Why Didn’t God Start Humanity Over Right Away by Destroying Adam and Eve?
Questions about why God didn’t start humanity over right away by destroying Adam and Eve instead of waiting for the flood, whether another fall will be possible in the new creation (and what that means for our free will), and why God didn’t make us “fall-proof” from the beginning.
-
What Does Boasting in Our Weaknesses Look Like?
Questions about what the Bible means by “boasting in our weaknesses” (2 Cor. 12:7–10), what it means to “sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts” (1 Pet. 3:13–15), and whether giving our lives to Christ means we can’t have other interests besides God.
-
How Could God Kill All the Firstborn Babies in the Tenth Plague?
Questions about how God could kill all the firstborn babies in the tenth plague, how to respond to someone who says God committed genocide when he destroyed the earth during the flood, and whether God still creates calamity today as it says in Isaiah 45:7.
-
Does the Bible Say That Someday Everyone Will Worship God?
Questions about whether the Bible says that someday everyone in the world will worship God, the purpose of worshiping God, and whether it might be the case that God has created another universe where that creation also gives him glory.
-
Is Post-Mortem Salvation an Orthodox Doctrine?
Questions about whether post-mortem salvation is an orthodox doctrine, reconciling a verse about God removing our transgressions from us with verses about each of us having to give an account to God on judgment day, and how to recognize true conviction of sin by the Holy Spirit.
-
Doesn’t Acts Argue That Not All Believers Receive the Holy Spirit?
Questions about why we should think the new believers in Acts 5:14 received the Holy Spirit when Acts seems to argue that not all believers necessarily receive the Spirit and whether “Holy Ghost” is a degrading term for the Holy Spirit.

Thoughtful responses to tough questions
Amy and Greg are a great team and always do a great job unpacking difficult topics
Wonderful Response
I sent in a question recently that Greg and Amy answered thoroughly and thoughtfully. They are such a gift to the kingdom and I am so thankful to have come across this ministry!
I love Greg and Amy
They are a great resource. They have helped me in witnessing to people, thinking more clearly about scriptures and identifying faulty logic with myself and others.
