Episode Overview
- Salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ, not through adherence to the law.
- Faith and law are opposites; one cannot rely on both for salvation.
- Struggling with depression or addiction does not make one unworthy of God's love.
- True peace and joy come from trusting in God's promise through Jesus.
- Obedience to the law reveals sin but does not lead to righteousness.
Seek the righteousness of Christ that is given to you by faith, the faith that He gives you.
In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin dives deep into the concept of salvation by faith alone, using the story of Abraham to illustrate his points. He explains that righteousness and salvation come through faith in Jesus Christ, not through adherence to the law. Colin challenges the common belief that obedience to the law is necessary for salvation, arguing instead that faith and law are opposites.
He uses relatable examples, such as struggling with depression or addiction, to show how faith in Jesus can provide comfort and assurance, even when one feels unworthy or miserable. Colin emphasises that true peace and joy come from trusting in God's promise through Jesus, rather than trying to earn salvation through one's own efforts. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of faith and its role in overcoming personal struggles.
