1.
In one of your Ask the Pastor segments a viewer asked for a recommendation for a church to attend in Houston, TX. One of the churches you mentioned was Lakewood – Joel Osteen’s church. He seems to have a very passive faith, doesn’t want to offend, does not firmly hold to the Christian belief of Jesus being the one and only way to heaven. I’m curious why you recommended his church, if that is still your opinion and your opinion on Joel’s teachings.
2.
Two Christians disagree on this topic – One says Christians should support laws that promote Christian values in government and society, ie banning homosexual marriage. The other says the best way to reach people is not to “force our values on others” or “condemn their actions” by passing such laws, but rather “Just keep being their friend in all ways including sharing the truth and praying for them.” What is your opinion?
3.
For many years I lived a very wrong life. I have given my life back to the Lord but I have lost friends, my boyfriend, some family. They say there is something wrong with me, that I’m not myself anymore. Is it me? Have I turned into a Jesus Freak? Do I scare them because they are still sitting in the dark? I don’t want to be in sin anymore because that life was no good and something, a strong feeling, just keeps telling me to go to the Lord.

In 2 John, we are COMMANDED to walk in love & to love one another; however, the final line of the fourth paragraph, it says “if anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take him into your house or welcome him.

2.
I’ve been doing a little study about Zebulun and his inheritance and the inheritances of the other tribes. I’ve noticed something missing in many article, namely the time period that Jacob said the inheritances would be fulfilled. Many articles I’ve read thus far try to fulfill Zebulun’s inheritance in the Old Testament time period but that seems to be a direct contradiction of what Jacob said in Gen. 49:1. The birthrights would be fulfilled in the New Testament (“last days”) era and not the Old Testament era. I could be wrong but I don’t believe the Bible ever refers to the Old Testament period as the “last days.” Especially back in the days of Joshua when the tribes were settled. Correct?
3.

I am a single mother that is also an addict, a recovering one but none the less an addict. I have dealt with this issue for about 9 yrs now, and I have been to treatment for it as well.

I believe people don’t focus so much on the vows/promises they made to the person under God in marriage. Instead they look for unrealistic love and as soon as they aren’t in the clouds or feeling the spark, they call it quits like the vows they say are a sneeze. Do you think that one of the biggest causes for divorce is simply selfishness in a way? And is it okay just to divorce cause your simply unhappy? or do you have to be a victim of something?

If someone has committed adultery against someone, they know that it is wrong. The ex doesn’t know about it even to this day..That person is now a new Christian.

5.
I have been doing an in depth study of Revelations, and as I listened to your answer to a previous question noticed that you said we will not be here for any of the tribulation. I tend to understand scripture to say we will not be “raptured,” for lack of a better word, until the “last trumpet” which is after a lot of what happens in the end times.

I feel as if I have chosen the wrong “path” for my life… I am very proudly saved, however I feel as though I am going through lots of unnecessary “trials and tribulations” simply because I made several poor choices in the earlier part of my life.

Could there be something that I am doing that is preventing me from being blessed with being able to walk on my own again?

I gave up my career to help take care of my dying father in 2000. His new wife emptied his accounts in the 2 weeks leading up to his death, and I was left to live off loans, credit cards and food stamps. Although it has been years since this happened, I have been unable to get on with my life, unable to work and my depression has left me with no hope for a happy future. PLEASE, tell me what to do to forget this injustice and focusing on why God gave so much to a mean, spiteful woman and left me wondering where my next meal is coming from.
3.
I have noticed that one woman, and then another wear a hat routinely every Sunday. It does say in 1 Corinthians (11:4-6, specifically) that “if a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off.” So should every woman wear some kind of head covering? If so, when should women begin?

My husband and I are reading the New Testament for Bible study, and we happen to be reading Revelation. We have an area that totally refutes the church’s belief in a pre-tribulation rapture, or we THINK, anyway. Please tell me what your “take” is on this–it’s Revelation 7:3-4 where it talks about putting a seal on the foreheads of servants of God, and it continues to say that only 12,000 from each of the 12 tribes. Does this mean that we are NOT saved? If it does not, how are we to REALLY be saved, and how are we to be aware of the “tribe” of which we originate?

Is Cornerstone more Baptist in nature than Assembly of God? I just started attending, and it seems like we are mainly the same as some of the large Baptist churches in the area. Is that accurate or am I missing something?

