Selective Obedience

What happens when we obey God only when it’s convenient? In this episode, we explore the life of Mary, Queen of Scots—not as a historical curiosity, but as a mirror of modern faith. R.J. Rushdoony unpacks how Mary’s tragic downfall stemmed from selective obedience—a pattern of choosing personal desires over God’s law, all while maintaining religious appearances. From royal courts to contemporary churches, the same principle drives spiritual weakness and cultural collapse. Join us as we confront the subtle rebellion in our own hearts and ask: are we truly faithful—or just frequently so?
