This week on the Straight Truth Podcast, Dr. Josh Philpot shares with Dr. Richard Caldwell that pressure and tension are rising in the culture. We find it in businesses, our workplaces, and all around us. There is this pressure for everyone everywhere to capitulate to the feelings and beliefs of others. This is especially true when it comes to the issues of gender and sexuality. Dr. Philpot asks Dr. Caldwell about how Christians should and can prepare to respond to these things. How can Christians respond lovingly even as some in authority over us attempt to force immorality upon us? What should Christians do when they are pressured and compelled to speak in ways that are not truthful? How should we react to these things?  Pastor Caldwell reminds us that Christians are to be innocent as doves and shrewd as serpents, but in all things, convictional. As Christians, we made a choice when we received Christ. By the grace of God, through the gospel of God, we saw that Jesus is Lord and received Him as our Savior. As our Savior, King, and Lord – He is our ultimate authority. We follow Him, we submit to Him, we obey Him. We hold to convictions that are based on the Word of God. Whatever comes to challenge His authority, we yield to Him; we follow Him.  We do this imperfectly and often with trembling, knowing that obedience to Christ can bring slander, ridicule, and persecution in this world. But at the end of the day, we are not cowards. What characterizes people who will be in hell one day is that they are cowardly. What characterizes those who know Christ is they cannot deny what they have come to see.  When it comes to the workplace and how we handle ourselves there, it will be different for each of us. We are there to do a job, paid to do a job, and that is what we must focus on.
