Episode Overview
- Faith in Jesus Christ is essential for redemption.
- Relying solely on human performance is a delusion.
- Living by the law alone leads to self-centredness and sin.
- True righteousness comes from faith, not moral obedience.
- Patient continuance in doing good should be through faith.
Living the ordinary Christian life means disaster; living the special Christian life of faith in Jesus leads to eternal life
In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin takes a deep dive into Romans Chapter 2, unravelling the complexities of faith versus works. He discusses the delusion of relying on human performance and the false confidence that comes from merely adhering to the law. Colin passionately explains that living a life of faith in Jesus Christ is the true path to eternal life, as opposed to living a 'natural' life which is inherently sinful.
He touches on the historical context, addressing the Jewish people's misplaced confidence in the law and how it applies to modern Christians as well. Through patient continuance in doing good, not by the law but by faith, believers seek glory, honour, and immortality. Colin’s reflections on Paul's teachings bring clarity to these theological conundrums, making it relatable for those struggling with addiction or seeking spiritual guidance.
By the end of the episode, you'll have a deeper understanding of why faith in Jesus is essential for redemption and how it transcends mere moral obedience. Tune in to grasp how salvation through Christ offers a way out of the mess we find ourselves in.
