Show Notes:

 

Eric Schneiderman & Not Being a Hypocrite:

  • When women make “me-too” arguments, they are assuming moral absolutes exist
  • The whole “me-too” movement is radically relativistic when it comes to ethics
  • You can’t adopt a “do what you feel” worldview and argue that men are wrong for molesting or raping
  • If there is no God there’s no such thing as a hypocrite
  • In the Christian cosmos hypocrisy is a sin
  • In the “me-too” world there is no such thing as sin

 

Reformation Worship:

  • Written by Gibson & Earngy
  • Fabulous resource on reformational liturgics
  • They have assembled some of the classic reformed orders of worship

 

Amathes:

  • The word amathes means unleared
  • Mentioned once in the NT (2 Peter 3:16)
  • Those who are unlearned and yet gather to themselves the prerogatives of learning — which would include the authority to interpret the letters of Paul — are demonstrating that they are unlearned for a reason
  • They are unstable souls, and their ignorance is sinful
