Shownotes Transcript

Greg answers questions about whether Jesus is dependent on the Father, whether he should be quoting someone who has a mistaken view on homosexuality, whether it’s ever okay for Christians to stand up for their rights, helping a non-believing couple move in together, and circular reasoning.  

Topics:

Is Jesus dependent on the Father (which would mean he can’t be God), or is he independent (which would mean there are two Gods)? (08:00)

- Should you be quoting Andrew Klavan given his views on homosexuality? (23:00)

- As Christians, is it ever right to stand up for our rights, or should we always turn our cheek and suffer for Christ? (30:00)

- What would you do if a non-believing couple asked you to help them move in together? (41:00)

- Can you help me understand the fallacy of circular reasoning, and is saying “the Bible tells me so” an example of it? (49:00)
