Key questions answered in today's show:

1. What did Jesus mean in the sermon on the mount when he made statements, "you have heard it said, but I say to you..." Is Jesus doing away with the law?

2. As believers in this day in age when you die, do you go directly to heaven; or do you sleep until the day of the Lord? I have seen Scripture that can go both ways. The Bible says that you know nothing in the grave. It says that David is still in the grave sleeping.

3. What do people mean when they say that the Bible is the word of God?

4. How do we respond when people point to the Bible as a means to spread misogyny?

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?

Show Notes

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. What's the difference between Christianity and other religions? Why can you say we don't worship the same God?

2. Would it be a bad idea to date this guy who has a past? He mentioned that before he became a Christian, he was having sex with other girls and was drinking a lot. He says that God has delivered him from that. Is it a bad thing to want to be with him if I know that God has forgiven him? I was hoping to get your thoughts on that.

3. What is Jeremiah referring to when he talks about the "great and unsearchable things"?

4. How can I figure out my spiritual gift so I can become more of a blessing to my church?

Show notes

Show Notes

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. This seems like a little thing but in the Lord's prayer it seems that some translations say, "they will be done in earth as it is in heaven," but the most services use the word "on." It seems like a big difference in meaning.

2. Is it hypocritical to doubt that God is real and still go to church?

3. How do Christians balance stepping in to be a peacemaker, but also not being overly involved in people's private lives?

4. In the book of Romans when it says, "no one seeks God," is the Bible speaking literally? I've known a lot of non-believers that have seemed to be seeking the Lord.

Show notes

Episode 354 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions.

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?

Show Notes

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. Can I take the sacrament only once or twice? How many times in one day?

2. Is it wrong to pray to Jesus? I know what He taught us in the Lord's Prayer, yet I admit that I feel closer to Jesus (because of His suffering and death on the cross, etc.) than I do to God the Father. So sometimes I just say, "Thank You, Jesus," and wonder if that is wrong.

3. How should a church determine the best way to spend the money they receive from weekly tithing?

4. How do you feel about the saying, "preach the Gospel and if necessary, use words"?

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. If you are saved why does the person that is saved have to go through a judgment? I thought being saved by the Lord's grace and blood you would be saved and live with him.

2. In the New Jerusalem, as described in Revelation, walls and gates are surrounding the city. As all evil will have been eradicated by that time, and God's perfect creation reigns then, from what do the walls and gates protect the New Jerusalem? Or why are the gates and walls there or needed?

3. Does God use our trials to discipline us?

4. Can a true Christian be led astray from the faith?

5. How do I know if I truly believe in Jesus?
