Episode 24 - Error and Heresy - Jerry Wragg
from Conversations with Pastors Hosted by Grace Immanuel Bible Church
It's inevitable that we'll encounter believers who hold different convictions than we do. This week, Jerry Wragg challenges us to think carefully about the crucial distinction between error and heresy, and how we should respond with both truth and love. We discover that not every disagreement is a gospel-threatening issue—some matters are essential to salvation itself, touching on the nature of Christ, the character of God, the authority of Scripture, and the doctrine of salvation. These are the immovable foundations we cannot compromise. Yet there exists a broader category of secondary issues where genuine believers may disagree while still maintaining fellowship in Christ. We're reminded that speaking truth doesn't mean abandoning love—rather, true love compels us to share truth with patience, gentleness, and humility. As we navigate disagreements with family, friends, and fellow believers, we're called to ground our convictions firmly in Scripture's clarity while extending grace where we have liberty, always remembering that we too are learners under the authority of God's Word.
