Sure, I'll Answer That!

After hundreds of blogs, about 500 between Kingdom Bloggers and Fire & Grace, I thought it might be fun if my readers asked questions that I could answer. Yeah, I know, its sort of lame, but I need a topic for next week. Maybe you want to know what Bible translation I read, or what brand of toothpaste I use? Who knows, maybe you want to know more about the End Times, tough scriptures, or how awesome my wife is - it's up to you.

I should be able to answer most questions in an upcoming blog. If you write a blog, I'll be sure to add a link to it and give you a not so shameless plug.

Until then, I have some questions for you to ponder:

Why isn't phonetic spelled the way it sounds?

Why are there interstate highways in Hawaii?

Why are there flotation devices under plane seats instead of parachutes?

If you can't drink and drive, why do you need a driver's license to buy liquor?

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

How does the guy who drives the snowplow get to work in the mornings?

If 7-11 is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, why are there locks on the doors?

If a cow laughed real hard, would milk come out her nose?

If nothing ever sticks to Teflon, how do they make Teflon stick to the pan?

If you tied buttered toast to the back of a cat and dropped it from a height, what would happen?

If you're in a vehicle going the speed of light, what happens when you turn on the headlights?

If a black box in a plane is indestructible, why can't they make the whole plane out of it?

What do sheep count when they can't get to sleep?

When you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn?

Is there another word for thesaurus?

Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny?

If there is no God, who pops up the next Kleenex in the box?

I know that you claim that you can't argue to god using reason, etc, but surely you must have some reason for belief in your particular religious faith vs. any other, correct? What is that reason and why is it compelling? Further, do you have any reasons that you feel are compelling coming from you but are not compelling coming from someone with a different set of beliefs?

How important are rituals? Or are they important at all? If so, what is the one that you can't live without.
Do you believe when we died we immediately go to heaven or do we wait for the resurrection? If we wait, where do we wait?

David:

Are you a pre tribulationist ( Jesus comes at the beginning of tribulation and takes up His church) or Post tribulationist ( Jesus comes at the end of the tribulations and then takes up his church)?

Why is vanilla ice cream white when vanilla beans are actually dark brown?

Did Lazarus get a refund on his burial expenses?

Do Asian people get English words tattooed on their bodies?

The reason we have interstates in Hawaii is quite simple...that's a way for the federal gov't to spend more money for 'defense' purposes which is the original reason for the interstate system. Grrrrrrr!

What is your vision for the perfect church?

I trust that you believe in Biblical infallibility, that the Bible is true for matters of the spirit.

What are your thoughts on Biblical inerrancy, that all details of the Bible are completely true, and that contradictions do not exist?

How often do you speak in tongues?
Do you understand any of the words you speak in tongues? Have you ever translated anyone else speaking in tongues? Has anyone translated your speaking in tongues?
This was the first thing that came to my mind.
David I will always remember when you came to Cincinnati to visit an old friend of yours along with other believers and we all had such a great time in the Spirit.
And I will always remember what you told me about me. That I am a 'seer' in the prophetic. And I have found that mostly to be true.
I was kind of new in the things of the Spirit back then and that time helped me and what you said encouraged me.
God has truly blessed you abundantly, you are one of the most gifted people I know. I am not trying to flatter you and did not even plan to say this, but I am being led to.
I am so sorry that I don't get to read all your blogs lately. I have been so busy with the Christian Chronic Illness Site I am involved in and keeping up with the people there and leading a chat for those with mental illness. And it is a help to me too.
Thank you for all you do for the Kindgdom. I am sure you are gonna hear "Well done though good and faithful servant"
May the Spirit come down on you as you read this, as He did as I got to writing the end of this.
Fire ! Fire Fall !
I didn't know I could get hit with the Spirit while posting a comment. How fun is that ! By now most people reading this think I am crazy. Crazy for Jesus !

Mad Libs: An Unforgettable Church Service

Hopefully you have heard of Mad Libs (R) ! They are stories that you blindly fill in the blanks for articles of grammar and then read the completed story. Since I was a kid, these have always been a hoot. I decided to make up my own. Just fill in the blanks next time you are at small group and then read it back. It is sure to shake up a few religious spirits. An Unforgettable Church Service We arrived at _________ ( time of day ) at the Church of the Holy _________ ( noun ).

God is Great, Beer is Good, and People are Crazy

There was a discussion on Facebook today about how some people think Christians are "whack jobs." Regardless, God is still great. I don't really know much about beer. I haven't had one in just about 30 years. There are a lot of folks that consider themselves to be Christian. Some because they do good, and others because they have faith in God or are born again-- and others because they grew up in a Christian denomination. Far be it from me to decide who is in, and who is out. Some say we'll be surprised at who is going to be there, and others say who think they are in will be surprised when they are rejected at the Pearly Gates. Hmmm... But let's say you are a real Christian who is feeling passionate about doing something for God. You know something beyond throwing a few bucks in the offering plate and trying to be a good person. The church calls it service or ministry, which could include such things as: reading scriptures on Sunday morning, planning a harves...

5 1/2 The Home Group Experience

For years I have attended small groups, or home fellowships as they are sometimes called. They are an interesting blend of intimacy, arm chair theology and the real Jesus. Here is my take on the anatomy of a home or small group meeting -1 Worship: This is the time when we tell the Lord how much we love him in song. We praise him as the wight of the world lifts off our shoulders and we come into the presence of Almighty God. Err - get something to drink, take a large handful of chocolate covered pretzels because we skipped dinner, and make a plan for the soft couch instead of the miniature folding chairs from kids church. -2 Unofficial Potty Break: On the 15th chorus of I Could Sing of Your Love Forever (how come no one dances to that song?) it's a good time to beat the rush. Beware, once someone gets up, it is a sign for others to make their moves for the coffee pot, the peanut dish and the brownies. It is a li...
