Greg answers questions about whether praying for miracles should be an integral part of evangelism, what to ask someone who thinks humans are born good, why Eve would listen to a talking snake, and whether all Reformed people must believe Jesus only died for the elect.

Topics:

1. Commentary: Should praying for miracles be an integral part of evangelism? (00:00)

2. What can I ask someone who thinks humans are born good to show him that he’s wrong? (25:00)

3. Why would Eve listen to a talking snake? (36:00)

4. The Bible seems to say Jesus died for all, and Romans 11 seems to indicate that “all” doesn’t just refer to the elect. Must Reformed people believe “all” refers to the elect? (44:00)
