This week on the Extras it's our biggest array of questions - ever! We're answering:

1. [Verse 2] Who is the ruler of the kingdom of air? How do you get to this conclusion?
2. If he's the devil why does he mask himself in purity? [??]
3. [Verse 3] “Like the rest we were by nature deserving of wrath” – who is “we” and who is “the rest”?
4. [Verse 6] What does it mean that we were raised up with Christ?
5. [Verse 10] What are the good works we’re going to do?
6. [Verse 12] says circumcision is “done IN the body” not ‘TO the body’ which is how I feel it would normally be put. Is this significant? Just a translation thing?
7. [Verse 14] What does it mean that “he himself is our peace”?

8. [Verse 15] What does it mean when it says Jesus 'set aside in his flesh the Law with its commands and regulations'? What does it mean that he set them aside 'in his flesh'?

9. The scriptures declare that god does not show favouritism [Rom 2:11]. Is the separation and choice of the Jews as gods CHOSEN people, a demonstration of a god that shows favouritism?

10. Why were the gentiles once excluded from the hope of God? I understand that it was always gods plan to give salvation first to the Jews and then to the gentiles as it says in Romans 1, but to be honest I just don’t understand why? Why were we as gentiles excluded from the hope of god for so long?
11. Could gentiles be saved into God’s family prior to Christ’s death and resurrection? If so how?
12. While gentiles are no longer separated from God, is it fair to say that the Jews are now excluded or separated through their rejection of Christ?
13. Is there a wall between God and non-Christians? You mentioned that wall to keep people out is bad (the Great Wall and Trump wall), so what about God's wall to keep sinners out of his presence? What actually is on the TV at 8:30?
14. I know we shouldnt take God's kindness in saving us via Jesus for granted but what is the point of a loving God creating humanity if he didn't want to try save us?
15. If God knows who will receive the gospel, why do we have to live on Earth before having eternal life? Can’t God just send us to our predestined place on the get-go?
16. What is faith? How is it different to the belief the devil has for who Jesus is. How is it a gift? If faith is a gift how do we have it and have more of it?
17. Hi raj if we are saved what are we accountable for?
18. Raj was talking about how we can feel apathy towards the gospel. What should our response be if we are not feeling the zeal for God? 3.1 Reconciliation
19. horizontal reconciliation is a great gift of the gospel, but how does that look like taking into account power differences? in individual relationships, but also in larger scale situations (like dominant cultures)?
20. Is there any application for broken relationships between people when one is Christian and one is not?
21. What does it look like to approach reconciliation and unity where trust has been broken, more particularly in situations of abuse?
