Should Christians Report Abuse Even If Forgiveness Is Given? | Ask Dr. Betters

In this episode, Dr. Betters, in response to "Will I Know My Abuser in Heaven?", answers the question, "I feel that abusers get away with their actions both on Earth and in Heaven.

Is it a Sin to have a Tattoo?

In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "Hi Dr. Betters, how are you??? I was wondering about a question that I have had about tattoos! My uncle & I were talking the other day & he & his immediate family had the idea of having a loved one's name ( who passed away in March of 2022 ), tattooed on their bodies & had asked me if I was willing to do the same as them. I do not have any tattoos of any kind on my body & I dunno if I ever want one or any! Then I was reminded of a scripture verse. . . .Leviticus 19:28! Please help me to better understand this verse or any others like it, before I go & possibly do something foolish! Thank you for your time!"

"God Is Allowing Demons To Ruin My Life"

In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "Does God punishes people with demons? Because I’ve been very confused lately and suffering greatly with theology and the Bible and who God is and I also believe I have demons and am in need of deliverance. However, I have cried out to God to help me but he doesn’t. I believe God is using demons to punish me. It’s so bad that I can’t even pray or read the Bible in peace. I feel there is something really evil and strong in my spirit. But God is allowing them to torment me to punish me. I know I sin relentlessly day after day and it’s overwhelming but I just can’t feel peace or rest. I have tried coming to Christ and being saved but I don’t believe what I did was effective. Either I have yet to be saved, or God didn’t choose me for salvation. I wasn’t predestined. I’m suffering a great deal and especially feeling and seeing that God/Jesus doesn’t love me"
