Episode 927 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions.
Questions in this Episode
1. Is all sin equal in God’s eyes? For example, is a white lie the same as a murder?
2. I am trying to decide which church I should start tithing to. We don’t really have an established Christian church here. Things have not gone back to in person here yet it is still virtual. Then I thought of Core Christianity. I love the show. But I am not sure if it is a church. Do you consider Core Christianity to be a church? Would it be acceptable to tithe to the Inner Core?
3. How should we understand 1 Corinthians 15:54 mean?
4. Why are Christians so worked up about the war in Ukraine rather than abortion?

What Does it Mean To Be Pro-Life?
Episode 643 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com 1. Jesus proclaimed that he was the Son of God, and yet in Mark 1:25, Jesus rebuked the demons and told them not to say who he was. Why did he do that? 2. What does it mean to be saved and what does that look like? 3. Doesn’t God require us to obey him rather than man? I know Romans 13 says we should obey the governing authorities, but there seems to be a double-standard enforced by the government regarding which things can be open amidst the pandemic and which cannot. What should the church do? 4. I am a registered nurse and cannot imagine how men can tell women what to do with their bodies. I am not for abortion but I would never foist my beliefs onto others. There are lots of elderly people being mistreated in the nursing homes, why don’t “pro-lifers” care about them? 5. I take communion at my home every day. Am I “heaping judgment” upon myself? 6. I am fifty-eight and have never been married. Should I seek out a spouse or should I just wait for God to answer my prayers?

Is it Hypocritical to Doubt that God is Real, but Still Go to Church?
Episode 355 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. This seems like a little thing but in the Lord’s prayer it seems that some translations say, “they will be done in earth as it is in heaven,” but the most services use the word “on.” It seems like a big difference in meaning. 2. Is it hypocritical to doubt that God is real and still go to church? 3. How do Christians balance stepping in to be a peacemaker, but also not being overly involved in people’s private lives? 4. In the book of Romans when it says, “no one seeks God,” is the Bible speaking literally? I’ve known a lot of non-believers that have seemed to be seeking the Lord.
