Episode 68 | Dr. Michael Horton and Adriel Sanchez answer caller questions.
Key questions answered in today's show:
1. When Jesus says that believers should "turn the other cheek" when someone strikes them, is this applicable in every scenario? I'm a police officer, so depending on what call I receive sometimes it's my job not to turn the other cheek. How should I and other believers view texts like these?
2. If someone has come back to the faith and rededicated their life to the Lord, and even though they have already been baptized, should they get re-baptized?
3. Why do you think it's so difficult for churches, especially in America, to talk about ethnic diversity in the church?
4. In church, we sing a song with the line, "So let the accuser roar of sins that I have done, I know them all and thousands more, my Father knoweth none." Is this accurate to say? Even if we are justified does God ignore our sins?
5. In Hebrews 8:13 it says, "In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away." Is there a difference between making the old covenant "obsolete" and fulfilling the law? How does Jesus do this?
