Questions in this Episode

1. If we are going to be resurrected before we go to heaven, where are the people who have already died? Are they just waiting to go to heaven?

2. Can you define "election," and why would we carry out the Great Commission if we know that there are some people who are not "elected"?

3. We know some Old Testament scriptures symbolically foretell Jesus and his ministry. But is it possible to read too much into these parallels?

4. Is the 10% tithe still required today?

5. In the Bible, there are scriptures that often suggest that monuments are "still standing today." Does that mean these things are still standing in our day or when the scriptures were written?

6. Can our names be blotted out of the Book of Life?

7. In Luke, 22 and 23, Jesus is taken before the assembly. When he is asked "are you the son of God?" He doesn't say, "Yes." Instead, he responds with "you say that I am?" Why does he do that?

Core Christianity: Finding Yourself in God's Story by Dr. Michael Horton


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.
