Ask Adam
Why did it take exactly three days for Jesus’s resurrection. And why was he only given 40 days to walk on earth with his disciples and to preach the gospel before returning to heaven?
In Mark 9: 49 Jesus is teaching His disciples, warns them of he'll and says everyone will be salted with fire. What does he mean? Is he talking about the fire of hell or the fire of the holy spirit, or something else? - Leslie
How does one reconcile Jesus’s statement of having only one commandment, “love one another”… vs the many written instructions from the Apostle Paul on how to live appropriately on the day-to-day like: put on the whole armor of God, pray without ceasing, avoid laziness, do everything decently in and in order … etc. With Jesus it seems all is settled with love - but with Paul painting the portrait Christianity seems like a lot of work!
Q for Pastor Jessica - How have you been able to stay home and raise 7 children in the Valley?
In the book of exodus why did god purposely hardened pharaoh’s heart when it came to letting the Israelites go even after pharaoh was shown gods power with all the different plagues that took place?
Are the laws that God wrote in the book of exodus specifically books 21-23 are those considered to be outdated laws or are those still applied to today seeing how they talk about how to treat Israel slaves and ownership over different animals like donkeys and oxen.
What caused the devil to turn against god. And how can a divine being like Lucifer feel the need to rebel and commit sin even though he was an angel does this mean that even divine beings like angels have similar emotions and characteristics like humans?
What do you think of the theory that the serpent beasts in the ocean mentioned in the bible or in some translations “dragons” are the dinosaur bones that archeologists have found seeing that we have found some aquatic dinosaur bones?

To you, what’s the difference between letting go and trusting God (and moving on in your prayer life to other things in confidence God has the situation), and letting the enemy win out of exhaustion in prayer and just “giving in to him”?

Ask Adam About the Bible
In the book of Daniel, after they were sent to Babylon, we learn that some Israelites were given new names by the Babylonian officials. Daniel was given the name Belteshazzar; Hananiah, Shadrach; Mishael, Meshach; and Azariah, Abednego. But for the rest of the book Daniel is referred to by his original name but the other are always refer to by they Babylonian names. Why do you believe this was done? - Ryan (APP)
Hello guys, What are your thoughts on 1 Samuel 28:1-25? Where Saul uses a medium to talk with Samuel. Did God allow a medium to summon Samuel? Mediums and necromancers were strictly forbidden… it’s part of the Law of Moses… Saul even kicked them out of the land. For a medium to Summon a major prophet as Samuel… what’s going on here? Thanks - Brandon G (APP)

Ask Adam About the Bible
Do you think The Book of Revelation or any of the New Testament was written after 70 AD, after Harod’s Temple and Jerusalem were destroyed? - Ryan (Nov)
Why in the beginning of the Bible is the devil considered a serpent and in the end he is a dragon? Could it be he has been eating from the dust of the Earth like he was cursed to do? What’s your take? - Isaiah
We know at least one of the disciples' deaths was not cannon - how are their deaths confirmed? - Sam

Even though I believe that water baptism is a big part of our walk with the Lord, There are several scriptures that tell us that John baptized in water unto repentance , but Jesus came to Baptize us with the Holy Ghost and fire. In Ephesians it tells us there is one Lord, one Faith, one baptism. What is the one baptism, The one from John or Jesus? I’m not disputing water baptism, just curious. - Dorothy, App
Of the 2 gospels that chronicle the Xmas story which do you give more credence to?? - Jon from San Antonio (Dec)
In honor of the Christmas Season, I have a question about a prophecy of Jesus from Isaiah 9:6. I think that part of the reason that the jewish people do not believe Jesus is the Messiah is the part that says, “and the government shall be upon his shoulder…” they believe the Messiah will be a military leader or king. What do you believe was meant by this passage about the government on his shoulders? - Ryan (Dec)
