Is it Truly Good News?

Inclusive Message of Faith Beyond Doctrinal Divides

Live from Salt Lake City, Utah, “Heart of the Matter” with Shawn McCraney delves into the essence of worshiping God in Spirit and Truth. In this episode, Shawn discusses the upcoming event with Dr. Don Preston, an expert in the preterist position, and invites those grappling with doctrinal issues to reach out for support.

Shawn addresses the ongoing debate about the Trinity, emphasizing that discussions often lead to intellectual jousting rather than genuine understanding. He advocates for a faith that allows believers to interpret scripture individually, guided by the Holy Spirit, rather than adhering strictly to taught doctrines like Trinitarianism or Calvinism.

The show highlights the importance of love over knowledge, referencing 1 Corinthians 8:1-2 and Romans 14, which urge believers not to judge one another but to pursue peace and edification. Shawn shares a personal anecdote about gleaning potatoes in Sweden, drawing parallels to God’s inclusive love and the Good News meant for all.

Ultimately, the message is clear: the Good News of Jesus Christ is for everyone, transcending doctrinal divides and emphasizing faith and love as the core of Christianity. Shawn encourages viewers to embrace this inclusive perspective, fostering unity and understanding within the body of Christ.
