From the Show

The beautiful thing is that there is going to be an innumerable group of people “from every tribe and tongue and nation,” that is what the book of Revelation tells us, and it is not on the basis of whether or not we were elite super-Christians, it is on the basis that we are washed in the blood of the Lamb.

–Adriel Sanchez

Questions in this Episode

1. I have a coworker who is an atheist. I invited her to church, but she said that she had bad experiences as a child because she is also lesbian. She said Christians told her God hates gay people and gay people aren’t welcome in church. How do I continue to show Jesus to her without seeming too pushy or turning her off to God even more?

2. I struggle with my salvation and the fruits of obedience. I used to think it was as simple as just trusting in Jesus, but it doesn’t seem that way anymore. How do I know that I have the right fruit or enough evidence to prove that I’m saved?

3. Who are the 144,000 in the book of Revelation?
