The World and Worldliness: Christian Freedom and Christ | Selected Texts | 04/27/2025 by
Living Truth Christian Fellowship Podcast
In this compelling episode, Pastor Karl dives into Romans 14, exploring what he calls "Applied Christianity." This chapter challenges both seasoned and new believers to navigate the balance between personal freedom in Christ and public restraint for the sake of others. Pastor Karl unpacks the concept of spiritual maturity, emphasizing private liberty and public restriction as biblical principles rooted in love. He addresses the tension between those strong in faith, who live in the freedom of grace, and those weak in faith, who adhere to stricter rules, using the historical context of meat sacrificed to idols to illustrate disputable matters. Through practical examples like alcohol, Halloween, and homeschooling, Pastor Karl highlights how non-essential issues should not divide the church. He introduces the "law of love," urging listeners to prioritize others' faith over personal freedoms, and explains the Bema Seat judgment, where Christians are rewarded for their sacrifices, not judged for salvation. Join Pastor Karl for a thought-provoking discussion on living out faith with grace, love, and unity.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 9:00am & 10:30am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

Dr. Joey Dodson unpacks the commonly misunderstood passage of Romans 7, revealing how the dominant interpretation has mistakenly led Christians to identify with defeat rather than victory in Christ.• Historical interpretation shows earliest Greek readers understood Paul was impersonating someone else, not describing his own post-conversion experience• Augustine shifted the interpretation during disputes with Pelagius, influencing Luther and Calvin• The "I" in Romans 7 is completely dominated by sin, with no mention of the Holy Spirit• Romans 7 likely portrays Adam/Israel under law's condemnation, not the normal Christian life• Paul presents sin as a cosmic tyrant, not just individual actions• Christians are already sanctified but not fully expressing that reality• Our identity is primarily as sons and daughters, not sinners• Community and the Holy Spirit are essential for freedom – isolation keeps us in darkness• Grace doesn't just forgive sin – it frees us from sin's powerThe gospel brings liberation from sin's dominion, not just forgiveness. Our struggle isn't because we must sin, but because we choose to. We've been delivered from the domain of darkness into his marvelous light.
Can something be 'good' and not 'pleasing to God'? For example, if an unbeliever cares for the poor, would it be correct to say that their action was 'good' but not 'pleasing to God', because of their unbelief? Or does their unbelief make it 'evil'? Are there 'good' actions and 'evil' actions, or 'obedient' and 'disobedient' actions or is it just 'obedience' vs 'disobedience'? You mentioned the idea of 'imperfect fruit' for those who have genuine faith - does that mean our faith in Jesus who makes us right with God enables us to have the ability to do good? But we still don't always do good? If freedom is achieved by living through faith in Jesus, what does this look like in actions, day to day life etc. If it is not by laws/rules and restraint? How would I present this to a non-Christian friend?

What does it mean that Christians are "called to freedom"? What has Christ freed us to?
2025.01.19 Christian Freedom IV | I Corinthians 10:23-11:1 | John Wood by EP Church Annapolis
It's no secret that many Christians feel disoriented when it comes to understanding the relationship between faith and politics. Much of this confusion comes from the fact that we've adopted a modern conception of freedom. To the modern mind freedom refers to the ability to do whatever you want, but what if that assumption is wrong? What if Christianity provides a concept of freedom that's not only true, but beneficial for the common good? Brad Littlejohn joins us to talk about a Christian conception of freedom, a proper understanding of religious liberty, and the role of technology in shaping our society for good or ill.

2024.11.10 Christian Freedom: For the Sake of the Gospel | 1 Cor. 9:1-27 | John Wood by EP Church Annapolis
William Penn famously said, “Those people who will not be governed by God will be ruled by tyrants.” Are we witnessing this happening in our country today? Are more Americans, perhaps unknowingly, choosing to surrender their freedoms and loyalty to the elites on the far Left who seek to undermine our Republic? America is undoubtedly facing one of the most challenging elections in its history that could determine its future. In this episode, Jason explores the significance of our freedoms, the challenges we confront, and our critical role in protecting the values that define our nation.
