Barbara Ann Reynolds Adultery injures the innocent party in so many ways. I've been present as an RN when we had to tell the wife that she had an STD from an unfaithful husband. Breaks my heart.

The answering process … You are not alone

January 4th, 2015
Gina Cook January 3 at 11:05pm Is it just me or is it the "easy" questions that take the most time to answer? I don't know how many times after reading the "easy" question I'm like, "oh I've got this!" and then when I go to answer it I just sit there dazed and confused, typing and deleting, typing and deleting, typing and deleting and praying for God to take the block out of my head. OH and those times I spend hours answering a question only to reread it CORRECTLY right before I get ready to send it off- realizing I . . .

Questioner Thank You

MeLissa LeFleur Houdmann January 3, 2015 at 3:26pm This nice note came in today! "Hi there my name is Wynter and I'm 17 years old. I have been raised Lutheran and have been attending private school all my life. Sometimes I do get a million questions running through my mind as to why I believe what I do. And then I come up with reasons I shouldn't or things that just don't click in my mind about things in the bible. Literally almost every question I have is on your got questions website.

Laurel J. Davis January 3 at 7:11pm · Los Angeles, CA A public THANK YOU to the GQ editorial staff for the opportunity to answer a question about E. Bernard Jordan in particular and seeking "prophetic counsel" in general. I honestly don't know why I felt so strongly compelled to answer this one. I don't know why I'm so close to tears about it. Although I have seen enough of Jordan on TV and enough instances of false prophecy, I have no personal experience with Jordan or with false prophets. Please pray with me for the . . .

Theology Discussion – Calvinism, Arminianism, Molinism

January 4th, 2015
Steve Ray Webb January 3, 2015 at 5:49am I have always rejected a rigid Calvinist approach to salvation because it conflicts with all the Scriptures that place emphasis on personal responsibility, both in preaching the Gospel and in receiving it. But similarly, I have always rejected a rigid Arminian approach to salvation because it limits or reduces God's omniscience. To give it a label, I guess this puts me in the Molinist camp of taking a position somewhere in the middle (described pretty well in the article below . . .

Q&A on lust … is it possible in marriage?

January 4th, 2015
Jed Kramer January 3, 2015 at 12:03am I'm working on a question and found myself in a gray area. It deals with the sin of lust. My response relates lust to covetousness. Desiring your spouse is not sin because you have committed yourselves to each other before God and others (wedding). You can't covet what is yours. An unmarried person entertaining thoughts of desire for another person is sinning. What about engagement and betrothal? Does Song of Songs suggest that entertaining such thoughts is okay for a betrothed couple? . . .
