About this episode
Our culture is allergic to distinctions, definitions, and doors. The spirit of the age wants every wall torn down, every standard erased, and every door thrown open with no guard posted. This manifests itself in our politics, with calls for open borders. It shows up in our ethics, with the blurring of every conceivable line between right and wrong. And it has massively infected the church, creating a squishy, sentimental evangelicalism that wants a Jesus with open arms but no sharp words, a gospel of welcome but no call to repentance, and a communion table that is less a fenced feast for the covenant family and more a public potluck for anyone who wanders in off the street. But the God of the Bible is a God of order, and order requires distinctions. He creates by separating light from darkness and land from sea.
