195. THIS THING CALLED CHARACTER: Goodness vs Sinful Living

In the fifth instalment of the character series, Olawunmi Brigue discusses the concept of 'goodness' or right living as outlined in Galatians 5:22, contrasting it with sinful living. The episode delves into the importance of living right, highlighting that while salvation and access to God's inheritance are not based on works, living right is crucial for preserving oneself from the consequences of sin. Using scriptural examples such as the prodigal son and the rich young ruler, Olawunmi highlights the consequences of not living right and emphasises the need to distinguish between accessing God's promises through faith and living a morally upright life to avoid sin's detrimental effects. 00:59 What is Goodness? 02:08 The Importance of Upright Living 02:20 Salvation and Righteousness 05:20 Right Believing vs. Right Living 07:13 The Nature of Sin 08:58 Accessing Inheritance Through Right Believing 19:57 Why Live Right? 25:02 The Story of the Prodigal Son 34:35 The Older Brother's Perspective 38:28 Understanding the Consequences of Sin Olawunmi Brigue, host of the SuperAbundant Life podcast, is a certified executive and transformational life coach, and the founder of Luminous membership, a Personal & Spiritual Growth Hub for women who desire to build BOTH a highflying career and a wholesome family without sacrificing their wellbeing or personal fulfilment.
