Q: I read in Romans 13:11, where Apostle Paul warns us, to be, “All the more diligent, because time is running out.” What does he mean by that statement?
A: The thing to remember is, whenever you’re reading one of the Apostle Paul’s epistles, you’re always detect an ‘urgency’ in his writings, because he was ‘always’ expecting the Lord Jesus to return at any moment.

There’s so much church ‘hopping’ going on, that you can turn your TV on, any Sunday morning, and see members, in the congregation of the locally televised church service, and know they are/were members of such-and-such church.

Q: Can you define Biblically, what is, “A Critical Spirit Of Judging?”
A: [Now] that is indeed a good question!
