Episode 183 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com Key questions answered in today’s show: 1. On an episode you said that prayer is just talking to God, but I know that you also think written prayers are a good thing. Can you explain how you hold these together? 2. Is it okay for Christians to date non-Christians? What about a person who is open to coming to church? 3. In a few places Jesus teaches that Christians should expect to suffer persecution. In your understanding how does that make sense of most of us in America who hardly seem to suffer any real persecution for their faith? 4.

Are the “Sons of God” in Genesis 6 Fallen Angels?
Episode 565 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions. Show Notes CoreChristianity.com 1. There is a church in our town that has an alternative event for kids to attend instead of trick-or-treating. What do you think about these types of alternative events? 2. Is it ok for Christians to eat pork now, or is it something we should still refrain from like in the Old Testament? 3. What does the word “repent” really mean? Does it mean to ‘stop sinning,’ or does it mean, ‘a change of mind leading to a changed life’? 4. Are the Sons of God in Genesis 6 angels? In the Gospel of Matthew it seems to indicate that angels cannot participate in things like marriage and sex. I do not put too much thought or stock into this, but I am wondering what you all think about this view of angels being the “Sons of God” in Genesis 6.
