Today's Timestamps:
1. 0:19 {Would They Abort Jesus?} What are four Bible verses to learn, to support the pro-live position? Would they have aborted Jesus back in history, based on current cultural reasoning we hear?
2. 21:43 {Sins Against Us or Just God?} If someone commits a sin against you (abuse, etc.), are you also owed justice? Can Jesus forgive the justice you are owed, or was the sin committed only against God and not you (the sinner is now saved)?
3. 29:54 {Choosing Between Two Churches} What would you do if you had to choose between a Calvinist leaning church and a church that believed women could be elders? Both churches are otherwise healthy and doctrinally sound.
4. 33:14 {Interpreting the “High Places”} How should we understand the "high places"? 2 Chronicles 15: 17 and other passages condemn the kings for not tearing them down, but in 1 Samuel 9: 12, Samuel attends and blesses a sacrifice at a high place.
5. 44:43 {Processing Past Relationship Issues} My wife had several partners before our marriage. I wasn’t around, but I feel like I have to forgive the men. Am I being weird? How do I bring this to God, because I'm still losing sleep 10 years later?
6. 49:02 {Different Translations = Different Meanings?} Why does 1 Samuel 13:1 have different meanings in different translations (like the NKJV and NIV)?
7. 58:25 {Is the Holy Spirit All-Knowing?} Does Matthew 24: 36 imply that the Holy Spirit doesn't know everything? How does that work if the Holy Spirit is God? I've been struggling with the Trinity lately.
8. 1:04:36 {Submitting to a Non-Christian Husband?} How should a newly Christian woman apply Ephesians 5: 22 and Colossians 3: 18 when her husband has not yet come to Christ and is not supportive of her conversion?
9. 1:10:46 {Galatians: The Meaning of “Quickly”} When the Galatians quickly deserted the Gospel (Galatians 1:6), did "quickly" refer to the time after Paul left to when they heard false teaching, or how easily they turned once they heard false teaching?
10. 1:15:19 {Historical Data: Biblical Christianity} Is there any historical data on biblical Christianity outside the Catholic Church before the Reformation?
Bonus Q! 1:21:59 What’s your favorite Star Wars film?

I'm taking questions from the live chat… here are the rules...
I do this live stream most Fridays at 1 p.m. Pacific Time. You're welcome to join.
To ask a question, you'll need to follow these instructions:
- Don't post your question before you see me live on camera.
- Post questions as comments in the LIVE chat at the beginning of the stream.
- Post your question with "Q" at the beginning so we can easily identify that you are sending it in as a question for me and not just a comment in the chat.
- Try to be as clear as possible so I won't misunderstand the question. Keep in mind that I don't know anything about your question other than what you type in that short comment.
- Include specific verse references when possible or applicable.
- Only one question submitted per subscriber, per stream, please. Submitting the same question into the chat a few times is OK.
- Please understand that we don't strictly take the first 10 questions submitted. Our team takes several factors into consideration.
- You can also check the "Clip Search" on BibleThinker.org in advance to see if your topic of interest has already been covered in a past session. I try not to answer the same questions over and over, so you may find what you need there.
My website is searchable and all the video and audio content is free:
