In this interview with former NFL coach Joe Gibbs, Randy Alcorn discusses how Hell, not Heaven, is our default destination when we die, unless we have trusted Christ.  

Question from a reader: If we understand that sex was holy and sacred in Eden as well as in the context of marriage on this Earth, why would we think that sex would be out of place or offensive on the New Earth?

I would dull the minds of Christians, and make them believe that prayer is not important, and that faithfulness and obedience are optional.

This is an argument I’ve heard a number of times throughout the years: “Babies will go to heaven anyway, so abortion isn’t so bad—in fact, it’s actually in the child’s ultimate best interests.” 

Only the elect can be saved; and, no one who is elect ever reaches death not having responded to God’s gift of salvation.

It is quite amazing how often the term “legalism” comes up when there is a serious discussion about obedience or its result, holiness. 

In this five and a half minute clip, Randy Alcorn answers a question about whether the desire to have large churches with buildings and a large staff hinders giving.

I think the key may be that there are different kinds of seeking spoken of in Scripture.

Randy Alcorn shares a divine appointment store related to his Heaven book. 

 Many people blame God for natural disasters. “How could he allow this?” they ask. But what if the Architect and Builder crafted a beautiful and perfect home for Earth’s inhabitants, who despite his warnings carelessly cracked its foundation, punched holes in the walls, and trashed the house? Why blame the builder when the occupants took a sledgehammer to their own home?

I think adoption is hugely connected with the prolife movement. Being known as prolifers, we want to be completely consistent with our message. If we’re saying that these so-called “unwanted children” should be brought into the world, then of course we should be thinking of what we can do to care for those who need to be placed somewhere because their parents can’t care for them.

. . .passages that speak about people sleeping when they die are likewise to be interpreted as simply a metaphorical expression to teach that death is temporary. . . In my mind this is not a central doctrinal issue.

Question from a reader: I’ve heard negative things about Rick Warren and Saddleback Church, as well as Willow Creek Church and other seeker churches. What’s your opinion on this issue? Answer from Randy Alcorn: Attacking fellow Bible-believing Christians is becoming commonplace. Spreading inaccurate information is epidemic.