Two people whom are divorced, but are now planning to remarry, decide to start their “new life” with God in the relationship. They seek to become baptized, but do not divulge they are living together. After the Baptism they resume their living situation. My question is this, does that baptism really bring God into that relationship or does it just constitute another lie they are building their lives on? As believers, do we sit back and say nothing?
3.
Can a woman divorce her husband if he has committed adultery?

For about a year now, I feel God has been calling me back to Cornerstone Church. My former husband and I attended regularly about 9 years ago until we moved out of state. However, I currently live in Arizona and finances are such that I don’t feel I can securely move at this time. I attend a church in my current city; however, I watch Cornerstone via the website and I consider Cornerstone my church home. My question is – Is it okay to consider my church home Cornerstone and tithe to Cornerstone, or should I continue to tithe to the church I currently attend?
5.
What do you feel about the gift of prophetic words? I noticed that it doesn’t happen in the church, and you don’t seem to bring people in who operate in that gifting.

2.
I truly believe that I have been called to preach and teach the gospel. My track record with the Lord and church haven’t always been great, or good for that matter, I have taken both Discipleship 101 & 102, yet with my history of falling away from church on and off again, I’m afraid to even try and move forward. Hebrews 6:4-6, terrifies me. I have met with Pastor Sandy, but I was unable to receive the Holy Spirit or speak in tongues! She told me that I should receive quickly, yet I am having trouble with it! Pastor Keith has spoken with me several times and has been truly awesome. Yet I still struggle with receiving. Is there any info or help that you can give me on this?
3.
When you die and are saved, do you instantly go to heaven? The Word says that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Then it says during the rapture the dead in Christ rise first. So does that mean when I die my spirit goes to heaven, but I don’t have a body til the rapture takes place?
4.
This is regarding my dad: he and my mom divorced when I was in second grade, and he was remarried to another woman in 1990. This “new” wife has brought him down…A LOT!

4.
In scriptural reference to New Heaven & New Earth (Isaiah 65:17-25), we are told of some adults dying at 100 years old, no infants dying prematurely and people having descendants. I always understood Jesus to say men and women would not be given in marriage in Heaven (thus no infants or descendants), and death would be wiped away (thus no one dying at 100 years old). I don’t understand how what Jesus said can support what Scripture says about New Heaven/Earth in Isaiah? Please explain.

Have you read Rob Bell’s book ‘Love Wins’? If so, what do you think of its message? If not, he makes an argument for Universal Reconciliation – what are your views on this?
2.
If it is, in fact, true that Rob Bell does not believe in Hell, being that he is wrong on such an important issue, should we disregard all his other teachings/books/sermons from the past and stop listening to his future teachings?
3.
When fasting, is it that you go without food and drink or can it be just food? I was called to do a 25 day fast.

I would like to know if there is a Christian way to throw a grown child (21 years old) out of the house. I have a child who has been gone for about a month now leaving me to pay all the bills, which I cannot do. I am in jeopardy of losing my home and car without her income. She continually lies about coming home and says that she hasn’t moved out, yet she continues to stay with her boyfriend and his parents. I have asked her to return items she has taken with her and told her she needs to come get her belongings, and I still haven’t seen her. Before I go over to the house where she has been staying with her belongings, I would like to know how to handle this in a Christian manner?

You have suggested at one time that we should take the Bible literally whenever possible. How should we take Proverbs 24:17?

3.
I was born and raised Baptist and have been at Cornerstone for 3 years and loves it. My question is, when I was baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost does that mean I need another baptism in just the Holy Ghost?..or did I receive it the first time?
4.
Many “Christians” I have come across lately have lost their minds, when it comes to topics like the there is no hell and the May 21 rapture teachings out there. They say things like “I know what Matt 24:36 says” or “I know what the Bible says, but when I look at everything going on in the world, it must be true.” It makes me want to knock them upside the head, but I can’t. Knowing that in the end some will be deceived, I’ve had the opportunity to walk through the scriptures with them. You have such a way with words, so what would you say to them?
5.
This question comes from the sermon on Sunday May 15, 2011 called “Do Right.” It was another great sermon, however you told many stories of your childhood. However you left us holding on to the last story of the bass boat. You never told us what your father did to you and your brother. Was it so bad that you can’t speak of it? It looks like you lived through it, but was it the beating of your life or did he never really speak of it and you and your brother kept waiting for the ball to drop one day?

