Do Old Testament Promises to the Israelites Apply to Christians Today?
Episode 385 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. Why did Jesus’ ministry focus on the Jews? Why did he not go out to the gentiles if the gospel is for all people? 2. Hello, I want to thank you for your wonderful shows which have been so helpful to me in understanding the scriptures, could you explain what is meant in Leviticus 27:29 – did the LORD require human sacrifice? 3. I’m really confused when Paul says that no one seeks God in Romans 3 because we are the ones who have to have faith and seek God. Isn’t seeking God required to be saved? Is it that Paul isn’t being literal? 4. Certain Scriptures that we read we tend to personalize them such as Jeremiah 29:11. Now I love that verse and like to think about that verse in terms of my own life. However, that was said to specific people. And God was making a promise to that group of people.

How do you guys continue to have hope? Do you see the future of the church as better than its current state? 2. I have several friends who are homosexual. Leviticus 18.22 calls it an abomination. But does that mean the church should reject them? This is a common practice in the south to the point that they can’t serve on any church board or whole any office in the church. But Matthew 7 says “don’t judge others lest you be judged.” I know judgment is for the Lord, but I care deeply about my friends who are homosexuals. I’m not sure how we are supposed to handle that? 3. What does it mean for God to be one in essence and three in person? Does God’s covenant name, “Yahweh,” belong to the entirety of the Godhead or does it belong more to God the Father? 4. Should Christians live like Jesus could return in any minute even when the church has been waiting over 2000 years for him to return?
