Episode 402 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions.
Key questions answered in today’s show:
1. How do you know if God loves you? I believe that God loves people, but I really struggle with a sense that God loves me and I’m not sure what to do.
2. Hi Mike and Adriel. I have been loving the show and a while back you talked about doing family devotions. Recently my wife and I started reading a chapter of the Bible and having a short prayer with our three kids. They are 9, 7, and 5. My question is, should I be explaining the passage and how can I make it relevant to them?
3. There is no doubt in my mind that God is real. God is showing me thing, I know in my heart that it’s God, he is showing me stuff about people around me and I have been praying for assurance. I have never experienced something like this. It’s scary to know that so many people are lost. I see a lot of my brothers and sisters struggling to have faith. And here I’m fasting and trying to trust God, but you know it’s like you always have this sense of doubt. I know what God has shown me is true but how do you know for sure? I need prayer.
4. If you sensed, as a pastor, a lack of zeal for the lost in your church, how would you recommend promoting evangelism?
5. How do you know if you are a gentile or a Jew? Is it because you were born in Jerusalem or is it that your heritage is Jewish? Or how did you become a gentile?

Is it Wrong to Pray to Jesus Instead of the Father?
Episode 353 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. Can I take the sacrament only once or twice? How many times in one day? 2. Is it wrong to pray to Jesus? I know what He taught us in the Lord’s Prayer, yet I admit that I feel closer to Jesus (because of His suffering and death on the cross, etc.) than I do to God the Father. So sometimes I just say, “Thank You, Jesus,” and wonder if that is wrong. 3. How should a church determine the best way to spend the money they receive from weekly tithing? 4. How do you feel about the saying, “preach the Gospel and if necessary, use words”? 5. What exactly is happening during Christ’s transfiguration?

How Do We Engage with Jehovah’s Witnesses?
Episode 371 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. When Jesus went to Jerusalem to be crucified, why didn’t Jesus and the apostles bring something for a sacrifice? 2. I was just listening to you and heard you talk about Psalms in Hebrew in order to witness to Jehovah’s Witness. It’s funny because I just had a Jehovah’s Witnesses at my door today and we discussed many things. I was wondering what can I point to help show them the truth of the Gospel and of Revelation and of Jesus Christ? I very much enjoyed speaking with them and I know that they will come back and it would like to be more prepared. 3. What’s the predominant thing I need to understand about the Prophets in the Bible? 4. Is there any danger in the idea of focusing too much on our justification? 5. What did Jesus mean when he said, “Whoever believes in me as the scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water”?
