In this episode of LIVE FREE, Pastors Carlos Erazo and Paul Cunningham tackle one of the most confusing questions Christians face today: What’s actually sin… and what’s just man-made rules? Walking through Matthew 23, they expose the danger of hypocrisy and legalism—then take it straight into real-life debates around alcohol, tattoos, and weed. Is it actually freedom… or are we just calling it that? This conversation will challenge how you think about obedience, influence, and what it really means to follow Jesus in today’s culture.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- The difference between biblical obedience and legalism
- Why hypocrisy doesn’t just affect you—it impacts the next generation
- What the Bible actually says about alcohol (and where the line is)
- How to think through gray areas like tattoos and weed
- A simple framework to know: Is this wise… or just allowed?
Stand firm. Think biblically. Live free.
