Notas del episodio
Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:
0:00 - Intro
1. 0:18 {Hell: Traditional vs. Conditional?} What is Mike’s perspective on the topic of Hell?
2. 26:14 {Marriage, Heaven & Vows} Regarding 1 Timothy 5:11-12, if there is no marriage in Heaven, and when a spouse dies we’re free to remarry, how then does a young widow break her first vow?
3. 33:34 {Purpose of the Tree of Life} If we were created as eternal beings, then what purpose did the Tree of Life hold in the Garden of Eden?
4. 36:00 {Matthew 6 – But Poverty?} How do we reconcile Matthew 6:25-33 with the reality of poverty? I'm comfortable saying "even He doesn't, God is still good" but this passage sounds almost Word-of-Faith.
5. 44:13 {Purgatory in the Book of Matthew?} I've been curious about the word “until” or “till” in Matthew 18:34. Does this imply purgatory?
6. 50:57 {Jesus Given a Higher Name?} New believer here, and my question is, since Jesus is YHWH, why is He given the name above every other name in Philippians 2? What does that mean?
7. 56:46 {Can All Believers Prophesy?} Does 1 Corinthians 14:31 mean all believers can prophesy? If all can teach in some way without being teachers (i.e., teaching their children), can all prophesy without being prophets?
8. 59:37 {Hyperbole in Scripture} The Sermon on the Mount has some hyperbole (cut off your hand). How do you know what is hyperbole and what isn't, specifically regarding anger?
9. 1:05:08 {Does God Use our Sin?} Do you believe that God uses the consequences/results of a sin for His own purposes, like a one night stand resulting in a child? A reference could be Joseph and his brothers.
10. 1:08:07 {How/Why was Jesus Amazed?} Matthew 8:5-13 says that Jesus was amazed at the centurion's faith. In other places in the New Testament, Jesus knew the thoughts of the Pharisees. If Jesus could read thoughts, how could He be amazed?
Kirk Cameron's recent video has been like a match to dry grass, igniting a debate about Hell that has been building for some time now. Since a number of people are putting my name in the mix (and misunderstanding my own position), I want to bring clarity and also offer some advice for us all to lower the temperature on Hell. Sorry, the puns just come.
