Episode 164 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. How should the gospel influence the way parents disciple their children? 2. If there is one God, one Jesus, and word, why are there so many religions, so many churches, and so many hypocrites? Why don’t we just have church in our home? 3. I have a question about Romans 13. How does being subject to governing authorities line up with the American Revolution? 4. In another episode, you said that there was a problem with Christians today viewing progress in holiness as an individualistic effort. Would you say that holiness is not individual?

Should Christians Give to the Homeless?
Episode 573 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com 1. I have heard that in prayer we can be totally honest with God, even cry and yell and demand for help when we need it. I recently have seen videos of prosperity preachers screaming in prayer and demanding things of God that seem strange. So how should we model ourselves in prayer? 2. What does Hebrews 12 mean when it says that “Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses”? Who are these witnesses, angels, believers who have died, or something else? 3. Philippians 2:4 says that I should put the needs of others ahead of my own. Matthew 5:40 says that if someone asks me for my shirt, I should give them my coat also. So, if someone approaches me with a need and I have the resources to help I almost always help them. I do, however, have Christian friends who criticize me because they think I’m letting other people take advantage of me. Are they right? 4. Since Muslims actually admit that Jesus is an anointed messenger and messiah, and in light of Matt. 10:32, where Jesus says that, “So everyone who acknowledges me before men, I also will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven,” do Christians do well to condemn Muslims just because they do not confess the Christ of the creeds?
