​​7:21 What's your view on parents who name their children "Jesus" as their first name. is that allowed?

37:38 ​​What does the Bible say about listening to music? Is all music ok for christians?
39:17 Should the gift of prophecy be kept in the local church and not the national level? I’ve seen far too many “prophets” make these bold claims on a national level and be horribly wrong.
​​41:28 Happy St. Stephen's Day! In view of the severity of Jesus's scourging, why do you believe Pilate was surprised at Him dying so soon (Mark 15.44), given that many prisoners succumbed to scourging alone?
44:44 ​​Is there any truth to the notion that Moses was denied entry into the Promised Land because of the Israelites' idolatrous nature, not because of anything Moses did?

56:28 After the Rapture, where will those believers who were taken up be during the Millennium? Will they return to earth to reign with Jesus, or will they remain in heaven?

1:01:43 Is the book of Job meant to show us a change in his theology, or am I reading it wrong? Like a rebuttal to works-based faith?
1:02:28 My brother in law has shown interest in seeking God. Would Mere Christianity by C.S Lewis be a good introduction to the Lord?

God is so good and that's so encouraging. Everyone needs to be edified with God's river of life. Amen

[jameswelsh]

May God's blessings always be upon you!

[katherine]

So enjoy each of these, the app, and ministry to teach the Word in a clear way, whether new to mature believers in Christ Jesus. You keep yourself and the ministry under God; humility is evident. ❤

[Wretched-man-that-I-am]

Thanks for all your hard work, brother David! Blessings, may the new year find you in good health.

[ettamargason]

The Book of Proverbs would be Great!!!❤❤❤

[leomartinez]

Thank Pastor Guzik. I really enjoy your teaching on leviticus. I'm following along, but I was wondering why you skipped Exodus? I followed you through Genisis as well. Love Enduring Word. ❤❤

[Bijbelstudies]

Do you travel through Europe?
I am from Holland, the Netherlands and would be glad to meet you in person.

Blessings,

Henry van der Burgh

[blessedhope]

Was wondering what bible translation you use? Love Enduring Word and your morning verse devotional. 🙏❤✝️

[taylorchaney]

I love your teaching! My husband I have been studying your teaching on acts.
We have been wanting to know more about the spiritual gifts ex) speaking in tongues.
We have never experienced this gift. Why? And how?

Hi pastor David Guzik and Enduring Word team.
I know this was a live video but I would like to ask something please:
I am reading the book of Daniel and I like to compare to a time line chart I have. I am looking that it says in Daniel 9:1 KJV
[1] In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;

But Darius was not the son of Ahasuerus. He was another Darius or another Ahasuerus? He is the same Ahasueros of the book of Esther?

Thank you very much. Greetings from Yucatán, México.

[rosemaryabeldano]

Hello brother.I have a question I was baptized in the name of the father son and the holy Spirit and my question is I have a friend who has told me that I should get re-baptized in the in the name of Jesus only and I told her with all respect and kindness that I feel that I should not get re-baptized she really didn't like what I said because she really believes that I should get baptized because to fulfill righteousness and I told her Jesus is my righteousness. So my question is do you agree with what I told her or wha?

[withlovestephaniedenise]

If God said instituted marriage as one man and one woman, why did he allow multiple wives, and why did he give Saul's wives to David?

[junebug]

What are your thoughts on a female pursuing a predominantly male profession like becoming a mechanic. Is this in anyway in conflict with God wanting our genders to be observably distinct from one another ? .

[maureensalinas]

I’ve heard tell of 100 years after the 1000. Sorry for the confusion.

[tmcge]

All lies....the Lord is *clear* read Matthew 13:37-50 even John 6:54 and Paul? Hebrews 9:26-28 and the great and terrible day of the Lord is Revelation 18:4 kjv.

You can point out 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 but what does verses 15 & 17 say? Matthew 24:27-31 kjv

Revelation 3:10-12....turn to Revelation 18 and when does New Jerusalem come? The end!

You will die....you will be judged and it all happen "in that day" the Day ofthe Lord, the end, last day @ the last trumpet.

Peace!
