Wealth Transfer
The "Great Wealth Transfer" lacks biblical basis and often benefits only prosperity preachers.
Be generous with current resources, not hypothetical future wealth.

God's Holiness and Judgment
God's judgment in Nahum 3 reflects his holiness and the severity of Nineveh's sins.

1. 0:02 {What is Hades Like?} Looking at Luke 16:19-31 (Rich Man and Lazarus), what does this parable teach us about the afterlife, and how literally should the depiction in that passage of Heaven and Hell be taken? 2. 33:27 {Making Decisions “From Faith”} Is there a difference between indecisiveness and doing things “not from faith” (Romans 14:23)? I struggle to make decisions and feel guilty about doing things without being 100% sure it’s God’s will. 3. 46:03 {The Great Wealth Transfer} What is your opinion on the movement of "The Great Wealth Transfer" that prosperity preachers teach, where believers obtain unbelievers’ land and wealth? 4. 51:09 {Difficult OT Passages} Nahum 3:5-6 is hard for me to reconcile with our holy and loving God. Can you help me understand this? 5. 1:00:21 {Praying Biblically in Dire Situations} Is it a lack of faith in me to not pray for a miraculous healing for a fatal diagnosis in my baby I’m carrying, and instead be praying primarily for strength, comfort, and peace? 6. 1:05:38 {Does Jesus NOW Know?} Did Jesus’ limits He placed on Himself while on Earth disappear once He resurrected/exalted to Heaven (Matthew 24:36, No one knows the day or the hour except the Father)? Could Jesus know now? 7. 1:10:22 {Should Morality be Legislated?} How do I respond to a Christian who thinks things (like abortion and transgenderism) are wrong but that they shouldn’t vote to have the government legislate against it to restrain/correct non-Christians (forcing it on them)? 8. 1:17:10 {Avoiding the “Barn Building” Attitude} I feel the need/desire to make good money - that it's necessary to feel secure, to be a provider, and yes - to have some nice things (a house, vacations, etc.). Am I the Luke 12 barn builder? 9. 1:24:07 {Spiritual Significance of The Election?} What do you think of invoking biblical figures like David, Cyrus, and Jehu when talking about President-elect Trump? Does his election have spiritual significance? 10. 1:27:39 {Let “US” Make Man in “OUR” Image?} In Genesis 1:26 God said, "Let us make man in our image." Who is the “us” He’s talking about?
