Question of the Week: What is spiritual covering?
Verses: Ephesians 5:23

Spiritual covering is a term used to describe a role of authority. In a biblical sense, it’s referring to the role God has to be our protector, provider, and guide through our Christian lives through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Unfortunately, certain groups have taken this principal and twisted it into a different meaning altogether. Cult groups like Shepherding movements will use these terms to claim the Holy Spirit is acting through them as His earthly agent in the lives of believers. The church leaders then demand full authority over a person and every decision they are allowed to make in their lives. This is false. God is the head of the church, not an individual. If you have the opportunity to put your total trust in someone, don’t settle for less than God’s best. Put your faith in God, not in a person who is twisting the scripture for their own self-promotion.

Question of the Week: What political issues should all Bible-believing Christians agree on?
Verses: Genesis 12:1-3, Psalm 139:13-16

Salvation isn’t a political issue. Anyone who puts their trust in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior will be saved no matter who they vote for. However, voting should always be done with an open Bible. There are a number of issues that can be negotiated and shouldn’t be considered issues of conflict between Christians. However, if someone believes the Bible is true, there are two realities they are accepting that should make a direct impact on who they identify with politically. Firstly, being pro-Israel is a non-negotiable. God promised to bless those who bless Israel, and curse those who curse them. Regardless of your view towards the Jewish people, no one who calls themselves Christian should ever call themselves anti-Semitic at the same time. Likewise, another issue that can’t be negotiated biblically or even scientifically is the matter of abortion. God’s word has made it clear that life begins at conception and the taking of that child’s life should never be something a Christian advocates. You can be uninformed on these matters and give the Holy Spirit room to teach you more about what’s really going on, but these are the issues you cannot compromise if you call yourself Christian.

Question of the Week: What does it mean to surrender to God?
Verses: Romans 12:1-3

When the hymns have us sing, “I surrender all,” they make liars of us all. In a practical sense, we will never be able to fully surrender ourselves fully to God. Fortunately, that’s not what God has called us to do in this life. While we will be learning from experience how to trust God more and more, surrendering to God in a personal sense is how that happens. If you begin your day setting aside your desires in favor of His, it’s that kind of heart that He can use. That’s what it means to surrender to God in a biblical sense. If God’s a greater priority to you, then exchanging His will for your own comes naturally.

Question of the Week: How do you know if you should attend one church over another?
Verses: 2 Timothy 3:16-17, 1 Timothy 5:17, 1 Corinthians 14:3

A Church’s responsibility is to minister to and share God’s word with the people of God and anyone else wiling to listen. Different denominations have preferences in how this is to be done apart from others, and some even emphasize the practice of some traditions over others. However, when all is said and done, the responsibility of the church does not change. If you’re looking for a church, find one that teaches God’s word in its entirety. If a church emphasizes this, then their name, denomination, or preferred practices beyond this are all secondary issues.

Question of the Week: How can I pursue reconciliation in a marriage that my actions have damaged?
Verses: Colossians 3:12-17

Trust is the emotional reaction to proven character over time. If your actions have violated the trust of someone else, the only thing you can do to repair that damage is to rebuild from where you started. There will be no progress made if you simply expect someone to be forgiving like a real Christian. You cannot control anyone’s walk with God but your own. If you’re seeking to rebuild trust, then show your spouse your sincerity. Don’t just tell them. Work on growing in your own walk with God, and trust He will have their hearts handled in observing His work in you as you work to rebuilt the trust that you’ve violated. A good place to start is to directly deal with what caused the damage in the first place. Seek Accountability. Take advantage of the ministries that have been made available for dealing with these sorts of things. Even if the relationship ultimately falls apart, the only relationship that truly matters will remain intact.
