In today’s episode, I discuss essential Biblical truth and some of the labels we tend to attach to theological systems. When are these truths or even labels worth dividing over, and when are we too divisive in our approach?

Ephesians 2

A key question for our consideration today is specifically the “why” behind eternal damnation. Why are people eternally damned? We look at Ephesians 2 today and at our being dead in our sin. Just how dead are we? Everyone who has been born on this earth is born in sin. We are all born sinners, and we all sin.

God loves us while we are dead. And yet, the reason a person is consigned to eternal damnation is unbelief. Romans 2:5-8, John 12:48, and John 3:18 point us to this truth.

Salvation

Does God offer salvation to everyone? Who does God quicken? Is grace irresistible to both the willing and the unwilling? Is forced love or coerced love possible? Does whoever mean whoever in Scripture, or does it mean something else? Does accepting a free gift work toward salvation?

In this important episode, I discuss some of the challenging passages in Scripture that are used to defend various theological positions. While these truths are complex, there is beauty in all of Scripture that we shouldn’t miss. The beautiful nature of God is found in these truths, and I discuss them in this episode of Relentless Truth.
