Has the Holy Spirit Stopped Working? PLUS Is the Bible All We Need?

Why does the Church seem so ineffective (and sometimes corrupt) when it claims to carry the truth? Does this mean the Holy Spirit is no longer at work? And why does Frank recommend so many books on his podcast: isn’t the Bible all we need? Tune in this week as he tackles these pressing listener questions and quickly recaps last week’s popular series on the Book of Revelation and the end times while addressing other questions like:

Why would God allow His Church to be so corrupt, chaotic, and unfaithful?

Do we need to sense the Holy Spirit working in our lives in order for Christianity to be true?

Despite its shortcomings, what positive impact has the Church made in the West and all over the world?

What is the contrasting difference between Jesus and Muhammad that many people don’t understand?

What is Sola Scriptura? Does it mean everything we need to know is in the Bible?

What are the three tiers of understanding the Bible?

What are the three ways to gain wisdom?

What is prolegomena and why is it essential to a proper understanding of Scripture?

What’s the #1 subject kids (and adults) should learn in addition to the Bible?

Why is redemption better than innocence?
