The Prophets weren’t killed for being right, they were killed for being first. Willingness to stand for truth, before anyone else, will always get you in trouble.

Friendship with God always means enmity with the world.

“The meanest and most feeble, who have just begun to trust the Lord, are as much entitled to be protected as those who have long and faithfully been his servants. It is our duty to defend the afflicted, who, like the Gibeonites, are brought into trouble on our account, or for the sake of the gospel. Joshua would not forsake his new vassals. How much less shall our true Joshua fail those who trust in Him!” -Matthew Henry

In this episode of Theology Applied, Aaron Renn joins the show to discuss one of Tim Keller’s final contributions to Evangelicalism - a strategy for Complementarians to compromise by attempting to bridge the gap with the Egalitarians.

There’s a reason Jesus said we should simply let our yes be yes, and our no be no. God will hold us to our word.

Does Scripture condemn all swearing? Or is there a particular type of corrupt swearing that Jesus specifically had in mind?

"[Joshua had his war chiefs to place their feet on the necks of the five Amorite kings]... not in a contemptuous and insulting manner, not through vanity and haughtiness, but for the mortification of the kings; and as a token of their extreme subjection, and as proper punishment for their crimes of idolatry, tyranny, and cruelty; and by way of terror to others of the kings of Canaan that should fight against them, and as a pledge and confirmation of the subjection of the rest, as well as to fulfill the promises and predictions of God.” -John Gill

Jesus commanded us not to swear at all, but to simply let our yes be yes and our no be no. And yet, Christians still go under oath in the military, in legal courts, and even many of our business dealings/contracts. So what’s the deal? Are we all in sin?

There is a connection the continual sin of a people and the land they live on being cursed.

Og, king of Bashan, had a bed that was 13.5 feet long, 6 feet wide, and made of solid iron. Who was this ancient giant king?
