Key questions answered in today's show:

Why Does Sin Come Through Adam and Not Eve? Jan 25, 2019

Episode 105 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions.

Show Notes

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. Dr. Horton, I recently read a book about someone having a dream about them going to hell and being told about Jesus. Does God work through visions and dreams? What should I think about their account of hell?

2. I have a friend who stopped going to church because he thinks that Christians are too intolerant. At first, I tried to object to that stereotype, but his interactions with other Christians haven't been models of Christ-likeness. Some Christian people have treated him in very sinful ways and have said horrible things about him that I know aren't true. What should I do to help my friend see that Jesus is bigger than our sin?

3. In Isaiah chapter 11 he speaks about a wolf dwelling with a lamb and a leopard lying down with a young goat. Is Isaiah talking about heaven? And does this mean that there will be animals in heaven?

4. When Jesus prayed that the church would be one it didn't seem like he had in mind that there would be multiple denominations. How do we reconcile this with that fact that it would seem like God would answer Jesus' prayer for unity? What should we as Christians be doing to achieve unity?

5. Revelation 22:17 say, "And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price." Does this mean that anyone could be saved? And if salvation is free why don't more people accept Jesus as Lord?

6. In the opening of 1 Corinthians Paul says that they are sanctified and they are saints. But throughout the letter it doesn't seem like they are saints at all but childish and sinful. Was Paul being sarcastic or was he speaking literally?

Key questions answered in today's show:

1. Hebrews 10:31 says, "It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God." How does this work if God is love? Doesn't love cast out all fear?

2. John 5:27 says, "Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life." If this is true, why do Christians still die?

4. Why does the Old Testament law commend slavery if it is wrong?

5. Why does Paul say that there are certain people we shouldn't even eat with?

1. In Jeremiah 15:19 it says, "If you repent, I will restore you that you may serve me; if you utter worthy, not worthless, words, you will be my spokesman. Let this people turn to you, but you must not turn to them." How might this apply to the church today?

2. Did the Roman Emperor Constantine switch the day of worship from Saturday to Sunday?

3. What do you say to someone who sometimes feels ashamed of the gospel?

4. Is Isaiah 7:14 really a prophecy about Mary and Jesus? I have heard that the word virgin there really means "young maiden" and that this verse can't be used as a prediction about Jesus.

6. Would you agree that love is the most important teaching in the Bible?

7. In Galatians 5 Paul lists sorcery as a work of the flesh. Do you think that is an issue today?
