Charlie Kirk Won't Say 'Master'

Send us Fan MailPrepare yourself for a humdinger of offense on The Consider Podcast as we discuss- Toilet Time topics- Human wisdom preaching of the gospel- Charlie Kirk and the Muslims Praying- Women calling their husbands master.- Fox News host fired over asking women to coffee- With a touch of King County ProsecutorAll of this and more in the year of our Lord 2025.Have you ever wondered why certain biblical truths trigger such visceral reactions, even among professing Christians? In this provocative episode, we dive deep into the contrast between teaching the gospel with human wisdom versus proclaiming it with the unadulterated power of the Holy Spirit.Our conversation begins by establishing a crucial distinction—some discussions are merely "toilet room issues" meant to be flushed away, while others belong in the "prayer room" where we must remain uncompromising. This framework helps us navigate the complex landscape of modern discourse, where opinions often masquerade as divine truth.We examine Charlie Kirk's recent controversy over Muslim prayer gatherings in American cities, revealing how even well-intentioned cultural warriors often misidentify the root problem. Drawing from Deuteronomy 28 and 1 Peter 4:17, we explore the biblical pattern that judgment begins with God's people, not with outsiders. When a nation faces foreign influence, Scripture consistently points to the unfaithfulness of God's household as the primary cause.The most challenging segment addresses 1 Peter 3:5-6, where wives are instructed to call their husbands "master" or "lord." This teaching proves so offensive to modern sensibilities that it triggered actual legal persecution against our ministry—a real-world demonstration of what happens when the gospel is preached without the buffer of human wisdom. We share personal stories of how this stance led to our church being driven out of town through coordinated efforts of prosecutors who couldn't tolerate biblical gender roles.We close with a disturbing parallel—a Fox News contributor fired simply for asking a woman to coffee, illustrating how modern culture has weaponized interactions between men and women. This mirrors our experience with false accusations and targeted harassment against those who testified on our behalf.The gospel's power lies precisely in those teachings that most challenge our cultural assumptions. Until we're willing to be crucified to human wisdom and embrace the offense of the cross, we'll continue preaching a powerless version of Christianity. Join us in rediscovering the transformative message that doesn't conform to culture but confronts it.www.consider.info
