Questions in this Episode

1. In step 9 of AA, it requires those in the program to make restitution with people we've hurt but I'm concerned that it's requirements for restitution aren't entirely honest or biblical. What do you think?

2. Am I going to know that I'm fully saved with complete certainty?

3. I’ve been listening to your program, and I have to be honest, some people calling sound like whacked out fundamentalists, and that gives the impression to others that Christianity is just made up of a bunch of zealots. What do you think?

4. Does Genesis 3:23-24 reveal an inner dialogue among the persons of the Trinity?

5. What does Paul mean in Romans 3:25 that God passed over sins previously committed? If I continue to sin after God has done this will these new sins be held against me?

Episode 405 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions.

Show Notes

CoreChristianity.com

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. I'm a new believer. Jesus came from heaven to come down to be on earth did he know he was going to be resurrected and go back to heaven or did he come down only thinking he was going to die?

2. What should I do when my joy and passion to read the Bible has faded?

3. This week I was reading the Bible looking for answers. I have been struggling with ongoing sin. I struggle with lust. I came across a passage that gave me some hope of victory but I’m not sure how to apply it. Colossians 1:29, “For this I toil, struggling with all his energy that he powerfully works within me.” How can I see God work powerfully within me in this area of my life?

4. On several episodes you have talked about the difference between the law and the gospel. I’m a bit confused. If we are forgiven does that mean that the law no longer applies to us?

5. How do you understand the great commission? Does the call to go apply to everyone; and what does Jesus mean when he says that he will be with us?

6. I'm Jewish but I'm a believer in Jesus the Messiah. I have always struggled with how Jews were saved before Jesus came. And is there salvation for Jews without Jesus? And I know in revelation it says that he does save a remnant of Israel. Thanks.

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. How should Christians think about money, their money, other people’s money? Sometimes I hear people speak as if they are free to do whatever they please with their money (so long as it’s legal). Is this a Biblical view? 2. The Bible talks a lot about money. Why is money important to God? Why should we think about money as Christians? 3. Many people have anxiety over money and avoid talking about it. How can Christians deal with their anxiety about money and develop a healthy view of money? 4. What are the small steps people can begin to take to be faithful stewards?

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. What does it mean that we should examine ourselves before communion? If I have unconfessed sin in my life should I not participate?

2. What would you tell someone who is homosexual in relation to their Christianity?

3. “The next day an evil spirit sent from God came powerfully on Saul, and he began to rave inside the palace. David was playing the lyre as usual, but Saul was holding a spear” (1 Samuel 18:10 CSB) What does it mean an evil spirit from God and why?

4. My question is from Colossians 1:21–23. How do I make sense of the word "if?" Is salvation dependent upon us? Can we abandon it?

5. Where does it teach church membership in the Bible?

Show Notes

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. Can you be a Christian if you have made Jesus your savior and you don't know if you repented or not? Is being saved just asking Jesus to save you?

2. I like apologetics, but sometimes I worry that it gives the impression that if a person doesn’t have really good reasons for their faith then they don’t have true faith. But I have met some good Christian people who can’t give a good argument for the resurrection. What do you think?

3. How do we keep from getting so caught up in things like politics that we forget about the Gospel?

4. Is it okay for Christians to pray for God’s wrath towards those who are against him?

5. How should I understand the story of Judah and Tamar?

6. Dr. Horton, what is your favorite passage in the Book of Isaiah?

Show Notes

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. In 1 Corinthians 15:50 it says, “I tell you this, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.” I’m really confused about this because it sounds like Paul is saying that sin is tied to our body.

2. Are good works part of salvation; and what are good works exactly?

3. What is the most important thing New believers need to understand about worship?

4. My question relates to the end of 1 Corinthians 14 were it says, "let him who is spiritual acknowledge that what I’m writing to you is a command of the Lord.” What do you see here that is being commanded?

Show Notes

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. In Matthew 7:21–23, where Jesus says to people “I never knew you” does this apply to lukewarm Christians? How do you know if this passage applies to you or not?

2. In Psalm 51 David says, “Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me.” Does this mean that David was worried that he would lose his salvation? Is this how we should respond to our sin?

3. Can an unmarried Christian live with their significant other?

4. Does being spiritually mature mean that I will no longer struggle with my sin? Not that I’ll be perfect, but that it won’t be as hard to fight against my sin?

5. Is the Gospel truly for everyone?

6. What will heaven be like?
