For the first three weeks of November this year, I\u2019m teaching a series called \u201cYou Asked for It\u201d<\/a> at Oak Tree Community Church<\/a>. We asked our congregation to submit questions that they wanted me to answer during the series. Their questions could be about a Bible passage they don\u2019t understand, a Biblical topic they want more information about, or something in the culture they wonder if the Bible addresses.<\/p>

You can listen to the first message online<\/a> or download the MP3<\/a> to hear how I answered these three hard-hitting questions to kick off the series:<\/p>

Is tithing still for today?<\/p>

If Adam and Eve were the first people and Cain was their first son, who did Cain marry? Seth is mentioned as a son of Adam following the death of Abel. Prior to that Cain tells God he is afraid of what the \u201cother people\u201d will do to him. It doesn\u2019t seem to mention Adam and Eve having many other children. Where did they all come from?<\/p>

What does the Bible teach about homosexuality? Is it a choice, or are you born with tendencies to it? Is there victory for it?<\/p><\/blockquote>

So, how would you answer these if someone asked you?<\/strong><\/p>

I\u2019ll tackle more this week. Join us and bring a friend \u2013 everyone has questions.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
