Q/A: I recently met someone who has introduced me to a local Christian church.  As a new Christian I feel blessed to be where I am with God. I should be able to answer my own question, yet I do require another opinion to direct me rightfully.   This person who introduced me to Christianity has tempted me into sinful acts and has promoted them with assurances that we will be forgiven.  I have made wrong choices and I do know better than to be naïve.  I cannot change the past and I do vow to do better for my future.   My question is why would a good Christian tempt another to begin with?  Why is he lacking and what good conversation or verse can I use to guide us? - Linda  

Q/A: We are discussing “worship” in our small groups at home.  I see worship as “showing your love for God”.  You might do this through singing, praying or clapping hands.  How would you describe worship and where in the Bible may I find information on how we must worship?  Your answers are always informative and to the point. - Richard

Q/A: What do I need to look for or consider when deciding on a church to attend?  Are there certain warning signs I should be aware of? - Ronald

Q/A: I am currently searching for a church. I have been to an American Baptist Church, Methodist Independent Churches and the Pentecostal Church. I am finding that there are differences. However, it is confusing. I am leaning more towards the Pentecostal because of their unity, but I struggle with their belief about the outward knowing of conversion is that you speak in tongues. Which of all the churches is correct? What should I be looking for?I love the Lord with all my heart, soul and mind and I have prayed about this…help! - Robin

Q/A: ...We have been visiting other churches now for a couple of months, and we cannot tell at all where God wants us.... Can you please give us some guidelines or suggestions as to how we can be sure where God wants us to be? I have heard that you should only leave the body if there are doctrinal problems. - Charles
