JESUS IS FREEDOM! Christianity is Not Oppressive

101 min • 19 augusti 2023

My first solo episode of Heaven & Healing Podcast in a while!

 

This episode is for believers and unbelievers alike.

 

For the continued H&H listeners, I put this one together for you to send to your unsaved loved… but there is also an important message for you here, too — about what being a follower of Christ actually demands of you. So I pray this is as edifying for you, as it is hopefully inviting, to unbelievers.

 

For the unbeliever… I explain that I understand if you have church hurt or if the doctrine of man has left a bad taste in your mouth for Christianity and address the extremely valid issue with this… With that, I talk about how a lot of churches focus on your sin ONLY, failing to expand on the LOVE that DIED for your sin… So many leave feeling condemned, rather than convicted.

 

Condemnation comes from shame; conviction comes from love, leading to true faith and repentance.

 

My goal with this episode, unbeliever, is not to tell you how wicked you are and that you need Jesus… My goal is to tell you that DESPITE how wicked we ALL are *without* Him, He DIED FOR YOU ANYWAY because your value to Him is so immeasurably demonstrative and His love for you so abundant that He chose you offer you eternal salvation even if you would never choose to receive it.

 

By talking about the Lord’s love for you and the Truth of His character, it is my deepest prayer that you would come to a revelation of the Father’s love and fall to your knees in surrender to Him… or, at the least, that a seed of faith would be planted that the Holy Spirit would use to do a work in you and bear the fruit of later.

 

I tackle common opposition, to break the chains of lies that keep you shackled from knowing the Truth… such as: that Christianity is self-righteous, that the Bible is a myth and/or written to control the masses, that religion is shoved down our throat, that “religion” is an oppressive rulebook to follow, that God is an ego-maniac, authoritative dictator and more…

 

I genuinely pray that the Lord will use this episode for His glory, and for the good of all who listen or watch.
