The Jury is Still Out

from The Bible as Literature · host The Ephesus School

People who live comfortably look to religion as a source of comfort and stability. They construct their religious worldview as the Pharaohs of old built pyramids of stone: to maintain a self-serving status quo. Nobody living in comfort wants their situation to change. Nobody wants to answer for their sins. Nobody wants to stand before the terrible and dread judgment seat of Christ. That’s why nobody wants to hear what the gospel of Matthew is saying. But whether you hear it or not, truly, truly, I say to you: it still applies.Richard and Fr. Marc discuss Matthew 25:10-13.Episode 383 Matthew 25:10-13; Music:Anguish by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3373-anguishLicense: https://filmmusic.io/standard-license ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
