S3 E13 Why God Cannot Sin And Why It Matters

from Biblically Wired Hosted by Barb Ylitalo

Send us Fan Mail We trace a clear line from God’s holiness to our hope, challenging the idea that calling God unable to sin limits Him. John’s eyewitness testimony, the meaning of covenants, and the rainbow as a warrior’s bow reveal why divine light steadies a fearful heart. • God is light with no darkness at all • Why “God cannot sin” safeguards trust • Fear-based theology and its harms • 1 John on confession, fellowship, and truth • The Spirit’s nature never goes dark • Covenants versus contracts and their signs • The rainbow as God’s bow faced away • Hebrew “remember” as action, not recall • Communion as the sign of the new covenant • Anticipating the Abrahamic covenant
