Our reading through the New Testament has generated more questions than usual, so I’ll answer two today instead of one:
Q1: One of my favorite CLCers writes: “My question comes from Israel’s response to Pilate when they chose Jesus to be crucified in Matthew 27:25 - Did Israel curse themselves?  Is this also generational curses?  Is this [...]

One of my personal intercessors asks, “I have a question for you from Acts 21:4, when Paul was sailing to Jerusalem they landed in Tyre for a week. While there they stayed with some believers and those disciples prophesied through the Holy Spirit that Paul should not go on to Jerusalem. But Paul was led [...]

One of my favorite CLCers writes, “I actually have a question posed by a friend.  She wants to know do animals have souls?  She says when you look in their eyes they don’t seem souless.  If you believe the “Darwin’s” theory then how could you say Apes don’t have souls if we evolved from them.”
Hmmmm….seems [...]

One of our CLC-Lisle members writes, In Numbers chapter 22 when Balak’s emissaries come for the second round of pleading, Balaam first informs them that he will not oppose God for any ammont of money, and then seeks Gods guidance on the matter. In his dream/vision God the TELLS him to go with the men but [...]

An anonymous CLCer submitted a couple of Bible questions via a connection card:
Q1: “Where was Daniel when Shadrach, Meschach & Abednego were in the fiery furnace?”
Good question.  I don’t know. The Bible doesn’t mention where Daniel was specifically – but the reason the three men were put into the furnace was because of specific accusations [...]

Gonna answer two questions today to relieve the backlog:
Q1: A CLC-Lisle leader asks about ’spiritual blindness’ in John 9:41.  “Is this symbolic in saying that those who don’t know Jesus, will not be judged guilty?”
Let’s look at the passage.  Jesus was addressing the Pharisees, who thought they knew it all, and basically telling them they [...]

Got a little backlog with several questions submitted of late, so I’m going to answer two today:
Q1: One of my favorite CLCers writes, “In Genesis 32 Jacob wrestled with a man.  This man told him in verse 28, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, It is now Israel, because you have struggled with both [...]

One of our faithful CLCers writes, “In the third service on 1/10/10 you stated that the early church changed the day that they assembled themselves together to Sunday, the first day of the week. What is the scripture verse that you use to support that statement? I have a good friend who is Messianic and [...]

One of my favorite CLCers asks, “Can you explain Proverbs 26, verse 4 and Proverbs 26, verse 5?  They seem to be contradictory.  Am I over-thinking it?
Great question!  This passage had me stumped, so I don’t think you’re over-thinking it at all.  I’m indebted to my Spirit-Filled Life Bible (my favorite for study purposes) for this helpful [...]

So many of you have been asking for help with the Daniel fast, not knowing what or how to prepare meals with only fruits & vegetables, so I’ve got GOOD NEWS for you!
Not only are their recipes on our website (click here) and at another site we’ve recommended (click here), but last night I learned [...]
