Podcasts about Orthopraxy

In this episode, Jason Elvington and Will Adams join the podcast to help us kick off a new mini-series on Big Words. With our Big Words episodes, we'll tackle terms and phrases common to the Christian vernacular that aren't so easy to understand. Today, we launch the plane with two related words: "Orthodoxy" and "Orthopraxy"

When it comes to the Christian life Orthodoxy (right belief), Orthopraxy (right practice), and Doxology (worship) work together like a 3-fold braided cord. If any of the 3 are compromised, the whole cord suffers. So, at Westminster, we don't just commit to theological education in the abstract. Some might be tempted to say "I'm just going to study theology and not worry about my moral life, my personal relationship with God, or the quality of my worship. I'll deal with those things later." To do so is actually to misunderstand theology in the first place. You cannot have good theology without a heart for the Lord. In this episode Nate Shannon sits down with Jerry McFarland to discuss how Westminster commits the sanctification of our student body.

To live as a strong, fruitful Christian, we need the local assembly. From diving into the meaning of 'ecclesia' to stressing the need for unity, good communication, and prayer, Dr. Gabe explores the essence of what it means to be the churchIn "Weak Church", Dr. Gabe discusses the roles of the universal and local church, the pitfalls of spiritual isolation, and the crucial importance of community. He also tackles judgments, doctrinal integrity, and the essential role of prayer in a church that thrives.Support the showText encounteratl to 94000 to stay up-to-date on all things Encounter.Worship with EncounterSundays at 9 AM ET | Wednesdays at 7:30 PM ETSupport EncounterText egive to 77977 Connect with EncounterFacebook | Instagram | TikTok | YouTube | WebsiteConnect with Dr. GabeInstagram | YouTube | Website

Fetus John the Baptist knew exactly who Jesus was, according to Luke. Adult John the Baptist sends emissaries to ask Jesus who he is. Jesus does not answer John's question, but rather instructs the question-askers to simply report what they see and what they hear. It seems that, according to Jesus, his identity must be shown, enacted, embodied for it to be real. Similarly, our Anabaptist faith has a centuries-long history of being done, enacted, embodied. Our faith is a lived faith and has traditionally been proclaimed more in deed than in word. This is why the decision of our denomination to be the named plaintiff in a lawsuit against the Dept. of Homeland Security (Mennonite Church USA et al. v. United States Department of Homeland Security et al.) is completely in line with our 500-year history of following Jesus. Because our faith IS caring for our neighbor. So when the U.S. Government tries to prevent us from doing that, the free exercise of our religion is compromised and we must resist.Sermon begins at minute marker 6:18Luke 7:18-35ResourcesBibleWorm podcast: Episode 626 – Are You Really the One?, Amy Robertson and Robert Williamson, JrIris de León-Hartshorn, “Our Anabaptist Witness as Mennonites,” (theological basis for legal action taken by Mennonite Church USA - see link below) February 12, 2025.“MC USA and more than two dozen Christian and Jewish denominations and associations sue to protect religious freedoms,” February 11, 2025.Mary H.

Attention Youth Leaders!- Start The Youth Leader Course Today

Having right doctrine is important, but it's not enough. That why orthopraxy (having correct practices) matters. People like to debate theology. Many people believe that Christians should make an effort to persuade other Christians to their understanding of scripture - and the bible is clear, while pointless debates are foolish, persuading others to understand sound doctrine is a good and important thing to do. Right doctrine is how the church is made one. Unity comes from the right and complete understanding of who Christ is. But many are satisfied with only having right doctrine. They do not go on to apply it to their lives and to have right practices. And when orthopraxy is ignored, it is reasonable to ask whether the doctrine was ever really and correctly understood. In every field of study, there is a recognized difference between abstract knowledge and application. And as anyone who has tried to build a building or follow a recipe for the first time knows, applying knowledge can be much more difficult than obtaining it. In this episode, we want to discuss why right doctrine is insufficient. While the wicked do not love right doctrine, it is almost always actions that they find most offensive. When Christ came to his own, they would not receive him, and while many of them were offended by his doctrine, what the religious leaders were most offended by was that he revealed them to be hypocrites, not just by his words, but by his deeds. We also want to talk about how orthropraxy and orthodoxy cannot be separated from one another. And when we try to separate them, we often lose what doctrine we have or create practices that teach a false doctrine. We can see this in how the world describes “servant leadership”. Leaders really should serve those they are called to lead, but they also still have authority. As the world tries to destroy Biblical manhood and womanhood, even among those who have correct doctrine the practice of male head of household and male representative authority has been discarded and as a result the doctrine has grown weaker. So please join as a we discuss this and many other points related to the question: “Why is orthopraxy, which means to practice what is right, important?” Listen to the audio version here: https://theconqueringtruth.com/2024/09/right-doctrine-is-not-enough-why-orthopraxy-matters-ep-187-audio/ Timecodes 00:00:00 Example to the World 00:07:22 Honoring with Obedience 00:19:55 Linking Doctrine and Practice 00:29:39 Walking in the Flesh 00:37:51 Revelation of False Believers 00:44:11 Hypocrisy 00:53:48 What to Do Production of Reformation Baptist Church of Youngsville, NC Permanent Hosts - Dan Horn, Charles Churchill and Joshua Horn Technical Director - Timothy Kaiser Theme Music - Gabriel Hudelson

Love God with your entire being and your neighbor as yourself.

