Faith without religion.
Exploring Faith, Marriage, and God’s Government
In a recent video, Shawn and Delaney tackled a variety of intriguing questions from their audience, offering insights into faith, relationships, and the nature of divine intervention. One viewer asked if God places people in our paths to aid us or for us to help them. Shawn affirmed this idea, suggesting that God might lead people by the spirit, even if they are unaware of it.
The discussion then shifted to the evolution of the church, with a quote highlighting its transformation from a fellowship centered on Christ to an enterprise in America. While there was no direct question, the hosts found the progression reasonable.
A more contentious topic arose when a viewer questioned the importance of using the name “Yeshua” for Jesus. Shawn explained that while he tries to use the name, he believes imposing such a law leads to judgment and misses the essence of faith.
The conversation also touched on premarital counseling. Shawn expressed that while it can be beneficial, it doesn’t necessarily need to be conducted by a pastor. He emphasized the importance of discussing core beliefs and expectations with someone who shares a similar worldview.
Finally, the hosts addressed whether there is one true faith or church and if God has a government. Shawn argued that true faith must be based on something reliable and trustworthy, and God’s government is the spirit, guiding believers in truth and righteousness.
Throughout the episode, Shawn and Delaney maintained a tone of openness and love, encouraging viewers to explore these topics while respecting differing perspectives.
