Did Jesus Lie to His Brothers In John Chapter 7?
Episode 448 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. If Jesus is still embodied (albeit in a glorified body) does this mean that He is not omnipresent? 2. What is the sign of the coming of the Christ in Matthew? 3. In John 7, Jesus’s brothers ask Jesus to go to Judea. In verses 6 through 9 Jesus explains that He “is not going up to this festival.” Then in verse 10 Jesus does the opposite of what he told his brothers! After Jesus’s brothers left for the festival, then Jesus went privately “in secret”. Whatever Jesus’s reason was to go, Jesus lied to his brothers! I just am so disturbed by this passage because it seems like what we call a ” little white lie.” 4. Should we move to attend a specific pastor’s church?

Best of 2022: What Should We Think About the Collapse of Hillsong Church?
Episode 1127 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Questions in this Episode 1. Does God ever heal non-Christians? And if someone has unconfessed sin, does that hinder God from doing a miracle in their life? 2. How can I deal with grief? I lost my fiance last summer and I am still struggling with her death. 3. I have a question about the things happening at Hillsong church where leaders being exposed for sin in their lives. Some christians tell me that Jesus said, “let him who is without sin cast the first stone” – that we shouldn’t judge anybody. And some draw parallels to King David and how he committed horrible sins but he is remembered as a man after God’s heart and how God has throughout history used broken sinful people for his kingdom. How do I balance this with the standard the New Testament puts on leaders in the church? 4. It doesn’t seem like many pastors teach on Revelation. What do you think? 5. When Christians die, do they immediately go to heaven? Today’s Offer Inner Core Request our latest special offers here or call 1-833-THE-CORE (833-843-2673) to request them by phone.
