Should Christians Judge Each Other? Steve Lawson and the Problem with Lordship Salvation
This week, we talk about whether or not Christians should evaluate each other’s actions, what Jesus means when he says “you will know them by their fruit”, and the difference between clear, biblically-defined sin, and subjective behaviors.
We also discuss the recent controversy around Steve Lawson, how Christians should respond to the failures of public figures, and what it means for a pastor to be “disqualified” from ministry.
