Biblical Question and Answer Session #5

Some of the questions dealt with tonight:

1. My question is a two-part one. The first part is would you encourage single parents who believe they are called to overseas missions to go? The second part is how would you encourage them? I ask because I am a single mother missionary. When the Lord first put the call in my soul I researched the idea of single parent missionary and honestly found nothing positive. All the encouragement I received was from the Lord, His word, my pastors, my family in Christ, and missionary biographies.

2. I am struggling to get control over my thoughts and be able to clearly read the Scriptures.

3. Pastor Tim, I malpractice in an exam by asking help for help, should I set that right? I repeatedly had thoughts of discouragement regarding the matter and was about to set it right. I prayed about it and was about to send the apology email, just before that I asked my brother in Christ he told me to wait and pray and later advised it is not required. I left it as he said but now I get condemned. Should I set it right now? Please help.

4. Pastor Tim, My husband, and I have been attending a church for about three years now. The Lord saved me about 4 years ago and immediately as I studied the bible on my own, the Holy Spirit led me to the doctrines of grace. Our church is one that holds to the Carnal Christian or no-Lordship doctrine of salvation. I consider this false teaching of which I can no longer be a part. But my husband is still very involved, good friends with the pastor, and does not see this as I do. I really need your help, it seems I have 3 choices, one, I stay and continue to belong to this church. Two, leave, and do not go to church..
