The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

What does it mean to "fight the good fight of faith"? Will believers have to answer for every idle word? What does Galatians mean by "severed from Christ" and "fallen from grace"?

Did Satan really "persuade" God, talking Him into allowing Job to be tempted? How do I "contend for the faith" (Jude 3) with the Mennonites and other communities steeped in tradition? What kingdoms of the world have been delivered unto Satan (Luke 4)? What does that mean for God and His place in our nations?

Are we told specifically to remember God and reflect on His attributes? What is "double-mindedness" exactly? My friends are telling me I won't go to heaven, because I don't go to church. Are they right? Is it true that we (the people) are the church? How do we best understand the warnings to the churches in Revelation? What about people who never hear the gospel? And what about babies who pass away?

The Old Testament priests never sat down because the work was never done. Jesus sat down because it was. In this message from Hebrews 10, Andrew Farley exposes the exhausting cycle of repeat confession, progressive forgiveness, and guilt-driven religion; and replaces it with the scandalous truth of the New Covenant. Your sins aren't covered. They're removed. You're not partly sanctified. You're fully set apart. Once for all. Sit down and believe it.

1. Read verses 5–7. What do these verses reveal about the Father's heart and Jesus' willingness?
2. Read verses 8–9. Where do Christians still mix the first covenant with the second, and why is that exhausting?
3. Read verse 10. What changes when holiness (sanctification) is a once-for-all gift, not a lifelong achievement project?
4. Read verses 11-12. What does standing vs. sitting represent here? Which are you doing? Why?
5. Read verse 14. What arises within you when you hear that Jesus made you perfect forever? Objections? Celebration? Why?
6. Read verse 15. How does this shape your view of the Holy Spirit's attitude toward you?
7. Read verses 16–17. How does "sins remembered no more" change how you view yourself with God?
8. Read verse 18. What modern "offerings" do people still bring today when forgiveness is already complete?

Did Satan really "persuade" God, talking Him into allowing Job to be tempted? How do I "contend for the faith" (Jude 3) with the Mennonites and other communities steeped in tradition? What kingdoms of the world have been delivered unto Satan (Luke 4)? What does that mean for God and His place in our nations?

What do you think about R-rated movies, M-rated video games, and heavy metal music? At the rapture, will only Christians hear the trumpet? Are we with Jesus immediately upon our death, or do we sleep and awaken at the rapture?

What does the Parable of the Talents mean? Who does the servant thrown into outer darkness represent? Hebrews 6 warns those who have "tasted" that, if they fall away, they can't find repentance. Who is this warning really for?

What does "obedient from the heart" really mean in Romans 6? Do you think I can baptize my own boys? I still struggle with alcoholism and pornography. Am I missing a truth? Or what's my main problem?

How can God tell us to "go forth and multiply" when humanity is sinful? Isn't that a contradiction? Why does God seem so different in the Old Testament? Will we see our pets again in Heaven?

My father has a short time to live. How can I effectively share the gospel with him when he doesn't seem open? My mother is in a memory care facility, and this has caused a rift between me and my sister. I wonder what to do! Can you explain the "left behind" concept again from Matthew 24 and Luke 17? How often should we do the Lord's Supper? What about claim we shouldn't do it at all?
