Are Christians Supposed To Be Happy All The Time?

In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "What does "who for the joy set before him endured the cross mean from Hebrews 12?" I have heard Christians use this and other verses about joy to say we need to be happy all the time. But that is just not what I feel. It makes me not want to go to church when the theme always seems to be "be happy" even when life sucks.”

Call No Man Father?

In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "Hey brother, Lord's commandment says we call no man "Father" (ie. in the spiritual sense - Mat. 23:9) as opposed to Paul's words to the Corinthians (I Cor. 4:15) wherein he seems to assert himself as their "father" (in the spiritual sense.) How to view this supposed contradiction? Thank You for your ministry"

The Sea Will Be No More?

In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "Revelation 21:1 speaks about a new heaven and a new earth, and the sea was no more. This has always puzzled me. I keep in mind Noah and the flood. And in Romans 8:22 where the earth groans from sin. The thought came to me as to why the 'sea will be no more.' Is it because the ocean is a reminder of man's sin and the penalty of the flood? My question is more of 'Biblical curiosity.' I do not fear the future for I know my Redeemer and He lives in me and I am SEALED, praise God. Thank you for your ministry, and keep on keeping on, God bless. Howard”

Will You Lose Your Memory in Heaven?

Will I Be Happy if My Family is Not in Heaven?

In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, ""My question for Muslims Christians, and Jews is this: if being in heaven means you are eternally happy that means it must be perfect but how will I be happy if for example, my whole family didn’t get into heaven but I did even if they weren’t evil they simply just were non-believers? Also, how is it fair that someone can live their whole life putting others before them and living life the way ‘god’ would want them to accept the fact that they didn’t believe in their creator makes them doomed to hell whereas an evil person who has repented and then says, for example, goes out after repenting and gets hit by a car meaning they have no chance to ever go back to sinning could still go to heaven?"
