Jesus at 2AM - A Humorous, Intelligent Look at the Bible, Church History & the Life of Faith
Religion & Spirituality:Spirituality
Name a hot topic - from abortion to refugee resettlement to gender identity - and someone in the church will declare "what the Bible says" about the matter. (And where there are 2 Christians there are usually 3 passionate, dissonant conclusions!)
So how do we determine what scripture is trying to say? Or, to put it another way, how do we build a theology? How do we move from individual passages to a clear sense of God's intent?
Here we'll take slavery as a case study and see what scripture is trying to say.
The biblical passages referenced in this sermon are:
Exodus 6:5-6, 20:8-11(NRSV) Colossians 3:9-11, 22-4:1 (NRSV)Want more content from Jesus at 2AM?? Learn how to become a patron!
