it is important to do two things. First, […] The post What Does Honoring Our Parents Really Mean? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
Although the Ten Commandments are well known, the sad reality is they certainly are not well practiced. In our current Ten Commandment series we are examining each one and how it relates to our Christian lives here and now. So far, we’ve covered the first three and have found them to be deeply connected and […] The post Does Honoring the Sabbath Apply to Christians Today? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
As we continue our Ten Commandments series, we are focusing on how each and every Commandment given by God to Israel after their being freed from slavery has direct and profound meaning for us as Christians. While we live in a VERY different world, the principles of each of those Commandments are powerfully important for […] The post Do I Ever Take God’s Name in Vain? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
In our last episode, we unfolded the revealing of the Ten Commandments to the nation of Israel after they were miraculously freed from Egyptian slavery. We observed how God powerfully reminded them that their deliverance came from Him, and how their loyalty to Him was to be reflected by the First Commandment’s instruction of having […] The post How Do I Keep Idols Out of My Life? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
The giving of the Ten Commandments to the people of Israel after their miraculous deliverance from slavery in Egypt was part of one of the most memorable series of events in the entire Old Testament. Here were these millions of people who were now free from bondage but as yet with no home, and no […] The post Do the Ten Commandments Apply to Christians Today? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
If we are not careful, it can be easy to misrepresent God. So often we hear people proclaim that God is a God of anger and wrath, a God who demands that we fear Him. While God does absolutely and ultimately demand that all will eventually honor and reverence Him, we need to be able […] The post What Is the ‘Fear of the Lord’? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
Temptation is everywhere. In fact, it may be lurking in places that we are not even aware of. Let’s put this in perspective: Who do you claim to be? If you answered that you claim to be a Christian, then the next question is, who do you serve and in whose footsteps are you therefore […] The post How Do I Identify Temptation and Shut It Down? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
We all sin. We all make mistakes and sometimes they are just plain embarrassing. As Christians, we know that forgiveness for our sins can be readily available as a result of Jesus’ sacrifice. The question is, what do I have to do to access that availability? Is it automatic? Am I forgiven just because I […] The post Is It Necessary to Confess My Sins? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
There are two fundamental lessons we can learn about God from having a general knowledge of the true message of the Bible. First, we know that God is love, as He created humanity for the sake of having an eternal human family. Second, God is just. His love for humanity is not weak and unreliable; […] The post Did God Curse the World? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
In Part I of this 2-part series, we introduced several reasons why many Christians believe women should be able to serve as pastors. Our scriptural considerations began with understanding what the “equality in Christ” in our theme text means. We found that it is pointing to an immovable foundation for people of differing ethnicities, different […] The post Should Women Be Pastors?

The world has changed dramatically over the last 2,000 years. If you are accessing this podcast information, then the world you live in has gone from a very localized environment where the fastest news traveled was by horseback or boat, to a society of instant access for all news and information. Your world has transformed […] The post Should Women Be Pastors? (Part I) appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
In our last episode, we laid out a scriptural foundation for how human free will works by considering two Old Testament accounts. First, we looked at Joshua and how he was called upon by God to lead Israel after the death of Moses. His choosing to closely follow God’s direction in this task made him […] The post How Does Our Free Will Work in God’s Plan? (Part II) appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
The Bible plainly teaches us that God in His unfathomable wisdom and power has a clear plan for the destiny of ALL humanity. We also know according to 1 Peter 1:20 that His plan for the sacrifice of Jesus was clearly in place even before the earth was created. Now, if God’s plan was clear […] The post How Does Our Free Will Work in God’s Plan? (Part I) appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
Are Christians who claim to heal and who claim to speak in tongues operating within the scriptural guidelines of Christianity today, or have they taken a giant step over the line of appropriate Christian behavior? In our last episode, we observed how the Old Testament established healing as an occasional gift and was not necessarily […] The post Are Christians Today Really Capable of Healing People and Speaking in Tongues? (Part II) appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
Christianity today is diverse. When you think about it, there should only be one version of the Gospel, and it should be entirely based upon the Bible as a whole, specifically the words and actions of Jesus as well as the words and actions of his apostles and disciples in the New Testament. In many […] The post Are Christians Today Really Capable of Healing People or Speaking in Tongues? (Part I) appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
In our last episode, we examined the deep lessons Jesus was teaching his apostles when he appeared to seven of them after his resurrection while they were fishing. His miracle of orchestrating the massive catch of fish was a direct throwback to his fishing miracle three years before, when Simon Peter finally gave up fishing […] The post Why Did Jesus Challenge Peter’s Love? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
The crucifixion of Jesus was an event that absolutely overwhelmed his apostles and disciples. Even though Jesus had forewarned them of what was coming, they were still taken by complete surprise. In his great wisdom, Jesus arranged his post-resurrection appearances in such a way as to them to show them not only who he was, […] The post After His Resurrection, What Did Jesus Teach Us About Fishing? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
There are many Bible accounts that have gathered a lot of attention over centuries because of their dramatic content. Cain and Abel, Noah and the Ark and David and Goliath are all powerful and dramatic Old Testament accounts filled with action. Two New Testament are Jesus in the manger and Jesus on the cross. All […] The post Was ‘Doubting Thomas’ Really a Doubter? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
God is watching over me. God’s got this. The Lord will take care of it. These are all expressions of faith in God’s overruling care for us. While this kind of faith is something we should all strive for, the question remains as to what makes these statements true. Just because I say, “God will […] The post How Does God’s Providence Work in Our Lives? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
Let’s get practical. For most of us, the largest portion of our waking hours is spent working in one way or another to support ourselves and our household. Whether we are in a trade or at a desk, whether we are engaged in a service or retail or farming, building, manufacturing or raising children or […] The post How Is My Faith Revealed When I Am at Work? appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
At the beginning of his second letter, the Apostle Peter reminded us that God, in His power and love, has graciously given us everything we need to be faithful to the calling of discipleship. This walk of sacrifice is supported by the overwhelming gift of God’s precious and magnificent promises. Peter then tells us that […] The post What Does a Fully Supplied Christian Character Look Like? (Christian Character Series Part X) appeared first on Christian Questions Bible Podcast.
