A caller has a family member who is Catholic and has asked other family members (who are now born again) to pray three Hail Marys for him. The caller is concerned about this.
What is the description of a body that goes to heaven and one that goes to hell?
A listener in Texas was originally taught the ten commandments as a youth in catholic sunday school. They list #9 as “do not covet your neighbors goods” and #10 as “do not covet your neighbors wife”. Then as an adult I heard that these are really just one commandment and are the real #10, but that the catholics leave out the real #2 which is “do not make for yourselves an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above…” and then make up for it by splitting #10 into two commandments. What about people who have paintings and ceramic statues of angels in their house for decorations? What about paintings of Jesus like the one where His coat of many colors is made of all the flags of the world?
A listener injured himself and a charismatic friend is criticizing him for not praying for a “healing miracle” The caller also is avoiding pain killers because he is concerned about the fact that pharmacoea may have some association with sorcery.
A father wants to know what the Scripture says about dating and kissing before marriage. This Christian man has a 13 1/2 year old daughter (who has professed Christ) and he can tell that she’s getting interested in boys, dating and maybe even kissing a boy. Also, does Pastor Broggi or Audrey have a message/series on this subject?
A listener in Pensacola is attending an Independent Baptist church that uses a book entitled “Simple Church” by Rainer and Geiger as a guide. The book’s authors believe that program driven churches these days are too worker intensive and thus recommend some programs be dropped. This listener’s very church has dropped Awana and come January they plan to cease Sunday School classes. The book bases this move from Acts 2 and is pushing small group meetings. Although the listener likes small groups they have been convicted about this because they believe some programs have been quite helpful. They are looking for Pastor Broggi’s thoughts on this.
