Questions in this Episode

1. Is confessing our sins and repenting of them the same thing?

2. In Leviticus 24:19-20, God gives the command for an eye for an eye. But in Matthew 5:38-39, Jesus gives a different command. How is this possible if Jesus is the same God of the Old and New Testaments?

3. Is it still a sin to eat pork and non-kosher food?

4. How are there three persons in the trinity if there is only one God?

5. Why is it that when I or other people ask God to heal them that those prayers are never answered?

Core Question – What's the Difference Between Justification and Sanctification?


In a world filled with complex and often unsettling questions, Core Christianity offers a grounded space for thoughtful exploration. Hosted by Pastor Adriel Sanchez, this podcast directly engages with the difficult inquiries people are actually asking about faith, life, and scripture. Each episode is built on the conviction that honest questions deserve thoughtful, biblical answers. Sanchez doesn’t just aim to demonstrate the truth of Christian teaching; he delves into why these ancient beliefs remain profoundly good and beautiful for modern life. Listening feels like having a compassionate and knowledgeable guide, one who helps untangle theological knots with clarity and grace. This isn't about superficial platitudes, but about rediscovering the foundational, historic truths that have sustained believers for centuries. Through these conversations, the Core Christianity podcast seeks to provide more than just information-it aims to impart a genuine sense of comfort from the gospel message, fostering both confidence and practical wisdom for everyday living. It’s for anyone, whether long-time believer or curious skeptic, who wants to understand the heart of Christian faith beyond the cultural noise.