1.
Not to get into details, but I can’t really get married according to the government. I take my promise to this man and to God to love this man more serious than a stupid signature could ever prove. To me it is more serious to get married under God than with a signature required by law to be “married,” which isn’t respected by most who get married now days anyways. So, would I be able to just get married under God, if I can’t get married by government law?
2.

My girlfriend and I have been going to Cornerstone since October 2010, but we missed out meeting you in the visitor’s room. Would we still be welcomed in there to come meet you?
3.
There are several versions of the borders of Israel given in the Bible that all differ quite vastly. The Bible doesn’t seem to be in harmony on this topic. How should we as Christian interpret this? Did God change His mind or did men get it wrong? What do you consider to be the true borders?
4.
Why is it that we only go by some things in the Old Testament, and some we don’t? For example, it says in Genesis that you shall not tattoo yourself? Also, in Deuteronomy it says that if you have a wife you shall not go to war? I feel like some pick and choose out of the Old Testament depending on what is convenient for them.
5.
Do you think that life on earth could be wiped out by a solar flare? Would God send one to smite sinners?

When reading the Bible and trying to understand it, what did God mean in the book of Exodus 22 chapter 29? He said, “You must give me the firstborn of your sons.”
2.
I have a boyfriend of two years, and we are very much committed. The issue is, I can’t get married, or better said, I shouldn’t in case the opportunity of getting my legal status fixed comes up. But what should I do if I want to have children, but is it in my best benefit to get married? Would a simple ceremony in public with friends, family, and witnesses be enough according to what is required in the Bible?
3.
What am I supposed to do as a Christian, with a close friend who will not change their ways and continues to commit adultery, and other sins? I know that we all sin, but am I to stop being friends with this person or am I to keep trying to persuade them to do the right thing?

Is there scripture something to the effect that, “God may take you early to protect you and to ensure that your future is heaven bound with Him?”

1.
In an effort to reduce government and to reduce at least in some part this out of this world budget, why not have the Church provide for the poor, afflicted, homeless and elderly? Are we not as Christians charged with this task as well? Surely if all the Churches, despite denomination, came together in the name of Christ and used a portion of their offerings this could be done. What would you recommend?
2.
My question is, I was told that we need to prepare ourselves and store up food and water for the end times. Do you believe that this is true?
3.
How did you arrive at using the New American Standard Bible out of all of the different translations of the Bible?
4.
The current day Jews do not believe that Jesus is the Savior and that the Messiah has not yet come. Therefore, I am assuming they only believe in the Old Testament. If they only believe in the Old Testament then they should be following the Old Testament, as it was written and be following all of the Old Testament Laws. My question is, if they only believe in the Old Testament, why are they not sacrificing animals in the Jewish Temples?
5.
What do you think of the “Message Bible?” Is it a good translation?
Week 75 with Pastor Davis
Questions Being Answered This Week
1.
I have recently heard from two or three people that the story of Jesus, born of a virgin, died for His people, resurrected, and more have been repeated throughout History, even before Jesus Himself. But have you heard of this–like the first I heard was the Egyptian mythical god, Horus, if you have, what do you know? Do they teach you about this in theology?
2.
I’m sure you’re familiar with the idea of “fleecing the Lord,” or praying for a specific sign in response to prayer to receive an answer from the Lord on an issue. Do you think it’s possible when you earnestly seek the Lord for a sign that the enemy can produce the sign you ask for to blind you and lead you out of God’s will?
3.
Pastor, how do you propose waiting on the Lord? Especially if you are not use to it?
4.
How can I get over being totally humiliated and embarrassed at church? I can’t stop crying when I am by myself. It is hard to go back to church and face the embarrassment.

Pastor, my grandfather was a full blooded Jew and was agnostic. I prayed for his salvation until the day he died. However, I’ve heard that in the end all Israel gets a second chance at salvation. They will be gathered back to serve God the way he intended. Is this true, and if so does it include the Jews who are no longer living?

