Episode Overview
- True faith comes from recognising our own limitations and seeking God's mercy.
- The law exposes our sins rather than justifying us.
- External factors like upbringing or education do not determine our righteousness.
- Paul's letters emphasise the internal experience of the law written in our hearts.
- Humility is key to overcoming pride and finding genuine faith.
The law does not give a knowledge of righteousness, but a knowledge of sin.
In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin tackles the challenging concepts of humility versus pride through the lens of Romans Chapter 2. Colin explores how faith-training in the Gospel of Christ can help intercept various addictions, from alcohol and drugs to food and obsessive worry. The discussion revolves around the deeper meanings within Paul's letters, especially focusing on how the law is not just a set of rules but an internal experience written in our hearts.
Colin emphasises that true faith comes from recognising our own limitations and seeking God's mercy rather than relying on our own righteousness or societal status. Colin passionately argues against self-confidence based on external factors like upbringing, education, or even religious rituals such as circumcision. He highlights Paul's point that the law exposes our sins rather than justifying us, urging listeners to abandon their pride and approach God with genuine humility.
Through his engaging and relatable style, Colin breaks down complex theological ideas into understandable insights, making it clear that faith is about internal transformation rather than external appearances. This episode is perfect for anyone grappling with addiction or struggling to understand their place within their faith community. Colin's candid reflections and practical advice provide a roadmap for embracing humility and letting go of false confidence.
By the end of the episode, you'll feel encouraged to reflect on your own journey and seek a deeper connection with God. Don't miss out on this thought-provoking discussion that challenges conventional religious notions and offers a fresh perspective on faith and humility.
