  • Erwin Lutzer joins me on today's podcast to discuss how Christians can live out our convictions in a growing tide of hostility. In a culture of outrage and victimhood, how can we recognize and reject the toxic responses secular culture disguises as solutions while continuing to publicly testify the truth of the gospel?

      @@grimlund you make a good point and there are lots of religions that bash people into submission. The difference between religion and true Christianity is that we are taught to seek truth through prayer and scripture. Although it is wise to seek counsel from pastors, teachers and biblical scholars, we are also taught not to esteem them more highly than anyone else. Human wisdom can filled with pride, self serving motivation, and imperfections whether intentional or unintentional. A warning sign for propaganda is that you are berated for your beliefs or unbelief, that you have the audacity to question the 'propaganda', and you are shunned or silenced because of your opposition. Faith is a journey and no one can demand that you believe or don't believe the gospel of the scriptures, instead a Christian's response should be to walk alongside you as you work out those beliefs.

      @@grimlund there's a point where you have to take the things you have been taught as a child and question the validity. Nobody is going to enter the kingdom of heaven because of their parents faith or religion, culture, social or political stance, etc. Only you are accountable for accepting or rejecting the things you have been taught. The God of the Bible promises that He will reveal Himself to those that seek Him, and there are many examples of people all over the world that have rejected various doctrines when they encountered the radical love and forgiveness of Jesus. When I became an adult and moved out of my parents home, I did wrestle with my childhood faith versus other religions. Christianity is not a blind faith but a daily process of mentally working out and finding answers to your very questions.

If we look at other countries and see the oppression of Christians by government, community, and even their families we realize we've had it easy for a long time. It may be that sometime soon we will have to pay the price as well. May God give us the grace to be faithful.

      @@JulioVonGhoulio What’s your basis for claiming that God/Jesus is an imaginary person? Surely you must’ve come across at least *some* of the proof of Jesus’ existence and resurrection, and of God’s existence, now that we’re living in 2021 and have access to more knowledge and evidence than ever before. One obvious piece of evidence that you might’ve not realized, is that we’re living in year AD 2021 for a reason; Jesus quite literally split time in two. An imaginary person is not able to do that.
      We know from scientific data that the universe came into existence at one point, from nothing. Since it’s a scientific impossibility for nothing to create something, it’s logically reasonable to conclude that there must have been a first cause; something caused the universe to exist. Whatever caused the universe must exist outside of space, it must not be bound by time, and it must be immaterial; because whatever it was that created space, time, and matter cannot consist of space, time, and matter. It must be transcendent to be able to create those things. It must also be personal, to be able to will something into existence. So a spaceless, timeless, immaterial, and personal being. What does that sound like? God. God by definition is the uncaused causer, unmoved mover, and uncreated creator. It’s not my fault that you hate him, take that up with him, not us.
      Also, I feel it’s necessary to point out that you made an objective truth-claim when you said “grow up and live in reality for once.” Well, let me ask you this. How do you that your subjective perception of what reality is, is the true reality that everyone needs to adhere to? You’re assuming that your subjective opinion of ‘religion being unnecessary and false’ is the true reality. Your comments make it very apparent, that you believe your own personal perception of reality and your own opinions, are objectively correct. And you won’t accept or tolerate anyone who believes differently. Isn’t that the fundamental definition of bigotry? Being intolerant of opposing beliefs?
      So, in the process of telling us that what we believe is false, you claim that your own perception of reality is the true way of life, and you’re intolerant of everyone who disagrees with you. That’s not only hypocritical, it’s also highly unreasonable and bigoted.

      @@lepardpaw The Bible is called the Living Word, as God can use it to speak to people in many ways. If I chose to limit God’s word to only context, then I wouldn’t hear His voice and I would only be reading the Bible as a historical document. If you put it in the literal context, Solomon is basically saying that you shouldn’t steal land from your neighbor. But, even scholars believe it could also mean, that our ancestors have gone through the same struggles in society that we have, and that they have set up rules and laws protecting us from the same struggles. Now dealing with Marxism, as Christians we’ve already rejected the theory, and apologists have even written books condemning it. Why would we want to move the boundary stones that these wise men have already put up? Do we know something that they don’t know about it? Marxism has NOT changed, it’s the same gift wrapped up in different contextual wrapping paper. We need to listen to what they have to say, and not be foolish enough to buy into what they’re selling.

      Maybe you should condemn the racism of the white church in propagating slavery & racism & white supremacy. & trying to shut down MLK. You are scared of cancel culture because it threatens white power structure. white conservative racist ideas must be dismantled.

      @@elliotpolanco159 The white church? What is that? I don't know of any "white church" sir. All I know of is God's church, which has literally zero to do with race and everything to do with spirit. Personally, I condemn racism regardless of who's perpetrating it, so why isolate condemning racism to one particular group when all races of humans are guilty of it? It's wrong for everyone, and all need to repent of it. Spend some time studying the Word, and it would become clear to you that what you are saying does not come from God and isn't biblical. You're mixing up human issues with God, and that mistake is yours.

      It's also funny that you've posted this copy and paste on several Christian videos, which means you're intentionally trolling, and not remotely interested in truth or true understanding. Skin color has become your 'god' , and I am sad to tell you that the god you've created will never save or help you. I'll pray for you though.

    Wow! Thank you for that poignant discussion! It was and is very helpful in dealing with this wave of lying socialist propaganda. I was bullied as a substitute teacher and threatened with being blocked out of the school system because I did not call the classroom teacher, who was not there, "they" instead of "she." That was my intro into the new language they are forcing on people. So, this discussion is critical and I appreciate the specific biblical concepts mentioned and that are strengthening me in my defense of truth. Thanks!!

      "Jesus said, I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. He will glorify me"

    The other day I read that a leader of one of the Christian governmental parties here in my country protecting the women who go to abortion mills. Now it's officially forbidden to demonstrate near abortion clinics, because the women have it emotionally difficult enough, this Christian leader said, and needn't be harrassed.

  • @lauratim4724
    @lauratim4724 3 года назад +5

    Thanks for this thoughtful video. As a Christian I think there’s so much to wade through and part of my concern is that Christians in America are so entrenched in the politics of America that we use “left” or “conservative” lenses rather than Jesus lenses. My call is to follow and obey Jesus regardless of how it “fits” into a political position. I am called to build the kingdom, not a capitalist or Marxist society.
    As a Christian individual, I am responsible for myself and my family. BUT Jesus calls me to love my neighbor. The Good Samaritan shows us the example of a person who goes out of their way to take care of someone in need. Jesus freely gave the loaves and fishes to anyone who was there and he didn’t charge anyone.
    As Christians, do we have a responsibility to our neighbors and community, to lift one another up?
    Is it just that in a wealthy country like ours that a family has to go bankrupt to treat their child for cancer? Can we find a better way?
    Are we called to rail against people with opposite political beliefs than us or to love or serve them?
    Does God or Jesus spend their time and effort rebuking the practices of unbelievers OR believers/Gods people that are misbehaving?
    Is it important to simply be truthful about the roots of our nation? Can we admit the atrocities and also see the good things that have happened?
    As Christians, should we listen and make space for black brothers and sisters who have experienced racism in their lives?
    You seem to be adamant about talking about the current administration but no thoughts towards the evils present in the previous administration and the aftermath (January 6th). This all feels very disingenuous.
    There’s a lot of time spent on the speck in liberal’s eye but not the plank in conservatives’ eye.
