In this episode, we will look at some Bible questions that were recently submitted to our web site, biblequestions.org. Some of the questions we will answer are: "I have a friend that claims he talks to his dead wife regularly. What does the Bible say about this?" "If everything that God created was ""very good"" (Gen 1:31) why are some people born with mental and physical defects, dwarfs (midgets) etc.? Examples: tall - short, heavy set – thin, attractive – unattractive, wealthy – poor, etc." "What does it mean; no one comes to the father except if he's drawn?" "How can I know if I have the Holy Spirit in me? What are the outward signs?"

The term "Stewardship" may not be familiar to some, but it is simply the responsible management of something entrusted to one's care. As human beings and Christians, God expects us to responsibly manage our lives and everything He has blessed us with. In this episode, we will consider the following: God's expectations towards our physical possessions, such as money, our house, etc. The principle that everything belongs to God God's expectations towards our spiritual possessions, our talents and abilities, our family, etc. Questions that have been submitted on this subject biblequestions.org

Evangelist Alan Hitchen joins us to discuss this final exam and consider what the Bible teaches us about it. www.biblequestions.org
