The 3 Questions Podcast

1. During a Sunday night family dinner, my 4-year-old grandson asked why God created annoying insects??  Like mosquitos and flys....No one at the table had an answer. As annoying as fly's are they do have a purpose...they do complete the circle of life.  But what about mosquitos, ticks, fleas, etc.

2. Part 1: As a believer how can I vote for a candidate that doesn’t stand for anything I believe. I always thought that you should vote for a person and not the party. But this year it is extremely difficult to find anything worth voting for. Part 2: How can our Christian legislators support some of the candidates who are so anti-Christian.

3. I have heard that not all songs on Christian radio are right and true in their lyrics. How do I evaluate if the words in any given worship song are good or not?

1. I know that when scripture repeats something, it is supposed to get our attention for emphasis. As I’ve been reading in Proverbs, it has been repeated that it is better to live on the corner of a rooftop (in the desert, etc.) than with a quarrelsome wife. What is the application of this repeated Proverb (21:19; 27:15-16)?

2. How should I navigate the world of phones and devices with my young kids?

3. Why did Jesus never write any part of the Bible?

1. I was having a discussion with someone about Bible Versions. He is of the school of thinking that the King James is the only inerrant and infallible word of God. He proceeded to tell me that the ESV is missing verses such as Matthew 18:11. Do you have any insight on this topic for me?

2. I am struggling to get myself out of bed to have devotional time with God. How should I approach this obstacle?

1. As a Christian whose sins are already forgiven through the finished work of Christ, is it wrong to ask forgiveness for indwelling sin as I continue to grow? Should I focus on “confessing and repenting” of continual sin, as opposed to asking “forgiveness”?

2. How do the Bible and science relate to each other? Specifically regarding origin of the universe, and age of the earth, and evolutionary processes?) 

I’ve never had a problem believing in creation and believing in science.  My God made man and my God created science as well.  He is big enough to have done both. The Bible doesn’t tell us everything about creation, it doesn’t tell us how long a day was.  It could have been 24 hours. It could have been 24,000 years.  I live in Norman, there is a museum of natural history right down the street.  To deny that the dinosaurs existed seems almost ludicrous.  Why isn’t more said about how the Bible and science are related and how one offers explanations for the other.  After Doug’s sermon last Sunday this and other related questions seem to be popping into my brain.  I don’t believe that I was formed when two molecules accidentally collided in a pool of mud.   But if that’s how God wanted to do it, who am I to question.  I believe the Bible is the infallible word of God.  Why can’t we use it to help explain science.

3. Believing that there are lessons to be learned from Church history, both for good and for bad, what is a favorite story/lesson from the Christians that have gone before us?
