Noahide Laws & The Pledge of Allegiance - Ep. 965 - August 26, 2026

What happens when a proposed moral code for all humanity begins to replace the gospel of Jesus Christ? In Episode 965 of The Smith and Rowland Show, Alan Smith and Jeff Rowland examine the Noahide Laws, Noahidism, and the pledge associated with the modern Noahide movement. They discuss how these laws are presented as a path to righteousness for Gentiles, why the pledge directs participants toward rabbinic interpretations, and how this framework compares with the biblical teaching of salvation through Jesus Christ. The conversation covers:  * The seven Noahide Laws and their traditional interpretations  * The Noahide pledge and certificate process  * The relationship between Noahide theology, Judaism, Islam, and apostate Christianity  * The role of government courts in enforcing religious law  * The upcoming international Noahide conference in Jerusalem  * The difference between biblical freedom and systems that impose religious requirements  * Why Smith and Rowland believe righteousness cannot come through human laws The hosts also discuss the dangers of replacing the Old and New Testaments with a religious system created through rabbinic interpretation. They compare Noahide law with Sharia law and other systems that claim authority over personal faith, conscience, and freedom. Along the way, the episode includes plenty of the humor and spontaneous conversation that define the show, including a lighthearted discussion about coffee cups, the former Dixie Stampede, and the meaning of true freedom in Christ. Watch the full episode, then consider the central issue for yourself: Can any set of human laws provide righteousness before God, or does salvation come only through Jesus Christ? #NoahideLaws #Noahidism #Christianity #BibleProphecy #TheSmithAndRowlandShow
