From the Show

We should have joy in worship, but we should also have reverence. There is nothing wrong with celebration and loud shouts of joy. But in 1 Corinthians 14, Paul also asks that things be done decently and in order for the edification of everyone.

If David Danced for the Lord in Worship, Should We?

Questions in this Episode

  1. What is the prayer language that Paul talks about in 1 Corinthians?
  2. Did the Apostle Paul ever speak with Jesus face to face?
  3. Is it biblical to dance before the Lord in a worship service because David danced before the Lord?
  4. If we agree on how we are saved, why can’t we agree on our views of the end times?

Is It Wrong to Make Images of Jesus?

Because many Christians today have grown accustomed to seeing Jesus depicted by actors, in paintings, and in drawings, many are surprised to find out that there are Christians who object to depicting Jesus and even consider it idolatry.