What you believe matters 100%.  What you live matters 100%.  There is no separation between the two. Orthodoxy.  Orthopraxy.

Well, it better be in Christ. Paul refutes the Colossian heresy by emphasizing Christ alone as the foundation of our faith, and how that faith is lived out through right belief and right practice. Our works, efforts, and merits count for nothing in the salvation equation.

Summary In this conversation, Tim and Pete Enns respond to a video discussing deconstruction by Alisa Childers, Tim Barnett, and Sean McDowell. They explore the concept of a biblical worldview and its limitations and the definition and significance of deconstruction. They also discuss the role of biblical authority and the challenges of interpreting and applying scripture.  Pete and Tim explore the nuances of doubt and apologetics, the clash between modernism and postmodernism, the complexity of biblical interpretation, and the challenges of biblical inerrancy. They discuss the role of doubt in faith, the limitations of historical claims in the Bible, and the need for a nuanced understanding of biblical authority. The conversation delves into the rhetoric of war and the labeling of deconstruction as the doctrine of demons. Takeaways The concept of a biblical worldview can be limiting and oversimplifies the complexity of faith and theology. Biblical authority is a topic of theological discussion and interpretation, and it is important to recognize the diverse and historical context of the Bible. The role of personal experience and subjectivity should be acknowledged and respected in discussions of faith and theology. Doubt can play a positive role in the development of faith, and it should be embraced and explored rather than suppressed. The interpretation of the Bible should consider the historical context and the complexities of biblical texts, rather than relying on a simplistic view of biblical inerrancy. The church needs to address and confront issues of spiritual abuse and hold leaders accountable for their actions. Orthopraxy, the practice of faith, is often overlooked in favor of orthodoxy, the right beliefs. Deconstruction is a personal and often painful process that should be met with empathy and support. The rhetoric of war and labeling deconstruction as the doctrine of demons can be harmful and divisive. There is a need for further discussion and exploration of these topics to foster understanding and growth.

How should we as Christians address the culture at hand? Should we face them head-on or be more concerned with our individual Christian communities? Today I talk about two options we have as the church- Theonomy or the Benedict Option. Both of them are seeking to figure out how we can weather the cultural storm.

Would C.S. Lewis have loved the Super Mario movie? I give a resounding YES. Lewis loved a good myth. In his book Miracles, Lewis defined myth as, “at its best, a real though unfocused gleam of divine truth falling on human imagination.” All myths point to Jesus, and Jesus is the myth that becomes fact.

Phylicia discusses why Christians who are into theology can become so "mean" by looking at the call to both sound teaching and gracious delivery. We look at the three tiers of doctrine, the goal of maturity, and how to understand denominational differences. This episode is based on the last chapter of Every Woman a Theologian. 

On this episode, I sit down with David Milroy. David is the pastor of New Albany Presbyterian here in Central Ohio. We sat down and talked about a myriad of topics. My biggest question is, how has being a pastor changed over the last 20 years? David shares how over the years, the cultural battles have grown, but the root has always concerned the Truth of Scripture. Is the bible just a reference book or revelation?

For additional notes and resources check out Douglas' website.Notes on James 2:14-26:The word “deeds” is more palatable for many religious people than “works,” with is association with trying to earn our salvation.Vs.14-16 seem to address a real situation among the believers to whom James is writing. See also 1 John 3:16-18, Matt 25:31-46, and Gal 6:10.Keep in mind also the likely famine conditions in Judea at the time of James's letter. 2 Cor 8-9 and Acts 11:28 refer to this hardship.I admit it's difficult to know who exactly is speaking in vs. 18, or the exact point (though I assume it's fully in line with the thought of vs.14-17 and 19-26).Demons have mere intellectual assent (v.19).The Shema‘  (Hear, O Israel...) is found in Deut 6:4.Were some wealthy persons allowed into the fellowship whose behavior did not match their profession of faith?Orthodoxy (right belief) isn't enough. Orthopraxy (right behavior) is essential; it completes and confirms orthopraxy.There is no such thing as faith in a vacuumBoth persons were proselytes to the faith.Both were commended for faith because faith was complemented by deeds.A widely twisted and ignored verse is 2:24Liberals often accept that this is a “contradiction”—that James and Paul are somehow at odds with each other.Evangelicals – ignore v.24, esp. when they hold to the “once saved, always saved” teaching. Many evangelicals and other Protestants hold to the slogan "faith alone," which does not appear in the N.T.Further: for "Why I am Not an Evangelical—Or Am I?" please click here. For "Why I am Not a Protestant," please click here.Re: v.17, see Titus 1:15-16.Next: “The Magic Wand & the Touch"James then offers two examples from the OT, from Genesis and Joshua, in vs. 21-27.
