The Breakdown: Truth Matters

Debating Cults, Goodness Apart from God, and Spiritual Gifts

On this episode, we're back answering more of your questions! What is the best way to dialogue with cults? How can we respond to false doctrine from Jehovah's Witnesses if the come to our doorstep? Since all goodness comes from God, can there be goodness apart from God? And regarding the gifts of the Spirit, can we attain more than we have already been given? Or does God give a finite amount? 

Revisiting Modesty & Disagreeing Agreeably

On this episode we revisit the subject of modesty. What does it mean when the Bible instructs us to be modest in our speech? Does it go beyond what would appear obvious? What about other areas of life we haven't covered? Should women wear head coverings? Also, when we have brothers or sisters that leave a fellowship over doctrinal issues, should we continue to make that I priority?

“Good Intentions,” and Entertainment

On this episode of The Breakdown we address two broad topics. First, how d oone’s intentions matter when juxtaposed with behavioral changes? How does God judge our works versus the motivations behind said works? Second, when it comes to what entertainment Christians expose themselves to or consume, what is our guide for what is appropriate and what is not? How are we to discern what content might “stumble” us and others? 

Jeffrey Dahmer, When is God “Done” With Us, and the Authority to Forgive

Spurned on by the popularity of the new Netflix series, we discuss the life and apparent faith conversion of Jeffrey Dahmer. Could God really allow such an evil person into Heaven? And, when people say “the reason you’re alive is because God is not done with you yet,” do they have any Biblical merits for such a statement? Lastly, where does the authority to forgive sins come from? Could a human power have such authority?

Our ”Rights,” Dichotomy of Consequences, and Halloween

On this episode we're back to answering more of your questions! First, how should we navigate the exercise of our "rights," given by either God or man, within the context of our calling as Christians? When should we exercise them and when should we voluntarily give them up? Second, one of our listeners has stated a difficulty with referring to an unplanned pregnancy as a "consequence" of sin. Does the Bible give us any insight into how to look at a consequence of sin that is also a joyful blessing? Lastly, as Halloween approaches, what are we as Christians supposed to think and do with this holiday?
