Episode 266 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions.
Key questions answered in today’s show:
1. What do you think about praying for the Holy Spirit’s presence? Since the Holy Spirit is given to every Christian does it make sense to pray for the Spirit to come?
2. Is the human heart good or bad? Is it bad before Christ enters us and good after he enters?
3. What did Jesus mean when he said in Matthew 5 that the law will not pass away until it’s fulfilled. Does this mean that we don’t have to keep the ten commandments?
4. I know that we can’t be saved by the law but what about love? Isn’t love the way that Christians follow the narrow way of Jesus?

Will Those Deceived by False Prophets Still Enter the Kingdom of God?
Episode 535 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com 1. If Jesus had limited knowledge due to his human nature, does he now have full omniscience being seated at the right hand of the Father? 2. Why is David allowed to eat the Bread of Presence in 1 Samuel 21? Leviticus 24 sounds pretty straight forward that only the priests and their family could eat the bread. I understand that Jesus makes reference to this event in Luke 6 in order to show the Pharisees that they were incorrect about how to interpret the Law, and that he, being God, knew and applied the proper interpretation of the Law. Still, I don’t understand why David was allowed to eat the bread in the first place. 3. Can you follow a false prophet into the kingdom of God? 4. If we are born in sin, how could Jesus not be a sinner in that he was born to a sinner? 5. I hear the word love used so many different times, and it seems like everyone has a different interpretation. How can it be interpreted so many different ways? Resources Knowing God by J. I.

Christianity in the Workplace
Episode 575 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com 1. In the Gospel of John it seems like some people “believed” but really didn’t, according to Jesus. How do we understand this, particularly in reference to ourselves or our friends who may “believe” but might not be saved? How can we discern whether someone is in that state, or is that something only Jesus can see? 2. It seems like in every job there is some form of complicity we share with unethical practices, whether it is selling products made in sweatshops or being in politics or the armed forces where, for better or for worse, you have other people’s lives or livelihoods in your hands. Are there some jobs that Christians should avoid entirely, or how should we practice wisdom when choosing our careers? 3. In Genesis 9, why does Noah curse Canaan after he awakens from his drunkenness and not Ham? What is the significance of Noah’s nakedness being uncovered and covered? 4. What do you think the state of the church is right now, is it good or bad? Are we compromising to the culture and world around us?