1.
Pastor Davis, I’m somewhat confused about RICH preachers. I firmly believe the number one reason why people reject church is that they see all these pastors and preachers living like kings and millionaires, some with multi-million dollar homes, and hundreds of thousands of dollars in the bank account (if not millions) while the poor go to bed hungry–it’s just not godly? What do you think about this?
2.
I feel like I’ve had more endings than beginnings lately. I think I’m following the path God wants me to follow, but should there be all of this pain?
3.
I have a friend who is serving in a Texas prison who is soon to be released. He’s been in 10 yrs. I just found him in prison and have started to communicate. I struggle with what to say to encourage him to find or stay with God when he gets out. I want to be sure I treat the situation correctly… Any suggestions?
4.
Recently, you said at a service on Sunday, something like you should be baptized by the Pastor of your church. Well, I thought more about that, because I have already been baptized at Cornerstone, but since you are my pastor, my question is would it be offensive to God to be baptized once more? Also, do you plan on baptizing again? If so, when?
5.
Do all Christians have to be able to speak in tongues? I’ve never been able to speak in tongues, and I am not sure about my salvation because from what I’ve understood in the past–was if I can’t speak in tongues I am not saved. I DON’T KNOW?

3.
Jesus tells us to ‘turn the other cheek’, but to what extreme? In the movie ‘End of the Spear’, missionaries allow themselves to be killed rather than defend themselves against unsaved natives. If a religious extremist seeks to kill me should I not defend myself by killing him so that others would still have a chance for salvation?
4.
Pastor Davis, a few months ago I had a breakup with a girlfriend. While not everything was my fault some things were, I have apologized to her and GOD, but I did not hear a reply from her. But not hearing from her even if she didn’t accept my apology makes me feel like I am unforgiven, and it is affecting pretty much my prayer and my spiritual life. I always thought that we were suppose to make peace with the person we wronged before GOD could forgive us. How and what do I need to do to get peace in all of this situation?
5.
I am about to be married. My fiance and I have had premarital sex and have a child together. We are now trying to do what is right and have not been together in a couple months and are waiting until we marry. I recently found out that he is still lying to me about silly things, but lying still. I’m trying to determine if I should work on this or not. If God sees us as married, then I know that I have to work on this no matter what and make it work. But, if we are not, then I can choose to marry him or call off the wedding. So, my question is, does God see us as already united because we slept together?

I was a first time visitor this Sunday at Cornerstone. When someone out of the congregation yelled, “Pastor, love is love”, he was escorted out of the church. I understand the person was being disruptive and disrespectful, but shouldn’t he be shown the love of Christ and try to explain to him the Bible?
3.
What is the biggest thing in the Bible that challenges you?
4.
The question I have is about the meanest woman I have ever known. She destroys everyone’s life that she comes in contact with and she laughs about it. She has five daughters and they all despise her because of the destruction she has brought into their lives. This woman is evil to the bone. She is now 84 years old, and I have prayed for her salvation often because I keep reminding myself that God loves her just as much as He loves me, but I have said when she dies that I’m going to dance on her grave for the destruction she has caused in the lives of those whom I love. She has caused more pain than I can even tell you about. My question is, would it be a sin for me to dance on her grave after she is gone?
5.
I am convinced that very few charities actually do the right thing because people give lots of money, and if they give, starving people out of the country shouldn’t be in such need as always. Am I being naive here, is it the people who give? If money is given and charities use it correctly it should be making a huge obvious change. What is going on?

My question is, if a man hits a woman or grabs her in a violent way while they are dating and she ends it with him, because of forgiveness should she forgive him and give him another chance just because God gives us another chance when we mess up?
2.
I know my current pastor has stolen money from others in our city. This has been through false reports at his secular job, skipping out on rent with the story that he is a pastor and will pay them back, etc. He also would tell people that his secular job only pays minimum wage when he makes $60,000 a year. It is hard for me to sit and hear him speak. I know he is a fake, but I don’t want to cause trouble or leave my church. What should I do? The stories are true because the landlord and his “former boss” are personal friends.
3.
Have you ever thought about having “Dog, the Bounty Hunter” as a special guest at Cornerstone?
4.
My wife and I have been attending your church now for almost 5 years. Recently I found us in a disagreement about prayer. She was raised Baptist and thinks that prayers can be heard and answered by God, simply by “thinking” them. I’ve always been instructed that a literal definition of religious prayer is to “speak,” regardless of how loud, as long as it is spoken. Can you clarify this dispute for me by letting us know who is right, and give us a Bible verse to confirm the true answer?

I am studying Revelation in my Bible study class. Christ tells one of the churches if they do not repent their name could be removed from the book of life. I take this literally. Another woman said Christians are marked and the mark can not be taken away. I was taught we can leave the faith with our own free will and have our name removed from the Book. She is saying then that person wasn’t really saved and never received the mark. Please advise me on the correct answer.
I've been in prayer and study today. I am ready for an incredibly interesting, entertaining and anointed Memorial Day service. 17 hours ago
