Q:   Why is wisdom always referred to in a feminine manner?


Q:   Why does some of the information in the gospels differ from each other regarding the same occasions?


Q:   Does your congregation believe that women are able to pray and worship with uncovered heads?


Q:   Why is church held on Sunday? If God rested on the seventh day, why isn't church on Saturday? Wasn't the day of rest the Sabbath? Also, why do Jews go to temple on Saturday?


Q:   How do you feel about drinking? Most people say that priests are not supposed to drink or get drunk, but doesn't the Bible also call Christians a "royal priesthood?"


Q:   Can a man who had never previously been married but is married to a woman that has been scripturally divorced be a deacon?


Q:   Israel is the nation of God which He brought out of Egypt, from which nation also came the Messiah. But what do you think is God's plan for them? Will they be spared as a nation in the course of time and win wars over the Muslim world? Or someday will they accept Christ finally? Will God save their souls while holding to Judaism and not Christianity?


Q:   In the Bible, Jesus says that we must eat His flesh and drink His blood or we will have no life in us. Why doesn’t your church take Jesus at His word? Why do you say that you partake of His flesh and blood spiritually "only" when, in fact, He did not say that?


Q:   The man I married was married before. He divorced for reasons other than adultery. After being married to him, I studied the Bible and realized my marriage was not a lawful marriage. I have divorced him for that reason. Am I able to marry again?


Q:   Matthew 27:9 relates a prophecy attributed to Jeremiah concerning the Messiah's betrayal, but the prophecy is found in Zechariah 11:12-13. How is this explained?


Q:   In Matthew 19:9, the exception for one to remarry after divorcing is fornication (not adultery). Would you define fornication to be synonymous with adultery?


Q:   Is speaking in tongues necessary for salvation?


Q:   What is the scope of the 1 Corinthians 11 prohibition on partaking the Lord's supper: "Let a man examine himself..."?


Q:   You say that baptism is essential to salvation. What about the person who accepts the Lord, but does not have the opportunity to be baptized?


Q:   How will Christ judge those people who have not heard the gospel at all? Will they be judged without the law?


Q:   What is the Biblical reason for refraining from gambling?


Q:   Does your congregation believe that women are able to speak or teach in the assembly?


Q:   Who was caught up to the third heaven and heard inexpressible words which a man is not permitted to speak? How is such a man in the body or apart from the body? Is that man the Apostle Paul? How we can conclude it?


Q:   On the day of Pentecost, in which language did the apostle Peter speak when he preached to the many Jews who spoke in other languages?


Q:   If Jesus is God, why did He always refer to the Father as God? How can Jesus be worshipped as God when He called Himself the Son of God?


Q:   Jesus said in Matthew 28:19 "Baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit," but in Acts 2:38, Peter said, "Be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ." If we follow the Apostles' doctrine, why do we baptize in the name of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit rather than in the name of Jesus Christ?


Q:   Please explain the mystery of the Trinity. Is Jesus one of the three deities or is Jesus God the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit?


Q:   Where is the authority for offering the Lord's Supper both on Sunday morning and Sunday evening? I certainly don't want to add to the gospel of Jesus Christ when we're told not to in His word.


Q:   Is viewing pornography fornication? The word (pornography) comes from the Greek word "porneia" which is translated fornication. There is no question that it is sin, but is using pornography itself fornication?


Q:  It is becoming commonplace in some churches that, at the conclusion of singing or a speech or such performance, someone says, "Let's give them a hand," and everyone applauds. Is this proper conduct in worship?
