A Word Fitly Spoken

Unequally Yoked: When Christians Platform False Teachers

Recently, there have been two notable instances of theologically conservative, Reformed Christians welcoming in false teachers, introducing them to their audiences, and, by doing so, essentially giving them their seal of approval. And they’re not the only ones. This kind of thing happens all the time with high profile Christians, parachurch ministries, and churches. We'll explore the Scriptures that explain why this is a sin and harmful to Christians, the church, and the false teachers, themselves.

Christmas Dinner with the Sexual Sinner

With the holiday season now upon us, we thought we'd share one of our most downloaded episodes. How should a Christian relate to someone in their lives who is obviously living in sexual sin, without appearing to condone this marriage? Thankfully, God does not leave us without answers. As with every other issue in life, our thinking, our words, and our actions must be shaped by and in submission to the authority of Scripture. Not public opinion. Not political agendas. Not our own personal feelings, opinions, and experiences. Scripture.
