Welcome to Come Let Us Reason Together, the podcast from Lenny Esposito and Come Reason Ministries. Here, we dig deeply into ways Christianity shows itself as an intelligent and rational faith. Episodes include topics about faith, ethics, worldview, and philosophy from a distinctly Christian perspective. Join us each week and see just how rational faith can be!
Skeptics will charge that the Bible contains passages that promote slavery, sexism, and genocide. But how can the true God be sexist? How should we understand commands given in the Old Testament? Why didn't God prohibit slavery if it's such an abhorrent practice? In this podcast series, Lenny shows why the charge that the God of the Bible is immoral doesn’t make sense.
Part 1 of 6
The seeming tension of God’s sovereignty versus man’s freedom has offered fertile ground for rich theological discussion. While various solutions have been offered, one underappreciated view is the concept of God drawing upon His Middle Knowledge in ordering the events of the world. In this series, Lenny looks at the solutions the Middle Knowledge position offers, specifically regarding why God allows evil in the world, why evangelism is necessary if God has predestined people to be saved, and how prayer may be efficacious even if the petitioner is praying after the events have been decided.
