The Explicit Gospel

How far can betrayal go before grace runs out? Ezekiel 16 uses some of the most graphic language in Scripture to portray Israel’s unfaithfulness, but underneath the shocking imagery is a deeply personal picture of covenant love, betrayal, judgment, and ultimately redemption. The guys unpack why Ezekiel speaks so bluntly, what the chapter reveals about the ugliness of sin, and how the judgment Israel deserves ultimately points forward to Christ bearing shame and death in our place. Along the way, they explore Jerusalem’s pagan origins, the meaning of “abomination,” the imagery of God covering His people with a garment, and the danger of simply forgetting what God has done. Plus, the Great Book War pits Celtic spirituality against New Testament Greek, Pastor Dave receives a very squishy gift, and Pastor Bob tackles the difficult question: what happens to babies who die? **SUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS TO THE SHOW HERE** https://millingtonbaptist.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/241/responses/new ***VOTE HERE*** The Great Book War is on!
