My Ethics, Your Ethics, and the Dilemma Between

About this episode

The episode discusses the influence of culture on ethics and the importance of viewing ethics through a biblical lens.

Each of us do and say things because of the culture we grew up in. Is that wrong? No. However, we as God’s children need to look beyond our culture and try to look through other cultures’ glasses. God is not bound to culture, and all of us can be thankful that the Bible is not culturally bound. John 3:16 says: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”
