Episode 571 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions.
1. I have noticed that over the last few years a number of Christian worship leaders and artists have renounced the Christian religion and say that they have “de-converted” or “deconstructed” their faith. In light of this, what do you think of singing artist’s songs who have since left the faith?
2. What does the word “elect” mean in scripture?
3. For 30 years I struggled with pornography and alcohol addiction. I know that the Bible says to love your enemies, but I have a hard time loving the people that manufacture these two things that destroy lives every day. How do I handle this if I am to love and forgive them for what they are doing?
4. I really want to be conformed to the image of Christ, and I know it’s only by the power of God that this happens, but I understand that I also have a responsibility as well, but when does law-keeping cross over to legalism?

Understanding the Curse of Ham
Episode 369 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. I’m really struggling to make sense of Romans 11, the part about the branches being cut off. How do you interpret this? Is Paul teaching that Christians can lose their salvation? How does this fit with Romans 9? 2. We know that God doesn’t hold the sins of the Father against his sons and the sins of the sons against the Father. And that being true why is it that we think that God would answers Noah’s curse on Canaan on Canaan who didn’t do anything based on what his Father did? I think that it’s not a curse. I think that Noah either announced judgment or he just prophesied. But we have accepted the fact that it’s a curse. Now we know that most of the Canaanites descendants are the Egyptians, Libyans, the list goes on, and they were prosperous nations. And the Ethiopians were a great people. So, I don’t think it was a curse. 3. Is it ok to work on the sabbath if my job requires me to? 4. How should Christians pray for people who wander away to return to the Lord? 5. How do we know which Old Testament laws still apply today? 6. How is the New Covenant similar or different from the Old Covenant with Abraham?
