Description

Earlier this year, John MacArthur said that Martin Luther King Jr. was “a nonbeliever who misrepresented everything about Christ and the gospel.” Last week, Justin Giboney responded with an article in CT explaining why MacArthur was wrong about MLK. This leads Phil, Kaitlyn, and Skye to ask when is it appropriate to define who is, and who is not, a true Christian, and what criteria should we use? Theologian Matthew Bates is back to discuss his new book, “Why the Gospel?” He defines six popular “malformed” gospels, and why bypassing the importance of Jesus’ kingship is dangerous for the church. Also this week—A Christian musician from Ireland claims Taylor Swift is satanic, and beware of the bonnacon!   Holy Post Plus Getting Schooled - Changing Minds https://www.patreon.com/posts/99086536/ 0:00  - Sponsor - World Relief - Visit https://worldrelief.org/holypost/ to download your family refugee guide and learn more about the Path Community 0:56 - Intro 2:46 - Show Starts 5:05 - Theme Song 5:27 - Sponsor - Go to www.hiyahealth.com/HOLYPOST to receive 50% off your first order 6:34 - News of the Butt 12:47 - Taylor Swift Satanic Ritual 21:57 - John MacArthur on Martin Luther King Jr. 48:46 - Should We Ask Who Is or Isn’t a Christian? 51:23 - Sponsor - Better Help - Get 10% off your first month at www.betterhelp.com/holypost 52:21 - Sponsor - Tyndale - Order the Study Life Application Study Bible today at  https://hubs.la/Q02l1Pmg0 53:25 - Interview 54:19 - Why the Gospel? 59:49 - The Kinghood of Jesus 1:06:41- Christ Installed on the Throne 1:37:43 - End Credits   Links Mentioned in the News Segment: Animal with ‘Amazing Flatulence’ Found in Medieval Book https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn04rd314lro   Taylor Swift is Engaging in Satanic Rituals in Live Shows, Christian Artist Claims: ‘Music is Dangerous’ https://www.christianpost.com/news/taylor-swift-engaging-in-satanic-rituals-in-shows-musician-claims.html   Why John MacArthur is Wrong About MLK https://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2024/march-web-only/why-john-macarthur-is-wrong-mlk-tgc-woke-justice-gospel.html   Mass Deportation of Immigrants Destroys More Native-Born American Jobs Than They Create https://reason.com/volokh/2024/03/10/mass-deportations-of-immigrants-destroy-more-native-born-american-jobs-than-they-create/   Other resources: Why the Gospel?
